128: The prince chooses the concubine (3 more)
Meng Huaijin said in the letter that the emperor had three princes at the age of marriage, and the emperor had already chosen a daughter-in-law for the prince, so he hoped that Cheng would make plans early.
So this letter was not written to her, but was just to use her mouth to pass on the message?
The emperor has three sons who are adults and reach the age of marrying a wife. This matter has nothing to do with Cheng Qing.
Although her family has three sisters, her family background is not enough to marry into the royal family, and it is impossible to match any son of the emperor.
Even if he is worthy, Cheng Qing never thought of marrying his sisters into the royal family... Marrying someone else, Cheng Qing can still control his three brother-in-law in the future and let them live with their sisters with peace of mind and not have those colorful things.
Marrying a prince is a noble man who shoulders the responsibility of spreading the royal family. Will he only marry one woman?
A woman who married into the royal family enjoyed the ultimate wealth and power. Similarly, no matter how much bitterness and tears there were, she could only knock her teeth and blood to swallow her. Cheng Qing couldn't stand up for her sisters. Who is more awesome than the princes, unless she successfully rebelled and rebelled. Although she had the confidence to make a name for herself in the Great Wei Dynasty, she had not yet expanded to that point!
So what plans did Meng Huaijin ask Cheng to make?
Based on Cheng Qing's understanding of the Cheng family in Nanyi, Cheng took the orthodox path and absolutely had no idea of being a relative of the outside world.
The relatives of the foreigners can only be prominent for one day. If they are too arrogant, they cannot escape being liquidated by the next emperor. It is better to be a pure minister like the Cheng family, and whoever becomes the emperor will be loyal to him. No matter who becomes the emperor, they need ministers to help govern the world. As long as the children of the Cheng family have a promising future, they will not be afraid of being down.
Cheng made a fortune in silence, was low-key, and was self-protection. Therefore, the fifth master did not want Cheng Qing to interact with the Yewang Mansion. The Yewang Mansion was the rock at the crater. Looks so popular that when the volcano erupted, the entire Yewang Mansion would be buried by volcanic ash!
"What did Huai Jin say in the letter? Although he left Nanyi, he always cared about you junior brothers and Cheng. The Meng family received great kindness from Cheng, and we, mother and son, have never forgotten..."
Mrs. Meng was nagging, and Cheng Qing was a little distracted.
Senior Brother Meng is thinking about Cheng's family... Cheng Rong? This letter asked Cheng to prepare early, talking about the aunt Cheng Rong of the fifth wife?!
Cheng Qing almost jumped up.
She is close to Wufang, so she naturally knows that Cheng Rong entered Beijing when she participated in the county examination.
He said he was going to Mr. Cheng Liu's house in the capital to relax.
It was June this time. Cheng Rong was walking slowly, and he should be in the capital at this time.
Cheng Qing had something in his mind, so he didn't want to stay in the Meng family. He cared about the time when Mrs. Meng set off and asked if there was nothing to help, Cheng Qing said goodbye. Mrs. Meng also asked her if she had any letter to bring to Meng Huaijin, and Cheng Qing smiled:
"Auntie just helps my nephew with a few words. Senior Brother Meng won the top scorer. The next step is to enter the official career. My nephew only hopes that Senior Brother Meng will take care of himself."
I don’t know how deeply the involvement between Meng Huaijin and Xiao Yunting is, but Xiao Yunting gives Cheng Qing a feeling that it is too dangerous.
Sick and perverted.
The worse you are in good health, the easier it is to indulge yourself. Anyway, you can earn more than one day of life, so just do it crazy.
Meng Huaijin has a bright future. Apart from being involved with Xiao Yunting, he can make a breakthrough by himself.
As for whether Meng Huaijin will listen to the advice... Cheng Qing can only say that he tried his best to persuade him. He is worthy of his conscience and it is not in vain that Meng Huaijin gave her a small lecture. Without Meng Huaijin clarifying her basics, Cheng Qing could pass the scholar but could not get a little three-yuan!
After coming out of the Meng family, the sky in June changed as soon as possible. The sky became darker. The entire Nanyi County was shrouded under thick black clouds. A flash of lightning broke through the sky. The heavy rain poured down. Cheng Qing ran quickly to the fifth room.
Cheng Rong went to Beijing to find a good son-in-law, and there must be something wrong with it, otherwise Meng Huaijin would not have been stupid about the royal family's choice of daughter-in-law!
Did Cheng Rong be attracted by a prince?
When the prince has not appointed a prince today, it is logical that all princes have the opportunity to win the championship.
For the supreme throne, everything can be sacrificed, including the prince's own marriage. Cheng Qing had to fight for it even if he was in that position, and he was reincarnated as a prince. Why should she be willing to be ordinary and be a prince in the future?
The royal family has no true love, and father and son are not trustworthy, and husband and wife are mostly in combination with interests. It is a good time for princes to win over their power. Marrying the right wife will bring great help.
Civil and military officials are the targets of the princes.
Some people want support from the army, so they want to marry the daughter of the general and noble family. Anyway, they only have military power. Some people want civil servants to help, and those cabinet masters and the six ministers of the ministry are both good marriage partners... Master Cheng Liu is now the Minister of Works, and he is in charge of one. In addition to being in the cabinet, he has a great foundation in the court.
Thinking about this, is Cheng Rong really a bit dangerous?
Although Cheng Rong is just the niece of Shangshu Cheng, how different is the niece and daughter if they really want to marry each other? Cheng Rong not only has an uncle who is the minister, but also a father who is the leader of the Cheng clan. Which prince married Cheng Rong, the entire Cheng clan of Nanyi was tied to a chariot.
When Cheng Qing talked about his analysis to the fifth master, the fifth master's face turned as dark as the bottom of the pot.
"absurd!"
No matter how noble the prince is, he is not a good match for Rong Niang.
What's more, Nanyi Cheng's family has developed very well, so why did they get on the ship of a certain prince?
In addition to building academy, Cheng has always been low-key, and can be said to be a model for making a fortune in silence. The fifth master was puzzled by how his daughter Cheng Rong was targeted shortly after she arrived in the capital.
The fifth master was very annoyed and he had fewer concerns when talking to Cheng Qing:
"The three princes and three different mothers are not born by the Empress of the Central Palace. If you don't have a crown prince now, everyone thinks they have a chance. The harem has been competing for favor for many years. The Holy Life is in its 50s, and the eldest prince has only won the championship this year, because the princes born before did not stand... Rong Niang is going to marry the prince, I'm afraid that it's not that others eat nothing left!"
The fifth master was walking in the study.
Cheng Qing was dazzled.
"Uncle, why is this? Senior Brother Meng's reminder may be to prevent trouble before it happens. If any prince really has thought about Aunt Rong, how could the sixth uncle not send a letter to inform me?"
The fifth master's face became darker.
Cheng had not received any news about choosing a prince's concubine. No matter where Meng Huaijin got the news, he was already ahead of Cheng.
This is a possibility.
There is another possibility that the fifth master is in a very bad mood... The news from Nanyi depends entirely on Master Cheng Liu, who is the Secretary of the House. What if the sixth brother did not tell him on purpose?
Cheng Qing also guessed the second possibility.
If Mr. Cheng Liu deliberately hides it, the matter will be more troublesome.
For a long time, Master Wu and Master Cheng Liu were close brothers. One was in a stable rear of Nanyi and the other was charging in the court. Whenever it was difficult to decide, the two brothers were both inconvenient and good.
Thanks to these two people, coupled with the accumulation of the Cheng family in Nanyi, the Nanyi Academy exists and a stable environment for the children of Cheng family, including Cheng Qing, to study with peace of mind.
