Chapter 154 The Will of Marriage (1 more)
"I've won, I've won, Tanhua! Tanhua!"
Tongfu read the imperial list and was excited to report the good news, and his face was overjoyed.
Tanhualang! The young master is hit by Tanhualang. Are you still worried about your future?
"Master, have you heard it? Did you hear it? My son is Tanhualang!" The second wife cried with joy in excitement.
Second Master also closed his eyes and his heart was brighter. Tanhua! Tanhua is already very good, great!
It seemed as if all the aggrievances had been wiped out this time.
"Master, madam, the top scholar is... Nie Mu!" Tong Fu said in a low voice, and after that, he glanced at Lin Yunlan.
At the beginning, the old man and the old lady wanted the second lady to marry into the Nie family, and it was Nie Mu. If so... the second lady is now the top scorer's wife, which is better than marrying into the Mo family to serve as a renewal for the concubine's son...
Of course, he only dared to think about this in his heart. No matter what, his master is now the master and wife of the second wife. In the future, the future of the second wife lies with the young master.
A newly released top scholar has no family background and wants to become a new high school, and has a long way to go. From now on, the Mo family is more beneficial to the young master.
"He is the top scorer? The old man is really unhappy." The second wife was happy and didn't care too much. She threw her usual generousness aside and said the words of the women in the city.
But I forgot to take care of my daughter's mood.
Lin Yunlan felt complicated for a moment and couldn't describe it. Unexpectedly, Nie Mu actually won the top scorer, haha... God is deliberately teasing her, but she doesn't let God and the people of the Lin family laugh at her, and she must not let them watch her own jokes.
The top scorer... So what about the top scorer?
It's just a little Nie family without power. Where can he go? The nobles of Kyoto gather...
"Lan'er, your brother is in high school. No one dares to underestimate us in the future." The second wife held her daughter's hand excitedly, and tears were still hanging on her face.
"Master, when will Zhi'er come back?"
"Oh, I'm confused. I'll take a car with you in Tongfu. Go back to my house. I'll be bad if the official sends a message to the news!" At this time, he was in the house to receive the wedding.
When Tongfu heard this, he repeatedly said yes, and the second wife hurriedly got on the carriage.
"When I go back to my house, everyone in the house will reward you. Don't worry, I've prepared the wedding money long ago." Fortunately, Zhi'er is so proud!
The second master finally let go of his eyebrows and smiled when he saw it.
As soon as the imperial list was released, everyone in the city knew it.
"Tanhua..." When the Lin Mansion learned the news, everyone had different expressions. It was the old man's face, but there was no expression, as if he hadn't heard it.
Lin Hongwei has three lists. He has come to report the good news and has also spread the good news at the door. One of them won. As a result, it was still good. The old man spoke and arranged for the family to have a meal together at night. He worked hard for several grandchildren and moved to Kyoto for the Lin family.
In addition, the old man also took the opportunity to announce that the Lin family was going to open academy, and then talked about the rules.
Tanhua and Lin Shuangyu didn’t have much contact with Lin Hongzhi, the second wife, but it was not too surprising. After all, the old man looked at him so much at the beginning, it was conceivable that he was definitely not mediocre.
However, it is a confusing to be able to study in high school, and it is unknown in the future.
It was Nie Mu who won the top scorer, and Luo Tianyou won the second place, which is worth congratulations.
Unexpectedly, I knew all three of you in the spring exam this year, and such luck is rare.
The emperor's intention was soon followed by some people.
This is to use these marriages to create a peaceful and stable world peace. The emperor is so smart.
They are all concubines. No matter which family they are, they will not try their best to help them, because it is very likely that they will make wedding dresses for others one day, because if they choose the main concubines for a few princes, they may only be their families, from other families, and they will not be able to resist such concubines after marrying them.
It is not easy for the princes to promise their concubines that they have any promises. The reason is the same. What if the concubine is a woman from several other families one day, can she really suppress the concubine and become the queen?
It's impossible!
So, the emperor is so smart! This marriage order is equivalent to solving the problems of the relatives of the princes. At least, in recent years, he will not have to take this into consideration and concentrate on court affairs.
For several major families, a concubine was a bit insulted, but everyone was the same and no one could say anything.
Besides, even if you marry into the royal palace like Mo Qingfeng, even if you are a concubine, the people below dare not look down on her. Apart from her status, they are no different from the official concubine.
Everyone knows that the position of this concubine is just a bargaining chip for the emperor to temporarily hold it in his palm.
At the same time, this also reveals an important message that the emperor now has no intention of establishing a crown prince.
In addition, there is the Xian King, who seems to have been completely abandoned by the emperor.
After the marriage is given, the pattern is almost certain, and the wedding date is not so noticeable. Apart from these weddings that have caused sensation in the whole city, it is just a palace trial discussion.
There is a reason why the emperor gave the marriage to Tanhualang alone. It is said that the emperor intended to marry the top scholar. Who knew that the top scholar refused in front of the court and the emperor in front of the emperor because he had a lover and wanted to get his lover's consent...
Some people who heard this couldn't help but be shocked. Isn't this an order? This top scholar is really a naughty person!
Of course, when I thought about it, this incident happened to the top scholar, which added some infatuation about love. Nowadays, men and women are very respected, and the emperor did not blame him, so he just acted as a casual chat.
I would have to be promoted by others and I might even write a play.
"Whose family is it?"
After hearing the palace's wedding decree, the old man didn't say anything for a long time and asked this question, but Chen Chang understood what the old man was asking.
His eyes moved, his eyelids drooped, and he said softly: "Miss Mo family."
"Mo family?" The old man stared at him, full of doubts. Why is it the Mo family again? Can these two houses not avoid the Mo family? Is it a coincidence or something?
There are so many ministers in this court, why did the emperor win the Mo family just by pointing it out!
"Yes, after hearing the news, I went to inquire. It was Mo Xiang's second granddaughter. This year, it was just fifteen years old...it was recorded in the name of the big house and was considered a serious lady."
.............
"remember?"
"Yes, the mother of this second lady is the good concubine of the Mo family uncle, Lord Mo, and she is also the official lady..."
Good concubine? The lady of the official family went to be a concubine. When the old man heard this, he couldn't tell anything. Why did the emperor ask for such a marriage? Maybe he didn't know the details. Generally, as long as the concubine is recorded in the name of the main house, he can be included in the genealogy. On the surface, it is no different from the serious and legitimate child.
"Master, why don't I go and inquire more..."
"No need, I said that from now on, the second house has nothing to do with my Lin family. Whether it is Tanhua or the top scholar, their wealth has nothing to do with our Lin family. You guys will remember it for me. If you are outside in the future, don't have any involvement with the second house. If I know..."
The old man's face was heavy and his eyes were stern.
The masters agreed immediately. The Fourth Master still remembered that the old man was so angry that he vomited blood when he came back from the second room that day, so he really listened to it.
"The third brother, you didn't do well in the exam this time. Don't blame him. The child has tried his best. He will study in the academy in the future. He will take the exam with his two brothers three years later. Don't put such pressure on the child."
"Yes, I've recorded it." The third master replied with a tense face. This loss was inevitable, but he also knew that it was useless.
"Brother Third, I'm just a little nervous and didn't perform well. Let's come back in three years."
The Fourth Master and the Fifth Master also comforted him, especially the Fifth Master, who was a little embarrassed. The two brothers' children were not won. The ones in their family were naturally happy, but... they were not good at performing too much, so as not to hurt the two brothers.
The third master nodded. It’s better, the fourth brother and Hong Xiu can think about it. The third brother can’t go here.
"Dad, don't worry, I'll go and tell Zheng'er a good talk."
The old man then breathed a sigh of relief. His son was able to think more easily, and his grandson was under less pressure. "There are still five days before the college opened. You guys are busy all the time. I'm afraid you will have to work hard these days."
"Dad, everything else is fine. It's the candidate to invite the banquet to attend the academy to unveil the plaque... My father decided as soon as possible."
If it were someone else's family, I'm afraid the post would be gone a month ago. There were only a few days left. Why isn't my dad in a hurry? They are not familiar with Kyoto. They can't decide who they want to invite and who they can.
"There is no banquet for guests, so you don't have to arrange it. However, when our Lin family returns to Beijing, we still have to hold a re-organization for the banquet. It's a little simpler. It's just a few old friends from the Lin family and your grandfather's family. We'll arrange it after the academy is opened. I'll ask Shi Tong to send it to you after the post. You don't have to worry about it."
The brothers nodded.
"Okay, it's nothing. Third brother, stay, fourth brother, fifth brother, go and do your business."
"Yes!" The other two brothers went out immediately, knowing that their father had something to say to their third brother, but why was the eldest girl still staying in there?
"Fourth brother, what does dad mean?"
The fifth master was holding it in his arms just now, and couldn't understand why the old master kept asking the eldest girl to stay by his side. What they said was the family business. Now my father stayed with the third brother and didn't let her leave yet...
"Fifth brother, don't worry. Dad knows what he is doing. He turns a blind eye to the big girl. You will know in the future."
My father is now treating the big girl as his grandson.
The fifth master looked dissatisfied. After a long time, he was pulled away by the fourth master.
Inside the house, the old man was straightforward and roughly told about what happened to the Liang Lin family a few days ago. Although these three wives were sent to the temple, they were still the wives of the third wife, and they had no reunion or separation. They also had children, saying that they had no relationship with the Liang family, how could it be possible?
"Dad? Is this true?" The third master took a step back. He could not have imagined that such things had happened.
The old man didn't say anything, and the third master wouldn't suspect that the old man was deliberately fabricating it. He still knew his mother-in-law a little and was a confused person.
It was a loss at the beginning, in order to save a few children, he thought of writing a letter to his mother-in-law to let her protect his wife, but he was also confused.
The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked. Isn’t the temper of my wife educated her mother-in-law?
"Last brother, if it weren't for the timely discovery this time, Xiao Wu would... Dad could not forgive the Liang family, and the Liangzi of these two families could not resolve it. At this point, the Liang family would definitely not be able to repair it with the Lin family again, so... You just blamed Dad for not considering your three bedrooms..."
"Dad, I was confused before. Fortunately, Xiaowu was fine, otherwise... I still have any face to enter the Lin family's door. Don't worry, Dad, I'm really old. I will tell him about this, and there are those two girls, and in the future, the grandfather's family will be gone."
The third master felt so uncomfortable! He failed to marry a wife, but instead...
"Uncle San, you are not blamed for this matter. It is because of his Liang family who bullies others too much. However... the fourth sister was still in front of her grandmother today and said to her grandmother and uncle..."
Lin Shuangyu finally spoke, and his voice was still gentle and slow. He was obviously a junior, but after saying this, the third master didn't think anything was wrong.
It seems that whatever she says is OK.
After suppressing the strange feeling in his heart, the third master looked a little angry. This big girl could stand here and talk to his uncle and grandfather, but his daughter was... so ignorant.
During this comparison, the third master suddenly felt a little powerless.
"The third child, the child is the future of our Lin family. Yue Yatou's temperament is a bit like her mother. You have to worry about it."
The third master was told that his face was a little uneasy. It seemed that his daughter knew what kind of virtue was, "Dad, my son must discipline him well."
"Grandfather, my elder brother just finished the exam, so he doesn't have to rush to study. Let him relax properly. We just came to Kyoto and the mansion was about to open a college again. We were busy. Why not let my elder brother and a few brothers help the uncles organize the academy together?"
