217. Chapter 217
So at that time, Tang Jun thought of Hua Jiangyue in Huafu, he didn't like it himself, but he sold a favor to the emperor at the moment, and promised Hua Jiangyue to the four princes on the spot, and this matter could be regarded as having an ending.
Today's rehash of the old matter made Tang Jun breathe a sigh of relief, it turned out to be for this matter. smiled at the moment: "The imperial brother is optimistic about the time, it is her blessing that Hua Jiangyue can marry the fourth prince, but it is up to the imperial brother to decide." ”
"Okay, but I still have to let the emperor see this. Although my emperor is thin, this temperament is really the same as I was back then, if not...... Hey, don't mention it. "For these four princes, the emperor really likes them, if it weren't for his body, otherwise he would really be a plastic talent.
"Okay, welcome to the four princes. At that moment, Tang Jun smiled, thinking in his heart: his eldest daughter has a marriage contract with the crown prince, although these four princes are sick, but this maternal line is also a prestigious family, and he can be regarded as having increased his power in the court. The emperor told Tang Jun his original intention, and then chatted a few words, and then let Tang Jun retreat.
And in Mo Lanxuan, deep in the palace, a man leaned against a stone, holding a fishing rod in one hand and quietly looking at the lake. I saw that his eyebrows were like sharp swords, his eyes were like stars, his long black and smooth hair was scattered on his white clothes, and the slightly upturned corners of his lips matched with his gentle and indifferent temperament, which made people feel like a spring breeze. It's just that there is a paleness on the beautiful face that is different from ordinary people, and there is a trace of morbid beauty.
"Fourth prince, you are blowing the wind here again, this disease has improved, how can this body withstand your tossing like this. A childish voice sounded, and then a delicate-looking boy appeared with an unhappy face, holding a heavy mink coat in his hand, and muttered.
"Ahem, ahem...... Zhu Qing, look at your age, you look like you can fight with the father-in-law in charge, cough cough cough cough cough ...... "The fourth prince is also the fourth prince, but almost, it took the strength of the body, and at the moment he was leaning on the rockery with a sickly flush on his face.
Seeing this, the little boy named Zhuqing hurriedly stepped forward to support him, the noon sun was just right, and the sun was warm, but holding the hands of the four princes, he felt a coldness, and quickly put on a cloak for him and helped him into the house.
"Fourth prince, drink the medicine quickly, otherwise it will be uncomfortable again tonight. Qingzhu skillfully brought in the medicine that had been warm on the stove from the outhouse, sent it to the four princes, and then made the charcoal fire in the house more vigorous.
The fourth prince looked at the medicine bowl next to the couch and frowned, ignored it directly, and looked at Qingzhu who was squatting not far away weakly and smiled: "I'm afraid that my illness will not be cured, but it will drag Qingzhu down." ”
"What are the emperor's words? Without waiting for Qingzhu to reply, a scolding came, and a woman dressed in a gorgeous dress came in, graceful and luxurious.
"The Queen Mother. Seeing the visitor, the fourth prince smiled softly and didn't say much.
"The emperor must not say these depressing words, your body will always be fine, don't talk nonsense. "The woman who came in was the biological mother of the four princes, Hua Guifei, who had to come to see her son's condition every day.
"Hey...... Why is it so much trouble for the queen mother? Your son has been sick for so many years, and you ...... too."
"Don't talk nonsense, you're going to be fine. Today's mother came to bring you good news, and you will be happy to hear about the quasi-guarantee. Hua Guifei interrupted her son's words, looked at him with interest, touched her son's cold hand with both hands, and frowned almost invisibly, but it did not affect her good mood.
"Oh, what makes the mother so happy?" Seeing that she was so interested, the fourth prince echoed.
"It's not your marriage yet, but today your father has made an appointment with General Tang, and he will let them marry the fifth lady of the house on a certain day. When the time comes, Xiu'er will have someone around who knows cold and heat, and it will definitely get better soon. ”
"Fifth Miss?" Hearing this, the fourth prince couldn't help frowning, his father had set this family affair for himself, this is after so many years, he thought it was long gone, why did he mention it today.
"Yes, it's the daughter of Feng Lingxue at the beginning. Although this woman was unbearable at the beginning, her appearance was top-notch, and her daughter must not be far behind. Saying that, Hua Guifei persuaded her son, but she secretly hoped in her heart that this Hua Qianyue was a woman who did her duty, and she must not be as evil as her mother.
The queen mother, but the son heard that the five young ladies had also been sick in bed. You also know your son's body, if there is another sick lady, your son's Mo Lanxuan can be regarded as lively. Now that Zhuqing is taking care of his son's body, if there is another one, isn't this mess......y?
Hearing this, Hua Guifei thought about it too. It seems that General Tang's fifth lady has been sick for more than half a year, and she hasn't heard of healing, and at the moment Hua Guifei is a little hesitant, the emperor's condition is already like this, to say a sad word: his body can be dragged on for a day now, if it is true that the fifth miss is also a sick man, but it is a mess.
"Mother, it's better to forget about this family business, and my son's body doesn't want to delay any girl. Tell my father about it, and the marriage will be withdrawn. As he spoke, there was another rapid cough, as if he wanted to cough out his lungs.
"Zhuqing, get to the water. Seeing that the emperor was coughing uncomfortably, Concubine Hua hurriedly asked people to wait, and when she saw her son like this, she felt uncomfortable for a while, and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes. Seeing that everyone was busy for a while, pouring water and smoothing the air, Hua Guifei looked at it and twitched, thinking about her son's words just now, but it was not bad, two patients together, it was not good after all, in case of illness, wouldn't it make the emperor's health worse? Thinking of this, Hua Guifei comforted a few words, and immediately drove towards the emperor.
And in the chaos in the house, no one noticed that the fourth prince who was sick seemed to be unable to get up in one breath, but a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Hua Guifei is very efficient, but she will get the emperor's approval after a while, but there is one thing, this marriage must be withdrawn by themselves, after all, they are not favored, they are also a royal lady, and the respect they should have is still given, and Hua Guifei immediately agreed. When he came back to tell the emperor about the decision of the four princes, the four princes just muttered for a while, and immediately decided that they would also go to the general's mansion.
After discussing it, Concubine Hua sent someone to squeak at the general's mansion, found a sunny day, and went to the door to retreat lively.
Coincidentally, when he came out of the palace, he happened to meet the crown prince Tang Ruoqi, who was also going to the general's mansion to visit his future crown princess.
And in the general's mansion, when he received a letter from the palace at this time, the whole mansion was in an orderly manner, and it did not become different because of a crazy young lady in the mansion. But Tang Min has changed his temperament, and he is not as arrogant and domineering as before.
"The crown prince has arrived, the concubine has arrived, and the four princes have arrived!" A loud signal came, alarming the entire Tang family.
When everyone hurriedly came to the door to greet them, Concubine An, the crown prince, and the four princes had already entered the courtyard, followed by more than a dozen slaves and maids.
"The minister greets His Royal Highness the Prince, the noble concubine, and His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince. Tang Wei immediately respectfully saluted the servants. followed by a group of family members, and followed Tang Jun to make a big salute to the three of them. Of course, there is no more idle flower moon in the pear orchard.
"Flat, they are all their own family, so there is no need to be so polite. Seeing this, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was satisfied with Tang Jun's knowledge of etiquette, and he did not neglect it because he was his uncle.
"Please sit inside. Saying that, under the leadership of Tang Jun, he invited three leaders to personally serve tea to them one by one.
"Uncle is polite, today I am purely accompanied, it is Concubine An Guifei who has something to discuss with her uncle. As he spoke, he said to Concubine An Guifei, who was sitting on the right side: "Concubine Niangniang, they are all from their own family, so let's talk about it." Although he said to Hua Guifei, his eyes looked straight at Tang Zilan, who was shy, and the corners of his mouth were lightly hooked, and he smiled at her.
Concubine An Guifei saw that the prince had opened her mouth for herself, and she didn't hide it at the moment, and said to Tang Jun, who was sitting at the bottom: "The palace and the four princes came today, mainly for the marriage of the fourth prince and the fifth lady. ”
When the words fell, everyone present was stunned, and then looked towards the four princes, only to see that although the four princes were handsome, they were pale, their bodies were weak, and they looked weak, sitting on the chairs, giving people the illusion that they would fall down at any time, accompanied by a slight cough from time to time, and they looked like sick ghosts.
Seeing that everyone's eyes were focused on the fourth prince, Hua Guifei immediately coughed lightly and said with a smile: "I don't know which one is the fifth lady?"
Coming back to his senses slightly, Tang Jun saw the concubine asking, and immediately replied: "Jiangyue has been sick recently, and she is still resting in the boudoir. ”
When Concubine An heard this, she immediately knew in her heart, it seemed that the rumors outside that Miss Fifth was a sick man were true, and she had an excuse at the moment, and frowned: "In this case, this palace will go to visit, can someone lead the way?"
Although Hua Guifei said this, her body was motionless, and she clearly had no intention of going. After so many years in the officialdom, how could Tang Jun have no eyesight, and said with a smile: "How can there be a reason to let the concubine go, there are ...... people who come" and said to the next person: "Go to the pear courtyard and invite the fifth lady." ”
As he spoke, the subordinate immediately took the order and retreated, inviting the fourth lady of the pear orchard. When Hua Jiangyue was reading in the pear orchard, she saw that the girl was coming in a hurry, so she explained the situation clearly, and immediately started from her heart and said to Jade: "You go and tell the person who came, let him wait, and I will come out later." ”
As he spoke, he turned around and picked out a white dress from the closet and put it on, then picked up the rouge gouache on the table and began to apply it carefully.
When Hua Jiangyue came out of the room, where was the ruddy on her face, her face was pale at this time, a thick layer of black under her eyes, the corners of her chapped mouth, and her white clothes lined with a whole body of yin made the whole person clothed with a layer of yin qi, pale and seeping, and at first glance it was a person who had been bedridden for a long time.
