Chapter 80: Second Prince Meng

Mu Beiyi often gives banquets to the ministers, and if there are concubines in the inner palace among the ministers, they will also invite their concubines to come to the banquet, which is a very dignified thing. For example, the most glorious Xue clan at the moment has been given banquets many times, and the big and small Xue clans have also gone to banquets. But now, there are three men and two women in the pavilion, but they don't recognize any of them.

Mu Beiyi sat on the top seat, wearing court clothes, and he couldn't see his joy and anger, so he only said: "This is the Marquis of Guangping." ”

Pillow Chun was relieved, so he saluted to the chief table: "Master Hou, Mrs. Hou." ”

At the second table sat a young couple, who got up and saluted the pillow. Pillow Chun is not stupid, thinking that it is the prince and the wife of the prince, so he went to help each other: "The Marquis of Guangping is a hereditary lord, where does the lord dare to accept such a gift." As she said this, her eyes looked toward the last table.

At the end of the table sat a young man, who got up slowly, but carefully measured. He saluted, but looked up at Pillow Chun fixedly.

Peach Blossom held the pillow spring, her face turned red, and she whispered: "That's the second son of Meng." ”

…… This. Pillow Chun thought in his heart, how could this second son of Meng, a foreign man, stare at the inner palace maid. His eyes swept towards Mu Beiyi, and he said: "The concubine is a small family, and I have never seen the Hou Ye's family." I don't know if Your Majesty will send a concubine to ...... today."

"Sit down." Mu Beiyi lifted his robe and pointed to one in the banquet.

Mrs. Guangping Hou said: "Speaking of this matter, it is our Meng family who has something to ask for Ming Guiyi. Lejing has explained that Guiyi has the most sacred heart, and today I saw that it was really a famous style, Yurong Lanzi. ”

Mu Beiyi heard it, as if he wanted to be comfortable, but he said proudly: "Now I have a body." ”

Pillow Spring smiled shyly.

Mrs. Guangping Hou's face showed two points of thought, and then showed two points of smile: "Ming Guiyi is blessed." ”

The Marquis of Guangping's sideburns turned gray, and continued: "This matter is also asked by His Majesty's side." Lao Chen only has two sons-in-law, the eldest son Xixun, and he also has a wife. It's just that the second son is a child, but he is not angry. Now he is alone in the year of the crown, and he has nothing to do, and he has no hobbies except writing and reading on weekdays. This seems to be humble, but in fact, he is praising the second son of Meng as a well-educated but pure person.

"It's just that this kid has always been paranoid." Mrs. Guangping Hou sighed lightly, "In order to remember the original wife, I haven't married for three years, and I haven't taken a concubine." The courtiers thought that this child was stubborn and would die alone...... I didn't think that God might be kind, but I sent a woman. This woman was born exactly like the second daughter-in-law of the courtier, and the second son of the courtier had a lover. ”

Pillow Chun was suspicious. I heard Feng Tang explain: "Little Master Ming." During the Cold Food Festival, the second son of Meng saw a female official in the guard of honor, so he refused to marry. The female official was born exactly the same as the deceased Mrs. Meng Ershao, and Mrs. Hou and Master Hou couldn't stand up, so they came to the court to ask for marriage. "It's also a jaw.

"I was very moved to hear that there was such an infatuation." Mu Beiyi took a sip of wine, "Most of the female officials of the honor guard are selected by families with innocent family backgrounds and etiquette, and I also feel that they are a good match, so I agreed." ”

Pillow Chun guessed in a moment: "Could it be the sweetheart of the second son of Meng...... It's ......"

Mrs. Hou said with a smile: "The courtiers were very happy when they got permission, so they went to look for the female officials, but they didn't see the one that day. Later, I heard Feng Tang's father-in-law mention that there was a girl who could be used by Ming Guiyi's side with the honor guard that day. The courtier told her second son about it, but she didn't think about the child, but she said that even if she was a sweetheart, whether it was a noble girl or a commoner, she would not regret it. ”

Meng Ergongzi got up again. He was a little emaciated, and he was quite handsome, and he arched his hand towards the pillow spring: "A certain courage, ask to marry the peach blossom girl on Ming Guiyi's side, and hope that Ming Guiyi will be fulfilled." ”

Pillow Chun's fingertips tingled when he heard it, and his heart was horrified. First, he glanced at Mu Beiyi.

This matter sounds like a happy event at first glance, according to the meaning of the Marquis of Guangping, it is a good story of love at first sight, and the rich and the poor are unswerving. But if you talk about it, it is because the concubine is not strict, so there is a matter of this slave and maid seducing your son.

Mu Beiyi took a drink in the upper seat, and his face was still as usual.

Only then did Peach Blossom come to her senses, and knelt at the feet of Pillow Chun with a pop, frightened and panicked, and her speech was out of proportion: "Miss Eleven, the slave maid is unintentional......"

Pillow Chun pressed the peach blossom shoulder slightly, fixed his mind for two points, and asked tentatively: "Mrs. Hou, there are so many harem female histories, but do you really not recognize the wrong person?" ”

Mrs. Guangping Marquis bowed her head and said sharply: "This is also what Gonggong Feng beside His Majesty has carefully argued according to the portrait of the daughter-in-law of the courtier. As he spoke, he took out a portrait from his sleeve and unfolded it to see that it was a woman depicted in the painting.

The picture in the painting is the deceased Second Mrs. Meng, which is exactly the same as the peach blossom, but it has been five years ago. The appearance of the peach blossom is still a symbol, but the expression is different from the portrait of Mrs. Meng. Second Mrs. Meng's eyes were gentle, and she bowed her head timidly. And the peach blossom looks lively, and her gestures are also happy, and there is no half of everyone's introverted silence.

The Marquis of Guangping said: "Your Majesty, the old minister has served the Mu family for three generations, and now he only has two sons under his knees. The second child is a bull temper, so he recognized that nine cows couldn't pull it back. The old minister knew that this was not in accordance with the rules, but he couldn't bear to see his flesh and blood childless. ”

Pillow Spring with a sleeve face, think carefully. This Guangping Hou family, Lord Hou and Mrs. Hou came forward together to ask for a palace lady for their son-in-law, and they thought they loved this child very much. This is also due to the fact that the Marquis of Guangping has a solid family, and the eldest son who wants to attack the lord is angry, so the younger son does not have to marry for the benefit of authority, and can pursue the person he loves in his heart. Thinking about it this way, the Marquis of Guangping Mansion is still a humane family.

"Please allow Your Majesty, Ming Guiyi's permission." Meng Er Gongzi is very serious.

Mu Beiyi was noncommittal, glanced at Pillow Chun, and then looked at the second son of Meng, and said lightly: "On that day, the Marquis of Guangping Mansion was safe, and I begged me to give me a marriage that was a good match." I originally meant to be Ming Guiyi's sister-in-law, so I asked her to send a palace lady to pass the word. ”

Pillow Chun breathed a sigh of relief. Mu Beiyi's temper is difficult to fathom, and now he says this, but he intends to put aside the peach blossoms out of the palace and pick the pillow spring. I don't think he's annoyed, and he doesn't mind. It's just that the marquis and noble's family asked to marry a palace maid, but it was not good to hear about it, so he couldn't make up his mind.

Although Peach Blossom is a little straightforward, she is not stupid, she naturally knows the stakes, and kowtows and hurriedly says: "It's all slaves and maids who are not good, but they just stood in the ranks of female officials, which made Meng Ergongzi misunderstand." ”

As soon as he said this, Mu Beiyi's face softened a little. The Marquis of Guangping misunderstood that Peach Blossom was a female official, and came to ask to marry a female official instead of a palace maid, which is reasonable. The female officials of the Great Wei State are good families in all the affairs of the front court and the inner court, and the female officials in charge are even more noble women, which are very decent. The female official in the vestibule gave marriage to the noble family, which has always been a classic to be examined, and it is not abrupt.

When Meng Ergongzi saw Peach Blossom kowtowing, his face showed two points of distress, so he simply took his robe and knelt down, and Chen said: "Your Majesty Mingjian, this is not to blame Peach Blossom Girl, it is because we didn't inquire clearly, so we came to ask Your Majesty to marry." It's just that the maid of the young master and concubine of the previous dynasty also married Anxi Duhu as his wife, which is rumored to be a good story. I also heard that the continuation of the chief emperor of the dynasty was also a master of ceremonies Gong E, who later helped the emperor sort out the Le Jingzhi to benefit education, and His Majesty also gave him the title of Lady of the Decree. ”

Mu Beiyi narrowed his eyebrows and smiled: "You remember clearly." ”
