Rebirth Handbook - Chapter 170
The current emperor is four years older than Pei Shunqing. He is now twenty-nine. In the recent palace draft, more than a dozen young and beautiful concubines have been selected. Therefore, the emperor no longer holds the queen and the concubine and thinks about things every day. , Turned to favor a 16-year-old beauty, and even called Pei Shunqing into the palace to discuss matters less frequently.
After Pei Shunqing recovered from his illness, he returned to the director of the Korean Central Committee. When he came back, he could quickly finish the things accumulated in his hands. Others were also very convinced. In addition to the big court meeting, Pei Shunqing had to go to the court meeting on weekdays, almost running to the palace every day. As the most beloved celebrity around the emperor, Lord Pei has also been relatively popular recently, mainly because he died of his wife, and everyone was a little bit ready to move.
As far as his face is concerned, Nan Shang Jingzhong has seen his daughter’s house, and more than half want to marry him, because there is no elder in his family, and the future is unlimited, and the other half want to marry him. Earlier, when Ying Xian was still there, he wanted to be concubine with him a lot, but he refused all of them. Everyone felt that he was a hindrance to Sheng Yonghou’s face and was not easy to accept concubines.
But now that everyone is dead, it’s hard to stop them and find his wife again. Some time ago, because he was ill in bed, some people were not easy to bother. Now it is different. Everyone with a discerning eye can see that he has gone out of the previous tragedy and should have come out. Don’t hurry up at this time, are you waiting for others to get on the ground first?
The first person who came to explore Pei Shunqing’s tone was his teacher Song Yuansong Prime Minister Song. Prime Minister Song saw that he had taken care of his body after returning, and he was much calmer than before. He was very pleased and moved his mind. Although he does not have a daughter of the right age in his own family, so many friends and relatives always have daughters of the right age.
But Pei Shunqing refused. He only said that in the past eight years he had no longer considered taking a wife, and wanted to do something for the country and the world.
Song Jae was very moved by his student’s progress. Even though he knew that he was a student 80% of nonsense, he never mentioned it again. By the way, he passed out through his own channels that Pei Shunqing did not marry for eight years, which prevented him. Few people. This is the tacit understanding between teachers and students.
The enthusiasm of those colleagues Pei Shunqing could be rejected directly, but the emperor didn’t know why he had to intervene. When he summoned Pei Shunqing to discuss matters, he had finished talking about the affairs of the court, and always talked about the things he had encountered as before, and exchanged feelings with Pei Shunqing.
One day, the emperor had finished talking to Pei Shunqing about his newly-appointed Yue 嫔 being very good at playing the piano, and suddenly he changed his tone and said to Pei Shunqing: “Shunqing, a man must not be wifeless.”
Pei Shunqing bowed his hand: “The emperor, the minister has been weak recently, and the doctor ordered the minister to recuperate. It’s better not to look like a woman.”
The emperor didn’t expect that he could say such a thing without blinking his eyes. He was blocked by him, and he continued to say for a long time: “This is a bad word, even if it’s not for that kind of thing. The incense is also extremely beautiful.”
Pei Shunqing sighed: “Recently, he has been busy with chores, and his ministers are not free every day. The books in the study are probably in ash, even if there are beauties, they are also left out.”
Everything was given to him by the emperor, and the ministers were so busy day by day that they had no time, and the emperor could not say anything. But how can the emperor be an ordinary person? He immediately changed his words, “Since Ziqing is in poor health and has no time for busy, then he must marry a good wife and go home to help you take care of all kinds of things and let you Worry-free.”
Pei Shunqing didn’t even lift her eyelids, and opened her mouth: “The minister will tell the truth. The minister doesn’t want to marry a wife, but he just can’t find what he wants.”
The emperor was curious, “What do you want to find, tell me, I will help you find it.”
Pei Shunqing said: “The minister wants to find a woman whose appearance is better than that of the minister. Moreover, the other party cannot be too low, at least worthy of me, a Hanlin bachelor of the third grade. The knowledge cannot be too low, at least I can write poetry and paint with me. , The body should not be too bad, at least you can walk on a cup of tea without breathing, you must wash your hands and make soup, be careful, considerate, smart and gentle.”
The emperor: “…” Just the first appearance that is better than Pei Shunqing, then there is almost no choice, plus the following requirements, even if he is the emperor, he can’t be found!
After a cough, the emperor said, “It’s better to say that the latter ones, but this is the first item, Shun Qing, appearance is actually not that important. It is the so-called marrying a wife and marrying a virtuous person.
Pei Shunqing waved her hand, smiled very gently and firmly, with a sonorous voice, “The minister is such a superficial man who only looks at his appearance, and the emperor laughed.”
He is also a man who likes beauty. How could the emperor blame Pei Shunqing for such a statement. But after all, after many years of being together, the emperor also understood what kind of person Pei Shunqing was. When he said this, it was nothing more than rejection. The emperor gritted his teeth and thought about it, but didn’t find a suitable person to come, and was angry with him.
“Hey, I said Pei Shunqing, when you married Ying Xian before, why didn’t you have so many requirements? Only when you look at your physical appearance… which one fits what you said?”
Pei Shunqing’s face is not red and heartbeat, and replied: “If it is Ying Xian, it is naturally different. For the beloved, it is that the other person does not have a good appearance, does not have a healthy body, and cannot learn to write poetry and painting without washing hands and making soup. , Nor gentle, attentive, and considerate, it’s all right.” Anyway, he will.
The emperor sighed, “I see that you are getting better these days, and thought you are not so persistent with Xian, but now it seems that you are still thinking about people, so why bother.”
Pei Shunqing: “The ministers enjoy themselves, why should the emperor worry about his ministers.”
The emperor: “With my beauty in my arms, it is inevitable to think that Aiqing will live alone in a bleak condition, and her heart is really uncomfortable… You really don’t mean to marry again?”
Pei Shunqing: “Why did the emperor mention this several times today?”
“This…” The emperor touched his nose and saw that Pei Shunqing’s eyes were sincere. He felt a little sorry for his friend, so he couldn’t help telling the truth, “Actually, this is not what I meant. I don’t know how these days. What’s the matter, the queen and the noble concubine often come to see me together. If they say that I can point you to a marriage, I am also helpless. They are really annoying.”
“Why do the two empresses care so much about the affairs of the minister’s life?” Pei Shunqing asked. He and the emperor had known each other several years ago. At that time in the palace, he had never seen the princess and another concubine. Why are they so concerned about his marriage now?
“How do I know that there is probably a daughter in their family who cares about you, so I want to ask me to talk to you.” The emperor laughed and said, “We are the most beautiful man in Qi, naturally, we are loved by everyone and everyone is vying for it. of.”
Pei Shunqing frowned, thinking about something. After a while, he asked: “The emperor, dare you to ask the difference between the queen and the imperial concubine, did it start after Ying Xian died?”
The emperor was inexplicable, but nodded, “It seems to be.”
Pei Shunqing asked again: “Some time ago, the emperor rewarded his ministers with a lot of things. Isn’t it true that every time he rewards his ministers, the queen and the noble concubine will gather together?”
The emperor understood, “It seems, yes.”
Pei Shunqing coughed slightly, “Didn’t the emperor come forward to know what is going on with the queen and the concubine? The minister taught the emperor a strategy, and the emperor would know it after a try.”
The emperor heard Pei Shunqing say for a while, his face was slightly
