217. There was no news at all
After Emperor Wang's anger passed, he suddenly remembered something with a spark of electrobide in his head: "Are they sure that Princess Kexin is willing to marry that person?" β
Gonggong Zheng nodded solemnly. Pro, Baidu search eye & fast, a large number of free looks. The spies who finally rushed to Yue Guo found the whereabouts of Princess Kexin, but learned that she had married three days ago, married to a person surnamed Ge, and could not find out the origin of that person at all, only knew that he was doing business in Ho City, Ho Cheng had a shop and a house, and the family wealth was extremely rich, and the rest was unknown.
Emperor Wangdi lost his beloved imperial sister Xiaoyu, but after finding it, she had married someone who didn't know the details, a dignified princess just got married, how could she not be angry?
Seeing that his expression was different, he seemed to have another hidden secret, so he quickly replied: "Yes, the old slave asked again and again, they said that on the third day of the wedding of Princess Kexin, she traveled hand in hand with the new clothes of the same color as that person, and her expression was extremely affectionate, and she should be willing to marry in the past, but unfortunately I am afraid that they will find out that they can't take pictures, otherwise it will be relieved for the emperor to take a look." β
Emperor Wang's heart gradually understood: "You said that person's surname is Ge Mingpei? is a beautiful boy in his twenties. And it looks extravagant? β
"Yes, there's nothing wrong with that."
Emperor Wang breathed a sigh of relief, and his expression was full of emotion: "I know who he is, he is Ren Pei, the third prince of Zheng Guo, and Ge is his mother's surname." After the fall of Zheng Guo, he escaped a catastrophe due to his travels but did not know what happened, and it is very likely that he changed his name to Ge Pei in order to avoid disaster. If this is the case, Xiaoyu will be able to rely on him for life if he marries him. β
Gonggong Zheng stammered: "So that's the case?" It's just that how does the emperor decide? β
Emperor Wang's mood was completely relaxed, and he no longer worried about Xiaoyu.
"After the fall of Zheng Guo, the whereabouts of the three princes are unknown, although there is a marriage contract, there is nothing to do, I am afraid of missing the life of Princess Kexin, and once proposed to choose another son of the family as a good son-in-law for her in the court, she refused, saying that the three princes of Zheng Guo were set by the emperor and her biological parents and personally selected husbands, she will not marry, if the three princes have not been found, she will not marry for life. The only one who can make her willing to leave the palace and marry willingly is Ren Pei, the third prince of Zheng Guo, now known as Ge Pei! β
Gonggong Zheng has not yet understood from the shock: "How did Princess Kexin get in touch with the third prince of Zheng Guo?" I've never seen him, how can I think he's the third prince of Zheng Guo? β
"I guess that although Princess Kexin's marriage was made by the emperor, she is the only daughter of my uncle, King Bei, and my uncle and aunt must have thought about Ge Pei's character a long time ago, and I heard that they had met in private, and it was likely that there were tokens and photos to give away. Maybe this token and photo are the proof that Xiaoyu recognized him. β
Gonggong Zheng finally figured out what happened: "What the emperor said is very right. Back then, when the Beiwang family went to the fiefdom and became a vassal, the first king was not worried about him, so he took Princess Kexin into the palace to raise him. Later, the queen mother passed her birthday, the king of the north and the princess came to pay respects, and the queen mother had permission to see the princess Kexin, at that time the princess was already engaged, maybe they met the three princes of Zheng Guo before coming to Beijing and left tokens, but unfortunately they died one after another after returning to the fiefdom. β
After Zheng Gonggong finished speaking, he saw that Emperor Wang's expression was very uncomfortable, and he seemed to mention a very painful past, so he remembered that his uncle and nephew had a very good relationship when the king of the north was alive, and secretly blamed himself for mentioning his sadness, so he changed the topic and said: "The emperor said to the outside world that the princess Kexin went out of the palace to pray for the blessing and filial piety of her biological parents, the king of the north and the princess for a year, this can only be concealed for a while, and it cannot be concealed for a lifetime, and the emperor should have thought of a countermeasure earlier." β
"It's okay, I have my own plans."
Seeing that he seemed to be tired, Gonggong Zheng said goodbye and wanted to resign.
Emperor Wangdi let out a long sigh, his eyebrows full of worry and puzzlement: "I thought that if I found Xiaoyu, I would be able to find Lan Cairen, but who knew that she still had no news." Do you say that Lan Cairen left the palace or not because Ge Pei did it? If not, who else has the power to take her? If so, how did they get connected? Ge Pei has become a slave of the country, and he must do everything possible to hide his whereabouts. Is it easy for ordinary people to find? β
After a while, he said to himself: "But maybe, maybe Ge Pei found the secret passage from outside the palace and met Lan Cairen in order to find out the news of Princess Kexin, and then he contacted Princess Kexin and took them out of the palace twice, maybe it was Lan Cairen who discovered the secret passage from the inside, so he went out of the palace, but he met Ge Pei by chance, no matter what the reason, it is always related to that secret road." β
Gonggong Zheng nodded in admiration: "What the emperor said is very reasonable, Lan Cairen and Princess Kexin have a very good personal relationship, and the old slave guessed that Lan Cairen's exit from the palace must have been done by Gongzi Ge." However, the strange thing is that the group of spies stared at Ge Gongzi and Princess Kexin for several days, and did not find the slightest trace of Lan Cairen's whereabouts, nor did they find that they had any contact with the outside world. β
Emperor Wangdi smiled softly: "What's so strange about this? Ge Pei is a man who has lost his country, and he must be very cautious when hiding in Tibet. It's good that he kidnapped the princess and said that it was always a family affair set by the elders, and even I couldn't cure his crimes. If he really abducted Lan Cairen, it would be a capital crime, maybe he was still worried that I would execute Lan Cairen after I found her, of course, he had to hide it in every possible way, I guessed that with his caution, he would not have any contact with Lan Cairen during this time, and this is also a hurry, you just have to tell the spies to keep an eye on it, and one day there will be clues. β
Gonggong Zheng responded, and asked cautiously: "After Gongzi Ge and Princess Kexin got married, he was a righteous concubine, and it was better to be a rich idler under the protection of the emperor, why should he live a life of hidden names?" β
Emperor Wangzhi sighed: "They are afraid that it will be difficult for me to do it!" But. With his wealth and ability, I don't have to worry about Xiaoyu anymore, and I am worthy of my uncle, you let the spies keep an eye on you, don't let Ge Pei's rivals find them and affect their lives! β
After a while, he said, "Go and invite the queen mother to come over." β
When Queen Gui heard about it, of course she understood what was going on, so she hurriedly sat down in front of the dressing table and asked her most trusted Lin Ruoruo to sort out her makeup.
Her mood is excellent, when the palace is not favored, she is the most beautiful, her scenery no longer needs the emperor's favor to complete, those women who compete with her for favor in addition to endless wasted years, what is left?
"Seeing that she is about to choose a concubine for the prince, Niangniang not only does not show her old age, but is more radiant and full of spirit."
Lin Ruoruo quickly took off the phoenix dress with red color embroidery and gold trim for Queen Gui, changed into an elegant and pleasant and luxurious lilac homely dress, and then took off the nine phoenix hairpins with precious stones and pearls on the queen's head, and only inserted a white hosta inlaid with white diamonds, and nodded with satisfaction: "The phoenix hairpin is worn for the harem Liwei, and this white hosta is the most suitable for seeing the emperor." β
Empress Gui watched with satisfaction that she had changed from luxurious and dignified to gentle and amiable under Lin Ruoruo's care, and a bold thought came to her mind, if there was such a wonderful and intelligent person serving by her son's side, what else was there to worry about?
"Ruoruo, this palace remembers that you came from a scholarly family. Only three years older than the crown prince? β
Ruoruo looked at the queen's suddenly glowing eyes, and was a little flustered, so she quickly lowered her head and said yes.
The queen looked at her for a moment, and then said: "This palace has just discovered that you are not only getting older and more outstanding, but also more and more temperamental, intelligent and clever, very comparable, in the end, it is not in vain to cultivate with this palace." Such a wonderful person, if he keeps you, and he is afraid that he will miss your life, if he marries you out of the palace. The palace is reluctant. In this way, the palace has given the emperor, and before the prince's wedding, I will accept you to serve Liangyuan in the past. β
Prince Liangyuan? That's only two levels worse than the side concubine, if the prince ascends the throne in the future, it is the person who wants to be named a third-grade noble concubine, and the concubine will not be just around the corner in the future? How many concubines can't seal this position in their lifetime, and they are so good? However, although the prince has grown into a young man, he is three years younger than himself!
Lin Ruoruo was shocked and ashamed, her pretty face instantly turned red, she didn't know how to answer for a while, and she didn't have time to think about it, so she snorted and said, "But the slave maid still has to serve the queen's mother, and besides, she is three years older than the prince." β
Empress Gui smiled hehehe: "This palace is afraid that the children's family will not be at ease after the prince's wedding, so I asked you to go over to take charge of the palace." Besides, after becoming the crown prince, can you replace the prince to honor the palace? What are you afraid of as a junior year old? Haven't you heard that the female junior holds the gold brick? I've heard of this palace, and now it's popular to marry sisters and brothers outside the palace, and there are many big ones who are ten or eight years old! β
After saying that, Lin Ruoruo was ashamed, took a few jade photos, and went to Qilong Hall with a happy face, and went to report to Emperor Wangdi that he had initially decided to be the crown princess during this time.
Emperor Wangdi looked at the five photos of the girl on the case, although she was still young, she looked like a noble woman with an excellent family background, which showed that the queen really put her heart into it.
After saying the hard work, I listened to the queen introduce the basic situation and family history of these women one by one, picked up one of them, and pointed to the woman with a bright and generous appearance and a heroic spirit in her eyebrows: "You said she is Wei Zixu's eldest daughter?" That's her, the person who is the crown princess can't be an ordinary weak woman. Wei Zixu was originally a Shangzhu country, and after retiring, he was named a first-class duke, and he was very insightful in doing things, and he had a very high prestige in the court but was low-key, and it would be better to assist the emperor in the future! β
The queen was also very satisfied when she heard this, and she chose the concubine for her son, she tried her best, and the one she liked the most was Wei Zixu's eldest daughter. Rejoice at the same time. I am also faintly uneasy in my heart, the emperor is in his youth, and this country must not sit for at least a few more decades, so how can I talk about assisting the emperor now?
Just in doubt, thinking of Lin Ruoruo, he said tentatively: "The prince's wedding, it is said that two side concubines will be accepted at the same time, who is the emperor's choice?" And three months before the wedding, you have to choose an older and sensible person in the palace to serve, so that you can assist the crown princess in managing the East Palace in the future, who can the emperor choose? β
Emperor Wangdi smiled softly: "I'm afraid that these are already candidates in the queen's heart, right?" I believe in your vision, so let it be up to you. As long as the affairs in the harem are not very important, the queen is in charge, and if you really can't make up your mind, you can discuss with the queen mother, and I want to rest. β
took over the power so easily, Queen Gui was happy and a little unpredictable at the same time: how could it be as if she was explaining the future?
