Chapter Seventy-Three: This Is Our Father's and Son's Chance!
Not only Qiu Yulan couldn't understand how the county lord of Lihui was involved in Jiangya Dan, but at this moment in the Huainan Palace, the prince Chu Weixian also begged bitterly in front of the King of Huainan: "Our family is already a royal palace, and my father is in the position of Zongzheng, why worry about being rich?" Now the Jiang family covers the sky with one hand, and it is very polite to treat the father, the Jiang family has many henchmen, even if my sister marries Jiang Yadan, how much care can we give our family? And who in the government and the opposition doesn't know that the Jiang family is now fighting fiercely, that Jiangya Dan is the eldest son of the fourth room, although the fourth room is the only one in the army, but the power above the court is thin! Father, it's really unwise for you to do this......"
"What do you know?" Chu Xiao frowned and interrupted him, "If it weren't for the fact that the four rooms of the Jiang family were weak in the court, why would the father give up his daughter to achieve this marriage?" ”
Chu Weixian was stunned, and then said in surprise: "Father, you? ”
"The fourth room of the Jiang family now holds two border armies, and its status can be said to be as stable as a mountain!" Chu Xiao narrowed his eyes and said lightly, "Although Jiang Tianchi is half a hundred years old, he is in good health, and he has an outstanding sister-in-law like Jiang Yashuang under his knees, how can he be satisfied with this?" Next, he will inevitably covet the court - but his eldest son and second son are not angry, the grandchildren are still young, among the in-laws, the Zhuang family and the Qiu family are thin, the Tao family no longer exists, the Sheng family is low, and the Sheng family has an embarrassing background, and the relationship with the mother's family has always been delicate......"
Speaking of this, he sneered, "Because of Jiang Yashuang's wife, Xue Chang can barely be regarded as a four-room alliance now—but Xue Chang is already a veteran of the Three Dynasties, and how many years can he be in power?" The fourth room of the Jiang family is now lacking the help of the court, this is the opportunity for our father and son! ”
"But that Jiang Yadan is lustful, and he is not a good match at all!" Chu Weixian and Chu Yitong, the county lord of Lihui, are compatriots of the same mother, the brother and sister are several years apart, Chu Yitong can be said to have grown up with Chu Weixian, and has always been treated as half a daughter. Especially in the past two years, Princess Huainan passed away unexpectedly, Chu Yitong blamed himself very much, and Shouxiao was depressed and haggard in the past few years, which made Chu Weixian feel very distressed.
Not long ago, after his filial piety, Chu Weixian was working hard to find a good family for his sister, how could he be willing to let her fill the house for Jiang Yadan?
At this moment, he said earnestly, "And Jiang Yadan already has a son in law, according to the Jiang family's always heavy and light style, even if my sister gives birth to a male heir in the future, she will be lower than that child, what benefits can she get?" Father, the most painful thing for the mother concubine is her sister, please read it for the sake of the mother concubine, don't give your sister to that prodigal son, okay? ”
"Isn't it for her to be a father?" Chu Xiao said hesitantly, "This opportunity can be said to be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity - just in time for Mrs. Zhuang to return to Beijing in person for her daughter!" You probably don't remember this lady when you're young, she is notoriously hated concubines! While she is in the capital, let her send away all the messy people in Jiangyadan's backyard for your sister, even if you can't send them all, it's no problem to beat them one by one! ”
"As for Jiang Yadan's son-in-law, raised horizontally and vertically under the knees of Jiang Yashuang and his wife, Mrs. Tao said that she was dead at the beginning, and she had to be raised in front of her uncle and aunt until she reached adulthood! Think about it, even if this child has a special status, he has never been in front of his biological father, how much affection can he have?! Even if he has a deep relationship with Jiang Yashuang and his wife, but Jiang Yashuang's wife is pregnant, can this nephew compare with his beloved son? ”
"What's more, although Jiang Ya Dan put. Swing, but how many men in this world, unless the family is poor or exceptional, are not full of concubines? Chu Xiao sneered and said, "Don't talk to Jiang Yashuang and his wife, you don't want to think about the appearance of the Ningyi County Lord!" Moreover, Jiang Yashuang has always been taught by Qin Guogong to be ambitious, and now he is looking forward to showing his strength at this age, and his mind is not on beauty at all! In a few years, it is hard to say whether there will be only one person in his backyard, Ning Yi, the county lord! You just marry your sister to someone else, unless you marry low, you don't dare to raise your head when you marry low to her husband's house and see our father and son, otherwise can you guarantee that she will not be wronged in the backyard for the rest of her life? ”
Speaking of this, he sighed, "Anyway, your sister is also a dignified county lord!" Are you willing to let her marry into a lowly family? In that way, even if you don't despise her, can your wife and children not underestimate her? In the eyes of outsiders, who doesn't say that you don't love her to do this?! ”
Therefore, "simply marrying Jiang Yadan is not only good for our family, but also not too bad for her!" ”
Chu Weixian almost wanted to vomit blood: "Father, don't forget the fate of Jiang Yadan's wife!" Even if Mrs. Zhuang is now in Beijing and has sent Jiang Yadan's backyard away, Mrs. Zhuang is jealous, and she will inevitably return to Northern Xinjiang to look at General Zhenbei soon! At that time, Jiang Yadan's old state sprouted, and the sad one was not his sister?! ”
Maybe Jiang Yadan is happy to borrow his mother's discipline to update his backyard and bring in a group of younger, more beautiful and more servant?
"Little Tao's appearance is ugly, how can he compare with your sister?" Chu Xiao disagreed, "And the concubine and the like are just playthings, Jiang Ya Dansu is indefinite, if your sister is not angry in the future, won't you deal with it when he is not interested?" ”
Chu Weixian saw that he was determined to use his daughter to pave the way, so that he could get in touch with the fourth room of the Jiang family, in order to obtain the support of the fourth room, and show his strength in the court, he couldn't help but cry like rain, and knelt down in his robe and begged: "My sister has been deeply favored by her father and mother since she was a child, how can she suffer such grievances?" I implore my father to retract my destiny for the sake of the love between father and daughter! ”
"Confused!" Chu Xiao's face turned gloomy, and he shouted angrily, "You are doing this for your father just for yourself? As a father, how many years can he still be alive? After all, it's not for you and your children and grandchildren! ”
Chu Weixian insisted: "The child is not sensitive, and he is already the son of the father, and he doesn't dare to think about the rest!" ”
"Do you mean wealth as a father?" Chu Xiao sneered, "What my father said was his life!" ”
Chu Weixian was stunned: "Why did my father say this?" "The Huainan Royal Mansion has never made a feud with the Jiang family, nor has it threatened the Jiang family? As for the danger!
"Why don't you understand? It is not only the four rooms of the Jiang family that need the help of the court, but also the queen mother! Otherwise, why do you think the Queen Mother is willing to thread the needle? Chu Xiao sighed and said earnestly, "Strictly speaking, the Empress Dowager is the one who is most looking forward to the Jiang family's four rooms being able to be powerful in the court - don't you forget, the Empress Dowager's mother and daughter, but they have been in the fourth room since many years ago!" ”
"Now that the Duke of Qin is still here, Jiang Yashuang and Mrs. Zhuang are all in Beijing, even if the Jiang family's big house and third room are angry with the fourth room, they will not be angry with the Queen Mother!"
"But do you think, once the Duke of Qin Guo dies, and Mrs. Zhuang and Jiang Yashuang both go to Northern Xinjiang, how can the Jiang family's big house and third room not be angry with the Queen Mother?! Although Empress Dowager Jiang's status is noble, her ability to govern is nothing more than that! Jiang Tianqiao alone is enough to play with her! Do you think there are few people in the court who have four rooms, and there are few people that the Queen Mother can trust and rely on, can the Queen Mother feel at ease? ”
Glancing at his stunned son, Chu Xiao sneered, "So the Queen Mother thought about it and thought of being a father!" And do you think that a father can refuse the hint of the Queen Mother? Don't forget that even if the Queen Mother can't fight her brothers, it's just a matter of one sentence to clean up our palace! ”
"And my father rushed to the court to fight for power with the Jiang family's big house and third room, what do you say is the difference between killing yourself?"
Speaking of this, Chu Xiao sighed, "What else can I do besides marrying a daughter?!" ”
…… Seeing Chu Weixian leave in despair, Chu Xiao snorted lightly: "The kindness of a woman!" ”
"The prince is kind-hearted, and since he pities the county lord, isn't he more filial to the prince?" The henchman who had been hiding behind the screen turned out and spoke warmly.
Chu Xiao said that in the end, he invited the eldest son of the prince - shook his head and stopped scolding Chu Weixian, and said to his confidant: "This is not a good fool, but do you think this marriage can be done?" Although the Queen Mother personally came forward to be a guarantor, Mrs. Zhuang has always acted recklessly, even the Queen Mother cannot make decisions for her, and she must take a fancy to her before agreeing. ”
The henchman smiled: "There is no problem in the opinion of students. Please think about it, the county lord is the blood of the royal family, and the princess is a concubine, in terms of identity, it is also a low marriage to be a wife to Jiang Yadan! Although Jiang Yadan's brother-in-law, Ning Yi, the county lord, is also the county lord, in the end, she is just from the palace with a different surname! In terms of appearance, the county lord is beautiful and gentle, dignified and atmospheric, how could Mrs. Zhuang not like it? In terms of temperament, Mrs. Zhuang is not familiar with the county lord, but the princess has a good reputation in her life, and everyone knows it! ”
Therefore, "as long as no one gets in the way, it will be done!" ”
"That's right!" Chu Xiao bowed slightly, "However, those who are in the way still have to pay attention!" Now there are a lot of people staring at the position of Jiang Ya Dan's continuation! This matter is related to the future of my Huainan Palace, and it must be foolproof! "He's been waiting for most of his life for such a great opportunity!
Speaking of which, I really want to thank Princess Huainan for her death - otherwise Chu Yitong would not have to keep his filial piety for the past few years, and would have already agreed to leave the cabinet, this is his young daughter, but where to get another daughter to marry the Jiang family?
"Lord Wang, please rest assured, the students have already prepared!" The henchman smiled slightly, and said firmly, "The student is here first to congratulate the prince on his happy son-in-law and great ambitions!" ”
Chu Xiao stroked his beard and smiled pleasantly: "I borrow your auspicious words, but I hope everything goes well!" ”
Although I didn't see this scene in the Huainan Palace, after Jiang Yashuang came back, after hearing his wife and mother tell that the Queen Mother actually recommended the county lord of Lihui to Jiang Yadan as a stepmother, he said a word: "It's nothing more than that the King of Huainan has taken a fancy to our house and has no own people in the court, and wants to take advantage of the marriage!" ”
Mrs. Zhuang asked, "Then do you say that this family can be married?" ”
"It doesn't hurt." Jiang Yashuang pondered for a while and said, "King Huainan has always been scheming and calculating, and he is an interesting person. Otherwise, it would not have been decent from the Gu clan to now. He should know what he needs to do and what he can't do to borrow the potential in our room. ”
He also said, "Of course, there are not a few courtiers who want to get the support of our house now, and the key is whether the county lord of Lihui is suitable for starling." ”
Mrs. Zhuang was relieved: "Since this is the case, then I will ask about the behavior and appearance of this county lord, and see if he is qualified to enter our door!" ”
