Chapter 1027 - Reservation (Call for a Monthly Pass)
My mother turned her head and glared at me: "I'm anxious for my mother, really, aren't you your third brother's own brother?" Say this again, look at how Weiniang cleans you up, hum, if it weren't for your third brother who is also Weiniang's own son, let Weiniang and I won't do it anymore! It's almost fifteen, and everyone else's daughters are sixteen, so don't worry, and when your brother finds a bad daughter-in-law in the future, I'm afraid it's too late for you to cry. ”
I rolled my eyes and looked at the sky and whispered: "The third child can't find a daughter-in-law who cares about me." "Before the words fell, my mother's face turned dark, and the Nine Yang Divine Palm, which was too powerful than the exterminator, was imprinted." Oh, mother, the child is wrong, the child should be anxious, and he can't wait to marry him off on the sedan chair at this time. Rubbing the shoulder that made my mother hurt and hurriedly smiled.
My mother glared at me angrily: "Stinky boy, nonsense, he is your younger brother, not your sister, marry out, because you are a brother who said such a thing, let your father listen, and it is strange if you don't break your legs." ”
"Isn't this worried that your old man is too anxious to amuse you? Well, mother-in-law, please. The child knocks on the door for you. ”
As soon as the old man looked up, he saw our mother and son sneaking into the study with reverence, sighed silently, still pinched the information in his hand for details, and continued to look businesslike: "What's the matter?" "The tone is not good, I was about to say that it was okay, but my mother screwed me on the side and threatened me with her eyes, alas, I'm afraid that our thug should be decided.
"Master, I'm in the academy just now, didn't you say that you will sum it up when you go home? The concubine came here, not just for this matter, you see that the third child is almost fifteen, and our family should also think about finding a good family for San Lang. The mother sat down beside the old man with a smile and stretched out her hand to poke the old man with an impatient face.
I also took two steps forward and picked up the teapot on the table to fill the old man with tea: "Father, please use tea." The old man glanced at me and my mother, shook his head, put down the information in his hand helplessly, turned around and said to his mother: "Madam, this San Lang is not more than fifteen years old, and his surname is uncertain, plus he has just entered the academy to study military affairs, and he will stay for more than a year, so it is not too late to discuss it again, so why rush at this time?" ”
------------------------------------------------ "Master, look at what you said, there are early benefits, wasn't it the same with our family's Erlang back then?" Look at the family, there are a large group of little grandchildren at home, aren't you happy? Besides, I heard about this concubine, and many people went to fight the idea of our third daughter-in-law. My mother had a look of hatred in her heart, and she looked at me and the old man together. The mother is also cheeky enough, and the eight characters have not been skimmed, and the mother is called so.
The old man laughed and laughed. "I said madam, your third daughter-in-law also called a little early, right? Besides, whether Her Royal Highness the princess can respond to this matter, whether Your Majesty is willing or not, this has to be said. ”
The mother laughed proudly twice, and her eyes were shining: "It's not that the concubine is bold, but now I saw the look of the princess of Jinyang, and the concubine dared to predict that as long as our family went to mention this matter, Her Royal Highness the princess would never refuse." Therefore, the concubine was thinking, sir, can you think more about San Lang, mention this matter to His Majesty, first tell our family's intentions, and let Her Royal Highness the princess feel at ease. ”
The old man stroked his long white beard for a long time, frowned and said: "Madam, it's not that the old man doesn't want to go, but who can expect His Majesty's thoughts, besides, even if the old man really pulls this old face to say, but what about the third child?" At least we will have to wait until next year to turn fifteen, and we will have to wait a year before we can be crowned. It's not good, Your Majesty still thinks that the old man is trying to make fun of him. ”
"But master, don't talk about this matter, if you drag out something, then what should our San Lang do?" My mother frowned and thought hard, very tangled, I squatted on the side, and continued to maintain the four principles of not listening, not listening, not speaking, and not looking, and the most important thing is that I don't know what to say, plus the mother and the old man, the two old fathers, have no point in winning or losing, and I don't have the right to intervene.
The old man couldn't help touching his long beard when he heard his mother's words: "Madame's words are also quite reasonable, the old man has to think about it, but it's a pity that San Lang is still young, otherwise, the old man has to plan for our family." ”
"Small, small and very young!" The mother's eyes suddenly lit up, and she grabbed the old man and said, "Didn't the old man forget the matter of the Wei family?" ”
"The Wei family? Do you mean Brother Wei Zhengxian......" The old man also captured the key and slapped him on the thigh: "The old man really almost forgot about it, when Princess Hengshan and Shu Yuxian's nephew agreed to marry, they were also not in time. At the age of thirteen, she and the Wei family formed a good relationship with the Qin and Jin dynasties, and in terms of it, Her Royal Highness the princess was a little younger than the princess of Jinyang. ”
The mother looked happy, and continued to bewitch the old man: "That's it, master, the princess can marry when she is younger, besides, we don't have to talk about marriage at this time, let's set things down first, in this way, it can also be safer, so that so many people can worry about it all day long, and the concubine is restless and doesn't think about tea and dinner." ”
The mother instigated the old man, and the old man finally made up his mind, but the old man was still determined to wait until the end of the New Year, when the third child turned fifteen, and the old man went to mention this important matter to Uncle Li in person. "It's going to be the New Year, everything is busy, Your Majesty is going to be anxious, it's really unwise to disturb Your Majesty with this matter, or wait for the New Year, the old man will definitely give up this old face and mention this matter to Your Majesty, madam, don't worry too much."
My mother can't wait to go now, but seeing that the old man's attitude is too resolute, it's really hard to say much, anyway, it's two or three months before the third and fifteenth years old, and I don't think there will be any big waves. "Well, this matter is settled, and the concubine will go to San Lang. Tell that bastard boy well, lest you ...... "The mother stood up and went out of the house, leaving me to stare at the old man.
I saluted the old man and was about to say goodbye, but the old man opened his mouth: "Sit down, I have something to talk to you about here for my father." ”
"It doesn't hurt if the father says it, but the child listens to it." I had to sit back on the couch and smile at the old man. The old man cleared his throat: "Do you know that General Li Jing and General Li have written an essay on the reform of army promotion?" ”
"At that time, before Uncle Li Jing wanted to go to the book, he had discussed this matter with the child and the generals, and the child knew something. Father, when you mention this, do you mean that Your Majesty ......?" I replied carefully. The old man bowed slightly: "Well, Your Majesty is ready to agree to this matter." ”
"That's great, if Your Majesty can allow this, in the future, in my Tang army, I can greatly weaken the influence and control of those family lords on the army." I spoke with great pleasure. But the old man still looked unsurprised or displeased, which made me very curious: "Father, do you think this is not feasible?" ”
Old man ------------------------------------------------ shook his head and sighed: "The reason for this, why don't you know it for your father?" In fact, I know more about my father than you, General Li is over the age of old, but his heart still has the feeling of serving the country, and he is always worried about the country, which really makes his father admire, General Li's move, but it has angered many people and touched the interests of many people, and the contradictions have been intensified in advance. ”
"Father, do you mean to say that the general has annoyed those people in Guanlong?" I pursed my lips and asked the old man. The old man nodded: "Exactly, my father always thinks, why should this matter be done so urgently?" As long as we wait for another ten years, the world's army will surely fall into the hands of the state. You are the same child, since you already knew about this, why didn't you inform Yu Weifu as soon as possible, so that your father could persuade General Li not to take that risky move. ”
When I heard the old man's words, I was a little disapproving, or I thought that the old man's ideas were too conservative and not radical enough, and he belonged to the Conservatives. "Father, the child thinks that what General Li did is the right time, if it is later, in the end, it is still the country that will be harmed." This is the first time I have blatantly objected to the old man's words, which made the old man stunned, the old man was not angry, but raised his eyebrows: "What does Erlang mean by this?" ”
"Father, who is General Li? He is the first person in my Tang Army, and his military prestige is unparalleled for a while, and when he comes forward, the resistance he encounters, at least in the army, is the smallest, and with General Li's meritorious service to my Tang Dynasty, those whose interests have been damaged want to suppress? Hehe, I have to see if I have that share of the catty; Second, His Majesty Jiantai is in the prime of life, quite expanding, besides, His Majesty is the emperor immediately, and has ruled the world with literature for more than 20 years, and the prestige among the people in the world has been almost unmatched for thousands of years. In addition, His Majesty started with the army, and he was decisive in killing, which was not comparable to ordinary emperors, and the important ministers in the court were all under the authority of His Majesty's accumulation of years, and they did not dare to make a mistake, and it was the most good policy for His Majesty to push it. ”
