Fei Lian understood the idea and went out to report: "I think what the old prime minister said is reasonable. In the past, Yao and Shun lived together with the people, transformed the world with benevolence and virtue, did not engage in war, did not engage in killing, the stars shone in the sky, and the dew fell.
, the phoenix stops in the courtyard, the grass grows in the wild; the people are prosperous, the pedestrians give way, the dogs do not bark, it rains at night and the day is clear, and the rice grows double ears; this is a sign of the prosperity of the Tao. If the princes are selected in each town
Beautiful women are afraid of laboring the people and damaging their wealth, which is contrary to the way of prosperity."
When the ministers heard that Fei Lian, who had always been close to Fei Zhong, actually echoed Shang Rong's advice, they all looked surprised. Even Shang Rong himself was unexpected. Zhang Zixing was greatly surprised and couldn't figure out what Fei Lian was doing.
What kind of abacus was it, but he didn't want to adopt Fei Zhong's opinion in the first place, so he said: "What the Second Minister said is very good, but it is not feasible to select beautiful women in this way."
Fei Lian added: "Your Majesty's virtue of loving the people is well known to me and to all the people, and is admired by the world. I believe that what Dr. Fei said is true. Enriching the harem and extending the clan are important matters for the family and the country, and cannot be ignored. I
During a recent visit, the old Prime Minister Shang Rong had a daughter. She was beautiful, graceful, and gentle. She was also naturally wise and talented. She said that she would only marry talented people. Many people came to propose to her, but they all came back feeling inferior.
.Your Majesty is a genius and has unparalleled knowledge. His three great books are admired by the world and respected by all people. Even if he is the saint Fuxi, he is nothing more than this. I believe that this woman is a good match for your Majesty. How about choosing the daughter of one person?
But not disturbing the people of the world is actually the best of both worlds."
Zhang Zixing and Shang Rong were both surprised when they heard this. What shocked Zhang Zixing was that Fei Lian was admonishing him to take a concubine? Or was he doing this to please him because he knew that it was the emperor himself who came to punish the evil in Dongshi that day?
Action? After thinking about it, it should not be the latter. When Shang Rong saw Fei Lian showing him a "friendly" smile, he realized the true meaning of Fei Lian's sentence "I want to repay the Prime Minister" the day before, and was confused for a moment.
Fei Lian's idea seemed really good, especially the phrase "choose a woman without disturbing the people", which won the support of many ministers. Even Zhao Qi and Mei Bo, who had always been at odds with Fei Lian's politics, expressed their approval.
Fan originally intended to recommend his daughter Wei Yuan to enter the palace, but after hesitating for a long time, he finally did not propose it.
Seeing that so many ministers agreed, Zhang Zixing thought that he could marry Shang Qingjun openly and made up his mind to end the underground love affair. Then he asked Shang Rong, "What do you think, Prime Minister?"
Shang Rong was hesitant for a moment. Marrying his daughter to the emperor was naturally an extremely glorious thing. He could also become a relative of the state and enjoy wealth forever. In the eyes of ordinary people, it was a happy event that he would agree to without even thinking about it. However, Shang Rong
He is a veteran of three dynasties and has served as the prime minister of the Great Shang Dynasty for many years. He has a thorough understanding of power struggles. The palace is as deep as the ocean, and there are also undercurrents and whirlpools, which are dangerous. If you don't go to the court, it will be a blessing or a curse for your daughter to enter the palace.
It's hard to say yet.
In his later years, Shang Rong got a daughter, a precious treasure. He once promised her to choose her own son-in-law because he wanted her daughter to find a home she liked, even if the husband was just a small official. Judging from this era, the old prime minister was very enlightened.
The problem is that all the ministers now agree with him to marry his daughter into the palace. Even the emperor has personally inquired about it. The situation is forcing him to refuse.
"Old minister... thank you for your grace!" Shang Rong thought about it again and again, but agreed. His daughter Qingjun has been very smart since she was a child, and has outstanding talents and learning. She has a very high position in choosing a son-in-law. She has said many times that only those who are better at learning will marry.
She looked down upon her people, the high-ranking officials and nobles who came to propose marriage. As the years passed, her daughter was almost nineteen years old, but she still had not found the one she wanted. This difficult marriage had also become a worry for her father.
Nowadays, the emperor is both civil and military, and his talent is recognized as unparalleled. If matched with his daughter, he is definitely more than enough. What's more, the emperor attaches great importance to friendship. In the five years since he came to the throne, he has been in love with the three concubines in the harem. Except for Dong Qi Yue Concubine, he has never married again.
, the number of four concubines is shabby for an ordinary official, let alone the current emperor. From this perspective, it is not a bad thing for a daughter to become a concubine in the palace.
Seeing that Shang Rong had agreed, all the ministers congratulated the emperor one after another. Zhang Zixing was so happy that he summoned the ceremony officials and chose an auspicious day to accept Shang Qingjun as his concubine in two months.
After the dispersion of the dynasty, Zhang Zixing did not bother to inform the queen about the concubine, and hurriedly left the palace in secret. Today was the day that Deng Chanyu left. The day before yesterday, she and Shang Qingjun made an appointment to see her off at the south gate of Chaoge.
When they arrived at Wuliu Pavilion outside the south gate, they saw only Deng Chanyu but not Shang Qingjun. After asking, they found out that Deng Chanyu had forgotten to buy her mother's favorite pear cake, and Shang Qingjun was riding a carriage to buy it for her.
When Deng Chanyu saw him, she looked a little forced to smile. It turned out that she received a message from her master yesterday, asking her to deliver the medicine to Sanshan Pass and then return to the cave to practice. It might take several years. Zhang Zixing heard that it would take a few years.
Having only been able to meet her for so many years, I am inevitably a little disappointed, but Deng Chanyu is still young, and this seemingly strong chivalrous girl actually has a good impression of him. Even if this is just a girl's vague feelings, it is still a good start.
In addition to giving her a large number of crystal stones, Zhang Zixing thought of something else and took out the Suzaku Xuan Dou, the trophy he got from Qingjiao, and gave it to Deng Chanyu as a gift. Unexpectedly, when Deng Chanyu saw this frivolous guy, he actually gave it to his daughter's home.
I gave him a secret "bellyband" and didn't give him a chance to explain. I almost beat him to a pig's head. After a while, I realized that it was a misunderstanding.
In the world of cultivation, most people advocate attack first, and there are endless offensive magic weapons. However, defensive magic weapons are relatively scarce due to the difficulty and complexity of refining them. Deng Chanyu was grateful in her heart, but she still spoke harshly and regarded the Suzaku Xuandou as frivolous compensation.
The product was "confiscated" in a grand manner and put into the magic bag, which made Zhang Zixing feel ashamed.
Another gift really touched Deng Chanyu. It was a fine brushwork painting personally painted by Zhang Zixing. The colors were rich and the painting was exquisite, almost to the point of revealing every detail. The woman in the painting was dressed in green clothes, beautiful and heroic.
, it was her. At that time, the development of painting technology was still at a relatively rudimentary level. Deng Chanyu had never seen this painting technique that only became popular in the Tang Dynasty. She was stunned and couldn't put it down, as if it were a mortal thing without any fluctuations in magic power.
It is more precious than those rare magic weapons.
When Zhang Zixing was still the King of Longevity, in order to please Jiang Wenqiang and Yang Jiu, he specially transferred the painting skills from the super brain and input them into his brain. Now he has really built a new skill. After Deng Chanyu carefully put the painting scroll into the magic bag, he hesitated for a moment.
, took out a green jade pendant from his arms and gave it to him.
Zhang Zixing took it and took a look, and saw that the jade pendant was green and white, with the green part naturally forming a phoenix-like pattern. It looked very precious. He knew that this object must be extremely important to Deng Chanyu, so he quickly and solemnly
Keep it.
Deng Chanyu saw him carefully putting it under his underwear, her cheeks flushed for no apparent reason. Just as she was about to speak, she suddenly heard the sound of horse hoofbeats. The two of them saw that the carriage Shang Qingjun was riding in was heading this way.
Come.
Deng Chanyu was startled and quickly lowered her voice and said to Zhang Zixing: "Little thief, this green phoenix jade pendant is an heirloom of my family. If you lose it, even if you escape to the ends of the world, I will not let you go! Also, don't let my sister do it."
See this jade pendant!"
After saying that, he quickly distanced himself from him, as if someone was a plague and could not be avoided.
Zhang Zixing's eyes lit up - a family heirloom? Is this the legendary token of love?
Deng Chanyu looked at his charming smile, fearing that he would take out his jade pendant to show off in front of Shang Qingjun. Just as he was about to threaten him fiercely, the carriage had already arrived in front of Wuliu Pavilion.
Shang Qingjun gave the baggage containing the pear blossom cake to Deng Chanyu, and also brought some snacks for her to eat on the way: "It's a long way to Sanshanguan. Although you have martial arts, you must be careful..."
Thinking that the separation between the two would take at least a few years, Shang Qingjun felt sad and his voice choked up.
Deng Chanyu and Shang Qingjun have known each other since childhood and have a deep relationship. Their eyes are red: "Sister, of course, don't worry. Sister, please don't worry."
As she said that, she glared at Zhang Zixing who was next to Shang Qingjun: "Little thief, you must treat your sister well. If I knew what wrongs she suffered in your family, I would never let you go!"
Zhang Zixing glanced at Shang Qingjun and said, "Don't worry, I plan to propose marriage to the Prime Minister's Mansion in the near future. I will fully support her and will never let her suffer any grievances."
When Shang Qingjun heard the news, she couldn't help but panic. She never told her father about herself and Mr. Zixing because she was worried that his father would oppose the marriage. The day before yesterday, she introduced Zhang Zixing to Wu Yu, mainly for the purpose of
She got support from her father's friend for this matter. Unfortunately, Zhang Zixing and Wu Yu didn't get along. Before she could think of a better way, she heard that Zhang Zixing was coming to propose marriage so soon, and she suddenly became nervous.
Get up - how did she know that at today's court meeting, Shang Rong had agreed to send her to the palace as a concubine, and Zhang Zixing's "can't wait" proposal at this time was just a temporary prank. He wanted to give her something by then.
What a big surprise.
"In that case, I would like to congratulate my sister first." When Deng Chanyu said this, there was a look of envy in her eyes that could not be concealed. "When my sister is happy, my sister will definitely come to congratulate her."
Zhang Zixing took advantage of the situation and asked: "I wonder who the master of Miss Chanyu is. Will you be allowed to come?"
"Little thief, you have always wanted to know the answer to this question," Deng Chanyu said with a slight smile: "My master is a master from West Kunlun, so I can't explain his name clearly."
Zhang Zixing was depressed for a while. This girl had been making trouble for a long time, but she still didn't explain who it was. However, among the gods, there were only a few experts in West Kunlun. He tried to ask: "Is the revered master Du E Zhenren or Lu Ya Zhenren?"
When Deng Chanyu heard him mention Lu Ya's name, her expression suddenly changed.
