Chapter Twenty-Eight: Who's Designing
The next day was not yet dawn, and hundreds of officials had lined up outside the Taihe Palace.
In the morning light, when the sound of the yellow bell rang and spread to the entire palace, there were chamberlains shouting loudly, "Go to court-".
The dougong is huge, the golden glazed tiles are paved with golden brilliance, facing the faint and distant morning light makes people feel magnificent, donate blood boiling, enter the inside, the white steps are dustless, the guards are waiting for the spear in their hands with a deep cold air, the palace people stand and hold the floating dust, the palm fan, the female lady is silent, the inner servant stops, and does not dare to speak for fear of disturbing the saint. The red lacquer is like a slow and thick cinnabar water under the light, the gold powder carving, the steps of white marble, the delicate pattern of carving, the doors and windows are all rhombic patterns, the ground is floating cloud gold bricks, there are vaguely nine dragons haunting, the throne is set up in the bright room, the former Chen Baoxiang, Luduan, the crane, the incense pavilion, in order to show the stability of the Guotai and the people's security regime, the ceiling above the throne is in the middle of the caisson that is shaped like an umbrella cover and rises upward, and the dragon in the middle is lying down, the dragon's mouth is probed, the mouth is a jewel, the god is extremely majestic, the eyes are extremely thorough, as if it can penetrate people's hearts and calculations.
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live-" The hundred officials saluted, and the black pressure was overwhelming. Today is the Great Dynasty, discussing peace with the South Vietnamese Kingdom.
Today, he is sitting on the throne with a splendid dragon robe, moire brocade boots, and a jade hanging bead hanging from his waist, and the twelve hanging beads cover his eyebrows, and the voice is still loud and bright, so that the darkness stops.
"Zhuqingβwhat can you do?" The emperor's cold tone was like the snow in the middle of the lake in the moon, melting ice, deep, invisible, secluded, and unfathomable.
"The minister has this to play. But it was the left minister who came out of the line to salute, holding the old waist and gasping for a few breaths, it seemed that these few steps cost him half his life, in the end, he was old, not as good as a person. He said, "The envoys of the Hiro Kingdom left the post house and went to the inn to stay on their own, and the envoys of the Nanyue Kingdom presented a congratulatory gift yesterday and are still waiting for a reply in the post house. β
The emperor pondered for a moment, clicked on the Hubu Shangshu to come out of the ranks, and when he saw the other party's trembling and majestic ranking, a smile flashed in a few moments: "I heard that the war in the north was tight a few days ago? Winter is coming, I will hand over the seventy percent birthday gift to you to buy things for the northern soldiers to spend the winter, this time don't say anything about the emptiness of the treasury! If you do a good job, you will be rewarded, but if you can't do it, you will see you at the beginning." "A gentleman's word is difficult to chase, and the emperor's word is heavier than Jiuding!
Hubu Shangshu wiped the sweat from his forehead with a bitter face, and could only take on this errand! God knows how his innocent two sleeves were tarnished by the group of black crows below? This time the stakes are very important, but you have to keep an eye on it, lest the emperor really take his head!
"Present the credentials of the South Vietnamese envoys. After doing this, the depression in the emperor's heart was relaxed, and he asked Zuo Xiang to present the national letter and read it himself.
There are a lot of words, and the emperor's eyes fell on "Wang Ziyan wishes to be a son-in-law of the Han clan to kiss himself", looked at the table and stared at the officials in the hall, and suddenly said, "Nanyue is willing to marry with our dynasty Qin and Jin, and maintain the peace of the border, what do you think?"
There was a commotion in the hall, and someone came out and shouted, "The minister has objections." β
"Speak. β
"Since the beginning of the dynasty, there is no precedent for marriage, Emperor Taizu also said that the land of the hundred countries of Nanyue, the people are fierce, 100,000 mountains, lush vegetation, many birds and beasts, and the rule is a bow and arrow, thinking that it is a coward. South Vietnam, although different from others, is not a good place. It is ridiculous that the major events of the two countries are tied to women's belts, and I hope the emperor will think twice. β
The emperor took a look, it was the person from King Rui's side, he thought about it in his heart, and sneered a few times, it seems that last night's punishment was still too light, and he dared to come out this morning!
On this side, before the emperor could speak, Tang Yu on the other side spoke out against it. "If there is a good Qin and Jin Dynasty first, how can we not marry our dynasty and Nanyue? Nanyue is not a Xiongnu and other places, the folk customs are simple and kind, and the king of Nanyue is also a benevolent and peaceful person, advocating Buddhist classics, and cultivating more good fruits in the afterlife, how can he not get married? What's more, if a woman can maintain peace between the two countries, go down in history, and be admired by all the people and worshiped by hundreds of schools, it is also a blessing for a family. β
The person before said loudly, "In this case, can the Hou Ye be far away from the county lord and marry far away?"
The palace was silent for a moment, the left and right sides were all drooping their eyelids and drowsy, the general of Zhenbei leaned on the pillar and rubbed his waist as if he had made an old mistake, and the others held their breath one by one, not daring to speak, who didn't know that the county lord of the Dingguo Hou family was the future princess of King Ping? Taishang personally gave the marriage? At this time, he picked this matter? Is it really the little overlord of King Ping to provoke?
Tang Hao's face did not change, he shook his sleeves, and bowed down to the emperor, his voice was as clear as a broken jade tile, "The rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of the husband, if it is not for the * There is a marriage contract, Tang Yu will personally send her south and kiss!"
"Good!" was a very spirited sentence, but it was not said by anyone in the temple.
Taishang walked slowly from outside the main hall, his eyes were bright and sharp, like the tip of a knife cutting through everyone's skin, he couldn't help but tense his body, and tossed out a cold sweat, Taishang walked slowly but powerfully, like stepping on a mountain, "worthy of being the son of the Duke of Dingguo!" praised Tang Yu, then turned his head to the emperor and said, "The marriage between the two countries is never a trivial matter, but you have to carefully choose a noble girl." With a flick of his robe, he strode out, and these words were finalized, not only did not give the ministers room to refute, but also set the scope of candidates - noblewomen.
The emperor's heart was a little warm, his father was relieving him from the siege. He was used to saying it back then, and now although he abdicates, he still has a residual prestige. Zheng Suxi took the people from the Criminal Department to check the family's room, "Nanyue is far away in the end, so he and his relatives are selected above the seventh rank official, and the ceremony is carried out to the double decade, and among the women who have not been married, if they feel that there are fewer candidates, they will relax to twenty-five years old." β
After some tossing, the emperor got the news of the chief manager around him, and went towards Yanxi Palace with a gloomy face.
Xi Concubine - miscarriage.
Yanxi Palace was in chaos, the palace maids came one after another from the main hall to the blood, one basin after another, the waiters served the emperor on one side with tea and water, smelling the movement of Yanxi Palace, the queen also hurried to come, followed by Dongyang, all of them sat in the shade of the tree and looked at the door of the Xi Concubine's dormitory, the emperor fiddled with the jasper wrench and looked at the vermilion rhombic checkered pattern, the corner of the queen's mouth snickered for a moment, and then the color was like a rosary in the mouth and whispered Buddhist scriptures, Dongyang ran over with a confused face, but because the emperor did not dare to be arrogant, he held back his laughter in his heart, turned his head and was sent away by the queen, to inform the queen motherγ Although I don't know why the Queen Mother was called over in this situation, Dongyang still brought Tang Yue over by the way.
All the doctors on duty in the Tai Hospital, who are good at gynecology, are in the Yanxi Palace, and those who are not on duty are also on duty and go to pass on the horses, but unfortunately the high court with the best medical skills is out of Beijing today! I heard that there is a rare ginseng on a certain mountain outside the city, so I went to collect medicine! I couldn't find it.
"Say, how is Concubine Xi?, what about the child in the womb?" Before the emperor could speak, the queen mother who rushed over hurriedly asked the chamberlain to ask a short question, and the face and tone made the new little medical officer not know how to speak, and said intermittently and tremblingly, "Concubine Xi...... Xi Concubine...... Mother's child...... Can't keep ......"
"What did you say?" The emperor immediately kicked the young man's ass with a gloomy face and a windy body, and the sound exploded in his ears like thunder, and Tang Yue was taken aback.
"What's the fuss!" but it was Taishang who came down with Chongguang in his arms, Chongguang pulled Taishang's hair and smiled stupidly, and the corners of his mouth were still drooling, but it still did not damage the majesty of Taishang in the slightest, "Wasn't Concubine Xi frightened yesterday? Why did she have a miscarriage today? There was a gap of several hours in between! What's going on?"
Since Taishang asked, those who know and don't know have to say one, two, three, and the first to bear the brunt is the chief attendant next to Xi Concubine, Wang Li, who stepped forward a few steps closer to several people in power, hunched over and lowered his eyebrows and whispered back, "Qi Taishang, last night Rui Wang Ye was drunk and scared Xi Concubine Niangniang, at that time, there was red, the imperial doctor prescribed fetal medicine and tranquilizer medicine, this morning Niangniang had no appetite, and used some Fuling mustard sent by Hui Zhaorong with the porridge in the small kitchen. β
"And then you had a miscarriage?" The Queen Mother stopped playing with her rosary hand, and stared at Wang Li with sharp eyes, making people feel like a thorn in the back.
"Yes. β
Tang Yue pulled out Hui Zhaorong's information from the corner of his memory, and contacted the news of last night's wind chimes, why did he think that today's play was a scene?
What is the purpose of singing such a play? What else happened last night? Why did this eunuch's tone seem like King Rui was lightening Concubine Xi? Concubine Xi was pregnant and didn't go out in Yanxi Palace, so how could King Rui bypass several palaces from the Hanguang Palace, where the banquet was held, to come to Yanxi Palace? The guards in the middle are not dead, no matter how noble your status is, the boundary between the inner and outer palaces can always be strictly guarded by soldiers.
But Taishang's face changed, and he didn't say anything considering the presence of the juniors.
After tossing and turning after noon, the imperial doctor came out, and several imperial doctors behind him did not dare to raise their heads, and the humble and cautious appearance made the emperor angry, and forcibly suppressed the anger and said, "Say, what's wrong?"
"Concubine Xi is fine, but she needs to be recuperated for about a year. β
"Where's the kid?"
"The child is a formed male fetus, and it has been dealt with. β
Tang Yue's eyes were sharp, and when he saw the emperor's palm trembling, he almost tore off the jade pendant on his waist, and then he made up his mind and said, "I know." Let's send it to Gokokuji Temple. β
"Yes. β
Tang Yue knew that most of the imperial doctors had also been bought, where did Concubine Xi get the male fetus?
In the evening, Tang Yue looked at the wind chimes and willows, looking at each other speechlessly.
Concubine Xi actually played so big! The entire Tai Hospital! All of them were bought! If there was a disobedient heart, I was afraid that it would be easy to murder the people of the royal family. I don't know when it started, I collected so many things about the invisible people of the Tai Hospital!
Another difficult opponent. Tang Yue put down the teacup, the tea fragrance ran out of the cup and hazy her eyebrows and eyes, only to hear her cold voice like broken celadon and crisp raindrops, "Tell Bai Li." Just when the wind chimes were about to go out, Tang Yue suddenly felt that maybe he could sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and he had an idea, "Princess Rui's Deadpool is almost dead, but the Hiro in her hand is still there, right? β
Wind Chime smiled and said, "Yes, girl." β
Princess Rui is jealous, and when she learns about this, she is afraid that she will make a fuss. Tang Yue thought carefully and said with a smile, "Give the mahogany box on my dresser to Luzhu, let her burn it when King Rui comes, and ask for her name, just say that it is called Dian Lip." β
Xiaolou smoked quilt, in the song of spring dreams. It's a pity that there is a knife on the head of the color word. The joy of the seven killing incense, King Rui, taste it well.
