As soon as Nanling Mo and Mei Qian got into the carriage back home, they instantly breathed a sigh of relief. At this time, Nanling Mo found that her underwear was soaked.

At this time, there were only two people in the imperial study, the emperor and the king of Zhennan, Nanshen. The other idlers in the imperial study retreated to wait outside the imperial study. Nanshen, the king of Zhennan, knelt down on one leg and said: "Your Majesty, the year of the minister is close to the year of the mandate of heaven, and he often feels that he is not able to control the army of 500,000 in his hands......

Yun Tianfeng stood up excitedly after hearing this, "Half of the military power?!" Then he felt that his behavior was out of shape, and he sat down slowly, cleared his throat and said, "King Zhennan's words are wrong, you are in the prime of life, why do you say this?" ”

"Your Majesty, the ministers have been fighting for many years, and the new injuries and old troubles are superimposed, and he is indeed in charge of an army of 500,000 people, and he occasionally feels that he has more than enough heart but not enough strength. Therefore, the old minister wanted to hand over half of the military power to the emperor, and asked the emperor to select capable generals and ministers to lead the army of 250,000 in the south. As he spoke, King Zhennan took out half of the talisman and respectfully placed it on the imperial case, saying: "Your Majesty, this is half of the talisman, which can mobilize 250,000 troops in the south, and please understand the old minister's heart to serve the country...... Your Majesty, the minister's mother is seventy-four years old this year, and now she just wants to serve her old mother with peace of mind, and I ask Your Majesty to fulfill it. ”

Yun Tianfeng pondered for a moment and said, "That's it, I accept this half of the talisman." But King Zhennan, you are still in the prime of life, and you can serve my Dayan Kingdom for a few more decades...... In the past, you only stayed in Beijing for three months, and after the first month, you had to be stationed in the south, but now you are in Beijing for half a year and half a year in the south! It is absolutely impossible to do without you in the southern army, and you don't need to shirk this matter anymore King Zhennan. ”

Then Yun Tianfeng said: "King Zhennan, I heard that the county lord of Ren'an will be in time next month. According to the etiquette system, it is time to give a fief. In that case, I will grant Ringan County and the seven counties below it to Ringan as a fief in the south. Also, your side concubine Zhang has not had an edict so far, and I was negligent before, so I gave her the edict of Mrs. Cong's second grade, and your eldest daughter will be named the county lord of Congsanpin Linlang! ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Nan Shen breathed a sigh of relief in his heart and withdrew from the imperial study.

On that day, the emperor's grace to the Zhennan Wangfu spread throughout the capital, and the Zhennan Wangfu once again became the center of public opinion.

This Dayan Kingdom has extremely strict regulations on the female dependents of princes and marquises, and generally the emperor's uncle is a super prince, a brother is a first-grade prince, and the heir is a second-rank prince, and there can be at most two edicts among the female dependents in their backyard. As for the family of powerful ministers, their backyard ladies can only have one lady at most. For example, Prime Minister Zuo is an official of the imperial court, and his title can be given to his mother or to his wife, if he is given to his mother, then his wife has no rank, and if there is no special purpose, he cannot enter and leave the palace and participate in various royal banquets such as palace banquets. Unless it is a powerful minister who is very valued by the emperor, or a meritorious person who has made great contributions to the imperial court, the emperor will be rewarded with additional grace. For example, in Zhennan Palace, in addition to the deceased princess Jiang is a first-class lady, according to the etiquette system, there can be no more Mrs. Decree, this time the emperor specially rewarded Zhang's family as Mrs. from the second grade.

In addition, there are children, generally only the children of the descendants will be named the prince of the county, and the children of the concubine are not divided into any seals, and Nanling Mei is the county lord who is still the county lord of Sanpin Linlang this time, and the status is much higher than that of the county lord without the title.

Among the second-grade county lords, those who have fiefs are the second-rank county lords, and their status is respected, but in fact, they are only one level lower than the princes who have fiefs in the first grade. For example, Yun Qianxue, the fifth daughter of the first emperor and queen, was titled Princess Zhengyipin Rongzhen, and her fief was Xinzhou; For example, the sister of the current emperor Xiping, the fourth daughter of the first emperor, Princess Jinghui, is now renamed Princess Ronghui, who was originally only from the princess of Yipin, and after Emperor Xiping ascended the throne, he gave Chen County as a fief. But the status of the princess of the first rank without a fief is really inferior to the county lord who has a fief in the second grade.

Everyone is looking at the imperial grace of the Zhennan Wangfu, but few people know how much it cost the Zhennan King to get it.

The decree of the palace to come to the canonization was transmitted to the palace on the second day after Nanling Mo left the palace. After Garn's will arrived at the Zhennan Palace, in addition to knowing that the King of Zhennan and the old princess were not alarmed, and the prince and the Lord of Ren'an were also like sinking water, everyone in the rest of the mansion was as excited as the New Year, and the Zhang family even added three months of moon silver to the people in the palace as a reward.

Nanling Mei was even more excited, and after receiving the will and reward, she returned to Tangli Ju and couldn't wait to promote the big girl around her from two to four. The original second-class maids Peach and Cuilou were promoted to first-class maids and renamed as Jianqiu and Bangdong. Since then, the big girl around Nanling Mei has been painting spring, embroidering summer, cutting autumn and saving winter. Because after giving the county lord, the palace sent the county lord's uniform, jewelry and examples, and the house also increased Nanlingmei's monthly money by half, and also customized new jewelry for her, and sent new satin.

Nanling Mo was in the study of King Nanshen of Zhennan, looking at King Zhennan, and couldn't tell what it was like in his heart. She said slowly, "Father...... Can you tell your daughter what you paid for these rewards? ”

"What is the price, it's just that the emperor has compassion for his father's assistant Nanjing for so many years, and he hereby gratitude!" Nan Shen said with a sloppy look.

"Father, my daughter has grown up, not a three-year-old ignorant child...... Nan Lingmo analyzed, "Previously, the Queen Mother announced that her daughter entered the palace, and the emperor also came, and then the emperor saw his daughter's face and went back. "Another day later, the will to give the seal spread all over the house, and you still say that it is the emperor's special grace?!"

King Zhennan sighed, and refused to reveal half of his true feelings, but stepped forward, touched Nanling Mo's hair, stroked her face, and muttered: "Mo'er, you look more and more like your mother......"

Then he lowered his hand, turned his back to Nan Lingmo and said, "You go out, my father still has a lot of government affairs to deal with." ”

Nanling Mo saw that King Zhennan resolutely refused to tell the truth, so he had no choice but to retreat.

Lingmo Temple

This has been entering the palace for several days, and it is canonizing the holy decree, and the news about King Yun that came from the dark wind the day before entering the palace Nanling Mo has been put in the pillow and has not had time to take it out. It was so delayed that even she almost forgot about it. She went back to her inner courtyard, and had a terrible headache thinking about these things, and as soon as she arrived in the back room, she fell headlong on the bed, but she happened to touch the hard object in the pillow, and then she remembered that there was still news from the dark wind and did not read it.

She closed her eyes to calm herself, and after a cup of tea, Nan Lingmo, who was refreshed, took out the letter from the pillow, got up and sat down at the desk, and read it carefully. A quarter of an hour later, Nan Lingmo put the letter paper in his hand on the charcoal brazier and burned it. Xin said, "It seems that this Yun Tianhong has not had a good time in the past few years, otherwise how could he have crippled legs?" According to his injury, if he was properly healed, it would never be possible for his legs to be crippled and unable to walk. As a result, the old guys in the hospital actually said that they couldn't be treated, I really don't know if it's because of poor medical skills or other reasons. ’

But also, if he is as brave and good at fighting as before, I am afraid that it will be difficult to end up safely now. Although he is now a prince and has no real power, he is still alive and well. Nan Lingmo looked at the flames that suddenly grew bigger and thought to herself, "If you wait for the marriage decree to be announced, maybe ...... You can make a good deal with him. ’

"County Lord," Mama Qian came in and said, "The old princess came to spread the word, saying that tomorrow is the winter solstice, and dinner will be used in Rongjin Hall, first, to catch the wind and wash the dust for the prince to return to the palace, and secondly, to celebrate the canonization of everyone in the palace today." Tomorrow, the ancestral hall will be opened to comfort the ancestors and ancestors, and the county lord will wait for the ancestors outside the ancestral hall tomorrow. ”

"Okay, the county lord knows." Nan Lingmo said, "Mama, go to Jian Lingxuan to spread the word, saying that the county lord is going to go to the eldest brother's courtyard for dinner at the right time, and then go to prepare plum blossom drunk, the county lord and the eldest brother enjoy the snow and plum blossoms at night, and you also let the small kitchen prepare some dishes." ”

Mama Qian should take a look at it and leak more, there is less than an hour left before the time of Youzheng, the time is in a hurry, Mama Qian personally went down to urge everyone to prepare dinner.

Jian Lingxuan

"Sister, you don't come to the eldest brother's courtyard for dinner just to enjoy the plum blossoms and snow at night, right?!" Nanling Xiao asked with a smile, "Sister, are you because of today's canonization?" ”

"Big brother, you said that if one day, the world has changed, can we still talk together happily like today?" Nanling Mo said pointedly.

"Sister!" Nanling Xiao's face changed, and his breath became rapid, "Cough cough, cough cough," the rapid cough made his pale face turn red, and the green tendons on his head burst out. Nanling Mo was so frightened that he hurriedly checked his pulse, took out a golden needle and pricked a few acupuncture points on his hand, and Yanchuan handed him tea and beat his back......

When Nanling Xiao eased up, Nanling Mo didn't dare to say what he just said. Nanling Xiao looked at her fixedly, and finally sighed and said, "Sister, my father is doing this to protect our Zhennan Palace, in order to protect you!" ”

When Nan Lingmo heard this, she had mixed feelings, how could she not understand the intentions of King Zhennan? Just like when she was Li Yunqing in her previous life, even if the old prince was unhappy, when she insisted on marrying Yun Tianfeng, who was still the king of Ping, the Zhenguo Mansion had to do its best to keep her safe, but in the end, it ended up like that. In this life, she really can't repeat the mistakes of the past.

"Big brother, think about the Zhenguo Mansion! My sister heard that Queen Wushuang also did her best for that one back then, but in the end? Isn't it a rabbit dead dog cooking? Nan Lingmo said in a low voice, "Does my brother think that if my father does this now, he will be able to save our Zhennan Palace?" ”

"Sister," Nanling Xiao hurriedly interrupted Nanling Mo's words, "The Holy One doesn't let people talk about this matter, if people hear it, they will be killed." Are there still fewer people pleading for that thing? Kill the head of the head, go to prison of the jail, you must not provoke unnecessary gossip, prison disaster! ”

"But if one day this day changes, and the loyal and martyred ministers don't need to be so diligent and trembling, they only focus on protecting their families and defending the country, for the sake of the Great Yan Country, then ......"

Nanling Xiao was surprised by Nanling Mo's words, and suddenly found that he couldn't see through his sister more and more, "In the past, I always said that you grew up and grew up, but the eldest brother always felt that you were still a little girl, and now when I hear you talk about this, I know that I look down on you after all." Nanling Xiao was happy and bitter in his heart, and he smiled reluctantly: "Now I know that my sister has really grown up, has her own knowledge, and can share her father's worries......"

After the meal, the two talked some more, and Nan Lingmo said goodbye and went back. Nanling Xiao looked at her departing figure, and her heart was extremely sour. If it weren't for being so useless, why would Mo'er's daughter's family need to worry so much about the future of the palace? A girl's carefree life should be before she leaves the house. But what Mo'er said is right, the birds are good and the bow is hidden, and it is better to prevent problems as soon as possible......

This night, several of the main owners in the house didn't sleep well......

Cloud King's Mansion

"Master, there is news from the sixth master that the grace reward of the Zhennan Wangfu is because the Zhennan King handed over half of the military power to the emperor, probably to ensure that his daughter does not enter the palace as a concubine. I heard that the time when the prince proposed to hand over the right to the army happened to be the time when the county lord met the queen mother in Shoukang Palace. "Luoqiu came to report.

"Sure enough, as I expected," Yun Tianhong sneered, "Luoqiu, get ready, let's enter the palace tomorrow." ”
