Rebirth of the prosperous male concubine

Feng Qin didn't know what was going on in the palace, and he didn't let anyone inquire.Probably nothing happened, otherwise his brother would have sent someone to look for him.

Early in the morning, Youxing personally brought the sweet-scented osmanthus cake ordered by Feng Qin to Jiang Yi.This was made in the kitchen this morning, and it tastes sweet. Feng Qin reckoned that Jiang Yi might like it, and heard from the kitchen staff that Jiang Yi only wanted rice porridge and a side dish this morning, so he ordered Youxing to deliver it to Jiang Yitian sweet mouth.

"Excuse me, Mr. You." Jiang Yi accepted the sweet-scented osmanthus cake and said to You Xing.

"Young Master Jiang has beaten this slave." You Xing said with a smile, "If you don't have any other orders, this slave will go back first."

Although Jiang Yi doesn't have a smiling face, he is not difficult to serve, so You Xing doesn't feel too much pressure on him.

"Okay. Xia Feng, see off Eunuch You."

"Please, Eunuch You."

"Don't dare, don't dare."

Although called "father-in-law", Youxing is not a real eunuch in the traditional sense.And there was no real eunuch in Dasheng Dynasty.

In order to stabilize the population, from the founding of the country, the eunuchs who re-entered the palace took medicine to suppress the function there.This medicine is taken once every two years, and it can be recovered after stopping the medicine.

Generally, eunuchs who are not close to the master can leave the palace and start a family at thirty.For the eunuchs, this is simply a royal reward. They don't have to leave the palace to make people roll their eyes, and they can have children to die. Therefore, they are very grateful to the master and the royal family, and are very loyal.

Like other eunuchs beside the prince who went out to build a mansion, You Xing has already stopped taking the medicine.But "Eunuch" is still called, which is also a symbol of status.

When Xia Feng came back, he brought the plate of sweet-scented osmanthus cake to Jiang Yi's hand, "Master, look at how delicate this cake is. You should try it."

Jiang Yi shook his head, "I don't want to eat."

"Oh." Xia Feng didn't care either. His young master was weak and had a poor appetite. Sometimes he ate a lot of food, and sometimes he didn't want to touch it at all.

Jiang Yi thought for a while and said, "Put it on a small table, maybe I'll have an appetite later."

"Okay." Xia Feng responded, and took the sweet-scented osmanthus cake.

Jiang Yi stirred the porridge, but he had no intention of eating it.

He won't eat that plate of sweet-scented osmanthus cake, who knows if there will be anything in it?But he couldn't just throw it away or reward the servants, that would be too embarrassing for Feng Qin, and it wouldn't be worth it if he got angry.So I can only put it away first, and when it is not fresh at night, I can find a reason to throw it away.

In the afternoon, Feng Qin called Jiang Yi and went to Wangyou Pavilion.

There is no wind today, and the sun is not bad. It is quite pleasant to boil a pot of water in the pavilion, make a pot of hot tea, and chat for a while.

"Do you feel better these days?" Feng Qin asked.

In fact, this is not a matter of a day or two, but Jiang Yi felt that there was no need to spoil Feng Qin's interest, so he said, "It's good, it's not so cold anymore."

Feng Qin nodded in satisfaction, "From then on, I will bring you here every year."

Per year?Jiang Yi smiled wryly in his heart. This promise may be fulfilled next year or the year after, but after that... it can only be said to be empty talk.

"What?" Seeing Jiang Yi in a daze, Feng Qin asked.

Jiang Yi came back to his senses, shook his head slightly, "It's nothing."

Feng Qin didn't think too much, picked up the hot tea and blew it while drinking it. After a while, he opened his mouth and said, "Jiang Yi, do you want to test for fame?"

A male concubine can also become an official in the court, and there is no conflict, so he wants to know Jiang Yi's thoughts even more.

Jiang Yi said without hesitation: "I don't want to, I'm not interested in these."

"Huh?" This was different from what Feng Qin expected.He remembered that Jiang Yi was a very talented and ambitious person, but he was imprisoned in the mansion and buried.

"My lord, you should understand that being an official in the imperial court is full of calculations by all parties, and how hard it is to survive." Jiang Yi is not afraid to tell Feng Qin about this, because his entry into the palace is also a balance of power and strength. Calculated, "My father and elder brother work hard and serve the country, but so what? They are still not trusted."

"The holy words say that being an official is only for the sake of the people, and only to keep one side safe." Feng Qin liked Jiang Yi's argument very much. Some things, only after they have experienced it themselves, can they know that it is not as good as it is in the eyes of onlookers.

"Now the emperor recruits talents and is willing to plead for the people. I hope that there are many officials who can protect the country and the rivers and mountains. I am not missing." Jiang Yi does not like the current emperor. It is disrespectful to say this, and he can only understand it in his heart just fine.

"What do you think of the world today?" Feng Qin asked.

"The people live and work in peace and contentment, and the frontier soldiers fight against the enemy with one heart, so it's a good thing."

Feng Qin chuckled, "You said this for the emperor, not for me."

Jiang Yi remained silent.

Feng Qin drank all the tea in his cup, "To live and work in peace and contentment today is just a matter of good weather, good harvests, and no excessive taxes. Frontiers have been fighting for many years, but they mostly focus on defense and rarely take the initiative to attack, because once they are pursued deeply, Food and grass can’t keep up at all. Now whenever a county is hit by a disaster, do you think it’s still safe?”

"You..." Jiang Yi didn't expect Feng Qin to think so clearly, and he had never discussed this with Feng Qin before, and the good time was just romantic.

"Above the court, the forces are intertwined. The emperor wants to use this to balance the court, but in fact, his imperial power has been eaten back by the balance. And the emperor is suspicious and paranoid. In order to preserve his glory, officials will only pick good things. To put it bluntly, the emperor has heard a lot, and really thinks that he is wise and wise."

Jiang Yi looked left and right, frowned and said, "My lord, don't talk nonsense, be careful that the walls have ears."

Seeing that Jiang Yi still cared about him, Feng Qin was very happy. "It's okay, there are only mountains and rivers around here, no one else."

With his hearing ability, if there is someone else, he will definitely be able to spot it immediately.

"Whether there are people or not, the prince should be cautious in his words and deeds."

"Didn't I tell you that?"

Feng Qin's words made Jiang Yi feel a little strange, like a light and gentle force had poked his heart, it didn't hurt, just numb.

"I'm not entirely believable." Jiang Yi drank tea with downcast eyes.

Feng Qin chuckled, "Then I just want to tell you, okay?"

Jiang Yi's cautious look made him feel a little cute.

Jiang Yi didn't say any more, he was advising himself that maybe Feng Qin's good words were just to win his trust.

There is no time in the mountains, until Feng Ye sent someone to deliver a letter to Feng Qin, telling him to go back to Beijing to make arrangements, Feng Qin hurriedly got his things packed and returned to Beijing.

In a forest outside the city, the carriage of Prince Xiang's Mansion was already waiting there.

After the carriage in Prince Lu's Mansion stopped, Feng Qin jumped out of the carriage to make sure it was safe, then lifted the curtain, and said to Jiang Yi in the carriage, "Come down."

Jiang Yi was puzzled, but Feng Qin's hand was stretched out there, and he couldn't move, so he had to help his hand to get out of the car.

Xia Feng also got off the carriage behind and walked over.

Jiang Yi is not familiar with this place, but he has already seen the city gate from a distance, which means that the vicinity is relatively safe.

Feng Qin lifted the curtain of the carriage of King Xiang's Mansion, and said to Jiang Yi: "This is the carriage from my elder brother's mansion, and the driver is from Zhuangzi. People in Beijing are unfamiliar, so don't worry about being noticed."

"This is..." Jiang Yi still didn't understand.

Feng Qin smiled and said: "I have some matters in my house, you go back to Jiang's house for a few days first, and I will pick you up after I have dealt with it."

Let yourself go home?

Jiang Yi was shocked, but what happened to come back in such a hurry, and to send himself home again?

Jiang Yi thought for a while, but still didn't ask the question - he didn't care about his business at all, so why bother to ask?

After Jiang Yi and Xia Feng got into the carriage, Feng Qin gave some instructions to the coachman, and the carriage drove to Beijing.

Feng Qin stayed where he was for a while before getting into the car and returning home.

This has to start three days ago.

Fengqin's grandfather Dingdu Hou wrote a letter, intending to hand over military power.

This is a major event, the emperor naturally had to summon him, on the one hand he pretended to persuade him to serve the court for a few more years, on the other hand he actually hoped that he could appease the army and hand over the military power as soon as possible.

Ding Duhou mentioned Fengqin as if he was chatting about family affairs, and said that he was the same as the emperor, and the most worrying thing was Fengqin.I hope that in my lifetime, I can see Feng Qin marry a good princess, so that he can rest assured to take care of his life.

The emperor smiled and asked, "Does Ding Duhou have a good candidate?"

Ding Duhou said in a calm manner: "This matter, he has to let his mother and the emperor worry about it. But with King Lv's temperament, it is absolutely not easy to meet a family of civil servants. I am afraid that his straightforward temper will make it difficult for the princess to be caught in the middle." , It also affects the relationship between husband and wife. When the generals are better, after the ministers get old, no one can point out King Lv in the army. If King Lv goes out for the country in the future, if there is a familiar and reliable soldier to help analyze and assist, can Better."

How could the emperor not understand what Ding Duhou meant?

But having said that, once Ding Duhou's military power was handed over, only Xu Lin was left in the Xu family.Xu Lin was young, and he didn't have any great achievements or military exploits, so he wasn't anything to be afraid of.In other words, the Xu family is just an ordinary Hou Bo's family.In this case, it would be okay to tie up the marriage of General Nan's Mansion.They will not form greater support for each other in terms of military power, and this marriage can also use feudalism to check and balance General Nanping, which is very appropriate no matter how you think about it.

The queen came over this morning and mentioned some good-looking families, including Jiang Yi from General Pingnan's residence. After hearing this, he didn't give any confirmation, only said that he would consider it.

The queen's mother's family is an idle marquis, so it would be good to marry Jiang Yi.But what can it bring him?With the status of Marquis of Ankang, General Pingnan is not afraid at all, so he can't play the role of check and balance.

Furthermore, if the eldest prince marries a male concubine, the possibility of inheriting the throne will be halved, and at that time, it will not be able to restrict other princes.

Thinking about it this way, it would be more appropriate for Feng Qin to marry Jiang Yi, and he can take back part of the military power, killing two birds with one stone.

Thinking of this, the emperor said in a good mood: "A while ago, Concubine Zhen proposed to me that she wanted Qin'er to marry Jiang Yi, the second son of General Pingnan's mansion. I don't know what Marquis Dingdu thinks?"

Duhou Ding was not surprised when the emperor asked him this way, "Jiang Yichen doesn't know much about him, but he only knows that this son has a very good reputation. It would be a blessing if King Lu could marry him."

"Since Ding Duhou said so, let's make it so." The emperor laughed.

"Everything is up to the emperor." Ding Duhou got up and saluted.

Ding Duhou is not afraid of surrendering military power.His two grandsons have been close to him since childhood, despite Feng Qin's temper, he is really easy to speak.He also sincerely treats his two grandchildren as his own grandchildren.

As long as the Jiang family is related, the hope of his two grandsons inheriting the throne will be even greater.

As long as one of them proclaims himself emperor, what does he need this military power for?

When Jiang Yi returned to General Pingnan's Mansion, Jiang Hengde and Jiang Du were both surprised, but also very happy, and quickly called him into the study to inquire about the situation.

Anything bad lately?It seems not.

Feng Qin was kind to him, and the whole of Prince Lu's mansion did not dare to neglect him.

Hearing what Jiang Yi said, Jiang Hengde and Jiang Du were relieved a lot.At the same time, I was also a little puzzled by Feng Qin's behavior. He actually sent the hostages home for a short stay, and no one was sent to watch. How could it be that Jiang Yi went to Lv Wang's residence for a few days, and now he is going home What?

Before they could think about it, someone came from the front, "Master, someone is coming from the palace, Second Young Master, please accept the order!"

An imperial decree for Jiang Yi?

The three of them were very surprised, but they didn't dare to delay, and hurried to receive the order.

It was the emperor's personal eunuch, Eunuch Huang, who came to declare the decree.

Seeing the three of them coming out, Eunuch Huang happily bowed to them first, and then said: "Jiang Yi accepts the order!"

Jiang Yi walked to his father, and everyone in the hall knelt down to listen to the order.

"By God's fortune, the emperor's edict said: Jiang Yi, the second son of the Jiang family, was born in a famous family and has a reputation far and wide. Bestow marriage law king Fengqin, the wedding date is set on the sixth day of June. Qin here!"

Jiang Yi's eyes darkened - what's going on?Why did you suddenly get married? !
