After many days of the imperial decree of bestowing marriage, the ministers who were still immersed in shock and hesitation gradually realized that it was Guan Guozuo, who was important enough to cause the court to quarrel for half a month. An imperial decree from the saint has been given without explanation!

And that person is Fu Nanyin again!

At the court meeting some time ago, they thought about what would happen to this descendant of the Ning family after the Minister of Rites and the Marquis of Anping; , but I never thought that the sage would let a man marry into the royal family and take the position of the princess!

Even a fertile man is still a man after all...

In the past, I only heard that the sage favored his son because of his classmate friendship with Ning Xu in Hongwenkan, but Ning Xu was just a companion at the time. If it was only for this reason, the sage's attitude towards Fu Nanyin was too much up.

This imperial decree really caught all officials by surprise, what they didn't remember to say at the palace banquet was written in the memorial in the next few days, and fell into the political affairs hall like snowflakes.

Coincidentally, Ning Shangshu was quite diligent in those few days, so he just went to sit in the hall.

The official who sorted out the case files for the Shangshu tremblingly placed the memorials in front of Funanyin's eyes—from Yushitai to the door of Zhongshu, and even the six books of the Shangshu were divided into three piles, piled up like a mountain.

"Is this all to impeach me?"

Funanyin pursed her lips, but she didn't show any expression other than that. It took a long while before she randomly took out a book from the leftmost stack.

"Crown Princess..." His voice paused, "You say I am... the weight of the ancestral temple and the virtues of women in the imperial court? A sage is a wise man?"

That's all for the previous sentence, what is women's virtue?

The official of the Political Affairs Hall heard Ning Shangshu's tone of disbelief, and then realized which stack of memorials he was looking at, and hurriedly explained:

"The lower official was afraid that the minister would not be able to read the book, so he roughly divided the papers according to the contents. The one on the left is flattering... congratulations, and the one in the middle is urging you to marry the prince. pile……"

That's all for the officials.

Funanyin then looked at the few memorials on the right, took one out, glanced up and down, and then slowly relaxed the brows that were frowning because of shock.

"Qin Xianglian, Qin Yushi, this is him again."

At first, when he was behind King Linzi and Ke Shunzhe, he wrote a lot of papers about the impeachment of Li Pei, and sometimes there were angry words in the court. The censor, however, remained the same, writing the excerpts without stopping, adding a bit of backbone to himself.

"It is said that there has never been a precedent for an official in the harem since ancient times in the Central Plains, not to mention the chaos of foreign relatives. If I want to enter the Eastern Palace, I need...resign from office?"

Funanyin's "resignation" didn't stop, and the ministers who were secretly listening to the movement in the political affairs hall turned their heads away.Obviously, they have all read Qin Yushi's book, and their words are extremely bold, and they can completely offend this very popular concubine Shangshu from the first word.

If Fu Nanyin is a gentleman who can hold a boat in his belly, then Qin Xianglian is using this to grandstanding.Who doesn't know Fu Nanyin?Qin Xianglian's move was sensational, but he was trying to die.

So who doesn't want to know Fu Nanyin's reaction?

"It's not unreasonable."

But unexpectedly, Funanyin laughed.

He put together Qin Yushi's memorial and put it back again, "Although I have no one in my family, and the official rank falls on me, I can barely be regarded as a foreign relative; there is no prince or concubine in the court in the past few dynasties. Served."

Everyone was stunned.

The official stood beside Fu Nanyin, and there was no trace of anger on the latter's face, which made him even more uneasy, "Ning Shangshu, don't take what those people at Yushitai said to you seriously. They all choose something that is difficult to hear..."

Funanyin raised her hand to stop him, and pointed at the copywriting.

"Send the few copies of Qin Yushi and the stack of flattering saints to the Lizheng Hall."

The official Chi asked, "The married one..."

"What did you say?"

Looking at Ning Shangshu's half-smile, the official reacted abruptly, said "Understood" a few times, and then left the Zhengshitang holding the two stacks of memorials, and went to the Lizheng Hall.

It's just that when I was walking on the road, my heart couldn't help beating: Ning Shangshu and the prince have been together for a long time, and even their demeanor at certain times have become more and more similar. Just now, the eyes that were obviously smiling showed a hint of coercion , really scary.

……

Ever since that day in the Zhengshitang, the court has not known where the rumors first spread——

On the day of the big wedding in the East Palace, the princess will resign from the post of Minister of Rites in order to avoid the suspicion of her relatives.

But a few days later, the rumor changed, and it became "Ning Shangshu is reluctant to part with his official career, so he will not marry the prince for the time being."

When Li Peishang heard the first sentence, he laughed it off, and said to his subordinates: "Whether the Crown Princess is an official or not, Gu will not underestimate him, so I will resign." Officer, taking advantage of the victory to pursue: "What are you looking at? Ten of you heads put together can't compare with the crown princess."

All the subordinate officials: "..."

As a result, Li Pei soon stopped laughing, because he realized that the latter sentence was not groundless.

At that time, two days after the rumors raged in the government and the public, His Royal Highness still had leisure time and sneaked into the Anping Marquis Mansion in the middle of the night to spend a good night with the Crown Princess-to-be, and urged Fu Nanyin like a hated daughter-in-law waiting in her boudoir:

"I heard that Qin Tianjian has calculated a lot of good days, has the gift giving department read it?"

Fu Nanyin was held in Li Pei's arms, and while looking at the theory of governing the world written by the top three in the spring of last year, she replied as if she didn't care: "Didn't the saint give you a marriage? A wedding is just a ceremony, and I am not A woman, don't care."

Li Pei was keenly aware of the evasiveness and inactivity in his words, and a certain guess flashed in his mind, and he was vigilant and tentatively pretending to be relaxed:

"Recently, there are some rumors in the court that you don't want to marry Gu for the sake of official position. It's really ridiculous!"

Funanyin's hand holding the file really paused, and she turned to look at Li Pei.He didn't tie his hair up at night, and the long, dark hair gently scraped against Li Pei's neck, making it tickle.

The latter was a little distracted, so he thought in his heart: It's too ridiculous at this time, how could Ah Yin not marry him if he loves him so much?

"Otherwise what should I do?"

"What?" Li Pei was taken aback, then asked subconsciously, and then his heart sank suddenly, and the terrible conjecture just surfaced again, "Could it be that... you really spread the word?"

Funanyin didn't admit it, but looked up at Li Pei's puzzled eyes, and asked stubbornly, "Li Pei, do you want me to resign?"

Resigned from the official position, like the women in the harem of the past dynasties, confined to the world.

This is a sending proposition.Li Pei thought about these words back and forth, and even when he understood, there was some helplessness at the end of his eyes: "You are really..."

At this time, he definitely can't repeat what he said to the officials of the East Palace that day, especially what Fu Nanyin said just now, he is not a woman and doesn't care about the ceremony, but Li Pei knows that he has his own cares.

"You don't have to resign."

Funanyin narrowed her eyes.

There were not many people who went to Shushu together with Qin Yushi, but it did not prevent him from expressing the thoughts of those who were afraid to speak out due to Funanyin's power.

"Why didn't Ning Shangshu show the viciousness that broke the situation when the father made things difficult for you in the past?" Li Pei stroked the hair on the back of Fu Nanyin's head, and seeing the person in his arms put down the file in his arms, he turned around and raised his arms around it. It hugged his waist, like a cat that was satisfied with the benefits, and became obedient inexplicably.Li Pei couldn't help laughing and said:

"According to your style, shouldn't you choose all of them generously? The Minister of Rites, Marquis of Anping, and Crown Princess, you all have them in your bag?"

Fu Nanyin buried her nose in Li Pei's chest and softly "hummed", raised her head and said to humanity with a half-smile: "I always make a decision before moving. After the first rumor was released that day, His Highness told the officials What, Wang Lu told the minister."

"...!" Li Pei scolded Wang Lu angrily in his heart, and hurriedly tried to make amends: "Leave the court affairs to me, you these few days... remember to see the auspicious day selected by Qin Tianjian tomorrow."

"Aren't August's words a little hasty?" Funanyin thought to herself that she had already read it, and asked with a seemingly unintentional expression on her face.

Li Pei was taken aback for a moment, and when he came to his senses, the eyes that looked at Fu Nanyin suddenly became tinged with brilliance.

"No rush, the sooner the better."

"……what?"

"I've been planning this big wedding for a long time, a whole year. You don't know, Ayin, this time I won't let you run away without a word. You can only marry me, Shili Hongzhuang... Come into my tent."

The last four characters fell, the silver hook in front of the couch fell, and the curtain poured down to cover the candlelight in the room.

……

Li Pei's words really came true. The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty didn't know what happened in Anpinghou's mansion overnight. They only saw that His Royal Highness couldn't sit still after hearing that Ning Shangshu didn't want to marry him. The identity of the Buddha who can only be seen once in the court meeting, these days, he is either sitting on the Yushitai or in the government office of Zhongshumen.

In particular, Yushitai suffered the most, and the prince stayed there for four or five days.

He went but didn't do anything, just sat on the main seat in the hall and watched the people work quietly, sometimes he carried a scroll in his hand from morning to night, and sometimes he asked the servants of Daming Palace to bring the sage's notes for him to comment on. Memorials were approved from early to late.Even if he didn't say anything to the people below him for a whole day, it was the energy of being silent and doing nothing that was the most terrifying.Everyone was worried, they didn't know where they offended His Highness the Crown Prince, they didn't dare to ask if they did something bad, they were very uncomfortable.

In the end, a young censor who had just been transferred couldn't bear it any longer. Facing the murderous eyes of his superiors crazily suggesting that he shut up, he asked tremblingly, "Your Highness has been here for a few days, what's the business?" Your orders?"

At that time, Li Pei was looking through the house under his name with great interest, planning where he and A Yin would go for a while after the wedding, and there was a bit of a smile on his mouth.Hearing that the usually noisy and quiet Yushitai finally made some movement, he raised his head in a leisurely manner, and said with a smile:

"There is no official order."

"It's just about personal matters. You all know that Gu and Ning Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites are getting married. This kind of love between monarchs and ministers is really fragile and difficult. I feel cherished by Gu. So I also want to hear some blunt words from those who have been here for a few days. The outspoken censors..."

He set his eyes on Qin Xianglian who shrank his head aside,

"It's just a heartfelt wedding blessing."
