Three hundred and ninetieth chapters requesting a marriage
Empress Dowager Yang is not the emperor's aunt, and she did not even give her strong support in the struggle for the throne. This is the main reason why the emperor and Empress Dowager Yang have always been at odds with each other. After the emperor ascended the throne, although he respected her as the empress dowager, he did not really regard her as his family.
Empress Dowager Yang was very clear about this fact, and this was one of the reasons why she supported Concubine Xue to the throne.
The Queen is not Queen Mother Yang, but the Emperor treats the Queen with great respect. In many conflicts between the Queen and the Concubine, he always sided with the Queen. Concubine Xue and Queen Mother Yang were both very angry, but there was nothing they could do about it. The power of the Queen's natal family
Not a little, when the emperor was almost deposed from the throne of the crown prince, the queen's natal family did a great job.
Over the years, on the surface, the emperor had shown great respect and love for Empress Dowager Yang and rarely disobeyed her. In fact, only they themselves knew that with the emperor's instructions and support, the empress had gradually taken the power in the hands of the empress dowager into her own hands. This made
Empress Dowager Yang was very angry, especially when Yang Xin's marriage later made the mother and son even more worried.
Empress Dowager Yang knew that Concubine Xue and the emperor had already separated as husband and wife, so she wanted to let the girls of the Yang family enter the palace and become concubines. When the time comes, the prince could also be established as the prince. This would be a great good thing for the Yang family. Who would want the emperor to do so?
She refused Empress Dowager Yang's proposal because she did not want to destroy the balance that the court had finally achieved.
After this incident, Empress Dowager Yang hinted that the emperor had granted Yang Xin a marriage, but the emperor was actually careless. In the blink of an eye, he actually offered marriage to the good son-in-law Yang Xin had chosen, instead marrying the daughter of an unknown connoisseur.
Empress Dowager Yang said it was a humiliation, and she felt that the emperor was deliberately trying to show her off.
At this point, the relationship between the Queen Mother and the Emperor worsened.
At this moment, there was another conflict over Yang Xin.
"The Empress Dowager, the marriage between the minister and his wife was personally approved by the emperor." Dongfang Ye's attitude was quite respectful, as if he thought the empress dowager had forgotten and reminded him, "As a representative of the world's merchants, the Mu Mansion has given the order to the north.
After sending Ma Lian away, the emperor personally appointed Wei Chen's father-in-law as deputy envoy of the Salt Transportation Department, and his wife is now considered the daughter of an official family."
The Queen Mother paused, and the Emperor immediately nodded and said: "Master Mu can be a role model for merchants in the world. I have been working hard to improve the status of merchants. Our country of Ling cannot be strong without merchants. I also visited the governor of Linyang a few days ago.
The memorial sent expresses great appreciation for Master Mu's performance."
"Thank you for your compliments, Your Majesty. Your Majesty cares about the people wholeheartedly. Naturally, the people also hope to share the Emperor's worries." Liu Yun's words were not considered compliments, but they truly coaxed the Emperor into going as he pleased.
Anyone who is an emperor hopes to benefit the people, and even more hopes to gain the trust and support of the people.
"This girl from the Mu family is really good at talking. No wonder she was so fascinated by the boy from the Dongfang family." The Queen Mother looked into Liu Yun's eyes with displeasure, and the displeasure also contained some things that Liu Yun couldn't understand.
look.
Fortunately, Lian Wan'er had said something to Liu Yun before, otherwise she would have been stupidly at a loss at this moment. Speaking of which, she actually didn't think that the Queen Mother would be angry with Yang Xin because she couldn't marry Dongfang Ye. The woman's
Sensitive told her that the Queen Mother seemed to have an unspeakable disdain for her.
Since people have made it clear that they don't like her, she will naturally not be eager to please Yin Qin. She is just a queen mother in the palace. They will return to Linyang after Dongfang Jingye has finished handling the affairs in the capital. She is not Lian Wan'er.
I also want to watch the Queen Mother's eyes in the palace.
"You are such an unruly girl. Hasn't anyone taught you not to raise your eyes to look at the Ai family and the Emperor in the palace?" Since she is not happy, she can always find faults. The Queen Mother narrowed her eyes and said calmly, "You will be successful in the future.
Now that I have Mrs. Hou, I’m not sure how I will be criticized. From the Ai family’s perspective, it’s better to stay in the palace and learn the rules, so as not to be embarrassed in the future.”
Liuyun lowered her head calmly and remained silent. She was really calm. Anyway, no one could leave Dongfang Ye here. The Queen Mother may not understand Dongfang Ye's protection for her, but
But she knew it very well. Not to mention that she was almost set up in the palace before she had the child. Even if she wasn't pregnant now, he would not leave her in this palace that eats people without spitting out bones.
Sure enough, Dongfang Ye just shook his head: "No need to trouble the Queen Mother, we will return to Linyang City in a few days. I'm afraid there won't be many opportunities to come to the capital, and there is no need to spend time learning these palace rules."
The rejection without hesitation made the Queen Mother's face tremble slightly. She didn't expect that Dongfang Ye would reject her words so directly, without leaving any room.
"In that case, the Ai family won't force it." The Queen Mother smiled, her face became kind again, as if the argument just now did not exist.
After chatting some more gossip, the Queen Mother looked at Liuyun again and said with a smile: "It's the Ai family's fault for spoiling girl Xin like this. Her mother died early and her father was too busy. Ai."
My family had no choice but to keep her with me, and my daughter loved her so much at that time."
Finally coming to the topic again, Liu Yun thought to himself, this Queen Mother is really interesting, her temper is really more domineering than Yang Xin's, she is so tough, is she going to be soft? What kind of card is she playing, the warmth card?
"She has never asked the Ai family for anything since she was a child. This is the first time that she wants to marry Dongfang Ye, but she doesn't want the emperor to grant you a marriage first. The Ai family thinks that everything always comes first, and it can't be because of
If she is the niece of the Ai family, then she can rob someone else's husband, right?" The Queen Mother said. Seeing Liu Yun's calm expression, she added, "So the Ai family thought about it again and again, and finally came up with a way, but I don't know if you can agree to it.
It didn't look like a good thing, but Liu Yun was curious about how unreasonable the Queen Mother could make. Still in front of the Emperor, she couldn't tell whether the Queen Mother really loved Yang Xin so much, so she thought so hard.
I want to facilitate this marriage.
Speaking of which, the Queen Mother also knew that Mr. Yang had banned Yang Xin before, but she couldn't stand Yang Xin's entanglement. In addition, this was also the time when she showed her majesty as the Queen Mother. Everyone said that the Emperor was now paying more and more attention to the Queen Mother's wishes.
, she thought that if the emperor agreed to such a small matter, then the rumors of discord between the Queen Mother and the Emperor would be dispelled.
But she didn't expect that the emperor never thought of letting such a message pass. He made it clear that he wanted to rely on such rumors to help the queen take control of the harem. She didn't know if the queen mother was really old.
I can't even read something so obvious.
"Let the emperor grant Xiner a marriage and marry Dongfang Ye as his equal wife." After the Queen Mother finished speaking, everyone's expressions changed.
