Chapter 520: The Dust Settles
Gu Mingyue's matter did not become Gu Mingzhu's trouble, she is now full of worries about the Queen Mother, since Cui Lin entered the palace to ask for marriage that day, the Queen Mother has not responded.
She did not immediately marry Gu Mingzhu to the Hanyang County Palace, nor did she make any moves, which made people very confused.
Gu Mingzhu is no different, she still goes to the East Pavilion of the Taiji Hall every day to accompany the Queen Mother and help deal with political affairs, and the Queen Mother will even discuss some important affairs with her, which makes everyone in the palace very in awe of Gu Mingzhu.
It's just that waiting for the road ahead is torture, Gu Mingzhu is always depressed and uneasy, she doesn't know what the queen mother means, is she waiting for the right time to give marriage?
I don't know if there is a rumor leaking from the palace, and the princess of Hanyang County, Lu, has entered the palace more often, but she doesn't dare to disturb the queen mother, but often goes to Shujing Hall to see Concubine Shu.
After the rebellion, many concubines and nobles in the palace were separated or died, and only the concubines and the two maidens remained in the six palaces, but the saint had been seriously ill for a long time, and the inner palace was cold and deserted without any anger.
Concubine Zhao is panicked, she no longer has the heart to be competitive, and she doesn't dare to compete for favor anymore, but she is afraid that if the saint is mourned, she will also be sent to the meditation nunnery or the cold palace to spend the rest of her life, after all, she is still young, how can she survive such a hard rest of her life.
The princess of Hanyang County asked to see her, and she was naturally willing, after all, the princess of Hanyang County still led the palace guards, and there were only benefits to being able to make friends with the princess of Hanyang County, and there was no harm.
It's just that the princess of Hanyang County begged her, but she had a headache.
The smile on her face was a little ugly, she coughed unnaturally, took a bite of the teapot, and then said slowly: "...... The county lord of Lingling is no one else, and the princess of the county also knows that the queen mother values her the most and keeps her by her side from time to time, even Princess Anping is very different from her, not the county lord in those clans, and she can only enter the palace to meet her during the New Year's holidays. ”
The princess of Hanyang County blinked, and the smile on her shrewd face was about to overflow: "What the princess said is that I also know that the county lord is very important and is the person next to the queen mother, so I didn't dare to speak easily before, but I still entered the palace last time to ask the queen mother to say goodbye, and when I talked about the marriage of the eldest man, I wanted to ask the queen mother to give me a marriage." ”
I never thought that the Queen Mother would say it, saying that there was a ready-made one in front of her, but she was not very willing. I originally thought it wouldn't be possible, but some time ago, the Queen Mother asked Da Lang if the marriage was not successful, or if the county lord would marry Da Lang, we didn't dare to think about it, and we were grateful. ”
Lu's words were not leaky, and the expression on his face was also vivid: "It's just that this marriage has to be begged, and in the past few days, I have been thinking about entering the palace to ask the queen mother for grace and marriage, but this kind of thing is not easy to open hard, so I want to ask the mother to help me, so I can speak." ”
Concubine Shu frowned when she heard this, it was not that she didn't want to help, if she could sell a favor to the Hanyang County Palace, it would also be good for her, but she still had to ask for an understanding.
"You should go and ask those concubines, how did you come to me." She sighed, "Now that this is the case in the palace, how can I be involved in these things." ”
She said as she bowed: "Now only Niangniang has a noble and decent status in the palace, and I can only come to beg Niangniang when I think about it." ”
She is not confused, when the first emperor was there, although the queen mother did not pay attention to those people, but after the first emperor was killed, they were sent to the cold palace and the meditation nunnery to be placed, obviously they didn't like it very much, if this matter was asked to them, it would be really bad.
Concubine Shu talked to her for a while, and finally agreed, and with the gratitude of the princess of Hanyang County, she took someone to the Taiji Hall with her to ask to see the Queen Mother.
“…… Niangniang, I think this is also a great joy, the county lord and the county king's mansion are also a match made in heaven, the family and character are comparable, if it can really become this marriage, I can't help add some joy to the palace, and the saint's illness will be ......"
When Concubine Shu talked about the saint, she was sad after all, and her voice was a little choked.
The princess of Hanyang County on the side was busy with words, and got up to salute: "Ask the mother for permission to marry." ”
She is already confident, the news that has spread in the palace these days is that the Queen Mother intends to marry the Lord of Lingling County to the Hanyang County Palace, and the Queen Mother is also satisfied with this marriage that day, but this is the only difference, presumably the Queen Mother will give the marriage.
The Queen Mother sat on the upper seat and looked at her and Concubine Shu, and she didn't speak, her eyes were a little colder: "The princess of the county is anxious, does Concubine Shu also want to get a thank you gift?" ”
Concubine Shu didn't understand what the Queen Mother meant, but she thought she was making fun of herself, lowered her head and pursed her lips and smiled: "I just want to take advantage of the Queen Mother's grace to be happy." ”
The Queen Mother's smile faded: "Are you looking forward to my grace......"
The princess of Hanyang County heard that something was wrong, and she was alarmed, and hurriedly said: "I am an ignorant person, but I heard that the lord of Lingling County is outstanding and deeply liked by the Queen Mother, so I thought that maybe it was a suitable marriage, if the mother felt that it was inappropriate......"
The Queen Mother sneered and interrupted her: "You told me earlier that the Hanyang County Mansion is one of the best nobles in the court after all, and I am willing to give this kind of grace......"
The princess of Hanyang County suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and was about to thank her, but she heard the queen mother say:
"The second lady of the Wuxu Mansion is the same age as your eldest man, and she is also outstanding.
The Queen Mother's words were categorical, and there was no room for negotiation, but she taught the princess and concubine of Hanyang County to change their faces greatly, as if they were sitting on pins and needles.
Concubine Shu didn't care, but she thought that she had said the wrong family matter, which made the Queen Mother feel that she was troublesome.
The princess of Hanyang County is heartbroken to the bottom, and she has won the marriage, but she has changed from the lord of Lingling County to the second lady of the country's sacrificial wine, which cannot be without reason. Guozi sacrificial wine is a leisure position from Sanpin, and the second lady of the Wu family has never heard of it, is the queen mother like this...... Warn her and the royal palace of Hanyang-gun?
When she thought of this, her soul was so frightened that she didn't possess her body, where did she dare to say anything, hiding her uneasiness and fearing to salute and thank her, she didn't dare to mention Gu Mingzhu for half a word, and hurriedly quit the palace in a hurry.
When Concubine Shu and the princess of Hanyang County retired and left the Taiji Palace, the Queen Mother finally sighed, put away the copy of the Cui family that had opened a warehouse to release grain for disaster relief sent by Huainan on the case, called Xu Siyan in, and wrote an edict to hand it over to the Shanggong Bureau.
The female official who issued the edict took the phoenix edict to Gu Mingzhu's side hall and read it word by word: "...... The lord of Lingling County, Gu Mingzhu, is gentle, diligent and submissive, and gives marriage to Boling Cui's Wulang Lin, and chooses an auspicious day to become a gift. ”
All the previous worries, this moment the dust settled.
