Although the order is more principled and cannot tarnish the royal bloodline, since it is ordered to conceal the marriage, it can only be completely accepted, not to mention, there is Shen Mingzhao, the first minister of the imperial court, standing aside, and he will not do anything that offends the emperor and the Shen family.

"Prince Ren, you can also go and say something, if the old prince can't figure it out, please take care of the elder of the sect." Emperor Yongchang kicked the ball out.

Zong Ling turned his head and saluted Shen Mingzhao: "This matter is indispensable for Lord Shen to come forward. ”

"I should share the emperor's worries." Shen Mingzhao saluted the emperor, and then saluted the lord of the sect order, and the sect order also hurriedly returned the salute, Shen Mingxi stepped forward and took the arm of the sect order: "If the lord has something, Mingxi will not stand idly by." ”

Shen Mingxi is a cabinet minister without an official position, in the official circle of the capital, everyone knows that he has an unusual relationship with the emperor, and some people would rather provoke Shen Mingzhao than dare to provoke him publicly.

Shen Mingzhao is a man who pays attention to righteousness and brightness, but Shen Mingxi doesn't care about anything, as long as he doesn't make the emperor angry, he dares to use any bad tricks, and he will repay it, over time, as long as it is not to the extent that his life is at stake, people can hide from him.

However, Shen Mingxi also has his own bottom line, that is, he only sweeps the snow in front of his house, and he doesn't care about his brother's affairs, he is not an official, and there are few conflicts with people.

Otherwise, Shen Mingzhao's official son would not be able to stand it, the brothers joined forces, and the emperor would not allow it, except for this time, it was about Qian Jun, the nephew of the Shen family, and the common relative of the brothers.

Zong Ling is also a smart person, there is an undercurrent surging between these people, of course he can feel that this matter is extraordinary, he withdrew from the upper study, he did not immediately go to Prince Ren's mansion, he did not want to provoke Prince Ren, therefore, this trip to the palace, must be prepared. The old man sat in the study at night, from how to speak, to how to transition, and even Prince Ren's possible attitude, he thought and thought about it, and then wrote a post, which was sent the next day.

Later, in dealing with household affairs, he was good at taking into account the interests of all parties, and he was eloquent, and he was always able to persuade all parties to make appropriate compromises, and perfectly maintain the harmony and dignity of the clan, so that he gradually won the support of the clansmen, until the old Zongling died, and he was elected to take over.

Prince Ren saw Zongling's visit, his intuition was not to discuss clan affairs with himself, but about his son's affairs to be a lobbyist, he thought that he must have been entrusted by the Shen family, and he was very dissatisfied, his ex-wife had been dead for many years, and the Shen family had been pulling and pulling with him through his son, and even secretly pointed fingers, Prince Ren always remembered that in that marriage, his wife put great pressure on him, although those made him progress and won the unanimous respect of the court, but a man's self-esteem was still greatly hurt, He hated the Shen brothers. Qian Jun was also somewhat dragged down by his uncle and was not loved by his father.

No matter how disgusted Prince Ren was, he still invited Zongling to enter the door.

Lord Zongling Qian Guang is a generation older than Prince Ren, the title is not as high as him, but the grade is the same, therefore, Prince Ren salutes first, Zongling returns the salute, and the two of you come and I are polite, and then I sit down and start talking.

"Lord Zongling's noble deeds are here to kick the cheap land today, but he is here for the dog?"

Zong Ling was stunned for a moment, all the preparations were broken, he smiled clearly, since there is no need to go around in circles, then come straight, he nodded: "Yes, the emperor entrusted me to come." ”

"Your Majesty?" This was different from the Shen family brothers speculated by Prince Ren, he was very surprised, and then guessed that it was the Shen family brothers who asked the emperor for help, and his face became very ugly.

Zong Ling saw that his face was pale, and said cautiously: "The emperor also feels very sorry for you for this, when the prince suffered a head injury, he forgot the past, followed a group of tea merchants to the Tartar tribe, and became friends with the little prince of Huluner, in order to let him complete the purpose of dividing the Tartars, the emperor asked him to remain incognito." This, don't blame the child, loyalty and filial piety can't be both. ”

Prince Ren was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect his son to be on the emperor's orders.

Lord Zong Ling paused for a moment and continued: "The marriage between Ling Lang and Miss Xiao is also approved by the emperor, and in the next few days, the emperor will make this matter public, and he is also ready to give them a marriage and restore their reputations." ”

As soon as the marriage was mentioned, Prince Ren's face was very unsightly.

Zong Ling added: "The prince was already not young back then, and he still had to be incognito, how could he marry a noble girl who was in the right household?" It just so happens that he is not the eldest lady of the Xiao family? In order to let him feel at ease to do things for the court, the emperor asked Xiao Yi to marry his daughter. ”

"Humph!" Thinking that it was a little different from what the emperor said a few days ago, Prince Ren understood what was going on, but now, he didn't dare to confront the emperor, so he could only swallow bitterly.

"Prince Ren, Xiao Yi is also a good person, I heard that his daughter is beautiful, even if she can't marry such an outstanding son, she can marry a good man, marry the prince so quietly, if it weren't for the emperor's will, he would definitely be unwilling, I heard that he loves his ex-wife and children very much."

Prince Ren's face was slightly better, since it was the emperor's intention, then Xiao Yi would not take advantage of it.

"The emperor asked the lower official to be responsible for the return of the Linglang couple, and the lower official thought, you are the father of the child, what should you do, I have to discuss with you."

"Since it's the emperor's will, you can do what your lord wants." Prince Ren is still very loyal to the emperor and has no habit of disobedience, but seeing that his calculations are not used at all, he is in a very bad mood, and said with a sullen face: "The emperor directly issued an order to the minister's mansion, why do you have to go around such a big circle?" ”

"The emperor said that you were emotional that day, and he was worried that you would have a heart attack, so he had to suppress these words and didn't say them."

Zong Ling didn't say the words "The emperor is ashamed and can't face you, so he has to send the old minister to take this trip", but hinted to Prince Ren: "It's true that the emperor is a junior, but he is the supreme monarch of our court, and his deep meaning is not something that our ministers can talk about in vain." ”

Prince Ren replied sullenly,

"The emperor did not move a single soldier to solve the dispute in northern Xinjiang, this farsightedness, how many people in the past dynasties can do it? Ling Lang coincidentally made great contributions to the imperial court, presumably Prince Ren is also proud, right? ”

Seeing the envy on the face of Lord Zongling, Prince Ren's heart felt a lot better, although he suffered from being deceived, but what he gained was the admiration of the entire clan and even all the courtiers of the Jurong Dynasty, which was also a very cost-effective thing, he couldn't help nodding slightly, but his mouth was still unwilling to soften: "The dog just went out like that, and there has been no news for several years, if it weren't for the affairs of the court, and the emperor's son, see if I don't beat him out with a stick." ”

"Hehe, there are so many people in our clan, how many people can compare with you, they have made great contributions to the court, no matter how good the son is, it is just the icing on the cake, unlike other people, if there is a son like Ling Lang, the family does not know how proud and glorious it is, where is it willing to beat it with a stick, and it will already send someone to meet it in the ten-mile long pavilion."

"Hahaha" Prince Ren originally wanted to be modest, but he couldn't help the happiness in his heart, and he was still amused by the sect order, he easily closed his mouth and disguised himself, "Look at what the lord said, it is the duty of our clan to share worries for the court, and the dog just happened by chance." ”

"Ahem, look at what Prince Ren said, even if it's a duty, not everyone has the opportunity to do it."

"Well, that's right." Prince Ren couldn't help but nodded, in fact, he was still very proud of his son's ability in this regard, he knew that such an opportunity, even if it was given to the rest of the clan fairly, it might not be as good as Qian Jun.

Zong Ling saw that the gloom in Prince Ren's eyes was swept away, and he knew that the time had come, so he hit the railroad while it was hot: "Prince Ren, for the honor of you and Ling Lang, the emperor wants to tell the world about Qian Jun's incognito, even if it causes the recurrence of northern Xinjiang affairs, the emperor's deep friendship with Prince Ren's mansion is really enviable." "The sect order can be in charge of the clan's affairs as a side branch of the clan, how can it be done without some means? After this sycophant shooting, Prince Ren would not be able to find the north for a long time.

Only a very small number of people can remain calm in the face of fame, and most people will always lose themselves flutteringly, right now, Prince Ren is like this, the resentment and sadness of the first two days have all been swept away, and he enjoys the compliments of Lord Zongling, along with his dissatisfaction with Xiao Yi, he has also been temporarily thrown out of the clouds.

Lord Zong Ling struck while the iron was hot, and said to Prince Ren: "The prince might as well take the initiative to enter the palace and discuss with the emperor how to arrange the marriage of the child." ”

"Okay, okay!"

"Then, how about letting Uncle go with you? It is indispensable to have a good look at Qin Tianjian and find an auspicious day of the zodiac, our clan relatives should also be lively and lively together, the royal family has not held a *** happy event for a long time. ”

"Okay, thank you, Lord Zongling, with your help, I think this matter will be more appropriate and lively."

Zong Ling immediately pulled Prince Ren, and the two entered the palace hand in hand, he must not give Prince Ren a chance to contact the women of the Prince's Mansion, otherwise, this victory will not be saved.

The emperor was very surprised that Lord Zongling had done things so beautifully, and even Shen Mingzhao, who was discussing with the emperor on the side of the important affairs of the imperial court, was surprised, and he even considered whether to suggest that the emperor change the position of Lord Zongling, so many important matters in the court have to be dealt with, and it is a pity that such a capable talent is buried in family affairs. But Zong Ling is already a first-class member, unless he is allowed to enter the cabinet directly, Shen Mingzhao withdrew from the upper study, still bowing his head and thinking about this possibility.

Although Qian Jun expected that his return would definitely not be smooth sailing, he did not expect so many people to participate. On this day, he received a letter from Prince Ren, saying that he would let him linger outside the capital for two days, and wait for the ninth day of the sixth month to enter the city, and the palace would hold a reception banquet for him on that day.

Qian Jun held the letter in his hand, and couldn't help but tremble, no matter how determined he was, he was really excited to be able to make his wife and son justify his name and achieve the best result he expected.

Wen Jin didn't think it was good, living in Prince Ren's mansion, she had to face that annoying woman, and she had to lower her eyebrows and not disobey, her road as a "little daughter-in-law" was not easy to walk.

Seeing the man's emotions high, Wen Jin can certainly understand what the name brings to the right, there are gains and losses, although she will have some small setbacks, but in exchange for a good life of peace and joy for the family, Wen Jin feels that it is still worth it.

There are still more than 20 miles, Qian Jun chose a clean and spacious inn to live in, and when that day, Wen Jin got up early, she cleaned up herself, her husband and children, and was ready to face new challenges.

The family set off at the end of the day, and when the sun just shone on the roof ridge on the top of the city gate tower, they came to the Shili Pavilion. Qian Jun saw someone running over from afar, and his heart couldn't help beating wildly.

"Shen Qian in the villain Lord Shen's mansion has seen Prince Ren's son!"

"The villain Zheng Zaixin has seen the prince of the world!"

"The villain Zheng Yan, I have seen the prince of the world!"

"Get up, all of you." Seeing these two people, Qian Jun couldn't help but smile, Zheng Zaixin has been sitting in the capital in the past few years and has done a great job, this Zheng Yan is the son of his lobby brother, and now he is Zheng Zaixin's right-hand man.

The last one to see the salute was an older one: "The prince of the world, the prince of Ren is here to greet the young, the house is ready, Mao is entering the city gate, it is the auspicious time, Chen is entering the palace gate, the mansion is up and down, the auspicious stars are shining, the old man lives a long life, and the children are smart and strong!" ”

Qian Jun heard that this time was not the best for their husband and wife, but he couldn't care about it, so he answered and ordered the coachman to start.

Qian Jun's excited emotions infected Jin Jin and Qian Qian, and the two little guys were clamoring for Wen Jin's car to be with their mother, Qian Jun agreed, and asked the nurse to bring the child over.

Jin Jin's eyes widened and he quietly asked, "Mother, will my grandfather like me as much as my grandfather?" ”

Wen Jin didn't dare to answer for sure, so he had to say: "Then it depends on how hard Jin Jin works, people are together, there must be fate, fate will be good to you." ”

"I hope fate has arrived." Kim Kim Road.

Qian Qian's big black eyes turned to look at his mother, turned to look at his brother, and grinned, there seemed to be a hint of irony, Wen Jin even meant that he was wrong.

"You little villain, you just won't speak, what are you laughing at?"

Qian Qian rolled his eyes, he was two years old, he knew everything, but he didn't speak, Wen Jin was really anxious.

Along the way, the chariots and horses Xiao Xiao always made Wen Jin think that she was rushing to the battlefield, but the curious eyes of the people on the side of the road, as well as the lively hawkers of the shops, told Wen Jin that it was her delusion.

Prince Ren's Mansion finally arrived, and Wen Jin saw that the side door next to the mansion door for entering the carriage was open, and Qian Jun was sitting on the horse with a serious face.

Knowing that all the conspiracies and tricks against their mother and son today will definitely not be able to be carried out at this time, her man will definitely not let her be wronged, Wen Jin is not nervous at all, sitting in the carriage, sorting out her son's clothes and accessories well.

Jin Jin wore a royal blue georgette robe, Wen Jin asked the nurse to simply embroider a cartoon tiger pattern with orange and yellow threads on it, which looked neither tacky nor simple, and Qian Qian wore a light yellow circle pattern of trousers, no embroidery, the two children both strangled a thin belt to grab the pearl and wiped their foreheads, the pearl in front of the forehead was bought from the merchants of Nangang City, it was worthless over there, but in the capital, it was worth a hundred times, and it would never be underestimated.

On the necks of the two children, there are eight treasures of gold collars, in the middle of the collar, is a green jade pendant, this is Xiao Guogong to his grandson gifts, the two little boys with pink makeup, dressed up extravagantly.

The descendants of Prince Ren's mansion, seeing that Qian Jun was riding on a horse, had no intention of going in at all, and ran over to report to Prince Ren, Lord Zongling's face was very ugly on the side, at that time, fortunately, he brought Prince Ren to the emperor in one go, the emperor's decision, this master can be bewitched by women to change his mind, today he refused to open the door to greet, but opened the side door, saying that the carriage can go directly to the second door, the identity of the son and daughter-in-law is set, so it is reasonable, now, the daughter-in-law enters the door for the first time, let people go to the side door, Is it a concubine? The emperor's decree for canonization will soon arrive, and if the hour is delayed, even if Prince Ren is very much loved by the emperor, his face will be very ugly, not to mention that many guests have already arrived.

"It's really stupid, even if you come in through the side door, and the emperor's canonization comes down after a while, she is still the lady of the prince, what does it mean for those women to make these small moves?" Zong Ling snorted coldly in his heart, and watched with disdain as Prince Ren had to order the middle door to be opened to welcome his son and daughter-in-law.

Looking at the cold gate, a sneer appeared at the corner of Qian Jun's mouth, at this moment, there was a sound of talking in the courtyard, he got off the horse, and as soon as the reins were handed over, a group of flowery women poured out, these are clan women, and their seniority is not high, and it is normal to come out to greet them, Wen Jin got out of the carriage with the help of Chunming, and then, reached out and took out the money, handed him to the nurse, and took out the gold.

"Mother, I'll go by myself." Since he began to practice meditation luck on the boat, Jin Jin suddenly became more manly, he didn't like to be hugged, and he usually did things, and he began to make his own ideas with a posture.

"Good! My good boy has grown up! ”

Jin Jin walked in front, Wen Jin and Qian Jun followed, the nurse walked back with her son in her arms, and then the servant they brought back from the south.

This time in Beijing, Wen Jin was very strict with the selection of servants, and she knew that in the face of the complex environment of Prince Ren's Mansion, it was far better to have less and more fine.

Because she hasn't married yet, the clan relatives and her are all blessed, and then they smile at each other and say hello, these women see that although she doesn't bring many people, they all behave well, and they are well-dressed, especially the style of Wen Jin and the child, and no one dares to underestimate them. The time was just right, Wen Jin arrived in the inner courtyard, and heard the voice outside: "The holy decree has arrived-" The incense case has been arranged, Prince Ren and the princess walked over, and the two side concubines followed closely and knelt down on a row of dark yellow cushions in front
