Chapter 129: Beautiful Jade Refinement
The little รท said โ Net], the โ little รท said โ Net],
The rhyme of the year is like this, and it is confident.
Dad and eldest brother have guarded the border for many years, and their achievements are proud; The second brother traveled thousands of miles to Rouran, and also persuaded Rouran to ally with the Qi State, and brought Rouran's princess and prince over, which was indispensable; The three of them studied with Junji, and the book they presented greatly enhanced the border defense layout of the Qi State, and they were also geniuses.
No matter what, my father can't watch her kneel with injuries.
But seeing that Yu Wenhao's eyes were already worried, Emperor Qi Xiao's eyes flashed slightly, "That's it, Princess Xuan came in." โ
Nian Yun's posture when he came in was a little funny, like a cripple, Nian Yun looked at Yu Wenhao but grinned, but in that smile, it was a little painful to walk, and the corners of his mouth twitched.
"Ning Xing, your foot injury is so serious, why do you have to make this trip." Emperor Qi Xiaodi can also be regarded as having figured out the character of Nian Yun.
"Because the sons are reluctant to let their husbands be punished by their fathers like this, the sons are distressed." Nian Yun knelt down and spoke bluntly, but this tone was not rude or overstepping, but seemed to be coquettish, which made Emperor Qi Xiao a little surprised, but what was even more shocking was that in front of him, Nian Yun actually called the prince a husband, but when he said this, he was not angry.
Courageous and alert.
Yu Wenhao on the side, his thin lips were pursed, his heart was surging, and his eyes were very complicated.
"Ning Xing, do you know why I punished the prince?"
"Erchen knows that the queen mother has already told Erchen everything." Nian Yun pursed her lips, "My father is angry because of his husband's kindness to his sons, but he is a person who doesn't love his wife and family, how can he love the people and the country, so his sons want to say a word for their husband." โ
If it weren't for Emperor Qi Xiao's preparation, I am afraid that he would be speechless.
Emperor Qi Xiao said with deep eyes, "It's good to love your wife and family, but it's not a good thing for a future emperor to love too much." โ
"My father was afraid that the matter of King Yu's concubine would happen again, but his sons thought that there were two things different from that of King Yu. The husband is wise, has always followed the rules and fulfilled his duties, and will not be easily confused by beauty, and over the years, the father and the courtiers should be obvious to all. Nian Yun spoke, and Emperor Qi Xiao frowned slightly.
It is indeed obvious to all, even the palace maid has to pick and choose everything, and at first I thought he didn't like it, but now it seems that it is more like he is waiting for someone.
"And then?"
"Secondly, Ji Ji is a beautiful concubine, beautiful and unparalleled, but also vain and exaggerated, the son thinks that he is not as beautiful as Ji Ji, and he can't do anything bad for the country, and the son has been taught by his father and mother since he was a child, everything is important to the Qi country, and the people are safe, and he will not do the things of the husband and the king." It's not that Nian Yun is boasting, but she really divides the weight, saying that Nian Yun took out a piece of paper from her arms, "Erchen knows that the person he marries has a noble status, and his husband is the future son of heaven, so Erchen is also prepared, and he will definitely not become a burden to his husband." โ
Hearing the word cumbersome, Yu Wenhao's five fingers were clenched tightly, and his eyes were firmly fixed on the piece of paper that Nian Yun presented to Emperor Qi Xiao.
Emperor Qi Xiao's gaze was very complicated, some were surprised, some were serious, and there was also a touch of appreciation, seeing Nian Yun's back straightened, his eyes looked at him fearlessly, and after a while, he put away the paper and said in a deep voice, "Ning Xing, did you really decide like this?" โ
Nian Yun looked at Emperor Qi Xiao seriously, "A gentleman's words are difficult to chase, and the words on the paper are what Ning Xing thinks, and he doesn't dare to deceive at all." โ
It's about the hardness of the year's rhyme, which makes it impossible to doubt half a point.
After a while, Emperor Qi Xiao said in a deep voice, "Ning Xing, remember your words." โ
"Ning Xing, don't dare to forget." Nian Yun nodded solemnly.
Emperor Qi Xiao glanced at his son, frowned, and said, "You don't have to kneel, you all go back." โ
"Thank you, father." Yu Wenhao frowned, a little strange, but still got up and stretched out his hand towards Nian Yun to help her up.
Nian Yun just walked badly, and now his ankle hurts even more, it was originally two or three days, but this toss is estimated to be half a month. The whole person is almost supported on Yu Wenhao's body, although Yu Wenhao has not eaten or drunk for a day and a night, he still has this strength.
Not long after Nian Yun and Yu Wenhao left, the queen also entered the imperial study, looked at the pensive Emperor Qi Xiao, and said worriedly, "Your Majesty, how is it?" โ
"That's very good...... Emperor Qi Xiao thought for a moment and said.
The queen frowned, "But ......"
Emperor Qi Xiao took the page written by Nian Yun and handed it to the queen, "Not long after you left the East Palace, she wrote this thing." Whether it's appeasement or coping, it's not something that ordinary people can deal with. โ
The queen looked at it seriously, and the previous one was to write a new year's rhyme and be willing to learn and grow up with the prince, and she was willing to try if a man could learn.
The latter sentence, however, is.
If the retainers are concubines and are shackled by the enemy country, they will kill themselves in front of the people, saying that the enemy country is not ashamed, so as to inspire the king of Yu.
"This, this is just talking, who knows ......" a piece of paper, how to believe? Before life and death, who can say that they are really fearless.
"Did she contradict you?"
"Yes." The queen returned.
Emperor Qi Xiao pondered, "If you leave the East Palace with your front foot, Ning Xing with your back foot can come to appease me, and you still say such a remark, how dare an ordinary woman do this." โ
"Is the emperor saying that Ning Xing is like this, not in accordance with the rules?" The queen frowned.
Emperor Qi Xiao frowned, "Do you still remember Empress Jingren?" โ
Empress Jingren, the founder of the Qi Kingdom, one of the emperors of the ancestors, has never been shown to the public.
Because when Emperor Zu's great cause was not completed, Empress Jingren was gone, and it was Emperor Zu who posthumously crowned Empress Jingren after the founding of the country. Regarding this Empress Jingren, there was little limelight at that time, and even overwhelmed Emperor Zu. There is a small scroll in the royal family, which was written by the Emperor Zu himself, and it is not passed on, and it is written that the Emperor Zu remembers Empress Jingren.
Empress Jingren, born in the den of bandits, although she was born lowly, she was righteous in her bones, and she became acquainted with Emperor Zu because of her long line of robbing the rich and helping the poor. At that time, the ancestor emperor was the prince of the previous dynasty with a different surname, and was suspicious of the king of the previous dynasty, and suffered himself, so he rebelled, this Jingren Empress can know what the ancestor thinks, and give advice for it, and even disguise himself as a man for the ancestor emperor, fight on the battlefield, praise people, the limelight has a great influence over the ancestor emperor's posture, at that time, it was rumored that the ancestor emperor and the queen Jingren were estranged because of this, but the queen Jingren still did not change, and wanted to make a knife for the ancestor emperor until the queen Jingren died on the battlefield.
In Emperor Zu's codex, the nostalgia for Empress Jingren is very strong, but more is guilt, reluctance, and pain.
But after Emperor Zu established the country, he said casually, that is, women are weak, and De Jong is the head of the family. Therefore, although the Qi State is still martial, women are not skilled in martial arts, so they turn to female red women. Originally, the world thought that Emperor Zu didn't like women to be too strong, but after reading Emperor Zu's codex, Emperor Qi Xiao understood that Emperor Zu regretted that he let Empress Jingren be the general, put her in danger, and let her leave him early.
As for why the ancestral system makes the king not be favored alone and not indulge in women, I am afraid that the ancestral emperor has tasted it and knows that the love of children has a great impact on the emperor, so it will be so stipulated.
Hearing Emperor Qi Xiao's mention of this, the queen's heart tightened, and she looked at Emperor Qi Xiao in surprise, "Then the emperor punished the prince today, and asked the concubine to inform Ning Xing, is the emperor ...... Test Ningxing? โ
Emperor Qi Xiao nodded, one emperor and one queen is the first time in the history of Qi that the harem has done this, although it was mentioned by the prince, but from Ning Xing to the present, the prince has put Ning Xing in the East Palace like a child, and he has not grown at all, but whether it is the last time he cut the domain, or this time to appease him, it shows that if Ning Xing is a man, he must be a man-made material, know the scale, figure out the hearts of the people, and know the bottom line.
Even if she is willful, this is within the scope of her willfulness, and she can fight against the queen for the prince, which shows that the prince is not in a low position in her heart. Since the prince has made up his mind to be an emperor and a queen, then Ning Xing naturally has to be qualified to sit in such a position, the prince just wants to raise Ning Xing obediently, which is a pity, so he can only come as a father.
"Nian Sizhong loves young girls, and she has always been misbeneficial, but I look at it, Ning Xing is a good seedling." Emperor Qi Xiao's eyes sank, "Good jade still needs to be refined, so I think about it...... The weakness has become a weakness, it is better to sharpen it into a sharp and piercing bone. โ
"This ......" the queen was stunned, then wouldn't this even the rule that concubines are not allowed to interfere in politics have to be abolished, "if the officials know......"
"With the prince's attitude towards Ning Xing, how could he be willing to let Ning Xing be on the cusp." Emperor Qi Xiao understands his son, "You still don't know the character of the prince?" If we force him to take a concubine, he is only afraid that he will be able to say it and let Xu'er do such a thing as this prince. โ
Speaking of which, the first emperor established the ancestral system, only the eldest son can be established as the prince, although the battle for the heir was avoided, but the successive princes will also lose their ambitions, just like him, being born as a prince has its responsibilities, everything is inevitable, there is nothing to expect, and there is nothing to change.
So, no ambition.
The Empress was silent.
Suddenly remembered Nian Yun's words again, for a long time, the bottom of his eyes was relieved, it turned out that she was the only one who couldn't see clearly, the emperor already knew what the prince wanted to do, but she, a mother, was still entangled with the ancestral system and palace rules.
Is...... Amusing.
"Only if Ning Xing understands more, can she be a good queen and let the prince live up to the rules of this emperor and queen."
"Concubines, but by the emperor's orders."
Emperor Qi Xiao pondered for a while, "This year's sacrifice summons the vassal kings to return to Beijing for a big sacrifice. I have something important to discuss with the vassal kings. โ
Every year, the palace will carry out sacrifices, the sacrifice will be smooth in the coming year, the last big sacrifice, or the first king to drive out on the expedition. When the first king and Tuyuhun died in a battle, it was the king of Fenyang who signed a peace treaty with Tuyuhun and Qi on behalf of the first king, although Tuyuhun tried for many years, but never violated the treaty, but this peace treaty was in the hands of the king of Fenyang, the king of Fenyang said that this was a verbal agreement, and there was no actual treaty, that is, the king of Fenyang refused to hand over the peace treaty, so he only thought that the king of Fenyang would be able to settle down in one day.
It's just that now there are internal and external troubles, and it just so happens that there are so many talents who can be used, and the matter of cutting the feudal domain was mentioned earlier, so it's okay.
"Yes, the concubine will order it first, and let the people of the Internal Affairs Office prepare slowly, I don't know when the emperor will give the order." The queen asked.
"Let's go through a while." Emperor Qi Xiao spoke.
