Chapter 260
On this day, even if they could only drink some vegetarian wine, everyone would gather until late at night.Zhuhua thought that Yuantai had to take a break, so she didn't bother him the second time, and only handed him the list of the three ladies the next day, letting him have a look at it when he had time.The chief follower who had been staying in the county palace had inquired about the travel habits of these young ladies in advance. After Yuan Tai asked, he found that he was fine now, so he immediately followed him to find out the true faces of these three young ladies.At the end of the day, he did see two of them, and he hadn't seen the other lady surnamed Zhao.

After returning to the mansion, he went to Prince Ping's mansion to sit for a while. When he arrived at the front yard, he saw that Tuantuan was sitting on the board of directors. After not seeing Tuantuan for a few years, he became calmer and calmer.Seeing him coming, she stood up with a smile, served good tea, and chatted with him about some books she had read recently, and talked about the three young ladies he was looking at.Tuantuan has met all three of them, and they all have good impressions. Among them, Ms. Zhao is the most elegant, and she is the most congenial with her.

As soon as Yuan Tai heard this, he chose this Ms. Zhao secretly. The next day, he secretly took a look and saw that she was indeed an elegant and generous woman, so he was even more willing.Zhuhua got his reply, and immediately handed over the sign to enter the palace.The queen mother in the palace just had something to tell her, and when she saw her handing over the sign, she sighed helplessly.

Zhuhua didn't know what happened to the Empress Dowager, and after entering the palace, both sides chatted a few words, but it was the Empress Dowager who asked her first: "Isn't the King of Nanyang still looking after her?"

Zhuhua was about to say that she had been chosen, but the queen mother continued: "If there is no match, it will be just right. Mrs. Qing Guogong said yesterday that her natal family has a grand-niece who is the second child at home. She is beautiful and intelligent, and it is time for marriage. Sad. We have also seen that girl before, she fits perfectly with the King of Nanyang County, if the King of Nanyang County does not have a girl he likes, why not choose this Erniang Lu."

Zhuhua was slightly taken aback, she remembered that Erniang Lv was not included in the initial list, but she knew that this marriage could not be easily rejected, Duke Qing was Uncle Zhang, the lady from Uncle Zhang's wife's family, how could they push?
"The Queen Mother also knows that the King of Nanyang County has only lived in Prince Ping's Mansion for a while, and I have to ask him about his marriage first."

"That's the reason. Remember to ask after you go back, so that he won't miss a good relationship."

"Yes."

Zhuhua talked with the queen mother for a while, then she confessed her crime and left the palace.After getting into the carriage, she didn't go back to the house immediately, but went to the Hanlin Academy.

The guard at the gate of the Imperial Academy recognized the driver of Prince Ping's mansion. Hearing that it was Princess Ping who came to find Prince Ping, he hurriedly sent people in to spread the word, and wondered if something happened in the mansion.After hearing the report from the porter, King Ping came out in a hurry, and was a little surprised to see her.

"I met a man who looked like you on the street, and he disappeared in a blink of an eye. It seems that I was wrong." She smiled lightly.

The people nearby knew what they were hearing, and it turned out that Princess Ping came to find out the whereabouts of King Ping, and even lamented for King Ping.King Ping knew it was not because of this, so he dragged her to a corner, pretending to look at her in panic.

"Why do you do this, and let others arrange you."

"It's okay, I find it interesting." She put on a face, paused for a moment, and said, "Mrs. Qing wants her natal Lu Erniang to marry Yuan Tai, what do you think?"

"Duke Qing?" King Ping hesitated for a moment, then said, "Go home first and ask Yuan Tai what he means, and we will decide this matter tonight."

"Okay." Zhuhua nodded, raised her thin eyebrows, and said loudly, "Then I'll go back first, and you should do your best."

"Yes, Xiao Wang must remember the teachings of the princess."

King Ping responded, stepped forward to help her get into the carriage, and stood at the gate of the Imperial Academy to watch the carriage leave, until the carriage disappeared, he was relieved, turned and entered.The guards and guards glanced at each other, with both wonder and pity in their eyes. It seemed that the rumors about Princess Ping's fierceness were true, and such a petite person did not know how to subdue King Ping.

Zhuhua returned to the palace, and when she heard that Yuantai had come out to meet her friends, she called Qiuchu first and asked her to find out who Lu Erniang was.The beginning of autumn is also fast, and I immediately inquired about many things and answered them.

If we say that Erniang Lu is quite famous in the capital, her father is Madam Zhang's only direct nephew, and she is Madam Zhang's only direct nephew and granddaughter. Xu Guo is beautiful and beautiful, and he doesn't pay attention to some people who propose marriage.She has an aunt like Mrs. Zhang, so it's no wonder she is so arrogant.Mrs. Zhang also dotes on her and doesn't take these rumors outside seriously.

In the past few days, this Lu Erniang has been making a lot of trouble at home. The reason is that she saw Yuan Tai on the day the army returned to the court and entered the city. In fact, if it weren't for Yuanyuan's bunch of flowers, she might not have noticed this black boy. I didn't know that he was the king of Nanyang County.After returning home, she never forgot about Yuan Tai, and the family happened to be looking for a marriage for her, so she told her mother that she would marry the Prince of Nanyang County.

Her mother knew that her daughter was too self-willed, and she wanted to control her before, but her husband and aunt always told her not to restrain her too much, and now she couldn't control her even if she wanted to, but they blamed her again She didn't teach her daughter well.Mrs. Lu thought that it would be better for her to get married earlier. The king of Nanyang County has no parents, so she can marry; she has to trouble her aunt for this matter, otherwise the Lu family will not be able to get such a good marriage by themselves.

Uncle Zhang Guo said he was ill and would not go to court last year. His Majesty thanked him for his lifelong dedication to state affairs, and named him Duke of Qing. He refused repeatedly during his illness, and finally received the title.

But there is a reason for this.Because the Holy One strongly promoted officials who were not sent by Zhang, which aroused Uncle Zhang's dissatisfaction, he pretended to be sick at home.During his absence, the bureaucracy was in chaos, and several other ministers claimed that they were sick and would not go to court. Later, Princess Changle suggested that the emperor give Uncle Zhang Guo a reward, first stabilize him, and give the emperor some trustworthy The list of Zhang faction officials.Also because of this matter, when Princess Changle entered the palace recently, the Holy Majesty would always invite her over to discuss matters, but she couldn't refuse, so she had to go.

Mrs. Qing Guogong knew what was on Lu Erniang's mind, and felt that this marriage was good. If a woman from her Lu family can be the Duke's wife, she can also be the princess of the county, no matter how high the position is.After discussing with Duke Qing, Duke Qing also agreed.Recently, Yuan Heng was critical of some of his decisions in the official department, and he just used this incident to let him know that he didn't have to support him.

In the evening, King Yuantai and Heping happened to return to the mansion at the same time, so he didn't go to his own mansion, but went directly to King Ping's mansion.King Ping looked at him, thought for a while, called him to a corner first, and told him about Lu Erniang.

"This matter may wrong you. You are the son of Emperor Huizhuang, and you still have some affection with Duke Qing, but your Majesty's affection with him has been exhausted. If you marry a woman from the Lu family, you can It calmed his heart for a while, and let the sage breathe a sigh of relief. It's just that a wife is a virtuous husband, and if you marry her, there will be no peace in the family in the future, and even the one next to you will not be happy."

When Yuan Tai heard this, the vigorous smile that always hung on his face after returning from the war gradually faded, and he suddenly had a feeling that this is Chang'an.He looked at his seventh uncle, thought about the one next to him, and finally smiled.

"I have to go to the border after the next year, will she go to the border with me?"

King Ping twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "I don't know either, let's see what the Zhang family thinks."

After the two entered the room, Zhuhua looked at Ping Wang and Yuan Tai who came in at the same time, wondering if there was any sympathy between them.Zhuhua thought for a while, then waved to Yuantai and called him to the next room.

"Is it because the person that big brother is looking for didn't like him?" Jiajia guessed.

King Ping pressed his head and said, "Why are you more busy than your sister? Have you done your homework?"

Jiajia nodded, and pushed his hand away unhappily, he didn't like King Ping pressing his head, but King Ping kept pressing him.Pouting his lips secretly, he looked aside curiously again, not knowing what his mother was going to say to Yuan Tai.

"Do you know about Lu Erniang?" Zhuhua asked tentatively.

Yuan Tai nodded with a faint smile, and said, "Don't worry, Auntie, it doesn't matter who you marry, anyway, I only met those three young ladies once."

"That's not the case, Miss Bie's is fine, but this Miss Lu..." Zhuhua shook her head and said, "Otherwise, you can say that you married a lady at the border, and she is also pregnant now." Once you are pregnant, you cannot marry another person."

"Instead of finding such a young lady and child, it's better to marry Lu Erniang to save trouble." Yuan Tai smiled and looked at Zhuhua comfortingly, "Auntie, it's really all right, at least it's related to Duke Qing Miss."

"It's even worse if you have a relationship."

Yuan Tai smiled, but didn't answer.Zhuhua sighed, knowing that he had already made up his mind, so she didn't try to persuade him any more.The next day, she went to the palace to discuss the matter, and the queen mother seemed a little unhappy about it, even if Yuan Tai agreed to her, she was not very happy.

When the filial piety period expired, all the princes and county kings went to the ancestral temple to worship and formally remove the filial piety. After seven days, all the government's orders for marriage were issued.Yuan Heng married Chen Siniang, the daughter of Dali Siqing, Princess Wan'an married Xia Sanlang, the son of General Qianniuwei, and Princess Changhe married Xie Qilang, the direct branch of the Xie clan in Taiyuan. hold the line.

Zhuhua saw this eldest princess when she entered the palace, maybe Princess Changle was too conspicuous before, when others saw her, they couldn't help comparing her with Princess Changle, seeing that she was a little too quiet princess, they felt that there was no Princess Changle With style, it's no wonder the Holy Majesty doesn't pay much attention to this princess.Even Concubine Hui felt that this daughter was not up to the mark. If she could be as capable as Princess Changle, maybe the throne would still fall on the head of King Chen.Now that everything is a foregone conclusion, she only hopes that the Holy One will not have a son, so that her grandson can come out to fight for it.

Zhuhua had also heard about Xie Qilang, who the Chang and Princess Chang wanted to marry. After all, Xixi was still talking about marriage, and she had inquired about some young men of the right age in Chang'an.Xie Qilang is a romantic and unrestrained madman, and he even got jealous with someone after drinking and beat him to serious injury. In Zhuhua's opinion, it is really not a good match, but Concubine Hui is happy, and she is afraid that Princess Wan'an will take him away. It's her son-in-law who is riding a dragon.

As for Xia Sanlang, who Princess Wan'an is going to marry, Zhuhua has also heard Changzi mention it.

Xia Sanlang and Changzi are both in the left Weiwei. Now Changzi has been promoted to another level and is Xia Sanlang's boss, but General Xia is on top of Changzi. Changzi doesn't dare to do anything to his son, he is not such a person .But this Xia Sanlang is not like the humble General Xia and his two elder brothers, he is a handsome man with a fair face and elegant appearance.Changzi often joked with him, saying that he should go to school because he was born so innocent, and asked him why he didn't go for the No. [-] Scholar exam. He also replied that if he got the No. [-] Scholar exam, he was afraid that he would be blocked by flowers on the street on the day of riding a horse.

Although he can also joke with people, he usually doesn't like to talk very much, and he never goes to nonsensical places. Apart from practicing martial arts at home, he usually reads books. If he really wants to go for the No.

After the Holy Majesty knew that General Xia had such a son, he kept paying attention, and deliberately took Princess Wan'an past while he was standing guard, and even stayed for a while with an excuse.Princess Wan'an was thinking at that time, why did the emperor put the seal in his sleeve just now, and suddenly said that he couldn't find it, and asked the people around him to look for it together. Later, he heard that it was for this, but he couldn't laugh or cry.

She had a good impression of Xia Sanlang, so she agreed to the marriage, and Xia Sanlang immediately agreed.The three princesses of the Holy Majesty all inherited the beauty of Empress Jingyi. Among them, the eldest princess is elegant and generous. When she was still in the Prince's Mansion, she was the white moonlight in the hearts of many sons and daughters.She and Tuantuan, who hadn't grown up at that time, were secretly called the royal twins.

As for Princess Wanhua and Princess Wanning, who are similar to her, although they are also beautiful, their temperaments are a little worse.One must know that in the past two years, the most lively thing in Chang'an City is that Qin Dalang committed another crime, and the Zhongguohou's mansion took to the streets to yell again. Later, other people also learned this trick and yelled Qin Dalang's fault on the street. Zhongguohou's Mansion simply changed to shouting "big reversal", "stunned", "you don't even know"...and then told everyone to go to a teahouse to listen to the storyteller tell the truth, go to There are quite a few people there; and another lively event is that the princess sneaked out of the palace again.

Although after the end of last year, the incident of Princess Wanhua leaving the palace was no longer happening, the common people discussed in private that perhaps the Holy Majesty acquiesced in the princess's leaving the palace.The common people guessed right this time. The Holy Majesty not only acquiesced in allowing Princess Wanhua to go out of the palace privately, but also acquiesced in allowing the daughter to inherit her father's career and let her go to the Ministry of Criminal Justice to disguise herself as a small official. No one except the Secretary of the Ministry of Criminal Justice knew about it.

Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice felt bitter. Every time Princess Wanhua almost let the real culprit go, or she was almost held hostage by the real culprit, he felt that he lost half his life.After finally sending away Prince Ji, who had a zero detection rate back then, and now Princess Wanhua is here again, the Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment is a little reluctant to do it.He had also reached the age of becoming an official. He just wanted to last a few more years and let his second son, Geng Jieqing, take his place. I believe that the current Holy Majesty should have the same intention.
