"My child Qi Liang, please see your father and your mother."
"No gifts."
"Okay, okay, excuse me now, forgive me now."
"Thank you dad, thank you mom."
Qi Liang straightened up and smiled softly at the two sisters Qi Ya and Qi Yun and nodded.
"Eldest sister, second sister, you are all here too."
Qi Ya smiled sweetly, nodded her head and pointed to the chair next to her.
"We have just arrived, please sit down quickly."
"Okay, okay, thank you, eldest sister."
"Husband, my sisters are polite."
"My children, brothers and sisters, meet your father."
"Okay, okay, there are no outsiders here, so there's no need to be polite."
"Thank you, husband."
"Thank you, daddy."
Qi Yun casually lifted the teapot on the table and poured Qi Liang a cup of tea with a smile.
"Brother, tea."
"Second sister, I can do it myself."
Qi Yun put the teapot in her hand back to its original place, looked at her younger brother Qi Liang curiously and asked softly: "Little brother, your elder brother asked you to come to the study for something?"
Qi Liang immediately swallowed the tea in his mouth, nodded happily, looked at his second sister Qi Yun and instinctively replied: "Yes, the eldest brother asked the younger brother to go to the study because he wanted me..."
Qi Liang didn't finish his sentence, his mind suddenly tightened, and the words in his mouth stopped abruptly.
Can't say, can't say.
What a risk, what a risk. I almost leaked the story.
I have to keep this matter a secret.
The eldest brother's intention to appoint Chengzhi as the crown prince was not officially confirmed for a day, so he kept it a secret for a day.
If I had to tell it, I could only tell it to my parents, second sister, and the three of them in private.
His parents are his nephew's biological grandfather and grandmother. After the two of them find out, they will not spread the word.
As for the second sister, let alone that.
As the mother of Chengzhi's child, she must be able to keep secrets better than anyone else.
I didn't dare to say it out loud because I was worried about my wives and children.
The ladies are fine. As long as I explain it carefully to their sisters, they will definitely not tell anyone about it.
But, my own children can’t.
Their brothers and sisters are still young and don't understand things. If the big talk spreads, it will be troublesome.
Moreover, it is still a big trouble.
The matter of crown prince and crown prince is too important, and there must not be a slight mistake.
Seeing Qi Liang's absent-minded look, Qi Yun waved her hand gently.
"Little brother."
"Little brother."
"Little brother!"
Qi Liang suddenly came back to his senses and looked up at Qi Yun.
"Ah? Ah! What happened to the second sister?"
When Qi Yun saw Qi Liang's reaction, she rolled her eyes angrily.
"Bad boy, what's wrong?
You continue to say, your elder brother came to you, what did he want you to do? "
Qi Liang straightened his expression and took a sip of tea happily.
"Hey, there's nothing wrong. My brother-in-law just asked me to go over and catch up on old times.
Then, I talked to my younger brother about the transfer.
Brother, haven't I already served as the governor of the two provinces in the Northland for three years? It's time for me to be transferred again. "
Qi Yun raised her eyebrows lightly, looked at Qi Liang curiously, and asked softly: "Then what did your elder brother say? Is he planning to transfer you anywhere? Is he going to transfer you back to the capital?"
As soon as Qi Yun finished speaking, Qi Run immediately echoed: "Yes, your eldest brother plans to transfer you to another position?
According to the imperial court's customization, you have been the governor of the two provinces in the North for three years, and now you should be transferred to the capital. "
The eyes of Qi Liang's wives and his children were also full of curiosity.
Qi Liang gently caressed the tea lid in the room, looked at his father Qi Run, and his second sister Qi Yun chuckled and shook their heads.
"Dad, second sister, brother-in-law, he didn't transfer me back to the capital."
Qi Yun frowned, and a look of surprise flashed through her pretty eyes.
"What? No?"
The smile on Qi Run's face suddenly froze, and he frowned involuntarily.
"What? No? Why, how could this happen?
The second-rank official in the feudal territory is already the highest. If not transferred to the court, where else can he be transferred?
Could it be, is it to be balanced?
However, my father just heard from Xiuxiu and the other sisters that your political achievements in the past three years have been very good, right? "
Mrs. Qi also frowned, but he didn't say anything.
Qi Liang looked at the complicated and confused expressions of his father, mother, eldest sister and second sister, and gently placed the tea cup in his hand.
"Father, mother, eldest sister, second sister, and brother-in-law, although they didn't transfer me to the capital as an official, they promoted me."
"Huh? Got promoted?"
"What? Your brother-in-law gave you a promotion?"
"No, my child, you are almost making me a father.
Not to mention that your brother-in-law did not transfer you back to the capital to serve. Even if he transferred you back to the capital to serve, according to the imperial court's customs, when a feudal official comes to the capital to serve as an official, he will still have to be reduced by one or two levels.
In this case, how can you still get promoted after all this? "
Mrs. Qi immediately stood up and brought the pot to give Qi Liang a cup of tea.
"Liang'er, stop being so pretentious, what is going on?"
Qi Liang picked up the teacup, looked at Mrs. Qi and said thank you.
"Thank you, mother."
"You brat, let's talk about what's going on first, and then we'll drink tea."
Qi Liang first looked back at the situation outside the door, and then looked left and right at his children who were eating pastries and nuts.
"Dad, my brother-in-law gave my child an official position as Minister of the Ministry of War."
"What? Your brother-in-law gave you the position of Minister of the Ministry of War?"
"Yeah! That's right."
Qi Run pondered thoughtfully for a moment, then sat up straight and his pupils tightened a few times.
“Take the same title as the Minister of the Ministry of War, and the same as the Minister of the Ministry of War.
Could it be...could it be..."
Seeing her master's startled reaction, Mrs. Qi frowned slightly and turned to look at her second daughter Qi Yun, who was also frowning and thinking to herself.
"Yun'er."
"Hey, mother? What's wrong?"
"Yun'er, does the position of Minister of the Ministry of War come from the rank of the first-grade courtyard?"
Qi Yun turned her eyes and glanced at her younger brother Qi Liang, then nodded lightly at her mother.
"Mother, you are right, you are from the first rank official position."
"From a first-grade officer, that's really a promotion."
"father."
"Well, you say."
"In addition, my brother-in-law also offered me the position of Governor of Pingzhou."
"The Governor of Pingzhou?"
"That's right, the Governor of Pingzhou."
"Pingzhou, Pingzhou." Qi Run murmured softly, stroking his gray beard. He quickly looked up at his son Qi Liang and asked, "Is it Daizhou, the Pingzhou Mansion next to Songzhou?"
"It's the capital of this state."
"Pingzhou Prefecture, that is where the Futu Army, one of the six guards of the New Army, and the Shapolang, one of the twelve guards of the Beifu, are stationed.
Although the two elite troops of the Buddha Army and Sha Po Lang have already mobilized half of their troops, they followed the two princes Zhang Kuang and Yong'an Nangong Ye to conquer the foreign barbarians.
However, there are still 40,000 elite soldiers stationed in Pingzhou Mansion. "
"Good boy."
"The baby is here, dad?"
"Are we still going to control all military and political affairs?"
"Exactly, control all military and political affairs."
The governor of the three prefectures, led by the Minister of the Ministry of War.
"As expected...as expected..."
At this moment, Qi Run finally understood why his son suddenly stopped in the middle of what he said just now.
There are some things that really cannot be said now.
Qi Run looked at Qi Liang, then at his two daughters, and his face suddenly became excited.
Mrs. Qi frowned slightly when she saw Qi Run's expression change.
"Master, are you okay?"
Qi Run turned to look at Mrs. Qi and waved her hands happily.
"Madam, I'm fine, I'm fine."
"As long as it's okay, it's okay, sir, is Liang'er's current situation good or bad?"
Qi Run gently stroked his beard and happily glanced at the grandchildren and granddaughters around him.
"Hehehe, neither good nor bad."
Qi Run's answer was very ambiguous.
There are some things that my son can’t say, and I can’t say them either.
Regarding her master's ambiguous answer, Mrs. Qi rolled her eyes angrily.
"Ah? Good is good, bad is bad. What do you mean by neither good nor bad?"
"Madam."
"Hey, what's wrong?"
"I'm happy today. Go and arrange some food and drinks right away. I want to have a few drinks with Liang'er."
"Didn't you just say that you planned to take a rest early?"
"I suddenly want to drink again, please go and make arrangements."
"Okay, I'll go right away."
Qi Ya immediately stood up, looked at Mrs. Qi and said sweetly with a smile: "Mother, my child will go with you."
"Okay, okay, let's go together."
…
March 18th.
Good luck, suitable for getting married and breaking ground.
The scene one day ago, March 16th.
Today, it happened again.
The only difference is that the atmosphere today is a bit more lively than the atmosphere on March 16th.
After all, today is a great day for the two princes to get married together.
Although one is marrying the main concubine and the other is marrying the side concubine, there are some differences in etiquette.
However, when the atmosphere is heightened, those slight differences become unimportant.
On this day of double happiness, even Her Royal Highness Liu Yiyi, who was supposed to come back three days later, had to come back one day early.
On the square in the palace.
Brothers Liu Chengzhi and Liu Chengqian, wearing bright red wedding clothes, got off their horses one after another.
After the two brothers looked at each other with smiles on their faces, they walked hand in hand towards the sedan chair behind them.
When Liu Song saw this, he immediately shouted at the top of his voice.
"The bride gets off the sedan, music is played, and fireworks are set off."
Brothers Xiao Wu, Xiao Liu and others heard Liu Song's shouts and quickly counted in both directions.
Amidst the crackling of firecrackers, brothers Liu Chengzhi and Liu Chengqian invited their brides out of the sedan chair.
"Ning Ning, we're here, it's time to get off the sedan."
"Well, here we come."
"Tong'er, it's time to get off the sedan chair."
"Hey, here we go."
Sisters Cai Ningning and Zhou Tonger responded one after another, and walked out of the sedan chair with the support of their personal maids.
After the two sisters' personal maids helped their young lady out of the sedan chair, they immediately took the bright red wedding cloth from their young lady's hand and handed it to the hands of Liu Chengzhi and Liu Chengqian brothers.
"Your Highness, the Second Prince, please."
"Your Highness, Third Prince, please."
Liu Chengzhi had already been married once. He looked calm and took the wedding cloth from the little maid's hand with a calm smile.
Compared with his second brother Liu Chengzhi's calm and calm appearance, Liu Chengqian's reaction was much more nervous.
"Okay, okay."
When Liu Song saw the situation of the Liu Chengzhi brothers, he looked at Young Master Liu happily.
"Master."
Liu Mingzhi looked around at the group of ladies on both sides and nodded happily.
"Um."
"The bride gets off the sedan chair and the wedding ceremony begins."
Liu Chengzhi coughed lightly and looked at Cai Ningning, who was wearing a dragon and phoenix hijab, with a faint smile.
"Ning Ning, watch your steps."
"yes."
Liu Chengqian clenched his hands tightly and looked at Zhou Tong'er nervously.
"Tong'er, Tong'er, let's go."
"OK."
Brothers Liu Chengzhi and Liu Chengqian led their respective brides slowly to stop in front of Liu Dashao and his wife and others.
Young Master Liu put down the tea cup in his hand and straightened his sitting posture with a smile.
Qi Yun, the third princess, Qinglian, sister Wenren Yunshu and others also straightened their sitting postures with smiles on their faces.
Liu Song took a few steps forward, looked at the two couples in front of him, and shouted again at the top of his voice.
"Worship heaven and earth."
The newlyweds Liu Chengzhi, Cai Ningning, Liu Chengqian, and Zhou Tonger immediately turned around and bowed in the direction of the palace gate.
"Two bows to Gaotang."
The two newlyweds turned around and bowed to Young Master Liu, Qi Yun, the third princess and his wife.
"Husband and wife bow to each other."
The two newlyweds turned sideways and bowed neatly.
"The ceremony is completed and sent to the bridal chamber."
As soon as Liu Song finished speaking, Liu Chengfeng, Song Yang, Liu Zhenghao, Liu Zhengran... brothers and others immediately surrounded Liu Chengzhi and Liu Chengqian.
"Second brother, third brother, congratulations."
"Second cousin, third cousin, congratulations, congratulations."
"Brothers, don't just congratulate, drink first."
Qi Yun coughed lightly, turned around and Yue'er nodded.
Yu'er received the signal from her young lady and immediately led a group of little maids behind her towards Cai Ningning and Zhou Tong'er sisters.
Soon, the two sisters walked towards the harem under the guidance of Yu'er and others.
"I congratulate His Highness the Second Prince on his happy wedding and a thousand years of life."
"We congratulate His Royal Highness the Second Prince on his happy marriage. His Royal Highness the Third Prince may live a thousand years, a thousand years."
"Thank you, thank you very much. My lords and guests, please take your seats."
"Please take a seat, please take a seat."
"Thank you, Your Highnesses."
The sun sets in the west, and the banquet ends.
Young Master Liu, Qi Yun, the third princess, Ling Weier and the others rushed out of the palace talking and laughing.
Outside the palace gate, Young Master Liu stopped and stood, gently shaking the jade fan in his hand.
He first looked back at the palace behind him, and then looked at the sunset in the sky.
Things at home are done.
Now, it's time to get busy with things outside.
