Wang Yufeng was very well-behaved. When she saw Liu Ziqiu's expression changed, she hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, I have lost contact with my father for many years. I am willing to serve Your Majesty with all my heart. I will never have any dissent. I hope Your Majesty will be considerate."
Liu Ziqiu waved his hand and said: "Wang Shichong can be regarded as a tycoon of the generation. I don't care about what happened back then. You don't have to worry about it. However, since you are Wang Shichong, I can't treat you badly, so I will give you a title."
Princess Jiangdu, what do you think?"
Gao Xiuer looked at Wang Yufeng, then at Liu Ziqiu, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty can just list her as the ninth concubine, so why bother."
Although everything in the canonization ceremony back then was simple, the status of the concubines in the harem was determined. According to that regulation, Liu Ziqiu should have 122 women. And until now, even after accepting Xie Xiangwen and Yuan Ziyan
, Liu Ziqiu only has eight women. Although from the bottom of her heart, no woman would be willing to share her husband with others, Gao Xiuer's identity is the queen, and virtuousness is the most important virtue, but she does not want to be said to be jealous.
, so she deliberately encouraged Liu Ziqiu to take Wang Yufeng into the harem. Of course, the most important thing was that she heard that Liu Ziqiu wanted to make Wang Yufeng the princess, so she misunderstood what Liu Ziqiu meant.
Hua Yun looked at Wang Yufeng with a complicated expression. She knew that Liu Ziqiu liked women with big breasts, and she probably dressed up as a man since she was a child and had too many breasts, so the place was indeed a bit small. When she kept Wang Yufeng by her side, that was
Seeing that Wang Yufeng had a pair of big breasts at such a young age, she wanted to learn some experience from Wang Yufeng. However, Wang Yufeng's figure was natural, so there was no experience to learn from. Hua Yun kept Wang Yufeng here.
.In addition, Wang Yufeng was tall and had some strength, so she did some chores in her palace. Now, if Liu Ziqiu takes a fancy to Wang Yufeng and makes her the ninth concubine, I don’t know if she will hate him. Of course, Hua Yun will also
She won't be afraid. After all, she is one of the four ladies, and her status is more noble than the ninth concubine. Moreover, the relationship between her and Liu Ziqiu was cultivated in battle, so it is naturally indestructible.
But Liu Ziqiu suddenly said something irrelevant: "Zhiwu isn't married yet, is he?"
After Xie Zhiwen married Qin Fengqin, Liu Ziqiu also intended to bring Xie Zhiwu and Yuan Ziyan together. However, Yuan Ziyan believed in his astrological skills and only had Liu Ziqiu in his eyes. After getting along for a long time, Liu Ziqiu gradually accepted her and put Xie Zhiwu's matter aside.
.When I mention it at this moment, it naturally has a profound meaning.
Although only Xie Muyu knew about the relationship between Gao Xiuer and the Xie family, this did not prevent her from paying attention to the Xie family. Therefore, she knew about Xie Zhiwu's situation and couldn't help but wonder: "Zhiwu does have someone he likes, but he is worried that His Majesty will be angry, so he
It’s been a waste of time.”
Liu Ziqiu said in surprise: "Oh, whose girl does Zhiwu like?"
Gao Xiuer whispered: "Miss Mingyue from the Li family in Longxi."
"Li Mingyue? That girl is not bad." Liu Ziqiu laughed loudly, "Li Mingyue and Zhiwu are a perfect match, how can I be angry!"
At first, Li Changfeng had intended to offer Li Mingyue to Liu Ziqiu, but Liu Ziqiu politely declined. However, Li Changfeng did not give up and followed Li Mingyue to Luoyang City. At the beginning, Li Mingyue often entered the palace. After Liu Ziqiu found out, he deliberately avoided her.
. As time went by, there was no news about Li Mingyue, and Liu Ziqiu almost forgot about her, but unexpectedly she came together with Xie Zhiwu.
Just listening to Gao Xiuer's words, Liu Ziqiu felt a little strange. He did like to be a matchmaker, but he had never done anything like beating mandarin ducks. If Li Changfeng once wanted to dedicate Li Mingyue to himself, it would make Li Mingyue dare not marry for the rest of his life.
Wouldn’t that make him look too domineering?
Gao Xiuer sighed and said: "The Xie family is at its peak, and the Li family has the potential to surpass the six traditional aristocratic families. If these two powerful families join forces..."
Liu Ziqiu understood that they were not worried that Liu Ziqiu was jealous, but that the marriage between the two largest aristocratic families would arouse the emperor's suspicion. Historical experience proved that the emperor's suspicion was definitely not a trivial matter, even if the most powerful
Once a favored minister is jealous of the emperor, his family will be destroyed instantly without any warning. In fact, there are not a few marriages between aristocratic families. But the sons and ladies of the aristocratic families are also divided into three, six or nine grades.
When it comes to this kind of marriage between direct descendants, every aristocratic family will be very cautious, let alone a marriage between two top aristocratic families.
Thinking of this, Liu Ziqiu shook his head unconsciously: "Don't worry, I'm not the kind of person who likes to be jealous. If the Xie and Li families really want to rebel against me, it doesn't matter whether they are married or not. If they are loyal to me,
After the marriage, it will be a great help to me. Therefore, it is just a marriage, how can I be angry? I will personally issue the decree to grant them a marriage!"
However, Xie Muyu became excited first and bowed to Liu Ziqiu Yingying: "I thank your majesty on behalf of my second brother!"
Liu Ziqiu hurriedly helped her up and scolded her: "Don't move around, you may injure the fetal air."
Xie Muyu had already transformed from a girl into a woman, but Liu Ziqiu insisted on waiting until she was over eighteen years old before letting her conceive a child. It was precisely because the little life in her belly arrived so late that Xie Muyu was better than anyone else.
She became even more nervous and quickly stood up, gently stroking her slightly bulging abdomen with her little hands and never letting go.
Hua Yun couldn't help laughing when she saw Xie Muyu's actions. She smiled and joked: "The emperor is just teasing you. It's not so easy to get pregnant."
Xie Muyu was still cautious: "That's not sure, what if it happens?"
Yes, who can tell clearly about things in the world? If you are not afraid of ten thousand, you are afraid of the worst. Xie Muyu’s words reminded Hua Yun. If Wang Yufeng is really favored by Liu Ziqiu, and she happens to hold a grudge against herself, what if?
What should we do in this situation? Hua Yun couldn't help but become nervous, pointed at Wang Yufeng and asked: "Your Majesty, how should she deal with it?"
Not only Gao Xiuer, but Hua Yun also saw that Liu Ziqiu's original intention was to make Wang Yufeng the princess and then marry her to Xie Zhiwu. Now that Liu Ziqiu has given marriage to Xie Zhiwu and Li Mingyue, it is impossible to marry Wang Yufeng again.
Give it to Xie Zhiwu. Because as long as Liu Ziqiu's edict is issued, Wang Yufeng will have the status of the princess. How can the princess be a mistress for others? Unless that person is Liu Ziqiu himself.
But Liu Ziqiu laughed loudly: "I want to issue an edict to the world, pardon Wang Shichong for the sins he committed in the past, and gather talents from all over the world to recruit a county horse for Wang Yufeng!"
Wang Yufeng waved her hands in panic and said repeatedly: "Your Majesty, slave, I will not marry anyone."
Hua Yun's face sank and he shouted: "How dare you disobey the emperor's will! Why don't you thank me quickly!"
Wang Yufeng then fell to the ground and kowtowed: "Thank you Lord for your kindness."
Liu Ziqiu smiled, but did not reveal Hua Yun's little thoughts. He turned to Gao Xiu'er and said, "Xiu'er, please work hard and arrange a palace for Princess Jiangdu."
Gao Xiuer nodded, her heart full of surprise. She initially thought that Liu Ziqiu was going to take Wang Yufeng into the harem, but she never expected such a result. It stands to reason that Wang Shichong had oppressed Changshan Village and the Xie family in Moling, and even forced
Thanks to Mu Yu's family fortune, his crimes were heinous. Even if Liu Ziqiu had a lot of people and didn't care about him, he would at most demote his daughter to a commoner and let her fend for herself. How could he make her a princess and choose her for her?
A husband.
…
After several years of development, the entire Han Dynasty has formed a complete post system. This post system can be used by both military and civilians. It can not only convey various military information, but also deliver letters to the people. Of course, various government orders from the court
It was also transmitted to every corner of the Han Dynasty through this post system. Under normal circumstances, it only took three months for a government order to be sent from Luoyang to the most remote countryside. In this era, the efficiency was already quite amazing.
The edict that named Wang Yufeng the princess of Jiangdu and publicly selected her son-in-law was also transmitted to all parts of the country through this post system. The edict pardoned Wang Shichong's sins and announced that three talent selection conferences would be held in Luoyang in the coming spring.
Only the talented and beautiful young people who stand out from the three conferences are qualified to enter the final level, where the princess Wang Yufeng will personally select the right man. In other words, Liu Ziqiu has arranged eight months between now and the talent selection conference.
.Such a long time is enough for those young men who think they can come out on top to rush to Luoyang City.
Longxi County was one of the territories Liu Ziqiu occupied earlier, and the post road system here was more developed. Half a month later, the news that Wang Yufeng was going to publicly select the county horse spread throughout the streets. In a manor on the outskirts of Zhang County, Longxi County
Inside, Li Yuan and his son were sitting opposite each other, with this edict in front of them.
In Longxi, the power of the Li family has already penetrated into all aspects of social life. However, although Li Yuan's surname was Li, he was not accepted into the Li family by Li Changshan because he was once hostile to Liu Ziqiu. Therefore, the Li Yuan family can only be regarded as ordinary people here.
Rich family. Of course, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. When Li Yuan moved here from Luoyang, he also brought a large amount of gold and silver, bought a large area of land, and lived a good life. However, various information sources
In terms of aspects, it is much worse than the real Li family.
They received the edict relatively late. The most important thing was that Li Yuan could not understand the true meaning of Liu Ziqiu's issuance of this edict. However, with Li Yuan's shrewdness, he did not believe that Liu Ziqiu would easily pardon Wang Shichong, his mortal enemy, let alone
Maybe he was kind enough to recruit a county horse for his daughter, and there must be some conspiracy behind it.
Li Yuan took the copied edict and read it over and over for a long time. Finally, he dropped it on a few cases and muttered: "Shimin, what do you think of this matter?"
