Episode 23: Youth Tour
At this moment, Jian Huaizhen hesitated, bowed his head and thought about how to refuse. Zhu Di saw that she lowered her head, just thinking that her daughter's family was shy, and she was afraid that she was willing in her heart, so she smiled and said: "In this case, I am not an unreasonable person. Jian Shangshu, do you have any objections to this marriage? ”
Jian Shihong was very hesitant as if he was sitting in a deep retort and was steamed. If he refuses, he is afraid that he will save the face of Zhu Di and Li Yuanzheng; If it is promised, the consequences will be even more unimaginable. He looked embarrassed and hesitated: "This ...... After all, I still have to ask Zhen'er what he means. ”
Zhu Di was very unhappy with his answer, but he still turned his head and asked in a hard voice: "Jian Huaizhen, you-"
Before Zhu Di's words were finished, a person suddenly stood up at the end and said, "The emperor must not!" Miss Jane's family and her ministers are in love with each other, and they have already secretly agreed to the Mandarin League. The two of us will not marry if we are not kings, and we will not marry if we are not kings. The king should be the rock, and the concubine should be the pu reed, and the pu reed is like silk, and the rock has no transfer. If the emperor agrees to the marriage of the king of Joseon, won't it become a mandarin duck? ”
The person who spoke was dressed in a golden flying fish suit, his demeanor was arrogant, his face was a little unruly, and his eyes were shining. It was Ji Gang's son Ji Aihan.
The canopy hall was suddenly hoarse and silent, as quiet as the lonely midnight when the moon was in the sky. It's just that anyone can feel it, like a dark tide surging under the moonlight.
"Your Majesty, our Great Tomorrow Dynasty, the beauties of the southern country, the rouge of the northern land, there are countless of them. A good woman is not the only one who is a good woman. Since Zhen'er and the son of Master Ji's family really love each other, why don't the emperor help Yuan Zheng choose another good mate? Seeing that Zhu Di was already furious, Wang Guifei hurriedly stroked his hand and comforted him softly.
Concubine Quan Xian actually said to Li Yuanzheng with a smile on the side: "The king was a hero at that time, since Miss Jian already has a heart, why should the king be strong?" What's more......" Her eyes were faint, and she only said the most ordinary things: "I heard that there is a daughter of the Yao family in Kaijing called Yao Wanyin, who is a versatile girl, and the most rare thing is to have a heart for the king and make a heart. Why should the king refuse to be thousands of miles away? ”
When Li Yuanzheng heard this, his face suddenly became solemn and respectful, and after pondering for a moment, he actually saluted: "What Niangniang said is very true." ”
Jian Huaizhen was also stunned, on weekdays, she saw that Concubine Quan Xian had no quarrel with the world, and she was as light as a chrysanthemum, but she never thought that she was also a very scheming woman. It's just that he enjoys the love of his husband on weekdays, and he is too lazy to calculate.
The Yao clan of Kaijing is a unique famous family in the Joseon Dynasty, "since the Taejo of Goryeo, it has been prosperous for three generations, and it has been prosperous for three generations, and it has been prosperous for Muxi, and it has been very prosperous in North Korea, and after independence, Yu Fang still exists." In the past thousand years, heroes and handsome, famous and virtuous, shoulder to shoulder, glorious prehistory, lush like a forest, generation of great people, brilliant in the annals of history. ”
Since the founding of the Joseon Dynasty in the 24th year of Hongwu and the 20th year of Yongle, the Joseon Dynasty has only gone through 30 years and four emperors. The foundation is very unstable and urgently needs the support of famous families. As the head of the Wang clan, the Kaijing Yao clan naturally needs to be the first to be encircled. Therefore, after listening to Concubine Quan Xian's persuasion, Li Yuanzheng weighed the pros and cons and immediately complied with her wishes.
Li Yuanzheng took the initiative to give up the proposal of peace and affinity, and Zhu Di was still angry. He forcibly held back his rising anger, and rebuked Jian Shihong and Ji Gang: "Go back and take care of your sons and daughters!" Jian Shihong and Ji Gang had to bow their heads and say, "The minister obeys the order." ”
After the banquet, the people brought by Li Yuanzheng were placed in the Tongtong Pavilion and the Siyi Pavilion to live. Zhu Di left surrounded by several concubines, and the princes and grandsons also dispersed.
Jian Huaizhen walked out of the Huagai Hall alone, walked along the Imperial Garden, and walked towards the Changchun * Palace. After walking not far, she met a person, it was Ji Aihan who had just relieved her of the siege on the Huagai Palace.
The various colors of peonies in the imperial garden bloom just right, the large clusters of petals are clustered together, the red sun is like fire, the pink is elegant and indifferent, the white is soft like snow, just like the beautiful woman cut all kinds of new clothes, flowers and branches are spread in the breeze of May. From a distance, it looks more like a splendid splendid horse, blooming with a pleasant glow in the sky.
Jian Huaizhen stood among the bright flowers in spring, his bright eyes were lightly raised, his teeth were slightly opened, and he asked, "Why do you want to help me?" ”
Ji Qihan looked at her and smiled indulgently: "I shouldn't help you, I should only help myself." ”
Jian Huaizhen stared at him silently. His complexion was drowned in the spring sun. For a moment, Jian Huaizhen actually felt that there was a sadness hidden in his eyes, but he couldn't see it clearly.
Ji Kaihan crossed his arms and said slowly, "Do you want to listen to my story?" ”
Jian Huaizhen smiled lightly: "Aren't you going to tell me?" ”
The corners of Ji Xianhan's lips were actually stained with a faint chill, he raised his head and looked at the swallows flying by, and said slowly: "When I was very young, my father sent me to Zhongnan Mountain to learn art. In the spring of the year I was seventeen, I chased a sika deer into the mountains and was accidentally bitten by a poisonous snake and fell into a coma. She saved me! ”
Ji Qihan was immersed in memories, and a trace of sweetness appeared on his arrogant and uninhibited face: "Her name is Jing Hengdi." It's an innocent and immaculate girl. She is as quiet as an orchid in the deep mountains, and as dusty as a hibiscus in clear water. When I woke up and saw her for the first time, I knew I was in love with her. For I have never seen such a pure woman. She and an elderly mother-in-law lived in a thatched hut deep in the mountains, raising a lot of chickens, ducks and hares, and a large area of vegetables and grain was planted in front and back of the hut. ”
When Ji Qihan said this, his face raised even higher. Jian Huaizhen just listened quietly, and didn't think about him. She deeply understood that he held his head high, for fear that as soon as he lowered his head, a man's tears would flow out.
The old woman died soon after, and her days in the mountains became more and more lonely. I went to see her every day, and it was the most memorable day of my life. It wasn't long before we fell in love. I thought we could be carefree people in the mountains for the rest of our lives, but who ------knows," he paused and continued, "Who knew that my father would send someone to Zhongnan Mountain to pick me up. I went to see Hengdi, and she went back to the capital with me. She cried like a cry, but she never went with me. I knelt down and begged her, and she told me that she was Jingqing's granddaughter who had escaped the disaster at the beginning. She didn't want to bother me, so she couldn't come with me. ”
Jian Huaizhen naturally knew about Jingqing, Jingqing was a jinshi in the Hongwu period, and served as the imperial historian in the Jianwen period. Later, Zhu Di launched the Battle of Jingjing, and after seizing Jianwen, he kept Jingqing in his original position. Jingqing surrendered on the surface, hid a murder weapon and entered the court, wanting to assassinate Zhu Di to avenge Emperor Jianwen. After the matter was revealed, Zhu Di was furious, and he still didn't understand his hatred when Jing Qingli died, and he punished his ten clans and killed his villagers.
Ji Kaihan's eyes were covered with a layer of water vapor, and he said with a look of grief and indignation: "I begged for the transverse flute for three days and three nights, and she was finally willing to return to the capital with me." I told my dad that I was going to marry Hengdi, and my dad agreed without even thinking about it. I rejoiced with the flute, but on the day we got married, the flute was gone. I went crazy looking for her. Later, my father told me that it was he who sent Feng Wuhen to capture the flute and hand it over to the imperial court for execution. It turned out that he already knew the true identity of Hengdi, and agreeing to our marriage was just a false and wrongful affair to us. Since then, I've been against my dad in everything, and I'm going to do what he doesn't like. People he doesn't like, I'm going to help. ”
Jian Huaizhen's eyes were a little clear and moist for a while, and she asked, "Is the transverse flute still alive now?" ”
Ji Qihan was stunned, and he was overwhelmed with sorrow: "Although I have never seen her corpse, I heard that Feng Wuhen put Heng Di in the prison of the Criminal Department. Can people who come to that kind of place come out alive? ”
Jian Huaizhen sighed in his heart: The two should be the same after the desolation, and the most invincible is the moonlight. It's a pity that even though he has thoughts, the man has withered like a pale and withered peony flower. Even if there is a heart to remember, as the years pass like annual rings, there is no evidence, and the dream is difficult to reconcile.
She finally understood why Ji Kaihan wanted to save her against Ji Gang's will in Duixiu Mountain that day. Today in the Huagai Palace, Ji Kaihan would rather offend the emperor than give up his life to help her. It turns out that after his bleak love is barren and without a trace, he just wants revenge.
Revenge on one's loved ones, what a heart-splitting pain it is.
