Yurun Bingyan of the Red Chamber

Chapter 35

After seeing off Eunuch Li, Mo Yu looked at her sister worriedly, bit her lip and was about to leave.Daiyu hurriedly pulled him back and said, "Mo'er, what are you going to do?" Moyu said, "I'll go to Mohan and ask him to find his father to take back his life." Moyu now regrets wanting to teach Concubine Yuan Gui a lesson. .In fact, he still has a way to let the Jia family's affairs be settled outside the palace directly, without involving Concubine Yuan Gui in the palace.It is also possible to ask Mrs. Wang not to complain to Concubine Yuan Gui, but he wants to teach Concubine Yuan Gui a lesson.It's just that he didn't expect that the emperor would miss his sister's marriage because of this.Mo Yu gritted her teeth. She already knew that the emperor was out of tune, so she shouldn't have asked Mo Han to participate in this matter. The teacher and Brother Huangfu were right, he was indeed a little too young.

"Nonsense! The king's order is hard to break. No matter how good your relationship with Mohan is. How can you go back on what the emperor has ordered?"

"It's not wise to choose the county horse." Thinking of this, Mo Yu felt a little relieved.He didn't worry about his sister marrying someone he didn't know at all.Daiyu nodded, knowing it well in her heart, since the emperor hadn't made a decree yet, but Eunuch Li just mentioned it, it meant there was room for it.Anyway, I will enter the palace tomorrow.It's time to play by ear.Daiyu glanced lightly at the jade box engraved with flame marks left by Lin Ruhai in the drawer, and the expression on her face gradually became firm.

Shui Cangming summoned Daiyu and Moyu in Liu Guifei's palace.After saluting, Shui Cangming said with a smile: "The princess and the young prince are exempt from the ceremony. Give me a seat." The two thanked En and sat down, and Shui Cangming said to Daiyu: "The princess doesn't have to be too formal, we are not the first. We met for the first time. Right? Miss Lin?" Daiyu said, "Thank you, Your Majesty." Mohan sat on the side and winked at Moyu, who was still sullen, and glanced at him indifferently, ignoring him.

Shui Cangming looked at the pair of siblings with great satisfaction and said to Concubine Liu: "The concubine looks at the descendants of the Wang family in Anqin County, it's not bad." And Xiao Shizi, he really is an outstanding person." He asked Daiyu and Moyu carefully about their lives in the capital, etc., and was talking, someone from outside informed, "His Royal Highness Yan Wang is looking for a visit outside the palace." Shui Cangming She raised her eyebrows and said with a smile, "Please come in, King Yan." Concubine Liu Gui pulled Daiyu up and smiled, "They have business to discuss, Miss Lin and this palace, let's sit inside. Han'er greets you, little prince." Mohan nodded and smiled. : "Auntie, don't worry."

The two went into the inner room and sat down. Concubine Liu Gui smiled and said: "The princess and the young prince have been in Beijing for several years, and we have never taken care of them. I feel sorry for the king of Anqin." Daiyu pursed her lips and smiled slightly: "My lady That's too serious." Concubine Liu Gui looked at Daiyu and smiled, "You don't have to be strict with me, we are not those stick-headed, wooden daughters, just talk to each other. The emperor attaches great importance to the princess's marriage. Here. Princess, let’s take a look.” On one side of the table were several scrolls, Concubine Liu Gui opened one and handed it over with a smile, “This is the eldest grandson of Wangge’s hometown, from a well-known scholarly family.” Daiyu was stunned and looked at it quietly. Looking at the handsome and extraordinary son on the picture scroll, his face was calm and unwavering.Concubine Liu Gui forgot to glance at her, a smile flashed in her eyes, but she didn't say anything else.Huangfu Bingyan's voice came from outside and said: "Your servant Huangfu Bingyan has seen the emperor."

Shui Cangming's voice was filled with indescribable enthusiasm, "General Huangfu is here, just in time, I'm going to choose a son-in-law for the newly-appointed Anning County Lord, Yan Wang has a unique vision, come and see, we can't treat you badly After the loyal minister." Hearing this, Daiyu's face flushed suddenly, she was ashamed and annoyed.This emperor is really... Only Huangfu Bingyan said indifferently: "Princess An Ning is still young, and the emperor is impatient." Shui Cangming seemed to be unable to see the cold eyes of the person opposite and lamented: "I can't help it. If she takes the princess to live in the palace, I'm afraid it will make her feel restrained. If she lives outside the palace all the time, she will inevitably bother the princess An Ning. Isn’t it still young? Today, the young prince is here, why don’t you all go over the details together?”

Before Huangfu Bingyan could speak, Mohan screamed, "Father! How could you do this?"

Shui Cangming looked bewildered, "How about Zhenzhen?"

Mohan stared at him angrily, "How could you choose this Wang Zhihuan?" Shui Cangming said in confusion, "What's wrong with Wang Zhihuan? The grandson of Wang Ge, the son of a famous scholarly family, is also gentle and elegant. Ah." Mohan puffed his face and said, "But that guy can't be good at martial arts, he knows the ups and downs every day. Last time the prince asked him a very simple question, he actually gave me a dazed look. ! And this... Zhao Tingfang!"

"This one doesn't work either? General Hu Zi, a promising young man. At the age of 26, he is already the deputy general of the Hu Army."

Mo Yu's face was dark and muddy, "That guy has already lost two wives. One was accidentally beaten to death by him." If it wasn't for the second wife's humble background, it's still not certain whether he is a lieutenant general of the Tiger Army .

"Then... Then this is always okay? Wen Junjie, Shunyi Hou Shizi, has a handsome appearance and a personable demeanor. Both his literary and military skills belong to the upper class. Huangfu, don't you still have some friendship with him? Didn't you, Mohan, praise his poetry too? Are they all good?" Is it easy for me?Shui Cangming said triumphantly: "How is it? He..."

The other three were silent for a moment, and said in unison: "I like men."

A certain emperor who was swept away by his son and courtiers in front of the younger generation was very displeased, and his face turned blue and white.Huangfu Bingyan waited angrily and said: "This one won't work and that one won't work? Then what do you think? This will be all right!" Humph!If you have any more questions, I will strangle you to death!Mohan poked his head to look at the scroll in his father's hand, "Mr. Mei's son..." It seems that there is really nothing wrong with this.

Mei Zhaoxi, the eldest son of Mei Jianzhai, the Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, Tai Fu Mei Jianzhai, is 23 years old, and was named on the gold list three years ago.Now that he is a doctor of imperial history from the third rank, it is conceivable that he will be ranked first rank before the age of 30.Moreover, this person is handsome and handsome, he is known as the fourth son of the capital, and he is said to be good at playing the qin, and his father's charm is also in his calligraphy and painting.In terms of martial arts, it can't be said to be superb, but it is by no means a soft-legged shrimp with no power to restrain a chicken.Mohan blinked, and took a sneak peek at Huangfu Bingyan.His father really spent a lot of money.

Shui Cangming proudly raised his chin and looked at the man across from him, "How is it? How is it?" Letting you choose, I will find you one that you can't choose!
"It should be me asking the emperor what you want."

"Eh? What does this mean?" Shui Cangming felt guilty.Huangfu Bingyan's eyes were as cold as ice.He said coldly: "Mei Zhaoxi has already engaged in marriage." Shui Cangming waved his hands indifferently, "It doesn't matter, how dare he refuse to listen when I tell him to quit the engagement?"

court death!The cold eyes under the mask revealed a message to him.

Shui Cangming tried his best to ignore the sudden overwhelming pressure, and stared back, unwilling to admit defeat: If you dare to hit me, I will marry Miss Lin to Mei Zhaoxi!

what on earth do you want?
Please... Shui Cangming burst into tears in his heart: Emperor Father, Empress Mother, is it easy for me to find a wife for him?woo woo
The atmosphere in the front hall was a little stagnant for a while, Mo Yu and Mo Han couldn't breathe under the weird and depressing atmosphere, and couldn't help but look at each other.Mohan glanced at his father's still smiling face, and said silently in his heart: Father, my son will never laugh at you again.You are still better.

Naturally, Daiyu and Concubine Liu Gui could clearly hear the conversation inside and outside.Daiyu's face also turned red and white.Unexpectedly, the emperor would discuss her marriage in front of Huangfu Bingyan.Also found so many picture scrolls.If it wasn't for her upbringing since she was a child and because Huangfu Bingyan was outside, Daiyu might break her usual self-cultivation and scold Shui Cangming.But she could only endure it.Daiyu had already made up her mind that no matter who the emperor asked her to marry, she would marry.The king's order can't be done... She couldn't estimate what kind of disaster would be brought to the Lin family and Moyu if she disobeyed the imperial decree.She is not alone.

Concubine Liu Gui sat on the side, watching Daiyu's face gradually turn blue because of the voices outside, but she was still very calm, and her expression was very determined, unlike her weak appearance.He nodded appreciatively in his heart, and his affection for Daiyu increased a bit.If Daiyu was the kind of person who would burst into tears or seek death when she heard that the person the emperor had chosen for her was not what she wanted, Concubine Liu Gui would look down on her instead.None of them are the protagonists of the stories of talented scholars and beautiful ladies in those stories.It's not those women who have to die for the sake of love and love, abandoning their parents and mothers and disregarding the family's face.The so-called ladies from famous families can't simply consider their own ideas more often.Because there are more people behind them.

There was a long silence outside.

Then, Huangfu Bingyan's deep voice sounded, and he said firmly: "I implore the emperor to give me a marriage."

Outside, Shui Cangming looked at the stalwart man kneeling in front of him, suppressed the urge to jump up and smiled and said: "Ah, King Yan also wants to get married? Which lady does King Yan like? I will give you an order immediately." Marriage." A certain emperor naturally forgot the marriage decree made just a month ago.

"Princess Anning."

Mohan raised his eyebrows, it's done, it's done.

Mo Yu raised his eyebrows, unexpectedly, blinked his eyes and looked at Huangfu Bingyan with his head tilted, and then he was relieved.I just knocked inside with some worry.

Shui Cangming also raised his eyebrows proudly.

"Cough, well, after I ask Princess Anning, if she agrees, how about I give you a marriage?"

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"No thanks, no thanks... But, if I were Princess Anning, I would also choose Mei Zhaoxi." Then she was satisfied to see the anger in Huangfu Bingyan's eyes shooting at him without any surprise.Sitting next to him, Mohan tugged at the corner of his clothes and reminded him in a low voice, "Father... just take it as soon as you see it, and you have to live in the future." Shui Cangming suddenly realized.Putting away the pride on his face, he changed into an expression full of imperial majesty and waved his hands: "In this case, King Yan will go back first. I will let the noble concubine ask Princess Anning when I turn back."
