After Zhou Huaili and Wang Yixing left, Jiang Siniang took Xia Shan and Xia Chi to lunch.

The two children had never been so hungry, and when they came to the dinner table, they devoured it and ate two bowls of rice without being persuaded by others.

Jiang Siniang looked a little funny, but thinking that Xia Shan and Xia Chi had been motherless children from now on, she pitied them in her heart, and said softly: "Eat slowly, don't choke." While ordering the maid to pour them tea, come over and put it beside her.

……

In the outer study room of King Zhao's Mansion, Wang Yixing and Zhou Huaili walked in one after the other.

"Sit down." Wang Yixing sat down behind the bookcase and asked Zhou Huaili to sit opposite him.

Zhou Huaili smiled, sat down in front of Wang Yixing, and said, "You are also the master of this Zhaowang Mansion." ”

Wang Yixing didn't smile, and said lightly: "The Holy Lord entrusted this palace to me, and I don't dare not be unwilling." ”

"Hehe......" Zhou Huaili chuckled, "Brother Wang is naturally a celebrity in front of the saint, not something we can compare." ”

Wang Yixing waved his hand, "Needless to say. After a pause, Wang Yixing asked Zhou Huaili: "Have you made a marriage?" ”

Zhou Huaili was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Brother Wang, do you want to be a big matchmaker for me?" ”

Wang Yixing nodded slowly and smiled: "What if I say yes?" ”

"Uh......" Zhou Huaili was choked for a moment, and sneered: "Brother Wang's official business~one~book~read~ybdu.. Busy, how can you have time to be a matchmaker for me? Don't bother Brother Wang. ”

"What is the relationship between you and me? Don't be so polite. Wang Yixing smiled and said, "I did show you a good family business, would you like it?" ”

The smile on Zhou Huaili's face faded. He looked at Wang Yixing steadily. "Are you serious? ”

Wang Yixing nodded.

Zhou Huaili lowered his head. After pondering for a long time, he said slowly: "If it was before, I would have pushed the boat along the water......"

"And now?" Wang Yixing propped one arm on the bookcase, leaned forward, looked at Zhou Huaili with interest and asked.

"Now, of course not now." Zhou Huaili sighed, "I have someone in my heart, and I can't marry anyone." ”

This is the first time that Zhou Huaili has admitted in front of people that he has someone in his heart.

Wang Yixing smiled slightly. "It seems that you are sincere to Miss Jiang Si."

Zhou Huaili was silent.

Whether it's sincere or not, it's not just lip service.

"But as far as I know, the Jiang family doesn't want to marry Siniang to you." Wang Yixing withdrew his arm, leaned back on the Taishi chair, squinted his eyes and smiled.

“…… I know. Zhou Huaili looked up at Wang Yixing, "Actually, I have long wanted to ask Brother Wang for help." For the sake of me helping you do so much, please fulfill me once. ”

"You're not helping me, you're helping the Holy One. Make no mistake about that. Wang Yixing shook his finger.

Zhou Huaili pursed his lips, "Where does the saint recognize me?" The Holy One only trusts Brother Wang. I just need Brother Wang to accept my affection. ”

"You help us get on the side of the Abolished Emperor. mastered the position of the Jingshi garrison, and gave the heaviest blow to the group of people of the abolished emperor and Zhao Hou. This great affection. The Holy One will not fail to remember. Wang Yixing comforted Zhou Huaili, he didn't want to chill the hero's heart.

Zhou Huaili shook his head, "That night, it was my lobby brother who contributed the most. If he hadn't driven back with the army of the gods, we might be in the end of the world right now. ”

The thrilling of that night also left a deep impression on Wang Yixing's heart, so profound that it almost made him desperate......

"That's why the saint made him the general of the town." Wang Yixing said lightly, "However, in the end, he is the son of the Divine General's Mansion, and he will never let the saint rest assured." Huaili, don't worry, you will only get more without the Divine General's Mansion. As he spoke, he stretched out his right hand to Zhou Huaili and made a fist gesture.

Zhou Huaili's heart moved, and he smiled and arched his hand: "Then I will follow Brother Wang closely!" ”

Wang Yixing smiled, "I'm still only a Sixth Rank Hall official, and your grade is higher than mine." - Follow me, can you say this? ”

"What's this? Brother Wang, what official are you going to be, isn't it up to you to choose from the six departments? Zhou Huaili said disapprerovingly, "I just want to ask Brother Wang for this one thing, if you can help me, I'd rather not do this Jingshi garrison!" ”

Wang Yixing looked at him with a smile, shook his head and said, "Huaili, it's not good if it's over!" You know that if you follow me, I won't let you suffer. - I don't even do the Jingshi garrison, do you want a bigger official?! ”

Zhou Huaili smiled, "Brother Wang is an understanding person, so I don't say dark words in front of people." - I want you to help me turn around, and ask the Holy Lord to marry me and the four girls of the Jiang family! ”

"Tsk, why is this son so determined? I said, you still follow the big media I protect. If you marry that girl, you don't have to worry about keeping your fame and fortune in this life. Wang Yixing shook his head, seemingly very regretful.

"There are gains and losses. I also said, if it had been before, I would have really followed. Zhou Huaili stretched out his arm, touched the back of his head, and said with emotion, "I'm not too young." I didn't understand my mind until now, and hopefully it wasn't too late. ”

"What if I don't help you? What if the Holy Lord gave Miss Jiang Si to someone else? For example, the previous Yin Ergongzi ......," Wang Yixing asked with a smile.

Zhou Huaili choked, "You won't be so excessive, right?" I know that I will marry her if I have to marry her, and I will marry her to someone else! ”

"You didn't say you wouldn't marry her." Wang Yixing laughed, and was very happy to see that he had forced out Zhou Huaili's true words.

He laughed so hard that tears came out of his eyes.

“…… I didn't understand it before, and the bad impression of their family on me was all my own doing, and I couldn't blame others. Fortunately, it's not too late, she's not married yet, and I still have a chance, so I can't take care of it. Zhou Huaili said, got up from the chair, knelt down on one leg, and begged Wang Yixing: "Brother Wang, you can help me once!" When she gets married, it's too late! ”

Zhou Huaili's words made Wang Yixing change color.

He squinted his eyes and stared down at Zhou Huaili, who was kneeling in front of him on one leg.

Zhou Huaili's words touched Wang Yixing's deepest regret.

and thou shalt not live.

Didn't he wake up too late?

Wang Yixing closed his eyes. Hold back the pain and remorse in your heart. Nodding his head, he said, "Okay." Then I'll try. ”

"Thank you, Brother Wang!" Zhou Huaili was overjoyed, and even knelt down on his other leg and kowtowed to Wang Yixing.

Indeed, in the current situation, if Zhou Huaili wants to marry Jiang Siniang, there is no other possibility except to ask the saint for marriage.

……

In the blink of an eye, it was late March, after May Seven. Wang Qingmei's coffin was buried in the imperial mausoleum.

Within a few days, the coffin of the Empress Dowager was also buried in the imperial mausoleum.

Although the Empress Dowager passed away in Layue last year, in terms of grade, the Empress Dowager's funeral was of course larger and lasted longer than Wang Qingmei's funeral, so the two were buried almost at the same time.

After the Empress Dowager was buried, Emperor Xia Zhao changed out of his plain clothes and put on a newly made dress.

Xia Shan and Xia Chi officially entered the palace and lived in their respective palaces.

Because they were still young, Lady Yao stayed in the palace. Personally raised these two children.

In order to block the mouths of the courtiers, Emperor Xia Zhao promoted the two side concubines given to him by the former Empress Dowager from promise to Zhaoyi.

Emperor Xia Zhao's inner palace has a super-grade Yao female official. There are also two Zhaoyi, who are also passable.

"Holy Lord, are you looking for Weichen, is there anything wrong?" Wang Yixing came to Emperor Xia Zhao's imperial study, bowed down and asked.

Emperor Xia Zhao had fulfilled all his wishes, and he was in a very good mood, and said to Wang Yixing with a smile: "These days, I am busy with the funeral of the Empress Dowager, and the affairs of the court, thanks to you." ”

"That's a matter for the micro-ministers." Wang Yixing arched his hand and said humbly.

"Okay, your ability and ability have been seen in my eyes all these years." Emperor Xia Zhao pointed to the stool in front of him, "Sit." ”

Wang Yixing leaned over and sat down respectfully.

"After I ascended the throne, I rewarded so many people, but I didn't give you a reward, do you blame me?" Emperor Xia Zhao asked with a grin, the light in his eyes flashing back and forth.

Wang Yixing shook his head slightly, "The saint is serious, and Weichen thinks it's very good now." ”

"Haha, don't be too humble. Tell me, what reward do you want? Emperor Xia Zhao supported his head with his hands and asked with a smile.

Wang Yixing's heart moved, and he raised his head and said: "If the saint really wants to be rewarded, Weichen has only one wish." ”

"Tell me about it, talk about it!" Emperor Xia Zhao was overjoyed.

"The minister wants to ask the saint to come forward and give marriage to the son of the Divine General's Mansion on Thursday." Wang Yixing said as he stared at Emperor Xia Zhao's expression, as if he wanted to see some clues from his reaction.

Unexpectedly, Emperor Xia Zhao didn't leak a drop of water, and asked with a laugh: "Is it Huaili?!" Can't figure out who he wants to marry? Do you want to get out of the horse?! ”

Let the emperor give you a marriage, but you can't marry whoever you want.

As the saying goes, it is better to demolish ten temples than to demolish one marriage.

If you mess with the mandarin duck score, it will have more serious consequences than demolishing the temple......

"No, I can't. Our emperor of Great Xia has no habit of pointing to marriage. Emperor Xia Zhao shook his head and did not let go, "At most, they are consensual, and it is okay for me to add the icing on the cake." If you want me to force someone to marry, or force someone to marry, that's not good. ”

Wang Yixing smiled, his face did not change color and his heart did not beat: "Naturally, it is wishful thinking, but the woman's father and mother disagree, so ......"

These words touched the heart of Emperor Xia Zhao.

Back then, he and Zheng Xiangrong were consensual, but because of ancestral training, they ended miserably, and the two were separated forever and could not see each other.

"That's ......," Emperor Xia Zhao pondered for a long time, "who is it?" ”

"Miss Jiang Si." Wang Yixing smiled and said, "Your relatives." ”

"Oh, it's her." Emperor Xia Zhao smiled, "Huaili has a good eye." After a pause, he said: "Huaili's family background is outstanding, he is also a talent, and his ability is not bad, how can the Jiang family disagree?" ”

"Probably he is not the prince of the Divine General's Mansion?" Wang Yixing asked tentatively.

Emperor Xia Zhao frowned, and secretly said that if Zhou Huaili was the son of the Divine General's Mansion, he would definitely help Ah Yan pull him off the horse and give it to her husband Zhou Huaixuan......

"Probably not, right? In my opinion, the Jiang family is not this kind of person who tends to be inflammatory. "Emperor Xia Zhao's evaluation of the Jiang family is still very high.

He has been in Jiangnan for more than ten years, all under the care of the Jiang family.

"Compared with the power of the Jiang family, Huaili is indeed not worthy of the four girls of the Jiang family." Wang Yixing said meaningfully, "The Jiang family has a saint, but Huaili can't rely on the Divine General's Mansion for the rest of his life. ”

Zhou Huaili and their room will be separated, and after they are separated, they really have nothing to do with the Divine General's Mansion.

Emperor Xia Zhao thought about it and said slowly: "I am also thinking about this matter. The Jiang family really needs to use it, but they can't let their family dominate. ”

Wang Yixing smiled and nodded. That's right, that's what he really meant.

Asking for marriage for Zhou Huaili is just an introduction, the key is to make Emperor Xia Zhao realize that he can't rely on the Jiang family alone, and he can't let the Jiang family stand out......

"So be it. When the Empress Dowager was alive, she wanted to set up the post of prime minister, lead the imperial study, directly obey me, and complement each other with the six ministries. Emperor Xia Zhao pondered, "I see, it's time. As he spoke, he glanced at Wang Yixing with a smile.

"Yixing, do you have the determination to do a good job as the first prime minister of the Great Xia Dynasty!"

Wang Yixing's heart jumped heavily, he suppressed the joy in his heart, hurriedly stood up, and bowed to Emperor Xia Zhao: "Weichen is young and knowledgeable, although he wants to help the saint share his worries, but I am afraid that the courtiers will not accept ......"

"Not convinced? Why are they not convinced? Emperor Xia Zhao rolled his eyes, "In terms of qualifications, ability, and your help to me, it is more than enough for you to be a prime minister!" - That's it, I'll make an order! ”
