Chapter 1240 Come! Fight the landlord!
The sixth prince went to the Pingnan General's Mansion to propose marriage, and finally reached Emperor Tianwu's ears, which Zhang Yuan told him.
The old emperor was a little unhappy, "What's wrong, these kids are not going to marry now, but I don't have my consent? Shouldn't they marry anyone they want to marry? I'm not dead yet, so I have to make the decision?"
Zhang Yuan had no choice but to say: "Can you still have a good relationship? The Sixth Prince said that the emperor always feels a little forced to give marriage. How reliable is it to say that the kiss you said is!" As he said that, he pulled out two of the playing cards in his hand and threw them in the middle: "Three sevens bring one six." This is the gameplay taught to them by Feng Yuheng, called Doudizhu. Of course, Doudizhu has to play with three people, so the other seat is Yunfei.
Concubine Yun glanced at the cards that Zhang Yuan came out and threw out her: "Three nines and one seven." After playing the cards, she kicked Emperor Tianwu naturally: "It's your turn! Why don't that much nonsense? How old are the children? You can't make the decision after getting married? Waiting for you to point out your marriage, you don't even understand your own marriage, but you dare to point out your children? Don't cheat others! How good is the daughter of General Pingnan's family! She is both civil and military, and what's not worthy of your son? Whether it's appearance, character or family background, it's perfect match for your son. Just have fun secretly, what's the love? Play the cards quickly."
Emperor Tianwu groaned and looked at the card in his hand: "I can't afford it."
Zhang Yuan quickly chased after him and threw him again: "Three tens and one six." Emperor Tianwu glared at him fiercely.
"It's useless to glare at me." Zhang Yuan particularly agreed with Concubine Yun's words: "The Empress is right. Your Highness should be the master of your marriage. Concubine Yu also said that people should still have free love, so that they can live long and be harmonious with their husbands." He gave an example to the old emperor: "For example, before you met Concubine Yun, did you know what love is? Do you regret not living according to your own wishes? He married so many wives and concubines in a confused manner, but in the end he would not cheat himself. Therefore, the Sixth Prince's move is very wise, and he promised that the eldest daughter of the Ren family will be one person for a lifetime, and that the future king will take the lead in harmony with the husband and wife, and set an example for everyone in the world. Then what, Empress, you either? If you don't have a slave, you have to play cards again."
"No, you come out." Yun Fei answered solemnly. After answering, she wiped her face with an old fold. "I'm so annoying. I have to let Ah Heng come to the palace tomorrow. I want to take a look at Hua'er, and she will definitely have a solution."
Emperor Tianwu blinked, and he agreed. He also wanted to see his son. Although he knew that Hua'er was not dead, he kept holding his heart and couldn't let it go. "Xiao Yuanzi, let Lao Jiu and the others come to the palace tomorrow. Pianpian's medicine seems to be almost finished."
That night, the sixth prince also came to Emperor Tianwu in person and told Emperor Tianwu about his proposal to the General Pingnan Mansion. Although the old emperor was a little unhappy, he took the blame for his death and then reported, but seeing that the sixth son, who was clearly devoted to poetry and books, had to take on the burden of governing the country for the sake of great peace and for the sake of the world, he could not say those angry words.
After all, he sent his blessings. After all, the daughter of General Pingnan's family is really worthy of his son, and he is particularly satisfied. Originally, the most burden was that the women in the throne would rely on each other with their mothers to develop their own power, so all dynasties were very cautious about the candidates for the queen. Now, the sixth son who wanted to pass the throne chose the daughter of General Pingnan's mansion, and Emperor Tianwu could finally let go of his heart.
After coming out of Emperor Tianwu, Sun Rang said: "While the past few days, the adults have focused on the engagement of Your Highness. There are not many complaints on government affairs, so you should take a break and go to bed early."
But Xuan Tianfeng shook his head and turned around and walked in the opposite direction to Qiankun Palace. "Entering marriage is a big deal. I have to report to my father and mother."
When Sun Rang heard that Xuan Tianfeng was going to see Guiren Li, Sun Rang frowned, but even though he didn't want to go to Jingsi Palace, he couldn't stop him. After all, the mother of the Sixth Prince lived there. However, Sun Rang thought that Guiren Li was really an incompetent mother. Every time the Sixth Prince passed by, he would always make a fuss back. His Highness with such a good temper could be so angry that she couldn't sleep all night. I really don't know what the mother thought.
Today, Jingsi Palace is getting quieter day by day. Li Guiren set up a small Buddhist temple in Jingsi Palace. He locked himself in the Buddhist temple all day long, and did not recite scriptures or pay attention to Buddha. He moved a chair there to sit there for the whole day. Sometimes it was dark, and Zuo'er had to force himself to invite people out.
When Xuan Tianfeng arrived, Guiren Li was still in the Buddhist temple. He called outside the door several times, but no one inside responded. He pushed the door again, but the door was locked inside.
Zuo'er said to him helplessly: "Empress is always like this. If Your Highness doesn't come, you should come out now. It's probably because you are upset with Your Highness! Your Highness, Your Highness, still want to leave Jingsi Palace, or you can promise her that she can just go out for a walk and go around the garden. I am really afraid that if the nobles continue like this, they will become depressed and sick!"
Xuan Tianfeng sighed softly. Zuo'er understood this truth. How could he not understand? But he, his mother! Once he came out of Jingsi Palace, there would be another storm in the palace. He thought about it, stretched out his hand to cover the door, and spoke to the people inside: "Son can make the mother stop talking about this Jingsi Palace. Just ask the mother, are you willing to leave the palace and move to the Xianwang Mansion? The concubines in the harem have long been clear, and many people can't leave even if they want to leave. My son is now supervising the country and has some face in front of his father. If the mother wants to, his son will take you to the Xianwang Mansion. From now on, in the vast capital and even the world, wherever you want to go."
"I won't go anywhere! I'm in the palace." Inside, the voice of Concubine Li finally came, "I am the emperor's woman, why should I leave my home?"
Xuan Tianfeng was helpless. What kind of home is this? Even his father himself said that this is not a home, so why didn’t his mother understand?
Zuo'er shook his head slightly at him, signaling that no one could convince Guiren Li on this topic.
Xuan Tianfeng also understood this truth, so he changed the topic and said to the people inside: "Mother, I have a happy event to tell you today. My son has been engaged to the lady in General Pingnan's mansion. He has changed his post and has been employed. He is just waiting for his father to choose a day to get married. Mother, I wonder if you have any impression of the lady of the Ren family. He is a very good girl, generous, civil and military talent, and her mother's family is also the most loyal supporter of Dashun. She..."
"Stop!" The Concubine Li inside was angry, suddenly opened the door, pointed at Xuan Tianfeng and said loudly: "If you marry her, don't call me mother again! I don't have a son like you!"
Xuan Tianfeng was stunned, and then he remembered that when Guiren Li was making a fuss to jump into the river, it was Ren Xifeng who came to dissuade him, as if... the method was not very gentle. He had no choice but to persuade him again: "She was also for your own good at that time. He was a kind girl, and his son always thought his mother could understand."
"I don't understand!" Li Guiren shouted: "I just disagree! If you are determined to marry her, I will hit you and die in front of you!"
Seeing that the mother and son were in a stalemate again, Zuo'er quickly tried to smooth things over. Then she said to Guiren Li: "Master, this is not the final word for the Sixth Prince. The princes have always been granted marriage by the emperor, so how can they decide it themselves!" As he said that, he secretly blinked at Xuan Tianfeng.
Xuan Tianfeng actually didn't want to deceive Guiren Li, but he also understood that if he raised his mother's anger, something might happen again. So he had to nod and admit it.
Zuo'er said again: "Master, it makes sense for the emperor to give a marriage like this. After all, the General Pingnan Mansion is a family and a general who guards the country. Just based on the future prospects of our Sixth Prince, how can we not have a queen from this background beside us? So, Master, this marriage is for the sake of the overall situation and for the sake of the greatness. Master, don't worry, Master. The Sixth Prince is in this position, and this kind of thing is no longer something he can say."
Zuo'er's analysis also understood Li Guiren. Yes, the emperor had the final say in the prince's marriage, but she was really unwilling to let her son marry that woman. Li Guiren couldn't hear this tone in his heart, and his face turned red. Zuo'er kept helping her to follow her back and persuaded her, but Li Guiren suddenly moved her mind, stared at Zuo'er for a while, and then said to Xuan Tianfeng: "Since you can't make the decision by yourself, your concubine, your father can't control me?" After that, he pushed Zuo'er forward, "Write back and be a concubine, my son must have my people."
"Master, this..." Zuo'er was startled and was about to refute, but when he was about to say something, he swallowed it back and turned into two red clouds covering his cheeks. There was that person in her heart, but her status was low and she couldn't stand it. Now Li Guiren wants to give her to the Sixth Prince as a concubine, and Zuo'er doesn't want to lose this great opportunity. What's more, the Sixth Prince is the prince now, and maybe he will be the emperor soon. She will marry to be the concubine, and then when the Sixth Prince ascends the throne, she will be the imperial concubine. Her status will be different at once, and her fate will be completely rewritten from now on.
Zuo'er's thoughts were active, and she couldn't hide her excitement. She just didn't dare to look up at the Sixth Prince, for fear that her face would be red and bleeding.
Xuan Tianfeng didn't expect that Concubine Li would have such an idea. He looked at his mother in confusion, and after a while, he asked, "This maid is trying her best to serve you. I thought that after so many years, I should have cultivated some master-servant feelings. But he didn't expect that his mother's heart would be so ruthless."
Li Guiren was puzzled, "Why did I become ruthless if I gave her a position of imperial concubine?"
Xuan Tianfeng shook his head, "Do you want her to suffer the crime you have suffered in this life?" He looked at Zuo'er, saw Zuo'er's shy face, and sighed infinitely in his heart, "Zuo'er, look at the concubines in the palace, and then look at your master, are you still willing to be my concubine?"
"Don't bewitch her!" Li Guiren said, "I ended up like this now because of Concubine Yun, because your father only loves that woman, but you are different!"
