Film and TV starts with acquiring a memory palace
Chapter 693 Gu Tingye proposes marriage
When Zhao Zongquan saw the blood edict, he was also hesitant.
In fact, he was not just a passer-by from the royal family. He actually grew up in the palace when he was a child. At that time, the official family had no son, so they adopted him.
However, after the official's son was born, Zhao Zongquan was sent back. This was also the reason why Prince Yong sent people to assassinate him many times.
Now all this wealth has fallen on his head, but Zhao Zongquan is a little uncomfortable with it for a while.
After all, he knows his own business. If he really ascends the throne, there will be many people below who will not submit to him.
He didn't know why the government chose him, so Zhao Zongquan was a little afraid to act.
However, Gu Tingye and Zhao Zongquan's son did not have so many ideas and kept trying to persuade him.
Zhao Zongquan was really tempted. After all, it was the throne, who could really not be interested in it?
The reason why Gu Tingye persuaded him was quite simple. Now that Prince Yong was gone, Gu Tingyu could come back, which was a great thing.
Moreover, he has a good relationship with Zhao Zongquan. If he can make great achievements this time, it will also benefit the Ningyuan Marquis Mansion.
But if someone else ascends the throne, it would be hard to say.
Because of his ambition and the persuasion of two people, Zhao Zongquan finally agreed.
He came to the military camp with the official blood edict to mobilize troops.
Finally, with Gu Tingye's fighting spirit, the emperor and the queen were rescued. Prince Yan also committed suicide when things completely failed.
The emperor immediately appointed Zhao Zongquan as the crown prince.
However, the court of the Song Dynasty was still a little weird. After all, it was thought that Prince Yong's succession to the throne was the trend of the times, and everyone was ready to support the new king. However, it turned out that Prince Yong was not blessed enough and could not bear such great wealth.
Now Prince Yan has also been killed, and the two most promising people before are both dead, and now Zhao Zongquan has taken advantage of the situation.
This was totally unacceptable to other members of the royal family.
After all, there are many people in the royal family who are much closer in blood than Zhao Zongquan. Why did Zhao Zongquan come to the top in the end?
Fortunately, after going through this turmoil, the husbands could not bear it again.
The emperor and several officials worked together to suppress the disturbance, and things gradually calmed down.
The emperor's health was not good to begin with, and after this incident, his energy was completely exhausted. Zhao Zongquan also began to gradually get involved in political affairs in preparation for his future promotion.
However, these things have little to do with the Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion. Apart from the fact that Gu Tingye caught Zhao Zongquan's eye, the biggest benefit is that Prince Yong is gone, and the current Crown Prince Zhao Zongquan has nothing to do with him. Gu Tingyu is completely fine.
"Father, do you want to talk to my eldest brother about this and ask him to come back?"
"No, the court is still a bit chaotic right now. Let's wait until it stabilizes."
Of course, Gu Yankai also wanted Gu Tingyu to come back, but after thinking about it, he shook his head and refused.
Although the situation in the court has become more stable now thanks to the emperor and several ministers, there are still some changes.
The emperor's health is not good now. If he passes away at this time, there will still be trouble after Zhao Zongquan takes office, so there is no need to rush at this moment.
After hearing Gu Yankai's analysis, Gu Tingye thought about it and expressed his approval. Moreover, Gu Tingyu also sent a second letter during this period, telling him about the situation, so the two were not too worried.
Shao Xueyan was a little disappointed. After all, Gu Tingyu had been away from home for almost half a year, and she really missed him.
…
Gu Tingye no longer goes to the Sheng family for classes because he helped Zhao Zongquan get to the top.
So now he is very trusted, and the emperor did not reward him directly, but only let Gu Tingye serve as the commander of the guards in the prince's mansion, which makes him a close minister of the prince.
After Zhao Zongquan ascends the throne, he will definitely be highly valued.
"Tingye, I was planning to propose to you before, but so many things happened in the middle that it has been delayed until now."
"Now that things are fine and you have made a difference, if you don't change your mind, I will propose marriage to you."
Gu Tingye didn't expect Gu Yankai to suddenly bring up this matter, and his mind couldn't help but think of his acquaintance with Minglan during this period.
In addition, because of their sharing of life and death during the Bianjing Incident some time ago, Gu Tingye really fell in love with Minglan.
"Okay, father, Tingye wants to marry Sheng Minglan."
"Okay, then I'm relieved."
Gu Yankai was also quite satisfied. After all, Gu Tingye had really changed a lot since the two of them had talked, and now they were going to get married, which was really good.
As for whether the Sheng family would agree, Gu Yankai had never thought about it. Is it possible that they would not agree?
After Gu Yankai sent Gu Tingye back, he arranged for the housekeeper to prepare gifts for the marriage proposal.
The next day, after returning from court, Gu Yankai came to the Sheng family in Jiying Lane with gifts.
Sheng Hong was already waiting at the door. When he saw the carriage from Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion, he hurried over to greet it.
"Sheng Hong, meet the Ningyuan Marquis."
"Master Sheng, this is really too polite. Gu is here to visit you today for something."
After the two exchanged greetings, Sheng Hong led Gu Yankai to the main living room.
"My Lord, I wonder why you came here today?"
As Sheng Hong spoke, he glanced at the boxes that were carried in by the servants of Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion.
"Master Sheng, I came here today to propose marriage. This is a small gift. Please accept it."
"Ah, I wonder for whom the Marquis is proposing marriage, and which daughter of mine is it?"
Sheng Hong really didn't expect that Gu Yankai came to propose marriage. After all, he always thought that his family was not worthy of Ningyuan Hou, so he never dared to think about it.
Madam Wang was extremely excited. If Sheng Hong and Gu Yankai had not been here, she would have been extremely excited.
In her mind, this person was definitely here to propose marriage to Ruolan. After all, she was the legitimate daughter of the Sheng family, so who else could it be but Ruolan?
She looked at Sheng Hong with some reproach, and somewhat complained that there was no need for him to ask.
But Sheng Hong really didn't dare not ask. He also didn't dare to think that Rulan would be chosen, so it would be better to ask clearly.
"Haha, Lord Sheng, this time I'm proposing to marry Lord Sheng's daughter Sheng Minglan for my second son Gu Tingye."
When Sheng Hong heard that the proposal was for Gu Tingye, he was not surprised at all. He thought so in his heart. Gu Tingye was different now. He was highly valued by the prince and would definitely be an important official in the court in the future.
However, when he heard that it was Minglan who was proposing marriage, Sheng Hong was a little surprised. Although Sheng Minglan was nominally a legitimate daughter, everyone knew what was going on. He really didn't expect that the Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion would not care.
However, thinking of Minglan's appearance and her ability in making her the temporary housekeeper, Sheng Hong was not surprised.
"My Lord, no problem. I agree to this marriage. I don't know when..."
"Master Sheng, Tingye's idea is to wait until my son Tingyu comes back to get married. I wonder how Master Sheng feels about this."
"Okay, no problem, just do as you say."
