Chapter 301: Dealing with it
It took a while for Qian Jun to react from the shock, and he patted Wen Jin's hand solemnly: "I don't know what happened in the last life, since I can do it all over again, I will definitely not let your mother and son repeat the same mistakes." β
"Well, I believe you!"
Shen Mingxi came out of the emperor and did not mobilize anyone to spread rumors, which would cause the emperor to be on guard, although he is now just a five-grade person walking in the study, not an official official, and the brothers are by the emperor's side, which is easy for people to seize the handle and attack.
After Mrs. Shen gave birth to a son, she had a second son as she wished, and now the husband and wife are harmonious, the family is quiet and happy, she has been working hard for more than ten years, and it can be regarded as a positive result.
Shen Mingxi returned home, thought of a plan, and asked his wife: "Aren't you going to attend Mrs. Liu's son's wedding banquet in a few days?" Among the guests invited by her family, is there such a woman who is easy to be moved by tears, loves to talk, and is also infectious, and has a good reputation? β
"Do you want to spread the word, sir?"
"Well, that's it."
Shen Mingxi told Naren Gaowa's tragic life story again, his eloquence, that first moved his wife, Mrs. Shen San said with tears in her eyes: "Princess Naren is so pitiful and ambitious, it is not easy for a woman's family to run around to avenge her husband and younger brother." β
"yes, so, I want someone to help her."
Mrs. Shen San thought for a while: "Mrs. Guo Shilang of the household department can try, she is a good person, and she has many friends on weekdays." β
The household department is the Ministry of Finance in later generations, naturally there are many people who stutter, and Mrs. Guo has such a cheerful and lively personality, naturally she has many friends, Shen Mingxi will not let his wife make a gun, he asked: "Who are the friends of this Mrs. Guo, say a few." β
Mrs. Shen thought about it, and sure enough, she reported a few names, and after Shen Mingxi asked clearly, she had a plan.
The Ministry of Rites Shangshu went down to the court, invited Qin Shilang of the Ministry of Industry to dinner, after the two of them finished speaking, they came out and met Shen Mingxi and a few people who returned to Beijing to report on their work, others can ignore it, but no one dared not take Shen Mingxi seriously, so a group of people beat the drum again and opened again, returned to the private room, and called another table of banquets, two groups of people met, each played their own abacus, and a few who returned to Beijing to report on their work, the officials were not big, and they wanted to tie up Lord Shangshu and Lord Shilang, and in front of everyone, no one dared to speak, but they all hoped to chat more, During the period, Shen Mingxi seemed to inadvertently sigh that Princess Naren Gaowa was the husband of the woman, and the people who stammered him were the most, so someone asked what it meant, Shen Mingxi asked the Ministry of Rites to introduce to everyone, he has been positioned as a heroine among women, and the Ministry of Rites naturally said as good things about Princess Naren Gaowa as much as possible, Shen Mingxi occasionally added two sentences to guide public opinion, so a group of men told the story of women for half an hour.
Qin Shilang was a poor man, his father-in-law was blue-eyed, married his daughter to him, supported him in many ways from material to spiritual, and then carried him all the way, he had today's achievements, so he was very good to his wife, he went home late, so he naturally reported to his wife, who said what he met, and the deeds of Princess Naren Gaowa were the easiest to earn women's tears and resonate with them, so in the next few days, Mrs. Qin Shilang told the story to Mrs. Guo Shilang, and Mrs. Guo Shilang told it to a few good friends at the Liu family's wedding banquet, Her eloquence and influence are much stronger than Mrs. Qin Shilang, so, in just half a month, the high-ranking women in the capital know the deeds of Princess Naren Gaowa, many women are bold for her to replace her niece and kiss a sweat, they subconsciously control their husband's ideology, and when Emperor Yongchang really summoned the Tartar and the envoy in the court, most people had sympathy and admiration for Princess Naren, Dong Jincai gathered a group of protΓ©gΓ©s to jump up and blame, but there were few people to support, Shen Mingzhao didn't say a word, and just pressed the matter down.
On this day, the matter was officially argued at the imperial court, and most of the courtiers were supportive.
The eldest princess of Meiyun's concubine played the right game: "Long live my emperor, Prince Ren has been blind for a long time, and the imperial doctor is helpless, the huge mansion cannot be without a hostess, why don't the emperor give Princess Naren Gaowa to Prince Ren, and take care of the life of the old prince." β
After more than ten years of hard work, Qian Xiancong is now also ranked above the court, and he also took a step forward and echoed: "It should be like this." Although there is no precedent in our dynasty, the old prince has made great achievements, and the princess has an eye disease and cannot control the inner court, so it is up to the royal family to come forward and solve this problem for him. β
Dong Jincai could barely sleep for the past two nights, but he couldn't think of how to suppress this proposal. Although Prince Ren remarries a new concubine, it is not good for the prince Qian Jun, but for him Dong Jincai, the disadvantage is even greater, his sister, the side concubine, will no longer be able to come out, Prince Xinren will definitely suppress the side concubine and the blind princess, then, his nephew Qian Hao, will definitely be deeply hit. Qian Hao has been lying on the bed for half a year, and now although there is no problem walking, the imperial doctor said that he must not be tired, let alone any training such as horseback riding and archery martial arts. My sister can't control Prince Ren's mansion, so his plan to make a fortune can't be implemented.
The Shen family stared at him too much, Dong Jincai had high power, but he had no chance to make a fortune, he was not even as rich as a real power official of the Ministry of Industry and Caoyun and Yandao, Prince Ren's Mansion was a treasury, he watched it, but he couldn't take it out to spend.
Dong Jincai resolutely opposed Princess Naren Gaowa marrying Prince Ren, and he could only persuade the emperor from the perspective of despising Naren: "Since ancient times, a woman's lack of talent is virtue, Princess Naren Gaowa is so outcast, how can she match Prince Ren?" Cannot! β
More than a dozen ministers came out at once, opposing Dong Jincai's opinion: "How can Princess Naren Gaowa be a woman who does not abide by women's morals?" She put her own safety aside for the country and her husband, how many men can't do this step, although it is a woman of different races, we should also praise it, and now there are often people who feel that the world is getting worse and the people's hearts are not ancient, it is not that the officials and people of our dynasty are really morally corrupt, but that we do not promote people and things in this area enough, and ordinary people do not follow the example. β
Emperor Yongchang thought so, although he did not come to a final conclusion, but his expression and behavior showed that he was supportive and happy.
Dong Jincai was very unwilling, and he put forward the reason for his objection again: "Naren Gaowa's parents and brothers are all dead, she is an ominous person, and she will bring bad luck into Prince Ren's mansion." β
"Shut up!" The emperor was furious, "Princess Naren was obviously killed by Mao Dun, what kind of ominous person, can an ominous person be born in a royal family?" This matter should not be brought up again. "Emperor Yongchang is afraid that Prince Ren will not marry Naren Gaowa, and his subsequent arrangements will not be able to continue.
Dong Jincai was trained to be disgraced in front of the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military affairs, this person was so embarrassed that he didn't dare to say anything, and the people who followed him in the court also closed their mouths, and Emperor Yongchang smiled with satisfaction in the sound of support. After retreating from the court and returning to the palace, he took a nap and got up, Lord Zongzheng asked to see him, he stood on the court, and everything that happened in the early dynasty was in his eyes. He appreciated Princess Naren Gaova, and at the same time, he also felt that it was better to let her marry than to give the emperor and stuff another interracial woman. Anyway, Concubine Mei still has Han blood, and her child is the only heir of the emperor, and it is barely acceptable to inherit the throne in the future, but the Tartar woman is different, and she must not be given a high status in the palace.
Of course, this idea cannot be said by Lord Zongzheng, if Naren marries Prince Ren, the harmony will be completed, and the emperor will have no reason to marry a Tartar woman.
"Your Majesty, Princess Naren Gaowa signed a peace agreement in northern Xinjiang disguised as a man, and the old prince has a relationship, the emperor should also consider this factor, for such a strong and capable woman, more tolerance and protection, if she marries Prince Ren, who would dare to say a word like showing up? This is good for the court and for individuals. β
"What Master Zongzheng said is extremely true." Emperor Yongchang expressed his approval. The two dancing girls that Hulun'er gave him are now being favored, and the emperor is afraid that people outside will know that the imperial history says that the east and the west are the best, so he tried his best to let Princess Naren Gaowa attract the attention of most people, so that he could secretly Chen Cang and quietly place the two stunning beauties down. These two Tartar women are not ordinary dancing girls, one is the daughter of the right virtuous king before the usurpation of the throne by Maodun, her father was killed by Maudun, and the other is the daughter of the brother of Princess Huluner, they hate Maudun, hope to succeed in harmony, and also have special respect for Emperor Yongchang, feeling that he is more capable than their Great Khan Bogda Khan, every time Emperor Yongchang sees them worship to the eyes of gods, men's vanity is greatly satisfied, and now they are particularly good to these two women.
With Shen Mingxi's secret promotion, the courtiers accepted Princess Naren Gaowa, and when Emperor Yongchang saw that the time was ripe, he ordered Prince Ren and Princess Naren Gaowa to marry.
Concubine Dong saw that her brother couldn't withstand the pressure, and let this matter be done, she was very disappointed and very sad, Prince Ren now has a concubine, then she will no longer have any drama, let alone be corrected in the future, and even the right to preside over the middle of the week cannot be retained. Concubine Yang saw that things were very unfavorable to her, so she decisively turned around and hugged Wen Jin's thigh, so that the man is alive, and he can still shelter one or two, and when the man dies, the serious heroine of Prince Ren's mansion is the princess, she has been courting and showing goodwill, and she does not believe that she will not be able to tolerate a few hundred taels of silver a year for eating, dressing, and serving the maid and the maid in the future. This time Prince Ren was particularly sober, when Zong Zheng came to ask who was responsible for the marriage, he did not hesitate to say that it was the princess, as soon as Zong Zheng left, he asked the princess to hand over power, and the middle of the family, no matter how big or small, was all in charge of the princess. He knew that his daughter-in-law was capable, and he also knew that his daughter-in-law was at odds with several of his women, and Prince Ren guessed that the princess would take this opportunity to counterattack and calculate, under the pretext of rectifying the inner courtyard, and would definitely clean up the accounts and treasury, so that when the new princess came in, the people who should be offended by the princess had been offended, and the housekeeping that should be sorted out was also sorted out, and the woman he liked could sit back and enjoy it smoothly, and she could also live in peace with the existing women.
