Chapter 11 Side Concubine
Three days ago.
The county lord of Yixin has settled down.
Emperor Qitai called Qin Zhiyan to the imperial study and asked about his position.
Qin Zhiyan replied fluently, and during the conversation, Emperor Qitai looked at his son, who was already over the age of the weak crown, and suddenly asked: "You are already twenty years old, yesterday, your mother asked if it was time to prepare for you to marry, and it was also my negligence, so I remembered to care about your life events." ”
Qin Zhiyan smiled disappreciatively, "Father and Emperor have every opportunity, and there is an endless stream of major events from all sides, how can such a small matter be worth worrying about." ”
Emperor Qitai's face tensed, so he was unhappy, "What nonsense?" How is your marriage a trivial matter? ”
Seeing that Qin Zhiyan was a lot of positive colors, Emperor Qitai's face softened, he looked at this outstanding son, and asked lovingly, "Do you have a daughter you like?" I heard that the second daughter of the head of the household is naturally beautiful, with a blue heart and a good color, do you like it? ”
Qin Zhiyan shook his head without hesitation, and said bluntly: "I haven't noticed it, the nobles are too squeamish, and the sons don't like it." ”
"Oh? Then you have someone you like. ”
Emperor Qitai asked without moving.
Qin Zhiyan nodded, "Erchen has also participated in a lot of banquets in recent days, and I have seen many famous and noble girls, these daughters who grew up in the capital are all good-looking, but they are too squeamish to get along with Erchen." A few days ago, I met an interesting girl, with bright teeth and bright eyes, virtue and skill, intelligence and decisiveness, and my son liked it. ”
Emperor Qitai became interested, and asked repeatedly: "You have to say that, which girl is it?" ”
"It's the eldest daughter of Shaoqing of Taichang Temple, Ye Gantang. I met in the eldest princess's mansion that day, the woman suffered hardships, but her heart was not weak, she knew how to ask her sons for help, and she was even more liked by the eldest princess. ”
Emperor Qitai stared at Qin Zhiyan and said slowly: "Listen to you, the character and intelligence are enough, but this status is lower, and the talented people in the prince's mansion are all the daughters of the five-grade officials." ”
Qin Zhiyan shook his head, with a hint of arrogance on his face, and said: "Erchen is the child of his father, and he is the Jiawang of Daqi, how many people in the world can compare their identities to Erchen?" If you really have to rely on your identity to choose a concubine, who is the most expensive son of a famous courtier? Erchen is already very noble, and she doesn't need her to add icing on the cake. Erchen also wants to do more practical things for his father, and he doesn't want to put some annoying nobles in the backyard. Moreover, that Miss Ye family is the most beautiful woman Erchen has ever seen, and Erchen likes it very much. ”
Emperor Qitai's face changed, and when Qin Zhiyan finished speaking, he raised his hand and threw a tribute Zihao pen at him, and scolded with a smile: "I don't know, you actually have a subcolored ghost flower intestine!" ”
Qin Zhiyan grabbed the pen thrown by Emperor Qitai, and he didn't panic, and said with a smile: "My fair lady, a gentleman is good, and his son is also a gentleman." ”
Emperor Qitai pointed at Qin Zhiyan with a smile, "If it is heard by the Taifu, I will not be allowed to participate in you!" ”
"Then don't let him know."
"Get out, get out!"
Qin Zhiyan didn't move.
Emperor Qitai looked at him.
Qin Zhiyan touched his nose, revealing a childlike spirit that can only be seen between father and son, "Yixin's father died to save me, although my father has already compensated, but my son still feels guilty in his heart, father, please give me a marriage, my son is willing to marry Yi Xin as a concubine." ”
Emperor Qitai raised his eyebrows, and his voice couldn't hear anything else.
"What about Miss Ye just now?"
Qin Zhiyan said casually: "Let's accept her as a side concubine." ”
Emperor Qitai didn't say whether he agreed or disagreed, but just closed his eyes slightly and waved his hand at Qin Zhiyan.
Qin Zhiyan respectfully withdrew.
When he turned around and walked out of the imperial study, Qin Zhiyan's eyes still had the arrogance and arrogance in front of Emperor Qitai, and there was only a deep invisible indifference.
Emperor Qitai turned his jade wrench, looked at the fold in front of him, and ordered without raising his head, "Go and check." ”
In this way, three days later, today, two holy decrees came from the palace, one was handed to the county lord of Yixin, and the other was handed to Ye Gantang.
One person is a concubine.
One is a side concubine.
The process of marrying a concubine is cumbersome and formal, and it takes a long time, it takes half a year, but the side concubine is different, the side concubine is a concubine in the end, and all the processes are simple.
Ye Gantang will marry into the Jiawang Mansion in a month.
At this moment, the Ye family is busy with their feet not touching the ground.
No one thought that their Ye family would be able to produce a princess, even if it was a side princess, this was a pie from heaven for the entire Ye Mansion, which was amazing good news.
The Zhu family let go and asked the Qian family and the Fang family to make a pink wedding dress for Ye Gantang together, even if the Fang family was unwilling, they did not dare to disobey the Zhu family, especially now that Ye Jinghai has rekindled the raging father-daughter love.
Ye Gantang is already the most honorable person in Ye Mansion.
Ye Ling entered her mother's room in a hurry, and when she saw her mother embroidering a wedding dress for Ye Gantang, a touch of jealousy flashed in her eyes.
She sat down in front of Fang's side, "Mother, stop embroidering!" Why did she let you embroider? ”
Fang ignored Ye Lingyu, and then embroidered Luan Bird and Di Lian.
Ye Lingyu pursed his mouth and tugged Fang's hand, Fang's hand shook, the needle pierced into his hand, and blood beads rolled out, Fang's was afraid of smearing it on the wedding dress, so he hurriedly raised his hand.
Ye Lingyu saw that her mother was injured, and a trace of fear and weakness flashed in her eyes.
"Mother's ......"
"You're twelve years old, and you'll be thirteen at the end of the year, can you stabilize the point?" Fang put down the needle and thread in his hand and said angrily.
Ye Lingyu was also aggrieved.
Fang Shi looked at Ye Lingyu's pursed mouth and the flickering disbelief in his eyes, and felt a little headache.
"If you don't embroider for her, will you let everyone in the world know that your mother and I are not good to Ye Gantang, and then let everyone in the world come to poke the backbone of our mother? Make your father more partial to her, give her all the good things, so that you can't get anything? You're almost there, can you be more sensible? ”
Ye Lingyu felt aggrieved, thinking of the undisguised smile and pride on the faces of her grandmother and father during this time, thinking of the envy of her close friends for Ye Gantang and the different color when she looked at her.
All this should obviously be hers, she should be the treasure in the palm of her family, why did Ye Gantang, a motherless fox, climb on her head?
Ye Lingyu stuck to Fang's body, leaned into her ear, and asked in a low voice: "Mother, I don't want her to be a princess, can we ...... Mother!! What are you doing! Pain! ”
Before Ye Lingyu's words were finished, he was ruthlessly pinched by Fang's soft flesh on his waist, this time Fang's ruthless hand, and Ye Lingyu, who was pulling, screamed.
Fang's words were fierce, "Shut up! ”
The Fang family is the daughter of Huaiyang Zhizhou, and the Fang family is also a big family in the local area, and the Fang family naturally knows what can be done and what not to do.
When Ye Gantang was just the daughter of the Ye family, she wanted to grind her, so she grinded. is a stumbling block in marriage, and she played tricks when she went out to a banquet, as long as she was not discovered, no one could do anything about her.
However, Ye Gantang is now half a royal person, and he is no longer someone she can target casually.
Ye Lingyu wanted to make Ye Gantang make a mistake, he couldn't be this Princess Jia, and he didn't want Ye Gantang to step on his head from now on, which didn't seem to be a problem in Fang's opinion. However, the Fang clan was more calm than Ye Lingyu, Ye Gantang really did something wrong, he hit King Jia's face, it was the face of the royal family, and it would be the entire Ye Mansion that would be liquidated at that time.
Ye Lingyu himself couldn't eat and walked around.
Fang Shi rubbed the truth and fed it into Ye Lingyu's brain.
Ye Lingyu cried and threw herself into Fang's arms, "Do you just let that fox step on our heads?" ”
Fang touched Ye Lingyu's head, she was very distressed, she comforted: "Don't look at Ye Gantang marrying into the Jiawang Mansion, there is also a Princess Jia who was canonized with her, that is the real mistress of the Jiawang Mansion." The side concubine said it well, in the final analysis, she is just a concubine, and if she enters, she will also be tortured, you can watch it, her life will not be easy. ”
Ye Lingyu was silent.
She didn't agree with Fang's words, no matter how she was a concubine, it was also a royal concubine, a concubine of the prince, and she would be the wife of someone in the future, and where would she have the scenery of Ye Gantang.
But Ye Lingyu knew that even if she wanted to do something, her mother would not support her.
She could only watch Ye Gantang get married.
She's really, so unwillingly.
