Chapter 383 Jiang Xin's Marriage

At that time, Zhang Daokun was imprisoned, starting from Gu Jinzhi's kidnapping case.

It is suspected that his kidnapping of Gu Jinzhi is not the internal reason for his imprisonment.

Since the emperor deliberately imprisoned him, he stayed for a few months to kill him, which shows that Zhang Daokun is still a little valuable.

Hearing the news of Jiang Liang's triumph, the first thing the emperor did was to destroy the Zhang family. The value of the Zhang family has been used up, which is self-evident.

These things are related to the overall situation of the society. If Zhu Zhongjun inquires randomly, once he is known by the emperor, he will be on guard.

Zhu Zhongjun didn't dare to walk around again.

He and Gu Jinzhi are waiting to return to Luzhou.

Zhu Zhongjun can't wait to leave the capital. Only when he leaves the capital can his heart calm down.

For those who wander in the stormy waves, what they need most is to have a calm harbor. Stop and rest first, and then take a breath before there can be revenge. This is Zhu Zhongjun's mood at this moment.

But there can't be no one in Beijing.

In case of any change, a courtier needs to speak for Zhu Zhongjun, and someone needs to inform him.

So two days before leaving, Zhu Zhongjun secretly visited several ministers overnight.

On the afternoon of the 19th lunar month, Gu Jinzhi was still talking to the Gu family.

Relatives and friends in the family know that she will leave Beijing tomorrow and come to say goodbye.

The eldest aunt also came with everyone.

Gu Jinzhi was surrounded by everyone and said some polite words to them with a smile.

In the afternoon, seeing that it was getting late, everyone got up and said goodbye.

Gu Jinzhi and Song Pan'er sent everyone to the gate.

When everyone left, Song Pan'er asked Gu Jinzhi, "Do you want to eat here in the evening?"

Zhu Zhongjun didn't come back. He went out in the morning.

Gu Jinzhi said good.

When eating in the evening, Song Paner tried to make the atmosphere better, but everyone was unhappy. Song Yanzhao was also present. He saw that Gu Yanzhen and others were not energetic. Thinking that Gu Jinzhi was leaving tomorrow, it was not appropriate to say anything to adjust the atmosphere, and then he was silent.

"...When will the prince come back?" Gu Yanzhen was depressed and didn't know what to ask. He picked up a sentence and said it casually.

He asked Zhu Zhongjun several times when he would come back.

Gu Jinzhi had to tell him again: "I told him to come back for dinner, and I guess he will be back soon."

"What did he do?" Gu Yanzhen asked again.

"I don't know, Dad." Gu Jin's way.

Song Pan'er took a heavy look at him.

Gu Yanzhen also felt that he had asked more than once, and stopped the topic.

After dinner, Zhu Zhongjun still didn't come back.

Gu Jinzhi called Haitang and asked her to go back to the palace of the palace to see if Zhu Zhongjun had arrived home. Begonia came back and said, "The prince has just arrived home. The prince said, I don't know if the dinner here has been used, so it's not easy to come here rashly. If the meal is over, he will come to pick up the princess..."

Begonia went over and invited him. Zhu Zhongjun must have known that he had eaten here.

He didn't come and said such a lot of polite words, which shows that he didn't want to come.

Song Pan'er and Gu Yanzhen met each other and didn't think much about it. They said to Gu Jin, "Go back and don't wait for the prince to pick it up. We are leaving tomorrow. Have a good rest..."

Gu Jin's way is.

Gu Yanzhen led Brother Xuan to send Gu Jinzhi.

Crossing the corner door, Gu Jinzhi said goodbye to his father and brother, and let the maid lock the corner door.

When he arrived at the royal palace here, Gu Jinzhi said to Haitang, "Thank you for covering it up for us..."

Zhu Zhongjun didn't come back at all. Before coming to Gu Zhai, Gu Jinzhi told Begonia to help cover it up.

Zhu Zhongjun has been very busy these days. He didn't come back until after last night. I'm afraid it's the same today, so Gu Jinzhi prepared for a rainy day.

Begonia smiled and said, "Madam, let me serve the princess. The princess is the master of Begonia. Begonia will do what you told me to do, and I can't thank the princess.

Gu Jinzhi said nothing more and took Begonia to the main courtyard.

Sure enough, when the bell rang, Zhu Zhongjun secretly went home.

Gu Jinzhi didn't sleep.

She did not disturb the maid. She helped Zhu Zhongjun change his clothes and wash him in person.

"Is it done?" Gu Jinzhi asked him.

Zhu Zhongjun put a warm veil on his face and said, "It's not done. Those who are willing to take bribes are greedy for money and are afraid of death. When we have to be spoiled and rich, they will naturally help me; once we are depressed, there will be nothing left..."

Gu Jinzhi doesn't ask more questions.

The next day, Gu Jin woke up early.

She called Zhu Zhongjun to get up.

The couple cleaned up, had breakfast, and went to Gu's house first.

After kowtowed to Gu Yanzhen and his wife, the two went to the palace to say goodbye.

The Empress Dowager was fine at the beginning. She told them to be careful on the way, live a good life in Luzhou, and add words to Tianding as soon as possible. He also told Gu Jinzhi to love Zhu Zhongjun and be good to Zhu Zhongjun; he also told Zhu Zhongjun to be considerate of Gu Jinzhi and not to make trouble for Gu Jinzhi.

After saying a lot, the emperor went down to the court.

Yu Linwei has already been waiting at the Meridian Gate.

The emperor also told a few words as usual.

His eyes couldn't help looking at Gu Jinzhi's face. His expression was gloomy for a moment, and then he smiled and said to be careful on the road.

Zhu Zhongjun and Gu Jinzhi knelt down and thanked him.

The two turned around and went out, and their backs gradually disappeared at the gate of Renshou Palace. The Empress Dowager's tears suddenly became blurred, and her eyes became blurred.

She turned around fiercely and quickly stepped into the inner hall.

The emperor personally sent Zhu Zhongjun and his wife to the square in front of Taihe Gate.

The prince's elephant rut has long been waiting.

More than 30 Yulinwei were followed by the surroundings.

Zhu Zhongjun held Gu Jinzhi's hand and served her in person. For elephants like this, the rule should be that Zhu Zhongjun went up first, and then Gu Jinzhi was served by his servants.

The emperor saw that Zhu Zhongjun was so humble in front of Gu Jinzhi and looked at Zhu Zhongjun more.

Zhu Zhongjun smiled and didn't care.

He saluted the emperor again, and then he got into the elephant.

The elephant slowly set out from the Taihe Gate.

From the Taihe Gate, pass by the Royal Bridge and arrive at the Meridian Gate.

Out of the Meridian Gate is equivalent to leaving the palace.

Eight horse-drawn elephants walked quickly and arrived at the end door in a moment; after the end door, it was the Chengtian gate. Out of the Chengtian Gate is equivalent to leaving the imperial city.

The emperor stood in the square in the Taihe Gate and did not move for a long time.

It is still cold in the capital at the end of the first month. There is no wind today, the chill has eased a little, and the emperor doesn't feel a chill.

He didn't recover until the eunuch around him called him.

He turned back to the imperial study.

The eunuch presented a fold to Liang.

The emperor opened it and saw that it was about the triumphant army of Annan. In another four or five days, Yuanpinghou will arrive in the capital.

How to reward the Marquis of Yuanping, the emperor already has a plan in his heart.

The command of Jinyiwei is the same, and it was originally two people. One is Tan You and the other is Zhang Daokun.

The emperor has never killed Zhang Daokun. He did not fantasize that the Zhang family could rekindle, but to calculate Zhang Daokun's position. As soon as Zhang Daokun died, the Jinyiwei commanded Tongzhi's position. Someone must seek it, and the emperor will also be in a dilemma.

So, he kept Zhang Daokun until today.

Now, the position of the Jinyiwei commander Tongzhi has been vacied, and the son of Yuanpinghou can be accommodated.

Yuanpinghou only had two sons, both of whom were taken to the battlefield by him. Regardless of the feelings of the small family, this defense society should try its best to reward and give the courtiers an example.

"I should be able to get to the capital on the 25th." The emperor himself pondered.

Annan's Rebellion Army can enter Beijing on the 25th day of the first lunar month.

The emperor thought for a moment and got up and went to Renshou Palace.

"Queen Mother, Zhongjun and Xiaoqi left Beijing. You are in a bad mood. It's my unfilial piety..." The emperor said, without waiting for the Empress Dowager to say anything, he continued, "Why don't you invite Miss Jiang to the palace to accompany you to relieve boredom?"

The Empress Dowager paused in her heart, and her face was calm. She smiled and said, "It's okay. The girl of the Jiang family has also seen her several times. She is dignified and virtuous, and the Ai family likes her very much. Let Minghui also come. I haven't talked to Minghui for a long time..."

The eldest princess of Minghui is the eldest sister-in-law of the Empress Dowager.

In those years, the Empress Dowager's mother in the world, the eldest princess of Minghui made a lot of efforts.

After that, she went to Yanling Mansion quietly for a few years, and the two of them gradually became estranged.

The Empress Dowager vaguely guessed the reason why Princess Minghui left Beijing, but she didn't want to break it. It's good for everyone to know something.

The emperor smiled and said, "I haven't seen Aunt Minghui for many days. In terms of discussion, Yuanpinghou is my aunt's cousin, and the second lady of the Jiang family is my nephew. After the mother, the second lady of the Jiang family hasn't left the cabinet yet. I'm afraid there is no suitable person, right?

"Does the emperor want to protect the second lady of the Jiang family?" The Empress Dowager asked.

The emperor smiled and said, "The second lady of the Jiang family is almost seventeen years old. The Jiang family didn't marry her, but they were afraid that there was a reason. Wait for the Marquis of Yuanping to return to Beijing and discuss with him. Mother, what do you think of Xu Qin beside me? I'm his uncle, is he worthy of the Jiang family?

Xu Qin is the commander of Jinyiwei, the first person around the emperor.

The emperor trusted him the most.

Xu Qin had achievements in his early years. At that time, he was not awarded the title, but the emperor felt that the time was not good.

If there is a title, what else does Xu Qin pursue? What should the emperor do to inspire him in the future?

That's why I stayed until today.

It's not appropriate for the emperor to be a matchmaker himself.

He wants the Empress Dowager to be a matchmaker.

The Empress Dowager hesitated.

Jiang Xin is not beautiful, but she is also a lovely young girl. Xu Qin, the commander of Jinyiwei, is almost thirty years old, tall and dark and taciturn. Whether it's appearance or family, it's not worthy of Jiang Xin.

Jiang Xin is the granddaughter of the princess, the daughter of the marquis, and the real daughter of the Wang clan.

Will the Jiang family be happy?

As soon as the Marquis of Yuanping came back from winning the battle, the emperor was afraid that he would be powerful. Before he arrives in Beijing, he has to try his best to suppress him.

These are all imperial strategies.

The Empress Dowager said, "Lord Xu has been with your majesty for many years and has made great contributions. Jiang Xin is the second daughter of Yuanpinghou, and Lord Xu is a talented woman..."

She agreed to do this for the emperor.

The emperor's face was full of relief.

After explaining clearly, the emperor went out of the Renshou Palace.

The Empress Dowager immediately asked someone to go to the Jiang family to pass the order and asked the eldest princess Minghui to take Jiang Xin to the Renshou Palace tomorrow.

After ordering, the Empress Dowager's heart flew back to Zhu Zhongjun and Gu Jinzhi.

They just left. I don't know if they have left the capital...

Next time I go to Beijing, I'm afraid I'll have to wait until the end of the year.

The Empress Dowager sighed silently, blocked a stone in her heart, and couldn't get down.

She is too reluctant to give up Zhu Zhongjun and Gu Jinzhi.
