Chapter 6: Greeting the Bridegroom (2)
"There are also those who say hello, and there are those who say that you are the reincarnation of a bodhisattva... However, it's better not to listen to it, and many of them are not good words. ”
Yu Fu put down the ink strip and frowned, in the past, she was closely watched by her father and brother, and she rarely had the opportunity to go out, but one of the few times in the teahouse market, when she heard others talk about Yang Shao, she was inevitably silent.
Needless to say, killing and gaining power, even the nursery rhyme has "the mountains and rivers are chaotic, the king of the Ming Dynasty is established, the water is sinking, and the wood is Yang Teng", and it is even said that he is obscene and debauched, nominally the king of the Ming Dynasty, the county lord of various countries, but in fact, he is full of selfish desires and rumors of chaos in the harem.
At that time, she listened quietly and felt sad in her heart, but now she saw with her own eyes that he was not like this.
Rich people still have a wife, two equal wives and four concubines, but in the past ten days, she found that there was a huge regent palace, and she didn't even see a concubine.
"What do you say about me? Do you mean I'm ruthless, or do you mean that I don't blink an eye when I kill? Yang Shao hugged Yu Fu in his arms, his chin was pillowed on her neck, he closed his eyes and sniffed the fragrance in his hair, his heart was crisp for a while, but his mouth was still very serious, "I can't help it, there will be gains and losses for the world." And you also saw it today, King Xiao Ming again... It's hard to put into words..."
This sentence reminded Yu Fu that when she saw King Ming for the first time today, she did have a few questions.
Yang Shao saw that she wanted to speak and stopped, his heart was clear, and he continued without waiting for her to speak: "You must have wanted to ask about King Ming's mention of his mother today. ”
During the day, King Xiao Ming inadvertently mentioned his biological mother, but he soon felt speechless and did not talk about it, which once caused an embarrassing atmosphere.
Yu Fu nodded, and said in a low voice: "Presumably, it involves court secrets that are not enough for outsiders, he was born in a noble family, this is a common thing, Dayong also has Qi Guifei and Yao Shufei competing for favor?" If it is inconvenient for you to say, I will not ask questions. ”
"What's inconvenient? You and I are one husband and wife, living and dying together, I should tell you these things, otherwise one day your husband will be harmed because of this..."
Speaking of the word husband and wife, Yang Shaoxi couldn't help but deliberately accentuate the tone.
Yu Fu only heard him say the word "killed", and hurriedly said something to him.
Yang Shao was not annoyed, his heart was like eating honey, even if he sat upright, the corners of his mouth still couldn't hide a smile: "Shen Yanzong is indeed the only son of King Xianming, but he was not born to Princess Ming, but the illegitimate son of the king." ”
"Bastard son?" Yu Fu was startled, and looked sideways at Yang Shao, "Since King Xianming is the lord of a country, I think... Such a noble person, the concubine is ordinary, but there will be no ... A pearl dropped in the ocean--an unnoticed talent. ”
"That's a long story." Yang Shao's deep voice was not slow, "The first king's wife is the princess Liu, and the first king and her are in love, so much so that they have not accepted a side concubine for many years after the wedding. It's a pity that the first princess gave birth to two princes, both of whom unfortunately died young, and later never got pregnant again. ”
Yang Shao said as he picked the wick with a lamp stick, and his handsome face shone incomparably under the jumping lamplight.
"The first king loved the princess, but as the king of Ming, he shouldered the national throne, and he must have a prince... In addition, the call of the ministers to expand the harem was extremely high, and the first king was in a dilemma, and one day, he tentatively came to the palace maid Cui'er in private, but this matter was not more than a month, and it was known by Princess Ming. ”
"This! This princess may have been in great pain at that time..."Yu Fu felt pain in her heart when she heard this, and couldn't help but blurt out, and before the words came out, she felt that she was speechless, she shook her head lightly, "I'm sorry, King Xianming is your great benefactor, I shouldn't have said that." ”
"But my Fu'er's words are right in the air." Yang Shao smiled slightly, and gently followed his wife's hair and said, "Even if you lose your beloved son, the person next to the pillow is centrifugal... In short, when the first princess found out, she was filled with grief and indignation as you said, and asked the first princess to give Cui'er death immediately.
As the lord of a country, the first king did not want to be guilty of his own sins and the lives of others, but he was ashamed of the princess, and in desperation, the first king asked for a compromise, and personally ordered Cui'er to be driven out of the palace and made her never come back, if he returned to the palace one day, he would be killed. ”
"I can't even tell who's at fault in this matter." Yu Fu couldn't help but sigh when she heard this, "Princess Liu is in pain, but this palace maid Cui'er is really a poor person." ”
"This palace maid is the biological mother of Shen Yanzong, the current king of Ming." Yang Shao heard her sigh, and he was reluctant to sell it.
"What?! It turned out to be..."Yu Fu was dumbfounded, and suddenly guessed the twists and turns, but it was too late to say more, so he heard Yang Shao continue: "That group of old ministers will not be as empathetic as my Fu'er, after this incident, one by one, they intensified, and they all asked King Ming to accept concubines and concubines.
Originally, Princess Ming was not in good health, and she was so disheartened that she couldn't afford to get sick, and she died of depression within three years. The matter has come to this point, the first king regretted it was useless, and later he was the heir, although he accepted several concubines one after another, but he felt ashamed of his wife, so he always vacated the position of concubine.
King Xiao Ming's mother gave birth to him outside and did not dare to return to the palace because of the order, until he was secretly raised to the age of five. That year, Cui'er was seriously ill, and she felt that she would die soon, Yanzong was still young, and the first princess had passed away, so she sent Yanzong back to the palace in a desperate attempt and killed herself in front of King Ming. ”
"The palace wall is as deep as the sea, this mother, really..." Yu Fu's eyes were slightly red when she heard this, Yang Shao felt a pain in her heart, and gently wiped away her tears and comforted: "Don't be sad, this is all in the past, I didn't see it with my own eyes, it was all later Ziyao told me." ”
"Who is Zi Yao?" Yufu wondered.
Yang Shao smiled lightly: "I forgot to say, Ziyao is Zhang Yizhou, and his mother is Princess Liu's sister-in-law." When I first came to the Ming Dynasty, he served as the guard of the king of the Ming Dynasty and took good care of me, and then we became brothers. Now he is the head of the household department, I have been looking for you all these years he knows everything, I have the opportunity to take you to meet him. ”
"See me?" Yu Fu hesitated, hung her head and wrung her clothes, "You have to see me anyway, I'm just... I'll talk about this later, so let's tell the story first. ”
"No, he knows that you are my sweetheart, but you are right, the future will be long."
Yang Shao smiled slightly, kissed the root of his wife's reddened ear and continued,
"King Xianming has never had a child, Cui'er insisted that Yanzong was the son of King Xianming, and entrusted him with his life, King Xianming hesitated again and again, but still accepted him. King Xiao Ming was originally surnamed Yu with his mother, and his name was a guest, but he changed his name to Shen Yanzong after recognizing his ancestors and returning to his ancestors. Now King Ming has a cowardly personality, presumably because of his life experience. ”
"Since you have a young master, why are you a big family now?" Yu Fu was a little curious and couldn't help asking.
"It's not necessarily true to say that one is dominant. The king of the first Ming had the grace of re-creation to me, at that time the world was already full of mountains and rains, he was very worried about his gentle and weak young son, afraid that the century-old foundation of the Ming Dynasty would be destroyed in his hands, and he was lonely with me and the old minister Liang Gu on his deathbed.
The ancestors of the Liang family have been officials in the Ming Dynasty for several generations, although I led the troops, but after all, I was not a native of the Ming Dynasty, and some of the old ministers in the court were not satisfied, and when the first king died, they immediately took Liang Gu as the head, intending to suppress my tax reform.
In addition to Liang Gu's faction, there are also ministers who only serve King Xiao Ming, after all, he is the bloodline of the first king. Is there another faction..."Yang Shao said this, and smiled at her to see that she didn't say any more.
"There is also a faction called the Yang Wang faction, with you as the leader, in charge of the real power of the troops." Yu Fu was transparent, and after listening to a few words from him, he understood the situation in the court.
"Wronged, what I originally wanted to say is that there is another faction that is the Fu faction, headed by me, and this is the only one who doesn't want to ask except for one person who is looking for me Fu'er." Yang Shao rubbed her head, ears and temples, and put the heat around her neck, Yufu was ashamed and itchy, struggling to stand up.
Yang Shao stopped teasing her, and said solemnly: "However, in the troubled times, those in power are either swords, or fish and meat, since I am involved in this mess, I can only carry it hard." ”
When Yu Fu heard this, he snorted twice, leaned his head against his chest: "Brother Shao, why do you say you have to fight?" fought for the seat in Jinling City, and in the end, lives were ruined. If no one rebels, the Yong Dynasty is peaceful, my father will not hate you, you and I will not be separated for ten years, and we will not end up in the dilemma we are in now..."
"Yufu, why don't I want the world to be peaceful, I don't have to think about anything, just stay with you, and the coarse tea and light rice will be for a lifetime.
But the Yong Dynasty building will fall, not overnight, and not one person can change it at a time. The court was debaucherous, the people were poor, and even the vassal states that were divided into feudal states could not bear the harsh taxes.
You and I used to be in Hanyang, and the family didn't have to worry about eating and drinking, but later I saw it with my own eyes all the way from Hanyang to Longxi, and I believed that there are many places in this world that are easy to eat. Some people rebel, but the people just want to live. ”
"What about these princes, after the rebellion, they don't kill people? Everywhere the iron rider goes, isn't there a river of blood? What is the difference between killing and starving, between dying yesterday and dying today? ”
Yu Fu's heart fluctuated, and she suddenly raised her head to say more, looking at Yang Shao's eyes looking at her, but she couldn't say anything anymore.
"To fight to fight, although to fight, to kill, to kill, although to kill. It may be inevitable that there will be life and death in a moment, but I have never liked to kill.
Moreover, the cities under the Ming Kingdom are all governed with heart and all kinds of waste, otherwise how can the Ming Kingdom stand tall in the troubled times?
Now that the war has been in trouble for many years, there is no way to retreat, and only by breaking down and completely pacifying the world can we return a clear world to the world. With the heavy weapon in hand, I can't help myself now..."
Yang Shao couldn't help but show a heavy face when he said this, the corners of his mouth were tightened, and he looked at it for a long time after speaking, as if staring into the distance.
Yu Fu snuggled in his arms, her eyes turned red in an instant, and she tightened her hands tighter: "Brother Shao... When all this is over, we will find a place for men to farm and weave, and there will be no more national hatred and family hatred, and we will have a few more children together, carefree......"
"Okay, I promise you. When all this is over, we will find a place and never forget all this anymore. Yang Shao lowered his head and kissed her lightly, and suddenly as if he remembered something, the corners of his lips twitched.
Yu Fu was puzzled, tilted her head to look at him, tears still hanging on her face.
"Madame said that she would give me a few children, and it is not too early at this time, so why wait for later?" Yang Shao's solemn face, which was still calm and dignified just now, was completely loosened, and his eyebrows were replaced by the faceless scoundrel, "Madam, we might as well ......"
"You!" Yu Fu understood what he meant, and suddenly blushed and said, "This... It's not going to happen overnight, you... Don't you have a heavy weapon in your hand? I haven't finished the report yet......"
It's just a bullying joke, but who would have thought that Yu Fu would really be ashamed.
The eyes are lowered, the tears are flickering, the beautiful face that is as clear as the first snow is flushed with crimson, the color is better than the peach and plum, and there is a very seductive shyness in the extremely clear beauty, and the fragrance of flowers and willows is not enough to describe, this water lotus flower is not the appearance of the cool breeze.
It's not that he hasn't tasted the world before, Yang Shao only felt that if he looked at it more, he was already ecstatic for a while.
"The rest must stay up late to read it..."Once he got that thought, he couldn't stop it anymore, he couldn't help but circle Yu Fu and began to mess around.
"No, let's see first!" Yu Fu pouted and pushed him away, Yang Shao simply hit Hengqiang and hugged the top of his heart: "My heavy weapon can't wait now, if it suffocates to death for a while, any grand plan and great wish can be empty." After so many years, how can we live up to such a good night. ”
