That day, Bai Lingen left Chengtian Mansion by boat early because he was worried about his children. Gong Sanyi spent two more days, and after Bai Lingen left, he asked Jia Cong what he had in mind regarding the princess.
.
Jia Cong said: "Isn't it true that the princess's identity has not been recognized by the imperial court? Ask the little saint to write an imperial edict for her, recognize her identity, record the credit on Brother Zhan, and then directly confer an imperial edict on him as a county horse."
Gong Sanyi was still dissatisfied with the identity of his great-nephew, and hesitated: "Is there no other way? Do they have to be together?"
Jia Cong said: "It was originally mutual consent, but now we go to Wushan together to have fun. Emotions, reasons, and the current secular rules all have to be in the same place. Mr. Gong, that brother Bai obviously doesn't want to marry the princess! Why bother?
Holding people back and not letting them go."
Gong Sanyi glanced at him: "What about you?"
Jia Cong was confused: "Huh?" Then the corner of his mouth twitched, "Don't worry about me, I'm not old yet, I will marry a wife in the future."
Gong Sanyi didn't know whether he was really thinking wrong or just pretending to be stupid. He sighed and asked after half a day: "The other day you said that the princess was not very smart, how come it's okay for me to look at you?"
Jia Cong also sighed: "Your old filter is too obvious. The princess doesn't understand anything at all. She has been secretly in love with brother Wu You for so many years. No wonder the children of the Bai family look down on her. Is your grandnephew here?"
Brother Wu You only met her after he got engaged to his fourth sister. Otherwise, he might not be willing to marry a woman who has been secretly in love with another man for several years. After all, the Bai family has not taught her much in recent years. They praise her too much.
It makes her confused about her status."
Gong Sanyi was slightly stunned and said: "Why is her status so low? She still has such an old bone like me!"
Jia Cong rolled his eyes: "How about you recognize her as your granddaughter, or General Bai recognizes her as his granddaughter, and her status will immediately rise. Apart from you and Bai Ling'en, who else cares about Prince Yi Zhong now? In the eyes of ordinary people, you two
Both of them have a higher status than Prince Yitada. Anyway, I am taking care of her for your sake. I don’t care about Prince Yitada even if you talk about Prince Yitada, the late Emperor."
Gong Sanyi was stunned for a long time and shook his head: "Yes, you are rebellious when you urinate. You don't have such things in your eyes." He sighed again and said, "I'm afraid there will be trouble in the Bai family. I'll go over and take a look."
"Well!" Jia Cong secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "That wax fragrant pearl is very alive, it may not be dead." Gong Sanyi also went to Hong Kong.
A few days later, a letter came from the Bai family, and everything was in chaos. When Bai Lingen returned home, he immediately started to investigate Ding Chu's wife La. He had not paid attention to many things in the past, or turned a blind eye. Now he has to investigate, and it won't take long.
They found out. Beringen broke out in a cold sweat. Except for her husband Ding Chu, there were actually six people related to this woman! Four of them were descendants of the Bai family, and the other two were not ordinary people.
Beringen was so angry that he called Ding Chu over and told him face to face. Ding Chu repeatedly cried out for injustice and said: "My wife is so innocent! She is coveted by these people because of her natural appearance. She is my biological wife!"
Bai Lingen said: "Beauty is a disaster, this woman can't be kept! Chu'er, there are many good women. I will help you marry a few more in the future. She is still a mute! I haven't seen you for so long since I married you, and I have raised a son and a half for you."
Girl, what's the use? You're the only one left in Ding's family."
Ding Chu kowtowed with tears in his eyes: "General, I only have her!"
Bai Lingen shook his head and said: "She alone will make a big mess." He ordered his personal guards to go to Ding's house, chop off the woman, and take her head. Ding Chu jumped up and tried to stop him, but Bai Lingen ordered someone to take it down and said,
"I'm doing it for your own good! This woman is obviously a vixen, and she will cause endless harm!" Ding Chu screamed and struggled, because his hands and feet were tied, and he watched a group of guards walk away with knives.
Beringen waited for a long time and no one came back, and he felt a little bad in his heart. Sure enough, his eldest grandson ran in and said bluntly: "Grandpa, I want the fragrant beads, please give her to me!"
Ding Chu was tied aside and yelled: "Shameless! Taking a woman by force!"
Uncle Bai said: "You are just a fellow of my family, how can you be worthy of her?"
Beringen shouted: "Nonsense!" Then he pointed at his grandson and said, "This woman has deceived your mind! Today I have to wake you up!" Before he could beat him, the two soldiers who had just gone to kill him came back with grimaces.
- Bai Lingyi's eldest grandson is holding a sword to protect the woman. No one dares to move. She is frozen right now.
The old man became more and more anxious, "I'll kill her myself! I don't believe it. Is she the reincarnation of Daji?" He walked away. His grandson hurriedly followed behind. Ding Chu was tied up and had no choice but to do it.
When he rushed to Ding's house and took a look, it became more and more lively. It turned out that in addition to the six he had already found, there were two more, nine plus Dingchu! The other eight came, regardless of previous suspicions, and surrounded the woman.
Bai Lingen saw that Mrs. La was so frightened that her face was pale, her whole body was trembling slightly, and she looked pitiful. Her appearance really made the man's liver tremble. However, Bai Lingen was already full of thoughts about blaming all the disagreements between his grandchildren on this woman. He looked at her beauty as if she were pink.
The skeleton looked at his grandnephew with eyes wide open, and the grandson said: "Your grandfather and uncle's bones are not cold yet, but you are so obsessed with a woman! This woman must be a fox demon."
This group of children were all crazy, and they only protected La. One grandson shouted: "Grandpa wants to kill her, kill me first!"
Beringen became even more angry and kicked his grandson down: "I don't have a grandson like you!"
Seeing his cruel intentions, Bai Lingyi's eldest grandson pulled out a long sword and put it on his neck. He shed tears and said, "If my uncle wants to kill her, I won't be able to live anymore!"
The soldiers shouted in unison: "Master, please don't act rashly!" Berlingen pointed at him angrily and was speechless for a long time. After a stalemate for half a day, seeing that none of the young men refused to back down, Beringen threw his knife on the ground, turned around and strode away.
The old man forced himself back to his yard and immediately fell on the bed. The group of men on the other side knew that it was difficult to take off the vixen's hat, so they hurriedly sent La Shi away quietly and hid it. When Ding Chu came home, his wife
He disappeared and fell to the ground. When Gong Sanyi came over, the Bai family was already in a mess.
A few days later, the La family who was originally hiding in a small village suddenly disappeared. Gong Sanyi hurriedly said: "This girl must be a spy sent by someone! Now that the Bai family has been in trouble, she was picked up by the master's family.
." Bai Lingen repeatedly agreed. How could those men who were fascinated by La be believed? They all suspected that others had hidden the girl secretly, and the trouble became more and more serious. If something happened to the Bai family, Hong Kong's business would inevitably be in chaos. Gong San also took advantage of the situation to save the girl.
He rolled up his sleeves to mind other people's business and helped them. Ding Chu could see that he might have other intentions, so he helped him secretly.
When Jia Cong heard about it, he quietly discussed it with Gong Kun: "It would be great if this wax fragrant pearl could wholeheartedly live with that Ding Chu!"
Gong Kun said: "She originally wanted to be a crown princess or empress, but how could she like Ding Chu?"
Jia Cong shook his head and said: "I got a letter from Mr. Liu in Beijing yesterday." He chuckled. There were only two words on the letter: "It's done." He quietly told Gong Kun.
Gong Kun found it funny and asked: "Do you want these concubines of the Supreme Emperor to change their identities and join the common people?"
"Well." Jia Cong said, "The good thing about the chaos in the world is that you can get your identity anywhere. Those Taoist nuns who are willing to marry will be released with their identity and dowry, while those who are not willing to marry will be locked up and do menial labor. Let's see how many of them there are.
Those who are willing to remain a widow to the end for the Supreme Emperor."
Gong Kun said: "It's just that no one knows, it's of no use to you, and you're giving away all that money and power for nothing."
Jia Cong said: "Of course they didn't dare to say it when they were first married. Liu Xianglian claimed that she had a grudge against the Supreme Emperor and wanted to vent his anger on the woman who married him. On the one hand, the concubines were afraid that these green forest thieves would cause trouble again; on the other hand, because of their status
, remarrying means more than just the death of one person. Therefore, it is inevitable to secretly inquire about the goings-on in the palace. King Yan will definitely not care about such things, and it is not his woman who has been lost! Even if the little saint and the queen mother want to, they can.
Is it? In the end, it must be settled. As time goes by, when the concubines have children, and it seems like nothing happened in the court, they will inevitably want to contact their parents' families - almost none of them have ordinary family backgrounds.
There is no airtight wall. The emperor's women marry ordinary people. This kind of thing is much more interesting than the oiran! Even if we don't fan the flames, the news will spread throughout the country in the blink of an eye. As for the other princes, I'm afraid they are still happy to watch the joke.
It’s just that the majesty of the Heavenly Family has quietly disappeared again.”
Gong Kun smiled and said: "It's the same principle."
In the end, all the palace concubines were married off within two months. This is a story for another day.
Two days later, the white-bearded monk had visited all the important schools in Chengtian Mansion and said to Jia Cong, "Since there are schools like this in several countries, I will go somewhere else."
"Oh." Jia Cong said, "Fujian, Guangdong and Guangxi, Lu, Wu, Qi, and Lu are all here. Recently I heard that Qin has also begun to build
"You pick it slowly." The monk nodded and glanced at him with a strange expression. Jia Cong just ignored it and said, "Since you recognize the little saint, I would like to bother you to discuss something with him."
"He then told the story about Princess Yazhi and Zhan Qi.
The monk thought for a moment and said: "Prince Yi Zhong is also the eldest son of the late emperor. Since he is the only granddaughter left and has been rehabilitated, this matter is not difficult."
Jia Cong cupped his hands and said, "Thank you very much." He then said, "Don't forget to buy a prince for my father~~" The monk glared at him.
Jia Cong frowned as he sent the old monk off to the port by boat. People like Chen Ruijin, who had been trained as guards in the palace since childhood, would never see the wrong person. The white-bearded monk probably intended to do something harmful to himself.
But now that everyone is gone, I still can't detect what he is going to do. Later, I never heard of an old monk going to talk to the children in Guangdong, Guangxi, Fujian and other places, and I don't know where he went.
As autumn came, many news came one after another. King Lu finally died of illness, and the infant son was appointed as the new King of Lu. Because an enlightened monk said that the child must be raised in the temple until he is one year old, he would not take him back to Lu for the time being.
Prince's Mansion. Princess Lu became a nun, saying she wanted to be clean. The Queen Mother knew that she looked down upon her son's illness; but since she was willing to become a nun, her mother-in-law still appreciated her.
After King Lu's death, he had more women, food, clothing, and monthly money. The Queen Mother was murmuring in front of the other concubines every day, saying that the princess was fierce. When Princess Lu heard about it, she sent her away.
A sister-in-law invited these women to go to her nunnery to say a sutra. After listening to the sutra, the girls all understood the sutra thoroughly. After returning home, they all reported to the queen mother that they also wanted to become a monk in the nunnery of the princess. The queen mother was even more impressed. Not long after, King Lu's
All the concubines were ordained. At first, the Queen Mother would visit their nunnery and teach them a few words when she had nothing to do. Later, a monk told her that there was a lot of yin in the nunnery and her life would be shortened if she went there too much, so she stopped going there.
Everything gradually calmed down. On this crisp autumn day, Princess Lu was practicing martial arts with Sister Meng in the nunnery. Her eldest brother Liu Shu sent someone to give her something and a thick letter. Princess Lu was shocked when she saw this and hurriedly
Looking at the things her brother had sent, it turned out that inside the bag was a bamboo hat and a set of monk's robes, and she burst into tears of joy.
That afternoon, Zhu Tong took a short monk wearing a bamboo hat home to pray for his young son. When the monk came to the house, he turned into a sister-in-law. When the sister-in-law saw the young master of the Zhu family, she hugged him and cried hard.
The child had just finished feeding and was sleeping, so she woke up. The boss was unhappy and opened his eyes to look at the sister-in-law, and started crying too. The older one and the younger one all cried in their own way, which was very lively. Zhu Tong said with a smile:
"Don't scare my son by crying so loudly." My sister-in-law just ignored him.
Zhu Tong looked at her for a while and asked in a low voice: "What is your name?"
"I didn't give me a name," the girl choked, "Everyone in the family calls me Erniang. When I was about to leave the pavilion, my wife named me Erniang."
Zhu Tong came up to the child to coax him, and then said, "Then give yourself a name."
The sister-in-law thought for a while: "I became a monk a few days ago. Master gave me a Buddhist name called Jingkong."
Zhu Tong said: "It's unnecessary. How about using the word Jing?"
The sister-in-law looked at her son with lowered eyebrows and said, "It's up to you." Zhu Tong looked at her and smiled slightly.
After a while, the child stopped crying and looked at them with a swollen face. The two of them teased him for a while. Suddenly, the girl's hands got wet and the child peed. The two of them laughed, but they didn't want to pee.
The mother joined hands and hurriedly changed the baby's diaper.
In just two or three days, the girl left the nunnery and returned to secular life, changed her name to Liu Jing, and quietly lived in Zhu Tong's home. Zhu Tong had also received Liu Xianglian's letter, so he followed the gourd and found some real things in other nunneries.
My sister-in-law became a monk for the concubines of King Lu. She also secretly arranged their identities and helped them all get married. This is a story for another time.
On the other side, the assassins arranged by the Bai family to enter the Prince of Chu's Mansion finally succeeded, and the second Prince of Chu was assassinated. After the fall, two princes died in succession. All the kings were a little frightened, but they were too lazy to meddle in other people's affairs. The Kingdom of Chu
Then the eldest son of the King of Chu was promoted to the throne and became the third King of Chu. This new King of Chu was only in his early twenties. Although his uncles had supported his father in the past, they were not convinced by him, and the Chu Kingdom gradually divided into factions.
Then they investigated in detail how the previous king of Chu died, and also found the Bai family in Lingnan. It was obvious that they were here for revenge. "When will the injustice be repaid?" This can only be said by outsiders, and the Chu State is targeting the Bai family again.
.The Bai family is now in the most chaotic period. Bai Lingen is bedridden, and the brothers in the two houses are fighting fiercely. There are many more loopholes to exploit than when they killed Beringyi last year. (.. )
