Chapter 772, Signal
The scandal between Jiang Wanying and the prince of Xiliao has added a widely discussed discussion to the Queen Mother’s birthday.
Even if everyone is afraid of the Queen Mother and the Jiang family's power, they will not stay in private. There are different opinions.
With such a taint, the situation of Jiang’s family with a hundred girls seeking for women is completely history.
Cining Palace.
The queen mother looked at Jiang Wanying, who was on her knees and sobbing, with an indifferent expression: "Go back and prepare for it. Get ready to kiss Xiliao."
"No, I don't want it." Jiang Wanying looked at the Queen Mother in horror.
Ms. Jiang Er quickly knelt down and kowtow: "The Queen Mother, Xiliao is remote and barren, and Wanying has been weak since she was a child. How can she stand it? I beg the Queen Mother to take her back and die."
The queen mother no longer wanted to talk to Mrs. Jiang's mother and daughter at this moment, waved her hand, and signaled Mrs. Jiang to take the person away.
After waiting for the others to leave, the queen mother smashed a cup with a gloomy face.
Cheng En Gong: "Queen dowager, things are already like this. Wanying Wanying is in the blood of the Jiang family. I also ask the queen dowager to take pity for her, so that she will not be too sad after marrying Xiliao."
The queen mother calmed down her anger before she spoke: "Xiliao came here to ask for a princess. What Aijia can do is to fight for the identity of a princess for Wanying."
Speaking, looked at Cheng En Gong and Jiang Shizi.
"Okay, you guys go back too, be optimistic about the mother and daughter, don't let them do anything stupid."
Jiang Wanying is so stupid that she can deliver it to her door. The person who can directly do ugly things in front of everyone is her own daughter. She no longer wants to mention the mother and daughter.
Just when everyone thought Jiang Wanying would be with Xiliao, the emperor did not respond for a long time.
The prince of Xiliao was obedient, knowing that he could not marry the true princess, Yelu Qianhua lost to the county lord of Shengping in the ring, and could not marry Xiao Yeyang, the son of a prince of Xiao Yeyang, someone he didn’t want. , The princes will naturally not marry.
In this case, he can only retreat and take the initiative to fulfill his marriage with Jiang Wanying.
The Jiang family is the first family of the Great Xia family, and the daughter of the Jiang family is also inferior to the princess in terms of status. Other aspects are not much different.
He asked to marry because of the friendship between the two countries. The queen mother and the queen who wanted to come to the palace would ask for a princess status for Jiang Wanying, who was upset with him that night.
However, reality slapped him severely.
The prince of Xiliao asked to see the emperor several times, but was unceremoniously turned away.
As a result, everyone talked about Jiang Wanying and the prince of Xiliao.
The Yan family is also paying close attention to this matter. The Jiang family is so daring to frame Daohua in the palace. Naturally, the Yan family hopes that the Jiang family will be unlucky.
"Girl, Prince Ping's Mansion has sent a few pots of top-quality peony and peonies, saying they are for the girl to use to relieve boredom and enjoy fun." Bi Shi led several maids to Daohua, one of the maids held a pot of blooming flowers in their hands. Flowers.
Daohua motioned to the maid to put the peony on the stone table, lowered her head and sniffed the fragrance of the flower, and then smiled and asked, "This time it was from Wyan?"
Bishi nodded: "Wine said that he almost killed the girl that night, and the prince and he were very guilty. Wine also said that the prince has spoken, as long as you like it, you can move the flowers from Prince Ping's Mansion."
Daohua smiled and said, "Go and tell Wyen, since the prince is so generous, it's not easy for me to be a junior. I just wanted to build a flower room in Pingxitang, so I used the flowers that the prince planted to decorate it."
Bishi laughed immediately after hearing this: "Wine will look very wonderful when he hears it." As he said, he ran to spread the word briskly.
Ping Prince's Mansion.
Princess Ma and Xiao Yechen looked at the artisans in the east courtyard who came to the garden to transplant flowers from time to time, and their expressions changed a little.
No one knows better than them how much Prince Ping loves these flowers and plants. Usually, even if they break a plant, they will be reprimanded. Now, Prince Ping is willing to use these beloved flowers and plants to decorate the East which is still under construction. hospital.
Because the boundary to the east of the palace was assigned to Xiao Yeyang to build a new house, the people in the palace simply called it the east courtyard.
"Chen'er, you have to think of a way. Now that Yan's daughter hasn't entered the door, your father is like that. Then you have to wait for her to enter. Wouldn't your father's heart return to Xiao Yeyang? Go? If that happens, this palace will not have a foothold for our mother and son."
Princess Ma said anxiously.
Xiao Yechen's face was calm, calming Princess Ma: "Mother and concubine, don't worry, the queen mother and the Jiang family have suffered such a big loss this time, and they won't let Shengping County Lord pass."
The pity of Princess Ma's face: "Why isn't the person in the Chonghua Hall that night her Yan Yiyi?"
"Mother Concubine!"
Xiao Yechen quickly stopped Princess Ma: "Mother concubine, even if you don’t like Xiao Yeyang and Yan’s daughter in your heart, don’t talk about things that father and king don’t like in the future."
The Queen Ma glanced at Xiao Yechen slantingly: "I don’t know if the mother concubine, don’t worry, how to get along with the father and the queen, the concubine knows better than you."
Princess Ma, mother and son are discussing, and the subordinates in the palace are also undercurrents.
"The prince is usually reluctant to give a flower, but now it is used to decorate the east courtyard, which shows how much the prince attaches importance to the little prince."
"Hey, the days of the princess and the eldest son being alone are coming to an end."
"Originally, the little prince is the wife and son, even if the princess is righted, it is also the successor."
Princess Ma and her son didn’t know that they had been wooing the servants of the palace for more than ten years. Because of this transplanting of the flowers in the Hundred Gardens, they unknowingly turned to the east courtyard.
Cining Palace, the queen mother originally planned to slowly increase Jiang Wanying's worth. After all, it is not easy for Daxia to start a war with Xiliao, and the emperor also hopes to have good relations with Xiliao.
The easiest and most convenient way to make good relations between the two countries is through marriage.
The emperor did not want to marry his daughter, so Wanying just replaced him.
In this case, it should be the emperor begging Jiang's family.
However, it has been several days since the birthday, but the emperor did not respond at all, which made the Queen Mother feel a little confused.
The emperor took the initiative to speak, then, the daughter of the Jiang family went to Xiliao for Da Xia, and that was worthy of Da Xia.
But if she speaks first, the meaning will be different immediately.
Waiting for another two days, seeing that the Xiliao delegation was already discussing the matter of returning to China, the queen mother could no longer sit still.
The matter between Wanying and the prince of Xiliao was seen by everyone. Only if she married to Xiliao, it was the most beneficial thing for the Jiang family.
Qianqing Palace.
The emperor was discussing business matters with Yang Chenghua and others, but An Gonggong hurriedly walked in, lowered his head and said, "The emperor, the queen mother is here."
After hearing this, Yang Chenghua and other officials couldn't help but glance at the emperor, and then silently stood silently.
The emperor glanced at Mr. An, and continued to discuss the matter casually.
A few officials did not dare to let the queen mother wait long, but the emperor wanted to drag them to discuss matters, and they could only bite the bullet and deal with it.
Until the matter was discussed, the emperor waved his hand to signal everyone to leave.
Yang Chenghua and others breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the sweat from their foreheads, quickly exited the hall, and shook a glance at the queen mother who was sitting in the side hall drinking tea and waiting before going out.
Seeing this, several people looked at each other silently, and then left quickly.
The emperor deliberately hangs the queen mother, which has never happened before.
It can be seen that the scandal of the Jiang family and the prince of Xiliao sitting in the harem really gave the emperor an atmosphere.
"I am busy with official duties, and I have kept the queen mother waiting for a long time."
The emperor smiled and walked into the side hall, and calmly sat down opposite the queen mother.
The queen mother glanced at the emperor, suppressed the anger in her heart, put down the tea cup in her hand, and looked at the emperor with a smile: "The emperor has everything to do with everything, and it’s okay to wait for the emperor’s family. By the way, the emperor’s family is here, did you disturb the emperor? "
The emperor smiled and said: "Whatever the queen mother said, you should find me. Even if I have a hundred thousand urgent things, I have to let it go and see you, right?"
The queen mother tried her best to restrain her, and her face did not show the unhappiness of half distraction.
The emperor held up the tea: "How does the Queen Mother feel about this tea?"
The Queen Mother reluctantly smiled: "The things the emperor uses are naturally the best."
The emperor smiled and talked to the queen mother about the daily routine, but didn't take the initiative to ask the queen mother what to do. Seeing the queen mother tried to endure it, his heart was relieved and happy.
At the beginning, when he first took the throne, he had to ask the Queen Mother and Cheng Engong for his opinions on all matters of military and political affairs. Now he has returned, but it is only a drop in the bucket.
The queen mother knew that the emperor was waiting for her to speak, thinking of Jiang’s family, thinking of Jiang Wanying, took a deep breath, or chose to compromise: "Wanying and the prince of Xiliao, what is the emperor going to do?"
The emperor looked surprised: "Jiang Wanying is the daughter of the Jiang family. About her and the prince of Xiliao, the queen mother should ask about the Jiang family. Why did you ask me?"
Hearing this, the queen mother could no longer maintain the calmness on her face, and asked in a questioning tone: "What does the emperor mean? You are not going to take care of Wanying and the prince of Xiliao?"
The smile on the emperor's face narrowed a little: "Queen dowager, your question is really unreasonable. Jiang Wanying and the prince of Xiliao committed an ugly thing in the palace. I did not make a decree to punish. It is enough for you and the emperor. "
said, looking at the Queen Mother.
“The queen mother came to question me, obviously she didn’t think Jiang Wanying had done something wrong. Could it be that the queen mother felt that the palace is the back garden of Jiang’s family, so let the Jiang family want to do whatever they want?”
The queen mother's breathing was stagnant: "Is the emperor's words too serious?"
The emperor sneered: "Is it serious? I can't see it, otherwise, there would be no such scandalous thing in the Chonghua Hall."
The queen mother stared at the emperor, silent for a moment, and said: "Xiliao came to establish friendship between the two countries this time. I think the emperor is unwilling to marry Lekang to Xiliao, so that Wanying will stand up. Isn't this the best of both worlds?"
The emperor smiled and shook his head: "The friendship between the two countries does not require peace. I never planned to marry a princess."
"The emperor!"
The queen mother suddenly raised her voice: "Wanying marries Xiliao, how can this be a good thing for Daxia, and ask the emperor to consider her meritorious deeds to Daxia, and call her a princess."
The smile on the emperor's face was completely gone: "Queen dowager, there are some things I don't want to say too bluntly, but why do you force me to say it? I tell you now clearly that I will not make Jiang's daughter a princess. "
"Jiang Wanying married to Xiliao because she committed a scandal herself. For Da Xia, she did not have the slightest credit. On the contrary, I still feel that she has lost the face of Da Xia."
The Queen Mother stood up ‘huh’: "The emperor, do you have to be so ruthless?"
The emperor looked lightly: "Queen dowager, do you still remember your identity? You are Daxia's empress dowager, but you let the prince of Xiliao do something to do in the harem. It is you who lost your identity first."
Speaking, the emperor also stood up and looked out the window with his hands on his back.
"What happened that night, I have completely investigated it, Queen Mother, for your own personal interests, have you and Jiang family thought about the face of the Daxia royal family?"
The queen mother was stunned, and then sneered again: "The emperor is really true." Halfway through the words, she tossed her sleeves and left with an unbearable atmosphere.
Looking at the back of the Queen Mother, the emperor tickled the corner of his mouth.
Not bad, this time I removed some of the eyeliner that Jiang'an had inserted in the palace.
Everyone waited until the West Liao delegation left Beijing, and they could not wait until the emperor’s decree canonized Jiang Wanying as a princess and pro-Xiliao’s imperial decree. Only the Queen Mother issued a decree and bestowed Jiang Wanying on the prince of Xiliao.
So, when the prince of Xiliao came to Beijing this time, he took away a county owner from Daxia.
Although Jiang Wanying had a generous dowry, the prince of Xiliao didn't have a smile on his face. He could already imagine how other brothers would laugh at him when he returned to Xiliao, knowing that he had only married back to one county head.
Especially, the hundreds of good horses brought this time were stolen silently without even a little splash, without any benefit in exchange.
This trip to Daxia was nothing.
At the same time, through the emperor’s failure to confer Jiang Wanying on Jiang Wanying, some scheming and noble officials clearly saw some signs that the emperor’s reluctance to endure the Jiang family has become clear.
