It's just that You's side thought about it well, but I didn't know that when it was about the same, Hou Ningjiao of Yongcheng was also talking to the eldest princess of Jiyang about it: "Jiulang is really too nonsense, my son heard that he went back to Chang'an once during the 'spring' banquet, and returned to the banquet on the same day - he came back to ask his mother to propose to the Minping Marquis Mansion for him?" It's ridiculous! ”

The eldest princess of Ji Yang disagreed, and said, "Ridiculous? Although this candidate is not very desirable to the palace, it sounds okay - Zhuo Jian's grandson's 'daughter', the 'door' is enough, and the background is not high, but it doesn't matter, the palace will mention it to Eleven Lang on a certain day, if the father of this little lady becomes the son of the world, it will be a good match. "Today, he is ranked eleven among the princes of the first emperor, but since he ascended the throne, the only one who can call Eleven Lang as before is the eldest princess Jiyang.

Yongcheng Hou was surprised: "Mother, do you really want to rely on him?" That Minping Marquis is the king of Yanchang County! ”

"What does that matter?" The eldest princess of Jiyang said indifferently, "The holy decree is down, the Zhuo family dares not to let that little lady marry over?" ”

"But in this case, what does the King of Zhending County or the Shao Guo Mansion think?" Although the Marquis of Yongcheng has long known that the eldest princess has always doted on Ning Shaobi, but the eldest princess has never refused to agree to what Ning Shaobi mentioned, and now seeing that the eldest princess of Jiyang is so lightly prepared to let Ning Shaobi really marry the little lady of the Zhuo family, she can't help crying and laughing.

Hearing this, the eldest princess of Ji Yang frowned and said, "What are you talking about?" Is it difficult for Jiulang to marry a wife, but also to see Tang Si and Mu Qingzhi's faces? You help Tang Sigui help Tang Si, Hugh said that he is not even a prince now, even if he has ascended the throne, you are also his serious cousin, no matter relatives, you do your duty in the way of kings and ministers, and you don't need to please him - besides, the palace is still there, if they have anything to say, ask them to ask the palace! "At the end of the sentence, the eldest princess of Jiyang 'revealed' a clear dislike look.

- Man Chang'an knows that if you want to offend the eldest princess as soon as possible, you don't want to say that the eldest princess is not, but against Ning Shaobi's meaning, although compared to Qi Guogong, Yongcheng Hou is also the eldest princess's beloved youngest son, but in the end it is more eccentric than the young grandson of the eldest princess.

The Marquis of Yongcheng sighed and said, "The son doesn't mean that, but everyone in the government and the opposition knows that the son and the Marquis of Minping have always been at odds, but now they want to get married, what is it like?" ”

"What's wrong with that?" The eldest princess of Jiyang said nonchalantly, "It's rare that Jiulang likes a little lady to the point where she wants to marry a wife, and that little lady is not a bad or lowly family, and it's not too insulting to Jiulang's identity, you have such a son under your knees, Bengong raised him with his own hands, and he has never agreed to what Bengong wants as long as he can give it!" Zhuo Jian's granddaughter is naturally no exception! It's just a marquis's grandson', if Jiulang likes it, he is the current county lord and future princess of the East Palace, and the palace will also invite him to give him a holy decree of marriage! ”

Yongcheng Hou smiled bitterly and said: "This marriage is a big ......."

"The palace depends on him everywhere for small things, let alone big things?" The eldest princess of Ji Yang said, "This matter can be done by this palace, you don't have to 'worry about' it." ”

"Mother." Yongcheng Hou said helplessly, "But not long ago, Wen Xiang and his son mentioned his granddaughter, and it is said that his 'temperament' is very virtuous......

The eldest princess of Ji Yang didn't bother to listen at all, so she interrupted: "Since Jiulang is now interested in the little lady of the Zhuo family, this little lady surnamed Wen should not tell this palace, and this palace itself is not a granddaughter who seems to be young!" Who called Wen Zheng's granddaughter' unlucky and couldn't get into the eyes of our Jiulang? ”

"Mother hasn't seen this little lady of the Zhuo family yet, why did she identify her?" Yongcheng Hou had a headache and said, "This little lady was raised in Jiangnan, and his son asked the people around Jiulang, saying that although this little lady was born well, her 'temperament' is not particularly virtuous, and there is no 'color' on the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but she is loved by her maternal grandfather's family, and she is quite squeamish - the son listens, he is not a very 'colorful' person, Jiulang is young, he only looks at his appearance, if he is a concubine, it is nothing, there can only be one wife in this yuan, and the mother has to help Jiulang take care of his eyes!" ”

The eldest princess of Ji Yang twitched her eyelids and said: "It's Jiulang who marries his wife, and it's not you or Bengong who marries his wife, as long as the net worth is innocent, the 'door' is not too insulting Jiulang's little lady, Bengong will not object, the most important thing is that Jiulang likes it!" If you want to say that this so-called top-notch little lady in Chang'an, Jiulang has seen less? Not to mention, the Su Xiaobanniang of the Taishi Mansion was praised as the first talented 'girl' in Guanzhong a few years ago, and she is also a handsome little lady in terms of appearance, and it is the most rare to have the grace of Wei and Jin, but when did Jiulang pay attention to her? You said that the little lady Wen is virtuous, but have you asked Jiulang if he likes the virtuous little lady? ”

The eldest princess said lazily, "The little lady who can't get Jiulang's favor, depending on others, it's not happy to marry into the 'door' to Jiulang, and Jiulang in this palace is not happy, even if the country's 'color' Tianxiang is outstanding and noble, in the eyes of this palace, it is just a waste!" Even if this little lady of the Zhuo family has nothing to do except for a good look, Jiulang just likes her, and hiring her to pass the 'door' can make Jiulang happy, which is enough - our Ning family wants a new 'woman', not a champion! ”

The eldest princess's heart was biased to this point, and the Marquis of Yongcheng couldn't help but be silent, and said after a while: "Mother loves Jiulang, but the son thinks that Jiulang should also be sympathetic to his mother. ”

His words were interrupted by the eldest princess, and the eldest princess said: "Marrying a wife and marrying a virtuous woman is just a general statement, how many men in this world have married a virtuous wife but are still worried, the so-called people have their own advantages, now Jiulang may not like the virtuous little lady, but if he likes it, you will do it according to the standard of virtue, and force this child to marry a virtuous wife and put it at home as decorations, isn't it to add to his blockage?" You are such a son, and the marriage is a big event, you can't let him be wronged! It's not like the water's 'sex' Yang 'flower', who doesn't know the height of the sky and the earth, who calls Jiulang like it? ”

Yongcheng Hou had a headache and said: "Mother, now we haven't seen the little lady of the Zhuo family, just listening to Jiulang's one-sided words - he is now in love with the little lady, so naturally he chooses everything to say, so rashly hired, in case he passes the 'door' but doesn't come up and down with our family......"

"Don't worry about the big house." The eldest princess of Ji Yang misunderstood these words, and said warmly, "Isn't there still this palace?" ”

“…… The son is not worried about this. Yongcheng Hou said helplessly, "My son really doesn't want to marry the Zhuo family!" ”

The eldest princess of Jiyang pondered for a moment and said: "In this way, that little lady has passed the 'door', and she is naturally a member of our Ning family, so she will have less contact with her mother's family in the future, and it is inconvenient for you to say, this palace will personally 'hand' over to her." ”

Obviously, the eldest princess made up her mind to follow her grandson, and the Marquis of Yongcheng couldn't help but say: "The mother of the side matter is just Jiulang, but the fact that this 'door' is not close - now the king of Yanchang County is powerful, although the three ministers of the cabinet are all silent, but the 'daughter' of the high minister married the fifth son of the Marquis of Minping, and there is a faint tendency to move closer to the king of Yanchang County...... Now Wen Xiang took the initiative to ......"

When the eldest princess Ji Yang heard this, she changed color and said: "Why is Eleven Lang still in power, and the palace is useless to the point where it needs children and grandchildren to rely on marriage to consolidate their status?" She took a deep look at the Marquis of Yongcheng and said, "Do you want Jiulang to suffer the grievances you suffered back then?" ”

Yongcheng Hou's face turned pale for a moment, and he said in a low voice after a while: "Mother! ”

"Back then, for Eleven Lang." The eldest princess of Ji Yang said in a deep voice, "You obviously don't like that Hu 'girl', but you have to marry her!" Although the first emperor used this as an excuse to knight you, you were also subjected to ridicule and ridicule...... This palace knows that you have always been very bitter in your heart, and as the son of a princess, you can't even marry a desirable 'girl'! At that time, although this palace felt sorry for you, it couldn't protect you...... But now it's different, the little lady Jiulang wants to marry, we can help him, why don't you agree?

"Is Shen Lige bad for you? Over the years, the palace has never seen a second person love you as much as she does, others told her that you like elegance, she is a Hu 'girl' who can't even speak Chinese, relying on an ordinary Western seat, she learned an authentic Chang'an official dialect in less than a year, and in less than two years, she can be coarse and ink-proof, and compose some poems that are not good or bad; I heard that you love Qian's 'color', she has never made a dress of the side 'color'; you hate her martial arts and strategies are above you, she has never said a word, and has never touched a weapon! Whatever you like, she does her best...... Isn't she virtuous? Don't you have to wait? Doesn't it treat you well? When she died in despair, Jiurou had already begun to remember something, but she never said a bad word about you, and she never 'revealed' any resentment and expectation to you in front of Jiurou, for fear that Jiurou would hate you for it...... Such a wife, even if this palace is your biological mother, you can't say where she didn't do well enough, but have you ever had a smile on your face over the years? ”

The eldest princess of Ji Yang said slowly: "Lang, you must know that our family is different from ordinary families, our family does not lack wealth and power, what we want is nothing more than to live comfortably, what does it mean to marry a noble but unhappy little lady, marry into the 'door' and respect each other like ice?" When it comes to furnishings, whether it is the eldest princess's mansion or your Hou mansion, there are many gold beads and 'jade' utensils, and there is no shortage of a new 'woman' who is noble and recognized as virtuous...... What is missing is a wife that Jiulang likes, which this is what this palace couldn't give you back then, and now it's still on Jiurou, and it's worth the things that have always been remembered! ”

Shen Lige...... I think of the Western Regions with blue eyes and brilliant hair many years ago, the orchid with blue eyes and brilliant hair galloped with a bow and sword, and smiled at himself - those blue eyes were full of admiration and undisguised admiration......

And when she died, her still blue eyes were full of despair and sadness - Chang'an used her as an example to teach his little lady in private, and she was a negative person who had been scolded and ridiculed countless times in the open and in secret, but who knew that if it weren't for the eight-hundred-mile urgent secret decree written by the first emperor himself on the sickbed, the young Ning Jian would never have nodded to Shen Lige's questioning......

To the noble said that he was for the eldest princess of Jiyang for the sake of today, to the despicable said that it was the easiest opportunity for him to obtain the knighthood as the second son, but all shortcuts in this world have a price that comes with them, in the ridicule and banter of Chang'an day after day, the Marquis of Yongcheng has long forgotten what kind of mood he was in when he agreed to marry Shen Lige as his wife, and was there a little bit of emotion that was touched by the bright and warm love of the orchid who was undisguised and unpretentious?

All in all, after marriage, he didn't want to return to the Hou Mansion next to the Eldest Princess's Mansion specially given by the first emperor for many years.

Chenguang has arrived now, and the Marquis of Yongcheng no longer cares about the reputation that occasionally rings about bad luck or crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, many things can alleviate the pain in his heart without regret or deliberate forgetting.

The words of the eldest princess of Ji Yang made him stunned for a long time, and then he said in an ethereal tone: "Just according to what my mother said...... Please ask the mother to ask the saint for a decree......"

"We'll have to wait a few days." Caring for Sun, Princess Jiyang is very thoughtful, this will be the 'chest' of the bamboo, "The peony 'flower' will be imminent, and the nineteenth of next month is the prince's birthday, and now most of the attention of the government and the opposition is at the 'flower' meeting, and the Ministry of Rites should pay attention to a few points of the East Palace, if you go to ask for marriage now, wouldn't you be robbed of the limelight by these two things?" ”
