Emperor Renzong of the Great Song Dynasty

Fan Zhongyan opened his mouth, as if he couldn't think of anything to say, so he said: "Master Di is not young anymore. Marriage between a man and a woman is a lifelong event. Your Majesty is his cousin and his father. It stands to reason that you should Worry about him."

Zhao Yiyi looked at Fan Zhongyan suspiciously: "It's so bright, why did you suddenly say such a thing?"

Both Fan Zhongyan and Di Qing are his valued team members, and they have worked together for a long time.But these two people have one document and one military, and Di Qing was detained in the Forbidden Army camp most of the time. It stands to reason that the friendship between the two of them is not enough to help them deal with their marriage concerns.

If it is said that he is worried about marriage, it should be Zhao Yiyi who is worried about marriage for Di Qing.

The return of civil and military stars made him quite uneasy. Bao Zheng's marriage was settled, and they planned to get married this summer, so Zhao Yiyi didn't need to intervene again.

On Di Qing's side, it's been almost three years since Xixia came back. Zhao Yiyi has been trying to find a marriage partner for him since he came back. The king's news.

But why did Fan Zhongyan start to worry about Di Qing?

Zhao Yiyi narrowed his eyes.

Fan Zhongyan is not a matchmaker either. Zhao Yiyi had never seen him urge marriage before when he was not married. Why do you have to worry about life-long affairs for a person who can't get married this time?

There must be something weird about this matter.

Zhao Yiyi smiled: "Come on, Fan Qing, let's sit down and talk."

He pulled Fan Zhongyan to the table by the window and sat down facing each other.

"Come on, have some tea."

Liu En made a cup of tea for each of them. This time, there was no tea, and the tea powder floated chaotically on the water.

Zhao Yiyi took a sip, and said to Fan Zhongyan who was obviously worried: "Fan Qing, have you encountered anything recently?"

Fan Zhongyan put the teacup aside: "No."

Zhao Yiyi looked at his unconsciously rubbing fingers, and thought, what are you rubbing your hands for nothing.

He himself has this problem, and he likes to rub his fingers when he is nervous and anxious.Over time, all the people around him were infected by him. Except for the robot Liu En, everyone else got into the bad habit of rubbing their fingers.

Zhao Yiyi sighed: "Actually, I have considered what Fan Qing said."

"Di Qing is my cousin. He is young, handsome, and unmarried. Even if I don't worry about him, his aunt, Princess Di, has to worry about him. To be honest, Princess Di has been taking care of him since he came back. Looking for a wife candidate."

Fan Zhongyan nodded, as if letting go of a big stone in his heart: "That's good."

Zhao Yiyi said: "But for a while, it is difficult to find a woman whose family background, appearance, talent, learning, and character match him well. Even if there is such a woman, whether she is willing to marry is another matter."

He looked at Fan Zhongyan with a smile: "Fan Qing, do you have any good candidates to recommend?"

Fan Zhongyan shook his head: "I don't understand things in the boudoir."

"Other people don't understand, don't your own family understand?"

Zhao Yiyi asked, "Doesn't Fan Qing have a daughter?"

Fan Zhongyan's expression changed suddenly: "This..."

Zhao Yiyi looked at him steadily.

Sure enough, you have a problem.

I have to urge Di Qing to get married. There is an unmarried daughter of the right age in the family. Whenever this daughter is mentioned, her face changes...

Brother, you are too obvious.

What is the difference between this and those parents in later generations who are afraid of their children's puppy love?

Zhao Yiyi knocked on the table: "Xiwen."

Fan Zhongyan said: "The minister is here."

The emperor usually didn't call him by his name, but when he called him, it meant that he was a little angry.

Zhao Yiyi said: "What exactly happened, let me explain it one by one. Even if there are any problems that I need to solve, you have to confess everything so that I can help you."

Fan Zhongyan closed his eyes: "I obey the order."

He told everything about the past few days in detail.

Zhao Yiyi nodded while listening, and said in his heart, it really is.

It turned out that Fan Zhongyan had a daughter who was old enough to talk about marriage, and the family was looking for a suitable husband for her.As a result, just a few days ago, when Di Qing returned to court and rode horses through the streets, this Miss Fan caught a glimpse and fell in love at first sight.

Miss Fan is a polite person, she fell in love at first sight secretly, she didn't tell her parents, she just hid in her room and was ashamed.

But the parents still knew about it.

Knowing that his daughter actually fell in love with Di Qing who had just returned to the imperial court, Fan Zhongyan was very surprised, and immediately asked his daughter to forget about this person. After a year or two, he would find a good marriage for her.

Miss Fan was silent and agreed.

From then on, I never saw Miss Fan secretly hiding in a corner blushing. I saw her reading and composing poems on weekdays. She read books of sages and wrote epic poems.

Who is Fan Zhongyan, reading the poems written by his daughter, how can he not understand his daughter's grief.

But he couldn't help it, who told his daughter that she shouldn't, she fell in love with it...

If it was someone else, he wouldn't be able to...

Fan Zhongyan saw his daughter's poems getting more and more angry, crying blood every word, and he felt uncomfortable.

He just thought that his daughter's feelings for Di Qing only came from that glance on the long street, which was illusory.Later, when I heard about his deeds and heard that he did not discuss marriage, he might have some longing, and this ethereal feeling was condensed into substance.

But this feeling is a moon in the water and a flower in the mirror. As long as Di Qing gets married, or she gets married and punctures the fantasy, the feeling will gradually dissipate.

Fan Lingyi's current state is really not suitable for marriage, and Fan Zhongyan is also reluctant to let her get married in such a sad situation, so he wonders if Di Qing can get married first.

So he came to Zhao to benefit.

After hearing this wave of explanations, Zhao Yiyi couldn't laugh or cry.

"Fan Qing", he sighed with a smile: "Since Ling'ai is interested in Di Qing, then you can tell Di Qing for her that if he is willing, he will come to propose marriage. If he is not willing, Ling'ai can give up. Why did you come all the way? Am I here to force me to mess up the mandarin ducks?"

"Besides, Di Qing respects you quite a lot, so he may not be willing to come to your house to propose marriage. If he agrees, isn't it a happy thing for everyone? If your love meets a lover, you will also have an extra son-in-law."

Fan Zhongyan said: "Actually, I don't want my daughter to marry Lord Di."

Zhao Yiyi wondered, "Why?"

He stretched out his hand and gestured: "That's Di Qing! Like that! Looks like that!"

Di Qing has grown up in the past two years, and after going to the battlefield for a while, he has a more serious demeanor. It's not Zhao Yiyi, but his cousin, who stops at the gate of Bianliang City, waiting to marry him The girl had to line up to the Guazhou Ferry in Yangzhou.

In the end, Fan Zhongyan was still not willing to let his daughter marry him?

He pondered: "Does Fan Qing feel that Di Qing's background is not glorious?"

Although Di Qing is Niangniang Di's nephew now, Fan Zhongyan knows his true identity, he is not a nobleman, but a prisoner.

But... Fan Zhongyan should also understand that although Di Qing was a prisoner, it was to take the blame for his brother.

And regardless of the origin of the hero, Di Qing is about to become a privy envoy. Isn't this status worthy of Fan Zhongyan's daughter?

Fan Zhongyan shook his head: "Absolutely not. The minister just..."

He looked at Zhao Yiyi with a tangled face.

Officials, quicken your wits!

Zhao Yiyi looked back at him with a puzzled expression.

What are you looking at me for?

"You don't dislike his origin, so what else is there to dislike about him?"

Fan Zhongyan smiled wryly: "I just... really can't have an in-law relationship with Master Di..."

Can't be related by marriage?

Zhao Yiyi thought for a while, and suddenly realized.

That's it!

Fan Zhongyan and Di Qing were both core figures in his royalist party. Di Qing was arranged by him to take over Kou Zhun's military post, and Fan Zhongyan was arranged by him to take over Kou Zhun's civilian post.

If these two people fit together, wouldn't it be another Kou Zhun!

It turned out that Fan Zhongyan was worried about this, for fear that the intermarriage of civil and military affairs would make the emperor uneasy.

Zhao Yiyi shook his head with a smile: "Fan Qing."

"Actually, you are right. I should indeed arrange a marriage for Di Qing."

Fan Zhongyan said: "Your Majesty is wise."

Zhao Yiyi said: "Why don't I give Miss Fan and Di Qing a marriage."

Fan Zhongyan was startled and said, "This...how did this happen?"

Official, you...are you stupid?

Zhao Yiyi said: "Why can't it be done. You see," he and Fan Zhongyan calculated one by one: "Di Qing is a martial artist. Master, Ling Ai must also be well-read in poetry and books, in this regard, the couple can complement each other."

"Di Qing is a soldier, an official of the imperial court, and my cousin. To marry a wife, you must marry a woman of the right family. Husband and wife are enemies, so that we can communicate on an equal footing. In terms of family, your two families are also quite compatible. "

"The last point," Zhao Yiyi said with a smile, "for unmarried men and women, since Miss Fan is so infatuated, you, Fan Qing, as a father, have to fight for her lifelong happiness. Why don't you go back and ask today What Di Qing means, if he is willing, I will decree to marry you tomorrow."

He counted the days: "Tomorrow, it can't be later. If it is later, there will be more things."

Fan Zhongyan frowned and said, "The officials..."

How could he not understand this truth? If nothing else, must he see his daughter in such pain?If possible, how could he not want her to happily marry his sweetheart?

It's just that the official family grew up in an environment where ministers were monopolized. How could he be happy to see his right-hand man openly marry?

Zhao Yiyi said helplessly: "Fan Qing, tell me, who is my queen?"

Fan Zhongyan said: "She is the daughter of Duke Lai."

Zhao Yiyi said: "Yes. It is the daughter of the Duke of Lai. I married the daughter of the Duke of Lai and gave birth to a son and a daughter with her. These are all my heirs."

"Who is Di Qing? Di Qing is my cousin and the deputy of the Duke of Lai. When the Duke of Lai cultivated and supported him, what he thought of was not his identity, but his talent. One day, he will eventually stand on the opposite side of him, but Duke Lai still relies heavily on him."

Zhao Yiyi patted Fan Zhongyan on the shoulder: "Fan Qing, don't be afraid."

"I am not a person who gives up food because of choking, nor is it a person who is a shadow of a snake. Whose cousin, whose daughter, and whose close minister is the person in front of me, what does it matter? I believe that you will not betray me. I am not afraid, and neither should you." Fear."
