Chapter 120: Catching the Week (1)
Chu Da didn't say anything, and hurriedly bowed to the leader's order, and General Zhang was full of distress on the side.
After dispersing the court meeting, Tuoba Hong returned to Jianzhang Palace in a depressed mood. According to his plan, the Twelve Cities of Youyun should be guarded by the King of Xiliang, which is not only the second line of defense to prevent the defeat of the front, but also to deter the enemy army and reassure the people. If Changning's marriage had gone well, the king of Xiliang would have taken the initiative to invite Ying to the front line, but the current situation is that the king of Xiliang guarding his fief is like an old rich man holding a golden basin, and he is too lazy to take care of other places.
He had no choice but to send General Chu to this position. After returning to the palace, he thought about it for a while, and then remembered something, so he ordered Chu Huasheng, who was in charge of Shende Hall, to be released, and let her return to Xianfu Palace to live temporarily, but she was still grounded.
This will made Lin Yuan stunned for a long time, and then when he went to deliver a meal to the emperor, he happened to see the right prime minister. She changed into Hua Chengyi's usual clothes and quietly followed him to the palace gate, in a remote corner of the palace wall, she stood up to stop him, and asked urgently: "Is there any movement in the Chu family?" ”
Prime Minister Right was taken aback when he saw Lin Yuan's appearance, and then recognized it. Lin Yuan said again: "Hurry up and answer my words!" ”
"Yes!" The right prime minister hurriedly told her everything that happened in the court today, and said with a smile: "Niangniang, such a smart woman, will she still be afraid of the daughter of the Chu family." ”
Lin Yuan just smiled bitterly and glanced at Prime Minister You: "Do you think I have a very easy life in the harem!" I need your help. ”
"What are you talking about! It's Weichen who wants to ask for Niangniang. Although the right prime minister's words were respectful, his voice was sarcastic. In fact, although he appreciated Lin Yuan and was willing to cooperate with her, he didn't like this woman's character very much. He is in a high position, how can he be suppressed and controlled by a woman.
"If you have any requests, please tell me." Lin Yuan looked at the light in his eyes, smiled lightly and whispered, "In a few days, adults will receive a surprise, I hope you can be satisfied." Then he turned and left.
On the way back to the palace, they were thinking about Chu Huashang. Although she successfully suppressed Concubine Jing, she did not expect the butterfly effect to be very strong, Changning did not marry, causing the king of Xiliang to refuse to be loyal, and the king of Xiliang did not give his strength to cause the front line to be blocked, and then Tuoba Hong sent General Chu to the top, and finally Chu Huashang in the harem was released from the Shende Hall.
She wailed, Chu Huashang had been locked up for almost a year, why didn't she die inside! I heard that the life in Shende Hall was not much better than that of the cold palace, and the subordinates made it difficult and bullied, and they couldn't even eat hot food, and the first emperor's concubine Liu Yi committed suicide after being imprisoned for three months......
Although Chu Huashang was still confined to Xianfu Palace and was charged with murdering the prince in Ren's womb, Lin Yuan had no doubt that she could make a comeback. There is hope if you can get out of Shende Hall, Tuoba Hong is a person who is affectionate and misses the old feelings, with Chu Huashang's means, are you afraid that you will be grounded for the rest of your life?
The emperor in Jianzhang Palace was depressed and refused to enter the harem until he went to Lin Yuan's dormitory on Qixi Festival. Lin Yuan knew that he had fire in his heart, so he didn't provoke him, and An An served him for dinner. The atmosphere during the banquet was a little heavy, and Lin Yuan coaxed the emperor and said: "The concubine has made some Wushen benzoin in the past few days, and the craftsmanship is rusty, and the emperor will throw it away if it is not good." ”
Tuoba Hong smiled lightly and said, "You can still make incense?" Well, if you like to play, I'll give it a try. He added: "Yuzhao Palace is estimated to be repaired in two or three months, when do you think you will move over?" ”
Lin Yuan said: "This is not in a hurry, the concubine lives very well in Huayang Palace, and Concubine Jing is a generous person." ”
"Heh, she only has the benefit of generosity." Tuoba Hong was sarcastic, and he was displeased when he thought of Concubine Jing.
Lin Yuan didn't dare to speak again. After the meal, the inner supervisor in front of the palace came in and presented a book of excerpts and said: "This is the concubine in the palace who presented it to the emperor." ”
Tuoba Hong raised his eyes lazily, stretched out his hand to take it, and said to Lin Yuan: "I have seen a lot of this kind of means, and she can't get out of the grounding, so she wrote an excerpt to me to beg." "He was in a really bad mood today, Chu Huashang didn't provoke him, so he gave someone a hat.
Lin Yuan looked at the fold, her eyebrows turned pale, and she knew that Chu Huashang was not a fuel-efficient lamp, so naturally she would not be stupid enough to beg the emperor to let her out. Tuoba Hong opened the fold and took a look, and wanted to throw it away, but suddenly he glanced at it and saw something unusual, and then buried his head in a closer look.
By the time he finished reading, the displeasure on his face had been swept away. He smiled at Lin Yuan and said, "Look at it, although this Chu clan has made mistakes in the past, she is really a wise woman." ”
Lin Yuan knew that nothing good would happen to this Chu Huasheng, so she took the fold and hurriedly swept it, and her chest was already sulking. She had to reluctantly laugh and said to the emperor: "Sister Chu advises the emperor to bring up the matter of marrying the king of Xiliang again? To exchange an emperor for a Yunzhou county, this ......"
"Changning is my flesh and blood, so naturally I can't let Changning marry." Tuoba Hong said with a smile: "But in addition to the emperor, those princes also have daughters. Tian Concubine means that although the Xiliang King and his wife have many concubines, they only have one son-in-law, and they even dare to bully the king for this child, which shows their love for the prince. Since they want the prince to get married, let's send a lady of the prince over in exchange for the submission of the king of Xiliang. ”
Lin Yuan was stunned in her heart, and she had to say that Chu Huashang did have a brain. The king of Xiliang has a dislike with the emperor because of his family affairs, so it is better to threaten the king of Xiliang with his family affairs and let them exchange soldiers and horses for a prince and wife. It's called reverse thinking! Lin Yuan didn't expect this method at first.
A few days later, the emperor really summoned the king of Xiliang into the palace and talked secretly for a long time. However, for the time being, the marriage of the prince of Xiliang has not been announced, after all, even if the emperor has the heart to be a matchmaker, there are still a few who are willing to marry his daughter to a short-lived ghost. And the Xiliang Wang couple loves their children deeply, and their requirements are high, and they are unwilling to give in to those girls who are not from high backgrounds.
Tuoba Hong is not in a hurry, there are many people in the world who sell their daughters for the sake of wealth and wealth, and he believes that with the grace of the royal family, there will be families willing to do this business.
What followed was the will of Concubine Tian to be lifted. That day, Lin Yuan was so angry that she really wanted to drop the cup, and hated that she hadn't been able to think of a way to help the emperor first. But after thinking about it, that Tian Concubine came up with this idea, and she was suspected of interfering in politics. In the past, even if Lin Yuan gave advice to the emperor, he would start with the family affairs of the harem, and would never step on the line of courtiers.
Concubine Tian did this, the emperor was happy for a while, and after a while, I was afraid that she would feel that she had a big heart, and then be dissatisfied. Concubine Tian can be regarded as fighting hard at all costs, at least she can lift the grounding, she is still the master of Xianfu Palace.
A concubine Jing tossed Lin Yuan physically and mentally exhausted, and Chu Huashang killed the saber again, and I don't know what will happen in the future.
In this unquiet summer, the six princes gradually grew up, and the tenth day of the eighth month was the first year old to catch the week.
In ancient times, it was a big deal to catch Zhou, and the common people still held banquets to celebrate, and the royal family had to do a good job. The sixth prince is Tuoba Hong's favorite child, and he ordered the Ministry of Rites and the harem to hold a big ceremony together. I also read that Lin Yuan entered the palace for three years, served the most considerate and sacred, and made great contributions to the birth of a prince in Daqin, so he took advantage of the six princes to catch Zhou's color and decreed that Lin Yuan was promoted to be from the second rank Zhaoyuan.
Since then, Lin Yuan has been a high position that few people in the palace can surpass, and it is cheaper to take care of things.
The arrest of the six princes was personally handled by Lin Yuan. On the first day of the eighth month, the holy car returned to Beijing, and ten days later, I was in a hurry to catch up with the good days of the six princes, when the emperor and the queen mother were present, and even the long-ill Empress Xiao sat out.
Lin Yuan was a little stunned, the concubines often went to Fengyi Palace to serve the sick, and they all knew how appalling Queen Xiao's illness was. Lin Yuan went to serve two days ago, and watched her roll from the bed to the floor in pain, and many palace maids stepped forward and couldn't press it. She came here today?
I can't help but be wary that Queen Xiao is already in the twilight, but she still has her eyes fixed on her and the six princes.
Tuoba Hong often went to dine with the queen, and he also knew what Queen Xiao's illness was, so he couldn't help but persuade her to go back. Xiao Yueyi said with a smile: "The concubine has been stuffy in the house for too long, so it's okay to come out for a walk." Moreover, the concubines have no children of their own, and looking at milk dolls like the fifth prince and the sixth prince, they are also happy. ”
Tuoba Hong's heart sank, knowing that Empress Xiao had always refused to give up on the five princes, and she thought that after she died, she would leave a prince to support the Xiao family, so that even if the Xiao family was disliked by the emperor, it would not be a dead end. Although Tuoba Hong took pity on the queen, his heart was floating, and in the end he still refused to let the queen hold the five princes. Then he said, "Then the queen will sit today." You have to take care of the queen for a good life. ”
Empress Xiao sighed slightly and said more.
A moment later, the concubines and princes of the palace had arrived. Due to the rebuilding of the Jiaotai Palace, the Zhou ceremony of the six princes had to be held in Changle Palace. Lin Yuan placed eight copper tripods planted with big green lotus in the main hall according to the rules of the ancestors, and hung thirty-six thin sheath curtains that reached the sky, and the posture was big, the only deficiency was that Changle Palace burned sandalwood all the year round, and the golden and crimson palace tent carpet was lined with a smell of Buddha incense, which was so incompatible.
Lin Yuan didn't care about these either, she was very curious about the game of catching Zhou, and she was even more curious about what surprise her Xiaoqi would have. A piece of red silk cloth was spread on the long-wool carpet, and hundreds of objects were piled up on it, and when the emperor gave an order, Lin Yuan hugged the six princes.
Unlike a few months ago, when the five princes caught Zhou, Lin Yuan had never given the six princes any training, so she wanted to see what this kid would catch. In fact, the children in the royal family, especially the prince, catching Zhou is a matter that needs to be treated with spirit, and mothers will guide their children countless times before.
