Love Like the Galaxy - Chapter 144

    For a long time, Shaoshang scratched his cheeks, and then slowly walked to Changqiu Palace. When she saw the palace servants and eunuchs who came to greet her, she habitually put on a warm and lovely smile – familiar The palace has different decorations. Shao Shang still didn’t get used to it after so many years, but when she saw the emperor’s family of three sitting in the middle of the inner hall in an inverted shape, the maids and eunuchs were not visible to the left and right, and even Cen Anzhi was not there, so she stood up. Covered with hairs, he was ready.

    The old man sat in the middle, with a golden sword, his hands on his knees, his left earlobe was a little red; Kodan; the third prince, oh no, the new crown prince is sitting behind the emperor on the left, with a scroll of bamboo slips in his hand, I don’t know if it is a memorial or a classic.

    After the little businessman finished the ceremony, he looked carefully at the three couples who had a strong sense of oppression, and finally his eyes fell on the Queen of Yue – the Queen Mother Xuan has aged like the leaves in autumn, but the Queen of Yue is like Rich and rich like blue waves and spring water, the complexion is getting deeper and deeper.

    She is a little uncomfortable.

    The emperor waved to her with a smile: “Sit close, I have something to ask you.”

    Shao Shang felt that the old man smiled like a wolf grandpa, and he became more and more vigilant, and only dared to move forward half a foot.

    The emperor asked: “How is the health of the Queen Mother of Huai’an these days?”

    Shao Shang glanced at Empress Yue: “Reporting to Your Majesty, it’s better than before Zhengdan, but still weak and weak, unable to eat… These concubines told the Empress yesterday.”

    Although the old man is very concerned about his ex-wife, but after all, he has a serious job and can’t care about it everywhere, so it is inevitable that the young merchants have to report to the Queen of Yue the situation of the Queen Mother in recent years.

    After saying this, the Empress Yue snorted twice, the Prince snorted coldly, and the Emperor stroked his beard: “Did the Empress Dowager Xuan say that her body is like the words of Emperor Xuan?”

    Shao Shang sighed: “Every time I get sick, I say, and also said that Xuan Taigong also had these diseases at the beginning – they were all useless concubines, and they didn’t take good care of the queen mother.” I can’t figure out what it is, the ancients were very neat from illness to death.

    The emperor smiled wisely.

    Empress Yue snorted again, the prince followed with a snort, the emperor ignored them, and suddenly said: “I heard that the king of Donghai has not visited the queen mother in Yong’an Palace since Zhengdan. How is this going.”

    Shao Shang seemed at a loss: “Has it been so long? Yes, why hasn’t the East Sea King come for more than a month.”

    The emperor hung the corner of his eyes: “In your opinion, is it because the East Sea King is in a bad mood…”

    “No, since the King of the East Sea became the King of the East Sea, the concubine seemed to be more comfortable than before. Last year, I went to the mountains with the second princess and his wife to cool off in the mountains. When I came back, my heart was wide and my body was fat, and the clothes that the empress made for Her Highness had to be changed again.” Shao Shang’s eyes were naive, and he continued to pull.

    Empress Yue became impatient: “Your Majesty, I can’t paint this Kodan myself. You and Shaoshang speak slowly, and I will leave first.”

    The new crown prince and his mother have the same emoji: “Father, if there is nothing wrong, the son will retire first, there are still many things…”

    “Don’t make trouble!” The emperor waved to his wife and children behind him like chasing flies, “No one is allowed to leave, let me listen honestly!”

     Turning back, the emperor slapped his leg at Shaoshang and said, “Little girl still wants to fool me! Say, what did you say to the king of Donghai more than a month ago, it scared him I rolled off the top of the Yongan Palace and broke my forehead!”

    The prince was interested, and looked at the girl with a bowl of buttermilk: “The injury on the eldest brother’s head is because of you?”

    “Have you faded?” Queen Yue said in surprise.

    “No no no, how dare a concubine!” Shaoshang waved his hands in fright, “I borrow a hundred courage from a concubine, and a concubine can’t do anything with His Royal Highness the East Sea King!”

    “You didn’t do anything, you moved your mouth!” The emperor patted his leg again, “You still don’t tell the truth!”

    Young businessman has no choice but to tell the truth, “Actually, the concubine didn’t say anything, just told His Highness that you don’t have a princess anymore, why don’t you marry a concubine…” She I still remember the expression on the face of the King of the East Sea at that time, even if he met demons and ghosts, it was nothing more than this – what a shame!

    Before the words were finished, the Empress Yue giggled, and the new prince almost spit the buttermilk in his mouth.

    Concubine Yue smiled and leaned forward and back, pointed at Shaoshang and said, “Did the Queen Mother say that she is not in good health and wants to see you get married before leaving?”

    Shao Shang nodded awkwardly.

    The prince wiped the buttercream from the corner of his mouth, and said in exasperation: “How can you say such a thing to a little girl! The Queen Mother Xuan asked you to marry, and then you went to propose to your elder brother! How are you? , is really decisive and decisive, without any hesitation!”

    The emperor continued to wave at the back: “Don’t talk to both of you, I haven’t finished asking… Shaoshang, after you said that, what did Zikun say?”

    Shao Shang’s face was like a leftover green banana peel: “His Royal Highness Donghai King didn’t have time to speak, he fell off the rank, then ran away with his forehead covered, without talking to the empress Goodbye, they said they were going back to get wounds.”

    The emperor couldn’t help laughing: “Then do you think Zikun is willing to marry you?”

    “It seems that she is reluctant.” Shao Shang admitted embarrassedly, “…but why is this? After getting married, the concubine can continue to take care of Yong’an Palace and reassure the Queen Mother of her Highness. The concubine thinks this marriage is very suitable!”

    “What is suitable! If the eldest brother marries you, he will not even be able to lift his head up if he is not bullied by you!” The new prince almost spit, “I disagree with this marriage!”

    “The concubine will not bully the King of the East Sea! The concubine is a person with a good heart, and everyone in the Yongan Palace said so!” Shaoshang was very indignant.

    “You are even more disrespectful than the Sun family, and the eldest brother will have a few bones left!”

    “East Sea King’s bones will be fine!”

    Empress Yue fell on the table with a smile.

    “You all shut up!” The emperor shouted – he finally understood why the voice of Cheng Shaoshang’s ex-wife was getting louder and louder.

    After taking a deep breath, the emperor said solemnly, “Young businessman, does Yuan Shanjian know about this?”

    “I know.” Shao Shang murmured, “He heard that King Donghai had hurt his forehead, so he came to ask me, and I told the truth.”

    “He’s not angry? He has told me everything.” The emperor was very interested, “He also said that he would go to your house to propose a marriage in a few days.”

    “The concubine is not angry yet, why is he angry.” Shaoshang rolled his eyes in his heart. “At that time, my concubine planned to spend a few years in Yong’an Palace quietly, and then make plans when the weather calms down. Who would have thought that Yuan Shan would see all the commotion, and Mandu City knew that he was going to break off the marriage. Although he didn’t tell me clearly, But he runs to my house four times a day, don’t the Cai family know?! The parents and mothers who have been hurt will go around when they see the surname Cai in the past few years. Alas, pity that they have been kind to others all their lives, but because I almost became enemies with the famous Cai clan – Under such circumstances, if I dare to marry him, I will **** the Cai family’s marriage with an open flame!”

    She can’t marry into the high door happily and let her family become a big enemy

    The emperor smiled and said: “I also blamed Shanjian for running to Yong’an Palace all day long, but Shanjian said that he was afraid that you would marry someone else without waiting for him to settle the previous affairs.”

     Shaoshang defended: “Now, Young Master Yuan and the Cai family have cleared up their suspicions, but they were still in the same situation more than a month ago. Concubine, concubine naturally has to find another way out…”

    “It seems that Yuan Shanjian is not worried.” The new prince mocked.

    Empress Yue continued to lie on the table and smirk.

    “The concubine really thinks this marriage is very good.” Shaoshang still struggled to himself, “His Royal Highness the East Sea King is too hurt!”

    The emperor smiled and said: “Young businessman, I’m here to tell you. The first one Zikun likes is Qu Lingjun, who understands righteousness and complacency, and the latter is the Sun family. Do you think you are with them? Which one looks like?”

    “Mrs. Qu is just fine, the concubine is a bit stronger than the Sun…” Shaoshang muttered.

    “You’re wrong!” the emperor said, “How can Sun’s actions not be exposed in ten years, Zikun can tolerate her for ten years, will there be no affection in it?”

    It was the first time that Shao Shang heard this kind of remarks, and he opened his mouth wide: “No way, Mrs. Sun’s character…” She couldn’t continue.

    The emperor said: “Yes. In the eyes of the world, the Sun family is of inferior character and shallow and ignorant. It is difficult to guarantee that Zikun has no pity for her.”

    Shao Shang was surprised and speechless for a long time, but thinking about it, it seemed to make sense.

    “Okay, let’s get down to business… Ah Heng, stop laughing, I’m going to get down to business!” The emperor glared at the back in dissatisfaction, “Shao Shang, there is something I need to let you know, Zi Sheng. Great service at the frontier…”

     Not only did he save a lot of food, grass, soldiers and horses for the imperial court, but he also dispatched an extraordinary army from Longxi in the battle to recapture Shu land last month to assist the generals in encircling the tyrant king, which can be described as an outstanding feat!”

    Shao Shang bowed his head and listened without saying a word.

    “If you really agree to the Yuan family’s marriage, I will immediately spread the matter to the northwest.” The emperor said, “Zisheng has been in the military for many years, and he has already overcome his previous sins. He must be rewarded greatly. Moreover, he is not too young, and he is the only one left in the Huo family… At that time, I will strictly order Zisheng to choose a wife, get married, and spread the branches. You can think clearly!”

    Shao Shang raised his head and said with a smile: “It turns out that the land of Shu has been leveled, and the news has not yet spread. Concubine congratulates Your Majesty for the unification of the world.”

      Not to mention. I don’t know where the wedding ceremony of Lord Huo will be held. If it is in the capital, there is no doubt that the concubine will bring her husband and son-in-law to the banquet together.”

    The emperor looked at the girl directly: “Have you really figured it out?”

    “Your Majesty, the concubine figured it out five years ago.” Shao Shang kowtowed again.

    Shao Shang thanked himself, and then bowed his head and retired.

    Empress Yue finally stopped laughing and looked at the threshold where the girl left: “The Empress Dowager Xuan always said that she looked cunning and cool, but in fact she had a pure heart. At that time I didn’t know why, but now I just understood.”

    The new crown prince agreed: “The mother said that since the eldest brother resigned from the throne, the courtiers and the family are quite afraid, and the son wanted to say a good marriage for the eldest brother. It’s really hateful to push back and forth!”

    Empress Yue rolled her son’s eyes: “Then you were mocking Shaoshang just now.”

    The prince sighed with a rare sigh: “She is pure and sincere, and the feasible facts are outrageous. Yuan Shan sees that a person with seven orifices and an exquisite heart, how can he like her? !”

    “You said this five years ago, it’s a cliché!” Queen Yue complained, and then sighed, “Oh, what a stubborn and silly child who doesn’t leave the Golden Avenue with flowers and brocades. , I have to find another way out, really…” She was a past person, how could she not figure out the reason.

    The prince sneered, and slammed the bamboo slips scroll, with a clear and smart face: “Mother is right, Cheng’s is not enlightened! Zisheng is so talented and beautiful. Talented, high-class women from the northwestern Zhucheng flock to him, crying and shouting to lead the horse and saddle for him! The year before Zisheng presided over the grand ceremony of the Shangsi Festival in the border town, the little girls almost pushed Cui Hou and his son into the river. As long as the son Sheng nodded, what kind of beautiful, gentle and virtuous lady do you want!”

    “Why didn’t that Zisheng find some beautiful, gentle and virtuous people?” The emperor suddenly said.

    The prince immediately became discouraged, and sighed helplessly: “…because Zisheng is also an uneducated person.”

    The Empress looked at each other with a smile.

    Immediately, the unyielding His Royal Highness became excited again: “But this is good, today I will report to the Northwest with the army and horses, let Zisheng die, and quickly marry a wife and have children! Really, Haven’t tossed enough for so many years… Father, which family do you think Zisheng will choose?”

    The emperor said with a smile: “In these years, you have communicated with Cui Hou in letters. Isn’t that the Luo family who mentioned the most, or the one who used to be a companion to the fifth princess, what is it called?”

      I heard that there is an outstanding person, the Huo family is weak, how can Zisheng rely on his wife and clan in the future? Fortunately, Luo Jitong is a well-known and virtuous woman. The Bodoffs are highly acclaimed for serving a seriously ill bedridden aunt. Both talent and virtue are top-notch—”

    “All in all, it’s a hundred times more virtuous than Shaoshang.” The emperor nodded and looked at his son with a smile, “This matter is what you mean before and after, you don’t regret it in the future.”

    The prince thought about it for a while, and said firmly: “The Cheng family is a stubborn one. , are enough to match Cheng Shi and Zisheng. Some things, just cut the mess with a quick knife, the longer the delay, the worse it is!”

    “Okay!” The emperor smiled and clapped his hands, “As you wish, I will go to the frontier and ask Cui You to quickly set up a marriage for Zisheng! The punishment is to guard the border for seven years, and when he returns, I want to see the Huo family’s bride and children and grandchildren!”

    The prince said happily: “Father is wise!”

    Empress Yue looked at her son with pity—she remembered the last emperor who smiled at him like this, and he was buried in the grave within a year. When she looked back, she had to remind the emperor that it was her son, so don’t be too cruel.

    The prince was about to retire when he suddenly turned around and said, “Father, my son, I just realized that your left ear is red…”

    The emperor touched his earlobe and coughed twice: “It was a little itchy just now, I rubbed it a few times.”

    The prince did not doubt that he had him, and said with concern: “It’s better for the royal father to send a doctor to take a look.”

    After the prince left, the emperor restrained his smile, touched his ears and stared at the Yue queen: “It’s all you, I don’t know how to behave, it’s almost obvious!”

      Why don’t you know how to behave? Since you dislike me, why don’t you find some beautiful, gentle and virtuous women from the famous family?”

    The emperor looked at Empress Yue’s eyes and brows, his heart moved for a while, he pulled her into his arms, gritted his teeth and scolded: “I like to bite my ears! Oh, Zi Duan is stupid Child, I’m afraid I won’t meet a woman who will bite his ears in this life!”

    Empress Yue giggled and pushed the emperor hard, and the emperor’s mountain-like body fell backwards.

    Then Empress Yue raised her skirt and straddled her legs, pressed her hands on the emperor’s chest, and said arrogantly: “Someone is the queen of Jinjiao Mountain, I am patrolling the mountain today, and I don’t want to meet you, a madman. You have a lot of wrinkles on your beard, but you still have a little bit of beauty left, wait for this king to test your skills, if you can do it, then go up the mountain and be your son-in-law with this king!”

    The emperor squinted: “How do you want to try?”

    Empress Yue smiled coquettishly, and bit on the emperor’s Adam’s apple.

    The author has something to say: Yes.

    The emperors of the Han Dynasty often treated the children and grandchildren of their confidants as their own children, or showed their kindness, or expressed their closeness to this minister. For example, the wild boar loved Jin Riju’s two sons very much , Among them, the eldest son relied on the emperor’s love and misbehavior, and Jin Riju personally killed it, so as not to bring disaster to the family. Later, the Jin family lasted for seven generations until Wang Mang made a big move.
