Chapter 73: Marriage

King Jin's words woke up Luo Shangshu.

Luo Yongliang ruined Han Qingwan's reputation, and she must have hated it at this time. If there is really a day when Han Qingwan is the queen, I am afraid that she will not let go of Luo Yongliang, or even let go of Luo Fu.

But if he proposes marriage, the emperor is afraid that he will be the first to not let him go!

Luo Shangshu knelt on the ground and said in a wailing voice, "The minister is in a dilemma, ask the prince for guidance!"

Zhao Chengyuan lowered his eyes and looked at the buds and leaves in the tea soup, and said lightly, "Lord Luo has been an official for more than 30 years, and he has walked more roads than the bridge that this king has crossed, so why do you need this king to give guidance."

Luo Shangshu was stunned.

Suddenly.

It's not okay to marry, it's not okay not to marry, but there are not only two ways.

If Han Qingwan can't be the queen, Luo Mansion will naturally be safe!

He knelt on the ground and kowtowed, "The lower officials are taught, thank the prince for saving his life!" If he needs it in the future, he is willing to do the work of dogs and horses."

The phoenix prophecy of the emperor is believed, and Han Qingwan has the Dingguo Mansion and the Yongning Marquis Mansion behind him, and he alone may not be able to completely stop Han Qingwan from becoming the queen. Then winning over King Jin is the best way.

Zhao Chengyuan raised his hand, "Lord Luo got up and spoke. This king can't save anyone, and everything has to be done on his own."

"Lord Xie. That's what the prince said." Luo Shangshu sat back again.

Zhao Chengyuan slowly tasted the tea, "I heard that you are proficient in the tea ceremony, you come to taste this tea."

"The lower officials don't dare to get an axe......

Luo Shangshu picked up the teacup and sniffed it first, surprise flashed in his eyes, he took another sip, put down the teacup and replied.

"The tea soup is clear, fruity and sweet, and the woody fragrance is far and rich, which is the best jade agarwood in Cangyuan Mountain in Xiangping. Xiaguan was fortunate to be rewarded by the emperor with a cup, and after drinking, his lips and teeth remained fragrant, although several years have passed, he still remembers it vividly. It's a pity that jade agarwood is extremely precious, and the annual output is only ten catties, and ordinary people can't drink a cup."

"That's right." Zhao Chengyuan picked up the tea tube on the table, the color was dark, "Agarwood is precious, but it is just a tea tube used as half a catty of jade agarwood."

He got up and paced to Luo Shangshu's side, and put the whole tube of tea in Luo Shangshu's hand, "Since Lord Luo likes it, take this tea back and drink it."

Luo Shangshu hurriedly excused himself, "The lower official is ashamed and dare not be! A gentleman does not take the favor of others......

"You take it, and this king has no shortage."

Zhao Chengyuan paced back and sat back, "Brother Huang got two catties this year, and he shared half a catty for this king. Before that, Yongning Hou also sent two catties over. This king can't drink so much, and if he puts it away, it will spoil for nothing."

"Then the subordinate will be respectful, and it is better to obey his orders."

Luo Shangshu held the tea tube in his arms like a treasure, and thought about it in his eyes.

That is to say, the Yongning Marquis Mansion got jade agarwood earlier than the emperor, more than the emperor, or even a lot more.

The Yongning Marquis Mansion is rich and noble, and he knows that the household department is a big Zhou money bag, and he is in charge of collecting money and spending silver, and there are too many articles that can be done in the middle.

But if wealth overshadows the emperor......

He stood up and arched his hand, "I heard that the Marquis of Yongning and the prefect of Xiangping Prefecture are about to return to Beijing in the near future, and the two cases of destroying the gate and the Jinzhou garrison case will inevitably involve the military department, and the lower officials should always prepare in advance. The subordinate will take his leave first."

Zhao Chengyuan hummed lightly, "Master Luo, go slowly."

Luo Shangshu bowed and retreated, looking at the majestic outer study, and his heart swelled with awe.

--

The Imperial Study.

Emperor Zhao Chengche of Qingming was dressed in a fold at the desk, his brows tightly locked.

Zhao Chengyuan paced to the opposite side of the dragon case, "Brother Huang, it's time for dinner."

Emperor Qingming glanced up at him, "Seventh Emperor Brother, you came just in time, and the two of us brothers will have dinner together in a while. You sit down first, and I'll finish this excerpt."

"Brother Huang is busy first."

Zhao Chengyuan casually walked around the imperial study, and Fang stood still in front of a picture of Autumn Mountain, admiring it with his hands.

In the picture, the mountains are stacked, the thousand rocks are showing, and the rapids and waterfalls are intertwined. In the mist of late autumn, there are ancient trees and pines, and there is a temple

The corners of the eaves are hidden in it.

"What do you see?" Emperor Qingming walked up to him and asked with a smile.

"Master Xuanzhi's true handiwork, Cangyuan Mountain."

Emperor Qingming asked quietly, "How can you tell it's Cangyuan Mountain?"

Zhao Chengyuan pointed to the eaves corner and said, "This is the pagoda of Hongtai Temple, and my brother once went to Hongtai Temple to ask Master Xuanzhi to ask for Mobao, but unfortunately he didn't have the opportunity to see it."

He sighed, "It can be seen that the identity of this royal family is not good everywhere."

Emperor Qingming's eyes suddenly disappeared, and he pointed at him and laughed helplessly, "Master Xuanzhi jumped out of the red dust, how could he see his identity and status in his eyes. I think you're too idle, and I should find you an errand. I'm so busy here that I can't even eat, but you have the leisure to enjoy the mountains and rivers."

Zhao Chengyuan said with a smile, "The imperial brother is prosperous in the Spring and Autumn Period, it must be okay to work harder, so don't beat the idea of the younger brother."

He pointed to the painting on the wall, "But this painting, since the imperial brother hung it out, he must be willing to part with love."

Emperor Qingming laughed and led him to the side of the main hall, "You have taken a lot of good things from me, but not this time."

"Brother Huang, but who did you promise it to?"

"You don't have to ask, I won't tell a word." Emperor Qingming smiled and instructed the eunuch Wu Jian, "Hide the picture of the Autumn Mountain in the box, so that the King of Jin will not worry about it."

Wu Jian smiled and promised.

There is a long dining table in the side hall, with a variety of meals, and there are several palace maids and eunuchs waiting on the side.

Zhao Chengyuan cleaned his hands and said, "The imperial brother approved Han Rui's resignation, and the younger brother has to say thank you."

"You want to please the beauty, even if he is a member of the third grade, I will be right."

Zhao Chengyuan smiled, "The younger brother is indeed trying to please the beautiful woman, and my aunt's smile has not been broken in the past two days."

"Oh?" Emperor Qingming raised his eyes to look at him, "What does this have to do with Mrs. Old Hou?"

"Back then, my aunt offended the old Duchess of Dingguo, and my uncle was demoted from Duke Anling to Duke Anlinghou, and now my brother has an easy opportunity, and he should always return it."

"Do you remember these old grudges?"

Zhao Chengyuan said, "When the Duke of Dingguo raised his sword and entered the Anling Mansion, the younger brother can still remember it clearly. I can't demote his knighthood this time, and I can barely make do with his brother."

Emperor Qingming put down his chopsticks and frowned, "An Linghou and Dingguo Gong are my right-hand men, and after so many years, they have been so incompatible, if you don't help me persuade peace, you will just add to the chaos."

Zhao Chengyuan said, "Brother Chen, this is helping the imperial brother. Dingguo is already a first-class duke, and he is a first-class general, and the old duchess is already a first-class lady. When the Duke of Dingguo returns triumphantly, the royal brother is already rewarded. It's hard to save face."

He paused and smiled, "But now it's different, the old Duchess Dingguo despises the royal family, and the Duke of Dingguo will definitely come to plead for his mother. At that time, the royal brother will say, "The merits and demerits are offset", and the Duke of Dingguo will be grateful."

Emperor Qingming's expression was deep, "There is no reward for rewarding, and those who are masters are afraid of this. But if it's as simple as you think, that's fine."

He looked at Zhao Chengyuan for a moment and asked, "That Miss Chen family, I heard that she is both talented and beautiful, and you have a life-saving grace for her, how about I give you a marriage?"
