Only then did he send Geng Xiao off with a lot of instructions. Before Empress Su could sit down on the couch, she heard outsiders report that the emperor was coming.

Empress Su hesitated for a moment, and simply leaned her head back, sat comfortably, did not get up to meet the emperor, and just waited in the inner room.

The emperor strode into the inner room, bringing in a gust of cold wind. Empress Su looked at his expression and said angrily, "Is it cold? Lin Lang warms himself up by the fire before sitting down."

Hearing these words, the emperor really stepped to the brazier to warm up the fire, and then said with a smile: "I don't think Mr. Wen is distressed that I am cold, but he is afraid that I will freeze you."

Empress Su pursed her lips and smiled, put down the snack in her hand, and stretched out her hand to the emperor, "Come on, let me cover Lin Lang?"

The emperor nodded her with his hands, and said with a smile: "You."

Empress Su withdrew her hand and smiled brightly at the emperor.

She was born to be beautiful, and she is rare in the world. With such a smile, the emperor has been married to her for more than ten years, so he can't help but feel moved.

Finally, after warming up by the fire and dispelling the cold air from his body, the emperor walked to the couch and sat down in two steps, holding Queen Su in his arms. Queen Su gently pushed him and said: "There are so many places over there. What are you doing!"

The emperor just smiled, opened his mouth and swallowed half of the snack in Empress Su's hand, then beckoned someone to fetch water to wash her hands, and said with a smile: "Don't eat, I will eat it for you, be careful that if you eat too much, you won't be able to eat at noon. "

Empress Su wiped her hands, and said angrily, "I asked Geng Xiao what he meant in the morning, but I was exhausted, and now I don't even eat snacks, it's really useful, I don't need to pay salary, I don't feel bad."

The emperor hurriedly took the hot towel from Empress Su, wiped it carefully for her, and said with a smile: "What do you say? Those ministers are all ministers, Wen Jun is a wife, and husband and wife are one body. What is mine is yours. Whatever you want, I don’t need to give it to you, Wenjun will take it for himself.”

"Did Geng Xiao see Jia Baoyu in the morning? Did Geng Xiao take a fancy to him?"

Empress Su glanced at the emperor, nodded with a smile, then shook her head and said, "I really don't know where Lin Lang came up with the idea to match the two of him together, I never thought that Geng Xiao would find such a young consort... ..."

Isn't it young? Jia Baoyu is only 15 years old this year, but Princess Geng Xiao is already 22, seven years older than Jia Baoyu.

If it is said that the princess is married twice and the son-in-law has not been married before, this age gap is reasonable. It is not uncommon for the princess to be older than the son-in-law by ten or twenty years.

When families with daughters find husbands for their daughters, they generally hope that their son-in-law will be one or two years older than their daughters.

Women are sensible earlier than men, and then find someone who is younger than a daughter. If the daughter is sensible, the son-in-law is still like a child. Is it possible to let the daughter coax the child?This is not looking for a son-in-law, but raising a son.

The Tian family is said to be the most noble in the world. When the palace chooses a son-in-law for the princess and princess, they also hope that the son-in-law can let the princess go. Naturally, they choose someone who is older than the princess.

This is the case with Princess Geng Yuchang and Bai Concubine. Bai Concubine is thirty-three this year and is two years older than the princess.

But Princess Geng Xiao is not quite the same as her sister, nor is she different from other princesses and princesses.

Princess Geng Xiao was frightened ten years ago, and she has been recuperating for more than ten years since then, but she never said a word.The imperial physician diagnosed that she was in good health, that was because she didn't want to speak again in her heart.

This is not a secret, and most people in Beijing know about it.When people get married, whether it's a man or a woman, they can't speak, and they don't know if they can speak again in this life, and they have to think twice about whoever it is.

Two things... Princess Geng Xiao has an elder brother whom everyone avoids, a convict commoner, the former loyal prince, Yan Yuanquan.

Thinking of the catastrophe in the royal family ten years ago that delayed Geng Xiao all these years, and thinking of the child killed by Yan Yuanquan, Empress Su couldn't help sighing: "If the son-in-law is younger, let him be younger."

"If it's true as Lin Lang said, this child from Jia's family has always been careful with his sisters, and he cherishes his daughter's family more than ordinary men. With him watching carefully, Geng Xiao is satisfied, and he will live a smooth life in the future. good."

"It's been a long time, let Geng Xiao forget about these messy things, and live in peace, it's considered that we have done our best as brothers and sisters-in-law."

Empress Su's sigh reached the emperor's heart.

The emperor hugged Empress Su tightly, and said in a low voice: "No matter how much we brothers fight for power and profit, Geng Xiao will always be innocent."

"Even if her mother and concubine Tao Guifei did those things, she would be able to bear the tragedy after seeing it with her own eyes. The fifth younger brother is under the law, and he has no minions to do evil for him. Let's choose a son-in-law for Geng Xiao, and we don't have to worry about other things. Just fit."

"Not only that," Empress Su said with a smile, "Concubine Xian is pregnant, whether it's a boy or a girl, it's also meritorious."

"Her status can't go any higher, and the title has no better meaning. There is no other way to reward her. Making her younger brother a princess consort is also our compliment to her. Let her take care of her baby with peace of mind. It's always too much." The heart is not good for the body..."

Empress Su's last words were just a slight sigh, but it moved the emperor's heart.

A bit of impatience appeared on his face, and he asked: "What did Xianfei say in the palace?"

Empress Su hurriedly explained with a smile: "That's not true, it's just that I heard from the imperial physician these days that Concubine Xian's pulse is a sign of stagnation in her heart, and her melancholy will not dissipate, so the child in her stomach will naturally be affected."

"I don't blame Concubine Xian. She hasn't gone out for several months, and she is so bored. Lin Lang hasn't visited her for another month or two. I heard that her mother and grandmother are unhappy again. The woman is pregnant. It’s easy to think too much, and she’s not easy to blame.”

After listening to Empress Su's words of distinguishing the virtuous concubine, the emperor expressed neither joy nor anger, and said indifferently: "As a high-ranking concubine, the parents in the family have such unbelievable morals, so naturally they should be ashamed."

Empress Su didn't say much when she saw this, she changed the subject and said jokingly: "Left and right, Geng Xiao is a princess, so I'm not afraid that the Jia Zheng Wang family will make trouble."

"Let's choose a place farther away from Jia's house to build a princess mansion for Geng Xiao, and send a few more capable female officials to ensure that Geng Xiao can live in peace."

The emperor smiled and said: "That's very true." He suddenly became interested, and immediately asked someone for a map of the capital, and then began to choose a place for Princess Geng Xiao to build the princess mansion.

Empress Su said helplessly: "Why is Lin Lang in such a hurry before he has written his horoscope? At least wait until the decree is made before picking, in case something happens..."

The emperor said: "It's simple, I'll make a decree right away, won't it be complete?"

"Xia Shouzhong! I want to issue a decree to marry Princess Gengxiao and Xianfei's younger brother Jia... What is the scientific name of this Jia Baoyu?"

Eunuch Xia hurriedly replied, "Jia Ji."

"Hurry up and prepare the pen and ink for the imperial decree, I will issue the decree soon."

Eunuch Xia left in a hurry, feeling astounded in her heart. Originally, the concubine Xian had divorced from the Rongguo Mansion, but if this imperial decree was issued, she might be divorced from her own parents.

It is a great blessing for him to be able to honor the princess, and it is also a great thing for the Jia family, but it is not necessarily the case for the concubine Xian and Jia's parents.

The princess is the emperor, and the son-in-law is the minister. No matter how good the relationship between husband and wife is, the distinction between monarch and minister cannot be forgotten.

Even the son-in-law is a courtier, let alone the relatives of the son-in-law.Mrs. Jia's wife, Mrs. Wang, is a bit left-handed. She may not be able to bear it and greet her daughter-in-law. Now Mrs. Wang has no orders, she is really a grassroots.

What's more, it's not that he is a slave thinking about his master in his heart. Princess Geng Xiao hasn't spoken for ten years, but she understands everything in her heart and has a strong temper. When the time comes, the Jia family will have to have a few good shows to watch.

Eunuch Xia thought about a lot quickly, and he flew back to Zichen Palace to ask for the pen and ink of the imperial decree without delay.

Empress Su rubbed ink and dipped a pen for the emperor to discuss a draft, stood behind him and watched him write the imperial edict, and sighed, "I knew Lin Lang was in such a hurry, I wouldn't let Sister Geng Xiao stay behind the screen in the morning. , at least let the two children say a few words face to face", but he smiled brightly in his heart.

Since September last year, Empress Su knew that Concubine Xian and Jia's family were worried about Jia Ji's marriage. It had been more than a year since she wanted to make up Geng Xiao and Jia Ji, and it was finally settled today. How could she not be happy?

And all she did was to mention to the emperor that morning that Princess Huiyun was sixteen years old, and Princess Huichun was fifteen years old, so she should find a son-in-law for engagement. She also picked out a few good alternatives, It's just that Geng Xiao hasn't decided yet, and the seniority and juniority are orderly. It's not good for a niece to get married before her aunt, and it's not easy to announce the decree.

That night, she persuaded the emperor to go and see Concubine Xian, mentioning that Concubine Xian was very worried about her younger brother's marriage recently, fearing that she would be overly worried and cause her fetal gas to hurt the emperor's heir.

The emperor went to see Concubine Xian once, but he was annoyed by the noise in the harem, gradually he became less sensitive towards Concubine Xian, and was already too lazy to go to Concubine Xian again.

After hearing her words, the emperor thought about it for a long time with a sullen face, and asked eunuch Xia to inquire about Jia Ji's news in the newspaper. He would rather go to Huayang Palace to ask the concubine Xian a word or two.

As for Jia Ji's situation, Empress Su had already inquired clearly, knowing that this year Jia Ji was selected as a scholar, she was sure, the emperor would be satisfied with Jia Ji being Geng Xiao's son-in-law.

Reluctant to speak, and a little older, the biological mother and the same mother and elder brother are like that. It is not good to give Princess Geng Xiao a marriage. It is not a marriage, but an enmity.

It's just that even if you don't choose the family status and lower the conditions, Princess Geng Xiao is a super-class princess after all, so you can't compromise in every aspect of the consort, otherwise, what's the face of the princess?Where is the royal face?

The family status should not be so low as to damage the royal family's face. The son-in-law must be handsome in appearance, good in character, kind-hearted and know how to advance and retreat.

Counting and calculating, there are only a few families in Manjing who can meet this requirement. If one of the children of these families is selected the most suitable one, it will be Jia Baoyu.

Now that Jia Baoyu is willing to study hard again, in his teens he was selected as a scholar, and Dayan couldn't help his son-in-law to participate in politics. In the future, even if he won't be able to reach the third grade of Geng Yu's son-in-law Boren, he will have a good future.

The emperor finished writing the imperial decree, read it once, and then opened his mouth to tell Eunuch Xia. Empress Su smiled first: "I asked the concubine Xian to let the child eat before leaving. If you can’t eat it, why not talk about it in the afternoon.”

"It happened that he came to thank him in the afternoon. I asked Geng Xiao to meet him again. Geng Xiao is not too old to be delayed. It is also a chance for the two children to see each other before they get married."

The emperor looked at the time clock, and it was a quarter to noon, and said with a smile: "Wen Jun said very well."

So the emperor and Empress Su also ordered to pass on the meal, and after lunch, they ordered the eunuch Xia to go to Huayang Palace to announce the decree.

Not to mention how Jia Baoyu was shaken and confused after receiving the imperial decree, and how terrified the concubine Xian was, but in the Jia family's second bedroom mansion, Jia Zheng Wang and Tanchun sent Jia Baoyu to the palace in the early morning, and waited until the sun set. I didn't see anyone back, and I couldn't find any news about the palace gate, so I was very worried.

In Rongguo Mansion, Mother Jia sent people out to inquire about the news from time to time, and she was so anxious that in the end even Wang Xifeng couldn't care less about being lazy. Sitting in the main hall, the screen waited for the letter.

Mrs. Wang and her aunt and nephew Wang Xifeng had long since lost their friendship. After meeting and exchanging greetings, Wang Xifeng just sat there lazily, not talking, and only looked at Aunt Zhao who was standing obediently behind Mrs. Wang, peacefully. Er'er met his eyes, which meant that Aunt Zhao seemed to understand a little bit.

Mrs. Wang didn't mean to condescend to her niece, but she was also anxious about Baoyu. She sat under Jia Mu and sent girls to ask each other outside the screen from time to time, without saying a word.

Although Tanchun was a little embarrassed, after taking care of the house for so many years, he had already practiced the kung fu of nourishing Qi. He sat next to Jiamu, serving tea and water to Jiamu.

Li Wan didn't say anything, he stood behind Jia's mother Wang, like a wooden figure, only occasionally looking at Wang Xifeng.

This is the case inside the house, and Jia Zheng and Jia Lian's uncle and nephew outside the house are not too different, each bowing their heads and pretending to drink water.

It gets dark early in winter, and it's already dark before you know it.

It was already time for dinner on weekdays, but none of the girls and women urged the masters to eat.

The masters were worried, and the maids held their breaths and dared not say much. Only Ping'er asked Tanchun, "Third Miss, our grandma can't help but be hungry now. I wonder if there is any porridge and soup at home that can pad our stomachs?" Grandma use some?"

Wang Xifeng smiled, and pretended to say to her: "Forget it, why bother, brother Bao's matter is the big one now."

Ping'er said worriedly: "The imperial doctor just said that grandma's body must be well taken care of. It's not a big deal to go hungry. What can I do if I hurt the child in my stomach? Not only grandma, but also the old lady should be cushioned." abdomen."

Tanchun looked at Mrs. Wang's complexion without any trace, and then hesitated to speak. Jiamu beside her sighed, "Third girl, go and get something for Feng girl to eat, and my old lady will just do it."

With Jiamu's words, Tanchun felt relieved, stood up neatly, and said with a smile: "The old lady came here so hard, how can I starve you? I'll go right away, the old lady and Sister-in-Law Feng will wait a little bit."

Mrs. Wang glanced at Tanchun's back, didn't say anything, just kept turning the beads in her hand, and Aunt Zhao was busy and courteous to refill her tea.

Seeing this, Wang Xifeng exchanged glances with Heping'er again, and the master and servant looked at each other and smiled.

Tanchun hurried out the door with the maids, and ordered the cook to bring more easy-to-eat and easy-to-digest dim sum porridge soup, not just for Jia Mu and Wang Xifeng, but for almost everyone.

The maids and women followed her into the corner gate of the main courtyard with their food boxes. Tanchun saw two young servants walking quickly in from the second gate. They were the ones who had followed Baoyu out.

The two of them beamed with joy, walked in quickly and knelt under the steps, and replied loudly: "Our second master has given up the princess! Eunuch Zhou in the palace sent the second master back, and he is getting off the car at the door, ordering the younger ones to come to announce the good news first !"

Who cares about food boxes at this time!

Tanchun took a few steps to the door, and when he was about to speak, he hurriedly put on a smile on his face, and Fang asked, "Which princess is Shang? Can you tell me?"

The little servant replied with a smile: "The slaves only know a general idea, and I heard that it is His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess!"

Tanchun tried his best not to frown. Isn't the eldest princess Gengxiao the only unmarried eldest princess in Xindao Palace?

How could it be this princess?Not to mention anything else, just say that the difference in age is too big!It is really the kindness that the eldest sister begged for, not to mention the princesses born to the emperor Xiao Xiang, but Princess Huiyun and Princess Huichun, who are also about the same age as the second brother...

Before Tanchun could figure it out, several exclamations suddenly came from the room, the loudest of which was Aunt Zhao's voice.

"Madam! My wife, what's wrong with you? Why are you so happy?"

The author has something to say:

coming~

Because there is a couplet in Rongxi Hall, the first half of the sentence is "Pearls on the seat show the sun and the moon", so some people speculate that Jia Baoyu's name is Jia Ji, and Jia Zhu is a couple.

In this article, Jia Baoyu is not worthy of Daiyu, so the name is based on this couplet =w=
