Extra-ordinary (1)
Time slipped quietly, and in the blink of an eye, it had been a year since the new emperor ascended the throne.
It was when the ministers received the wedding card of the Gao family that they were surprised to realize that the mourning period of the first emperor had passed quietly. It's a bit of a trance.
"Time flies so fast, and in the blink of an eye, a year has passed." Zhao Yuanren, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, sighed to his wife Sun: "It's really like a different world." ”
Sun smiled: "No, these days are very fast." Thinking about the past, compared to the present, I think the current days are better. ”
Zhao Yuanren smiled.
That's not good! Her niece became the queen, and her niece-in-law was the Son of Heaven. He was promoted to the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and the Zhao family became a hot upstart in the capital. Sun's Mrs. Shangshu was held by a bunch of people everywhere she went, how could there be such a situation before.
Sun smiled and glanced at him: "Our Zhao family has a good life, of course I'm happy." More importantly, the Son of Heaven worked hard to govern and cherished the people. During the year, there were fewer wars, and the lives of the people gradually settled down. That's the best thing that comes in. ”
The imperial court has been trying its best to appease the people, and the people's hearts are stable, and life is naturally better.
"If it goes on like this, in another three years and five years, Dajin will be completely stable." Zhao Yuanren's eyes flashed with relief, and he said in a low voice: "To be honest, I have been very worried before. The emperor is too young and vigorous, and he is not a calm temper. I'm always worried that halfway through the court, the emperor will pick a pick, or refuse to approve the folds. ”
"I never thought that the emperor had behaved remarkably in the past year."
Although he occasionally squinted and snooze, or rolled his eyes impatiently, he could at least hold on until the end of the court.
The review is even more worthy of praise. No matter how many times you submit them every day, you must review them on the same day. And most of the reviews are decent, not out of line.
That's very comforting.
Sun lowered his voice and smiled: "I heard that the emperor was impatient to review the recital at first, and the queen mother tried every means to comfort him and accompany the emperor every night. Later it became the norm. ”
Zhao Yuanren glanced at Sun: "Don't talk nonsense about this." ”
Outsiders don't know, can they still be unclear about their husband and wife? Zhao Xiyan is good at calligraphy and can write more than ten fonts. The words written by others, she can simulate them exactly after a few glances.
The Son of Heaven has reviewed so many folds, and Zhao Xiyan's "credit" is indispensable.
If they know such taboos, they should not make a public announcement.
Sun nodded, indicating that he was tight-lipped and never mentioned these things in front of others.
The husband and wife gossiped, and soon turned the topic to Gao Pingping and Xu San's family affairs.
"Xu San is also a blessed one." Sun said with a smile: "This is the daughter of the Marquis of Zhongyong's mansion." He was just a soldier, and it was his creation to marry Gao Pingping as his wife. ”
Zhao Yuanren looked at the problem from a different angle than Sun: "The scenery of the Marquis Zhongyong's Mansion is all in the past. The Hou Mansion was deprived of his title the year before last, and the Marquis of Zhongyong was seriously injured and could no longer lead the army. Gao Wang is a little younger in the end, and in terms of the ability to lead troops to fight, he is a lot worse than the Marquis of Zhongyong. ”
"Now there are four major military camps in the capital, the Iron Guard Battalion is the first, and the Tiger Battalion is the second. There were few Janissaries, but they were all the most elite soldiers, and they were the third. The cavalry battalion is far worse than before, and it can be at the bottom. ”
"If you don't have high hopes, you will be robbed of your errand. The emperor can send Wu Anbo and his son to take over the Xiao cavalry camp. After a few years, the Gao family declined. ”
"It's different now. The daughter of the Gao family married Xu San, which is equivalent to the marriage of the Gao family and the Son of Heaven. The emperor attaches great importance to love and righteousness, Xu San has captured Zhou Sui alive, saved the loyal and brave marquis, made great contributions, and is now the youngest general in the Tiger Battalion. Such a Xu San, which noble daughter can't marry? ”
Once a son of heaven and a courtier. Xu Jing sat on the dragon chair, and Xu San, Xu Eleven, and Xu Erwu also followed the chicken dog to heaven.
Needless to say, Xu San has the best future. Xu Shiyi is the former lieutenant of the imperial school, Xu Erwu did not enter the palace, and has been staying in the Beihai Palace. However, Xu Jing did not treat Xu Erwu badly and gave him the official position of a military general of the fifth grade.
In short, the previous Xu Sangao couldn't afford to climb the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion.
Now, it's a good match.
Sun smiled: "You're right. Tomorrow, the Gao family will be happy to marry their daughter, and I have to prepare a generous gift. ”
……
I'm going to get married tomorrow.
Gao Pingping, a person who hates to marry like this, has to worry in his heart.
The door was pushed open, and Mrs. Gao entered.
"Mother," Gao Pingping got up and threw himself into his mother's arms, and said sullenly: "I'm a little afraid." ”
Mrs. Gao hugged her daughter with pity, and said a little politely: "You are nineteen years old this year, and if you don't get married, you will be an old girl." Other women are your age, and they have two children. Besides, haven't you been looking forward to this day all the time? What is there to be afraid of. ”
Gao Pingping: "......"
The complaint from my mother is accurate and sharp.
Gao Pingping's uneasiness quickly disappeared, and he stretched out his hand and pulled Mrs. Gao's sleeve and sat down: "Come on!" If you want to count it, I will count it. After today, I am the daughter-in-law of the Xu family. It won't be so convenient to scold me in the future. ”
Mrs. Gao didn't know whether to be angry or happy, so she couldn't help but slap Gao Pingping: "Your outspoken temper will have to be changed in the future." married someone and became a daughter-in-law, how can she be so open-mouthed. ”
Gao Pingping responded confidently: "I just have this temper, I can't change it." Moreover, Xu San likes my appearance. ”
Mrs. Gao: "......"
Mrs. Gao rubbed her forehead vigorously and taught her daughter in a low voice: "Xu San has changed his name a long time ago, and now his name is Xu Shan." Moreover, he was an errand boy in the Tiger Battalion and was a guerrilla general from the fourth grade. After getting married, you can call your husband a general, don't call him by his name. ”
However, she likes to call him Xu San!
After the marriage, Xu San came to see her many times in private. That's what she calls him when they're alone. He also responded happily, looking at her with a very gentle gaze.
Gao Pingping responded perfunctorily. lest your own mother and relatives talk about it again.
When Mrs. Gao saw her virtue, she was so angry that she patted her again: "Did you hear what I said?" Although he is from a humble background, he is not worthy of you. I've never been happy with this family business. However, if you really become a husband and wife, don't talk about these things. lest there be a rift in the hearts of the husband and wife. ”
Gao Pingping looked puzzled: "I never minded!" Aren't you the ones who have always minded? ”
Mrs. Gao choked.
"Mother, when Xu San and I return to the door, don't shake your face to show him." Gao Pingping muttered: "Don't look at him sullen and doesn't like to talk, in fact, his mind is very delicate." You mother-in-law can't look down on him, so don't show it. Otherwise, he would not have felt good in his heart. ”
Mrs. Gao: "......" (end of chapter)
