Cheng Yuanjing was very helpless when he heard the emperor's words. They both know what is going on. Now Cheng Yuanjing is standing in front of the emperor. The emperor looks like an old father. He says, "I don't know if the prince is married." who can I tell you?
Is it not clear to the emperor whether he is married or not?
Cheng Yuanjing didn't want to talk at all. He didn't even bother to lift his eyelids and quietly looked at the pattern on the seat. At this time, Cheng Yuanjing felt that Cheng Yujin turned her head and looked at him quietly. Her eyes seemed to be watching and joking.
Cheng Yuanjing looks at her impolitely. Cheng Yujin doesn't expect that she is caught laughing secretly. She immediately restrains her smile and looks like a dignified and model girl. It seems that nothing happened and she turns her head silently.
Cheng Jing is getting worse. No one will be in a good mood if they are urged to marry face to face or around the corner. What's particularly irritating is that Cheng Yujin has no idea, and she even has the heart to watch the excitement.
Cheng Yuanjing's face became colder and colder.
No one dares to answer the emperor's words. The disappearance of the crown prince is well known in the whole dynasty. Over the years, I don't know whether he is alive or dead. As the second prince grows older, Empress Dowager Yang and Yang Shoufu make it clear that they like the second prince. If the prince is really alive, what should he do if he still leaves his children among the people?
Huo Changyuan is also afraid of getting angry. He only dares to listen and not answer. In fact, the Emperor didn't plan to let them pick up. He didn't say this to Huo Changyuan. After the emperor pretended to sigh, he went to see Cheng Yuanjing's reaction, and found that his eldest son was still cold and indifferent, as if the person in the emperor's voice was not him at all.
The emperor was a little disappointed. But then he thought, happiness and anger are not in the form of color, calm and indifferent, this is the style of a country's Prince. In this regard, Li Chengjing is undoubtedly very good.
In contrast, it is not so important that the eldest is still unmarried and there is no sign that the emperor will have a grandson. Moreover, although the emperor is anxious, if Cheng Yuanjing really wants to get a wife, the emperor is bound to have a good exploration of the woman.
How can the future Princess be careless.
However, the fact is that the elder Cheng Yuanjing is not married yet. It is the emperor's fault. Because of the dispute over the queen, it was very late when Emperor Zhong was born to Cheng Yuanjing. The emperor had his eldest son at the age of 23. When the emperor had no children, he was worried about a group of ministers. Now, Cheng Yuanjing is even later. He is 20 years old and has no sign of getting married.
The emperor sighed in his heart. Fortunately, Cheng Yuanjing was going to make it public soon. When the East Palace was arranged next year, it was time to put the wedding of the crown princess on the agenda.
The following people don't know the Kung Fu of the words. The emperor has already figured out the right candidate for the crown princess in Beijing. After thinking about it for a while, the emperor found that he didn't care much about the younger generation these years. He didn't know which family in the capital had girls of the right age.
The emperor saw Huo Changyuan in his eyes. Like many middle-aged men, he was curious about young people's private affairs. The emperor asked Huo Changyuan, "you said that you have been married for three months. Which woman is that?"
In fact, the emperor's mind is very simple. He knows how Huo Changyuan and his wife met in advance. He can also use it as a reference to choose a wife for Li Chengjing.
Huo Changyuan was flattered to hear that. Today, he said more to the Emperor than he had said in the past 20 years. Moreover, when the emperor inquired about military affairs, he expressed his trust, and asked about family affairs such as Chenghou and getting a wife, he showed his closeness.
What a glory! Huo Changyuan repressed surprise, said: "zhuojing is the daughter of Cheng family in Yichun Marquis's mansion. I have the grace of saving my life. When I get back to the mansion, I will hire him as my wife."
Oh, the emperor is in trouble. It's too difficult and there's no reference. The emperor was disgusted by the Qing Xuanguan incident. He didn't want Li Chengjing to encounter any more danger, so that he lost the news and relied on the people to help him.
The emperor nodded, and his mind of continuing to ask was weak. His eyes scan Yu Jin, this just understand why these four people stand together. It turns out that the Huo family and the Cheng family are in laws. Li Chengjing's surname is Cheng, so it's not abrupt to appear here. Li Chengjing arranged it properly by using a newly married couple to cover up.
The emperor thought that something was wrong. Just now, the woman said that she was Cheng's parent's daughter. She didn't look married. Which daughter of the Cheng family did Huo Changyuan marry? Did you marry an aunt?
Curious, the emperor asked again, "are you married to the daughter of the Marquis of Yichun? Does the Marquis of Yichun have a daughter of the right age? "
Now, the filial piety period of Lord Cheng has not passed, and Cheng Yuanxian has not yet accepted the title. The Duke of Yichun is still Lord Cheng. Huo Changyuan was very embarrassed when he heard the emperor's misunderstanding, so he could only explain for Cheng Yumo: "to the emperor, zhuojing is the second granddaughter of the old Marquis, not his aunt. Miss Cheng is the elder sister of the zhuojing family. They are twins. When she was young, her wife and elder sister were adopted to Princess Qingfu of Dafang. "
The emperor knew clearly that the two women were sisters. He said that the Marquis of Yichun was seventy-eight years old. How could he give birth to a daughter of fifteen or sixteen years old. The emperor looked at Cheng Yujin and Cheng Yumo and asked strangely, "you are twins. Why don't you look like twins?"As like as two peas. Cheng Yujin is very tired. She has answered this question countless times since she grew up. Once every lady who is a guest knows that they are twins, she always asks similar questions.
"Are you a sister or a sister? Why do you two look different? "
not all twins as like as two peas in the sky. Cheng Yujin quietly sighed and replied, "Your Majesty, I and ER Mei are not very much alike. These years have always been like this."
Seeing that the emperor was still curious, Cheng Yuanjing added: "the two of them share the same truth with the twins, just a pair of sisters."
Cheng Yuanjing said that, and the emperor understood immediately. The emperor tut tut marveled that twins are rare in nature, and twins who are not alike are even more rare. You know, the twins have always been auspicious. Although they are sisters, there is not much difference in essence.
The Emperor didn't ask why the twin sister didn't get married. Instead, Huo Changyuan married his sister first. The Emperor didn't care about these little things. The emperor asked excitedly, "Huo Changyuan, your wife is twins. Isn't it easy to have twins in the future?"
Cheng Yumo is extremely embarrassed to hear this question. For a woman, it's not a blessing, it's a bright pressure. Everyone is looking forward to her giving birth to twin sons?
Even Cheng Yujin lowered her head and refused to speak easily. Huo Changyuan is also very difficult, the emperor spoke, he did not dare not answer, but, the issue of heirs who can guarantee?
Huo Changyuan didn't know what to say. Cheng Yuanjing stood aside and couldn't bear to hear it. The more the emperor asked, the more boundless he was. Cheng Yuanjing's tone was light and interrupted: "Your Majesty, madam Jingyong has just come out of the cabinet. She is thin skinned. It's not good to ask these questions."
Cheng Yuanjing's voice implied a warning, indicating that the emperor was almost done. Huo Changyuan hears it and stares at Cheng Yuanjing in surprise.
Is Cheng Yuanjing crazy and dare to speak to the emperor like this?
Huo Changyuan is going to plead for Cheng Yuanjing to make up for it, but when he sees the emperor smile, he takes it with him and does not pursue it. Huo Changyuan was even more surprised that the holy one was the supreme one. How could he speak so kindly?
Cheng Yujin's heart is clear, and she understands Huo Changyuan's mood at the moment. Of course, the emperor would not be so kind. He was not angry when he was interrupted, but it was his son who interrupted him. I'm afraid it may not be possible for another person to stand well now.
The emperor saw that the time was almost right. He stood up and said to them, "you young people, go on touring the garden. I'm here. You can't let go. It's true that young people want to serve their country, but they can't fall behind in starting a family before starting a career. "
Cheng Yuan Jing gently a Shen, this words say to who listen to, clearly.
After beating his eldest son with cover up, the emperor left with a lot of servants and relaxed, like a heavy rain. After the emperor left, there were several people left who wanted to visit the garden. Huo Changyuan told Cheng Yumo in a hurry that he was going to go outside.
When the emperor went up to the veranda and looked back, he saw the four men walking down the steps, opposite each other. Huo Changyuan and his newly married wife are standing together, while the opposite is his eldest son and the eldest daughter of the Cheng family.
After a few years' absence, Li Chengjing has grown taller and taller, more and more like the prince that everyone expects. He said goodbye, and the beautiful eldest granddaughter of the Cheng family followed him, even more than the real couple opposite.
"Long live?"
The eunuch gave a gentle call, and the emperor regained his mind. He soon lost sight.
On the other hand, Cheng Yujin and Cheng Yuanjing also bid farewell to Huo Changyuan and his wife. Face saint is not a small matter, Huo Changyuan has a lot of things to discuss with his confidants, he has no time to delay, quickly said: "honeysuckle, you escort your wife and Miss Cheng back, see mother instead of me say hello."
The little guy called honeysuckle answers, but Cheng Yuanjing says calmly: "Jingyong Marquis just needs to take care of his wife. I'll send the big girl back."
Huo Changyuan was stunned for a moment: "there are many people inside, and there are many important things before the imperial court. It's just right to let their sisters go together."
"I know." Cheng Yuanjing nodded, "there are so many people inside, I have to send her personally."
What Cheng Yuanjing said is light, but the meaning is irrefutable. Huo Changyuan looked at Cheng Yuanjing several eyes, and finally nothing said: "good."
Cheng Yumo saw Cheng Yuanjing accompany Cheng Yujin to go back, eyes have envy: "nine uncle really careful, also personally send big sister."
Huo Changyuan scorned it and sniffed: "the man is upright. How many important things are waiting outside? How can he waste such spare time with his wife? When I saw Cheng Yuanjing in an important position when he was young, I thought he was a man with a big mind. I didn't expect that he would be a big weapon in the future if he stayed in his house like Xu Zhixian. "
Cheng Yu said, "it's the one who looks down in his eyes. I don't know the way. How can I delay your time? Let's get down to business. "
Cheng Yujin walked for a while. Seeing that there was no one on both sides, she whispered to Cheng Yuanjing, "Uncle Jiu, I know the rest of the way. There are still people waiting outside. You don't have to send them.""No harm." Cheng Yuanjing said, "when they wait, they also wait. Today Xiangji temple is full of good and bad people. There are all kinds of people on the road. I saw you go in and go back with my own eyes."
Cheng Yujin knew that he was not able to deal with Yuan Jing, so she stopped talking about it. Although the last time she went shopping, the person who accompanied her now was very cold. The Grand Prince is much easier to get along with than those half hung princes.
Cheng Yuanjing walked for a while. Seeing that Cheng Yujin didn't speak, she looked at her face and said with a smile, "what's the matter, what are you thinking?"
Cheng Yujin, however, restrained her jest and looked at him seriously: "I'm thinking that uncle Jiu is reasonable, benevolent, solemn and self disciplined, and has been gentle and patient with old and weak women and children. In the future, you will be a very good prince."
Cheng Yuanjing's people have already cleared the surrounding area, but Cheng Yujin's words are not afraid to be heard. Cheng Yuanjing didn't expect that she would suddenly say such words, and her expression shook for a moment. Then he said, "how do you react? What do you want to do? "
Cheng Yujin is the best at telling people nice things. Cheng Yuanjing thinks that Cheng Yujin has something to ask for. Unexpectedly, Cheng Yujin still looks at him seriously. Her eyes are dark and bright: "this is what I mean. It's a blessing for us to have a prince like you. "
Cheng Yuanjing's mouth is tighter. Cheng Yujin never grudges the scene words, fortunately in front of him, Cheng Yujin no longer pretends, rarely can have some real temperament to reveal. For the first time, she praised him directly.
And it's not the usual garish and flashy official rhetoric in officialdom. She said these words very seriously. No one does not like to be praised, especially in front of the woman.
Cheng Yuanjing glanced at her with her face and said, "have a good look at the road." But the corners of his eyes and brows softened obviously.
As if his years of forbearance to pay, those late at night no one can see the hardships, have a meaning.
No wonder, he thought, that there are always women around any successful man. Who can stand such soft words and such gentle and adoring eyes.
