Rebirth of Xu Fanghua

Chapter 528 Wangfu Spring Banquet, Sanniang's Move

The Fanglin Banquet in the seventh year of Yuanqing was not the beautiful appearance of Princess Jinyuan and the talent of the envoys of Xiliang, but the chess skill that shocked the four people, so that the emperor deeply felt that it was detrimental to the national prestige, but finally lost to a small official of the Ministry of Ceremonies, who was allowed to be a lifelong Leyang lady.

Many noble children sighed, especially those young teenagers who were convinced by the talent and beauty of the women and returned despite the "generosity" of the family, fell into a long period of regret of losing their friendship with the beautiful women.

Meng Gao, who heard it, also followed closely and became the focus of the Kyoto nobles. The body of the eight generations of his ancestors were dug out and found that it was a veritable poor family. Not long ago, he was transferred from Bingzhou Xia County to the Ministry of Ceremonies. If there was no special opportunity, he was at most a five-grade Lang, and he was actually smashed by flying to Yanfu. The chess victory narrowly won the return of Xiliang's noble daughter and won the marriage of the emperor. Everyone concluded that Meng Gao's narrow victory was the most glorious thing in his life.

Yu Yu felt very strange. Qiao sent the public's recommendation of Meng Gao to join the ceremonial department was out of his instructions. He just thought that Meng Gao Zhongzhi had experienced some time in the Ceremonial Department, and it would be very appropriate to supervise the imperial examination in the future. He never thought that Meng Gao would become the focus person soon after he entered Kyoto.

But Meng Gao and Qiao Jizhong are both loyal and upright people. Because they can't reveal the secrets at the behest of the emperor, even if Yu Yu asks the two, they are also secreted.

It was still the third prince who generously solved his doubts and told the world's son about the gap between Xiliang Qing's father and son, full of enchanting lips: "Yuanyang, the plan of Qing's Lanjiang Gong, but let Leyang seduce you, intended to attract you to help them seize the throne. It's really funny. Do you think that my Dalong believer is so shallow? For many reasons, Leyang can't marry into a powerful family. He chose Meng Gao. I also know that he is your recommendation and won't hide it from you. He looks like he is taking care of the world's heart and courage.

Smoothly "blackmailed" an invitation to the spring banquet of the King of Chu.

In the face of the equally curious imperial concubine, Yu Yu wisely omitted Lanjiang's scheming and only told the contradiction between Yiyangjun and his father, saying that although Leyang's female monarch was born prominent and in a really worrying situation, she decided to stay in Dalong and was no longer controlled by the family.

Yi Jing sighed: "I thought that Xiliang's etiquette treated women broadly, but Leyang's birth was noble, and it was also so difficult to walk."

After all, under the oppression of kings, ministers, fathers and sons, Xiliang women, even if they are relatively free, they still can't escape the suppression of etiquette.

Most of the unreasonable nobles, speaking of this incident, admire Leyang's talent and words without regret, but there are also some narrow-minded people who treat others by themselves, mocking the rudeness of Xiliang's noble women, relying on their skills to climb to the nobles, but as a result, they were defeated by a humble official from a poor family. It's really their own fault. Take.

Su Liuniang, Duke of Wei, admired Leyang very much. She heard from the beautiful view that although Meng Gao was born in a poor family, she was upright and upright, and she was happy for Leyang's lady.

Most people are none of their own business, just chatting after tea and dinner.

Yiyangjun is really worried about Leyang. Although he agrees with this plan, once the dust is settled, because he does not know Meng Gao, he will inevitably worry about his sister's situation of marrying Dalong alone in the future.

"Although Meng Lang is a six-level official, his grade is very poor, and he is not dependent on his family. In case his career is not smooth in the future..."

"Brother is relieved. Although I intended to seek defeat that day, in fact, I was really driven down by Meng Lang. His chess skills are indeed not vulgar. I see him well-looking and his words are not vulgar. Although he comes from a poor family, he is generous and has no inferiority. Although he has no family to rely on, he has a teacher's help, and he is not an unlearned person. Even if I don't get rich, it won't make me hungry. At this time, the lady of Leyang softened and was no longer cruel. She sighed gently: "I don't want to be rich and noble. It's just a place to settle down. Someone really treats each other and doesn't worry about dying or marrying someone else."

But suddenly with tears in his eyes: "But I married Dalong far away, and I'm afraid that I can't see my mother again until I die. My father is ruthless. Just because my mother was born in the Yue family, I was estranged and coldly. My mother is weak and sick, and he doesn't care... Brother, my mother can only rely on you in the future. Leyang is unfilial, please brother..." Finally, he cried silently.

Yiyangjun gently hugged his sister's shoulder to comfort him, and his heart was also sad. For many years, their brothers and sisters did not have such a friendship. It was because of their father and brother, Leyang could only act obediently and even repeatedly against him in exchange for today's peace.

There are also angry people, that is Han Yangjun and Yingyang Lady, two of whom were sitting silently in the guest room of the State Guest House, one with a black face, and the other couldn't help falling down a tea cup to relieve his anger: "Little bitch, how dare to betray the Qing family! If there is still something to use her marriage to a powerful family, it turns out to be such an unknown sesame official... No, you can't let her take advantage of her wish. Emperor Dalong's marriage is also aimed at his courtier, and she can't be the master of my Xiliang Qing family!"

Han Yangjun gave a heavy meal: "Ying Yang! Calm down, we are in the territory of Dalong, and if the Qing family wants to win the throne, we can't do without the support of the Dalong Emperor.

Ying Yang actually cried with anger and beat his pink fist on the tea case, which made the tea tray jump a few times.

Han Yangjun knew that this niece was unhappy with Yue's eyes when she was a child, and he was deeply jealous that Leyang was more beautiful than her. Leyang would turn against her now. Yingyang couldn't wait to smash her body. His words of comfort were useless. He simply left and whispered with the accompanying staff.

This staff member is a close confidant of Lanjiang Gong. This time, he was asked to accompany him to assist his brothers in his actions and make friends with Dalong's powerful ministers. Unexpectedly, Leyang, who had high expectations, defected first and surrendered to the princess.

The staff believed that the princess had helped Yiyang Jun to seek a city and strongly supported Yiyang's membership in the three alliance political committee. Yiyang had long been subdued by the princess. Leyang is the sister of Yiyang's mother's compatriots. It is not inconceivable to have two minds. At present, the most important thing is not to cause a total loss for Leyang. If the Qing family opposes marriage, how can it? It's not that Emperor Dalong slapped him in the face, and it will become a fool's dream to seek Dalong's help in the future.

"If Leyang marries a nobleman, he will barely agree with the marriage between the two countries, but now he has married a son of a poor family... The princess will not let go of the situation to avoid marriage with the Qing family. In case Emperor Long let the daughter of an ordinary nobleman marry me..." Han Yangjun is worried. He knows his eldest brother's violent temperament, in case This time, I lost all the game, and it's hard to go back.

"This is a letter and handed back to Xiliang. First, we have to persuade Lanjiang to agree to Leyang's marriage. The letter is sent to the emperor of Dalong. In this way, in case we agree with our relatives, we can also plan to marry the daughter of Dalong's powerful minister... It's better to be the daughter of the clan! If he can make a plan, Yiyangjun returned to Xiliang and is still under the control of the clan, and he will also have some scruples. I think Yiyangjun promoted Leyang's marriage and made Lan Jianggong to put hope on him. After all, he is the legitimate son of the Qing family. Don't he want to ascend to the throne? If Leyang enters the palace of the King of Chu and Lanjiang's plan is successful, he will no longer support Yiyangjun's marriage with the princess. The staff sneered: "After all, Yiyangjun is young. How could you think that your majesty got up early to set up to make Jinyuan the crown prince. He did not intend to abide by the former alliance's direct daughter's succession at all, and the princess will certainly promote peace. In this way, Qing's eldest son is no longer qualified to marry him, and your majesty has a reason to make Jinyuan as the reserve."

"That's what we said, so we can't wait." Han Yangjun sighed, "As a last resort, I have to let Yiyangjun ascend the throne and plan slowly in the future."

"But what other options do we have now? Once Emperor Dalong is determined to make peace, if Qing refuses to marry, even if he retains the qualification of marriage and princess, how can he promote His Majesty to abide by the covenant and succeed his direct daughter? Your Majesty's means are so fierce that even his own son can be killed... It's hard to guarantee that he won't attack Yiyang. Without Dalong's help, is the Qing family sure to seize the throne through a coup?

Han Yangjun is as dull as a wooden chicken.

"So the key at present is that you must not offend Emperor Dalong to have the opportunity to plan the layout. I will write this letter, and I will analyze it well and let Lanjiang make a decision! Only by promoting the peace between the Qing family and the daughter of Dalong's powerful ministers and continuing to control Yiyangjun in the future, is it possible to persuade Emperor Dalong to help our Qing family seize power through the family of the daughter of the marriage. The staff made a decision.

Han Yangjun deeply believes that this is the only way.

He never thought that this staff was the cote of Xue Guoxiang's placement in the Qing family from the beginning. Naturally, all plans were in accordance with the steps of the Prime Minister and the King of Xiliang. Naturally, Lanjiang Gong was analyzed by the staff, and naturally there would be no other choice.

Lanjiang Gong is far away from Xiliang, and his handwriting naturally did not arrive so quickly. In mid-April, the spring banquet of the King of Chu was held on time. Naturally, he invited Princess Jinyuan, a distinguished guest, as well as many family members of the clan and famous families, and its grandeur was not inferior to the Fanglin banquet.

This is inseparable from the "merit" of Xiao Xie.

Because of the existence of the third uncle Xie, who is like a blood-sucking bat, Xiao Xie's heart trembles with the continuous flow of money, and intercepts the limit in the use of the inner house. How can it inexplicably increase consumption without a banquet? Finally, I got a chance. How can Xiao Xie let go easily? Although the dishes and refreshments have to be handed over to the Royal Restaurant, such as decoration of flowers and plants, tableware addition, menu and tea details, tables and chairs, brocades, tents and utensils, etc. still have to be bought by Xiao Xie's list of the host.

The more guests are, the more considerable the oil and water are. The warehouse account book is in Xiao Xie's control. She is determined to take the opportunity to make a fortune.

If you want to entertain Princess Xiliang, of course, the scene should not be too lonely, so both Yijing and the old princess have no objection to Xiao Xie's suggestion of inviting guests.

After all, it is a banquet in the king's house of Chu. Although it should be handled by Xiao Xie, the imperial concubine still has to invite a few of her own guests. Naturally, the Duke of Wei is indispensable. It is not like the palace banquet, and the concubine's daughter can't attend. This time, San Niang and Ba Niang, who are still waiting to be married, are also among the invitations.

Because the princess is not as good as the ordinary boudoir and is the chief envoy of the Western Liang Dynasty, it is not appropriate to only invite the female family, so Yu Yu came forward and invited several princes and many noble children.

The couple did not expect that such a spring banquet would be used by people with intentions and almost caused a disturbance.

The originator is not an outsider, but the third sister of Yijing.

Sanniang finally looked forward to being removed, and she was worried that the marriage would be put on the agenda. She couldn't wait to send a letter to the "internal response" Concubine Ning of the third prince's mansion. A year later, Concubine Ning was busy plotting with Concubine Kong, and had to guard against the Qianpan girl who was taken into the third prince in the study and could not even see her. She had left San Niang in the ninth night. Outside the clouds, when I received the letter, I suddenly realized it.

However, at present, it is no longer comparable to the beginning. Even the emperor's marriage of the third prince has been delayed according to his wishes. Su Wuniang, who was regarded as a great trouble by Concubine Ning, has become the concubine of the king of Chu. No matter who the third prince's concubine fell, Ning thought it was not a threat. She wanted to put aside the third mother's letter of help, but on second thought about it, since the saint When Shang En sealed Princess Longqing, the queen was very worried. If she could marry the third prince and the Duke of Wei, it would undoubtedly win a good help for the prince. The queen will definitely remember her credit and only protect the Concubine of her clan in the future.

In addition, she can help Sanniang. When she becomes the mistress, she will also feel her friendship. With the help of the imperial concubine, Concubine Kong is not afraid.

However, there was a lesson that Wei Mingyu's "proposal" but was rejected in public, and Concubine Kong was banned for stabbing a beautiful scene. That Li... was also a bloody lesson. Concubine Ning did not dare to act without authorization and specially asked the queen first.

"I can't help Sanlang fooling around. No matter how unwilling he is, Su's fifth wife has become someone else's wife... The emperor also indulges him." The queen sighed and thought carefully: "The Duke of Wei is not as ordinary. It has to control it. Don't make things impossible. In case Sanlang commits stubbornness and refuses to marry again, it will completely offend the Duke of Wei. You can only help a helping hand in this matter, and you have to let Su Sanniang think about it by herself. At all, we can't let the Duke of Wei hold a grudge.

This is the agreement, and Ningfei resumed her correspondence with Sanniang.

Sanniang racked her brains, but she didn't think of a thorough way. At this time, she received an invitation from Yinjing in person, and learned from Concubine Ning that the third prince would also go to the banquet on that day. Her heart beat like pounding and pressed the invitation tightly on her chest.

You can only make a desperate bet, and you must seize this opportunity! Sanniang made up her mind secretly.
