After being a widow, the empress dowager was favored by the powerful ministers

Chapter 67
The news that the Empress Dowager bestowed a marriage on King Jing and a girl from the Qi family spread throughout Bianjing.

This Prince Jing has made outstanding military exploits and is said to be known as the most beautiful man on the border. Now he is going to get married, but this new wife is a girl from the Qi family.

But it's really not a match.

This marriage is too high-profile, everyone from a 70-year-old man to a seven-year-old child knows about it.

Anyone with a little bit of brains can guess that someone must be fanning the flames behind this matter.

And the person who fanned the flames was just to spread the news of this marriage to everyone, and even the common people were paying attention.

When the girl from the Qi family becomes a monk and Prince Jing welcomes her relatives, if the momentum is not grand enough and the scene is not grand enough, there will be jokes.

"Your Majesty, the common people outside are spreading stories about the girls from the Qi family and His Royal Highness King Jing, what the storyteller told is wonderful."

Jian Jia smiled and relayed to Sheng Baoling vividly what she heard from others.

The common people praised the girl from the Qi family as a fairy, and His Royal Highness King Jing as a heavenly man, talented and beautiful, they can be called a couple of gods and gods.

"I didn't expect that the people of Bianjing would love to make up and listen to the story of this fairy couple so much. It has spread so much!"

It's only been a day or two, and many people have been fascinated by it.

Sheng Baoling smiled, pinching the tea lid with her fingertips, carelessly scraping the surface of the tea with the tea lid, her slightly drooping eyes, taking a panoramic view of the tiny ripples.

The rumors outside are just like this cup of tea, although it will move when the wind blows, it won't ripp so violently.

Only someone stepping forward to push it, even if it's just a small push, is enough to shake off the ripples.

"Where are the people who like to make up, it's obviously our official who likes to listen to stories."

The corners of Sheng Baoling's mouth curled up slightly, his smile was light and ironic.

Jian Jia was stunned, "Ma'am?"

She didn't understand the meaning of Sheng Baoling's coming here for a while. How could she still listen to the news that was so popular in Bianjing?
"Could it be that the officials ordered people to spread this story outside?" Jian Jia couldn't help the curiosity and surprise in her heart.

Sheng Baoling smiled and said nothing.

Looking at her mother's inscrutable smile, Jian Jia also understood the general idea.

This was really done by officials.

However, she still doesn't understand, what are the officials doing to publicize this matter?
Happy for His Royal Highness King Jing, to create momentum for His Highness King Jing?

Having this thought, Jian Jia felt a chill in her heart and shivered.

It would be good for the officials not to count His Royal Highness Ji Jing, how could they have any good intentions to create momentum for His Royal Highness Jing.

Sheng Baoling was leaning on the couch, holding a book in his hand, flipping through it from time to time, but he was thinking about what Jian Jia said just now.

As soon as news of the marriage between King Jing and the Qi family spread, many people stared at the Qi family and King Jing, mostly saying that the Qi family's background was poor, and how could the girl of the Qi family deserve the title of Princess Jing.

Some were also laughing at Prince Jing's marriage. At the beginning, none of those noble girls were interested, but now they picked up a girl from the Qi family.

Really lost the watermelon to pick up sesame seeds.

They all took the attitude of watching this marriage as a joke.

But when the little emperor asked people to publicize the story of the fairy couple, he immediately described the Qi family girl as a fairy-like beauty.

He also described King Jing as a rich and handsome jade-faced gentleman.

A sky-high price gift, a generous dowry.

People, what they like to hear most are these stories to pass the time.

The attitude towards the marriage between King Jing and the Qi family also changed suddenly, from the original jokes and sarcasm, he gradually began to look forward to it.

It's just that this kind of expectation, if people fail, it will be really shameful if the grand Jingwang Mansion, the majestic Jingwang, and the dowry are shabby.

What the little emperor wanted was to hold King Jing up to a high place, and then fall heavily in the end.

It's just that the little emperor was impatient again this time.

Sheng Baoling thought about it, and couldn't help feeling a little funny.

The little emperor also had Taishi Lou beside him, but he only came up with such low-level methods when facing King Jing. After thinking about it, he still felt that the Qi family, the Yue family, was not powerful enough, so he relaxed his heart towards King Jing.

This is indeed what Sheng Baoling wanted to see from the very beginning. Only by letting the little emperor relax his guard against King Jing can King Jing secretly cultivate his own power.

This Qi family seems to be mediocre, but the eldest son of Qi is a talented person who has unique views on the political situation.

She ordered someone to investigate. Qi's eldest son had a marriage in the early years, and something happened, which made it a little embarrassing. Therefore, the Qi family has been suppressed, and because of this, Qi's eldest son has never had a chance to stand out.

For more than ten years, his official career has been frustrated.

In the eyes of outsiders, this Qi family is useless, the old one is old, and the young one is worthless.

Even now, the girl from the Qi family climbed up to King Jing, so what?
Could it be possible to turn over?
It's just that Concubine Jing is not a concubine in the palace. If she wants to stand up, she has to look at the officials' faces. The difference is still big.

This is the sound of Qi's family outside.

But Sheng Baoling in the palace.Qi Jun, the eldest son of Qi, is very optimistic about it.

No matter how bad the Qi family is, no matter how poor this Qi is, as long as she thinks about it, within half a year, she can make him an upstart in Bianjing City.

If she were the little emperor, she would never give King Jing any chance to breathe, and she would kill her with one blow.

Unfortunately, the little emperor is the little emperor, not Sheng Baoling.

From the fact that the Empress Dowager Yizhi, Sheng Baoling entered the palace, and the Lou family and the Sheng family separated their relationship, one can see that the Grand Master Lou is actually a timid person.

Just such a chance to breathe is enough to bring about earth-shaking changes in the city of Bianjing.

……

On the other side, at the little emperor's place, the atmosphere was obviously much more relaxed than usual.

The palace people also had to breathe a sigh of relief.

If the little emperor is in a good mood, the palace people like them can relax a bit. If the little emperor is in a bad mood, they will suffer.

For the past six months, I have always been on tenterhooks, for fear that my head will fall to the ground if I don't pay attention.

People outside all think that the official family has a gentle temperament, like the late emperor, and treats people kindly.

Especially last time, when the Empress Dowager hosted a banquet, someone in the palace knocked over the wine glass.

It is said in the palace and in the palace that the official family has a gentle temperament, which is even worse than that of the previous emperor.

But only those of them who have really served the officials know what the real temperament of the officials is.

Because of this, even if he suffered disaster, he didn't dare to speak, as if he said a word, he might lose his head tomorrow.

Although I don't know what the officials are happy about in the past two days, but don't worry about it, it's a good thing.

And the little emperor at this time was indeed as the palace people had guessed.

"Let the famous storyteller in the capital talk for half a month." The little emperor squinted his eyes, apparently in a happy mood.

The spies below were hesitant to speak. Hearing the recent news in Beijing, he always felt a little anxious. If he was so impatient, if King Jing was aware of it and made preparations at that time, this plan would become King Jing's help...

But looking at the little emperor in front of him, he didn't express the worries in his heart.

The little emperor played with the Langhao brush in his hand, and couldn't help thinking about the wedding day of Prince Jing.

Since this brother Wang has such a high reputation and prestige among the people and courtiers, this time, he should also have a long reputation.
