Chapter Forty-Nine: The Red Candle Reflects the Man
Needless to say, the crown princess's canonization ceremony was unprecedentedly grand, and it was comparable to Zheng Jinxuan's time, but it was just a different person.
To go deeper, it is a change of power and a change of power.
The British Duke and the Duke of Qi are not only the founding princes of the same country, but the ancestors are also brothers in the same lineage, and they were very prosperous, among which the British Mansion also had a queen mother and a queen, and the entire Kyoto saw the British Mansion with their necks up.
Gradually, with the change of dynasties, the British government has no support, and the house is even more filthy.
In the past, it was the British Duke who stammered with the Duke of Qi, but now it's okay, it's time to transfer one.
For the selection of the crown princess, Qin Shuang was very fortunate for a while, compared to the filthy British Mansion, the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion didn't know how much cleaner, and she really hoped that Zheng Jinxuan could have a good result.
However, in addition to the canonization of the crown princess today, at the same time, there are two side concubines, but today's excitement only belongs to Xie Danyu alone.
After the cumbersome ceremony, it will be calm, and there are three more masters in the East Palace at once, and the prince looks proud, but he doesn't know how many people are looking forward to it, waiting to see the excitement of the East Palace.
In the Jiaofang Palace, the red candles reflect people, but the Yongning Hall and the Changhua Hall are deserted.
Qin Tian was dressed in a red wedding dress, which looked particularly dazzling under the jumping candlelight, she sat on the bed, her eyes were stunned, as if she had the joy of a bride, but also with a little loneliness and expectation.
I don't know how long I sat there, but I only knew that the red candle, which was half a person high, had been half burned, and the moonlight shone through the dark clouds, which was slightly bleak.
With a squeak, the door of the temple was pushed open, and she only felt as if something was about to burst out of her chest, and her heart was beating so hard that she didn't even know when she stood up, unconscious.
It was her personal maid Nian Xia who came in to marry, and she suddenly sat back on the bed again.
"!" Nian Xia seems to be a little difficult to speak, but Niangniang can't just sit like this all night, she thought about it, and finally said ruthlessly: "Niangniang, the lights in the Jiaofang Palace have been extinguished, His Royal Highness and the Crown Princess have rested, Niangniang should also rest in peace!" ”
There was only silence in her answer.
Nian Xia couldn't help but feel distressed, she still wanted to persuade again, but Qiu Qiu on the side grabbed her, she looked at Qiu Qiu in confusion, but saw Qiu Qiu shaking her head silently.
Niangniang refused to rest, so the two planned to sit with Qin Tian all night.
The night was getting deeper and deeper, and I could only hear the wind blowing outside, and the red candle that was almost burned out suddenly clicked and went out.
Qin Tian got up and stepped down, like a walking corpse, with only a piece of despair left in his eyes.
She had already expected it, and to this day, what is there to be sad about?
"Summer, autumn, waiting for the concubine to change clothes!"
"Yes, sis!" Both of them breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly stepped forward to serve.
In the middle of the night, Song Chengyin casually put on a long robe and came out of the Jiaofang Palace, the ink hair that was casually draped on his shoulders was slightly raised in the breeze, his eyes were dark, and his demeanor was elegant, which made him even more evil.
Personally followed the flying shadow to meet him, and he walked directly to the Changxin Hall without stopping.
The Changxin Hall is the place where he deals with official business on a daily basis, and at this time, there are already several people waiting in the hall, he takes a step with long legs, walks into the hall, and several people see this, and they are busy kneeling and saluting.
sat straight in the chair behind the desk, and before he looked up at the person, he said in a slightly cold tone: "Let's talk about it!" ”
Several people had a tacit understanding, and the leader took the lead in arching his hand, and said solemnly: "Your Highness, Qingzhou Zhizhou originally oriented Tiancheng, but somehow, Xiang Tiancheng suddenly broke his leg, and such a thing should not bother His Highness, but the minister thinks that this is very strange, His Highness should know one or two!" ”
Song Chengyin sighed deeply, moved to a more comfortable position in the chair, and then slowly looked up at several courtiers in the hall, and said faintly: "Needless to say?" was plotted by someone, this leg kept early and late, but it was broken at this time! ”
The few people below were all shivering, and the one who trembled the most was Jiang Zhaoan, the secretary of the Ministry of Officials, who was responsible for this matter, and something went wrong at this time, didn't His Royal Highness the Crown Prince have to make fun of him!
"Now, who can come up with a charter?" Song Chengyin's tone was displeased.
Imperial Doctor Feng Can took a step forward with a smile and said, "Your Highness, Weichen thinks that it is not impossible for Qingzhou, you can take a move to attack the west, first get someone to go over temporarily, and then make the next step!" ”
Song Chengyin didn't even raise his eyes, "This palace has worked so hard to take Qingzhou, but you told me that it is not Qingzhou?" Didn't I waste so much effort in the first place? ”
"That's it!" A few people next to him didn't think it was a big deal, and muttered a few words.
Feng Can was disgusted in his heart, but he still said unhurriedly on his face: "Your Highness is angry, Weichen doesn't mean to give up Qingzhou, but right now, if you still hold on to Qingzhou, I'm afraid the next plan will be difficult to implement, only by transferring the target first and confusing the enemy can it proceed smoothly!" ”
Song Chengyin didn't refute this time, but said another thing, "First send two people to the river, and stabilize the security army to the palace, there has always been bandits over there recently, and none of them can be used, and then let the palace hear that my Dayue army can't even destroy a group of bandits, so you are the only one who asks!" ”
"Yes!"
A few people trembled, and Song Chengyin waved his hand to tell them to retreat.
He beckoned to Feiying, who bowed forward, but he paused for a moment, and finally, his eyes gradually revealed a touch of murderous intent, and his tone gradually became cold, and he whispered two words to Feiying, and Feiying immediately responded and disappeared into the night.
Song Chengyin looked at the empty hall, his elbows propped up on the desk, and his two fingers were gently pressed between his eyebrows.
Outside the hall, the official department, the criminal department, and the military department and the imperial historian went out together, at this time, the palace gate has been keyed, and a few people can only stay in the palace for one night.
The crown princess has been working hard all day, and she can't sleep well at night, and several people have a lot of complaints, but this is in the palace, and they don't dare to talk about it casually, one by one, they can only sigh and go back.
The secretary of the ministry and the secretary of the criminal department walked in the forefront, and Feng Can strode forward and stopped Zou Borui, the secretary of the military department, who was lagging behind.
Zou Borui paused and waited for Feng Can to take two steps.
"Lord Zou!" Feng Can hesitated for a moment and said, "I've heard a little about the security forces deployed by the soldiers, but what is going on with this bandit?" Haven't all the water thieves that appeared before been cleaned up? Why is it coming out again now? It's no wonder that the emperor is furious, and the military department is under the jurisdiction of His Royal Highness, which is a trouble! ”
When Zou Borui heard this, he couldn't help but sigh and said: "There are twists and turns here, where is one or two sentences clear, let's take a step to speak!" Zou Borui looked around, after all, this is the East Palace, and there are Janissaries patrolling from time to time, so it is really inconvenient to speak.
Feng Can stretched out his hand to let Zou Borui go first, Zou Borui was not humble at the moment, and then, the two walked side by side, and when they arrived at Zou Borui's room, the two of them talked with an oil lamp and a pot of hot tea.
"It's not a secret, the hidden danger of the security army has always been there, although it was said that it was cleared before, it was also because of His Royal Highness, His Highness and the emperor can't make a difference, and those of us who are courtiers are also embarrassed, aren't we? But where can this water thief be eliminated in a day or two, it can only be done for show, and it will be regarded as a transaction! ”
"This, this...... How can this be reasonable, this is a major matter related to the country, how can it be done in such a hasty and perfunctory way! Feng Can was so angry that his beard trembled.
Zou Borui stretched out his hand and poured a cup of tea for Feng Can, signaling him not to be excited, "I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed, I think I've been an official for more than 20 years, and it's the first time I've done such a foolish account!" ”
"Lord Zou, ...... you" Feng Can didn't know what to say, let's persuade him, this thing is really inappropriate, don't persuade him, but Zou Borui is also a courtier, and those who take the idea are not all kings, as courtiers, how can they endure it?
The two of them discussed this until late at night, and they all shook their heads and sighed again and again, and before they knew it, there was already a trace of moon white in the sky.
After the major event of canonizing the crown princess, the second major event in Kyoto soon ushered in, that is, the wedding of King Cheng.
The two lives combined, Qin Shuang is still excited for the first time, getting married is a major event in a person's life, last time, Zheng Jinxuan was the crown princess, and when the prince inherited the unification, it was for her to make a wedding dress, in this life, no matter what, Zheng Jinxuan can be better than the last time!
When the post was handed to Zhongyibo's Mansion, it was still received by Jiang.
The wedding of the original King Cheng, it doesn't matter whether the post is handed over to the Zhongyi Bofu or not, but since Qin Yue became the concubine and Qin Tian became the prince's concubine, this Zhongyi Bofu has risen slightly.
Qin Shuang had planned it early on, even if she couldn't go to the Chengwang Mansion to accompany Zheng Jinxuan, she could still go to the Hou Mansion to have a look.
She didn't have to inquire about this by herself, on the day she was canonized as the crown princess, Han Zhi and Zheng Jinxuan handed her the news at the same time.
And the sixteenth of March was set.
Because before the draft, Marquis Dingyuan and Mrs. Hou were like Spiegel in their hearts, knowing that their daughter was either the crown princess or the princess of Cheng, so they prepared the dowry early, and the dowry of one hundred and twenty-eight lifts filled the entire courtyard.
can be a wedding dress or something, the difference between the crown princess and the princess is big, so I couldn't prepare it in advance, and it was time-consuming and laborious to prepare these things temporarily, so the days were moved back a little, and it was more generous.
During this period, Qin Shuang went to the Hou Mansion again, looking at the dowry full of courtyards and houses, Qin Shuang was really happy for Zheng Jinxuan in her heart, but Zheng Jinxuan was still very scared, because of King Cheng, this had to make Qin Shuang feel curious about this King Cheng who had never met again, and she couldn't blame her, it was really her understanding of King Cheng that was very little.
It's just that before Zheng Jinxuan got married, he waited for the He family first.
When He came back, it was the third day after Qin Yue entered the palace, and Qin Shuang saw her for the first time, only to see that she was full of spring breeze, and she was unpleasant.
Qin Shuang couldn't help but feel a little sad, Qin Yue entered the palace to give the emperor who was the same age as Uncle Qin as a concubine, plus the palace was full of reefs and shoals, the He family could still be proud!
