Zhen Guo Princess GL

"Princess Changle sent someone to send a handwritten letter." The servant walked in cautiously and whispered to Qi Qitong.

The decree of the marriage has been issued, Wei Huan is now the most honorable person in the family, and even Qiqi has become the number one among the servants.Neither the father nor the mother's servant dared to speak loudly in front of her.

Wei Huan hooked the corner of his mouth mockingly, intending to laugh, but he didn't laugh in the end, but turned his head coldly, and ordered: "Bring it."

Qiqi tactfully sent the manuscript to the bedside, helped Wei Huan get up, and quietly backed out.

Wei Huan gently stroked the letter in his hand.There is no lettering on the cover, and the paper is very ordinary. If you don't point it out, no one would know that this is the princess's handwriting.

When she opened it, she saw the familiar handwriting. For many days and nights in the past, she had copied this handwriting to copy books and forged homework for the owner of this handwriting. She no longer needs her help in these matters, so she just does some nosy things like collecting, compiling all the writing and paper of this person into books one by one, and putting them away by category, so that they can be reserved for later enjoyment in leisure time. capital.

That person's talent is actually not bad, but he still can't escape the word "lazy". He will never use one-fifth of what he can do with five percent of his energy. There is less classics, more tricks, and less calligraphy.

Therefore, even if he works hard now, his handwriting can only be regarded as mediocre among young girls of about the same age, not as good as Wei Huan, who could only learn secretly in the room since he was a child.

However, judging from this handwritten letter, her laziness seems to have improved a lot—there is only one sentence in the letter: "Will you be safe for a long time?" To leave a name, there is only one small seal carved in Zhuwen and seal "Changlian Zhu".

This Fang Xiaoyin was still living in the long optimistic moment. At that time, the relationship was first established. The two of them were stuck together from morning to night, and could not be separated for a moment. Even so, that person was not enough. Write a letter, put it under Wei Huan's pillow from his own desk, and engrave two small seals solemnly, one is in Zhu script, titled "Chang Optimistic Master", and the other is white document, titled "One Noon Tan Huan".

That person's literary talent is not very good, but sometimes he has shocking words, such as "Phoenix Tour on the Phoenix Terrace", "Greedy for a while", etc., are all fantastic sentences. I asked her to write an article according to the sentences, but she didn't understand. Ken, if it is not an original work, it cannot be stolen.

Wei Huan stretched out his finger nostalgicly, and stroked the word "Changle" back and forth. After a few breaths, Fang put on his clothes and got up, walked to the desk, and was about to call someone to study ink. Who? Is it still there?"

Qi Qi said: "It's a rich man named Feng, who said that the princess ordered him to wait for news from his wife before going back."

Wei Huan smiled wryly, and said, "Tell him, thank you for Wei Huan's return to Princess Qi, I have a plan before, so don't worry about it."

Qi Qi was puzzled and said: "Just these few sentences? Won't the lady reply a letter?"

Wei Huan shook his head, watched her go out and then slowly sat down with the help of the bedpost, lying on the bed on her side, remembering the mood of that person when she heard the reply, she curled up involuntarily—with her intelligence, she should Can you guess what happened between yourself and King Ji?

Although that matter was not what that person thought, but at the beginning, I really did have bad intentions.When I first discovered my strange feelings, the panic gathered and accumulated, and I was urged and forced by my family. I had to make false promises with the King Ji at that time and the current prince. Finally, many women who were favored by King Ji would go away. At that point, although he stopped temporarily because of his disgust, and King Ji was drunk again, he didn't remember what happened, but deception is deception.

Wei Huan still clearly remembers the day when she danced with Taiping. It was a day that she tried her best to remember, but also tried her best to forget.

Although Taiping put on weird makeup that day and looked ugly, in fact, he was unexpectedly humorous and cute when dancing, especially the half-childlike natural tenderness revealed when he raised his hands and feet, which made Wei Huan see I forgot to move several times, so I could only pretend to wave my hands.

Even thinking about it until now, Wei Huan still couldn't help feeling soft in his heart, and then sighed again-that day King Ji saw their dance, and he looked for it during the banquet, and Taiping had already drunk several times. cup, and was chattered by a few aunts, completely oblivious to what happened around her.Wei Huan was uneasy because of his feelings for Taiping, and because King Ji and Taiping were brother and sister, thinking that they were very similar in life, if he liked his younger sister, there was no reason not to like his elder brother, so he half pushed and half agreed. King Ji, went to the side hall.

It's a pity that the two are brothers and sisters of the same mother and compatriots, and their faces and temperaments are not without similarities. The one Wei Huan likes is still only his sister.Once the King of Ji is close, Wei Huan can't help but think of Wei Xun, then Qiniang, and after that, everything becomes scary. Not only can the King of Ji not be close, even being in the same room with him becomes a kind In pain, Wei Huan had to try to get the drunk King Ji drunk, and then managed to get away. He thought that the matter was over, but who knew that King Ji thought that something really happened between him and him, and kept saying that he was not irresponsible. Definitely want to give Wei Huan a title.

At first, this matter ended with the establishment of Princess Ji, but later, when Zhao Shiyou died, King Ji, or the prince, probably remembered this matter again, and at some point mentioned it to His Majesty, so Wei Huan himself Before he knew it, his father had already been elected as the governor of Yuzhou, and he was suddenly recorded under the name of "mother". That "aunt" suddenly became a "pro-aunt", the fourth daughter of Wei Xuanzhen. And suddenly became the future princess.

Counting the days when her father was chosen as the chief historian, when Wei Huan was beaten, the Queen of Heaven had already thought about it. It was ridiculous that she thought it was another way for the Queen of Heaven to rape her servants. Wei Xun, who took him home, realized that this was not just a servant who taught his daughter a lesson, but also a prestige specially given to his future daughter-in-law to get off the bus.

Fortunately, Wei Huan was still seriously injured at that time, and his shock, panic, and grief could all be explained by the pain on his back, and he did not arouse suspicion because of his strange behavior.When she returned to the capital, she had recovered from the shock and bewilderment, and learned to be a virtuous "Princess Concubine" peacefully and well-behaved.

After all, she has nothing else to do.

The action in the palace was very fast. The candidate who was selected in August was immediately determined on the date of the beginning of January. Because only that day is the best in several months, even Taiping's wedding was also set on the same day-now the world is full of people. Knowing that His Majesty's Holy Body is not hesitant, the Emperor and Empress love their children very much, fearing that observing filial piety will delay the auspicious date, so the marriage was arranged in a hurry - as soon as the decree was issued, Che Yu immediately returned to Beijing from Luoqi, and there was an endless stream of envoys along the way. Absolutely, most of the talk is about the marriage of Princess Changle:

There are no elders in the son-in-law's family, so we must choose someone with high morals and prestige to preside over the wedding. It is best to be a high-ranking official with a clean character. Only then can they match the identity of the Tian family; the parents of the son-in-law have long since passed away, and the gold and silverware used in the family are all customized according to the elder brother's grade. He had an official position, so he was first given the title of son of Nanyang County, and then the doctor of the middle school and the doctor of the dining department. In addition to various gifts of gold and silver, dowry and brocade embroidery, he was also given 500 million yuan in makeup powder; Sister, give money as much as a million...

Wei Huan doesn't know what Taiping herself thinks about this matter, but based on her understanding of Taiping, the more these news, the grander the marriage, the more painful Taiping will be.Ironically, according to the Emperor and Empress' love for this only daughter, these news are destined to be indispensable.

And today, I stabbed her heart severely again.

The only thing Wei Huan was thankful for was that the wedding date was rushed and the wedding was so grand, so she and Taiping had a lot to do these days.

There are many things and people are busy, so the pain will probably not be so deep.

In the middle of January, the wedding was held as scheduled.The prince accepted the concubine, and the princess came out.

As a bride, Wei Huan had no way of knowing what was going on outside, so she could only hear about her quietly from the discussions of the guests and servants.

Because the crown prince received his concubine on the same day, the emperor and empress could not come to the city gate to see him off in person, and many officials went to congratulate the prince, as if to make up for this regret. For the bridesmaids, Wannian County was used as a wedding hall, Huo Wangyuan railed the car, and made the scholars Yuan Wanqing, Hu Yuanfan, Liu Yizhi, etc. compose poems reminding them of make-up, and their son-in-law and fan were all used as ministers; the princess did not hate the car , and use the empress Zhai's car instead, which is more decorated and very impressive.

Wei Huan boarded the carriage by himself at dusk, and was taken into the palace by the ministers who were welcoming the prince on behalf of the prince. On the road, he occasionally saw the carriage and horse of the princess coming out. Many nearby trees were ignited by torches and turned into scorched wood.On the road, another middle-ranking official was riding a horse and throwing money at one step, attracting countless disciples and congesting the already congested road. She tried hard to see Taiping's car clearly, but when she saw Taiping's car, she saw a sea of ​​people, and she didn't know where she was going. One end was her Zhai chariot, the two of them came out and entered the palace, only met once outside the palace gate, then passed each other and went into each house.

At this moment, even my own heart is stuffy and painful. That person has always had a heart disease, so I don't know how to feel uncomfortable right now?Fortunately, it has been a few months since the marriage was decided, and the sadness and illness should have all passed.

Wei Huan sat silently, allowing himself to be sent into the palace gate, helped out of the car, and followed the people without saying a word, passing through the divination, setting up the tent, and worshiping - suddenly there was a commotion around him during the worshiping. The small commotion, Wei Huan couldn't see clearly in the chaos, didn't know what was the reason, but saw her prince and husband-in-law suddenly straightened up, turned to look at his parents, and then continued the worship, but the hall was quieter just now Many, Wei Huan felt uneasy in his heart, and kept peeking out, trying to read some news from the faces of the guests.

It can't be peace, she thought anxiously, sweating in her palms, she didn't pay attention when she was suddenly pulled by the prince and walked backwards, she fell a bit, but fortunately the servants helped her to survive, but the prince gave him a displeased look .

Wei Huan saw the prince's gloomy face, and his heart was in a state of turmoil. He was sent into the new house like a clay puppet, and he listened to the rumors outside—the outside is more chaotic than before. Human brain hurts.

Wei Huan stole a look at the crown prince. Her newly married husband-in-law absent-mindedly drank wine and had his hair tied before asking someone to change his clothes. Wei Huan suddenly became quick-sighted at this moment. He got up with one step, took the casual clothes from the servant, and said: "The concubine assists the prince to change clothes." While speaking, he took off the prince's dress and put on casual clothes for him.

The author has something to say: She is used to serving Taiping, and she is impatient, so she moves very quickly. After the prince changed his clothes, he looked back at her and said calmly: "Something is going on outside, if I don't come back, you can go to bed first. "Go out in a hurry, and leave Wei Huan alone in the new house.

There was no one available for Wei Huan, so he could only sit on the edge of the bed in a daze. It was not until dawn that someone came to report: "The princess had a heart attack last night, and she returned to the palace on the way. She hasn't woken up yet. The crown prince ordered the lady to go to the palace." Watch."

Wei Huan groaned, grabbed the man's hand and said, "Where is the man?"

The man showed pain, Wei Huan quickly stopped, and heard the human say "Lingqi Palace", before changing clothes, and without calling for the chariot, he stepped out quickly, and walked all the way from the East Palace to Lingqi Palace in a short time.

Some thoughts about the Tang Dynasty:

1. The Tang Dynasty mixed the northern and southern ethos of the previous dynasties, forming an openness between the royal family and the common people, while the conservative ethos of the gentry, princesses and folk people remarried a lot, but the rules of the family are still somewhat similar to those of the later Song Dynasty. Chaste and staunch (it doesn’t mean not to divorce or remarry, the customs of the people in the Tang Dynasty are relatively better than later, and the meaning of family affection is also stronger), the bride (meaning daughter-in-law, not the meaning of new daughter-in-law) needs to serve her uncle and take care of her relatives , do housework, and don't underestimate foreign men.Therefore, the painting style of noble women is actually very different from that of some princesses.

2. The Tang Dynasty was relatively cold-blooded towards slaves and maidservants, and slaves, maidservants and concubines were not regarded as equals.Concubine and livestock are not finished.Up to the enlightened emperors such as Tang Taizong, who openly discriminated against former princesses and official daughters (who bore children for him) who had been confiscated in the palace, saying that "the Han Dynasty often selected Luoyang middle-aged and beautiful children in August, and returned them to the harem. , this cannot be the law. However, in the palace today, there are many mouths of supporting servants, so that it is not appropriate for them to give birth to the kings. According to this, the selection of supplementary palaces should be based on etiquette."He called himself "the mouth of servants" to his concubines, he could not "give birth to the kings", and he was extremely indifferent to the children born to them. There are also various random gifts, killing, abuse and even eating of slaves and concubines in the notes of the Tang Dynasty. For example (not out of helplessness or lack of food, but purely out of interest), although people at the time condemned them for being unkind, no one said it was illegal.For them, slaves and maidservants are really objects, not "people". (In this regard, the Ming and Qing Dynasties were actually progressive, especially in the Qing Dynasty, the attitude towards the court ladies was unprecedented, probably because the court ladies were all bannermen ╮(╯_╰)╭).

3. Since concubines are objects rather than people, most people in ancient times were very tolerant of same-sex love-love, as long as you do what you should do (serve uncles and aunts, take care of uncles and sister-in-laws, give birth to sons, take care of the house, Obey the etiquette and treat the same-sex person as a tool rather than an equal person), then it is still within the scope of tolerance.Li Shimin loves the eldest grandson deeply, and hates many concubines who are not worthy of entering the palace, but still has children with them; Daiyu is jealous of Baochai and not so jealous of Jiang Yuhan and Xiren, all for this reason.Having a same-sex relationship with a concubine is roughly equivalent to indulging in entertainment today, and the reaction of your parents depends on the degree of your indulging.At the same time, the importance of this entertainment to you varies in thousands of ways. It may be a drama you stay up all night chasing, or a big show that you defend to the death, or an out-of-print collection that you bought only a year ago, so that you will never forget it, or it may be You just click on a web game when you’re bored, play it a few times and forget about it, or a 3-minute hobby, and then lose it after a few days—it’s not your serious girlfriend anyway.

4. The harem in the Tang Dynasty was not as low-status as it was in the Qing Dynasty.The Queen holds considerable power.At the same time, the harem also has the same class rank as the ministers, and can be promoted step by step according to age, seniority, meritorious background, etc. The emperor generally does not intervene.Therefore, Concubine Yin and Concubine Wei, whom Li Shimin disliked, could be promoted to the fourth concubine. Although Zetian did not allow the harem to be close to Gaozong, there were basically all the grades that should be filled in the harem.In addition, "talented people" were actually quite high-ranking concubines in the Tang Dynasty. Zetian became a talented concubine when she entered the palace. Help should be unquestionable) afterwards.In the Tang Dynasty, the princes were only the first rank (all the princes in the Qing Dynasty were super ranks, many levels beyond the first rank), many prime ministers were only the third rank, and those above the fifth rank were regular officials, who were eligible to participate in ordinary court meetings.In addition, official positions in the Tang Dynasty were not determined by rank. Sometimes the seventh rank was promoted to the ninth rank, and the fifth rank was promoted to the sixth rank.

5. Due to the fact that the empress has too much power, and the prince and concubine actually have considerable power, the emperors in the middle and later periods gradually invaded the power of the prince and empress, and even did not establish a prince or empress in the later period (in order not to set up a prince or empress) If you interfere with your love affairs, you will be beaten to death and refuse to make your original wife as the queen, insisting on making her a noble concubine), do not accept the crown princess for the prince, or do not provide the prince with a full set of staff or good staff, and do not give the crown princess Power (Similar to the queen, the crown princess is also assisted by a whole set of harem team to manage many women's affairs), which has caused many succession problems.
