Chapter 196: The Marriage in the Hearts of Mother and Son
The art of the emperor, "law, technique, and potential" is indispensable, and it is fully embodied in this matter.
In order to consolidate his power, the emperor is bound to want to move Chen Tianyang, but he can't move Chen Tian. If he wants to consider the power of the officials, he can only solve the problem with the help of the legal code.
There is a way that the prince is guilty of breaking the law and the common people are guilty of the same crime. If Chen Tianyang's crime is confirmed, even if he has made great contributions to this dynasty, the people and officials will not be able to tolerate him.
But the emperor knew very well that this crime was actually unfounded. Therefore he blocked the mouths of the hundred officials and the people of the world.
You must know that whether Chen Tianyang shocked the lord or not was just the emperor's assumption, but Chen Tianyang's merits were indelible facts.
No one would think that the emperor would dispose of meritorious heroes at every turn. Because that means that Chen Tianyang's today is their tomorrow.
But now, with the matter of the household department first, who can take care of tomorrow's affairs. Take care of today, and wash your current people first. This will be the unanimous opinion of the people.
Sure enough, after the entire three divisions were tried, the death of the little official had completely changed its nature. The direction of the whole thing has completely changed.
Everyone in the household department immediately became the aggrieved party, and Chen Tianyang, who returned victoriously, was the party with ill intentions.
On the same day, Su Jinyu returned to the Marquis of Chang'an.
Mrs. Hou's Rhubarb family is not happy. Preparing braziers and willow branches, they are busy working non-stop.
In the courtyard of the second room, Su Zhaoning's mood did not relax.
So, is there really only one way out for the Lord?
In the next few days, Chen Yurui and Nan Wanwan did not come to the door.
Su Zhaoning wanted to hear the latest news, so he could only come from Su Jinyu's mouth.
"The suspicion on the side of the household has been completely cleared." Su Jinyu has been in prison for these days, and everyone has lost a lot of weight.
Therefore, every meal of the day, his meals are extraordinarily rich.
Su Jinyu also asked Su Zhaoning to sit down and eat with her.
"This phoenix is very good in gold clothes, the second sister can try it." Su Jinyu took a pair of chopsticks and put the duck meat into the small plate in front of Su Zhaoning.
He looked at Su Zhaoning and put the duck meat in his mouth, and then continued: "As for General Chen's side, the situation is still deadlocked. From the adjutant general to joining the army, he did not admit his guilt. But now the household department has finally cleared off suspicion, and everyone is riveting to find fault. ”
"Even Lord Xu, who has a brother-in-law in the barracks, is also wide-eyed, waiting for the empirical evidence to come out." Su Jinyu took another chopstick and put the other dishes in Su Zhaoning's bowl.
In fact, Su Zhaoning's mood at this time was really unbearable.
Chen Tianyang saved her three or four times, she had no love for him, but she was full of gratitude.
Now, if Chen Tianyang really delayed the future because of himself, Su Zhaoning would feel guilty for the rest of his life.
She asked tentatively, "Is there no other way to do this?" ”
Su Zhaoning added: "Even if it's to find a way to go to the harem." ”
"The only way is to come up with your own marriage." Su Jinyu heard his sister mention finding a way, so he didn't hide it anymore. Instead, he directly said the method that Zhou Dagongzi thought of.
"Don't say that there are no favored concubines in the palace in the Chen Mansion in the past two generations, even if there are, in this situation, it is not enough to just rely on intercession." Su Jinyu scooped a small bowl of soup for Su Zhaoning.
He put the soup in front of Su Zhaoning, looked at Su Zhaoning with expectant eyes, and urged her: "Second sister, you can taste this again." ”
"What is this?" Su Zhaoning asked in surprise, "Could it be that you cooked it yourself, big brother?" ”
Su Jinyu smiled embarrassedly and replied, "That's true." Although the major sin has now been cleared, after this incident, the household department is now much worse than before. None of the people were particularly motivated. I have more free time. ”
"The big brother wants to take advantage of this opportunity to make up for himself. You're all skinny. Su Zhaoning glanced at Su Jinyu, and then looked down at the entire table.
This large table of dishes is well-proportioned, fried, fried and steamed, and there are some flavors for each taste.
It can be seen that the grandmother and aunt are only concerned with supplementing her eldest brother's body, and they are completely unaware of the taste tendencies of the eldest brother.
As elders, in fact, many of them are like this. Blindly emphasizing the good of children and grandchildren, but not considering whether this kind of good can be accepted by children and daughters.
In the mansion of the Marquis of Weiyuan, a mother and daughter were quarreling.
"I'm doing all this for your brother. He's my own flesh and blood, will I hurt him? Mrs. Chen was looking at her daughter Chen Yurui with a disappointed expression.
The look on Chen Yurui's face was also disappointed.
"Mother, how can you think that? Could it be that the eldest brother likes to eat chicken, not duck, and you make duck for him, is this for his good? What's more, the major event of marriage cannot be discussed by eating at all! Chen Yurui was indignant for her brother.
After talking about the brother himself, Chen Yurui talked about the object of her mother's consideration.
"Mother, if you want to set a sixth princess for your brother, forget it. Why should you choose Seven Princesses? Seventh Princess, Seventh Princess, she ...... "Chen Yurui's first thought was actually the Marquis of Dingyuan.
But after all, the last period of the seventh princess's marriage was not the Marquis of Dingyuan, and Chen Yurui could only swallow it back raw.
She said: "The Seventh Princess and the Prince of Qin have been married for several years, are you not afraid that the Qin family will resent our Chen family if you go to intervene out of thin air?" ”
"The Qin family will only thank us! How can you resent us? Mrs. Chen retorted, "On the hunting ground, Qin Shizi was seriously injured. It didn't take long for the news that he might have a hidden illness to be reported. Mrs. Qin had long suspected that it was the meaning of the Seventh Princess. But she couldn't go to the princess's trouble. ”
"If the seventh princess doesn't mention the divorce, the Qin family has only one way. can only admit that Qin Shizi did have a problem, and then he could withdraw from the marriage. Mrs. Chen mentioned this, and there was still a little smile on her face.
She said: "Now that my meaning is revealed, the Qin family can't ask for it. When the time comes, the Qin family can take a back seat with the righteousness of adult beauty. ”
"Then our Chen family will take on the name of taking relatives!" Chen Yurui felt that her mother was a little unreasonable.
In the past, her mother was not like that.
Even when facing the problem of the county lord of An Yi, her mother, Mrs. Chen, had never been so messy.
Now, Chen Yurui feels that every plan Mrs. Chen makes is a random move.
Mrs. Chen felt that it was unclear to tell her daughter, so she made up her mind directly: "I have made up my mind on this matter, you don't need to say more." Tomorrow I will go to the palace to see the queen and settle this marriage. ”
"Mother, won't you ask your brother what he means?" Chen Yurui couldn't help but shout.
Her deliberate raising of her voice did not make Mrs. Chen feel any special vibration.
Instead, Mrs. Chen said something that made her quite uncomfortable: "Yurui, didn't you bring up this matter in the first place?" If you hadn't told me what Zhou Shilang said, I might not have thought so thoroughly. ”
"So, if you feel embarrassed to see Second Miss Su in the future, then don't go and see it." After Mrs. Chen said this, she turned around and left.
Chen Yurui's eyes were a little sour, and tears swirled and swirled in his eyes, but they didn't fall in the end.
Her mother was so ruthless.
She originally wanted to talk to Sister Su about this. I hope that Sister Su can go to see her brother and stop this marriage that is not happy at all.
But as her mother said, she was the one who told her family about it. Sister Su is so smart, she must be able to guess this. If you go to report the news by yourself, will Sister Su believe herself?
Chen Yurui thought of this, and the post that had been written in her sleeve was not sent to the Marquis of Chang'an Mansion in the end.
She didn't have the face to see her sister Su.
And another person from the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion was preparing to see Su Zhaoning with great interest.
Although he was impeached, Chen Tianyang's identity was there. It is impossible for him to go to prison without evidence.
Therefore, Chen Tianyang, who had met his father and mother in the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion, was picking up the small gifts he bought when he returned to Beijing.
On his return to Beijing this time, he stayed in several cities for a while. In order to find a satisfactory gift for the beloved girl.
Each one picks one or two, and it doesn't seem to be much on a single look, but now when you look at it together, you have a box.
Chen Tianyang was absolutely not stingy in giving this box of gifts to Su Zhaoning.
However, he felt that Su Zhaoning would definitely not accept such many gifts from himself.
Hospitality is not done on the surface.
Although he would love to do it on the bright side.
Then save it until you marry her. When the time comes, he must let her wear red makeup.
Chen Tianyang has actually lived separately from his parents, so he doesn't need to take all the things in the Hussar General's Mansion to his mother's account.
He knew that her father was a seventh-rank official and must have no savings. Her biological mother died young, and her stepmother had a daughter of her own.
It doesn't matter if these are any, what he loves is not her family background, her family background.
She didn't, and he gave it all.
He wants to give Su Zhaoning all the best he has.
Chen Tianyang looked at the gifts in that row and looked at each one of them, each of which he carefully selected. It was difficult for him to pick the best.
After sweeping his gaze back and forth three or four times, his eyes suddenly lit up.
The embroidery over there, although it is also very chic, but the embroidery is martial arts. I don't think Zhaoning is my favorite.
An Yi should like it.
Then leave this to An Yi.
He's going to get married, and she should be sad. But she's just a child, just coax her.
Chen Tianyang had an idea and quickly distinguished the gifts.
He didn't know what was the best, but if he thought about it, which ones were not Su Zhaoning's favorite, then they were all eliminated.
A lot of them were eliminated, leaving three for Chen Yurui and three for An Yi.
Chen Tianyang thought about it, when he went to see Su Zhaoning tomorrow, he would say to her: Zhaoning, I want to marry you.
I'm back, I want to marry you.
For the second day, Chen Tianyang was full of expectations.
Winter had quietly arrived, and when I woke up the next day, I saw a small snowflake floating outside the window.
