Chapter 707: Direction (II)
Chapter 707: Direction (II)
"Master Hou," Eleven Niang looked at Xu Lingyi with some concern, "What does the emperor mean by this?" In this way, Brother Jin was given a hereditary official position, not to mention, it was specially awarded to the filial piety of the emperor's relatives......"
"Aren't we royal relatives?" Xu Lingyi was obviously in a good mood, first made a joke with Shi Niang, and then said in a low voice, "It's okay, now it's not like before, the emperor has a global vision, and I am no longer the one who makes him jealous." After speaking, Gao laughed, "I think, the emperor is only afraid that 'Pei Gong dances the sword, and the ambition is Xiang Yu'!" ”
Aiming at Xiang Yu, that is to say, don't have any plans! But no matter what the plan is, using Brother Jin to make you erbium makes people faintly feel that this is not a good thing!
"What did Master Hou see?" Eleven Niang Shen said, "The concubine can't see anything!" ”
"You can't see it's normal." Xu Lingyi teased her, "If you can see it, how can the emperor manipulate those courtiers." ”
"Oh?" Eleven Niang raised her eyebrows, Suo Xìng and Xu Lingyi played with a spear, "I listened to Hou Ye's tone, how can I seem to be praising myself - the emperor is even at the mercy of those courtiers, but let our Hou Ye see it!" Tut-tut, our Hou Ye is really amazing! ”
Xu Lingyi couldn't help laughing, hugged Eleven Niang affectionately, and then said: "I usually look at you as a smart person, why is it not good today?" You use your brain, think about it! How could this be so strange? ”
Strange?
Eleven Niang's mind flashed, and her face sank: "Could it be that the emperor wants to pay attention to Princess Ershang?" ”
The emperor's casualness, the queen's calmness...... Still at the age of a princess. Only in this way can it be explained!
"Half right." Xu Lingyi said with a smile, "Princesses are generally not easy to marry, not to mention that the eldest princess is too late." If you don't take any more counsel about attaching the horse, it's too late. But if you want to make the eldest princess still jealous, I'm afraid it may not be! ”
When it comes to her son's future happiness, Eleven Niang can't care about laughing with Xu Lingyi, and hurriedly urges Xu Lingyi: "Master Hou make it clear!" ”
"If you want to let Brother Jin Ershang princess, the first thing is to find someone who is good with our family to quietly deliver a message, otherwise, if our brother Jin is already engaged, wouldn't it be a big joke. If there is no news in advance, the emperor has no other plans for the marriage of the eldest princess. Xu Lingyi said slowly, "With the eldest princess entering and leaving the inner and outer palaces at will, because she can play with the eldest princess, the eldest princess will look at the young son of the Marquis of Yongping who has been guarded against by him, and also give a hereditary commander of Xiaolingwei...... You say, "What a grace this is......"
"The concubine body understands!" didn't wait for Xu Lingyi to finish speaking, Eleven Niang's expression was faintly excited, "When others look at it, the eldest princess is so favored, and she really has become the eldest princess's attachment, isn't it boundless wealth!" The emperor is building momentum for the eldest princess's marriage! What's more, this benefit was given to our house again, which is a matter of killing two birds with one stone! ”
"Not bad, not bad!" Xu Lingyi pretended to be relieved, "I'm finally smart!" ”
"Master Hou!" Eleven Niang smiled, "You can't be serious!" Then he smiled, "Then, what should I do?" Do you want someone to bring back a letter from him? Do you want to send Brother Jin to the guard at the border gate? ”
"Brother Jin wants to accept the order, and he will definitely come back." Xu Lingyi said with a straight face, "As for whether to send Brother Jin to the guard," he thought, "Once you start to say goodbye to the eldest princess, there will be nothing to do with Brother Jin." What's more, Xiaolingwei doesn't need to be a little bit of a mess, and he doesn't need to be an errand. We can do what we have to do! In the end, his tone was a bit categorical, "I'll figure out how to do this, so don't worry." ”
Shi Niang nodded slightly: "I'm afraid that he will get such an official position, and he will have nothing to do all day long, and a good child will be wasted!" ”
"I know!" Xu Lingyi shook Shi Niang's hand, "Don't worry, if you give it to the fish, it is better to give it to the fish." I know it. ”
Eleven Niang put her mind at ease and went to Mrs. Tai with Xu Lingyi.
Mrs. Tai was telling the second lady, Jiang and others about the scene at that time: "...... You didn't see their eyes, and you all wished that the command had fallen on their house. ”
Everyone laughed.
Yingniang said: "Grandmother, then why don't we open a flowing water banquet to celebrate?" ”
"To celebrate, to celebrate!" Mrs. Tai nodded again and again, "We are respectful brother, we are blessed." I don't have to worry about him anymore. At the end of the day, there was a little sigh.
"Mother is blessed." The second lady comforted Mrs. Tai softly, "The third uncle, the fifth uncle, Brother Qin, Brother Jian'er, and Brother Zhen are all gracious, and now there is another brother Jin'er." There are still good days waiting for you! ”
Mrs. Tai was very useful and kept nodding.
Xu Sichen watched it and joined in the fun: "Grandmother, I'm going to write a letter to tell my second brother, and I'm also going to send someone to report a letter over there." What a joy! ”
"Don't be in such a hurry!" Xu Lingyi's voice sounded in the room, and the people who only cared about discussing this matter saw him and Shi Niang, and they all stood up to salute, Xu Lingyi nodded, and sat on the Taishi chair next to Mrs. Shi Niang. "I'd better wait for the decree to come down. Hereditary succession is subject to cabinet deliberation. Although I won't refute the emperor's words, there are some cutscenes to go. ”
"It's better to be calm!" Mrs. Tai said this in her mouth, but instructed Eleven Niang, "You go and order an official uniform for Brother Jin'er to command the envoy of the four grades, and after receiving the holy decree, you are going to enter the palace to thank you." ”
Eleven Niang smiled and said "yes".
Mrs. Tai's topic returned to Brother Jin'er's canonization: "The emperor's message on Halloween, we just want to hide it, but we can't hide it." Speaking of which, our brother is only 12 years old this year! The twelve-year-old commander of the envoy, the entire Great Zhou, I am afraid that it is the first one. The old man's expression was a little proud, obviously he liked to talk about it, "When the time comes, we will not talk about a big banquet, but also invite the three major opera troupes of Yanjing to sing ......" Speaking of this, "Oh" sounded, and said to Eleven Niang, "You remember, the silver coin that appreciates people is cast five thousand taels." As long as you come, you will be rewarded. Take it out of my own money......"
"Not so much!" Eleven Niang was taken aback, this was a bit out of the normal range, "You can't use your own silver." Let's just come out. ”
"You are yours and I am mine." Mrs. Tai was displeased, "This is my reward......"
Mrs. Tai was talking there, and the fifth lady looked a little dazed.
Although there are few twelve-year-old commanders, there are no wonders in this world. Like her son-in-law, she took up her post when she was one year old. The same is the fourth product, who dares to say that no one is the same as her son-in-law?
She didn't notice it, and there was a little envy in her expression.
The Xu family suppressed the joy in their hearts and waited for the holy decree, and Eleven Niang had to listen to the news outside.
Within a few days, the Hou family of Zhongshan and the Hou family of Zhennan began to ask the queen about the marriage of the eldest princess euphemistically. Even the Dingguo Mansion, which has always been calm and self-contained, low-key and introverted, couldn't sit still, and the Duchess of Guo personally visited Shi Niang and vaguely begged Shi Niang to be the middleman.
The stakes are very high, and she discussed with Xu Lingyi: "Do I want to enter the palace?" ”
"Go, why don't you go." Xu Lingyi smiled, "If you don't go, won't you offend the Zheng family?" What's more, we can't make the decision about this kind of thing, whether it can be done or not, it's not a word from the emperor and the queen, so I can only bring a sentence. ”
Eleven Niang smiled and handed over the sign into the palace.
The queen mother was talking to Huang Xianying on the Luohan bed in the warm pavilion, and when she saw her coming, she asked the palace maid to move the brocade and put it next to the bed, and said, "You came just in time!" Ten days later, will the edict be delivered, will my brother be able to come back in time? ”
Eleven Niang counted the days: "I should be able to rush back!" ”
"Then let's pass the decree in fifteen days!" The queen said with a smile, "The longer the time, Brother Jin can also be more calm." He added, "If he comes back, you will let him enter the palace." It's almost the New Year, and I have another reward for him here. ”
Eleven Niang hurriedly thanked her brother.
The queen mother smiled and said: "It's better to come early than to come by chance, I'm picking a suitable person for the eldest princess, you can also listen to it and see which one is suitable." Then he motioned for Hwang Hyun Young to continue.
Eleven Niang didn't have a chance to explain her intentions, so she calmed down and listened to Huang Xianying carefully.
There are about 20 families with the meaning of Princess Shang, all of whom are the second or youngest sons of the princess's family. There are a few children, and they are really outstanding.
The queen was also very satisfied. When Huang Xianying spoke, she asked Eleven Niang: "You said, is it a good dowry to buy 10,000 acres of fertile land for the eldest princess in Huguang?" Or is it better in Shandong? ”
The opening is 10,000 acres...... That's a big deal!
"Each has its own benefits." Shi Niang said with a smile, "Huguang is the land of fish and rice, and Shandong is rich in products. The concubines look good! ”
The queen thought for a while and said, "Then Huguang is good!" Man cannot live without food. ”
That tone is like modern people saying "people can't live without money".
However, it is true.
In ancient times, there were no banks and no insurance companies.
Huang Xianying hurriedly smiled and wrote it down.
The queen mother asked about the meaning of Eleven Niang.
Eleven Niang said euphemistically.
The queen asked Huang Xianying to write it down, and talked to Eleven Niang about the dowry of the eldest princess, seeing that the time was not early, and she also rewarded a meal, which let her out of the palace.
Back at home, as soon as the car stopped, Amber shouted: "Madam, Madam, the sixth young master is back." ”
Eleven Niang, who closed her eyes and recuperated, was startled and hurriedly lifted the curtain to look.
There are several black-painted flat-topped carriages parked inside the gate of the Yongping Marquis Mansion, and Brother Jin'er's retinue Chang'an is directing a few Xiao servants to move boxes and cages.
"Chang'an!" Amber sat down on the wheel.
Chang'an Xiao ran over and hurriedly saluted, and before they could speak, he said, "The sixth young master is now in the study with the Hou master." ”
Eleven Niang got out of the car and went to the study.
