The Submissive Emperor - Chapter 26
“When I was young, I often heard the emperor’s grandfather talk about General Zhengnan, saying that the general was young and promising, and he was one of my few fierce generals,” Xiao Chengjun smiled politely and walked to his princess, “Zhuyu marries me, really wronged. Without him, the orders of his parents cannot be violated, and I hope my uncle and aunt will forgive me.”
Mrs. Ping Jianghou hurriedly returned the gift, “It is a great honor to be able to be married to the royal family. What your Royal Highness said like this is really a shameless concubine.”
“Yes, your highness is polite,” the second uncle bowed his fist, “the ministers and others are grateful for the care of your highness these days.”
Lou Jing looked at the apologetic His Royal Highness, feeling uncomfortable in his heart, and stepped forward to pull the Prince’s husband’s sleeves, “Where is there any grievance, how can your Highness say this?”
Xiao Chengjun glanced at his princess who looked at him eagerly, and patted his hand comfortingly.
Seeing that the two seemed to get along well, the aunt and the second uncle looked at each other, and they were a little relieved. Since they have been married, it would have been better to live a good life. Moreover, the two of them did not expect that this little-known prince would be so virtuous, which is a blessing in misfortune.
The four of them sat down to drink tea, and said a few homely, the atmosphere gradually became warmer. Mrs. Pingjiang Hou looked at the handsome and extraordinary Prince, and she became more satisfied with her look. Not only is she gentle and polite to her elders, but she is also very patient with Lou Jing. If her daughter marries such a son-in-law, she will wake up when she dreams. It’s just that Lou Jing is a man, or the heir of the Anguo government, it’s a shame to marry someone and be a man’s wife.
“Madam, second master, the Anguo government sent someone to give Lilai, saying that Anguo will be there in a while.” A small servant hurried in outside the door to inform.
“He knows the gift this time.” Xu Che snorted coldly.
“Second Uncle…” The aunt reminded him quietly, and turned to look at Lou Jing and Xiao Chengjun. With the temper of the second uncle, he would definitely conflict with his uncle, and it was really not good for the two children to see.
Lou Jing naturally knew what his aunt meant, and looked at each other with His Royal Highness.
Xiao Chengjun took the crown prince and got up, “Father-in-law and the two have not seen each other for many years. I am afraid that my father-in-law will be uncomfortable here.”
“Father should be angry again when he sees me. I will take the prince to stroll around in the garden, and talk to my second uncle and aunt later.” Lou Jing smiled and pulled his prince and husband out of the main hall.
Xu Che didn’t stop him, just apologetically clasped his fists to the prince.
This Pingjiang Houfu was not big, Lou Jing took the prince and her husband around the chaos porch and then turned back, hiding under the back window of the main hall.
“If you show it to my uncles, how good is it?” Xiao Chengjun looked helplessly at the crown princess at the wall. He followed Lou Jing and seemed more and more deviant. He overcame the courtyard wall and ran into the nun’s monastery. Now he is eavesdropping on the conversations of the elders.
“Second uncle is busy punching my father and won’t find us.” Lou Jing said in a low voice, using a tree branch to quietly prop up the rear window.
The voice from the room became clearer immediately, and the three of them began to lift the bar without saying a few words.
“Uncle, sister-in-law is gone, Zhuoyu’s marriage, you should discuss with us anyway.” Mrs. Ping Jianghou’s voice was filled with dissatisfaction. If the first wife has passed away, the marriage of the first-in-law should be discussed with the uncle.
“Brothers are far away in Lingnan, and the emperor’s will is fast, and I can’t help it.” Seeing Yusi in Anguo Gonglou, he didn’t feel wronged.
“Zhuoyu is the eldest son of Qin Feng. The emperor is looking for you to discuss, wouldn’t you say that he is the eldest son of the eldest son who can’t get married?” Xu Che’s voice was filled with suppressed anger.
“The law doesn’t say that the eldest son shall not marry the prince,” Lou Jianyu muttered, lowering his head. In front of his uncle, he couldn’t help but feel a little short of breath, “The emperor grants marriage, I can’t resist the decree, right?”
“You dare to say it!” Xu Che grabbed Lou Jianyu’s collar and raised his hand to beat him. “The candidates for the princess, in addition to Zhuoyu, are the grandchildren of Jingnan, Guangcheng uncle. Son, if you didn’t rush to send your son up, how could the emperor pick the son of Zhong Anguo?”
“Second uncle, there is something to say, and something to say!” Lou Jianyu grabbed the second uncle’s hand and laughed hurriedly.
“Second Uncle!” Mrs. Ping Jiang Hou hurried to pull Xu Che, but couldn’t stop it at all.
There was chaos in the room, Lou Jing leaned on the shoulders of His Royal Highness, and smirked with a tremor. Xiao Chengjun looked at the guy next to him dumbfounded, suspecting that his princess called his uncle from Lingnan just to find someone to beat his father.
It was dusk when he came out of Pingjiang Hou Mansion. Lou Jing discussed with his aunt and went to the Anguo Mansion tomorrow to ask for his property.
“Why should you be so anxious?” Xiao Chengjun sighed secretly as he looked at the smiling princess concubine.
“The big aunt is in charge of the entire Hou Mansion’s Zhongkui, and must go back before the New Year, and can not stay in the capital. While they are in Beijing, someone suppresses the Wei family and quickly separates the family property. It is serious,” Lou Jing borrowed from the carriage. Bumping rubbed against His Royal Highness and leaned against him, “Father and uncle will be removed after the Chinese New Year, and then I will get a lot less property.”
Xiao Chengjun pursed his lips, and stopped talking.
“This property comes to dowry. How can there be such a consideration for my husband’s family in the world?” Lou Jing smiled and took the prince over and rubbed him against his neck.
Xiao Chengjun laughed and touched the big head that was rubbing against him, concealing the bitterness in his eyes.
The next day, when the Crown Prince went to the court, Lou Jing also got up early, and energetically took out a few thick account books to check.
Among them are the accounts of Suzakutang, the dowry of his mother, the land deed of Jinju, and the public account given by the second aunt on the day of returning to the gate-the public account of Anguo Gongfu the year before, all of which were handed over to Le Xian. Lou Jing first sent his prince and husband out, and then went to the East Palace to greet the queen, saying that he would go back to the Anguo Mansion today.
“Why do you want to go back to your natal house suddenly?” Ji Juo frowned slightly. In the past two days, the DPRK has been very unfavorable to the prince. What does it mean that the prince is returning to the Anguo government at this time?
“Erchen’s second uncle and eldest aunt are here from Lingnan,” Lou Jing didn’t seem to see the coldness in the queen’s eyes, and still smiled cleverly. Taking advantage of the aunt’s stay in Beijing, he must return to the dowry.”
“Hahaha, you have the ability. Just half a month after marrying into the palace, you knew that you had spent money in your husband’s house.” After hearing this, the coldness in her eyes immediately disappeared, and she pointed to Lou Jing jokingly.
“How can the queen laugh at the children like this?” Lou Jing pretended to be angry.
“Well, this palace doesn’t laugh at you,” Ji Zhuo smiled and shook his head, and asked the chief **** beside him to pick up some gold and jade jewelry from the warehouse. Take it.” This is a reward for Mrs. Pingjiang Hou, and it can be regarded as a face-saving for his daughter-in-law.
Lou Jing quickly knelt down to thank you.
Anguo Gong’s Mansion has been shrouded in clouds since yesterday. Lou Jianyu has been a black face when he returned to the mansion. He slept all night and did not relax.
“Why bother so much?” The Wei family arranged the dinner for lunch, glanced at the restless Anguo, and sneered, “The son is already married to the royal family. If the Xu family is dissatisfied, let them go with the emperor. Theory, what are you worried about?”
“What do you know,” Lou Jianyu glared at Jishi. “The little beast didn’t know what he said to the Xu family. My second uncle almost killed me yesterday, and I still don’t know what to do today.” , Pointed to his purple chin, Xu Che’s punch was not a joke, if it weren’t for Mrs. Ping Jianghou’s pull, his front teeth would have been knocked out.
“Master of the country!” A young man hurried in, and stumbled at the threshold. “Three…three old ladies are here.”
“Who are you talking about?” Lou Jianyu was surprised. The third grandfather was his clan uncle. The Lou family was not prosperous. There was only such an uncle among the elders. He didn’t have much contact with each other on weekdays. Why did he come today?
“Zhuyu said that there is something important in the family today, and I have asked the old man to be a testimony.” The third old lady walked in with a smile. He and Old Anguo were cousins. Although they had a shady title, there was no prince, the descendants of the family. Relying on the support of Lao An Guogong.
Lou Jianyu’s heart sighed. At this time, Lou Jing called this person over. What was he going to do?
Wei’s face is also a bit ugly. She only took the account of Zhuquetang a few days ago. Wouldn’t Lou Jing be here to make trouble? Thinking of this, he hurriedly pulled Lou Jianyu aside, and whispered: “Grandpa Guo, is it because the princess wants to divide the family property?”
“Huh, what kind of property does he share? I have never lost a penny of dowry money!” Lou Jianyu heard this, and immediately became angry. Jinzhou’s ancestral property has not been found until now. If the little beast dared to mention it to him. Silver, then we will settle the accounts today and get back the ancestral properties of Jinju.
The atmosphere in the court is even tighter than yesterday.
The event of the Taishan earthquake has spread throughout the courts, and this kind of ominous thing has appeared on this kind of bones, and it is simply God’s chaos.
Shen Lian finally had a smile on his face, and the affairs of the imperial temple couldn’t withstand scrutiny. As soon as the affairs of Taishan came out, Emperor Chunde, who had always believed in the fate, probably had no intention of investigating Qinghe’s affairs.
Xiao Chengjun stood solemnly, as if he could not see the pity or mocking glances of courtiers from time to time.
“Where is the Qintian Supervisor?” Emperor Chunde asked, frowning.
The Qintian Supervisor was sweating profusely and came out on his knees, “Enjoy the emperor, the sky was gloomy yesterday, and it rained again in the night, the minister has not seen the stars…”
“Trash, what do I want you to do as a supervisor!” Emperor Chunde patted the imperial case fiercely, “Come on…”
“The emperor!” Qin Tianjian was busy yelling. If the emperor finishes this sentence, he will either throw Wusha or lose his head. “Chen, the minister knows that his abilities are inadequate, but the minister knows that one person can deduce the astronomical phenomenon, and he doesn’t need to watch it. star.”
“Who?” Emperor Chunde was immediately intrigued.
Zhao Duan, the leftist, frowned slightly, glanced at the right, Chen Shichang, and when he saw that he was not surprised at all, he cursed in his heart that the surname Chen had already begun to use any means, and the prince was in danger.
