Chapter 585 Empress Song: Sister-in-law is too difficult to deal with

in the side hall

Everyone was discussing the news that the situation in Henan was calmed down. Empress Song thought about it, and she saw a worried look on her beautiful face, and said with concern: "Your Majesty, I haven't seen the child in Xianning for a few days. The concubine and sister Concubine Rong miss her too. tight."

Concubine Duanrong Yurong lost her mind, she also sighed softly, she was also a little worried when she mentioned her own daughter, she didn't know if her body would be able to hold on after eating and sleeping outside.

Princess Jinyang's beautiful eyes flickered, and she suddenly said: "Zhi'er should be in Kaifeng Prefecture at the moment, if the emperor's wife misses you so much, it's okay for someone to send a letter and escort Zhi'er back. of."

Empress Song: "..."

What do you mean?

That's right, Jinyang's idea is that she doesn't want Xianning and Ziyu to stay longer, so as to avoid mutual affection, but this is His Majesty's wish, can she stop it?

Emperor Chongping pondered for a moment, and said: "Xianning joined the army with Ziyu. This long-distance raid, you can see that she has endured hardships. Now that the situation in Henan is initially settled, I want her to follow Ziyu around Henan. My daughter can't always be pampered and pampered, she should also see the sufferings of the people, and when she comes back, I can also ask about the people's feelings."

"Brother Huang said so." The eldest princess of Jinyang's plump and gorgeous face showed approval, but there was a hint of worry in her eyes.

It seems that the emperor's brother has made up his mind, and he is determined to promise Xianning to him, and the emperor's sister-in-law, if she guessed correctly, she will still have her daughter's idea.

Simply delusional.

Empress Song smiled and said: "It would be nice if I could come back sooner, Your Majesty, just now, my concubine was talking about the marriage of a few children with Miss Jinyang. It's a lot better."

The previous "theory of size" by the eldest princess of Jinyang, while embarrassing Empress Song, also made Empress Song think that she might as well put her son Liang Wang Chen Wei and Jinyang Princess in front of Emperor Chongping and Princess Jinyang. The matter of the little princess is settled.

Princess Jinyang frowned, glanced at Empress Song, and felt a hint of vigilance in her heart.

Emperor Chongping asked in surprise, "What kind of marriage?"

Empress Song smiled lightly and said: "Isn't this just talking about sex with Miss Jinyang? Seeing that Xianning and Chanyue are not too young, it's time for us elders to take care of important life-long events."

When Emperor Chongping heard the words, he suddenly realized that the women in the harem liked to talk about the family's shortcoming.

After thinking about it, he said: "There is no rush, I still want to see Ziyu's meaning again, I can't wishful thinking."

It would be better for Xianning to be more aggressive and let Ziyu propose the marriage in person, otherwise he would give the marriage without a deep emotional foundation, even if he married in the past, how much bond would he have with Ziyu?

Besides, Zi Yu had to make contributions in the battle of the Eastern Captives, only then could he be able to block up and down Youyou's mouth.

Thinking of this, he stopped Empress Song and said softly, "Zitong, don't be too hasty now, and don't let this matter out."

Empress Song nodded, and was about to reorganize the language, thinking about how to involve the little princess and her own son.

However, at this moment, Princess Jinyang showed a firm look on her face, and said with a light smile, "Brother Emperor, there is one thing that I don't know about my sister."

Emperor Chongping's face paused, and Shou Songxia's calm eyes looked at Princess Jinyang, and asked, "What is unknown?"

Princess Jinyang showed a thoughtful look on her face, and said softly: "Brother Emperor, my sister is thinking, if Jia Ziyu is really determined by Xianning, is this both from the Ningguo Mansion, or from the Rongguo Mansion?"

As soon as these words came out, Empress Song's jade face changed slightly, her heart skipped a beat, and something bad came out faintly.

He secretly thought, is this Jinyang going to talk about her "big and small" in front of the Holy Majesty, this sister-in-law is really irritating.

Emperor Chongping thought about it, and said, "Naturally it can be regarded as the Rongguo Mansion."

Clearly and subconsciously regarded Qin Ye's daughter, the Qin family, as the Ningguo Mansion.

Princess Jinyang looked gloomy, and said in a clear voice: "Brother Huang, if my sister remembers correctly, Jia Ziyu seems to have become a great clan with a small clan. For offering sacrifices, what is the standard system for his biological father’s incense offerings? After discussing these in detail, there is still no explanation. It is unreasonable for someone to finally give birth to a son who is outstanding and glorious, so he cannot finally offer his own incense?"

Clan sacrifices all have ritual standards, such as the emperor and princes, scholar-bureaucrats, and civilians have different ritual standards for sacrifices, and there are strict rules about how many cows and pigs are killed.

For example, "Da Dai Li Ji": "The sacrifice of the princes, the sacrifice of cattle, is called Tailao; the sacrifice of the doctor, the sacrifice of sheep, is called Shaolao; the sacrifice of scholars, the sacrifice of special hogs, is called feed."

The so-called glorious door lintel is reflected in the sacrificial incense, and the specifications have been upgraded.

Therefore, the immortal heroes of the later generations, who were crowned in the yang world, also had a yin house in the underworld with a hundred feet of aura, which was ten times larger.

But now there are no successors in Ningrong and Rongfu. It's okay now. After more than ten years, what kind of etiquette will be used to offer incense to the ancestors of the two lines?

For example, Ning Rong, Jia Yan and Jia Yuan, Jia Daihua, and Jia Daishan will be worshiped with the rituals of common people in the future, or that the descendants of future generations will directly be common people. First-class officials.

Now, although Jia Heng is in charge of the Ningguo Mansion and worshiped as the patriarch, he still has his own lineage, so he still worships his own family.

Rongning and Ning's two veins just took advantage of it, and mixed sacrifices with clan sacrifices, and the Jia family knew what was going on.

This problem will become more prominent as Jia Heng is granted a title in the future, especially the first-class duke duke, who builds his own ancestral temple, or even the title of county king.

At that time, Jia Heng would definitely say that Huang Kao is my biological father, and I will sacrifice to my lineage, which has nothing to do with Ningguo.

The "emperor" here does not mean the royal family, but the bright lights and beauty.

Then the two branches of Rongning and Ning are not extinct sacrifices, but the rituals of sacrifices have been reduced to gangsters and civilians.

Emperor Chongping thought about it for a moment, and said: "Jinyang said that there is a thing."

The eldest princess of Jinyang smiled lightly and said: "So, according to my sister, Jia Ziyu's own family also needs to sacrifice to the ancestors. Since the two houses are concurrent, isn't the third house concurrent? My sister heard that the sage is in court. If Ziyu sacrifices to his son, what will the Rongning and Ningfu do? The descendants are useless, and the titles are eliminated due to crimes. The blood can only be eaten with the gift of ordinary people."

As soon as these words came out, Emperor Chongping frowned, thinking.

It seems to be true, the Ningrong and Rongfu have unworthy descendants, and there are many likes of treasures and pardons, and he does not intend to let his descendants inherit the grace, but this is a bit harsh to the nobles.

When Empress Song heard the words, she froze in place. For a moment, she was a little uncertain about what Princess Jinyang meant by her words. Concubine Duanrong was also a little dazed, narrowing her bright eyes, and looked at Princess Jinyang suspiciously.

When Princess Jinyang said this, she paused, and said softly: "My sister thinks that the Qin family is Jia Ziyu's wife, so the current first-class baron is the meritorious service earned by Jia Ziyu's own family, so it cannot be regarded as Ningguo's lineage. In this way, Zhi'er is also the head of the Ning Kingdom, regardless of size."

When she said the word "Yuan Pei", Princess Jinyang's tone was a little weaker, and she felt a little strange in her heart.

As soon as this remark came out, Empress Song opened her mouth slightly, Concubine Duan Rong's expression froze, all of them were thinking about these words.

Empress Song's heart moved, she understood the reason, secretly thought, just now, she wronged Jinyang, but in fact, she was really thinking about Xianning's status, and it was she who misunderstood this sister-in-law.

Thinking of this, Empress Song raised her eyebrows, looked at Emperor Chongping who was thinking with a smile, and said softly: "Your Majesty, what Jinyang sister said is reasonable, otherwise, the Qin family is the leader of Ningguo, and Rongguo is the leader of Ningguo." You, in the eyes of outsiders, this is not considered big at both ends, it seems..."

The following words are not straightforward, but the meaning is clear. Doesn't Xianning become a small one?

How does this embarrass the royal family?

The noble concubine Duan Rong also reacted, her eyebrows curved, and she said softly: "Your Majesty, the dignity of the royal family should not be ignored. The concubine thinks this method is indeed feasible. Besides, the prosperity of incense sacrifices in Ningrong and Rongfu Prefectures has not diminished in the past, and it can also show Your Majesty's dignity." Compassionate to the honorable relatives of the founding of the country."

In this way, her daughter inheriting Ningguo Mansion is an out-and-out Dazong, while the family of Jia Heng, represented by the Qin family, is still Xiaozong, that is to say, her daughter is the eldest.

This falls in the eyes of outsiders, but after a closer look, it is also such an understanding.

Emperor Chongping fell into deep thought for a moment, nodded and said: "Jinyang's words are not unreasonable. Ningrong and Rongfu have made great contributions to the country. Although their descendants are unworthy, it is not easy to be involved in incense sacrifices."

Princess Jinyang glanced at Empress Song and Concubine Duanrong, seeing that they were all in the game, and her thoughts were a bit complicated, she said with a smile: "Sister Chen also said the same thing, brother, and sister Chanyue is not young at all." , also intends to promise to Ziyu, it happens that Ningrong and Rongfu are both convicted and expelled, and no one enshrines them. They happen to be one sister, Xianning belongs to Ningguo Mansion, and Chanyue belongs to Rongguo Mansion. From then on, they have no The difference between big and small is only the order of seniority, and the Qin family, so the incense of Jia Ziyu Huangkao is also enshrined, this is not the best of both worlds, but the best of three."

Emperor Chongping: "..."

Empress Song and Concubine Duanrong: "???"

Alright, Jinyang, let me spare a big circle, Tuqiongdao met you.

Moreover, the two sisters also helped Jinyang to speak up.

Well, His Majesty also thinks it makes sense?

Li Chanyue heard the words of Princess Jinyang, as if struck by lightning, she froze in place, her star pupils could not help blinking, what does this mean?

This is asking her to marry Mr. Xiao Jia too, which is really... too unexpected.

Looking at Empress Song who frowned and her complexion changed, Princess Jinyang sighed quietly, and said softly: "Sister-in-law, don't blame me for this kind of heart. Originally, I intended to ask Chanyue to promise to Jia Ziyu, but I was scrupled. Jia Ziyu already has a regular wife, so it's not easy to force her, but after a delay, Xianning... was the first to step in."

Empress Song: "???"

What is the first step?You mother, don't worry about your daughter's life-long affairs, when it's time to come, blame others for taking the lead?

No, Chanyue also married, what about Wei'er?

Emperor Chongping frowned tightly, seeing the expressions of several people in his eyes.

Faintly felt that this place was unusual, as if there was a mist that he couldn't see through, turbulent and treacherous.

The eldest princess of Jinyang sighed softly, and continued: "Brother Huang, my sister, Chanyue, is the only daughter. Now that I say this, I just want to find a good son-in-law for Chanyue. Brother mentioned the method of concubine, and I thought about it. It’s better than this. It’s the best of both worlds. First, it’s because of the size of the royal family, and second, it’s because of my sister’s selfishness. Moonbaby."

Since she is doomed to have no name or role, then... just let Chanyue marry him, so as to deceive others.

And even if Chanyue knew her background in the future, she would still be able to call her mother without changing her words.

So, what is this all about?

Thinking of this, Princess Jinyang felt bitterness in her heart, she felt unbearably wronged, it was not Chanyue who suffered, but her.

Chicken and eggs, nothing...

What's more, he didn't even send a letter from home, and she still wanted to help him here, and when he came back, she would punish him for serving her ten times, no, a hundred times.

Li Chanyue's delicate body trembled slightly, she felt that the handkerchief in her hand was clenched tightly, her heart was complicated and inexplicable.

Empress Song Yurong was stunned, her beautiful eyes twinkled, and she was speechless in surprise for a moment.

She could see now that Jinyang did it on purpose, she did it on purpose!

She said earlier that she was so kind, she spent so much effort on Xianning's affairs, she thought it was subtle, it turned out that it was to save a place for her daughter.

This was to dig a hole on purpose, let her and her sister jump in, and finally let His Majesty in.

This sister-in-law has not been a fuel-efficient lamp for ten years.

Concubine Duanrong's Yurong was startled, she pursed her cherry lips, her crystal clear eyes were filled with worry, and she said softly: "Sister Jinyang, the princess and the princess are all married to one person, this is too...absurd, I'm afraid it will be spread. Going out, all the officials are in an uproar, and the whole world will discuss it."

Although this is indeed the best of both worlds, but if Xianning and Chanyue serve a husband together and spread the word, will it be good or bad?

Empress Song also reacted when she heard the words, and hurriedly said: "Yes, if this is spread, how do people in the world think of the Tian family? Is Jia Ziyu a good man in the whole world? The princess is married, and the princess is also married. You're going to be a gossip."

In fact, she felt faintly that Jia Heng's meritorious service was not enough, so she also felt that it was just an idea to quell the chaos in Henan this time, and her majesty would not formally confer the marriage until he made contributions in the north.

The eldest princess of Jinyang smiled slightly, but her heart was bitter, and she said softly: "Don't worry, sister-in-law, there will be no gossip, it will only be a good story that I like to talk about. If he can wipe out the Eastern captives and open the Great Han Society, the world will be peaceful forever. People will only talk about it, but of course if the meritorious service is not worth mentioning, don’t mention it, it’s just a laugh for the world.”

If she really wanted to disrupt the situation, she would directly expose the affair between Ziyu and her. At that time, Zhier would go back to where she came from.

The pot was lifted, and everyone didn't have to eat.

Now, she can be regarded as worthy of her old friend. Chanyue finally has a good home. She has tried for Chanyue, and she is trustworthy.

Under Li Chanyue's black eyebrows, her eyes were shining brightly, and although her cheeks on both sides felt shy because of mentioning her marriage, they were as red as blood, but deep down in her heart, there was a bit of embarrassing joy.

How to put it, the words of Princess Jinyang opened up a new way of thinking for the little princess, as long as the thinking does not slip, there are always more ways than difficulties.

After the eldest princess of Jinyang finished speaking, she turned to look at Emperor Chongping with shining eyes, and asked softly, "What do you think, Brother Emperor?"

Emperor Chongping frowned, and muttered: "This..."

After thinking about it for a long time, he didn't know how to say this "ingenious" proposal. The problem was that he seemed to be a little moved.

If one person holds the three households at the same time, then you will never have to worry about the issue of being unable to be sealed, and the master with high achievements. As long as the success is achieved, the military power will be split up and checked and balanced.

But this is too cheap Jia Ziyu, a niece, a daughter to marry him?

Unless he wiped out the Donglu, no, he will reform and reform in the future, and help the big man work hard to extend the country.

Now, although Jia Ziyu has quelled the civil unrest, the weight is still not enough, even the marriage gift from Xianning is not enough.

In this way, in fact, it is too far away to say these things now.

However, what Jin Yang said also has a certain truth, holding the three houses together can indeed end the debate between big and small, and at the same time, can bestow the best of both worlds on Ningrong and Ningrong.

Emperor Chongping thought for a while, and said in a deep voice: "We will discuss this matter later. It is too early to say these things now. As Jin Yang said, meritorious deeds are not worth it, and false claims about this matter will only be laughed at by the world."

For his daughter alone, if she wanted to break through the restriction of being a legal wife, she would have to give a reason to stop Youyou's mouth, and Jia Ziyu had to make special contributions, let alone bring along another princess.

Princess Jinyang's beautiful eyes twinkled, and there was no look of disappointment on her jade face, she said softly: "Sister Chen is just a proposal, as long as the emperor knows it well."

Originally, it was to leave a shadow in Brother Huang's heart, so there is no need to rush it for a while, and Brother Huang will naturally think of it one day.

She just mentioned Chanyue's marriage in a clear-cut manner, and the whimsical little thoughts of the emperor's sister-in-law, let alone dismiss them, at least have to be honest for a while.

What Liang Wang, who is frizzy and out of shape, can marry her family's precious daughter?

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but look at Li Chanyue, her beautiful eyes were gloomy.

Chanyue, do you know that you have made me miserable as a mother.

At this moment, Li Chanyue lowered her head, her pretty face was already blushing, her little hands kept twisting the handkerchief, her mind was inexplicable.

She is still Yunying's unmarried child, and she mentioned her life-long events in front of her face.

Also, my mother didn't ask her what she thought.

She actually... didn't think so either.

I just feel that if Cousin Xianning has a home, she will be left alone, and then she will marry a prince or grandson whom she doesn't know. In this case, Mr. Jia... is not bad.

Empress Song had a gloomy expression, she turned her eyes and glanced at Princess Jinyang, feeling extremely tired.

Sister-in-law is really difficult.
