Marry a wife to be the emperor

The Taishanghuang and the emperor sat on the high platform. To see the Taishanghuang's face clearly, he had to raise his head and look carefully. Standing behind him, the short one even had to stand on tiptoe.After seeing the true face of the Supreme Emperor, the courtiers also put their necks back to their original positions like Pei Qinghong, and put on the appearance of a well-behaved courtier who is gentle, courteous and thrifty.

The appearance under the mask shocked most of the courtiers, including Pei Qinghong. It was rumored among the people that the Supreme Emperor's appearance was ugly, and at best, his appearance was mediocre.None of the courtiers present remembered the true face of the Supreme Emperor, so they believed the rumors [-]%.After being prepared to see the ugly appearance of Tianji, it's no wonder they were shocked to see such a face.

When the veterans saw Tai Shulan's appearance, they believed that his facial features followed those of the former Emperor Jianlong. Every part was very delicate, as if carved out of high-quality jade, but together it would only make people feel rough. Not enough handsome but more than enough, plus full of royal aura, he is a real handsome man, and will not make the same sex feel charming or profane, and it is absolutely impossible to get hooked on the word ugly and mediocre...

Pei Qinghong had never met Emperor Jianlong before, but he learned a thing or two from the whispered discussions of the courtiers. Tai Shulan's eyes were narrow and long, and they were phoenix eyes similar to those of the deceased Emperor Jianlong and Emperor Yuanrui, except that the ends of Emperor Jianlong's eyes were slightly wider. Looking up, there is a pair of affectionate peach blossom eyes, Emperor Yuan Rui is more slender, and his brows are more gentle.

The Taishanghuang is a handsome man, but there is still a flaw in his beauty, probably because he has been wearing a mask for a long time, the skin on his face is whiter than those noble sons who have applied five stone powder on their faces, and he does not look very healthy. Pei Qinghong's eyesight was excellent, so of course he didn't miss the unnaturalness at the brow of the other's right eye.The skin there is reddish and slightly raised, a scar that hasn't healed completely.

Pei Qinghong's thoughts turned to a folk rumor that when Emperor Jianlong was still in power, there was a fire in the palace, and the maid who gave birth to the second prince died here, and the second prince Tai Shulan also died because of the fire. Burned by the fire, his appearance was extremely ugly, so Emperor Jianlong bestowed him with a mask carved from flawless jade, and he has since become a masked monster in the mouths of the common people.

The first half of the rumor is of course nonsense, because when the fire broke out, the second prince’s biological mother did not appear in the palace at all, so how could he die here because of the fire, but now it seems that the second half of the rumor is true. Part of it should be the truth. The Supreme Emperor has been wearing a mask, most likely to cover the scars on his face. Now that the scars have almost disappeared, he took off the mask used to cover up.

"All the ministers raise their heads." The Supreme Emperor said, and a group of courtiers, including the father and son of the Pei family, looked up at the high platform.

The hoarse and deep male voice asked calmly: "What do you think of Gu's appearance?"

There was silence in the Golden Luan Hall for a while, and then it exploded. This person said: "Your Majesty looks like a heavenly man, even Mingyue is alive, but he is not half as handsome as His Majesty." Mingyue is a well-known beautiful man in Dalan's history.

The one said: "Your Majesty's appearance is naturally one in tens of thousands. Your majesty, no man in this world can match you." They are all good-looking, and they are rare beautiful men in the world. Those who are better-looking than him are not as masculine as him, and those who are more rough than him are not as elegant as him...

Even the little emperor sitting next to the Supreme Emperor also praised the Supreme Emperor for his good looks. Although he usually slandered the other party as an ugly monster with a bad face, the other party took off the mask and praised that face. Not against my will.

Anyway, everyone likes to listen to good words, and no one would use this to offend the Supreme Emperor. After all the courtiers praised the Supreme Emperor severely, Pei Qinghong was named again.

"What do you think of Pei Aiqing?" As soon as the Supreme Emperor finished speaking, the minister's first reaction was to look at the left minister Pei Yan who was standing in the front, and then followed Pei Yan's gaze to Pei Qinghong.

Pei Qinghong, who was stared at by the courtiers, was stunned, and then he bowed generously to the man on the high platform, and said: "Xiao Xiao Su Su, hearty and clear." In the memory of his last life, people described a Wei The handsome man in the Jin Dynasty praised him for his chic and serene demeanor, and his bold and relaxed temperament.

His attitude is very good, and his demeanor is extremely sincere. It feels much better to be praised by someone who is a handsome man than to be praised by a bad old man. Tai Shulan looked at him for a long time with his slightly sinister eyes, and his brows stretched a bit.

Seeing that the Taishanghuang's expression was better than before, many officials echoed again and again, praising the Taishanghuang's temperament like nothing in the sky.After the civil and military officials had said all the good things and praised the latter for his domineering aura, the Supreme Emperor who was sitting in the upper position coughed twice: "Okay, I didn't take off the mask today to listen You boasted, I just asked you to look up, but you can remember Gu's appearance clearly?"

"Remember clearly!" The ministers, old and young, answered in unison, their voices were a bit more orderly than those of the schoolchildren answering their masters in private schools.

"It's good to remember clearly. I hope that when I see the ministers in other places in the future, nothing will happen to make me unhappy." Knowing that the Supreme Emperor wore a white jade mask on his face, if he walked outside wearing that jade mask, he would become a bright target.

He warned in advance that it would be much more convenient to walk in the capital with this face in the future.A group of courtiers said one after another: "The humble minister will restrain the clan's children, and will never let His Majesty worry."

With the assurance of civil and military officials, the Supreme Emperor slapped the white jade mask on the handle of the dragon chair again, and the mask that had accompanied him for nearly ten years turned into white powder in an instant and fell to the ground profusely.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty!" Eunuch Chang Xiu's high-pitched voice broke the silence in the Golden Luan Hall, and all civil and military officials hurriedly echoed, praising the Supreme Emperor's martial arts prowess.

When the morning court was over, the officials who had been friends with each other began to discuss in twos and threes the appearance of the Supreme Emperor and the purpose of his next words.Yuan Yu, the waiter of Yuan, also followed Pei Qinghong and was deeply moved by the appearance of the Supreme Emperor: "In the past, it was rumored that the Supreme Emperor was ugly like a Yasha, but now it seems that His Majesty is a very handsome man. Believe the rumors in the market! "

After saying this, he recalled the aura of the Supreme Emperor smashing the white jade mask into powder: "Of course, it's not completely unbelievable. Your Majesty's martial arts are really excellent. I don't know how much effort was used at that time. It's a pity that it's priceless." The jade has just turned into powder."

Pei Qinghong just listened to his emotion and didn't say much.He didn't feel sorry for Yu, but he was very interested in the story behind the mask that the Supreme Emperor shattered. It was just a royal secret, and as a courtier, he was not easy to inquire about.

The two walked all the way to the office of the Ministry of Industry. When they reached the gate, Eunuch Xue Cheng, who was serving in front of the little emperor, stopped Pei Qinghong: "Your Majesty ordered the miscellaneous family to wait for Mr. Pei here. Your Majesty, he is in Huaiyang." Palace, please also invite Mrs. Pei to go this way with the miscellaneous family."

"Master Shang Shu, hurry up and let the emperor wait for a long time." Yuan Yu also helped Eunuch Xue urge a few words, fearing that Pei Qinghong would be blamed by the little emperor for being late.He has always looked down on these eunuchs, seeing that the other party is a celebrity in front of the emperor, he still greeted Eunuch Xue.

Pei Qinghong explained a few words to Yuan Yu about the main matters of the Ministry of Industry today, and then followed Eunuch Xue to the inside. Along the way, the young Eunuch Xue took the initiative to talk to Pei Qinghong, and asked some things about Pei Qingyi and Pei Qinglin.

"The Pei family is full of dragons and phoenixes. The miscellaneous family heard that besides Pei Hanlin, Mrs. Pei also has a younger brother from the same mother. The queen mother wanted to marry the Pei family, so she asked the miscellaneous family to inquire about the character of the third son. Brother, the miscellaneous family thought it would be perfect to ask Taifu Pei about you. The queen mother thinks that Princess Lingyu and the third son of your family are of the same age, and they are a match made in heaven, so I don't know what Taifu Pei will do?"

"My brother is naughty and young, how can he be able to climb high? Besides, as an elder brother, I don't want to interfere with my younger brother's marriage." After saying this, Pei Qinghong shut up, and neither did Eunuch Xue. Thinking of trying to force Pei Qinghong's mouth open again, because the price would be too high.When he brought him here, he withdrew from the inner hall where Pei Qinghong taught the little emperor, and waited outside the hall with his eyes on his nose, his nose, his nose, and his heart.

"Hello Mrs. Pei!" The little emperor greeted him politely with a touch of softness in his juvenile voice.

Da Lan respected his master and said that as the emperor's teacher, the other party wanted to salute him in this situation. Pei Qinghong Shi Shiran accepted the salute, and sat down in front of the emperor on his knees.

Today, Pei Qinghong is still talking about the history of architecture and the way of water control. These are the things he is best at as the minister of the Ministry of Industry, and it is understandable to teach the emperor this.

After studying for half an hour, the little emperor suddenly interrupted Pei Qinghong's lecture: "Teacher, you will stand on my side." Today, he continued the title of Taifu's lecture, and all the palace servants who served After being driven out of the inner hall, even his most trusted Xue Cheng could only stay outside, just to ask this question.The queen mother said that the Pei family could be trusted, so he would have the bet today that Pei Qinghong would not turn around and tell the emperor.

The little emperor has changed from a five-year-old Xueyu dumpling to an 11-year-old boy. Although he is not tall among his peers, his personality and thoughts have changed a lot. As he grows up, he thinks a lot and his heart grows bigger. .He didn't mention the word Taishanghuang, but just extended an olive branch to the Pei family, asking for a promise from Pei Qinghong.

Both of them are smart people, so there is no need to say any polite words. Faced with the young emperor's eyes full of expectations, Pei Qinghong just relaxed a little: "Your Majesty is confused, this world belongs to the uncle's family, and this humble minister is also Da Lan. Naturally, my ministers stand on the standpoint of benefiting the people of the world, so there is no question of which side to stand on. If His Majesty is willing to learn what Pei teaches, I will teach more in the future."

Although there is no clear statement, this is already a surprise for the little emperor. Even Zhang Taifu dare not teach him something that the emperor does not want him to learn. As an emperor, he can't even learn the true emperor's way. Seeing that, Tai Shu Yue's eyes lit up: "Then what class will I have next?"

"The architectural history of Suiyang Palace in Dalan." Before the little emperor changed his face, Pei Qinghong continued: "With copper as a mirror, you can straighten your clothes, and with history as a mirror, you can know the rise and fall. Your Majesty will keep it in mind."

Uncle Tai immediately corrected his attitude, and he no longer fell asleep when he heard Pei Qinghong speak.

As soon as this time was extended, it was extended by two or three hours. When he came out of the palace, it was already night, so Pei Qinghong gave up his plan to return to the Ministry of Industry, and went directly to Pei's carriage to return to Pei's house.When he entered his bedroom, he realized that there were several plates of tasty and fragrant meals on the table. On his seat was a bowl of white rice and a pair of wooden chopsticks. Lan Min sat across from his seat and looked down at a book. Also did not move.

Noticing his return, the other party put down the book in his hand, and moved the stool halfway to stand up. After Pei Qinghong sat down, he hooked the stool back and sat down again.

Pei Qinghong was hungry, so he picked up the food with his chopsticks. The food was hot, and it was obvious that it had just been brought out from the kitchen, so he asked, "Why did Zijue not eat until now?"

"I'm not very hungry, and my mother said that it's better for the husband and wife to eat together." Not long after returning home today, Mrs. Ye pulled him over and said a lot about how wives should treat their husbands. Not long after being released.Most of it was her own experience. Although many of what the other party said were useless to him, some of them were indeed good suggestions.

"Mother also said that she used to take care of your life, but since I married into the Pei family, I have to learn to take care of the inner courtyard, so I will be responsible for Muzhi's basic necessities of life in the future." Ye Shi It also tested Lan Min for a period of time before she dared to let go. Of course, Lan Min also ordered the servants to take care of them. As long as the servants serving in the yard are all from Pei's house, she doesn't have to worry too much about Lan Min's doing it. Something that is not good for the second son.

Lan Min has a gentle personality, but because she has been staying in her small courtyard, she must not be as careful as a woman.Since he got married, he has been trying his best to fulfill his responsibilities as a husband. Naturally, he also hopes that Lan Min can become the wife he wants. Small frictions are not a thing. Support the rest of my life after walking.

"Mother is interested, Zijue will have to work hard from now on." Mrs. Ye's words are not too much, and since the other party married into the Pei family, the Pei family has always taken into account the other party's feelings from a good family son to a man's wife. Now is also about the time to speak clearly and let the other person see and accept this reality.

Pei Qinghong nodded. Tired and hungry, he didn't say anything more, just looked at the meal in front of him and concentrated on eating.

After dinner, Pei Qinghong washed off his exhaustion in the hot spring pool at the back of the yard. When he came out, Lan Min had already finished his bath and went to a green shirt. She was sitting on the edge of the bed in white obscene clothes and looked at him. A few days ago, I entrusted someone to carry the folk story book "Washing Injustice Record".

Pei Qinghong's hair was also wet in the hot spring pool just now, so he took a few dry towels to dry his hair.Before Lan Min married in, his hair was served by servants. He never knew how to take care of his long hair. After wiping it for a long time, it was still dripping. Thinking of going to bed early, he prepared to call Nineteen in. Rub your hair.

Lan Min stretched out his hand and grabbed him: "Let me try this. Mu Zhi curls up my hair every day. I can still do this kind of thing."

Pei Qinghong glanced at the other party and did not refuse. He lay on Lan Min's lap and enjoyed the other party's service. From his angle, he could clearly see Lan Min's entire face.

Lan Min is a typical white-faced scholar. His skin color is quite a bit paler than that of a person who often runs around. His eyebrows are picturesque, with phoenix eyes and sharp lips. The other party was drying his hair bit by bit with a towel: "By the way, His Majesty took off his mask today. When he looked up at His Majesty, he always felt like he had seen some places before."

"Maybe it's similar to the first emperor." This is the first time Lan Min has done this kind of thing. Originally, he was going to use his internal energy to dry the opponent's hair, but he was afraid that Pei Qinghong would notice, so he thought about the scene of the servant doing this in the past. Hold the tail of the hair, and dry it slowly with a towel along the root to the tip of the hair.

Pei Qinghong shook his head very slightly. The appearance of the late emperor was quite different from that of the Supreme Emperor: "I just remembered now that Zijue's appearance is five points similar to your Majesty's."
