Wear it to a club in another world

Gu Daoxin began to relax. Anyway, the affairs of the court have come to an end, so he can prepare for a little rest. He has worked hard day and night for the past half a year, and his body is a little bit unbearable. If Xianzhang insisted on exercising every day, his body would not Certainly not.

Compared with Gu Daoxin's leisurely mind, Lu Yihong and Lu Yijing's side is getting more and more miserable day by day.

The power of the two in the court has been almost wiped out by Gu Daoxin, but in just half a year, Gu Daoxin disintegrated the strength they had built up with great difficulty over the years.What they couldn't understand the most was that the father really had the heart of Gu Dao.

The relationship above the court is intricate and complicated. For some high-ranking officials and royal family members, it will often affect the whole body. Even if it is really necessary to clean up, it must be done slowly.Gu Dao has a good heart, simple and rude, and doesn't care about these at all.

However, Gu Daoxin is indeed smart. When he was handling an official, if he was implicated, he would temporarily keep some evidence, pretend to cut off the relationship between the official being handled and the higher-ups, and pretend to be willing to turn a blind eye and close one eye, so as not to The people above would make trouble for him in order to protect themselves, so they first eliminated officials at the same level or lower levels cleanly and crisply.When the case is cleared up and ready to go up, well, the previous evidence will be useful again.

An upright Shangshu Zuocheng is not scary, but a Shangshu Zuocheng who is upright, smart, flexible, and good at speculating and guiding His Majesty's thoughts is scary!

Without the equal share of power in the court, Lu Yihong showed a disadvantage because he did not have the emperor's favor.In a short period of time, it is already impossible for him to re-cultivate his own power and inject it into the Six Departments. The current Six Departments are as solid as gold, and they can't open a corner.

Lu Yihong was unwilling to be reconciled to ruining his hard work for so many years, and was unwilling to miss the throne from now on. Right now, he has only one way - to get married and get the support of a powerful foreign family.

If you want to use your own marriage to increase the bargaining chip for winning the heir, if you sacrifice for this, it is impossible to just marry the daughter of an ordinary courtier, at least it must be from a noble family.

But Lu Yihong chose to choose, and there was no particularly suitable one.

After all, it was a lifelong event, Lu Yihong thought about it, and decided to go to the palace and ask his mother and concubine for her opinion.

Lu Yihong's mother and concubine is Concubine Jin, who was born in Gao's family, the governor of the south of the Yangtze River.From a long time ago, her mother's family was considered prominent, otherwise she would not have become the respected concubine as soon as she married into the palace.It's just that after the emperor ascended the throne, he was afraid of the Gao family and hated Concubine Jin for giving birth to the eldest son before his Queen Bai Yueguang, so he kept suppressing the Gao family.

No matter how powerful the aristocratic family is, it is impossible for them to last long in the face of the emperor's suppression. In the end, the Gao family became a second-rate family.

Without the support of her mother's family, Concubine Jin's not-so-good situation in the palace became even more difficult.

But fortunately Concubine Jin has a calm temperament, she doesn't fight or grab, the queen used to stab her often, and she didn't react at all, you can just rub it round and flat, it's meaningless to punch cotton, and as time goes by, the queen doesn't care about her anymore.

And in the past two years, the emperor would go to see Concubine Jin because of Lu Yihong. Often when Lu Yihong performed well, he would sit in Concubine Jin's palace for a while.After so many years, the previous resentment towards Concubine Jin has subsided, and because of the Gao family, the emperor felt ashamed of Concubine Jin and took good care of her, and Concubine Jin's life in the palace became a little easier.

Even the prince is inconvenient to enter the palace every day, it is not bad to see him three or five times a month.Every time Lu Yihong came over, Concubine Jin would personally cook a table of delicious dishes.The emperor has never had such treatment.

"Eat more of this chicken. I stewed it with goji berries and lotus seeds for an hour. It is very good for your health. Eat less ribs. I put too much sugar in it today. I will make it for you next time you come. And this... ..."

Concubine Jin usually does not speak for a whole day except for calling the palace servants. When Lu Yihong came, she could talk more than a month in a day.

Lu Yihong smiled, gently covered the mouth of the bowl, and stopped letting Concubine Jin keep putting vegetables into the bowl for him, "Mother, I'm not a child anymore, I'm here by myself."

Concubine Jin put down her chopsticks and looked at Lu Yihong disapprovingly, "With concubine mother, you will always be a child. I love my child, can't you? You can't come here a few times in a month, and you can't do without concubine mother's long-winded words. ?”

"Why? I know my mother loves me, but today I have business to tell my mother. Let's finish our meal quickly and talk about business."

"Then... well, eat quickly."

Concubine Jin looked at Lu Yihong who was eating vegetables with his head down, and began to add vegetables to her own bowl, her soft brows were full of worry.

In the past, Lu Yihong rarely talked to her about court affairs, but now he wants to take the initiative to talk to her.

Although Concubine Jin is in the harem, she also knows a little about the situation in the court, besides, Su Zhao often goes to the palace to talk with her, and will tell her about Lu Yihong.She knew that Lu Yihong's situation in the past six months was not good, and his power had been wiped out. She must have had no other way, so she came to tell her.

After finishing his lunch, Lu Yihong handed over the list he made a few days ago to Concubine Jin.

On the list is the information of the age-appropriate daughters of various famous families, their names, backgrounds, backgrounds, friendships, in-laws at home...all clearly explained.

"This is……"

Sitting next to Concubine Jin, Lu Yihong said solemnly: "My mother must also know about the situation of the minister. Without the power in the court, the minister is completely at a disadvantage. There is no way to compete with Lu Yijing for the throne. The only way is to get married. A foreign family that is strong enough to support the son. These are all screened by the son, and the financial conditions are not bad, but the son can't decide to pay attention for a while. Besides, this is a lifelong event, and I have to ask my mother's opinion. Ask your mother for some advice."

Concubine Jin flipped over, "Why is there no portrait?"

Lu Yihong was puzzled, "What do you want a portrait for?"

Concubine Jin put down the roster and looked at Lu Yihong helplessly, "Hong'er, you want to choose a wife, and you have to get to know the other person's appearance and character. It doesn't matter about character, but you can get a general idea from the background and friendship on the list. Let's judge, but you can't even have a portrait, and you don't know what it looks like, if your appearance is not dignified, wouldn't you be wronged?"

"Mother is worrying too much. I don't marry a wife for one person, but for the power of the family behind her. As for what this woman looks like and what her character is, I don't care. As long as the family behind her can serve my son, Even if she is blind and lame, her sons and ministers can marry her."

Seeing Lu Yihong say these words with a calm face, Concubine Jin felt as if she had been poked thousands of times in her heart, her lips trembled, and her eyes were filled with tears.

"It's all my fault. It's because I'm not capable as a mother. If I can get your father's favor like a queen, you don't have to..."

"Mother, don't blame yourself. I don't think there is anything wrong with this. Royal marriage is a kind of political means. I don't care. Mother should hurry up and help Erchen to see!"

Concubine Jin quickly wiped away her tears, picked up the list again and looked at it.

Many of these ladies from aristocratic families have passed through the palace. Concubine Jin still wanted to choose a good-looking one for her son, so she only looked at those famous daughters she had seen.

"Huh? Hong'er, this one is pretty good."

Lu Yihong poked his head over, and seeing his concubine mother pointing at Jin Xiangyu's name, Feng brows frowned unconsciously.

As soon as Concubine Jin saw Lu Yihong frowning, she asked, "What's the matter? Is this Miss Jin not good? I have seen the daughter of An Guogong. She is generous and beautiful, with outstanding temperament, and is proficient in everything At the queen's birthday banquet, she even came to talk to me specially. The concubine mother can tell that Miss Jin has a crush on you."

The corner of Lu Yihong's mouth twitched, "It's not that it's bad, I'm not familiar with her, I've only met her a few times, but...I can't say why, just seeing her, I feel irritable, disliked, and even... …inexplicably disgusting."

"How come? You said that you just met each other a few times."

"My son also finds it strange, but this feeling is very prominent." Lu Yihong frowned as he spoke, and looked away, as if he didn't want to look at the name twice, "Forget it, since mother also said she is good, That's her!"

"But didn't you say you hated her?"

"The son's likes and dislikes are not important. The important thing is that Jin Xiangyu is the granddaughter of An Guogong, and she has the best family background on the list, and since my mother said that she likes me, I don't think I need to spend much effort to pursue her. As long as If I show that I am interested in her, she will go to An Guogong and ask An Guogong to enter the palace to talk about this marriage with the emperor. As long as I want her to do it, she will do it, and she will definitely persuade An Guogong to support me .”

Concubine Jin nodded, this would indeed save a lot of trouble.His Majesty is partial to Lu Yijing now. If her son took the initiative to ask the emperor to marry An Guogong's granddaughter, His Majesty would definitely not agree, but if it was An Guogong himself, it would be difficult for the emperor to refuse.

"But Hong'er, you are about to marry a wife, how will Su Zhao plan to arrange it? I can see Su Zhao's affection for you, and you will not fail to see it when you get along with her day and night, right?"

"Su Zhao is still my son's counselor. Don't worry, mother, she is a sensible person and will not do anything foolish."

Most importantly, Su Zhao understands who is the person he really likes in his heart.

Concubine Jin nodded, "It's good that you know it well, but you still need to comfort Su Zhao more. Su Zhao has been by your side for so many years, and often goes to the palace to talk with me. She is a good girl, but she was not born in a princely family. , there is no match for your identity. When you marry the Miss Jin family in the future, you can take Su Zhao away for another two years! The youth of a woman's family is the shortest, and she will follow you without complaint or regret. By your side, you have to give her a name."

"Yes, mother, don't worry, my son will make arrangements."
