Marry a wife to be the emperor

Even if Pei Qinghong's birthday gift was not arranged with much fanfare, various people would send gifts to Pei's house every year.Especially this year, Pei Qinghong was not only promoted to the position of Shangshu, but also became a tutor. The emperor's reward alone, the congratulations of the courtiers were much more than in previous years.Not to mention those who have intersected with Pei's mansion, and some who want to gain relationships and give gifts.All kinds of gifts add up to fill a warehouse.

However, these gifts usually do not go directly to Pei Qinghong's hands. Instead, the servants will count the things, and then compile a gift list according to the status of the gift giver. Finally, the things will be put into the warehouse, and the list will be handed over to Pei Qinghong Look at it in your hand.In addition, every year on Pei Qinghong's birthday, he would go home on vacation, and only family members could give him gifts in front of Pei Qinghong.

This year's birthday banquet looks the same as in previous years, but in fact there are quite a lot of differences.Pei Qinghong is twenty-three this year. He was promoted to the Minister of the Ministry of Industry this year, and he is also a family member this year. Previously, Pei's family did not give him any more expensive gifts, just to stack several gifts together until Pei Qinghong's birthday. Give a big gift.

It was Ye Shi who made the first move. As the head mother who held the family's economic lifeline, she sold several shops and the land deeds of a house.

Mrs. Ye pushed the land deeds over, and Pei Qinglin, who was sitting opposite him, took a look, quite indifferently: "Mother gave me a shop again, what's the matter with that. No matter how big the house outside is, the second brother can't live in it." That."

Mrs. Ye was spinning the emerald bead string in her hand, and glanced at him lightly: "Kids, what do you know, what I give is naturally what Mu Zhi likes." Mother's nature is the clearest.

"Thank you, mother." Pei Qinghong only took one look, then accepted the gift from Mrs. Ye, smiling sincerely. Although Mrs. Ye's gifts were like houses and shops as usual, the nature of the shop was different. Not to mention that the shops in these areas can be said to be making money every day, and how much the houses are built to please him, just for what the things behind these shops can bring, this is a very expensive job that is very appetizing to him. birthday gift.

After Mrs. Ye finished delivering it, it was Zuo Prime Minister Pei Yan's turn. The things he gave to Pei Qinghong were not as valuable as Mrs. Ye's, but the value was in his heart, and of course the value was very high.Pei Qingyi, who didn't receive a high salary, gave it to his younger brother who spent a lot of effort to find the only copy of "Shanchuan Zhi".Princess Rongxin, as her sister-in-law, could have given Pei Qingyi a gift, but she also gave a pair of celebrity calligraphy and paintings separately, which are authentic works of calligraphers Pei Qinghong likes, and are antiques hundreds of years ago.

When all the presents in the room were finished, it was finally Pei Qinglin's turn, and he stood up abruptly, "My second brother must come to the yard to see this gift! This gift should have been given during the day, and parents have to let it go." I put it off until after dinner, but luckily it's not too late now."

Pei Qinglin grumbled and complained a few words, and said that his gift was not suitable for giving in the lobby, and insisted on demanding, so everyone in the Pei family had no choice but to leave the lobby and follow him to the courtyard that belonged to Pei Qinglin.At this time, the sun had sunk into the middle of the mountain, leaving half of his face exposed outside. The setting sun dyed half of the sky red, and the whole yard was still very bright.

The high-spirited young man blew a whistle towards the sky, and a medium-sized, ferocious bird flew over with flapping wings. Sharp and bright eyes stared at these people standing in the yard.

It has sharp and long wings, and a long but flexible tail. It flies over quickly. It has sharp beaks and claws. Unlike eagles, it has an extra tooth in its mouth that is suitable for shredding prey. It also has very beautiful dark patterns. This is obviously a majestic Saker.

Pei Qinglin solemnly handed the little silver whistle to Pei Qinghong: "Second brother, play it." Pei Qinghong took the whistle and blew a clear and short whistle, and soon felt that his right shoulder sank. The falcon spread its wings and flew to his shoulder.

He was wearing the kind of clothes that were not too thick. Although he felt his shoulders sinking, he didn't feel like he was being scratched by the sharp bird claws. In fact, his clothes were not scratched by the bird claws. The Saker was obviously It has been domesticated with great success.These days, it is very hard to find a majestic falcon, especially this kind of domesticated falcon without losing its wildness, it is even more rare treasure.

But this time it was Ye's turn to laugh at his third son: "What are you doing with this one? You will like such fierce things. You might as well give your brother a dead tiger. Anyway, the tiger's body is full of blood." It's a baby, and it's much better than a living falcon like you. If you send this, Muzhi will have to find someone to take care of it."

"Who says it's useless? Isn't it time for hunting? If I take it with me, I'm sure I'll hunt more prey than others. I've been training for a long time to raise such a baby. It's better than Mother, those shops you gave to my second brother are much better." Pei Qinglin has obviously reached the stage of rebellion recently, and dares to talk back to his parents.

"I like both Mother's gift and Xiaoqi's gift very much, so you don't have to argue." At times like this, Pei Qinghong must smooth things over.And because Pei Qinghong didn't have the leisure to raise a falcon, the burden of taking care of this living creature fell on the foreign slave who was responsible for helping Pei Qinglin train the falcon.As accessories of the falcon, they were also given to Pei Qinghong by Pei Qinglin.

As a new member of the Pei family, she is also the legitimate wife of the birthday star.Lan Min naturally gave Pei Qinghong a gift, but compared to other people in the rich and powerful Pei family, the gift he gave was really less polite and more affectionate.

After a circle of presents were delivered, the family almost dispersed, but before they dispersed, Mrs. Ye brought up an important event that seemed to have been forgotten by everyone: "The news has spread from the palace that the emperor has allowed Princess Yuyang Marriage with Xiao Qi, but the marriage will have to wait until half a year later."

The originally joyous scene suddenly fell silent, and Pei Qinglin, who was originally full of spring breeze, suddenly withered like an eggplant beaten by frost.Even Pei Yan gave Ye Shi a dissatisfied look: "Why are you talking about it all of a sudden?"

"It's not because it's rare for everyone to get together. It's rare for him to come back when Qingyi comes back. His book editing work will take at least two months. The news is so late, what should he do if he is bullied in the palace?" Among the three children, Mrs. Ye was most worried about the eldest.

After she became an adult, she was rarely reprimanded by mothers like this. When Ye Shi said this, Pei Qingyi's handsome face was a bit ashamed, and she pulled the absent-minded Chief Rongxin to retreat: "My son will pay attention, yes I'm not good, I made my mother worry so much."

Pei Qingyi has no real power in the court, and he can't help the Pei family too much. As long as nothing happens to him, he can be the greatest help to the Pei family.There is not much use for him staying here, if he knows more, it will be troublesome if he accidentally leaks his words, Ye Shi gave a few more words, then waved his hand and let him go.

Pei Qinglin was left behind as the person involved, and Pei Qinghong, as the future pillar of the Pei family, was naturally also left behind.He patted Lan Min's hand who was standing beside him: "Zijue take those presents back first, I won't stay here for long, I will go back before nightfall."

Lan Min nodded and wanted to go back, but because of Ye Shi's words, he stayed behind: "Zijue should stay too, after all, you married into the Pei family, that is the Pei family, you should learn more and watch more." Only then can we help Qinghong to grow the Pei family well."

After a few people sat down in front of a small table, Pei Qinglin spoke about his marriage: "If my parents really want me to marry that Princess Yuyang, it's okay, anyway, I will have a scientific examination soon, and I will still be the number one scholar in civil and military affairs." One test. If you want me to marry Princess Yuyang, then you can’t just rely on the Pei family to marry me. My parents won’t let me be a general because they are afraid that I will kill Pei if I go to the battlefield at a young age and don’t pay attention. I also know this. This time I promised to marry the princess peacefully, and my father and mother promised me to refer to the martial arts exam, and I still don’t do anything here.”

Pei Qinglin is also very aware of this point, no matter how good he is, if Pei Yan refuses to let him succeed, he may not even get the chance to win the martial arts exam, let alone the first prize in the martial arts exam.

Pei Yan and Mrs. Ye looked at each other, and finally sighed: "Qi Yanchang has grown up and has his own sense of proportion, and dad can't control you. I can agree to this condition, but you must not make trouble in marriage. What a moth!" That person's request was nothing more than the marriage of Pei Qinglin and Princess Yuyang, and he could let go of the matter of Wu Zhuangyuan.

"Don't worry, father and mother, I won't be willful enough to drag our entire Pei family into the water." If the emperor agrees, the marriage cannot be ruined casually. Pei Qinglin's young age does not mean that he is really ignorant.

Seeing Pei Qinghong sitting there, he gave him a small kick under the table: "Brother, you also promise that you will never do anything unnecessary in my martial arts exam!" He almost forgot , my elder brother's son is not light in the court.

Pei Qinghong glanced at the faces of Pei Yan and Ye Shi, sighed helplessly, and said with a bit of pampering in his words: "All right, all right, I promise, I will never interfere with your martial arts exam!" To be honest, he also He has never quite understood how cautious his parents are towards his younger brother. In his opinion, it is a good thing for Pei Qinglin to suffer a little.

With the guarantee from his brother and parents, Pei Qinglin was satisfied and happy. Pei Yan pulled Pei Qinghong to say some more private words, while Ye Shi pulled Lan Min together and talked with the other party: "The two of them If you have their words, our mothers have our words, so tell your mother, what do you think about what happened yesterday?"
