Chapter 615
After Emperor Mingyuan left, Concubine Lu was very worried.
She knew that the emperor was interested in this marriage, otherwise he would not have come to ask her. He refused directly.
The emperor would agree to Huai'er marry a businessman's daughter, and probably asked many families to ask them. Only after they failed would this be considered.
Could it be that Huai'er really can't marry a good wife?
She felt uncomfortable. The next day, she asked someone to invite her parents' sisters-in-law to the palace to speak.
She was not lucky, and her niece in her parents' family got married, and she couldn't get married. Fortunately, her two sisters-in-law went to Beijing with their brothers for a long time. They could eat happily in Beijing and knew many people. They could ask them to help pay attention.
Concubine Lu’s two sisters-in-laws, one is Diao and the other is Wu. She was not from the capital, so she followed her husband to the capital and lived in the capital for a long time.
Concubine Lu’s family was not very capable. Otherwise, she would not have been so disappointed over the years.
When Concubine Lu talked about King Huai’s marriage, Diao first said: “Empress, the so-called marriage is to seek a good wife. The origin is not the most important thing, a good character and a good personality, and a filial piety to you. That’s all.”
Wu also said, "Yes, people live for the rest of their lives. What do you want? Isn't it just to seek a smooth and safe situation? The prince suffered a serious illness, which makes people stop. If you want to ask for a noble girl, it is difficult. It is better to lower your requirements and see which foreign official has the right one and then marry him."
Concubine Lu frowned. The daughter of local officials could not consider it. Apart from family background, she was not aware of the truth. How could she rest assured? After all, after marrying her, she took care of the huge royal palace.
Wu said: "Empress, I happen to know a woman. She is the daughter of the prefect of Qingzhou. She has just arrived in the palace this year. She is beautiful and has a good personality. She is well-educated and well-educated. She is also quite famous in Qingzhou. Why not consider it?"
"Yes, I heard it's good, too." Diao also quickly made a comment.
Concubine Lu looked at Wu and said, "Prince of the State? Isn't that your cousin?"
Wu smiled slightly, "That's right, the family is not bad, my cousin is now a fifth-rank official."
Concubine Lu didn't want to. She had seen Wu's cousin. She looked like a three-pointed star anise, mean and sarcastic, and was particularly good at flattering. When Wu got married, she had not yet entered the palace. This cousin had come a few times, and when he saw the high and the low, he could not treat his in-laws.
Concubine Lu waved her hand and remembered the daughter of a merchant that the emperor said. The emperor seemed to agree. Maybe her character is good. If it is okay, it is better to see her first.
However, when she went to see the merchant’s daughter as a noble person, she was also embarrassed when she spoke out, and she was a moment of melancholy.
It also shows that after Emperor Yuan returned to the bedroom, Mr. Mu Ru couldn't help but remind: "Emperor, you have paid almost all the money in the inner treasury, and there are only about ten thousand taels left."
Emperor Mingyuan glared at him, "What do you always remind me of this? It's early winter, and it's enough to save some tens of thousands of dollars during the Chinese New Year."
Madam Mu Ru whispered: "If King Huai gets married, do you think about how much do you give to the bride price from these ten thousand pieces of silver?"
The night exploded above Emperor Mingyuan's head like a drought thunder.
Yes, the prince cannot get shabby in marriage, especially when Lao Liu has been wronged for so long, his marriage has to be done very well, but the money cannot be taken out of the treasury, and the treasury is now more empty than his heart.
Every year, the royal family allocates a sum of silver from the treasury to the treasury to provide royal expenses. All matters are withdrawn from the treasury. In previous years, it was enough, but in the past two years, it has been difficult, and a lot of private money has been paid out.
"Maybe the Supreme Emperor can give some..." He thought about it for a moment, and came up with the idea of the Supreme Emperor's small treasury.
......I'm the dividing line of the poor emperor who is struggling on the poverty line...
Qiankun Palace.
"How many times have you been?" The Supreme Emperor sat on the small stool, smoking a cigarette, and looked up coldly and asked Eunuch Chang.
Eunuch Chang carefully raised three fingers, "Three times."
"How many days have you been?"
Eunuch Chang calculated, "It should be a month, right? It's been half a month since there wasn't a month."
The Supreme Emperor blew his beard and glared, "Are you dead?"
Eunuch Chang quickly comforted, "Don't be angry, I'm afraid I'm busy recently, so I don't care about coming to pay my respects to you. If you really think about it, I will issue an order tomorrow."
The Supreme Emperor was furious, "Busy? I didn't come to Gu's place three times. How much time can I take to come here? What a shocking career will it take to delay her? I said I haven't come for a month, right? It's only more than a month? Gu felt that it's at least half a year. Yes, now I'm full of strength and I don't need Gu's care, so I naturally don't have to come to socialize with the old man. I also sent the decree. If someone doesn't have this heart, what's the use of you sending the decree? It's people, not hearts, and I don't care about it. It's better not to come in the future."
After saying that, he stood up and kicked the chair next to him. He was embarrassed and couldn't kick it. He was so angry that he turned around and kicked the small stool that he had just sat on. The small stool flew out and hit the door and bounced back. As soon as he turned around, the stool flew back and hit his calf. He rushed forward. Eunuch Chang couldn't pull it even if he wanted to hold it. He heard a "puwa" sound and knocked it down on the white jade floor.
Eunuch Chang was so scared that his heart was about to pause. He hurriedly helped him. When he saw the kowtow, he yelled at the top of his throat, "Come on, I will pass on the imperial doctor!"
The Supreme Emperor was helped by him and sat on the chair. His face was so gloomy that he was scary. He reached out and touched his forehead, and blood fell from his hand, and said coldly: "Don't pass it on to the imperial doctor!"
"How can that work..."
"Whether it's okay, I have the final say, just die." The Supreme Emperor shouted angrily when he saw him standing in front of him, "What are you still standing there? Take something to stop the bleeding."
In the Qiankun Palace, there was a chaotic mess. The Supreme Emperor was not allowed to touch his wounds. Eunuch Chang did not allow him to apply hemostatic powder. He then took a cloth to bandage his head. The bandage was still very ugly. He wrapped it tightly for several circles, and the blood even came out and the cloth was stained.
After he lay down angrily, Eunuch Chang hurried to find the emperor. When the emperor heard that the emperor was injured, he was anxious. When he asked the reason, he was angry with the Crown Princess and said that the Crown Princess had not come to the palace to pay his respects.
Emperor Mingyuan sighed. The old man is now like a child and wants to coax and play. The Crown Princess is really there. Why don’t he go and see him after he has entered the palace? He is really heartless.
He did not issue an order, so he directly asked Mr. Mu Ru to go out of the palace to find Yuan Qingling, explain the situation to her, and ask her to come to the palace tomorrow.
He once again told Eunuch Chang not to tell the Emperor that he had asked someone to report to the palace, and that the Crown Princess had entered the palace to pay tribute to him, so as not to hurt the young and fragile heart of the Emperor.
Eunuch Chang sighed, "The Supreme Emperor is getting worse and worse now, so the emperor should have more company if he has time."
Emperor Mingyuan nodded, "Don't worry, I will go."
Emperor Mingyuan felt guilty, and he was really busy recently, so he didn't care about paying respects. The old lady was fine, surrounded by a large number of women in the harem, but the old man was in the Qiankun Palace all day long, saying that he wanted to be quiet, but in fact he was looking forward to someone coming to talk to him.
He paid too much attention to Yuan Qingling and had a lot of hope, so he naturally asked Yuan Qingling to care more about him. He didn't want to see him several times when he entered the palace and didn't want to see him.
