The sturdy life of crossing

Jian Niang stayed in the palace, waiting for the sons of the husband and wife to come back, but she was not waiting alone. In the early morning, many wives of courtiers entered the palace to accompany her. No one could understand this situation. The vulgar woman in the eyes of others is the empress dowager in the future, the most honorable woman in the world, and their new majesty is said to be extremely filial, so there is no harm in making the empress dowager happy anyway.

And now Jianniang's youngest son is not married yet, if Jianniang takes a fancy to their daughter, it will be easy to support the whole family in the future.

Jian Niang couldn't help but wanted to run to the gate of the palace to have a look around, and heard someone reply that the army had already entered the city, and they should be entering the palace soon. In front of them was a girl who was as beautiful as a flower and spoke coquettishly. No matter how you look at it, it is a very beautiful picture scroll, but Jian Niang, who is guarded by everyone on the main seat, has no mood to appreciate it, and such an occasion makes her feel restrained.

Mrs. Gu and Mrs. He accompanied Jian Niang on the left and right, and they looked at each other. Even they couldn't restrain their jealousy towards Jian Niang in their hearts, especially Mrs. Gu, who used to be with Jian Niang Sitting together and talking, I felt that Mother Jian was very lucky. As the daughter of a butcher, she was able to marry someone like Father Jian. This marriage seemed unsuitable at the time, but Father Jian He loves her very much, and has never been single-minded.

Looking back now, I think that kind of thinking before is simply a joke. Jian Niang is not only lucky, she is probably the reincarnation of a great benevolent person from the tenth generation who cultivated such a good fortune. My good brother, with my brother's ability, became the most honorable woman in the world from the butcher's daughter.

They are okay, because they are close to each other, and because of Jane's family, their family's status is also rising rapidly. It belongs to a relationship where one prospers and one loses, but it is quite different for others. I heard a lot of harsh words in the public, and Jian Niang's life experience was not covered up at all, so everyone in the capital, the dignitaries and the common people, knew that Jian Niang was the daughter of a pig butcher, and she once killed pigs with her own father Passing the sheep, but she will become the empress dowager in the future, and all the noble ladies in the capital will bow their knees to salute. This kind of scene is enough to gossip for a long time just by imagining it, and the common people are especially fond of talking about it.

Now they see that the noble ladies in the capital hide their contempt in their hearts, and try their best to please Jian Niang. Some of them are well-known in the circle of noble ladies in the capital, and they can be said to be good at dancing, but their skills are not in front of Jian Niang. If they can't use it well, their empress dowager will be very different from all the previous empress dowagers.

Your majesty is so special, it's no big deal if the empress dowager is a little different.

Mrs. Gu is also accompanied by an unmarried girl, but she is not young, she brought into the palace today to show Jian Niang, she is the daughter-in-law promised for her son, but a few years ago, because the girl had to keep filial piety, In addition to all the injustices, this marriage has been delayed until now. This girl is Feng Yiliang, the daughter of General Feng's family, Feng Yuan. Mrs. Gu is very satisfied with this marriage. Jian Niang also likes this girl after seeing her. According to Mrs. Gu, her future daughter-in-law and Jian Niang have more common language than other noble daughters.

"Ma'am, Your Majesty is almost at the gate of the palace." Mrs. Jiang hurried in from the outside and shouted the report excitedly. Everyone outside was shouting long live, so she changed her address without hesitation.

"Are you back? Come on, let's meet at the gate of the palace. Ah, by the way, sit down first, and I'll come back as soon as I go. I haven't seen Brother Yang for a long time. He must have lost weight after fighting hard outside." "Jian Niang stood up abruptly, lifted her skirt and ran out of the hall, halfway through the run, she remembered that there were so many guests, so she turned around and explained to the ladies who were stunned on the spot, then turned around and ran out excitedly .

Mrs. He smiled and said, "Shall we also go out to meet His Majesty?"

"Okay, let's go together, just to appreciate His Majesty's majesty." Mrs. Gu said with a smile, the two walked out of the palace hand in hand, Feng Yuan was already very curious and hurriedly followed, Mrs. Gu did not stop her.

The other women and noble ladies looked at each other, and some of them followed out. They could see that the queen mother was not very polite, while some were afraid of being bumped by a rough man who had just come down from the battlefield, so after thinking about it, it was better She stayed, but her heart was full of resentment and complaints. Thinking about it, she felt aggrieved. What kind of queen mother is now self-proclaimed, and she was born as the daughter of a pig butcher. Why do you still look down on them?

They have received the best education for noble girls since they were born, and they have learned the virtues of virtue and merit from piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but what the queen mother said was how to fight wars and how to make military uniforms to be strong and warm. It's a chicken talking to a duck, one can't understand and the other's elders want them to come into the palace to coax and hold such a vulgar woman, it's a good thing to say, but Jian Niang's expression is indescribable, which let them know, Jian Niang was not very happy to listen to these words, and she knew that what they said was wrong. On the contrary, the daughter of a military officer like Feng Yuan could talk to Jian Niang, sometimes coaxing Jian Niang to laugh out loud.

The army that followed Jian Leyang into Beijing was arranged by someone. Jian Leyang and his party were surrounded by people and returned to the palace. Seeing Jian Niang coming to the gate of the palace and waving outside, Jian Leyang lightly clamped the horse's belly, and flew out first as soon as he rode, and dismounted when he got close :"mother!"

"Brother Yang! I'm dark and thin. I'll make up for it when I come back. It's been a hard time." Jian Niang touched her child's face with pity. She knew that people outside envied her glory, but who Knowing that her child's hard work outside is all done with one knife and one gun, no matter how strong and skilled, is there no risk?

"Okay, I'll listen to my mother when I get back." Jian Leyang said with a smile.

"Your Majesty is back, please greet Your Majesty."

"Madams, please, everyone, you are welcome. Let's leave, the palace will hold a celebration banquet tonight!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Feng Yuan went out of the palace with Mrs. Gu, excited in the carriage: "I saw Your Majesty back then, at the Cangcui Pavilion opened by His Majesty, but at that time I didn't know that His Majesty was His Majesty, Your Majesty is so powerful, he defeated the barbarian army so easily I went back to my hometown, and I heard that there is a female general under His Majesty's account."

Thinking of the future mother-in-law by her side, Feng Yuan sticks out her tongue in embarrassment. It seems that it is not good to say such things in front of the future mother-in-law, but Mrs. Gu smiled and shook her head: "The life of this woman and brother will be different in the future, Don’t hold back anymore, just wait and see if you don’t believe me.”

The previous method will no longer apply, and His Majesty is not a person who can abide by the rules.

Jian Niang is distressed and proud of her son. Brother Yang accomplished a feat that no one else could. In just a few months, he defeated the Yidi army back to his hometown. Before that, the Yidi army was considered invincible.

"Brother Yang, you are becoming more and more powerful." Jian Niang thought of Jian Leyang waving his hand just now, and all the people took orders to leave, and the people who came with her family's brother Yang looked extremely respectful, Jian Niang and You Rong Yan.

Jian Leyang narrowed his eyes and smiled and said: "Mother will become more and more powerful in the future, and she will be more and more powerful in the future. Didn't mother see that father is not the same as before? Mother, now I have brought down the world, of course It is to let mother do whatever she wants, otherwise it will make you restrained, mother, no matter how high the family background is, no matter if they meet mother inside or outside the palace, they still have to act according to mother's face."

Jian Niang patted Brother Yang's hand in comfort: "Mother knows, she will raise her head and puff her chest out. No matter how despised my mother's background are, those people still have to try their best to make me happy and want me to remember them. Have fun, I have seen this kind of battle in Jinhai County before, but now the stage is bigger."

So what if you look down on her background, who told her to give birth to a good son and those people have no ability, those people's sons are not only incompetent, but also less filial than Brother Yang and Wen Yuan, Jian Niang thinks that this life is perfect.

The palace people who waited on Jian Niang all listened to Jian Leyang's words, remembering to always remind themselves not to make mistakes, and now the masters of this palace are Jian's family.

After returning to the palace, Jian Leyang was finally able to take a good hot bath and roll comfortably on the bed. His father and He Yunzhang went to the celebration banquet at night. By the way, he even ordered to reward the whole army. It's really troublesome to remind him to have fun with the people, this seat is not so easy to sit in, Jian Leyang thought in a daze before falling asleep.

This battle seemed to be fought easily and simply. Jian Leyang was superior both in force and in energy, but it took several months on the battlefield. He had to plan a strategy and obtain the greatest victory with the smallest sacrifice, which was exhausting both physically and mentally. It's not too young, and now that I'm back in the palace, I can finally relax.

It's not that the palace is home, but that now that his family is in the palace, this is the home where he can relax.

After the sun went down, people outside the palace rushed to the palace one after another to participate in the evening celebration banquet. Most of the dignitaries were invited, but the generals who followed Jian Leyang's triumphant return attracted more attention, and as early as in the afternoon, Father Jian and He Yunzhang arranged for a large amount of meat, vegetables, and drinks to be sent to the military camps inside and outside the city. Jian Leyang's earlier words of rewarding the army spread throughout the capital. No matter what the dignitaries thought, the common people applauded. They have fought hard in the war, shouldn't it be rewarding for them, and some merchants have also joined them.

In addition to the attention of these military generals, there are also some very special invited people who participated in the celebration banquet, that is, merchants who donated money and goods to expel the barbarian and Di army, and some even contributed manpower to participate in the delivery of grain and grass. Seeing these Merchants were preparing to enter the palace early, and many dignitaries disliked them very much. These merchants were full of copper stench. When will they be able to sit on an equal footing with them?

But they didn't dare to express their opinions randomly, because there was a word from the palace, Jian Leyang said that they are people who have made great contributions to the country and family, so they should be rewarded.

Many people regretted it in their hearts. In fact, what did Jian Leyang give these businessmen such great honor? It was not because these businessmen stood by Jian Leyang's side early in the morning and strongly supported his great cause of seizing the throne, so at this time, Jian Leyang will tell the capital to open up Seeing it, it is beneficial to support him, and those who do not support him will be sent to prison. An Guogong and others are still locked in the prison.

When the celebration banquet started, Jian Leyang led the generals and ministers to climb up the tower, and personally lit a row of fireworks. The fireworks rose into the sky, dazzling, and the city was decorated with lights and festoons, creating a sea of ​​jubilation.Jian Leyang took He Yunzhang's hand and walked down the tower together to continue the celebration banquet. This show of having fun with the people was arranged by He Yunzhang earlier, and he mobilized a large number of fireworks, which can be described as well-intentioned.

Seeing that Jian Leyang has no pretensions, walking side by side with He Yunzhang, talking head to head from time to time, occasionally looking at each other and smiling, it makes the people who follow behind look very complicated, but those generals don't think there is anything wrong, the two are not Have you been getting along like this all the time? If it wasn't for His Majesty's need to fight everywhere, they would have already drank this glass of wedding wine.

The businessmen who participated in the celebration banquet hugged together, saying "Your Majesty and Mr. He are the best match" and "Your Majesty and Mr. He are a match made in heaven", which made Jane's father and Jane's mother happy from ear to ear, although some dignitaries could not understand the flattery of these businessmen Flattering faces, but they still can't say no to this kind of occasion.

The celebration feast was so lively that the emperor and his ministers had fun together. A special historian in later generations reproduced this grand occasion in words.

In the early morning of the second day, the officials headed by He Xiyu invited Mr. Gu, Shi Shifeng, Zhang Meng and other military generals into the palace together to invite His Majesty to enthronement matters, such as how to hold the enthronement ceremony, the drafting of the country name, or the issue of the year name, of course. There is another important thing, that is, His Majesty is not young, and it is time to get married, so that the Jian family dynasty can continue.

Jian Leyang came out yawning. At the celebration banquet, a group of subordinates drank a lot of alcohol, and He Yunzhang couldn't escape, so he got up late after drinking too much, and listened to the chants of civil servants and generals with his chin propped up. At the back, Jian Leyang waved his hand and said, "Yes! You can discuss an agenda and come out, just set a date and let me know. Keep everything simple. By the way, enthronement and wedding can be held on the same day, and there is no need to hold them separately."

After finishing speaking, he waved his hand again, leaving behind a group of civil servants and generals, turned around and left, making many officials who were not familiar with his temperament dumbfounded.

"How about... Let's ask the Supreme Emperor again?" Although the title has not been formally determined, everyone knows that it is only a procedure missing.

"I think it's best to follow what your majesty said. Your majesty doesn't like red tape the most. It's better to decide on your name early, so that your majesty can start to rectify the court and officials from all over the place." He Xiyu thought for a while and said, I still know Jian Leyang somewhat, otherwise according to the normal level, I should have invited three times and four times just now, and Jian Leyang should have refused again and again, and finally had to agree to the request of my courtiers to become emperor, but Jian Leyang just heard it once and said directly Alright, let them go down and prepare, directly skipping many tedious processes.

This statement was unanimously agreed by Zhang Meng and other generals. His Majesty has such a temperament. His Majesty does not like people to be wordy, except for His Majesty's parents.

Well, let's do it like this, who made the current Majesty not be able to reason with common sense.

As a result, the officials began to get busy, and the enthronement and the wedding were held together. Not only the officials of the Ministry of Rites, but also other adults lost a lot of hair. This procedure cannot be copied from the previous dynasty. Sons and daughters are enthroned, and there is no brother with such a high status to marry a husband-in-law, so we can only innovate on the basis of the previous procedures and etiquette. It must be unconventional, and it must satisfy His Majesty, the Empress Dowager, and He Yunzhang .

When it comes to the Jian family dynasty, some people have strange faces, why?Because Jane's father was originally supposed to be named Jiang, this dynasty should be the Jiang Dynasty, but it's a pity that the old guy Jiang Bingshi was led by the nose by a woman, and his son was transferred and left outside, so he was kept in the dark. After more than 30 years When the son returned to the capital, he didn't say that he had to recognize him. So far, there is no father's name in the Jiang family tree, let alone Jian Leyang.

Seeing that the richness of the sky has nothing to do with the Jiang family, Uncle Nanping can still sit down, but the members of the Jiang clan can't sit still, one by one ran to the gate of the uncle's mansion, pointed at Uncle Nanping's nose and cursed, it's all about this Unbelievable things shut out a good emperor, and even the genealogy has never been published. Some clansmen whimsically proposed to re-enter the Gu family's son-in-law into the genealogy, and other clansmen were also moved to hear it. After all, everyone Those who knew Jian Dong's life experience were immediately ridiculed by Mrs. Gu, and now they are writing down the genealogy?late!When the Jian family rarely entered the Jiang family tree, whoever has the courage to go to the palace to report to His Majesty, who would dare without His Majesty's consent.

As a result, the members of the Jiang family could only scold Jiang Bingshi and his son angrily, and then left the uncle's residence in despair. No one from the uncle's residence was invited to the celebration banquet in the palace. , can only bring shame on himself, and then be beaten out of the palace.

After the Jiang clan went back, they scolded Jiang Bingshi, that jerk, and that bitch Chen, because they let go of the wealth and wealth of the Jiang family. Otherwise, the Jiang clan would all be members of the royal family. The situation of being ridiculed.
