Chapter 120 Meeting Lechun

The villa of Duke Yi's mansion in Qishan is called Xiange Bieyuan, which was taken from the previous dynasty's "Xiange Peaceful Day, Let's Enjoy Jianyinchun", so the main hall is logically Lechun Hall.

Lechun Hall is built near the water, leading the gurgling mountain stream, lingering around, leaving only Tingbu stone in and out.

This season the lotus blooms just right, and the fragrance of the lotus fills the room with water vapor.

Yun Zhao stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back, overlooking the mountains and forests, and suddenly remembered something about his eldest daughter when she was a child. At that time, Emperor Xiaozong had just ascended the throne, and he was one of the most important ministers in Tuogu, so he was very busy.

Even if you come to escape the summer heat, you have no time to go to the backyard.

Yun Shuangyu was still young at that time, she missed her father, and while Mrs. Yi Guogong was not paying attention, she sneaked into the Lechun Hall to check her brain, but she accidentally fell into the stream...

At that time, he always felt that after such a busy period, when the status of the emperor was stabilized, and he was killed in Jiyu, he would be able to live up to the entrustment of Emperor Shenzong, hang his seal and leave, and use the rest of his life to compensate his wife and children. He thought that the future would be long, so after hearing the news, he ordered someone to send Yun Shuangyu back to the backyard and give it to his wife to take care of.

Even afterwards, it was learned that Yun Shuangyu had caught a cold and developed a fever, but because of a conflict between Emperor Xiaozong and Ye Guogong in the palace, he hurried to the Circus instead of visiting.

Mrs. Yi Guogong blamed him for this matter, and also suspected that he did not value his daughter-in-law. However, Yun Shuangyu always helped her father to speak, and she tried to persuade Mrs. Yi Guogong with a serious and childish voice. Yi Guogong only saw it once by chance, and the rest were probably his wife's occasional nagging after his daughter entered the palace.

In fact, Yun Shuangyu didn't want to enter the palace, but the Yun clan had been important ministers since the founding of the country.

When Emperor Shenzong died, he entrusted Emperor Xiaozong to Yunzhao.

But Xiaozong died in depression, and he didn't do a few good things until his death——Yunzhao always felt sorry for Shenzong and Xiaozong. He once swore before Emperor Shenzong's sick bed that he would help Xiaozong well. As a result, Xiaozong even had an heir nothing. Although Emperor Chunjia was not Xiaozong's own flesh and blood, his official adoptive heir was ultimately Xiaozong's descendant.

At that time, Chunjia came to the imperial capital to ascend the throne, orphans, widows and mothers were weak, and the harem from the empress dowager to the empress dowager to empress Ji was all Ji's daughters.

One can imagine how difficult it must be for their mother and son in the palace.

Under the banner of the empress dowager, the Ji family refused to let the emperor touch political affairs at all under the pretext that the new emperor should go to school first instead of rushing to the court because he is young. In the long run, it is conceivable that the ministers can't even communicate with the emperor, let alone support the emperor in the future?

In this case, you can only send your own daughter into the palace to communicate with the inside and outside.

Yun Zhao abides by the rules of this time, respects his main wife, pays attention to his concubines, concubines do business, and has never had a deep affection for concubine sons and concubine daughters. At first he wanted the concubine's daughter to enter the palace, but usually the full power of the inner house was given to the main wife, and he never asked. When it was time to send my daughter to the palace, I realized that several concubine daughters of the right age were timidly raised under strict rules, and it was difficult to become a climate.

If he entered the palace, he might not be able to survive a few rounds under the hands of three generations of Ji's daughters, and his head would be lost in vain.

When he was in a difficult situation, Yun Shuangyu stood up and offered to share his father's worries.

Yun Zhao thought melancholy, what would have happened to the eldest daughter if she hadn't entered the palace? She will marry a well-matched husband, bear children for him, respect her parents-in-law, and love her brothers and sisters, these are not difficult for Yun Shuangyu. Coupled with the power of Duke Yi's mansion, she will have a good life.

During the holidays, you can bring your children back to the government to visit relatives.

Those grandchildren would be like Yun Shuangyao when she was a child, sneaking to the vicinity of Lechun Hall, playing and playing in the knee-high stream, making the quiet hall noisy.

However, after Yun Shuangyu entered the palace, even though Xiange Bieyuan and Qishan Palace were within easy reach, it was difficult for her to take a single step from now on.

She was also pregnant, but the miscarriage was premature.

To be filial to the empress dowagers, to be kind to the emperor's younger brothers and sisters... but in the end, he still died, and he still doesn't know what died?

Yunzhao understands Chunjia's difficulties, although after the summer banquet this person started to take charge, after all, the Ji family has been in power for many years, and the centipede is dead but not stiff.

The emperor is far from the point where he can kill with one word. According to the environment he is in, he is actually doing very well.

Ke Yunzhao still felt unspeakably sad.

Yun's lineage had been granted titles in the previous dynasty, and when Shenzong Tuogu was in charge, he was specially named Duke Yi.

...It is hoped that he can give wings to the new king.

He has been working hard so far, and the most frightened went to the underground without face to face the first emperor, and face the ancestors without face.

However, when he saw Yun Shuangyu in the future, would he be able to face it?

"Master Jiang, Mrs. Jiang is here." The servant's report interrupted Yun Zhao's thoughts. He closed his eyes and collected himself. When he opened them, he was already calm, and said in a deep voice: "Please!"

The Jiang family led the young Chen family and the Qing people into the Lechun Hall, and saw Duke Yi at the top.

This Duke is considered to be two years younger than her, Jiang's hair is still full of black hair, but Duke Yi's temples are already white with frost.

Is it caused by years of hard work in state affairs, or the pain of losing a daughter not long ago... Jiang shi faintly speculated in his heart, and stepped forward to salute.

Duke Yi called out in a calm tone, asked her to sit down again, and then asked kindly if Jiang was used to living in Xiange Bieyuan? If you have any request, you can tell Mrs. Yi Guogong, and if the servant is neglected, you can mention it.

"This time I'm saying goodbye to the Duke." Jiang smiled and said, "The children and nephews in the family have been studying for many years, and they have been hesitant to go to the test. Two days ago, His Majesty congratulated the Empress Dowager, and granted a special favor Ke, my nephew and nephew wandered around for many years, finally mustered up the courage to leave, and will arrive soon. These days, the women, mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law have already disturbed the house very much, how can we let them bother the cleanliness of the house?"

It seemed to be an ordinary exchange of greetings, but in fact, a trick had been done quietly: Duke Yi greeted the guests as soon as he came up. Apart from being polite, there was no lack of intention to use the identity of the host to psychologically suppress the Jiang family. He was already in high position and powerful, but now Jiang's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law eat other people's food and drink other people's food...how can they be disrespectful to their master?

If Jiang's mentality is a little weak, it can't be said that his momentum will be taken away, and then he can only be led away by Duke Yi.

She simply thought about it before she came, and directly said that she was planning to move out—this is not the point, the point is that she mentioned that her nephews will participate in next year's Enke, and they will be there soon—the north and the imperial capital Distance, if the Jiang family had notified Enke when the news came out, I am afraid that the news has not been sent back yet!

Therefore, Jiang's nephews could only have expected Enke next year and left early!

This is not difficult for those who are familiar with temples to guess. After the summer banquet, the emperor took charge of the government and seemed to have won the game. The Yuan family and the Qu family were not enough to support him in the temple.

It's hard to rely on Yiguo's government alone.

The fastest and most convenient way to enrich one's strength is to use Enke to quickly recruit a batch of students to enrich one's wings.

In fact, not only Xie's children, since the news of the emperor's pro-government spread, many scholars from the whole country rushed to the imperial capital - if the emperor failed to win Jiakai Enke, it would be a waste of time. , if you guessed right, then you may have embarked on a broad road.

After all, many scholars didn't have time to participate in this sudden addition of Enke because of the long distance and the late receipt of the news.

This has already indirectly eliminated a group of competitors, not to mention after being ranked, in normal times, Xinke Scholars are mainly based on observing politics, and the outsiders are also started by county magistrates, so they will not be easily exposed to the real core power .

But now that the emperor is in urgent need of manpower, he will definitely not let them take their time to get through the qualifications - this point can be seen in Wei Changkong when Emperor Xiaozong was in power. The emperor personally escorted him and promoted him in a different way.

For the vast majority of scholars, this is definitely a pie in the sky, which is hard to come by.

Duke Yi has given many confidants word of mouth these days. Of course, the Ji family and the regent king must have done a lot of action. Although this is the first time that the emperor personally presided over Chunwei, there is still a contest between the monarch and his ministers about how many people in the group who stand against the emperor's disciples are loyal to the emperor.

But the Xie family does not belong to this kind of foresight family, they are just a local big family, and there is no one in the temple.

Being able to participate now, it can be seen that there are talents in the clan who can see the whole leopard at a glance.

It is by no means an ordinary country house.

Duke Yi's eyes narrowed slightly, he stroked his short beard, and smiled: "I have heard that Madam is virtuous, and the children in the family must also be Zhilan Yushu. We are all relatives, and your love is even adopted by my Yun family. The family is not an outsider. Now that you have come to the Imperial Capital, why do you need to meet someone else and choose another place? It is convenient for me to take care of you in my residence."

"Grandpa's absurd praise." Jiang explained softly, "Xie has been in the frontier for a long time, and the etiquette is neglected. The children in the family are stubborn and unruly. I am afraid that they will run into your residence. It caused a lot of trouble..."

Afterwards, the two sides exchanged some courteous greetings on whether the Xie family's children should borrow the Duke's mansion. In the end, at Jiang's insistence, they still decided to move out in two days—she had already bought an other courtyard nearby. And sent people to the imperial capital to find a suitable house——after returning to the imperial capital, they gathered the descendants of the Xie family who had ended up this time, and then went to the Duke's mansion to pay a visit together.

After finalizing the matter, they boasted to each other about the intelligence, alertness, filial piety and considerateness of each other's children. Duke Yi saw that the time was about the same, so he served tea to see off the guests.

When Mrs. Jiang returned to the guest house, Mrs. Xie, who had been waiting here for a long time, rushed up to meet her and asked, "How is it?"

"It's been decided." Jiang nodded to her, and comforted her, "If the Duke is willing to meet, he must plan to talk, otherwise, given the disparity in power and status between the Duke's Mansion and Mrs. Xie, if he doesn't want to shake hands And, why bother?"

In fact, things are not that simple. After Concubine Shu left, Han's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law went to Lanzhou Yeyu Pavilion to meet Yun Fenghuang, which was a hasty defeat. In the end, Yunqike almost killed Yunfenghuang with a knife - this kind of rich family has always been good at playing one trick in front of the other.

Jiang himself is such a person, of course he understands that the reconciliation hinted by Yi Guogong today may not be reliable, and it may also be to stabilize her so that he can do it secretly.

But it doesn't matter, she doesn't trust the Yun family, and she doesn't intend to just let it go like this—Yi Guogong and his wife can't forget the death of their eldest daughter, and she can't reveal that her daughter was cheated into the palace and lost her fertility!

All she wanted was to express her opinion on the scene of Yi Guogong, so that she could change her daughter's personality.

At this moment, Xie Shi was perfunctory with a few words, sent people away, and asked Qingdu who stayed behind: "Is everyone here for Fenghuang?"
