"How can it be settled so soon?" In Weiyang palace, empress Qiu was very upset. She took a letter from Wen Zhiqi and sighed, "I'm going to invite Mrs. Wei into the palace again in two days to see if I have a chance to mention this..."
After returning to the capital of the emperor, Wei Changying and his wife asked each of them to meet the new emperor and the new empress on the same day.
However, empress Qiu summoned Wei Changying just before yesterday. With the empress's honor, she expressed her gratitude for raising her children at that time. In addition, Wen Yulan, who was granted the title of Princess Xian'an, saluted her in person. The atmosphere can be said to be harmonious.
According to the idea of empress Qiu, this first meeting mentioned that the marriage of the younger generation seemed to be a little too urgent. We had to meet again or twice.
But when she turned around, she knew that there were many relatives proposed by Shen Shuyan. The queen decided to try to find out about Wei Changying when she met him for the second time. She thought it would be quick. Fortunately, she was a man at home, and it would not be disgraceful to say it. But who could have thought that she had not met Wei Changying for the second time? Shen Shuyan had a master!
Seeing that empress Qiu was so sad, sun Mo, who had been in the palace as a servant in the Wei Dynasty and was promoted to be the general manager of the Weiyang Palace by her appreciation, carefully owed his body and said, "don't worry, madam. In fact, Miss Shen Si is excellent, but it's also because she is the daughter of Shen family. The great prince has a noble status. Why worry about no lady match? "
Sun Mo was very nervous when he said this. In fact, what he said was to remind empress Qiu that Shen Shuyan was the legitimate daughter of the Shen family in Xiliang. The empress was born as a village woman. Like the former Zhong Jie, she thought that the gentry were noble again, and they were ministers in the end. When the former Wei Dynasty was going to die, how many of the empresses and concubines were not born into famous families?
Now, in the reign of the great Yong Dynasty, when the emperor wanted to marry a daughter of the imperial court, he didn't mention the matter of marriage?
At the most, it's just a matter of courtesy. Let's focus on the wedding!
However, I didn't notice that the concubines in the six palaces of the new emperor, who are closely related to the gentry, are not Kabuki people who are strictly taught by their sons. The noblest is the righteous daughter - even if there are one or two of them, in fact, they are all private daughters who are not recognized by the family.
None of the women of the gentry, even those from distant families, entered the palace as concubines.
Wen's family, with a shallow background, even if he was an emperor, still could not be recognized by the gentry and was shy of getting married.
Empress Chou didn't know this, but Sun Mo, who served Wei in the palace, knew it.
The problem is that he dare not say it too carefully - Empress Chou has four sons and one daughter, and now the only one alive is this son and one daughter. From the Queen's usual attitude of mentioning her own children, she attached great importance to her son. She wanted to know that the Shen family despised Wen Zhiqi, and never considered marrying Shen Shuyan to Wen Zhiqi. God knows what she would do?
Sun Mo can't afford to offend the queen, but he doesn't dare to offend the Shen family.
As expected, empress Qiu didn't hear the meaning of his words and sighed: "but Qi'er specially wrote to mention the fourth Miss Shen. It can be seen that he likes the fourth Miss Shen!" Wen Zhiqi is now at the age of matchmaking. Wen Yazi doesn't think much of his son - but he is the prince anyway.
Of course, empress Qiu wants to give her son a good choice, because the first three sons are gone, and the concubine has murdered the first three sons. The empress feels sorry for him, and she is determined to find him a wife who is in love with each other, so she writes to ask him what she likes. Then she hears that AI in Qi period mentions Shen Shuyan.
As a matter of fact, Wen Zhiqi knows the gap between different families, but because of his special identity, no matter the Shen family and the Wei family, no one will tell him: "in fact, our scholars despise you as a new rich man of rural origin, even if your father became an emperor! In our eyes, you are just a bunch of buns. " Like that.
Therefore, Wen Zhiqi, with a little knowledge, confided his heart to empress Qiu with a fluke.
And empress Chou thinks that Miss Shen's family, after being a big girl and a famous family, it's OK to give her son, now the eldest son of the emperor. She only said a comforting word to sun Mo, thought for a while, and sent other people to ask him in a low voice: "you said, it's just a letter. Did it spread That this is not possible? "
As soon as sun Mo heard this, he cried out to be bad. But now the queen asked alone and had to answer, so she had to brag and say, "I'm afraid it's not possible to go back to my mother's words, isn't it? After all, it's Mrs. Wei's brother, Mr. Wei Wu of Ruiyu hall, who says this outside! What Miss Shen Si promised was the eldest son of Prince Wei Wu's cousin Such a person's voice is sure to be heard. "
Empress Qiu was disappointed. Looking at him, she frowned slightly and said, "really there is no way?"
“…… You are incompetent! " At this time, it was still cold, but Sun Mo felt sweaty. He said with difficulty, "or can the lady ask the meaning of the holy master?"
He didn't dare to tell empress Qiu about the state of mind of the literati, and he didn't dare to let empress Qiu try to destroy Shen Wei's marriage according to her idea - he could only move out Wen Yazi.
When Queen Qiu heard the word "holy", she lowered her eyes to cover her mood and said lightly: "don't you know? I want to see the saint every day. I have to see her face! "
"You are serious, mother!" Sun Mo hurriedly advised and said, "it's also because Shan Guifei is pregnant that she often visits him. As far as I know, the saint is busy with the affairs of the court these days, and seldom goes back to the harem. Moreover, you are the empress of Zhonggong yuan. How can single princess compare with you? "“…… That's all. " Empress Qiu was silent for a moment, but she shook her head. She was disappointed to collect her son's letter and said, "go out first, let me be quiet."
Sun Mo couldn't help saying: "in fact, you should call yourself" our palace "as your mother
Empress Chou didn't care about his talkativeness and laughed at herself: "I can't change it for a while..."
"But they have changed their mouths. If you don't, I'm afraid..." Sun Mo's words are obvious. If he didn't have no foundation in the palace, he would have gained his present status only by the appreciation of Queen Qiu. In addition, Queen Qiu's generous treatment made him feel a little grateful. Based on his many years of experience in serving noble people, this kind of words would not be said fairly.
-- the queen also used the self-identity of the common people, but the concubines changed first. If empress Chou can hold back the scene, everyone will say that she is approachable and disrespectful. But empress Chou clearly does not have that momentum. In this case, she can only rely on honor, appellation and so on to support the majesty of a queen.
Especially in front of the concubines.
Now the middle palace is queen Qiu, but the single imperial concubine is unparalleled - in the past, she had to salute queen Qiu, but since the diagnosis of pregnancy, the ceremony has been saved. When empress Chou and she came together, they all seemed to be more like empresses.
It's just that I can't understand the meaning of Qi
For a moment, both the master and the servant were silent.
And under the rear window of the palace, pretending to pick up the flowers and plants, I overheard a little maid in the palace, who left Weiyang palace quietly while no one was paying attention.
After a while, the news has reached duanmuxinmiao's hand.
Duan Mu Miao is also there, very worried: "the new dynasty is built, you put the eye liner to the queen, in case of being discovered."
"I didn't do it on my own initiative. I had treated them several times earlier, and they were willing to repay this favor. How could it be so convenient in the future if we didn't take advantage of the new emperor's lack of time to accommodate the palace people?" Duanmuxinmiao said seriously, "and Shan is so strong in the palace. Do you really want to see the branch press our own head?"
Her voice was low. "Our sisters don't care, but sui'er Why is the worry brother reliable than the * *?
"It's just that the empress is obviously weak, and she may not be able to do anything about it." Duanmu WeiMiao used to be the crown princess. He had been carefully taught by the family in his early years about the battle between the palace and the palace. He shook his head slightly at the moment and said, "I still think it's too dangerous." She attaches great importance to her only son, but also her sister.
Last time duanmuxinmiao rushed to the severe epidemic for her nephew, she was already heartbroken. Now, for the sake of my nephew's future, Duanmu WeiMiao feels really sorry for her sister.
Duanmuxin Miaomiao smiled: "as long as I do things, elder sister, you don't think it's not dangerous. You have to do it all for me before you can rest assured. "
"But there are fewer and fewer places I can help you now." Duanmu sighed, "there are more and more places that drag you down."
"My sister still has to talk about procrastination. Elder sister, you hurt my heart by saying that." Duanmuxinmiao thought for a moment and stood up. "The emperor's eldest son even intended for the four young ladies of the Shen family. I think it's better to discuss this with sister-in-law three."
Her three sisters in law are naturally Wei Changying.
Duanmu WeiMiao agrees with this: "Mrs. Wei is the master mother of the Shen family now. She has a lot of people in her hands. Our sister is weak now. She can take care of her. That's right."
so the next afternoon, Duan Mu Miao went to the door in person, and told him in detail that he had a line of eye in front of the enemy queen. "According to the message from the little maid, the queen of the enemy seemed to have no idea that we could not give her son to her son."
"And she wants to break up the marriage?" Wei Changying is glad that he has received the keepsake of Wei Changxu. He also told Wei Changfeng to pass on the message. In this way, even if empress Chou really mentioned it, the Shen family had something to say back. Otherwise, even if they refused to marry, they would inevitably pay a heavy price on their eyes and bones. However, for Empress Chou's innocence, she also felt a little worried. "Shan Guifei now loves the sixth palace. I heard that she is from your rich family. I don't have to worry about you these days. I'm afraid she's under a lot of pressure."
Duanmuxinmiao said: "otherwise, I would not default those palace people to deliver messages to me. But you also know that our sisters have no hands. My elder sister has seen through these things for a long time. I'm not a material for intrigue. So just tell sister-in-law-3 what do you mean by seeing sister-in-law-3? "
Wei Changying smiled and said: "this is just right. I have two people here. I don't know how to arrange them. It's a ready opportunity for you to talk about the news today. "
