Chapter 470 The origin of the tigress.The lady wants that veiled little girl
Li Yu's face turned red when he was asked, and he couldn't help answering, so he could only reply quietly;
"The Queen's Majesty, the houses my son goes to the most are Uncle Yuchi's house, Uncle Du's house, Uncle Fang's house, Uncle Li Jing's house, Uncle Changsun's house, Uncle Li's house and Uncle Li's house. I've met him a few times, so I'm an acquaintance."

Empress Changsun said cheerfully;

"Look at you, you can do this evil thing. Among the loyal civil and military ministers of your majesty, you are all acquaintances of the top few important ministers. You have a vicious eye and you really know how to choose a family. Forget it, since you know everyone There are so many big people, why don’t you visit your aunts and aunts?”

"Yes, I understand."

Empress Changsun explained again with some worries;

"Don't really just go to visit a few familiar families. All of you here are your elders. We can't lose our etiquette and make people laugh at us for our lack of manners."

"Empress, don't worry, the child knows."

Li Yu was a little embarrassed by what was said, but there was nothing he could do about it, how many eyes were watching in the public, how could His Royal Highness refuse to do it?

No matter how embarrassing Li Yu was, he still had to follow orders, so he had to deal with the situation and leave here quickly, turned around and walked to Mrs. Qin and Mrs. Cheng Yaojin's place, bowed down and bowed down;
"My son greets the two aunts, and the two aunts are blessed."

Cheng Yaojin's wife smiled gently;

"My son, get up quickly."

Mrs. Qin joked with a smile;
"Aren't you going to meet your elders soon?"

"Yes, thank you two aunts."

Li Yu straightened up, bowed to the east to salute, and then saluted to the west again, the ladies on both sides all giggled and told Li Yu to excuse the salute, those of the same generation did not dare to sit and accept the salute, they all stood up and behaved return gift.

Among the wives at the top on the east side, the two or three sitting in the front are the most senior. Among them, Fang Xuanling's wife~Fan Yang, the authentic family member of the Lu family, was born in the third family, and the dying patriarch of the Lu family. The direct sister.

This is the famous tigress Lu Shi during the Zhenguan period. This master is a well-known figure, and the origin of the jealousy is passed on from this lady.

Fang Xuanling's ancestral home is from Hedong Wucheng in the Qing Dynasty, and his background is not bad. He is the No.13 grandson of Sikong Fangzhi in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and the great-great-grandson of Fang Fashou, General Longxiang of the Northern Wei Dynasty.
However, in his father's generation, the official position was much smaller. Although his background was reasonable, compared with his wife Lu's identity as the authentic daughter of Qiwang, who was born in five surnames, it was unavoidably not enough.

Therefore, this Lu family is a typical married off, and brought a lot of dowry and property from her natal family, and has always regarded herself very high and forced Fang Xuanling down.

Fang Xuanling never took a concubine. According to official history, Tang Taizong Li Shimin wanted to rule this tigress and rewarded two beauties, but Fang Xuanling's wife, Mrs. Lu, kicked him out of the house.

Emperor Taizong gave a pot of poisoned wine and sent someone to explain the situation. Either he would accept the rewarded beauty, or he would drink the poisoned wine and kill himself.
As a result, this fiery Lu family drank the poisoned wine without saying a word. How could Emperor Taizong really give poisoned wine to the wife of an important minister?
He just wanted to see if she was really violent, but it turned out that she was so, Emperor Taizong could only take back those two beauties.

But the tigress is also scared because of this, she is afraid that her husband is really determined to find a concubine, and it will be extremely troublesome then!
So from the dowry given by her natal family, and some servants who came with her, she selected two girls to be housemates for her husband, which stabilized Fang Xuanling's restless heart.

This Lu family's natal family is the authentic sect of Qiwangli with five surnames, not a branch, and the husband is a famous and capable minister in front of His Majesty the Emperor.

He is still the prime minister of the imperial court, and there is no jealousy in the backyard. The life of Lu family is extremely chic and comfortable. He acts and speaks very cheerfully, and is not afraid of anyone. Okay, let's get down to business. The tigress is careless laughed;
"Which family's young lady is my nephew just looking at? If you have someone you like, please tell me the details. Auntie will be a matchmaker with you and go a few times to ask how the family is going?"

Li Yusheng was afraid that this unrestrained and carefree tigress would say more, so he hurriedly explained;

"Going back to my aunt, my nephew doesn't have anyone he likes for the time being. The aunts are sitting here, and my nephew has gone."

Li Yu hurried to the top without waiting for an answer;

"I want to report to your majesty, my son wants to go to the front to meet His Majesty and all the uncles, please help me."

Empress Changsun grabbed Li Yu's clothes, pulled him into her arms, and whispered in Li Yu's ear;

"What your aunt of the Fang family said this time is very much in line with my wishes. There are dozens of young ladies here tonight. It's good for you to have a look, but if there is one you like, if there is one you like, I will come to think of it for you Method.

If it's from a noble family, let's go back and be a good wife. If it's from an ordinary family, the empress can make arrangements for you directly. Wouldn't it be a good thing to be a concubine for you? "

Li Yu bowed his head shyly;
"Your Majesty is still young, and besides, the filial piety period has not yet passed. Is it too early to mention these things?"

"What's the matter? Your Majesty is already married at your age, and I also have a..."

Empress Changsun almost slipped her mouth, so she quickly stopped and changed the subject immediately;

"I know about the filial piety period, but there are only two years left. The main reason is that we have to deal with the woman we like immediately, and we will become other people's wives if it is too late. Do you think it is Can you get the goods if you buy Wuliangye for the money?
Don't you have to prepare in advance, my son, you don't know, don't look at the many little ladies here, in fact, half of them belong to someone else, and you have fifteen strands of hair, so it should be the time to talk about the big event of marriage Well, how can I not worry about it? "

Li Yu turned his head involuntarily and looked again. He glanced to the east, and a large group of family members in the main hall were staring at this side. Li Yu just met the eyes of everyone when he looked back, and quickly turned his head back.

Several wives followed Li Yu's eyes, and also looked at the two little ladies over there. Li Yu first took a look at those two beautiful ladies, and immediately stared at them with a bunch of eyes. , the two quickly lowered their heads, feeling a little embarrassed.

Empress Changsun immediately knew the origin over there with a glance and said with a smile;

"You have a wicked eye, the two most outstanding young ladies of the Kongyan family are also the most outstanding among the dozens of civil and military families tonight.

Sigh... You have created a big problem for your mother. Although the Yan family promised to give you a wife as a wife, who knows whether it will be a natural daughter or a concubine daughter?

Even if we were given a daughter from the Yan family, it’s hard to say that it must be this one. The old uncle of the Yan family has a very weird temper. He is as good as the Supreme Emperor. He is still a family that cannot be used by force. She is a great hero of the royal family..."

Li Yu suddenly raised his head and said stubbornly;
"My lady, when I visited Yan's house that day, they asked this masked lady to come out to meet her. It is said that the Yan family has not yet made an appointment, and there is no one's first wife, Seventh Lady."

When Empress Changsun heard that she was Yan's direct daughter, her eyes lit up immediately, but she said in a low voice;
"There are also a bunch of concubines from the Yan family. God knows what the old patriarch of the Yan family is thinking. If we only give you a concubine, there is nothing we can do..."

Li Yu sneaked a glance over there again. The beautiful girl in dark green clothes was covered with a light green veil and was tall and tall. Even when she was sitting, her figure was obviously not low. It was really pleasing to the eye. Li Yu stared at the eldest grandson empress Seriously said;
"I want to report to the empress, when I was at their Yan family that day, the old patriarch mentioned that I, Aye, went to propose a marriage back then.
He also said that he was not willing to give up here or there, and he promised many things on the spot, and he also did half of it for them today. In the next two days, I will pay the money they need for the state capitals and county towns they bought. The Ministry of Households, taking back the contract and sending them these is not equivalent to a dowry gift? "

Empress Changsun asked happily again;

"Is there such a good thing? Then there are some clues. Did the old patriarch make it clear to you on the spot that he wanted to use this direct relative, Seventh Lady, as your wife?"

"This one……"

Li Yu carefully recalled the scene at that time. The old patriarch only said that he was reluctant to part with this granddaughter, but he didn't explain other things clearly. He couldn't help sinking his shoulders and said in frustration;

"Returning to Niangniang, it's not clear that this is what it is, but when it was mentioned about my son's marriage, the old patriarch immediately called the little lady out, saying that he had to take a look at it, so as not to lose sight after getting married.

Empress!Didn't they just explain it, do they still have to go back on their word? "

Empress Changsun looked at the wives in the main hall, although they were chatting happily, but Changsun knew that many people were staring at this side, so she didn't dare to show any other expressions, and just spoke calmly;
"My son, how do you know the methods of the old patriarch? After all, you are still a little too tender. At that time, you should have made your words clear and clear, and there must be a witness present to decide the outcome. You are a child. How can you cope without adults present?

They didn't explain everything clearly, and you agreed to many things in a panic, which is already inferior.

Next time you go to Yan's house to deliver those contracts, you can ask your third uncle to go with you in person, and I can rest assured that General Cheng will sit in charge for you.

In addition, it was General Cheng who personally sought out the matchmaker for you at the beginning, so it will be a foregone conclusion to press down on her matter next time.

Then wait for your filial piety to pass and hurry up to perform the calligraphy ceremony. This is the surefire way. After that, if you go to the Yan family without your third uncle in charge, you can't go privately.

Otherwise, you will still be entangled, and you will lose a lot more. You are not the opponent of the old patriarch. Your third uncle can only succeed if you go there. Can you hear me clearly? "

"what?"

When Li Yu heard that Cheng Poppi was going to be asked to preside over the overall situation, he was immediately taken aback. He couldn't help but look up at the side of Empress Changsun, and the two hostesses of Qin Cheng who were sitting next to each other.
I want to say a few words about whether he can do it, but don’t give me a good thing and stir it up like a shit stick, but I don’t have the courage to say it, so I can only mutter in a low voice;

"Your Majesty, you really want to ask Third Uncle to go, then... if that's the case..."

Empress Changsun reached out without hesitation and tapped a chestnut on Li Yu's head;
"What do you want to say, you bastard, how can your third uncle's wisdom be understood by a yellow-mouthed child like you, a real idiot and a real rotten wood can't be carved."

"Your Majesty, calm down, I don't dare to speak ill of my third uncle, how can I be such a rebellious and unfilial son, everyone knows that I am a filial son.

I'm not worried that the third uncle and his old man will forget everything once they drink, if they start to drink and go crazy again, won't the matter of the flat wife be ruined? "

Mrs. Qin and Mrs. Cheng looked at Li Yu's anxious look, completely out of the usual quick-wittedness. They were afraid that others would mess up his beautiful affairs, so they covered the corners of their mouths with silk scarves and laughed lightly. Cheng Cuishi looked at Li Yu. Yu said gently;
"My son, tell me about the one in the green dress and the veil first, but is it your favorite?"

Li Yu said in a low voice with some embarrassment;
"That's exactly what Auntie said. My nephew has been thinking about it ever since he saw the real face of the Seventh Lady."

"Then you have to think about it, Auntie is here to tell you the truth, the old patriarch of the Yan family has various methods and emerges endlessly.

It wasn't when the scholars of the Yan family were the patriarchs in the past. The old patriarchs of the Yan family are both civil and military, and they are extremely powerful.

When the patriarch of the old Yan was young, he traveled all over the world and made many friends. He has inextricable relationships with the heads of many families of the five surnames and Qiwang, and they are all very close.

Nowadays, in many aristocratic families, the heads of wealthy and powerful families are all his juniors, and they are very respectful to them. They are not ordinary old father-in-laws.

You know that when the Supreme Emperor rebelled, the old patriarch Yan traveled tens of thousands of miles, and with his own strength, he united many families to support the Supreme Emperor's rebellion.
But he is a very capable person, the old patriarch of the Yan family has a lot of knowledge in the blink of an eye, if you, a young child, want to go to fight, I'm afraid you won't be able to do it all.

If you want that lady who is a direct relative to be your wife, no matter if it is a regular wife, or a normal wife, let me tell you the truth today.
Without your third uncle to take charge of the overall situation, your matter would definitely not be possible, but the old patriarch Yan is not a person who breaks promises, he will implement it in place if he promises, and he will not rely on you, but when the time comes It is not known whether I will give you a natural daughter or a concubine daughter. "

Li Yu was dumbfounded when he heard that, what a good guy is saying that is so powerful?With just one mouth, you can persuade other people's families to come out and rebel with others?

After Madam Cheng finished her last few sentences, she looked at Li Yu triumphantly. Even Empress Changsun didn't refute after hearing this, but nodded frequently to show that it was true.

Mrs. Qin then added a sentence;
"How can you know the reason behind it, you evil bastard, do you know why the elder brother brought the third younger brother to propose marriage to you?

The old uncle of the third brother's family is the good brother of the patriarch of the Yan family. The relationship between the Yan and Cheng families is extremely deep. Too much.

Looking further up, the Yancheng family has a friendship of more than 300 years, so the elder brother asked the third younger brother to intercede in person.
The old patriarch of the Yan family thought it was your third uncle who pleaded for mercy in the past, and the old uncle Wan An coaxed him one by one. He looked at the family relationship of the two families for more than 300 years, and your third uncle who was the mediator agreed. , promise to give you a daughter of the Yan family as a wife when you grow up, otherwise you can easily get it as the daughter of the Yan family? "
