What To Do if You're the Villain and the Heroine Likes You

Chapter 109 Subtext

In the afternoon, He Yuanhao had a meal, rested for a while, and prepared to enter the palace to meet the Queen Mother.

There is no private matter in the palace, even if the queen mother is no longer in power, marrying the eldest princess still has quite a lot of political influence.

Whether this influence is big or small.

Ordinary third- and fourth-rank officials, if the eldest princess is their daughter-in-law, it must mean that they will be wooed by the Meng family and choose to side with the Meng family.But He Yuanhao is different.The He family tree has deep roots, and he is a general. Almost all the generals are under the prime minister's command. Anyone with a discerning eye understands that an unfavorable eldest princess is not enough to sway He Yuanhao and replace the He family's 12 elite soldiers.

Although Nan Zhu was not favored, the He family was not under much pressure on the matter of marriage, but no matter how unfavored she was, she was also the legacy of the late emperor, the dignified and well-known eldest princess of Qi.

This is different from the average family.

In an ordinary family, even if the status of the two families is slightly different, when the elders meet each other, they have to observe etiquette and treat each other as equals, calling each other "in-laws".

But the Meng family is not an ordinary family, but the Daqi royal family.

He Yuanhao won Princess Nanzhu as his daughter-in-law. In theory, he was married to the royal family, and even considered seniority, he could become the emperor's uncle and the empress dowager's in-laws in one fell swoop.

But this is only in theory. In fact, even if the emperor's sister, the princess, is married as the daughter-in-law, the emperor is still the emperor, and the queen mother is still the queen mother.None of the courtiers' rites that should be done should be lacking.There will be no exceptions for marrying the eldest princess.

Take dressing as an example, even though He Yuanhao was going to talk about marriage, he had to honestly put on the official uniform that represented a courtier.

When Zhang Jingxian waited for him to put on his official uniform, He Yuanhao specifically instructed, "Be careful."

"Usually in the court, I don't see the master so careful."

"This time I'm going to meet the queen mother to discuss the little bastard's marriage. It's not such a simple matter as going to court."

Zhang Jingxian snorted and said: "Others go to the court, trembling with fear, like walking on thin ice, but the master just strolls in the courtyard, so leisurely."

He Yuanhao smiled and said: "You don't understand. If you want something in your heart, you will worry about gains and losses and be restless. Just like those courtiers who are uneasy about their positions. I don't have so many thoughts and thoughts, as long as I go to court , can drink a bowl of black-bone chicken soup and be satisfied."

Zhang Jingxian took care of the folds on He Yuanhao's official uniform, and said with a helpless smile, "Master just said 'don't mean anything', but he broke the precept and reminded me."

After undressing, He Yuanhao touched the smooth sleeves of his official uniform, and said with satisfaction, "I am not a monk, so I have no distracting thoughts. This Marquis does not seek wealth, but only the safety of the people. Let's go."

Mrs. Hou Fu sent Master Hou to get on the horse, but Master Hou rode twice, jumped off again, and ran towards Hou Mansion.

"Jingxian, lead the horse, I forgot something."

"Isn't the gift card already taken?"

"There are others."

other?

Zhang Jingxian didn't quite understand.

To enter the palace to ask for a marriage, what else do you need besides the gift card?
Take a knife?

impossible.The palace is not my home, how can I let him enter with a knife?

……

There are six courts, three belong to Han, and three belong to Meng. This is a delicate balance that the government and the people of Qi have tried their best to maintain since the separation of powers by the first emperor.

Even during the reign of the Empress Dowager, the Meng family held at least two copies.

After Princess Xiaoyue seized power, she has given both kindness and power, and has firmly held the Ministry of Punishment, the Ministry of Rites, and the Ministry of Industry in her hands.At this time, the Meng family gradually tended to overwhelm the prime minister in terms of the number of civil servants.

At this time, Meng Qingqian's bedroom was outside Changhe Palace.

Li Gongqin, father of Li Jin, Minister of Rites, Huang Qinghe, father of Huang Buren, Minister of Punishment, uncle Yang Zhezu, father of Yang Dong, Minister of Industry Yang Xingguang, these three second-rank officials on the side of the Meng family stood together as the "boss" Xiaoyue Outside the door of the eldest princess.

Huang Qinghe came early, stood around for a while, but was not summoned by the eldest princess, so he asked about Li Gongqin who had just arrived. "Brother Li, Your Highness suddenly came to us today, do you have any clues?"

(Subtext: Boss suddenly shakes people, buddies are a little panicked, you are the boss's cousin, you should show them all.)
Li Gongqin came all the way, sweating profusely from running, and said: "Huang Shangshu, how can I guess His Highness's heart?"

(Subtext: I can't reach it!)

Even though the three of them are Meng's confidantes, they don't often get together. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Yang Xingguang said: "Brother Li, Brother Huang, Your Highness will be [-] soon. Although [-] is a coming-of-age ceremony, not a birthday, no As for the wanton handling, but we can't help but think about it, and lose His Highness's face. I wonder if the two of you are prepared?"

(Subtext: Boss celebrates his birthday, have you decided on a gift yet?)
Li Gongqin said: "Your Highness doesn't like vulgar things. In this troubled season, it is a great gift to have fewer troubles."

(Subtext: Tell Yang Zhe not to be a monster, my cousin looks down on him.)
Huang Qinghe said: "What brother Li said is very true."

(Subtext: Me too.)
Yang Xingguang cupped his hands and smiled. Although he saluted, he didn't thank the two of them. He turned to Changhe Palace and remained silent.

(Subtext: wait and see.)
After a while, the maid led the three of them into the palace.

Meng Qingqian was wearing a dark red dress as usual, leaning on the seat beside the tea table.The memorial never left his hand for a moment.

Jian Ling didn't stand not far from Meng Qingqian like when Li came in, but stood behind her, closed his eyes and hugged his sword, without saying a word.

The three ministers entered the hall and immediately knelt down.

"I will pay my respects to Your Highness."

Meng Qingqian said: "Get up."

She glanced at the memorial for the last time, threw it on the table, then got up from the chair, dragged her long skirt that touched the ground, and under the watchful eyes of the three second-rank officials and court officials, she came to the side behind them, came to When they enter the house, they don't pay attention to the location.

The three ministers, from the moment they entered the room, did not dare to look at the eldest princess.Most of the time, only the hem of the red dress appeared in their field of vision.

At this moment, the eldest princess walked up behind them abruptly, and they only dared to take a look out of the corner of their eyes, their bodies were still facing the direction of the original seat of the eldest princess, and they dared not move.

Until Meng Qingqian's clear voice sounded.

"Three Shangshu lords, I have a happy event to tell you today."

The three of them dared to turn to face her when they heard Meng Qingqian's words, and said, "I wait to congratulate Your Highness."

At this moment, they found that, apart from Meng Qingqian's long skirt, there was another official uniform in sight.

Meng Qing said with a slight smile: "There's no need to congratulate, just look up and meet old friends."

The three raised their heads, and suddenly found that there was a minister wearing a third-rank official uniform standing beside Meng Qingqian.

Luliang, Minister of Honglu Temple!

Isn't Luliang from Han Wenxin's side?how he...

Meng Qingqian stretched out her slender hand and patted Lu Liang's shoulder lightly.

"Master Lu has always been my courtier, and his vision, ability, and talent are all first-class. From now on, you are all friends, so you don't have to worry too much, and you can move around from time to time."

Lu Liang's waist bent more and more with the slapping of Meng Qingqian's palm. He waited for the eldest princess to finish speaking before he cupped his hands with the three ministers and said, "My lords, we will be friends from now on. I would like to be with you, To serve His Highness."

The three of them are all members of the imperial court, how can they not know what the defection of Lu Liang, the prime minister's confidant, means.

Li Gongqin said: "Congratulations, Your Highness."

Huang Buren said: "Your Highness is wise."

Yang Xingguang said: "I, Yang Zhe and other members of the Yang clan will swear to follow His Highness to the death and serve the country!"
