Twenty-nine, the flowers and leaves are quiet and beautiful despite the wind and rain
On May 14th of the first year of Taihe, Empress Xiao Yu was buried in Jingping Mausoleum. At this point, Empress Yu's hundred-day funeral ended. At this time, rumors that Lu Na's daughter Lu Weirui was going to enter the palace and become the empress were already rampant. If
The person who will enter the palace is another girl from the southern tribe, so she will not have such a sensational effect, except for the fact that the bitter love between Lu Weirui and Chen Caozhi has been known to everyone for the past three years, and now, this most important event in Jiangzuo
The much-discussed romance is coming to an end——
The ordinary people in the market are just watching this. This is a matter between the royal family and the aristocratic family and has nothing to do with them. Although they sympathize with Chen Caozhi, that's all. This Chen Caozhi is willing to take risks and go out.
The country of Dihu, which makes people drink blood, is not worth working so hard for the emperor;
The Nandu gentry headed by the Langya Wang family and the Taiyuan Wang family expressed opposition. From Emperor Wu of Jin to the present, the queen family has not come from the south. Although it is now located in Jiangzuo, if the Lu family of Wujun becomes a relative of the emperor, it will be shaken.
The dominant position of the Nandu nobles in the center of power was Wang Shu, Wang Biaozhi and other leaders of the Nandu nobles. They believed that Huan Wen was not willing to see the marriage between the emperor and the Lu family of Sanwu. They let Huan Wen deal with such matters, while they
Isn't it the best way to let the Huan family fight with the Nan people when they are not involved in the affairs? Therefore, the minister ordered Wang Shu, the minister Pu She and the minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, Wang Biao, only criticized the matter in private, but did not
Putting pressure on Emperor Sima Yi and the Lu family in the court was tantamount to condoning the matter invisibly;
The Jiangdong gentry headed by Gu, Lu, Zhu, Zhang, Yu, Wei, Kong, and He, in order to improve the status of the southerners, are of course willing to see the Lu family become the relatives of the emperor, although the Gu family among them,
Out of their personal friendship with Chen Caozhi, the Zhang family, the Yu family, and the Kong family felt that Lu Shi rushed to send Lu Weirui into the palace while Chen Caozhi was on an envoy to Di Qin. Such behavior was really unworthy of the dignity of the family, but after all, this was
Regarding the Lu family's affairs, they have no reason to object, they just remain silent——
Lu Qin reported to his father Lu Shi every day what he had heard about the reactions of the court and the common people on Wei Rui's entry into the palace. Lu Shi was very satisfied and felt that there were far less obstacles than expected. The biggest obstacle now was Lu Na.
, Lu Na clearly opposed Wei Rui's entry into the palace, but Lu Shi was sure of persuading this third brother. He had already sent people to Wu County to invite several elders from the clan to Jiankang, and they took turns preaching. Lu Na could not help but give in. As for what he said,
Wei Rui, of course the marriage is decided by the parents, so there is no way for her and Chen Cao to mess around!
Lu Qin had planned it through his minister Xiang Long, and Zhu Lingbao had tested the emperor Sima Yi's will. Sima Yi was only twenty-two years old this year, and of course he was not willing to be the puppet emperor, even though it was the Nandu nobles such as Wang Dao who established him.
The royal family of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, but if Huan Wen becomes more powerful and makes achievements in the Third Northern Expedition, these Nandu nobles feel that the harm to Huan Wen outweighs the benefits, and they will definitely fall to Huan Wen. This is determined by family interests. After changing dynasties, the aristocratic family will still be an aristocratic family, so
It is said that the Wang Xie family cannot be relied upon by Sima Yi, and if he can get the support of the three Wu clans who have been excluded from the center of power for a long time, and if Yuan Zhen and Yu Xi support troops to contain Huan Wen, then Huan Wen will not dare to covet the throne unscrupulously
Treasure——
Sima Yi was young and vigorous, and wanted to revive the imperial power and make great achievements. However, his great-uncle Langya King Sima Yu, who controlled the political power, did not support him. On the third day after Empress Xiao Yu was buried in Jingping Mausoleum,
, Sima Yu entered the west hall of Taiji Palace in Taicheng to meet Emperor Sima Yi. Talking about the rumors about the Lu family's daughter entering the palace in Jiankang, Sima Yu said sincerely: "Your Majesty, there is no example in this dynasty of establishing a southern woman as a queen. Wang Xie
The wealthy family would not agree, and if the Lu family's daughter entered the palace just as a concubine, the Lu family would not be willing to accept it, so it would be hard to avoid resentment. Not to mention that the love affair between this woman and the prince Xima Chen Caozhi is known to the world, and your majesty and ministers
If you compete for a woman, wouldn’t you be laughed at by others?”
Emperor Sima Yi held back his anger and let the emperor's uncle finish what he said. He only heard Sima Yu say: "The Minister of Mainland China and Huan Da Sima are not on good terms. In this critical period, if your Majesty hires Lu's daughter to enter the palace, wouldn't he deliberately anger Huan?"
I think your Majesty should issue an edict to refute the rumors and make it clear that there is no such thing, so that I can protect the peace of the country."
Seeing that Langya King Sima Yu was so afraid of Huan Wen, Emperor Sima Yi was very angry and sneered: "Does the emperor think that I want to issue an edict to refute the rumors? My edicts are so rash!"
Sima Yu looked at the young grandnephew emperor and asked, "So this is just a rumor?"
Emperor Sima Yi did not answer, but raised his eyebrows with his hands and said with a frown: "I am saddened by the recent loss of the Yu family. The emperor's uncle has retired. I am very trapped and need to calm down and take care of myself."
Sima Yu had no choice but to withdraw from the west hall of the Tai Chi Palace, feeling worried. The emperor seemed to have his own way. What should he do?
If talking about ruining the country, Sima Yu is indeed the one to blame. This handsome and graceful pillar of the Sima royal family, who is over forty years old, has a false reputation but no real talent. Xie An once said in private that Sima Yu is just better than the "why not eat"
Minced meat?" Emperor Hui of Jin was so strong——
…
On the morning of May 25th, Zhang Tongyun came to Lu Mansion to see Lu Weirui, but he saw a large number of chariots and horses and servants coming to Lu Mansion and Xiao Lu Master Mansion. After asking, he found out that Lu Shi, Lu Na's several cousins and uncles
Arriving from Wu County and Haiyu County to Jiankang, Zhang Tongyun felt nervous. She understood that these elders of the Lu family had made a special trip to persuade Lu Na to agree to send Wei Rui to the palace——
When Zhang Tongyun saw Lu Weirui, Lu Weirui was surrounded by the elder female relatives of the clan. You and I persuaded each other with every word. Lu Weirui was not angry or spoke. She sat there quietly, with her fine eyelashes covering her face and her hands folded.
on the lap——
Zhang Tongyun's legs felt a little weak when she saw this posture. She thought that if it was her, she would either give in or die. Alas, it would be really difficult for Wei Rui.
Because of Zhang Tongyun's arrival, Lu Weirui had to escape temporarily and went for a walk in the back garden together. Zhang Tongyun found two strong servants only five or six steps away, following closely. This servant was relatively unfamiliar, not the one who often served Weirui.
several--
Zhang Tongyun said to the two servant women who were following closely: "I want to talk to Wei Rui, so please stay away."
The two servant girls murmured incessantly, but only took a few steps away and refused to leave.
Lu Weirui said softly: "Atong, don't pay attention to me. This is the person sent by my second uncle to supervise me. My second uncle is afraid that I will commit suicide. He sends people to watch me day and night. It's not easy to die!"
Zhang Tongyun looked at Lu Weirui worriedly. Lu Weirui smiled at her and said: "Don't worry about me, I'm fine -" Looking at the flowers and trees in the garden, June Snow, Golden Plum, and Lilacs were in full bloom in the courtyard.
The ivy vines on the wall were lush with leaves. Lu Weirui said leisurely: "It's not easy to live. I can firmly remember what Zhu Canjun said. No matter how difficult it is, you must wait until Chen Langjun comes back."
Zhang Tongyun nodded vigorously, but then said: "Chen Langjun has been away for nearly three months. He should be back soon. Chen Langjun will be fine in Jiankang."
Lu Weirui said: "It's six or seven thousand miles to and from Chang'an, how can we come back so quickly?" He asked: "What's the matter with A Tong's visit today?"
Zhang Tongyun said: "Empress Dowager Chongde is going to Waguan Temple to offer incense tomorrow. I will go to the temple tomorrow to present your statement to the Empress Dowager."
Zhang Tongyun originally wanted to ask his uncle Zhang Ping to submit the submission on his behalf, but Zhang Ping had concerns and could not hide the matter from others. When Lu Shi found out about it, he and Lu Shi had a grudge. This was something Zhang Ping did not want to see.
But if he refused to help, not only would his niece blame him, but Chen Caozhi would not be able to see her when he returned in the future, so Zhang Ping came up with a plan for his niece Zhang Tongyun. Empress Dowager Chu believed in Buddhism and went to Waguan Temple several times a year to offer incense.
, after Empress Dowager Chu went to Waguan Temple, Zhang Tongyun managed to present Lu Weirui’s statement to Empress Dowager Chu——
When the elders of the Lu family came to Beijing, Lu Weirui felt that the storm was coming. Her father, Lu Na, was frowning and had more gray hair on his temples. Aunt Zhang was also very worried. Although Aunt Zhang usually supported her, but the elders of the family were here, Aunt Zhang
There was no weight to speak, and if she could express her feelings to the Empress Dowager Chu at this time, the virtuous Empress Dowager Chu would definitely prevent the emperor from breaking up her marriage with Chen Langjun——
Lu Weirui said: "A Tong, why don't you go see the elder Zhu Fatai of Waguan Temple today? We painted in Waguan Temple last year, and Elder Zhu also knows you, so please ask Elder Zhu to hand it over on your behalf."
Zhang Tongyun understood that Lu Weirui was worried that she would be blamed by the elders of the Gu family. Alas, Weirui was so kind-hearted, and she was still thinking about others at this time. Zhang Tongyun said: "Weirui, we are sisters, I won't help you."
Who can help you? I can't help you with anything else. I don't have the wisdom of Zhu Shenjun, but I still can't do the sending of letters. I have to see your petition in the hands of the Empress Dowager Chongde before I can rest assured."
Lu Weirui held Zhang Tongyun's soft and boneless palm, and together they went out the back door to look at the clear water of Hengtang——
It was almost noon when Zhang Tongyun returned to the Gu Mansion. He was very happy when he saw that her husband Gu Kaizhi had returned from Gushuxi Mansion. It was because he heard that Lu Weirui was going to enter the palace and become an imperial concubine that Gu Kaizhi took leave from Huan Wen and rushed back to ask what was going on. After hearing this,
Zhang Tongyun told what happened. The mad man became crazy and wanted to question Lu Shi. Zhang Tongyun quickly persuaded him to stop. Gu and Lu only restored their old friendship last year. It would not be good if they fell out again, and Gu
, the falling out between the two surnames Lu and Wei Rui is harmful rather than beneficial——
Gu Kaizhi said angrily: "Lu Shi's behavior is simply despicable. He sent Miss Lu to the palace when the son was not in the capital. It is really disgusting! I will go to Waguan Temple tomorrow to submit this statement to Chu.
Queen Mother, we must not let Lu Shi's evil plan succeed."
Zhang Tongyun said: "I will go too."
At night, Gu Kaizhi discussed with Chen Caozhi's brother Chen Shang, and Liu Shangzhi also came to report that the elders of the Lu family were forcing Lu Na, and Lu Weirui's situation was worrying.
Gu Kaizhi said: "I have read Miss Lu's statement. It is very moving and deeply in love. It will definitely impress the Empress Dowager Chu. Moreover, Empress Dowager Chu had met Zizhong and Miss Lu at Waguan Temple last year. How could she let the emperor break up this couple?"
A beautiful pair!"
Although Gu Kaizhi said this, Chen Shang was still worried. The matter involved the emperor and the Lu family, which was far beyond what the Chen family of Qiantang could contend with.
