Dajin royal family

Chapter 494 Princess Xiaoliang

On the way to the queen's eldest grandson's bedroom, Xiao Xian finally couldn't hold back, and asked in a low voice: "Sister Yuchi, will the queen be angry if I go in dressed like this?"

After entering the mansion, from the queen dowager down to the maids and servants in the mansion, they all dressed very plainly, but she was the only one wearing a silk dress, which made her a little worried that the queen would not like her wearing extravagant clothes.

Yuchi Chifan smiled and said: "You don't have to worry, in fact, we all have a few good silk dresses, but the elder sister said that the world is not settled, we should keep everything simple, that's why we wear coarse linen skirts, waiting for you to settle down After you get down, we will make you some clothes."

Her sense of Xiao Xian was not bad, this woman did not rely on her identity as Princess Xiao Liang.But now she still dare not make a conclusion, she will have to get along with her for a while to know her temperament.

Hearing this, Xiao Xian was a little relieved, and thanked Yuchi Chifan again.

Entering the dormitory, the room is brightly lit and tidy, with a wooden couch standing in front of it, and two serving maids standing on both sides.

Sitting on the couch in front of her was a young young woman with a beautiful face, combed in a high bun, and a jasper hairpin stuck obliquely in her black hair.Although she was also wearing a fine linen dress, her calm demeanor gave her an irresistible grace and grace. No need to guess, Xiao Xian knew that she was the Queen's eldest grandson.

Xiao Xian immediately knelt down on both knees and saluted respectfully, "Mr. Xiao greets the queen."

Changsun Qingyi sized up Xiao Liang's number one beauty, and saw that she was tall and plump, with delicate and fair skin, and in her deep pool-like eyes, the eyeballs shone like jewels.There is a kind of dignity in its beauty.

"Please get up."

Xiao Xian got up slowly, Changsun Qingyi smiled and said: "The mansion is still used to it."

"Thank you Queen for your concern, I can adapt."

Changsun Qingyi probably has no objection to Xiao Xian's introduction, because it is related to her husband's plan.She cares more about whether Xiao Xian is a charming woman, if so, she will definitely not allow her to enter.

When I saw you today, my heart relaxed a little.

Then, it is the ceremony of "serving tea".

This is an etiquette that must be followed by concubines in the mansion.If the big woman does not accept the tea served by the concubine, it means that the big woman does not agree with the concubine's entry.

In this way, the concubine could only leave.In the future, the male master will either break up with the concubine, or buy a house outside to raise the concubine, commonly known as "other housewives".

Xiao Xian took the teacup from the servant girl's hand, walked up to Changsun Qingyi, knelt down slowly, and raised his hands to serve the tea.

It would be a lie to say that Changsun Qingyi has no fluctuations in her heart, no woman would like to see her husband take a concubine.

It goes without saying that Yuchi Chifan has a deep friendship with her husband.The Bai family followed her husband before she started her own career, and now she has an heir, and she keeps a low profile.Xiuyu was ordered by the Queen Mother, and her husband had no choice but to agree, and his wife Zheng was also because of the Queen Mother.

Thinking about it carefully, my husband seems to have restrained enough.

It's just that she also knows that her husband only has three sons, which is not enough.

When Changsun Qingyi was in a daze, Xiao Xian's heart was beating non-stop, and his eyes were sour. If the queen didn't take tea, then she might have a hard time in the palace from now on.

At this moment, Changsun Qingyi reached out to take the teacup.

The tip of Xiao Xian's nose was sour, and he bowed gracefully, "My concubine, thank you queen."

Eldest Sun Qingyi helped her up, and said kindly: "Don't be afraid, since I have received the tea, you are my younger sister, but there are some things I need to discuss with you in advance, lest you violate the taboo in the house."

"Sister, please tell me."

"Okay, the first thing is the king's study, no one is allowed to enter unless the king calls. The second thing is about clothes"

On the other side, Jiang Chengxiao summoned all the officials and officially announced that he would marry Princess Xiao Liang as his side concubine, and at the same time hosted a banquet for the ministers of the fourth rank and above in Taiyuan.

Regarding this matter, Pei Ju and the others saw it clearly.The reason why the king married Princess Xiaoliang was to join hands with Xiao Liang to deal with Yuwenshu and Nanchen.

It's just that the king kept this matter a secret, and Princess Xiaoliang announced it after she entered Taiyuan.

Although Zheng Shanyuan also knew this, he was still a little unbalanced in his heart. His granddaughter was the wife after entering the palace, and Princess Liang was actually a side concubine.

But he didn't dare to complain, because the king really had nothing to say about the Zheng family. Now that the eldest son, Zheng Renguo, was acting as an agent for the Ministry of Industry, as long as he waited for a good opportunity, he might not be able to push him to the post of Minister of the Ministry of Industry!
At the banquet, the cups were exchanged, and Xiao Liang's envoys led by Cen Zhenben were persuaded to drink continuously by the ministers of the Jin Dynasty, and they were fascinated.

Jiang Chengxiao knelt on the throne, watching the animals in Honglu Temple frantically persuading him to drink, he couldn't help showing a little smile on his face.

Among the nine temples, Honglu Temple is the one with the worst sense of existence. It is the institution that receives foreign envoys the most. They usually have nothing to do.Now it's so easy to seize the opportunity, if Cen Zhenben and others are not poured alcohol until their stomach bleeds, how can they show that they are capable of Honglu Temple?

What's more, because of Jiang Chengxiao's alcohol prohibition, many ministers did not dare to drink indiscriminately. This time, they were drinking in an open and aboveboard manner. Who wouldn't try their best to drink hard.

"Brother Pei, look over there." Holding the wine cup, Wang Hong moved to Pei Ju's side, looking at Zheng Shanyuan, who was a little sullen.

Pei Ju said indifferently: "Brother Zheng is very proud of himself now."

"Yes." Wang Hong said in an inexplicable tone: "There is a queen mother and a wife in the palace. Zheng Renguo is afraid that he will enter the Tiange soon and become the prime minister."

Pei Ju squinted his eyes. Unknowingly, it turned out that the Zheng family of Xingyang had already become so powerful in the Northern Jin Dynasty.

If the Central Plains are recovered in the future, wouldn't the Zheng family of Xingyang be even stronger?
Wang Hong continued: "Brother Pei doesn't know yet, the Queen Mother said that as soon as that Mrs. Zheng gives birth to an heir, she will be named a side concubine immediately."

Hearing this, Pei Ju's pupils shrank, and his palms could not help but slowly clenched.

Things seem to be a little bad.

Immediately, he said calmly: "Brother Wang, you forgot that now Zheng Ruyi is still the young minister of Dali Temple."

Hearing this, the two fell silent for a while.Immediately, they looked at each other, and everything was silent.

"Your Majesty has become somewhat dependent on the Zheng family. I heard that at the beginning of the year, your Majesty promoted a lot of Zheng's sons to be officials. It's not appropriate." Pei Ju said softly.

Wang Hong nodded, "Indeed."

Pei Ju quietly glanced at the young king on the throne, a king who was only 23 years old.

If he could have guessed what King Zhao was thinking before, but since King Zhao rejected the imperial edict and refused to ascend the throne, he has rarely been able to guess it.

Now that he is dealing with King Zhao, he can't help feeling frightened.Because of Li Chun's incident, he saw King Zhao's ruthlessness.A person he personally promoted was immediately demoted because of a small mistake.

If it were someone else, it would be far from being as simple as relegation.

Pei Ju was sizing up Jiang Chengxiao, and Jiang Chengxiao calmly cleaned Pei Ju, Wang Hong and Zheng Shanyuan who was on the other side.

Oh, interesting.

Picking up the wine cup, he took a sip, and then slowly stood up.

Seeing this, the ministers immediately fell silent.

"Dear dears, you may not know that the orphan's biological mother is actually Lord Liang's own younger sister. This time the two countries are married, and they will be closer together. You should drink a full glass and wish the Lord Liang in Jiangling far away well."

The ministers toasted at the same time and said in unison: "My king will last for ten thousand years, I wish the Lord Liang peace and happiness."

After the sound, the ministers were bored.

Cen Zhenben was really in a complicated mood. Although what he just said was good, it sounded uncomfortable.

Pei Ju lowered his head and smiled slightly. Although the king is young and mature, he is still complacent.

Wang Hong said with emotion: "I didn't expect the king and Xiao Tong to have such a relationship."

"What's so strange, the late King Zhao married the daughter of the Xiao family in the south of the Yangtze River with the first emperor, so it was to stabilize the south of the Yangtze River." Pei Ju said: "It's a pity, if that Princess Zhao is still alive, what happened to the Zheng family today will not happen." .”

Wang Hong's heart moved slightly, watching Zheng Shanyuan's mouth slightly raised.

After some banquet, Cen Zhenben and other envoys drank all kinds of meat and eight vegetables, and returned to the guest room of Honglu Temple and vomited all night.

Jiang Chengxiao got into the carriage and headed towards the palace.

When passing by the King Zhao Palace under construction, he stopped for a moment, opened the curtain and looked at the outline of Miyagi.

Perhaps next year the King Zhao Palace will be completed, and a large family will live in it by then.

With a cool breeze, I got into the carriage.

"My lord, the weather is cold, we should go back to the residence as soon as possible." Nan Jiyun persuaded from the side.

"Well."

Putting down the curtain, Baiqi escorted the carriage and slowly disappeared into the street.
