Seven hundred and seventieth IX many children and grandchildren
Qingyue's marriage was settled, and everyone looked happy.
Mr. Xu Wu looked at Qi Defang and became more and more satisfied. The prince of Shunyang County was sitting there, looking generous and decent. I heard that he was also well-read in poetry and books. He had no shortcomings at all.
The prince of Shunyang County was also amiable, but as a member of the royal family, he did not look down on them.
The whole family is so talkative, and they are lucky to have such in-laws. Just before the change of Gengtie, the prince of Shunyang County asked someone to talk to him about this matter. He couldn't help being shocked, thinking that the prince had made a mistake.
Yes, it was later confirmed from Qingyue's mouth that when Qingyue went to the southeast as a guest, she met the prince in the garden.
At that time, Qingyue was feeling anxious with the kite in her hand hanging on the tree. She saw Qing'an and Qi Defang coming over. Since Qi Defang was nearby, he was too embarrassed to ask Qing'an to come over to help. The three of them took a photo and separated. Qingyue dismissed
The people around him went to call the boy to come over. Unexpectedly, Qi Defang came back and easily took down the kite and gave it back to Qingyue.
Later, it was a coincidence that when Qi Defang came to see Xu Qingan, he would always bump into Qingyue.
For the sake of Qingyue's reputation, Qi Defang never told anyone, but only asked elders to come to propose marriage.
Mr. Xu Wu just saw Qing'an's clueless look, and he was even more happy. He felt the sincerity of the prince of Shunyang County, who even tried to hide it from Qing'an for the sake of Qing Yue.
Two people who are inseparable every day, you can imagine how difficult it is to achieve this.
The only thing that worried Mr. Xu Wu was that when he mentioned the marriage to his fourth brother, his fourth brother once asked: "I remember you have a good ear, right?"
Mr. Xu Wu nodded and didn't understand why the fourth brother asked him this.
The fourth brother said: "Treat it well, I'm afraid it will be very hard in the future."
After speaking, the fourth brother went to look at the potted plants on the window sill: "This family with a full face is going to take root here, alas! It seems that we will never think about peace and quiet for the rest of our lives."
To this day, Mr. Xu Wu still doesn’t know who this “it” the fourth brother is talking about is.
After the banquet, Song Chengxuan and Xu Qinghuan were talking to Shunyang County Prince Xue Chen in the study.
The Prince of Shunyang County said: "Now that the Zhang family has regained power, it seems to have become more restrained on the surface. In fact, it is still the same as before. It took a year to train a lot of manpower. The emperor intends to stabilize the Xuanfu, and a lot of military resources are sent to him."
If the fortifications built in northern Xinjiang can really be used to resist the Tatars, it would be a good thing, but I'm afraid..."
Xue Chen raised his head when he heard this: "I'm afraid those general cannons distributed by the imperial court are just decorations."
Prince Shunyang nodded: "Your Majesty ordered the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of War to supervise this matter, but this kind of allocation of military resources cannot be accomplished overnight. To put it bluntly, Zhang Yuchi should not have been allowed to guard the northern border."
Song Chengxuan had already anticipated this situation. It was impossible for the emperor to suppress the Zhang family at this time, and the emperor would use the Zhang family to contain him.
"Besides," said the Prince of Shunyang County, "the Emperor and the Queen Mother have selected a dozen girls of the right age to fill the harem." Everyone knows the emperor's thoughts. Only with heirs can his status be stable. The Queen Mother naturally hopes that the Zhang family or the Zhang family will be together.
When a woman from a related family becomes pregnant with the emperor's heir, there will inevitably be another fight.
Xu Qinghuan looked at Song Chengxuan. She mentioned to Mr. Song that the emperor in the previous life had a son, but the child was too weak. Zhang Jingshu blamed the queen. She said that the resentment after the queen's death was not eliminated, causing harm to the emperor's children. The emperor listened.
There are some rumors that although the Zhang family was punished, the queen will be buried in the golden coffin, and there will never be any mention of the emperor and empress being buried together.
At the time of the Queen's funeral, the emperor promised to bury the Queen in the imperial mausoleum, thinking that this would make the Queen full of grief and honor after her death. In fact, the Yu family did not want this result from the bottom of their hearts. Not only was the Emperor still young, but Queen Yu did not know what to do.
How many years to wait, and Queen Yu was harmed by the emperor in her life, and she couldn't get rid of it while she was alive. Naturally, the farther away from the emperor the better after death, so the emperor's final arrangement for the queen in the previous life was also welcomed by the Yu family.
Song Chengxuan said: "The emperor wants the Zhang family to guard the Xuanfu. The imperial court will send people to Nurgan next. After Nurgan is stabilized, it can be free to deal with Southeast."
Xue Chen said: "The Tatars are already strong and strong. The emperor does not try to take precautions, but still thinks about how to fight. This is really disappointing."
There was talk in the room, and Brother Chen's babbling could be heard outside. It must be that the steward outside did not stop Xu Qing'an, and allowed Xu Qing'an to lead Brother Chen into mischief.
Prince Shunyang smiled and said, "Brother Chen also wants to say a few words."
The serious atmosphere in the room suddenly disappeared, and Xu Qinghuan got up to take care of Brother Chen.
Xue Chen looked at Song Chengxuan with a smile: "It is a great blessing for me to have such a virtuous wife, and I am very fortunate for the Southeast."
Song Chengxuan's eyes moved slightly, and his eyes were clearer than before.
"Young Master," Zhao Tong came in to report, "there is news in the capital that the Queen Mother Qianqiu, the imperial court has also sent documents to the southeast, asking the wife and the young master to come to the capital to celebrate together."
Xue Chen's complexion changed slightly.
Song Chengxuan said: "First stop the people sent by the imperial court and not allow them to enter Changzhou."
Zhao Tong responded and immediately went to deliver the message.
Prince Shunyang said: "Why don't I go back to Beijing to deal with it."
Song Chengxuan shook his head, thinking of Qing Huan's previous life when he was detained in Beijing, the emperor and the queen mother came up with this method to contain him.
"I'm going to write a memorial. The battle with the Japanese at sea has caused old wounds. I'm afraid I won't be able to serve as the commander of Changzhou." Song Chengxuan said calmly, "Please ask the imperial court to send another person to Changzhou."
Song Chengxuan stood up after saying this: "I will ask someone to send a gift to the capital to celebrate the Queen Mother's birthday."
With the current situation in Changzhou, no one in the imperial court would dare to come to serve, so the emperor was destined to have no choice but to comfort him and let Mrs. Xu stay and take good care of Governor Song.
Song Chengxuan's expression remained as usual: "If the imperial court wants to arrest me, it can issue an explicit order. There is no use in doing so secretly."
After several people finished talking, Song Chengxuan walked out of the room. Watching Song Chengxuan take Brother Chen from Xu Qinghuan's hand, the smile on Xue Chen's face deepened.
"Master Xue has been optimistic about the Xu family from the beginning?" came the voice of Prince Shunyang.
"of course not……"
The last word was not spoken, and Xue Chen immediately came back to his senses. He looked at the old fox, King Shunyang, and it was not that easy to trick him.
The Prince of Shunyang County said: "The Xu family is a treasure. For my son to marry such a virtuous woman, he is worthy of being the most outstanding son in our Prince of Shunyang County."
Xue Chen's mouth twitched. He was so humble when he praised his son like this.
Prince Shunyang said sternly: "I am serious, this marriage will definitely make our descendants of Prince Shunyang prosperous. I have received the dream from my ancestors."
Xue Chen became a little curious: "In a dream?"
Prince Shunyang nodded: "When I got married, my father dreamed that he had a mouth on his forehead. Sure enough, I had an only son like Defang."
Xue Chen only thought this was funny, because only the Wang family of Shunyang County would dream of such a strange thing as a mouth on their forehead.
"I also had a dream last night," Prince Shunyang came over, "Master Xue, maybe you can guess what it was?"
Xue Chen said: "You also have a mouth on your forehead."
"No," King Shunyang was very excited, "I dreamed that my whole body was covered with mouths. You said how many descendants I would have. Unfortunately, I didn't have time to count them at that time. Otherwise, if I think about it, Mr. Xue, help me.
Count." He rolled up his sleeves and prepared to elaborate.
Xue Chen strode outside. He wanted to stay away from this man who was full of mouths.
"Don't go," said the Prince of Shunyang County, "I still have many things I haven't said."
…
Zhao Ruzhen came out of the silk reeling workshop and went all the way back to Zhao's house. As soon as she got off the carriage, she heard the steward's mother say: "Your Majesty, why are you here?"
Zhao Ruzhen bent down and got out of the car, and saw Xu Qingan with a sad face.
"What's going on, Prince?" Zhao Ruzhen's heart sank.
Zhao Ruzhen hurriedly asked the whole story, and she couldn't help but feel relieved when she found out that this was what happened.
Xu Qingan said: "Sister Ruzhen already knew?"
I'm afraid Xu Qing'an was the only one who often visited Qing Huan's place and didn't know about it. However, seeing Xu Qing'an like this, she couldn't bear it and shook her head gently: "I just heard about it too."
"I will take revenge on him." Xu Qingan frowned and vowed.
Zhao Ruzhen said: "It is a happy event after all. If the prince embarrasses the prince of Shunyang County, wouldn't it embarrass Mr. Xu Wu's family?"
But Xu Qingan looked firm: "I can't just let him go. I've already figured out how to retaliate."
Zhao Ruzhen listened to the rest of the story.
Xu Qing'an took out a brocade box from his arms and handed it to Zhao Ruzhen: "Sister Ruzhen, take the things and don't tell Qi Defang, I will also keep him in the dark."
Zhao Ruzhen looked at the brocade box, and then at Xu Qingan with drooped eyes, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart. This was probably the most unbelievable excuse she had ever heard, and the prince didn't look pitiful at this moment.
Make her feel funny.
"The reeling cart that the Crown Prince gave me is very useful," Zhao Ruzhen pursed her lips and took out a purse from her sleeve, "I want to give you something to thank the Crown Prince."
Zhao Ruzhen's cheeks were slightly red and she handed the purse to Xu Qing'an, but Xu Qing'an jumped up as if he had been stabbed in the butt: "I gave these to make you happy, not to get anything in return. I can't accept them..."
Zhao Ruzhen was speechless in surprise, and the hand she extended was also in the air. Xu Qingan slipped away like a gust of wind. Meng Lingyun, who was hiding in the corner to watch the situation, was so anxious that he stamped his feet on the spot. The prince must have lost his mind.
.
It took Zhao Ruzhen a while to come to her senses, and she reluctantly put away her purse. Just as she was about to walk into the yard, she heard Xu Qingan's voice coming from behind.
"Sister Ruzhen, I regret it. Then give me the purse, okay?"
