Chapter 100: The Virtuous Son-in-law
Cai Jing went home on the front foot, Wang Han came to the door with a slightly complaining expression, and after meeting, he got straight to the point, "Wang came today and had nothing else, just ask, what is wrong with my wife Li, who wants to be expelled from Tokyo under the name of Yuan You's traitorous party?" What is the law? What about that? This is how the imperial court treats the heroes of the expansion of the land and the opening of the border? ”
Cai Jing was stunned when asked, and didn't seem to understand, where did Wang Han start asking. Rhetorical question, "Li Qingzhao was expelled from Tokyo?" ”
Wang Han's eyes widened, Cai Jing didn't know about this? He wasn't so nervous on his face, but he hummed secretly in his heart, pretending to be quite like.
Cai Jing is the most treacherous, he has been an official in Tokyo for many years, from the time of Wang Jinggong to operate, before and after decades, but also as the Kaifeng Mansion Yin, the relationship in his hands is very wide, everything inside and outside Tokyo City, everything is known.
As small as a few cents worth a lollipop in the folk, to whether the emperor today is thin or dry, Cai Jing knows everything well, and it is impossible for Li Qingzhao to be kicked out of Beijing He doesn't know about such a big thing.
Cai Jing knew, but he knew it relatively late, knowing that the official family had already closed the coffin of the Yuanyou party, Cai Jing had thought about whether to rescue Li Qingzhao, but listening to Zhao Ting's words, Wang Han didn't seem to like Li Qingzhao very much.
Li Qingzhao is a talented woman, Wang Han is a rude martial artist, the two have no common language, the relationship is not harmonious, according to rumors, Wang Han once went to a brothel to spend the night, but lied to Li Qingzhao that it was to follow Lin Lingsu to travel to Tokyo at night, but the next day the two went shopping and met the brothel lady, the young lady smiled and greeted Wang Han, saying that there was still a surplus of yesterday's expenses, and it was not used up, if it was abandoned, it would be a pity. This incident made Wang Han blush, and Li Qingzhao was angry and did not allow Wang Han to go to bed for three or four days, and sarcastically said that a manly husband, he would prostitute himself, and if he didn't prostitute, he didn't prostitute himself, and he didn't dare to admit it, what kind of hero he was!
It was also since then that the relationship between the two went downhill, there were many contradictions between husband and wife, and the mother-in-law of the Wang family couldn't see it, so she thought about going to Zhao Shize to confess her relatives, in order to give her son a long face.
Therefore, Cai Jing did not ask much about this matter. Anyway, Wang Han is young, but he is just marrying a new wife, what a simple matter - who made Li Gefei a traitor of Yuan You, what is it if his daughter is suspended, and he is blessed by his ancestors if he does not cut off his head.
Unexpectedly, Wang Han reacted so violently to his wife's expulsion from Tokyo, and even dared to confront himself in person, which made Cai Jing very unhappy.
But after all, he is an old fox, knowing that the affairs of the court are changing rapidly, today's little official, he is the prime minister of the day, this is possible, after all, he is a hero who has opened up the territory, can not conflict with it, try not to conflict with it. He was stunned for a moment, and then reassured, "I don't know about this, General Zhao don't worry, sit down and speak slowly." ”
Cai Jing sang with a red face, and Wang Han was not good at white-faced, so he used his anger to vent his complaints: Even if I am a relative of the Zhao family, I can't marry the Yuan You traitorous party, Li Qingzhao visited the church in the second year of Chongning, and there are matchmakers and concubines, and many people in the court have eaten wedding banquets, how can it be considered irregular? This matter is unreasonable, and I must be explained.
Cai Jing understood this and explained Wang Han, "No one is to blame for this matter, Mrs. Ronghua will not find the Marquis of Huaiyang, and she will not be involved in this matter." According to the law of etiquette, the children of the Zhao clan must report to the record when they marry their relatives, and the official family will only be considered orthodox after approval. If you want to explain, you can only find the official family and Mrs. Ronghua. ”
Mrs. Ronghua, who is Wang Han's biological mother Zhang, is now taken back to the Hou Mansion by Zhao Shize in accordance with the etiquette, and the official family gave her the title of Mrs. Ronghua.
Although Wang Han was annoyed, Cai Jing's words were reasonable, so that he had nowhere to vent his anger, so he had to walk back and forth indoors, his eyes wide open, as if he wanted to eat people, and finally held back a sentence, "Ma Gebi!" I don't care, then I'll find an official and ask him to issue an edict and bring Li Qingzhao back! ”
Cai Jing hurriedly persuaded: "By all means, the case of Yuan You has been decided, you go to the official family theory, so that the official family will have face?" Even if you are reasonable, if the official family relents because of you, there will be ten and hundreds of similar things in the court, don't talk about you, the prince of Yan Wang can't avoid it, he and the daughter of Han Zhongyan's family will only get married in three days, and the marriage contract will also be abolished by a decree. ”
Wang Han said: "That's unmarried, I've already visited the church and slept with me." ”
Cai Jing waved his hand and smiled, "Clear, clear, and calm, the court is an official, you can't be so upright, you have to be smooth and flexible." ”
Wang Han raised his eyebrows slightly, thoughtfully.
While talking, two maids came up with tea, and a girl in an emerald green shirt stepped out behind the screen, with bright eyes and bright teeth, and when she saw Wang Han, she covered her mouth and smiled, and turned around to leave. was stopped by Cai Jing, "Xiang'er is messing around, why don't you go forward to salute when you see General Zhao." ”
The girl's face was crimson, she stepped away in small steps, jingled and said, timidly walked up to Wang Han, and bowed slightly, "The slave family has seen General Zhao." Said that the perfect eyes tossed, peeked at Wang Han, his eyes were evasive, shy, and he didn't dare to look more.
According to the customs of the Great Song Dynasty, girls who have not left the pavilion can not see male guests casually, and if they do, it is the intention of the host family to allow guests. Wang Han is a human spirit, how can he not understand this truth.
was originally angry with Cai Jing, thinking that the traitor was embarrassing himself by driving Li Qingzhao away, but the little old man arranged for his daughter to come out to see him, and he also gave birth to a twelve-point marker, which made Wang Han uncertain.
Could it be that driving Li Qingzhao out of Tokyo was not done by Cai Jing?
Thinking about it, I wondered, Cai Jing is the prime minister of the dynasty, in terms of authority, one person is above ten thousand people, and he is guilty of embarrassing a married woman? If you want to embarrass yourself, why give yourself a daughter? How credible are the words of praise?
is doubtful at the moment, and it is not easy to show it, but he has seen Cai Xiang.
Cai Jing laughed and waved his hand, Cai Xiang left flutteringly, Cai Jing took a sip of tea, and when he saw Wang Han pondering, he smiled, "What does General Zhao think of the little girl?" ”
This is to take the initiative to promise his daughter to Wang Han, but it also gave Wang Han a problem.
refused, that is, he did not know how to lift, and offended Cai Jing from then on. Agreed, how does Li Qingzhao arrange it?
This has nothing to do with morality, only with one's own future.
Wang Han is here to do big things, the main line is to seek development for himself, and women are second.
After only thinking about it for two seconds, Wang Han replied, "Ling Qianjin is beautiful and graceful, which is rare in the world." ”
Cai Jing smiled, "If Ling Wu doesn't dislike it, how about allowing you to be a virtuous helper?" ”
Wang Han was about to speak, Cai Jing stretched out his hand to stop him, and continued: "Xiang'er has studied under her uncle since she was a child, she is good at writing, can paint, and is proficient in poetry and songs, but she is not used to showing her face, and she is not known in the deep boudoir. ”
After speaking, he greeted the little maid Yuanfeng, "Take Xiang'er's mandarin duck playing in the water." ”
Yuanfeng went to get the embroidery, and Wang Han immediately saluted: "Thanks to my father's love, I am grateful." ”
In this way, Cai Jingxi smiled and stretched out his hand to help, "A virtuous son-in-law doesn't need to be polite, it is really an old man's luck to have a son-in-law like this." ”
Cai Jing was happy, naturally he had one more son-in-law of the dragon and phoenix among the people. Wang Han is happy, which means another thing.
There are women who send each other, and the posture is not bad, so naturally the one who comes does not refuse, not to mention that the father-in-law is Cai Jing. As for Li Qingzhao, he is naturally still a wife, and Cai Xiang gave him the position of a flat wife, which can be regarded as an explanation.
Of course, this kind of remark will not be brought up in front of Cai Jing at this moment, otherwise, Cai Jing will immediately turn his face.
The daughter of the dignified prime minister, whoever she marries must be a wife, it is impossible to be an equal wife, and besides, with Wang Han's current official status, it is not enough to marry a flat wife.
