Chapter 73: The Marriage Giving (I)
Xia Shi was even more ecstatic, the name 'Xia Shi' has always been a pain in her heart, even if no one in the mansion can compete with her, she is also eager to be the real Mrs. Ye, as soon as she heard the emperor say these three words in person, how could she not be excited, and she was busy kowtowing to thank her, but was interrupted by a lazy and mocking voice.
"Mrs. Ye?" Ye Qianmo looked at the smiling Xia with a private smile, but her eyes were like the tranquility of a storm, without a trace of waves, and said: "My mother has been dead for many years, where is the second Mrs. Ye from the General's Mansion?!" She paused slightly, and smiled, "Do you think that as a concubine, you are qualified to handle my marriage?" ”
Hearing this, Xia Shi was ashamed and annoyed, but he also knew that if he didn't deal with it well, he would inevitably become a joke in the mouth of the noble lady of the Manchu Dynasty.
"Mo'er, although I am not your mother, but since my sister died, you have hugged me, after so many years, I have long regarded you as my own flesh and blood, for fear of living up to my sister's trust, I'm sorry master, now that you are older, how can I not worry about your marriage for you?" She took out a handkerchief and wiped her tears, choked up: "I know that I am not your biological mother, and I can't make up for your thoughts about Lord Xuanjun, but you can't ......" She seemed to be sad and couldn't continue.
Fortunately, in order not to make the master suspicious, she was very good to the pair of sisters and brothers, and she couldn't find fault on the big face, although these few times because the girl became too much, she was too impatient, and she didn't do things properly, and the master noticed one or two, but, in front of the emperor, these things, with the master's temperament, will not be said. In this way, everyone will accuse the girl of unfilial piety.
Xia's expectation was good, as soon as these words came out, the voice of dissatisfaction and accusation immediately sounded in the hall, and Ye Qianmo's unfilial piety was said in and out of the words. Even those nobles who were not accustomed to the rampant Xia clan felt that Ye Qianmo's behavior was inappropriate.
When Lord Xuanjun died, Ye Qianmo was only five years old, and she had a deep affection for her mother, and General Ye, who was heartbroken after Lord Xuanjun's death, soon asked for his life and left the capital.
Murong Ming relaxed his body slightly, leaned back on the dragon chair, listened to the noise in the main hall, and glanced at the Queen Mother. He didn't tell the Queen Mother about it, but with the Queen Mother's methods, he must be able to guess a rough idea. If he had such a good mother, why should he talk to a woman again! At this time, it is even more natural for the Queen Mother to intervene.
Murong Ming narrowed his eyes, a sarcasm flashed in his eyes, so fast that people couldn't catch it, except for Zhang Wuda, the chief eunuch who was very close to him and happened to raise his head, Zhang Wuda was startled, and immediately lowered his head, looking at his nose and nose, and until the end of the banquet, he didn't dare to look at the person sitting on the dragon chair again.
Sure enough, the Queen Mother immediately spoke, comforted Xia's words, and said: "You get up first, it's not easy to be a mother in this world, this child is the treasure of parents' hearts, children have parents, they all think they are still young, even if she doesn't do well, you should talk to her well, how can you be so frizzy, you actually cried in this hall, and it doesn't make people laugh!" ”
Ye Qianmo looked at the kind-hearted Queen Mother, and almost laughed out loud, she really deserves to be a person who has been fighting with people in the harem for so long, this is really beautiful. Although every word is saying that Xia's is wrong, but both inside and outside the words are accusing her of making mistakes, it seems that she wants to wear an unfilial hat!
Ye Qianmo looked at the Queen Mother, a smile bloomed on her face, and said: "The Queen Mother is worthy of being a mother, and this experience is also very deep, however, the Queen Mother's reputation for kindness and kindness has long spread throughout Daxing, and the emperor and the eldest princess are both filial people, the Queen Mother naturally 'says and says', but the courtiers are very ashamed, although they have Xia's teachings, they still develop this temperament, unlike the second and third sisters who are quiet and good-tempered. ”
The Queen Mother's hand on the chair clenched suddenly, did she know anything? His face remained unchanged at all, his face was full of kindness, and he said: "Your girl is not only good-looking, but also speaks smartly, in my opinion, she is a good one, the Xia Youyan said that Xia Youyan is a good young man, and you are almost ready, just let the emperor give you a marriage, and the palace can also be happy, your mother was raised by me, and the palace also added some dowry to your little girl." ”
The queen immediately took over the words, covered her mouth with a handkerchief, and said with a smile: "The queen mother is really eccentric, the palace has long been in love with the queen mother, there is a porcelain carved with peonies, I asked for it a few times, and the queen mother is reluctant to give it to the palace, Qianmo, this child is really blessed." ”
The queen mother seemed to be overjoyed by what she said, smiled and helped the palace maid's hand, and scolded with a smile: "You have a pungent temperament, if it weren't for the strict hiding of this palace, you would have been taken away by you, and now you dare to complain to me." ”
"Hey, the queen mother doesn't care about her son, she can only hurt herself."
"That's it, the palace can't say you, after you go back, let the palace maid move it for you, and save you from worrying about the good things of the palace." The Queen Mother waved her hand, very helpless.
The queen's face lit up, she seemed to be very happy, and said with a smile: "The son of the queen thanks the queen mother, how can you bother the queen mother's people, after going back, the son will send someone to get it,"
"You, I think this palace doesn't know your little thoughts, and it's not that I'm afraid that those little palace maids will be clumsy and ruin what you sincerely care about."
The queen smiled: "The sons didn't want to hide it from the queen mother,"
The rise of the two women with the most noble status in Daxing, the mother and son were happy, as if the unhappiness just now had never happened at all, and everyone looked at the Xia family who was still kneeling in the hall, with strange faces.
Could it be that the Queen Mother was dissatisfied with the Xia family and intended to knock and knock? However, the Queen Mother was obviously very satisfied with this Xia just now!
Ye Qianmo was not surprised by the Queen Mother's reaction at all, and glanced at Xia, who was holding on a little hard, and the corners of her mouth were slightly raised. Her words just now were enough to make the Queen Mother think of the matter of the eldest princess, and she wanted to be a 'Holy Mother', how could the Queen Mother, who had left a good name, not panic? However, the queen is not a vegetarian, presumably the queen mother is very uncomfortable at this time, and she is angry to death, but she has to deal with the queen's provocation with a smile, she doesn't believe that the queen will think about the queen mother!
However, this rare 'Hidden Knife in Laughter' is coming to an end, and I'm going to play again!
Sure enough, the Queen Mother immediately changed the topic and said with a smile: "Queen, what do you think of these two children?" "Naturally, it's Ye Qianmo and Xia Youyan.
"The vision of the queen mother and the emperor will naturally not be wrong, and I still want to let the queen mother give Xinrui a family affair." Ping Xinrui, who was standing behind the queen, immediately lowered her head shyly.
The Queen Mother nodded with satisfaction, beckoned her to her side, and looked at the emperor with a smile, "Your Majesty, Qianmo's child's marriage is decided, and Xinrui ......"
"Queen Mother," Ye Qianmo interrupted her, her voice was slightly cold, these people actually ignored her grandfather's father, and decided her marriage in this way, wanting to buy and sell by force, it was really a good calculation, she was sure that there was something wrong with that Xia Youyan, if it was just because of the Xia family, Murong Ming was not Xia Xiang when he first asked!
Do they think they're going to say yes?
The queen was now annoyed, narrowed her eyes, and said unhappily: "Why, the emperor gave you a marriage, aren't you still satisfied?" The Queen Mother's words themselves are a trap, only mentioning the glory of the emperor giving her marriage, but not saying who gave her the marriage.
"It is the honor of the courtiers that the emperor can give the courtiers a marriage," Ye Qianmo smiled faintly, her voice was not in a hurry or slow, "However, this marriage was initiated by the emperor, so the courtiers now want the emperor to fulfill his promise and allow the courtiers one thing," she said word by word, "The courtiers want to marry another person." ”
When Murong Ming heard her request, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Although she is much smarter than she expected, she is still young, since he intends to marry her and Xia Youyan, if there is a person with a little brain, he will not dare to marry her, so she must marry the person he found in the end. And she will eventually become his Murong Ming's woman!
However, there are really bold people in this hall, but this person is very cunning and cunning, and he has nothing to do with brainlessness.
When Murong Chen heard her words, he was dumbfounded, touched his nose, and closed his mouth, Mo Mo didn't follow his method to think of this idea. He likes it, though! He stuffed the note sent by the little eunuch with all the deeds of Xia Youyan into his sleeve, and waited excitedly for his appearance, hey, he wanted to marry the little lady home!
"Who?"
Ye Qianmo inspected the people in the hall, and the man she saw immediately lowered his head, no one is rare, but there is no life, and no one can enjoy it, so it is better to have a good head.
Murong Ming nodded with satisfaction. The eldest princess looked worriedly at Jing Yixuan, who had put down her wine glass, Xuan'er ......, what about Murong Chen?
The eldest princess immediately looked in the direction of the female dependent, and was stunned, she didn't see that person in the seat, but a lazy but joyful voice sounded in her ears, at this moment, the eldest princess didn't know whether she should breathe a sigh of relief, or worry about her Xuan'er?
"Father, my son wishes you to marry her."
Everyone looked at the evil Seventh Prince in amazement, the Seventh Prince had a fever today? And burned out your brain?!
Murong Ming looked at him, but his eyes were like thousands of sharp blades slashing him one by one, ruthless and thirsty for killing, he dared to be, so bold! I think if I spoil you, you can be lawless!
The Queen Mother also accepted the smile on her face, frowned, and scolded unhappily: "Chen'er, don't mess around," Murong Chen is her favorite grandson, and it is not worth it to lose him for a Ye Qianmo.
"Grandmother, your grandson isn't messing around, didn't you urge your grandson to marry a wife earlier, your grandson came according to your ideas, you should be happy," Murong Chen didn't seem to feel the displeasure of the emperor and the queen mother at all, and stood leisurely and said lazily.
