I do fortune-telling in ancient astrology

Chapter 151 I know where I come from and where I am going

The queen raised the wine bottle and said: "General Wei is the humerus of the imperial court, the right arm of His Majesty, and it has been seven or eight years since he became an official."

"The young general is full of energy. Be careful not to waste your bright future. In the future, you will also be the right-hand man of the prince. Although this world belongs to the emperor, it belongs to subjects like the general. If the prince needs it in the future, the general please don't refuse."

Lin Xing was a little surprised, such a wooing is too blatant, His Majesty is the most taboo of these, especially since the Shangdu Mansion only works for His Majesty.

Wei Mingji stood up and cupped his hands, and said: "I came to Beijing with my adoptive father at the age of ten, experienced in the army, entered the capital at the age of 15, and commanded the Yangzhai army when I was young. I know where I came from and where I am going. The queen does not need to ask for help." Your Majesty, I know what to do."

Lin Xingwei gave Wei Mingji a thumbs up in his heart. Wei Mingji has always been a person who never forgets his original mission.

The queen was not satisfied with this ambiguous answer, but the prince was very satisfied, and said: "Smiling, the queen mother is too worried. General Wei is a smart person, and he has always been closest to me. I have Ming Ji as my assistant, and the other princes are nothing to be afraid of." !"

He said: "All of you here are my family members, so I will speak directly if I have something to say. The second prince is stupid, he can't even understand the books taught by his master, and has been reprimanded by his father several times. The superior holds the real power, but he is very suspicious, suspicious and distrustful of his subordinates, this is his biggest flaw!"

"Only the fourth prince is deeply loved by the emperor, but her mother and concubine come from a humble background, and they don't even have money for rewards. How can they compete with me? The fifth prince is young, let alone fear!"

The eldest princess said very calmly: "Prince, don't underestimate the enemy. The fourth brother's birth mother, Concubine Zhao, is the sister of General Zhao Jue. After the chaos, the emperor looked for the members of the Zhao clan and treated them favorably all these years, but the low-key behavior of the Zhao clan does not mean that they have no strength, the crown prince should be careful."

The prince waved his hand, drank the wine in his hand, and said with a light smile, "I am the prince, and what I do now is just to prevent problems before they happen. The younger brothers are respectful to me, so don't worry about them going past me."

The eldest princess gave the prince a hard look, and cursed inwardly, "It's really arrogant!"

Madam Hou glanced at Wei Mingji with a sullen face, and said softly: "Today is a family banquet, it is not appropriate to talk about the affairs of the princes casually, and if it is spread, it will easily leave the prince with something to say, the prince should be careful."

The queen looked at Lin Xingwei and Su Ji, and said, "Ran Ran, Ah Ji, once the empress dowager's filial piety is over, you are going to be engaged to the lords. I have already prepared dowry for you according to the specifications of the princess."

"The Empress Dowager's filial piety has delayed you for too long. You are not too young. After getting engaged, choose an auspicious date to get married as soon as possible, so that we can fulfill our wishes as elders. General Wei, Mr. Yuan, what do you think?"

Lin Xingwei looked at Wei Mingji happily, and finally waited for this day, and the two of them no longer had to hide their secret gatherings.Su Ji's face was pale, and her palms were sweaty nervously.

Wei Mingji glanced at the well-behaved and sensible Lin Xingwei beside him with a smile, cupped his hands and said, "To tell you the truth, my parents have already come to the capital from Beihai County in a few days, and they are here to discuss the wedding of the minister and the princess."

"I have already asked the gods in Guanzhong about the date of engagement, and it is set on July [-]. I want to set the date of marriage in August, within January. I will discuss the details with the elders of the Marquis Mansion."

Lin Xingwei's eyes widened, why didn't she know that she was getting engaged?Mrs. Hou looked very calm, she should know it.

After hearing this, the queen smiled and asked Yuan Cheng, "Where is Mr. Yuan, what is your plan?"

Yuan Cheng had seen beautiful women before, but Su Ji was indifferent to him. If he hadn't taken a fancy to Su's family background, he would never have agreed to this marriage.

Yuan Cheng hesitated for a while and said, "A while ago, my father suffered from some minor illnesses, but he has recovered recently. Besides, the Empress Dowager's filial piety will not be over until the end of June, so there is no time to discuss the marriage in the future."

The queen forced a smile, and said: "Three years seems to be a long time, but in the end it passed in a flick of a finger. In June, the imperial court will perform the last ceremony for the queen mother. Once the ceremony is over, all these taboos will be lifted. .”

"What should be engaged, what should be married, have to be done, Mr. Yuan also needs to prepare quickly, don't waste time."

Yuan Cheng reluctantly complied, so he didn't say any more.

After the dinner, Mrs. Nanyang Hou was left by the Queen to speak, and Wei Mingji sent Lin Xingwei home, and the two took a carriage together.

After a long while of silence in the carriage, Lin Xingwei asked worriedly, "Are you really going to support the prince?"

"This is what you want to ask?" Wei Mingji was obviously puzzled, and asked again: "I thought you wanted to know when you and I got married."

Lin Xing glanced at him slightly, and said angrily, "There's no need to worry about it. The two elders will discuss it and settle it."

"I am worried about your future. I know that you have always been close to the prince. You either gave him a leopard or a falcon, and even advised him on many things. I want to know that you really want to support him as emperor. ?"

Wei Mingji raised his hand to rub Lin Xingwei's frowning brows, and asked softly: "Isn't it okay for me to support him? He is your cousin, a close relative!"

"Not good!" Lin Xingwei immediately said: "Being an emperor depends on his strategy and ability, not on whose cousin or close relative he is. The prince is conceited, does not do practical things, and blindly seeks out tricks, thinking that he can win the support of two important ministers." He can take the position of the dragon, he is more naive than me."

Wei Mingji smiled, "Compared with you, he is indeed more naive than you. ... I advise him on irrelevant things, and no one will be hurt. Sending him leopards and falcons is just to appease him. , none of this matters."

He breathed a long sigh of relief, and said: "Xingwei, you have been imprisoned in the Taiwei's mansion for half a year, you don't know how much I worry about you, if I don't get close to the prince, I'm afraid your marriage will not happen. It went so well."

Lin Xingwei opened his bright eyes wide, staring at Wei Mingji like two springs reflecting the moonlight, "Are you doing this for me?"

"In the past, the empress wanted to force you into me, but I didn't want it. Now that I want you, they insist that you don't want to give it to me. I have to promise to do things for the prince." Wei Mingji put his arms around Lin Xingwei's shoulders, leisurely and authentic.

"Then if you are like this, you are not afraid of your majesty's misunderstanding?"

"I'm afraid, of course I'm afraid. But Your Majesty trusts me and knows that I won't betray him easily." Wei Mingji smiled lightly.

There is one thing that Lin Xingwei has never figured out. His Majesty has countless generals who are good at fighting. Why should he trust a brat and set up a Shangdu Mansion just for Wei Mingji because of him.

Lin Xingwei blinked, and asked carefully: "Can you tell me why Your Majesty believes you?"

Wei Mingji lightly pecked Lin Xingwei's forehead, and said with a smile, "Because Your Majesty and I are in an alliance with each other, Your Majesty trusts me more than anyone else."

Lin Xingwei didn't understand even more, "Alliance? You are a young man with nothing, why can you form an alliance with His Majesty, and he also let you take over the military power, so you are not afraid that you will turn against him one day in the future?"

Wei Mingji stared at Lin Xingwei seriously with downcast eyes, and said softly, "Because I have the same ambition as Your Majesty, it's a long story, and I'll tell you later."

He kissed Lin Xingwei's forehead again. This time he stayed for a long time, and then went down between his eyebrows. After a brief stop at the tip of his nose, Wei Mingji's lips hid in the soft harbor under Lin Xingwei's nose.
