After the Rebirth of the Red Chamber

After the affairs of Qianxiang Kingdom came to an end, the sage ordered Qin Tianjian to calculate the auspicious day as soon as possible, and ordered the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Internal Affairs to prepare for the wedding of the grandson.

"All regulations are subject to the prince's gift."

Although the grandson and the prince are both crown princes, the grandson is the son of the prince after all.It stands to reason that the regulation of the great grandson's marriage should be lower than that of the prince and higher than that of the princes.

The reason why the sage issued such an order was firstly to show the great-grandson's status, and secondly because the regulations for the prince's wedding were all ready-made, which saved the time-consuming wrangling of the Ministry of Rites for "how much lower it should be".

After receiving the saint's will, the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Internal Affairs also breathed a sigh of relief.

——It's really such an errand, it's not easy to handle.

In fact, the Ministry of Rites is not willing to argue endlessly.But if they quickly come up with the regulations, the sage will definitely think that their etiquette department is not dedicated enough.

Back then, when the first prince got married, because the sage was already married when he was the prince, the first prince was the first prince to get married in this dynasty, and the Ministry of Rites was tortured by the sage.

Originally, the Ministry of Rituals revised it according to the specifications of the prince's big wedding in the previous dynasty, removed the outdated ones, and added some characteristics of the current dynasty.

This charter, no matter how you say it, is pretty good.

However, after the sage saw it, he sprayed blood on the head of the heavenly official of the Ministry of Rites at that time.

"Could it be that I don't have my own set of rules of etiquette when I marry the prince? Wouldn't it make the world laugh at me if I want to pick up on others' wisdom?"

Come on, Minister of the Ministry of Rites wiped the spittle on his face, picked up the folder that the sage threw at his feet, went back and continued to call on his colleagues in the Ministry of Rites to fight all night.

This time, the Ministry of Rites has picked up all the classics about the prince's wedding that can be found in the past dynasties and studied them.Finally, a set of extremely complicated and solemn etiquette regulations were formulated.

Most importantly, this set of regulations is not at all similar to the previous dynasty.

The Minister of Rites thought: Now, the sage should be satisfied, right?

But the reality is cruel, he was scolded by the saint again.

"The original kneeling three times turned into five kneeling times, and all the prayers that should have been three times were changed to nine bowings. It could have been done in one day, but it took three days. Are you trying to exhaust the prince to death?"

Minister of Rites: "..."

——It's too difficult for me!

"I'm guilty. It's because I didn't think carefully. I'll take it back and correct it."

The statutes of a big wedding were revised by the Ministry of Rites nine times, and the sage reluctantly said "perfect".The minister of the Ministry of Rites at that time was beaten by the sage and had to doubt his life, and he died within two years.

Today's Chen Shangshu, who was a young Yuanwailang back then, was also affected by the tail of the storm.Thinking of it until now, he still has lingering fears.

Because there are old rules to follow, the Ministry of Rites quickly formulated the regulations.

The concubine's dowry was purchased by the Ministry of Internal Affairs and delivered to Yuan's family in advance.The Yuan family can add a few more according to their own situation.This is not mandatory, and there are no hard and fast rules.

Originally, marrying a daughter-in-law is just icing on the cake for the royal family, no matter how good a woman is.Is the Royal missing something like that?

But the Yuan family is honorable, or the kind of honor whose children are more competitive and have never declined.

——Otherwise, the sage would not have chosen his family's daughter to be the grandson's concubine.

In the previous dynasty, in order to prevent the relatives from becoming bigger, the empresses and concubines were all selected from the common people.As a result, when the young master was in power, the queen mother had no confidence, and the emperor had to use eunuchs to control powerful officials, and most of them had a bad reputation.

Learning from the lessons of the previous dynasty, this dynasty feels that it is okay for the relatives to be stronger than others, at least the family backgrounds are quite good.

All in all, the Yuan family has a lot of background.And when the relatives of the Pond family saw that the direct branch was about to give birth to a mother of the country, how could they not take the opportunity to curry favor?

Therefore, Yuan's family collected twenty levies of dowry, which was only five levies less than that of the Crown Princess.

Listening to the discussion of the palace people, the crown princess felt that this daughter-in-law had given her face, and the concubines of those bastards in the future would definitely not be as good as the Yuan family.

Therefore, Yuan Wanniang won the favor of her mother-in-law before she even got through the door.

When the grandson paid his respects to his mother, he also secretly heaved a sigh of relief when he heard his mother's satisfaction with the Yuan family.

——He was afraid that there would be a quarrel between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and he would be caught in the middle.For this reason, he also privately asked Shaobao Shi Nai how to deal with this matter.

Shi Nai was speechless for a while, but after consulting the system, he gave him some advice.

"Generally, the reason why mothers don't like their daughter-in-law is because they think that the daughter-in-law has taken away their son. The grandson only needs to pay attention to this, and everything will be fine."

Thinking back to Shi Nai's words, Taisun frowned, and said nonchalantly, "Her dowry is the second most important thing. Anyway, our family is not short of that. As long as she enters the house, she can honor her mother well, and her son Don't ask her for anything else."

Sure enough, after hearing this, the Crown Princess was elated, and the wrinkles in the corners of her eyes were opened from the smile, "You husband and wife, you should get along in harmony."

Taisun looked reluctant, "All right, son listens to mother."

Seeing that the princess was happy, he changed the subject, "By the way, my son's younger brothers, didn't they come to cause trouble for mother?"

In this draft, the sage not only married his grandson, but also married other grandchildren of the right age.The grandson has two concubines who are two years younger than him, and they are also included in the marriage.

And the reason why he asked this question was because he was afraid that the mothers of the two concubines would ask for something in front of the princess for their marriage.

The Crown Princess' expression faded, and she did not hide the disgust on her face at all: "How much is due to them, there are old rules in the palace, who dares to bother me?"

"That's good." The grandson nodded, hesitated for a moment, and persuaded, "Even if the mother is for the son, she can reward them with whatever she wants. After all, they are the son's brothers, and they are closer than uncles and cousins. "

The grandson is considerate of his mother's thoughts, and has already considered and reconsidered his words.However, just such a sentence still ignited the princess's heart.

The princess said angrily: "Even if I throw away, smash, rub and feed the dog, I won't give it to those evil sons!"

The grandson was dumbfounded, and after a while, he finally said, "Mother, my father has been dead for many years, why do you..."

"Shut up!" The Crown Princess was so angry that her eyes were red, and she almost stared at the grandson fiercely, "Your father has only been away for a few years, have you forgotten the sufferings our mother and child have suffered?"

This time, Taisun really didn't know what to say.

To be honest, although the prince and the princess are not in harmony, they are definitely not a person who spoils concubines and destroys wives.To be precise, the prince's mind has never stayed on the wives and concubines in the backyard.All the internal affairs of the East Palace are also done according to the rules.

The "suffering" that the crown princess said was just that she was suppressed by the rules and couldn't work with concubines like ordinary mistresses.

Moreover, the reason why the grandson asked the princess to give the two younger brothers something as a face, did not mean to bow her head in the slightest.

For Taisun, this is just a way to win over and show favor.

In his and Shaobao's plan, his future world will definitely not be limited to the Central Plains and Kyushu.He needs the clan to guard those places far away from the political center of Daxia for him.

In terms of blood relationship alone, his younger brothers who were concubines were much closer than those uncles and cousins.

He originally thought that even if his mother couldn't understand his heart and revenge, she should first ask him the reason for such a request.In this way, he has a chance to explain.

At the time of introduction, mother and son were of the same heart, and the crown princess was a legitimate aunt, wouldn't it be easier to win over the concubine?

But he never imagined that the Crown Princess didn't even have such a heart and political sensitivity.

The grandson felt that he seemed to understand why the prince valued orthodox people so much, so he would not get close to his wife at all.

——Such a wife, instead of adding help, would only add to the chaos.Ordinary people can't bear it, let alone the prince who wants to get the wind and the rain since he was a child?

The grandson secretly sighed, and said: "Since the mother is unwilling, let's forget it. The child still has some official duties, so I will leave first."

"I knew that you wouldn't listen to me." The princess scolded, "The flesh that falls from my body has never been with me!"

Taisun frowned, and hurried out.The Crown Princess's yelling and cursing were endless, until he left the main hall of Duanben Palace, his ears were considered clean.

He sighed deeply, thinking that after getting married, he would move back to live in the East Palace and spend time with the princess, and he felt extremely tired.

Wang Zhu followed the grandson, seeing the sad face on the grandson's face, he hurriedly diverted his attention, "Your Highness, after a while, the Shaobao will come from the household department. What snacks should I prepare?"

Sure enough, when Shi Nai was mentioned, Taisun's thoughts quickly changed, and he said: "Let's just eat lotus root cake, Shaobao doesn't like things that are too sweet."

Wang Zhu said with a smile: "After the slave girl returns, I will ask the small kitchen to send it over."

"Yeah." Taisun nodded, remained silent for a moment, and suddenly said, "After you go back, you pick a few things and send them to Brother Zhao and Brother Xuan. Just say, it's a gift to congratulate them on their engagement."

Tu Zhao and Tu Xuan are the grandson's two concubines.Both of them are 13 years old this year, and they are still young, so they just got married first.

Since the princess is unwilling to come forward, the grandson can only do these things in person.

At this time, the grandson was looking forward to his wedding day coming soon.He really needs a good wife who is sensible and capable.

Wang Zhu had been with the prince for many years and helped the prince with many things.Now as soon as the grandson spoke, he knew how to choose the gift and how to give it, so that the two grandsons would feel grateful.

"Don't worry, Your Highness. After the servants returned, they took someone to pick them up and sent them to the two emperors and grandchildren."

Taisun finally showed a smile, "You have always been prudent in handling affairs, so there is nothing to worry about being alone."

"Your Highness has killed your slaves."

Taisun didn't say any more.

There are some things that he knows well.
