Concubine Wei, wearing a jingle and a colorful palace attire, walked swaying and smiled as she entered.
A crow's black hair is tied high into a ponytail, with emerald pearls, and a golden step sways and shines, making her neck white and slender, and her face like the autumn moon.
She has sculpted eyebrows and handsome eyes, a beautiful nose and mouth, and a beautiful face with round and smooth face, not a trace of the broken moon.
Although she is already in her forties and is a mature woman, her mature beauty and charm are better than the youthfulness of a young girl...
Changle and Jinyang stood up together and saluted Wanfu: "I have met Concubine Wei."
The plump Concubine Wei smiled before saying anything. After returning the gift, she stepped forward and took the hands of the two princesses. Her beautiful face was full of gentle and amiable smiles: "Oh, how dare you be a big gift to your two highnesses? We...
The uninvited guest didn't disturb your peace, did it?"
Princess Changle smiled and said: "We sisters are just chatting. Madam, please take a seat."
Princess Jinyang also smiled warmly, and together with Chang Le, let Concubine Wei take the seat.
Although I guessed that Concubine Wei's visit must be related to her marriage, I was somewhat conflicted. However, since Emperor He of the Eastern Han Dynasty began to advocate "ruling the world with filial piety", no matter the royal family or the people, the word "filial piety" cannot be violated. Concubine Wei is the elder. Of course, in my heart
No matter how unwelcome you are, it can't be superficial, otherwise it will be a sign of lack of education.
The reason why His Majesty Li Er has been criticized is that he killed his brother and his brother. But at that time, the situation of "either you die or I die" was understood by most people. You can't have your brother to kill you, so you can only lead him to death.
Are you not allowed to resist? The biggest problem is that after Li Jiancheng was killed, Li Yuanji did not feel at ease as the prince, but couldn't wait to "force his father to abdicate", and even put his great ancestor Li Yuan under house arrest in the palace, and was not allowed to meet his ministers and clan...
This is absolutely intolerable by the ruling class, because everyone is worried that if this happens, their descendants will imitate the same example and frequently commit "treason" and "misdeeds", which will really make them restless at night and unwilling to eat...
Concubine Wei took advantage of the situation, looked at the two princesses sitting on the left and right with a smile, and praised: "Your Highnesses are both naturally beautiful, beautiful and smart, no wonder Your Majesty loves them so much, they are really very cherishable.
."
Princess Changle's face was calm, her eyes slightly lowered, and she smiled softly: "My queen, please don't praise me so much. Li Zhi and Si Zi cannot afford it."
Princess Jinyang smiled and said nothing. She poured two cups of tea and placed them in front of Concubine Wei and Princess Changle respectively.
Concubine Wei took the tea and held Princess Jinyang's hand. Her charming face seemed troubled and she sighed softly: "Your Highnesses are well-educated, gentle, virtuous, and filial. If there were two of my two women,
Your Highness is half of me, and I feel at ease. He keeps causing trouble for me all day long. It’s annoying every day, but it’s hard to ignore it..."
She had two daughters and one son. The eldest daughter, Lord Dingxiang, was born to Li Min, the son of the former Minister of Civil Affairs of the Sui Dynasty during their first marriage. Later, when the Sui Dynasty fell and the Tang Dynasty was established, she remarried to His Majesty Li Er and gave birth to Lin.
Princess Sichuan and Prince Ji Li Shen.
It stands to reason that when she said this, the two princesses should continue the conversation, such as asking "what's bothering the empress?" However, Changle and Jinyang both had gentle faces and smiles, leaving Wei Concubine to say nothing.
I can't say it anymore...
Concubine Wei's expression changed slightly, then returned to normal. She gritted her teeth, looked at Princess Jinyang's beautiful little face, and praised her: "Your Highness Jinyang is really good-looking and has a gentle temper. I blame my natal nephew." I have been thinking about tea and food all day long, thinking about how to propose marriage to His Majesty, and I almost feel lovesick!"
Hearing this, the smile on Princess Jinyang's face instantly faded, she lowered her head slightly and remained silent.
Previously, Concubine Wei had repeatedly talked in front of her about how Wei Zhengju was so cool and suave and wanted to arrange her marriage. She thought that after the previous conflict with Fang Jun's brother-in-law, the Wei family would give up this idea. , but didn’t want Concubine Wei to bring up the old story again today, obviously she hasn’t given up yet...
But no matter what, it was a bit rude for her to show Wei Fei's face like this.
Princess Changle glared at her slightly angrily and said to Concubine Wei with a smile: "Master Wei is famous far and wide. He is actually one of the few handsome men among the younger generation."
Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished speaking, she saw Princess Jinyang raised her head, blinked, and asked with a smile: "Sister, what you said is biased. Nowadays, except for my brother-in-law, only those who can be called 'young handsome men' can be called 'young handsome men'." Who dares to bear this shamelessly?"
Changle: "..."
I was so angry that I gritted my teeth and glared angrily at this stinky girl. They were just polite words, why should I be serious? It's not polite.
The smile on Concubine Wei's charming and beautiful face suddenly froze, feeling very embarrassed.
However, she was able to win the favor of the harem by remarrying, and her mental skills were naturally not easy for others. She quickly adjusted her mentality, gently stroked Princess Jinyang's palm, and said with a smile: "Your Highness is right, the official documents of the Yue Kingdom are as good as Cao Zijian." He is more than a hero of the Tang Dynasty. There are few heroes who can compare with the Duke of Yue! So, His Highness Gao Yang is really lucky. There are so many heroes. After the meritorious service, His Majesty chose this one for her. She was originally a naughty woman, but after taking over the marriage, she became more and more extraordinary in the past few years. Following His Majesty, she made great achievements and made many rich and noble ladies envious..."
This time, it was Princess Changle's turn to be embarrassed.
Although she knew that Concubine Wei's words were just to remind Sizi, telling her that no matter how good Fang Jun is, he is still Gao Yang's consort and your brother-in-law, and you can't think about it all day long. But these words stopped in Sizi's ears. No matter what, it seemed as if his inner thoughts had been revealed.
Isn't he just thinking about Gao Yang's consort all day long...
His eyebrows were lowered and his eyes were expressionless, but his face was burning hot.
Princess Jinyang blinked, glanced at Princess Changle, then smiled sweetly, and said to Concubine Wei in a gentle and affectionate manner: "Brother-in-law is a young hero, his civilization is spread all over the world, his martial arts skills are the best in the court, he is also heroic and handsome. Which daughter's family has never imagined that such a man would appear in their life, and thus admired him? So, our sisters are used to seeing strange men like our brother-in-law all day long, and then look at those men next to us. The vulgar people who arrange flowers and apply powder are really disgusting... Oops, Sizi didn't say that your natal nephew is a vulgar person. I heard that he is also a very good person, not worse than his brother-in-law. ,whee."
Concubine Wei: "..."
Can we still chat happily?
Even if she thinks highly of her nephew Wei Zhengju, no matter how thick-skinned she is, she will feel ashamed when compared with Fang Jun...
Not to mention the younger generation in the court, even those civil servants and generals who followed His Majesty to conquer the world, how many of them can match Fang Jun's fame, power, title and achievements today?
If Princess Jinyang's beautiful face wasn't filled with a cute and amiable smile, and her words were obviously unintentional, she would have thought that this was a deliberate slap in the face...
Maybe this is "innocent"? Concubine Wei didn't dare to think about it deeply, otherwise she would be even more embarrassed.
"Your Highness is right. The Duke of Yue is indeed one of the best men in the world. But in the final analysis, the Duke of Yue has not been outstanding since he was a child. He is versatile in both civil and military affairs. His majesty favored him and gave him opportunities. He has grown up step by step.
, are now like giants in the government? There are many young people who are not incompetent, but just lack those opportunities. As long as they are given the opportunity, they may not do worse than others."
Concubine Wei concealed her embarrassment and said with a smile.
Princess Jinyang obediently lowered her eyes and smiled softly: "That's what your Majesty said."
When Princess Changle saw her expression, her heart skipped a beat. After the death of her mother, this girl was the closest to her. She would take her to play with her when she returned to the palace from time to time. She knew her temperament very well. She seemed gentle and gentle.
Shu is well-educated and sensible, but she is soft on the outside and strong on the inside, but she is very stubborn at heart. Once she is provoked, she will be very aggressive.
He quickly smiled and said, "I wonder if your Majesty is here today to have something to do?"
Concubine Wei caressed Princess Jinyang's shoulder lovingly and said with a smile: "That's a bit abrupt. I really think His Highness Jinyang is gentle, amiable, and smart. My natal nephew is even more lovesick. I won't marry anyone but Your Highness."
, so I’m here today..."
Before she finished speaking, she saw that Princess Jinyang's pretty face turned cold. She was not angry, but her tone was not very polite: "Marriage is an important matter, it is the order of the parents, and the matchmaker's words, how can I, a daughter who has not left the court, privately
What was agreed upon? If it spreads, people in the world will ridicule the Tian family for not knowing etiquette and disregarding their integrity, which will bring disgrace to my father's face."
Princess Changle almost put her hand on her forehead. The girl had indeed lost her temper, but the words were too harsh. Wouldn't it mean pointing at Concubine Wei's nose and scolding her for being rude and shameless?
Concubine Wei froze, the smile on her face seemed to be frozen by ice, and she almost dropped her face.
This little girl looks gentle and virtuous, but why is she so sharp-tongued and speaks so viciously?
