Concubine Biography

Chapter 76

"Your Majesty..." Zhaoyang Palace, Han Ze changed his clothes and knelt in front of Li Jiarong as soon as he came out.

Li Jiarong glanced up at the inner room, then turned to Han Ze and said, "I have told you everything I should say today, and you are old enough, now..."

"Wei Chen knows," Han Ze lowered his head, "Wei Chen will go back and make preparations, and propose marriage to the Chen family tomorrow."

Li Jiarong straightened his face, "I'm not putting pressure on you or something. The incident happened suddenly today, and you are eager to save people. Concubine Rong is just this younger sister. If you don't want to, don't force it! I'm not a pedantic person, you No, think about it."

Han Ze raised his head and curled his lips slightly, "It's rare for Wei Chen to be serious! This girl... tsk tsk tsk, she is really tough! When Wei Chen changed clothes just now, I kept thinking, if she really married her back home , if there is a fight, I'm afraid Weichen is not her opponent. So Weichen is very hesitant, should I marry or not?"

Li Jiarong didn't say anything, but there was a smile in his eyes.

"After thinking about it, let's marry. It's a good thing that someone can fight with Wei Chen when his hands are itchy." Han Ze giggled.

Li Jiarong shook his head helplessly, "You look like this... that's all, someone will take care of you from now on."

The two talked for a while before Fu'er followed Chen Zheng out.

"How is little sister?" Li Jiarong asked.

Chen Zheng hurriedly stepped forward to salute, "Go back to the emperor, the little girl is fine, but there are two stab wounds on her leg, she will fall asleep due to excessive fright."

After Chen Zheng finished speaking, he stood aside and kept looking towards Han Ze. Han Ze rubbed his nose in embarrassment and turned his head away.

Fu'er sat on the side with a dark face and didn't speak. Li Jiarong winked and signaled Han Ze and Chen Zheng to go out.

As soon as Han Ze and Chen Zheng came out of the house, Chen Zheng turned around and bowed down, "Thank you, Da Sima, for your rescue. I am very grateful, and I ask Da Sima to be worshiped by me. After the little girl recovers from her injury, I will come to thank Da Sima again." . If Da Sima can use this official in the future, please just ask, and this official will definitely help you."

What does Han Ze mean in his words, does Chen Zheng mean that he doesn't want to marry his daughter to him?

Thinking of this, Han Ze tentatively asked, "It's unnecessary to come to thank you, Miss and I have a predestined relationship..."

"Big Sima!" Chen Zheng's expression changed, "My daughter is still young, so Da Sima doesn't have to stick to the mundane world! If Da Sima doesn't dislike me, I would like to marry Da Sima, and my daughter will call Da Sima uncle in the future. My uncle saved my niece, Da Sima Dayi, I am so grateful!"

Han Ze got a bad breath in his throat, uncle?Is he that old!If you want to save your niece, why don't you say that you are a goddaughter?He has always been the only one who speaks nonsense with his eyes open, but there is another master here!
Thinking of what Li Jiarong said to him, Han Zeyin laughed tentatively, "Master Chen, this matter happened in the harem, let's wait for the emperor to make a decision."

He made up his mind, and tomorrow he will ask for a marriage decree and take it to the Chen family, and call Chen Zheng a father-in-law!
Pushing away everyone, Fu'er couldn't hold back immediately.

"Who did it? How did they run to the imperial garden in such a good way? Who is shooting arrows to entangle Lvying? Where is the eunuch? Is it the queen or Zhaoyuan? Or Xiuyi? My sister is lying unconscious in there now , Your Majesty! This matter must be thoroughly investigated! I must catch the murderer!"

Fu'er stood up in a hurry and walked back and forth, Li Jiarong sighed, "The eunuch is dead, the hairpin tied around his neck by the younger sister is a fatal injury. Don't worry, I have already ordered someone to investigate, I believe it will be soon. There are results."

Fu'er clenched her fists tightly, "No matter who dares to hurt my family, I will definitely not let him go!"

At night, Xiao Qinzi and Xiao Fangzi came back to report.

"Go back to the emperor, the imperial concubine. The bow and arrow were found in the room of a eunuch. This eunuch was the last eunuch who was a handyman. He lived in the same room as the eunuch who died today. The servant checked and found that both eunuchs It was the first emperor who entered the palace in the 28th year of Jianhe, and had no relatives at home. After entering the palace, there was no money to manage, and the two of them could not be reused. According to the eunuchs who worked with them, the relationship between these two people is very good. , and is kind to people, although she is a little bit on the sidelines, there is nothing wrong with her."

"Where is that person now? I want to interrogate him myself!" Fu'er asked impatiently.

Xiao Qinzi frowned deeply, "He died, he died by taking poison, his clothes were neatly dressed, and there was no trace of a fight in the room, it seems that he was prepared for it long ago."

The thread is broken like this?Fu'er slumped on the chair.

"What materials are bows and arrows made of? What kind of poison is quenched on the arrows? Why are the two handyman eunuchs not on duty today?" Li Jiarong asked in a deep voice.

Xiao Fangzi replied, "The bows and arrows are common branches in the palace, and the arrowheads are also sharpened and tied up with wood. There is no tempering on the arrowheads, but they are pasted with paper, which is also used by last-minute servants. The paper used to paste the window is sprinkled with a powder called Lanmozi. This powder is commonly used by women on the streets of the capital to put on their hair and draw charming blue makeup. It is sold in hundreds of powder shops in the capital. Yes. Of the two eunuchs, one took a rest today, and the other changed jobs with others. After checking, there is nothing wrong with them."

All are commonly used things around, who is it?With such a meticulous mind, did ulterior motives harm Xi'er?Fu'er suddenly felt her vest go cold.

"And Xiao Shanzi also said that the eunuch was sneaking around outside Zhaoyang Palace today, probably with the intention of harming the imperial concubine, but it happened to be resolved by the fourth lady. We also read the note, the ink on it is cheap ink , and the handwriting is that of one of the eunuchs."

Where Xi'er resolved it, it was clearly Xi'er who suffered it for her!
Li Jiarong also frowned deeply, it didn't look like the Su family's handwriting, the Su family had just stepped down from the limelight, and she didn't dare to act rashly.

Is it Su Qi or Alan?
Probably not, of those two people, one likes to show off, but only the Su family follows suit.One is unruly and willful, and has no brains in doing things.

Who else?

Li Jiarong's face turned serious, "Go on, there are thieves in the palace recently, all the concubines stay in their own palaces, don't run around. You two, please obey the harem!"

"Yes!" Xiao Qinzi and Xiao Fangzi replied in response.

Li Jiarong took her hand, "Don't be sad, it's a good thing my little sister didn't get hurt any more. But do you have to worry about a problem now, what will happen when my little sister wakes up?"

"It'll be fine if she wakes up, what should I do?" Fu'er didn't realize what Li Jiarong said for a moment.

Li Jiarong frowned and said, "Many people saw Han Ze rescue the little girl ashore."

Fu'er gasped, and felt something was wrong in a blink of an eye, "How did Han Ze appear in the imperial garden? He saved my little sister so coincidentally, could it be arranged by the emperor?" She looked suspiciously at Li Jiarong.

Li Jiarong's face turned cold, "Who do you think I am? Han Ze entered the palace to report to me about Nanjiang and Dongping. Nanjiang is still a pool of muddy water, and Dongping is not stable anymore. Next to Dongping is Yuguo , Yuguo has frequently provoked troubles recently, intending to offend our court, but today is very boring, so I took Han Ze along and said, halfway there I heard something was wrong, Han Ze will be martial arts, so I went first."

Li Jiarong wasn't lying, he called Han Ze into the palace today, and indeed he talked about these issues, but there was another point that he was a matchmaker for Han Ze and Xi'er.

He had this idea a long time ago, if Han Ze married a wife, he would marry Xi'er to someone else.If Han Ze didn't marry a wife, he would marry the two of them.

Xi'er's entry into the palace actually hinted at Li Jiarong's own marriage. He mentioned it cryptically to Han Ze, and Han Ze always made jokes.

Fu'er knew that Li Jiarong still kept his old habits, and it was not surprising that confidantes like Han Ze and Yao Junsheng would accompany him to discuss matters.

"The emperor meant that he wanted to marry the younger sister to Han Ze, right?" Fu'er suddenly realized this matter.

Li Jiarong nodded, "Isn't it good?"

"Of course not! How old is Han Ze? How old is my younger sister? No, I don't agree to this marriage!" Fu'er immediately retorted.

Li Jiarong asked, "Tell me, why don't you agree? Don't talk about age, I'm ten years older than you. Han Ze didn't marry a wife, why can't my younger sister marry? And Han Ze, as the great Sima, holds the military power in the world , How can you not be good enough for a little girl? It’s not the first day you know him. Don’t you understand Han Ze’s personality? Although he likes to play a little bit, you haven’t seen what he does like, say Say, why don't you agree?"

Fu'er took a deep breath, "Okay, Your Majesty, let's not talk about age. Why didn't Han Ze marry a wife for so many years? Did he have a sweetheart or did he have other problems? It's not that he is eager to flock to him. How can a little girl be worthy of him if she has a naughty temper? Han Ze is a good man, and there is absolutely no problem in doing things. But marrying a man, marrying a man, dressing and eating, a woman does not marry because of how capable the man is, but because of the man If you love her or not, can you give her happiness!"

Li Jiarong looked at Fu'er, "Fu'er, it's because you don't know Han Ze, Han Ze is definitely a reliable man. And there is another point, having Han Ze as a sister-in-law will be good for Pei Ling in the future."

"Chen Qie doesn't need her own sister to perfect Pei Ling! Pei Ling will have his own way! Chen Qie won't agree to this!" Fu'er was very determined.

Xi'er has already been injured because of her, if Xi'er is made to sacrifice her whole life for Pei Ling, then she will never feel at ease for the rest of her life!

"Fu'er, although I am in my prime now, I will grow old sooner or later. If I take a step ahead one day, what will you and your two children do? As the queen, the residence of the Marquis of Lin'an is not as good as it used to be, but it can be run for several generations. The remaining prestige is still there, what do you have?" Li Jiarong's voice was low.

Fu'er was startled, and hurriedly walked up to Li Jiarong to look him up and down, "Is there something wrong with you, Your Majesty? Don't scare me..."

"No," Li Jiarong smiled and stretched out his hand to stroke her face, "Look, you are so young, how can I let something happen to me? The matter between Han Ze and the younger sister is settled like this, and he also agreed to it. Needless to say, I have made up my mind, and when my little sister gets well, I will marry them both."

Fu'er looked at the inner room and fell silent.

Li Jiarong sighed slightly in his heart, Su Er had been keen to win over the courtiers since he took over the title. After the boss of the Su family died suddenly, the eldest daughter was married to the son of General Zhenyuan by Su Er, and the limelight in the court gradually changed.It's really not a good thing that the Queen's mother's family dominates.

Han Ze seemed to be stimulated by the word "uncle", waiting for the news of Xi'er's wake-up to spread, he went to the palace to ask for an order, and when he got the marriage order, he came to the door to propose marriage with gifts of twelve colors Chen Zheng had no choice but to agree reluctantly.

After Xi'er got married, she could no longer live in the palace. After recovering from her injury, she was taken back to the Chen Mansion to be married, and the marriage was done within the year.

Da Sima married the imperial concubine's mother's family, and the original turmoil in the court immediately calmed down.

After the New Year's Eve, Mulong, the chief chieftain recommended by various ministries in Dongping, came to Beijing to worship with his daughter Doma.
