Han Zuo Gaomen

Chapter 539 The lady is cute
The empress dowager and the emperor still live in Jianping Garden. Although the new garden city has been built, the details are still being worked on.What's more, it's not a rebellious army attacking the city right now, there must always be a ritual system in everything, even if it is a big event for the people to move to a new residence, the emperor can't neglect moving back to Yuancheng, and the date that is often drawn up is the winter solstice.

So before that, the Taiwanese ministers still had to run on both sides of Taicheng and Jianping Garden.

After a simple question, the emperor used to reward some money and silk for the purpose of settling down, and then He Xi resigned and left.

After seeing He Xi off, the emperor stood up from his seat, jumped in front of Shen Zhezi, pointed at him and laughed, "I heard people say that my brother-in-law was scolding despicable people in Taicheng the day before yesterday. Brother-in-law, you A few words are as sharp as a sharp blade, and even people who are not involved with it will feel cold sweat running down their backs, it is really refreshing!"

Shen Zhezi sat in the banquet, glanced at the emperor, chuckled, and didn't say much.

The emperor refused to change the topic, and leaned in front of Shen Zhezi and said, "Brother-in-law, you have a strong eloquence, and every time you make people lose their voices, how do you develop this skill? Can you teach me a thing or two?"

"Do you have a lot of people to berate?"

At present, apart from the two of them, there are only sporadic palace servants standing by, so Shen Zhezi no longer insists on etiquette, and asked with a smile.

After the emperor heard this, he also laughed, and sat down on the edge of the table, holding his increasingly plump cheeks with his hands: "The empress mother taught me to be knowledgeable, but she didn't want me to touch it when bowing horses and shooting. Brother-in-law, you speak so eloquently and don’t show off Bingjia, it’s already frightening. If I can learn a thing or two of this kind of skill, I won’t be underestimated or ignored in the future.”

This is a bit deep. Although Wang Dao will not punish the emperor with corporal punishment like Yu Liang, in fact, it is inevitable that he will be more vain and ignore it.Among other things, at the very least, even if the emperor made a statement on political affairs, he would definitely not get the treatment he deserved.Although the little emperor doesn't have the urgent need to revitalize the imperial power right now, but at this age, he needs a sense of presence and respect, and it is inevitable to feel sullen.

To this, Shen Zhezi could only answer him: "You might as well read more and pick up interesting things. In your free time, you are happy to see the old Taifu bowing down and doing fine work."

Naturally, he couldn't teach the emperor any arbitrary and monopolistic power tactics, and the emperor might not be able to learn it, so he simply taught some spiritual victory methods, even if it didn't help, at least he could enjoy himself.

"Actually, I would like my brother-in-law to enter the Tai Pavilion, so that we can see each other for a long time. My sister has complained a lot recently that my brother-in-law is in the government, and the Taibao always makes things difficult. If you come to the Tai Pavilion, brother-in-law , if I can help you, you can help me too, we can both be calm."

The emperor said regretfully, he missed Shen Zhezi taking charge of Taicheng during the chaos last year. Although he didn't do whatever he wanted, he was still happy and at ease, and the eunuchs didn't dare to say anything in front of him.But this kind of time is too short, now he is being disciplined by his mother inside, and being vainly served by Tai Fu outside, although the expenses are more than then, but it is much less fun.

Not long after the two chatted, the palace servants came to summon them, so they got up and went to see the empress dowager.

After the courteous meeting, Shen Zhezi was summoned by the empress dowager to sit down nearby, and Princess Xingnan, who had come earlier, sat beside him.

"At the side of my husband, this lady finally has a bit of a gentle posture, so that I won't be ashamed to see my good son-in-law."

Seeing some intimate gestures naturally revealed by the young couple, the empress dowager said with a smile.

After chatting about some trivial matters, the empress dowager sighed and said: "When the late emperor was still here, choosing a good son-in-law was finally a debt of life for his sons and daughters. Now I see that your husband and wife are loving and admiring each other. I am also very relieved. Just read And there are still two young widows in the court, and they are worried and can't sleep at night."

Shen Zhezi glanced at the princess beside him after hearing the words, and the princess returned a helpless smile.

"What is a widower?"

The emperor asked curiously.

Shen Zhezi glanced at him but didn't answer. It can't be said that the empress dowager used allusions indiscriminately. An old man without a wife is a widower, and a young widow means you, a little bachelor.

The empress dowager took another look at the emperor who was not ashamed of being single, and then sighed to Shen Zhezi: "Originally, this kind of family matter is not enough to discuss with outsiders. But now there are few relatives in the sect, and I can only live in Weiwei." There are a few words in front of you Zhou. Wei Zhou, you are a leader in the city, and you are surrounded by many sages. It is no fault to test your words today. In your opinion, who can be a good match for a brother like you?"

When Shen Zhezi heard this, he felt a little embarrassed.Originally, according to his intention, he didn't think that the post-election was a good opportunity, and he deliberately avoided this question in front of the empress dowager, but he didn't expect to be asked face to face today.

"My mother's question really stopped me. Although I have many good friends in the capital, most of my contacts are from different families. It's not easy to ask too deeply about who has a lady in the pavilion."

When the empress dowager heard this, she couldn't help laughing: "I'm really a god of long-term worries and obscurity, so I didn't think about this section. Alas, in this chaotic world, it is inevitable to worry about daughters or shoes, so it is necessary to repair the short ones." Misfortune and good fortune are also unpredictable. Fortunately, the emperor is married to the emperor, and the country has great grace. Now widowed and orphaned, it is difficult for a woman to have a clear voice. She only wants to see the prosperity of the clan. If you can see the emperor become a long-term man, even if it is just a mediocre The choice, the heirs will continue, the Jin Zuo will be continuous and orderly, and I will die without regret."

Shen Zhezi couldn't help feeling a little emotional when he heard the empress dowager's pessimistic tone.In the past, when he considered the issue of the emperor's election, he mostly considered it from the political aspect, but he ignored the empress dowager's sense of urgency that as a widowed mother, facing the dilapidated world, her own fate is ill-fated.

Seeing the empress dowager's frowning look, if she can't arrange a marriage for the emperor, I'm afraid she will be troubled here for a long time, and she will feel sick.This kind of biased knowledge is also a long-standing problem in Shen Zhezi's body. When considering issues with less emotion and more consideration of interests, it is inevitable that he will be a little indifferent to people's feelings.

After pondering for a while, Shen Zhezi replied: "Although I haven't met many women from other families, I still hear about them occasionally. Since the Empress Mother has a question today, I might as well give it a try. It's just for reference and I don't dare to discuss it in depth."

"Your lord, you are always too upright in your etiquette. There is no need to be too taboo about gossip in the court at present. The lady of the He family has one or two virtuous voices, so you can talk about it, and you don't have to force Wang Ge's family. .”

When the empress dowager heard this, she cheered up again and said with a smile.

"Jiangxia Gong Weichong, with a wife at home, aged thirteen, seems to be the beginning of cardamom, youthful and beautiful, to cultivate everyone's posture."

In fact, when the princess raised this question in front of Shen Zhezi, Shen Zhezi was also thinking about it, so it's not that there are no candidates.

"Comparing my daughter to cardamom, people will feel that Wei's daughter is fresh and lovely when they hear it. This is indeed a choice. If you ask a woman to see her in the future, you can ask someone to ask about it."

After the empress dowager heard the words, she nodded slightly and said.

"Therefore, Du Yi, Muhou of Dangyang, has a wife who is ten years old. Because my clan relative Du Daohui has a close relationship with me, she now lives in my family's other business. It's Jiaer."

Shen Zhezi is also a virtuous person who does not avoid relatives, and does not deliberately avoid the original historical queen.Although he was a little reluctant in his heart, because if Du's daughter was really elected, Du He would definitely need to return to the capital and enter Taiwan to make a living, so he couldn't find a suitable successor in Jiangbei for a while.But he didn't need to ruin someone's future because of this incident. Now, it is up to the empress dowager to choose whether to choose or not.

When the Empress Dowager heard this, she pondered for a while before smiling apologetically at Shen Zhezi: "Mothers always care too much, and this Du family's heir seems to be not prosperous. But since Wei Zhou mentioned it, I will keep it in mind."

Having said that, Shen Zhezi could also see that the Empress Dowager was not happy to choose the daughter of the Du family.Historically, when the daughter of the Du family was elected, it was chosen by the ministers in the absence of the empress dowager.But now the empress dowager is still alive, and after being elected to the emperor, she has the idea of ​​relying on her family, so naturally she will not choose the Du family's widowed family.

"Actually, your brother-in-law of the Yu family also recommended her, she is the second daughter of Zhuge's family. His patriarch's daughter is already suitable for your uncle's cousin. It would be a happy event if we can get married again."

The empress dowager said with a smile again, looking at her demeanor, she was very satisfied with Yu Bing's recommendation.Not to mention that the Zhuge family was originally her mother's in-laws, and his family was a noble family in the imperial township, and Zhuge Hui himself was also a dignified minister, so he naturally met all the expectations of the empress dowager.

Shen Zhezi sighed after hearing the words. The reason why he didn't want to see the emperor's election too early was because of the current situation.The Qingxu family is the old base of the Yue Mansion. If Shen Zhezi wants to jump out of the current situation, he must unite with others to suppress them, so as to gain enough room for advancement.But if Zhuge becomes the head of the country, this goal will be pushed away again.

Moreover, Zhuge Hui was far younger than Dao Wang, Shen Zhezi absolutely couldn't tolerate such a person on top of his head!
Although Princess Xingnan is not lacking in other aspects, she has a keen sense of Shen Zhezi's emotions. Shen Zhezi's expression changed just now. Is it because of my hometown? If all the relatives follow the family of the villagers, how can the emperor be fair in the future? When my father promised me to be in Wuxiang, the benefits I have received now are not greater than those of the villagers. concern?"

After the Empress Dowager heard this, she was startled for a while, pondered for a while, and then pointed to her daughter and smiled: "My wife is really impressive. Could it be that the water and soil in Wuzhong can really open up people's spiritual wisdom? If so, I am really I want to choose a wife from your husband's family to match Ah Hui."

When Shen Zhezi heard this, he wanted to give his wife a hundred praises in his heart. It was really difficult for him to refute this question. On the contrary, the princess's teasing and joking remarks directly greatly weakened the empress dowager's intention to form a friendship with Zhuge's family.

Such a lady, who can read her mind and come in handy at critical moments, can't be too dear!
