Chapter 111: The ministers obey the emperor's arrangement
Emperor Ming An didn't want to see Jiang Zongcheng at this time, but after thinking about it, as the king of a country, how could he be swayed by others.
"Announce him in."
Soon, Jiang Zongcheng entered the imperial study, and when he came in and saw that the virtuous concubine was also here, he felt bad.
After all, he came for Emo.
And the virtuous concubine used to belong to Jiang Juan.
Jiang Zongcheng quickly calmed down, and first asked Emperor Ming'an and the virtuous concubine to say goodbye, "Weichen meets the emperor and the concubine." β
"Jiang Aiqing is exempt." Emperor Ming An spoke.
Jiang Zongcheng thanked him.
Emperor Ming An didn't have the heart to play chess, and looked at Jiang Zongcheng, "Jiang Aiqing specially came to ask to see me, so what's the matter?" β
Jiang Zongcheng raised his eyes and quietly glanced at the face of the virtuous concubine next to him.
Then his heart was crossed, he knelt down in front of Emperor Ming'an, and fell to the ground, "Weichen is ashamed, there is indeed a matter, and I want to dare to ask the emperor to call the shots." β
"Tell me about it." Emperor Ming An thought to himself, but he was afraid that he also came for the marriage of Beining and Jiang Juan.
What a headache.
But at this juncture today, Xuan Che is not there, and no one is helping him stop it.
Jiang Zongcheng still knelt, plucked up his courage, and spoke, "Wei Chen's second daughter Jiang Yimo is devoted to His Royal Highness the North King, and His Royal Highness the North King has also privately invited Yi Mo several times, and now the people are gossiping in private, and Wei Chen implore the emperor to be the master of mercy and give Mo to His Royal Highness the North King as the main concubine." β
"Impossible!" Without waiting for Emperor Ming An to react, Concubine Xian had already vetoed it.
Emperor Ming An didn't have much impression of this second daughter of the Jiang family, and couldn't help but cast his eyes at the virtuous concubine, "What Jiang Aiqing said, but is it true?" β
"Beining is serious, and he has privately invited the second girl of the Jiang family several times?"
Concubine Xian's eyes were a little evasive, she didn't open her eyes, and glared at Jiang Zongcheng angrily.
What a guts!
dared to ask for a concubine in his family.
Concubine Xian stretched out her hand, held Emperor Ming'an's arm, and said coquettishly, "Your Majesty, this young man and woman, when they meet in private, they don't have to be involved in any relationship between men and women!" β
"The concubine heard Bei'er talk about it, saying that she just admired Miss Jiang Er's talent, and every time they met, they just discussed poetry."
"If you don't believe it, you can send someone to ask King Jing, Bei'er has a lot of good poems from him!"
Fortunately, Concubine Xian was fortunate that she had found out very well before, otherwise she wouldn't know what to say.
Emperor Ming An looked at Jiang Zongcheng again, "Jiang Aiqing, are you sure you have figured it out?" β
Jiang Zongcheng knew that the virtuous concubine was difficult, but for the sake of Yimo today, no matter what, he had to solve this matter.
Jiang Zongcheng remembered what Jiang had said to him yesterday.
He looked at Emperor Ming An with a firm gaze, not afraid at all, "But as far as Weichen knows, the king of the north and the little girl already have a skin-to-skin relationship." β
Although it has not reached that final step, for unmarried men and women, kissing is considered to be crossing the line.
He really never expected that Yimo would do so many things behind his back, his father.
"What? No way! Concubine Xian's voice was amplified unconsciously.
Skin-to-skin?
Bei'er never told her!
Emperor Ming An's eyes were dark at the moment, and he expected that Jiang Zongcheng would not dare to lie in front of him, so it must be true.
The second girl of the Jiang family, although she is a concubine, is also a concubine of the Guogong Mansion and a girl from a white family.
If it weren't for Ye Beining, a stinky boy, who was really a bastard, I believe that Jiang Zongcheng wouldn't be able to pull down this old face and ask for a concubine.
Emperor Ming An glanced at the virtuous concubine, and there was already a bit of anger in his eyes.
The virtuous concubine noticed that the emperor was already very unhappy, and if she continued to obstruct it, it would inevitably make the emperor dissatisfied.
Jiang Zongcheng is really cunning!
Seeing that he still had to rely on him, an important minister, to support Beining, now he dared to put pressure on her.
Concubine Xian Guifei couldn't tear her face left and right, thought about it, curled her lips and smiled, "Your Majesty, otherwise this is the case......"
"Since Miss Jiang Er is so infatuated with our Bei'er, we are parents in the end, and it is not good to beat mandarin ducks."
However, Miss Jiang Er made a transgressive act before she was married, and this kind of behavior is also disgraceful. If you let her be Bei'er's concubine......"
"The concubine felt that she was not capable of taking charge of a huge Northern Palace. The main mother of the Northern Palace, she has to choose a woman with a pure heart. β
When Jiang Zongcheng heard this, his face turned blue with anger.
Concubine Xian's words are undoubtedly ironic that Yimo is an indecent girl.
But he couldn't refute it.
"What do you mean?" Emperor Ming'an looked at her, obviously agreeing with the words of the virtuous concubine.
Before getting married, he met frequently with men in private and made outrageous acts, which really lost everyone's demeanor.
Such a small family is angry, and he can't get on the stage, and he really doesn't feel at ease, let such a person run a North Palace.
Concubine Xian still smiled, "In the end, she is also the concubine of Lord Guogong, and she is not a girl from a small portal, being Bei'er's concubine is really a bit aggrieved, if not, let's be a side concubine." β
"Your Majesty, what do you think?"
It's just a side concubine, anyway, the position of the main concubine is still empty, and it doesn't hurt.
That Jiang Yimo, she has also seen it, frankly speaking, aside from being a concubine, everything else is good.
Beauty and wisdom are all there.
Being a side concubine is enough.
In the future, when Jiang Juan enters the mansion, this little maid can still help suppress a little Jiang Juan.
Emperor Ming An felt that this arrangement was very appropriate, it was indeed a bit too much to be a concubine, and it was not enough to be a concubine, so it was extremely suitable to be a side concubine.
"Jiang Aiqing, what do you think?" Emperor Ming An asked Jiang Zongcheng.
What else can Jiang Zongcheng say.
The emperor did not veto the words of the virtuous concubine, which means that he agreed.
Although she is only a side concubine, in the end, she can successfully marry into the Beiwang Mansion, although she has temporarily wronged Yimo, but people have to look forward.
The position of the concubine is still vacant, and the battle of the prince will officially start in the coming day, as long as Ye Beining has a heart for the position of the crown prince, he has a way to let the virtuous concubine beg him.
"Everything is subject to the emperor's arrangement." Jiang Zongcheng kowtowed again.
Emperor Ming An nodded, "That's good, then I will draw up a decree to give marriage, and give the second girl of the Jiang family to marry the king of the north as a side concubine, and wait for the Ministry of Rites to draw up a good day and an auspicious day, and choose a day to get married." β
"Thank you, long live the emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
After Jiang Zongcheng left the imperial study, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Hearing that Emperor Ming An was inside, he summoned people from the Ministry of Rites to come over to discuss matters.
The side concubine is also good.
At least it also fulfilled Yimo's wish.
On the way out of the palace, Jiang Zongcheng met Jun Xuanche's carriage entering the palace.
"Meet His Royal Highness the Regent."
Jun Xuanche lifted the curtain of the carriage, and when he caught a glimpse of Jiang Zongcheng, he seemed to be smiling, "Lord Guogong, why did you come out of the palace at this hour?" β
"Back to His Royal Highness the Regent, the minister has some important matters, so I will discuss with the emperor."
Jun Xuanche let out an 'oh', "The Guogong Mansion has been very lively recently, which must have worried the Guogong Lord." β
Jiang Zongcheng smiled awkwardly.
Jun Xuanche didn't say anything more, lowered the curtain, and let the carriage move forward.
After a while, someone whispered in his earβ
"Jiang Zongcheng came to ask for a concubine in his mansion, and the emperor promised the concubine of the Guogong Mansion and the concubine of the North King."
Jun Xuanche raised his eyebrows, "Oh? Just a side concubine? β
That's not going to work.
