Chapter 257: Marriage to the Four Princes
Before the start of the early dynasty, King Zheng beat the four princes at the gate of the palace. As soon as he got out of the car and saw the four princes, he angrily waved his fist at the four princes. However, the fourth prince did not get beaten all the time, and after being punched by King Zheng inexplicably, he immediately fought back. So, the brothers fought at the palace gate.
King Zheng beat the four princes and scolded the four princes angrily.
Don't look at the four princes' polite appearance, but they are a little weak when they beat people, King Zheng is not his opponent, and he was beaten down by the four princes after a while. If it weren't for someone pulling the fight, King Zheng would probably be beaten very badly by the four princes.
The four princes are both civil and military, and his martial arts are as good as their talents.
When King Zheng first started beating the four princes, he looked domineering, but after a few breaths, he was beaten by the four princes and yelled.
There was a bruise on the corner of the fourth prince's mouth, which was beaten by King Zheng while he was not paying attention. And King Zheng was beaten by the four princes...... Appalling.
"Fourth, this king is your brother, you dare to beat this king." The corners of King Zheng's mouth were beaten and bloody, and a face that he thought was handsome was beaten by the fourth prince and his nose was blue and swollen. His court clothes were also messed up, the jade crown was also a little crooked, and the whole person was very embarrassed, and he didn't have the graceful appearance he usually had at all.
He covered his face with one hand, pointed at the fourth prince with the other, and scolded angrily: "Fourth, you have no brother!" You're rebellious! You are rebellious and arrogant! You are arrogant and domineering, ...... "King Zheng didn't expect that he would be beaten by the four princes, and he had no power to fight back.
Before the words fell, the fourth prince looked at him with a cold look, he only felt a chill in his heart, and he was so frightened that he closed his mouth.
The four princes didn't pay attention to King Zheng, and had a cold face.
King Zheng felt that he was too cowardly, so he immediately stiffened his neck and continued to scold the four princes angrily: "Fourth, you are a fox spirit......"
The fourth prince opened his mouth to interrupt King Zheng's words, and said in a cold tone: "The third emperor brother is cautious. ”
"This king ......" King Zheng wanted to say something, but was covered by Anyang Hou.
The Marquis of Anyang knew why King Zheng was angry with the four princes. If King Zheng is allowed to continue to quarrel, it will only be King Zheng who will be embarrassed.
"Woo woo woo woo ......" King Zheng, who was covered in his mouth, flaunted his claws.
Seeing King Zheng's embarrassed appearance with a blue nose and swollen face, Marquis Anyang felt that King Zheng was not suitable to go to the court again, and was about to persuade King Zheng to ask for leave to go back. Just then, the palace gates opened.
King Zheng can't leave.
An Yanghou's mood instantly became heavy.
The early dynasty had not yet begun, and the ministers first went to the side hall of the Chengguang Hall to wait.
Sun Kui brought hot tea and snacks with the little eunuch, so that the ministers could moisten their throats and cushion their stomachs in front of the court. Sometimes it is not uncommon for the morning pilgrimage to be held for a long time and end at noon. Sometimes there is even a morning meeting until the afternoon. Therefore, it is necessary to prepare tea and snacks for the ministers before the morning exercises, otherwise the ministers will be thirsty and hungry after a long time.
When he saw that King Zheng and the four princes had injuries on their faces, he was shocked and hurriedly asked what had happened.
King Zheng said stiffly, he just fell.
Sun Kui: "...... Your Royal Highness King Zheng, do you think the slave is a fool?"
Immediately, he asked the four princes again.
The fourth prince didn't lie, and said honestly: "King Zheng beat it." ”
"Fourth!" King Zheng slapped the table in his hand suddenly, stood up and glared at the fourth prince, "You dare to sue, it's so shameless!" ”
The fourth prince looked at King Zheng with cold eyes, and said, "I'm just telling the truth!" ”
"You ......"
The fourth prince didn't pay any more attention to King Zheng, looked back at Sun Kui, and politely told Sun Kui in detail about King Zheng's beating of him.
"Fourth, you despicable and sinister ......" Zheng Wang Tie scolded the fourth prince with a blue face.
As soon as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince walked into the side hall, he heard the words of the four princes and the scolding of King Zheng. He kept a straight face and said a stern lesson: "Third brother, you hit the fourth brother first, it's your fault, how can you scold the fourth brother." ”
King Zheng was most annoyed that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince criticized him by posing as an eldest brother. He scolded His Royal Highness the Crown Prince with a dissatisfied face and said, "Big brother, this is nothing for you, what are you talking about." ”
The minister who supported His Royal Highness the Crown Prince opened his mouth and scolded King Zheng fiercely, saying that His Royal Highness King Zheng was rebellious and arrogant, disrespecting his eldest brother and disrespecting His Royal Highness the Prince.
As soon as Zheng Wang wanted to say something, Sun Kui returned and invited him and the four princes to meet the emperor.
Hearing this, King Zheng's heart tightened, and he immediately coaxed. Fang just beat the four princes at the gate of the palace, and the arrogance disappeared completely.
It's over, and the emperor will definitely punish him! Father will definitely beat him!
The emperor will not be merciful at all when he beats up his son. Once, King Zheng was whipped by the emperor with a whip, and he only had one breath left.
King Zheng, who has become an adult, is still as afraid of the emperor as he was when he was a child, after all, he was beaten a lot when he was a child.
The fourth prince had a frank face and was not afraid at all.
Marquis Anyang looked at His Royal Highness King Zheng who walked out of the side hall, and sighed helplessly in his heart.
Thousands of instructions were told to let His Highness be honest and not to do anything out of line, but His Highness still didn't listen to the persuasion and beat the four princes.
His Royal Highness beating the four princes is completely rude, and it will definitely displease the emperor.
Because of the matter of Princess Annanguo, the emperor's anger towards His Royal Highness has not subsided. Now His Royal Highness has beaten the four princes because of Princess Annanguo, which will make the emperor even more angry with His Royal Highness.
originally wanted to find an important position and change a good fief for His Royal Highness in the next two years, but now His Royal Highness has beaten the four princes, but I am afraid that I will not want it in the past few years.
Your Highness, why are you so breathless?
If Concubine Shu had another son, Anyang Hou would definitely not care about King Zheng, the nephew who was dragging his feet.
King Zheng has done a lot of outrageous things since he was a child, and Anyang Hou doesn't know how many times he wiped his butt for him.
For King Zheng, a nephew who has not been worried since he was a child, Anyang Hou is really ...... Love, hate, and helplessness.
In the dining room of Chengguang Palace, the emperor had just had a good breakfast, and when he heard that King Zheng had beaten the four princes, he was naturally angry.
"Fourth, what did you do to anger His Royal Highness King Zheng, who has a noble status?" The emperor smiled and said, "Fourth, this is yours, His Royal Highness King Zheng has a noble status, he beat you, how can you fight back, you should let His Royal Highness King Zheng beat you to death." “
When King Zheng heard the emperor's strange words, his blue and purple face suddenly turned pale, and his eyes were full of horror.
He fell to his knees, shaking violently. He wanted to say something, but he couldn't say a word because he was too frightened.
The fourth prince kneeling beside him was not afraid at all, and also cooperated with the emperor's words: "What my father said is that as a younger brother, it is right to be beaten by my brother, and I should not fight back, even if I am beaten to death by my brother." ”
When His Royal Highness King Zheng heard the four princes say this, he scolded the four princes in his heart.
"His Royal Highness King Zheng, why did you beat the four princes?"
The emperor's tone was not a little angry, and was even full of banter, but it made His Royal Highness King Zheng tremble even more.
"Father...... Father...... Father, the son knows that he is wrong...... his lips also trembled very much, "The son should not beat the fourth brother, the son knows that he is wrong." ”
"Your Royal Highness King Zheng is so majestic, where is there anything wrong, it is that the fourth child does not know each other."
His Royal Highness King Zheng knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times: "It's the son's fault, the son's minister shouldn't beat the fourth brother and ask his father for forgiveness." ”
"You're not wrong, it's the fourth child who is wrong." The emperor looked at the four princes and said in a gentle tone, "Fourth, don't apologize to His Royal Highness King Zheng soon." ”
"Father, it's the son's fault, the fourth brother is right." His Royal Highness King Zheng hurriedly turned around and apologized to the four princes, "Fourth brother." I'm sorry, it's my fault, I hit you on the spur of the moment, it's my fault......"
Before coming to the dining room, His Royal Highness King Zheng was very arrogant in front of the four princes, but now he kept apologizing to the four princes.
The fourth prince hurriedly said that it was his fault, not His Royal Highness King Zheng's fault, it was his younger brother who was not good at making his brother unhappy, and his brother should beat him, and he should not fight back.
His Royal Highness King Zheng hurriedly said that it was his fault, that he was wrong......
With a bang, the emperor put down the teacup in his hand.
His Royal Highness King Zheng and the four princes froze in fright, and neither of them dared to say anything more.
"King Zheng, let's talk about it, where did the fourth child provoke you, I will call the shots for you?" The emperor's tone was very kind, but in the ears of King Zheng, it was very terrifying. "If the fourth child is wrong, I will help you beat him."
"It's the son's fault...... The fourth brother is right...... "King Zheng now regrets beating the fourth prince very much. If he wants to fight, he should also send someone to beat the fourth.
"Don't you say?" The Emperor smiled and said, "Then I'll guess." ”
"Father, the emperor ......" King Zheng couldn't wait to faint at this time.
"Because of your side concubine, isn't it?"
When the four princes heard the emperor's words, they looked at King Zheng in surprise and confusion.
"Princess Zhengbian?" Who is Princess Zheng Bian and what does it have to do with him.
Seeing the confused look on the faces of the four princes, Sun Kui, who was standing on the side, kindly reminded him: "Fourth Highness, the side princess of His Royal Highness King Zheng is the princess of Annan. ”
When the fourth prince heard this, a sudden look appeared on his face, but then he showed a puzzled look.
"What's wrong with Princess Annan, what does it have to do with me?"
"Fourth, the person that Princess Annanguo fancied was you, but he was cut off by His Royal Highness King Zheng, who was noble in our status, and had to be the side princess of His Royal Highness King Zheng."
The fourth prince furrowed his brows, and said with a very unpleasant face: "Father, the son and the princess of Annan Kingdom have no dealings. He didn't even remember who King Zheng's side concubine was.
"You are a righteous gentleman, but I can't bear to be judged by someone with the heart of a villain." The emperor looked at King Zheng with a disgusted expression on his face, "You have the ability to marry the princess of Annan, why don't you have the ability to let the family have you in their hearts?"
His Royal Highness King Zheng's face flushed with shame. He wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say.
"It's the son's fault, ask my father to punish him."
"The princess has come to beg me to let me agree to her and leave with you, what do you think?"
When King Zheng heard this, he looked up at the emperor in shock: "Father, if the son does not agree, the son will never make peace with her." "Although King Zheng has long been tired of the princess of Annan, he can't reconcile with her, and he has to offer her.
"I didn't see that you are still an infatuated species, and you are so affectionate to her." The emperor's words were full of mockery, and the sarcastic King Zheng's face turned red again and again.
King Zheng lowered his head, bit his lip and said, "Erchen...... Erchen ...... Reluctance and separation. "If it weren't for the iron mines, gold mines, and silver mines of Annan, he wouldn't have married that cheap woman as the side princess." Father, the sons beg you, the sons are unwilling to reconcile with her. ”
"You don't want to, but people want to reconcile with you." As the emperor spoke, his face turned cold, and his tone became cold, "The princess said that if she can't reconcile with you, she will kill herself, do you think I can not agree?" ”
"Father, please give your son another chance, and your son will definitely make her change her mind." King Zheng begged the emperor with an anxious face, "Father, please give your sons another chance!" ”
The emperor looked at King Zheng and did not speak.
The four princes, who were kneeling beside His Royal Highness King Zheng, did not speak. This matter has nothing to do with him, and he doesn't need to help King Zheng intercede.
"Father, it's the son's fault, the son-in-law shouldn't beat the fourth brother, you punish the son-in-law, but please don't agree to Princess Annan's request to leave, the father begs you......" He must not reconcile with that.
Sun Kui on the side hesitated, but decided to open his mouth to remind the emperor: "Your Majesty, it's time to go to the early court." ”
The emperor stood up and looked at King Zheng condescendingly.
King Zheng looked at the emperor pitifully: "Father, please." ”
"I will give you a chance, if you can't make Princess Annan change her mind, I will let her reconcile with you."
"Father Xie, the son will definitely make the princess change her mind." King Zheng breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
"As for the fact that you beat the fourth......"
"Father, the son is willing to accept the punishment." King Zheng said with a sincere face, "I beg my father to punish him." ”
"Go back and think about it for a month." As he spoke, the emperor raised his foot and kicked King Zheng down.
His kick was not heavy, but it was not light, and there was a painful look on the face of King Zheng who kicked him.
"Thank you, Father."
"."
King Zheng stood up slowly and left the dining room.
"Fourth, let's go."
"Yes, Father."
King Zheng's appearance of blue nose and swollen eyes is not suitable for the court. After he exited the dining room, he hurriedly left the palace.
The princess of Annan begged the emperor to agree to her peace and departure, but King Zheng did not know. He has to go back and coax the princess of Annan now, otherwise his father will definitely agree to the woman to reconcile with him. If that cheap woman is allowed to follow the fourth child, then the royal family of Annam will be biased towards the fourth child.
In the main hall of the Chengguang Hall, the early dynasty has begun.
Before the emperor could open his mouth to teach the Marquis of Anyang, the Marquis of Anyang took the initiative to ask the emperor for his guilt, saying that he did not stop King Zheng, and that his uncle did not teach King Zheng well.
Hearing King Zheng say this, the emperor waved his hand at him and said, it was not his fault, it was his father who did not teach his son well, and it had nothing to do with him.
This sentence frightened the Marquis of Anyang's face to change greatly, and he hurriedly asked the emperor for his guilt, saying that he didn't mean that......
The emperor interrupted the words of the Marquis of Anyang, who did not dare to say any more, and obediently returned to the queue.
The ministers who had something to do said one after another. It's all little things, nothing big.
"Oh yes, the fourth child will soon be an adult, and I forgot to marry him."
Hearing the emperor say this, many ministers became concerned.
For His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the Acting King, although the Four Princes will not pose a threat to them for the time being, they have always been wary of the Four Princes.
Over the years, the four princes have not interacted with the ministers, and they look like they are "indisputable", but His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the Acting King have never believed that the four princes will not take the throne. There is no prince who does not want to fight for that position, unless he is a fool.
Zhao Yao: "......" I think I seem to have connotation.
The fourth prince is about to become an adult, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the Acting King, as well as the ministers, will be very concerned about his title, fiefdom, and marriage.
Now the emperor has not clearly stated which place to give to the four princes as fiefs, but the ministers all speculate that the emperor will give Liangzhou to the four princes as fiefs. As for the future princess of the four princes, most of the ministers speculated that it should be the Li family, but His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the Acting King were worried that the emperor would give the daughter of the military general to the fourth prince as a princess.
The fourth prince himself is very calm. For him, whoever he marries is the same as a princess.
The emperor saw that many ministers under him were very concerned about the marriage of the four princes, and the corners of his mouth were hooked to reveal a playful smile.
"There are a lot of girls in Aiqing's family, I don't know which Aiqing is willing to be in-laws with me?"
The ministers below, you look at me, I look at you, but they didn't dare to speak. Many of them wanted to be in-laws with the emperor, but they didn't dare to say it.
"Isn't it, I'm so bad, no one wants to be my family?" The Emperor looked hurt.
"Your Majesty, the minister is willing to be your in-laws."
Who is it?
The ministers looked at the man who had said this, and then their faces showed consternation.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the Acting King both had shocked expressions on their faces when they saw the person who said this. The two of them also exclaimed in unison: "General Lu?!" ”
Looking at General Lu who walked out of the column, the ministers gasped in shock.
The fourth prince, who was originally calm, also showed a look of surprise on his face when he saw General Lu.
"Yo, Lao Lu, you are willing to be my in-laws."
General Lu's tone was full of deference: "It is the honor of the minister to be in-laws with the emperor, and it is the blessing that the minister's daughter can marry the fourth highness, which she has cultivated for eight lifetimes." ”
The emperor patted the armrest of the dragon chair vigorously, and laughed: "Well said, Lao Lu is still your vision." ”
General Lu was a little embarrassed by the emperor's praise, and a look of shame appeared on his face.
When the other ministers saw his shy appearance, they only felt unappetizing.
They really underestimated General Lu, they thought that General Lu was an honest man, but they didn't expect him to be such a treacherous and flattering person.
General Lu is very quiet in the court on weekdays, so quiet that he has no sense of existence. However, none of the ministers of the DPRK and China dared to underestimate him.
He is the general of Sanpin Pingdong and has made many military exploits. He was once the emperor's domestic slave, and it can be said that he was also the emperor's confidant.
Thirty or forty years ago, General Lu's family was almost killed by bandits, it was the emperor who saved their family, and then General Lu had to repay the favor and follow the emperor's side, and also made cattle and horses for the emperor, the emperor had no choice but to accept him as a younger brother, but he was unwilling, he had to be the emperor's servant, and the emperor had to let him.
Since then, he has been by the emperor's side, serving and protecting the emperor with all his heart. On the battlefield, he saved the emperor several times.
Although he is not as good as Shen Hu and the others in leading troops to fight, he is still very powerful compared to others.
Even if he is no longer the emperor's servant, he has long been a famous Sanpin general, but he still regards himself as a servant and has always been loyal to the emperor.
"Tut-tut, except for Lao Lu, you people are really disappointing to me." The Emperor's tone was very plaintive, "I didn't expect you to hate me so much, I'm so sad." ”
He Xiang and Taishi Liu watched the emperor act indifferently.
The other ministers knew that the emperor was acting, but they were still fooled and said that they were willing to be in-laws with the emperor.
The ministers scrambled to say that their daughters or nieces, or nieces were good-looking and virtuous, and they would definitely be good princesses of the Fourth Highness.
The emperor glared at the ministers and said with an arrogant face: "You want to be in-laws with me now, but I don't want to. ”
"Your Majesty, don't, the minister really wants to be in-laws with you......"
The Emperor raised his hand to interrupt the ministers. He said with a serious expression: "Since Lao Lu was the first to stand up and say that he was willing to be in-laws with me, then Lao Lu would be it." ”
When the other ministers heard this, they looked extremely surprised.
Although when General Fang Cailu stood up, the ministers already knew in their hearts, but when they heard the emperor say this himself, they still couldn't hide their shock in their hearts.
The faces of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the Acting King became very ugly in an instant.
"Lao Lu's daughter is good, is the fourth child willing to marry her as a princess?"
The fourth prince was stunned, but now he has come back to his senses, but his heart is still in turmoil.
"The son is willing, and it is a blessing for the son to be able to marry General Lu's daughter." He never expected that his father would give General Lu's daughter to him in marriage, which ...... Father, Emperor, ......
"In this case, fourth, I will marry Lao Lu's daughter to you as a princess."
The four princes knelt on the ground and made a big salute to the emperor: "Thank you, father!" ”
General Lu also knelt on the ground and saluted solemnly: "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”
The emperor said with a smile on his face: "Old Lu, in the future, we will be sons and daughters." ”
"It's a minister's honor!"
Many ministers were stunned by this marriage. Not only did the four princes not expect it, but even they didn't expect that the emperor would give General Lu's daughter to the four princes in marriage.
Although General Lu is not as high-grade as Chu Ying and the other four generals, he is also the emperor's confidant. And he is also different from the four generals, he has been by the emperor's side since he was a child.
Now, the emperor wants to give his daughter to the four princes, which means that the emperor values the four highnesses very much.
His Royal Highness the Acting King has always been favored by the emperor, but the Acting Princess is a member of the Xuanping Marquis Mansion, not the daughter of any general. And His Royal Highness the Crown Prince too.
The ministers thought that the emperor would not give his confidant's daughter to any prince, because they did not want his henchmen to be involved in the struggle between the princes. Unexpectedly, the emperor asked the fourth prince to marry the daughter of General Lu as the princess, which ...... It's amazing!
Could it be that the fourth prince is the emperor's favorite son?
One watch is coming, and there is another watch in the evening.
Emperor: It's late, I don't want to be with you anymore.
The ministers wept bitterly: Your Majesty, give the ministers another chance.
Zhao Yao: Obviously there is no matter for me, why am I connotated:
Author: Because they think you're stupid.
Ministers: The clown turned out to be myself.
In the end, I still ask for a monthly pass! Leave a message! Ask for a tip!
Today, there are at least more than 9,000 words in the two watches, a lot, isn't it time for the old irons to leave a message?
