The protagonist’s halo
Chapter 134: Double jewel
Although Wei Guohou had been disarmed and returned to the field many years ago, his ancestors had served in the army for generations and had held hundreds of thousands of troops. His influence was not small among the people and the barracks, so he still attracted the respect of all the princes and princes.
It's just that Wei Guohou is too low-key and cautious on weekdays, and he rarely interacts with princes. If it weren't for the birthday of the princess Zhaohua, their aunt, they were afraid it would be rare for them to see the confidant side of the father's emperor in private.
The attitudes of the princes and princes were also very affectionate and did not show the slightest arrogance, but Wei Guohou still only dealt with a few words and hurriedly left, saying that he was going to the Chunhua Pavilion to accompany Princess Zhaohua.
King Wu, King Qi, King Han and others would naturally not say anything. This is the birthday of the aunt, and it is normal for Wei Guohou to be by her side.
King Han also sighed, "Wei Guohou and his aunt are deeply affectionate. I really envy others."
The other brothers also nodded one after another, but many people were full of thoughts. Wei Guohou was famous for loving his wives and children and his affection.
In the past, they also thought about trying to win over Wei Guohou in this respect, but the latter is like a seamless egg, very slippery, and there is no way to start. The marriage that Wei Guohou has set for his two sons is either from a clean family or with no real power. The daughter of the Hanlin, or the daughter of a great scholar in the south of the Yangtze River, almost put an end to any relationship with the prince's relatives, and let their shrewd and suspicious father rest assured that they wantonly reward the princess mansion.
Even they still have to respectfully flatter themselves, but when Wei Guohou was still in control of the army, how powerful he was.
The eldest princess still has a named daughter Qi Lingyan, and it's not that no one will hit her on her body, but hesitate to be a concubine or a concubine.
If you ask to be married as a concubine, and worry that Wei Guohou has no affection for this righteous daughter, and will not stand in line for her at all, then the position of a concubine who can win the alliance is wasted, and the gain is not worth the loss. If the side concubine is afraid of hurting her feelings again, the eldest princess's love for her righteous daughter Qi Lingyan will probably not let her be a side room.
Before they could think about it, the Princess Pearl Princess, the daughter of the Marquis of Weiguo who everyone thought had been killed, actually came back again.
But this is good news for all the forces who are interested in wooing Wei Guohou. His biological daughter, Wei Guohou will not hesitate, and he is still of marriageable age, if it is not revealed in the news that he recognizes it. The princess is a woman with big feet and martial arts, I'm afraid that the concubines and concubines in the palace who raised adult princes have already gone to blow the pillow wind and ask for marriage.
It's a pity that this single item can't even make it through the general election of ladies who choose wives and concubines for the prince. The Great Summer Palace pays attention to the appearance and morality, and the conditions are not met, and only those who are screened out are easy to be questioned.
King Han sighed regretfully, but didn't know that when Xiao Han returned to the princess's mansion, his father Emperor Qianming intended to get married again, if it hadn't been for Wei Guohou to insist on rejecting it once, everyone The prince and prince are only selected.
It has to be said that the King of Han, who himself and his mother's consort, Sheng Chong Longen, really overestimated his own status in Emperor Qianming's heart.
He still doesn't understand a truth, what rules, in the world, the emperor is the most unruly person.
Only those approved by the emperor became the rules.
King Han, who was still young and immature, was thinking about trying his best to win over every point that might become the power of his alliance. He could not marry himself, but he could also let someone close to him marry. A smile appeared on Han Wang Junlang's face, and he deliberately brought the topic to Wei Guohou's daughter Pearl Princess, "Why don't you see the cousin? The mother and concubine even mentioned it to the king in the palace, and I really want to see it."
Zhao Huaiting, who was left in charge of entertaining several princes and princes, gave a slight smile on the corners of his lips, "The little girl has a loose temper, and has not learned the etiquette and rules of the palace. I am afraid of impoliteness when I meet the nobles in the palace."
"It's okay. It's my family and doesn't need to pay attention to so many rules. Sister Yongjia wants to hold a poem meeting in Chunlin Bieyuan on the third day of the next month. Sister Yongjia has given the important task of the next invitation to this king. , Huaiting, you two can't help but go, and your cousin." Wang Han seemed to say with a very sincere smile.
Princess Yongjia ranks third among the emperors. She is the sister of the King of Han. She is also quite popular with Emperor Qianming. She is married to the son of King Pingguo. She loves banquets on weekdays and often organizes such social events. To the King of Han The benefit is not small.
Thinking of the time when he arranged several outstanding young talents in his camp to show off their talents at the banquet, and the cousin of the princess was raised in an ordinary home, she had never seen anything in the world, girl The spring heart moved, it was that Wei Guohou was reluctant to get involved in the battle for the conquest, and he would not be so cruel to ignore the wishes of his biological daughter.
When Qi Wang Zhao Di heard this, he remembered the occasional meeting at Daci Temple, which was not like what Zhao Huaiting said.
Although it was a rush, it still left him with a not-so-small impression. It was not at all like growing up in a rural area. Whether it was to deal with the criticism behind other ladies, or to point out his hiding place without mercy on the spot, All kinds of words and deeds can be proved, and the rumors in Beijing are not credible. He glanced at King Han again, fearing that King Han's positive thoughts would also be lost.
Zhao Huaiting smiled and said, "King Han's words are over. Princess Yongjia's banquet is hard to find in Beijing."
Zhao Huaiting did not accept King Han’s words, but he did not completely reject it. If the invitation from Princess Yongjia was delivered, he would still go if there were no other accidents. He still did not dare to override these princes. On the face of the princess.
Wu Wang, the oldest of the princes and princes, has always been good at martial arts, and doesn't really like coveted banquets, but at this time it is rare to say, "If my princess goes, he can also take care of the princess."
Han Wang: "..." Can he still say that she won't let the emperor make a post to Princess Wu.
With a warm smile on Zhao Huaiting's face, he thought in his heart, it seems that he still needs to say to his father that the younger sister's marriage should be arranged as soon as possible. How long has it been since I came back, so many people are staring impatiently. Regardless of whether it is an engagement or marriage, it is better to cut off the minds of other forces early.
With this thought, the mood is even worse. There was nothing in the past. Many people were staring at the marriage for his mother’s righteous daughter Qi Lingyan, but his attitude was the same as that of his father, only accompanied by a generous dowry. After he married, he had nothing to do with Weiguohou’s residence, and they would not. Who would stand in line for a righteous daughter adopted by his mother.
But now, his sister will become a target as soon as he comes back, and even a trivial matter is being used to fight. Zhao Huaiting suddenly felt that it might be right for the younger sister Yinghuan to be reluctant to show up.
The elder brother of the king above is playing the front line, but the other underage princes dare not say anything.
...
In the imperial palace, Emperor Qianming put aside his pen for reviewing zhezi, and the attendants next to him moved forward in time to gently massage his majesty to relieve fatigue.
After a long while, Emperor Qianming suddenly remembered, "Today is Zhaohua's birthday."
The maid-in-chief smiled, "In response to your majesty, yes, your majesty's gift has also been sent to the princess's mansion early."
"King Wu, King Qi, King Han and others are going too." Emperor Qian Ming seemed to be thinking about something, the hall was quiet, no one dared to make any noise.
The prince died that year, and the imperial court was cleansed for the rebels. Emperor Qianming used such a hand to firmly control the power of the imperial central government by himself, and also killed those who dared to covet imperial power. But people's greed for power and glory is endless. Even if suppressed for more than ten years, it will only reignite again, especially the princes underneath have grown up one by one, and ambitions have begun to grow, even those officials in the court. , There are a few who don’t want to post one from the dragon’s merits.
Maybe Emperor Qianming can believe in loyalty, only Wei Guohou.
But some things are not just trustworthy. With the emperor’s thinking, it is never that the person holding the knife will not slash it, but will try to remove his knife. The Emperor Qianming did this at the beginning, and there is guilt and compensation. But if you do the same thing again, Emperor Qian Ming can do it a second time.
It is one thing that Wei Guohou would not be involved in the struggle of the prince to seize the concubine, but Emperor Qian Ming hoped that everything would be under his control.
But there was an accident.
Emperor Qian Ming suddenly smiled again, "How about my niece?" There seemed to be something different in his tone.
"The princess doesn't seem to show up." The servant cautiously replied, Da Xia's spy is always watching all the troubles in the princess mansion. If there is anything wrong, I am afraid that many people will fall to the ground.
Since Emperor Qianming asked the spies to investigate in Nanyue, there has been some news in the past two days, but the news is too shocking. Even Emperor Qianming had to be more cautious. He wanted to make a final confirmation and think about how to treat Zhao Yinghuan. There is even Weiguohoufu.
I was even wondering whether things were really that simple. From Luzhou to Beijing to recognize relatives, the concealment of identity was just for the simple recognition of relatives and reunion, and I didn't plan to do anything else.
Emperor Qianming furrowed his brows and sighed, "Tomorrow, no, after today's birthday banquet in the princess mansion, please invite our niece into the palace to see you."
...
study,
Xiao Han made the last stroke on the snow-white rice paper. When the ink dries a little, she removes the jade pendant on her waist. The seemingly precious jade pendant actually contains the universe and nothing else. It is her personal interest as the crown prince of South Vietnam. Zhang, always took it with her, and Elder Han strongly requested that she had to take it even if she ran out.
In order to facilitate the portability, it is also specially designed to be like this.
Because the King of Nanyue has not been ill for a long time, her private seal not only represents the identity, but can even determine all important matters of Nanyue.
Xiao Han stamped this private seal on the last sign of the paper she wrote.
The maids outside the house were waiting anxiously. Both the eldest princess and Lord Hou urged them a few times. The princess hadn't come out yet, and they didn't let people go in and disturb them. Finally, it was only half an hour before the opening of the luncheon. Finally, when the princess came out, he seemed to be holding a rectangular sandalwood box in his hand.
The maid remembered that it was still in the morning when the princess asked her to find an empty box, and now there was something in it. The maid didn't dare to ask, but respectfully said, "Princess, let me hold it for you."
Xiao Han smiled faintly, "No, I just hold it, let's go."
Not long after leaving the Qingyi Courtyard, I met my eldest brother Zhao Huaiting by the garden pond. He was also walking with a few young men in luxurious clothes. Xiao Han saw King Qi, who had a relationship among them, and guessed it. Given their identities, they are nothing more than Daxia's princes and princes.
Zhao Huaiting had thought about the distinction between men and women and the distinction between inferiority and inferiority. It would be better to let the younger sister give way first, but King Han and King Wu were both his own family members, and there was no need to care about these.
King Han also smiled heartily, "This is the first time we have seen the cousin from Aunt Zhaohua's house. The king also prepared some meeting gifts, which are not expensive, but novel. Later, the attendant will give the cousin to the cousin."
King Wu also nodded, and said calmly, "The princess also prepared some, let me bring it, and also said to the king, cousin can go to this palace more often when she has time. The princess has a gentle temper and is very easy to get along with. of."
Wang Qi smiled and said nothing, he naturally brought it, and according to the impression that day, the gift was different.
The other young princes opened their eyes one by one. It turned out that in addition to giving gifts to the aunt’s birthday, they had to prepare this. Among them, the twelve-year-old and slightly stupid nine princes also directly said, "Do I also want to give gifts to my cousin? ?"
The nine princes and concubines are not favored, and the family of foreigners is also average. Although they will not be left out in the palace, they do not have much care. It is inevitable that they lack some thoughtfulness. The three grown-up elder brothers all laughed without saying a word. If they had a chance to win that position, they should be more at ease with this kind of stupid brother.
Zhao Huaiting was slightly embarrassed and touched his nose, "His Royal Highness Nine is joking." If all the princes gave the little sister a meeting present, then this reputation would be great.
Xiao Han smiled, "Since it's a meeting ceremony, do I need to return the gift?"
Of course it is not necessary, but the eyes of the Nine Princes are bright. To be honest, his small vault is not too much. Before he is an adult, he has no income from the enclave, but every time he comes out, he will send gold and silver things out. He is also very distressed.
His instinct told him that the cousin of the princess was rich, much richer than him.
Fortunately, the prince's reservedness made him hold back his words, otherwise the other young princes beside him would be farther away from him. But those shiny little eyes, coupled with the chubby figure, are a little more cute.
Xiao Han smiled, and said lightly and casually, "I'll give the Ninth Prince a meeting gift when I look back."
After all, the Ninth Prince nodded his head without holding back.
"Thank you cousin." The Ninth Prince also said obediently.
The others didn't say anything, at most they disliked the Ninth Prince in their hearts, and those who didn't know thought that the father and the elder brothers treated him harshly.
The Ninth Prince probably would think that he usually didn't see his father and brother take care of him and give him things.
No one would doubt that this little thing could get along with Wei Guohou's relationship, as Xiao Han was teasing a child.
And Xiao Han's words and deeds are also seen by everyone. I thought that she was a straightforward and martial woman, and her appearance should not be bad, but unexpectedly, even in the face of this vote of the prince, prince, and noble person, It is neither humble nor overbearing, not at all cramped, but not at all like the ordinary life of ordinary people living outside for more than ten years.
Even King Han, who had thoughts in his mind, was a little bit guilty and pondered. He is not stupid either, this cousin does not seem to have anything to do with being young and innocent.
Xiao Han didn't care at all, but she saw the seeming worries in Zhao Huaiting's eyes and asked directly, "You don't seem to be in a good mood."
Even though it was the younger sister’s concern, Zhao Huaiting was reluctant to say it, only shook his head and smiled, “It’s nothing, today is my mother’s birthday, how could I be unhappy.”
Xiao Han didn't ask much, "Then I ask you one thing."
She thought for a while, and handed the box to Zhao Huaiting, "Brother, please give it to my father and mother after the banquet."
Zhao Huaiting was somewhat curious, "Is it the birthday gift you prepared for your mother? What is it?"
Xiao Han smiled, "It's just some pen and ink."
Zhao Huaiting thought the younger sister was shy, so he was embarrassed to show it to his parents, so he readily agreed.
At the banquet, everyone finally saw the Pearl Princess.
Whether it is all kinds of rumors, or not showing up for a long time, everyone is curious.
But this appearance and demeanor is admirable. Although his demeanor and demeanor are not slow and slender, he is calm and unhurried, not at all like coming out of a small family. Either the rumors are false, or the princess took a lot of thought.
Princess Zhaohua, who was sitting on the main seat, saw her, smiled and greeted her to come closer, and took her hand to sit in the closest seat, without asking her why she had been delayed for so long, her smile was gentle and joyful.
Xiao Han had no interest in watching the excerpts and playing with wine, but he also sat patiently at the banquet with Princess Zhaohua for a long time, turning a deaf ear to the various meanings cast around him.
At the table for the lady lady, the county lord Anhe glanced at Qi Lingyan with a sneer. Even if she was in the limelight, she was just a guest, and in terms of status and the attention she received, she couldn't compare to the county lord at all.
Mrs. Kang Guogong also moved her mind. The princess may not be enough to be a grandfather, but she is compatible with her second son. Many shortcomings of the prominent status of a princess can be wiped out, and it is destined to be the glory and wealth of the future life. With the friendship between himself and the eldest princess, this marriage is not impossible.
There are many people who have the same thoughts as her.
...
After the birthday banquet was over, Princess Zhaohua still held Xiao Han's hand without letting go. Xiao Han smiled at her and said, "I will come back to see you and celebrate your birthday. Are you happy?"
Princess Zhaohua was a little puzzled, "Naturally she is happy."
Xiao Han asked again, "If you are happy today, will you be happy tomorrow?"
This seemed to be a riddle, and Princess Zhaohua was puzzled.
Xiao Han looked at her, smiling, with a gentle and calm smile, "You are my mother, you gave birth to me, and I hope you will be happy every day from now on."
"I never told you one thing, I have another name in the past ten years,"
"...Nan Yue, Xiao Lingyue."
