"Sister, why did you refuse?"
"Nothing but for the sake of family harmony for my Qi family!"
What's the reason?
After listening to the explanation, Yin Jun became even more confused.
He really couldn't figure out what the connection was between the two.
Yin Tao straightened her face and said: "Although my Qi family is not a prominent family, it is very harmonious. It is precisely because of this atmosphere that we have created a sense of warmth that is unique to 'family'. If I risk However, after accepting this canonization, the previous inherent harmony will be artificially broken, and this is what I don't want to see."
After a pause, she continued to explain in detail: "Although my husband cherishes me and loves me, I am very clear about my status. Mrs. Liu is his head wife and I am his concubine. It is very clear who is the elder and who is the younger. Suppose, I really received the title of Lady of this country, but Sister Liu is still the Lady of Imperial Order, how could this situation make her feel so embarrassed?"
Yin Tao can basically conclude that with Liu Quan's temperament, he will be very concerned about this matter.
Even if she doesn't say anything, she will secretly whisper in her heart, and this kind of discord is undoubtedly a kind of malicious destruction to the originally harmonious Qi family.
Being a feudal lady is a good thing, but if it comes at the expense of family harmony, it's not worth it.
My husband once said that if a family is harmonious, everything will be prosperous, and if people are diligent, everything will prosper. If you fail to do the above two points, it will only be a matter of time before you lose your fortune.
It was precisely based on the above considerations that Yin Tao flatly refused.
After hearing this, Yin Jun couldn't help but frown.
Anyone who works as a concubine is always looking forward to being promoted to a higher position one day. Why is it that when I get to my sister, I don't want to make progress?
Well, she must have been brainwashed by that villager, otherwise, how could she be so tolerant?
Alas, no matter what, I still have to go to the palace.
Yin Jun knew very well that he had no way to change anything his sister decided. Since he couldn't persuade her, there was no need to add to the dispute.
Besides, there was a special connection between him and Liu Quan. Even if he didn't seek something for her, he couldn't hurt her indirectly.
Otherwise, the villager will definitely fight against him.
In this way, Yin Jun went to the palace to make Xuan.
As for how to roll it out, it is naturally not difficult for an old politician like him.
Two days flew by like sand between fingers.
During this period, nothing major happened and everything seemed to be calm.
However, on the third day, there was a big excitement that attracted attention.
Is there any excitement?
Yes!
Today is not only the day when Qi Yu's family, Rong Mu Sheng'en, and his wife and concubines were granted the title of Madame, but it is also the day when Liang Kesheng, the son of Liang Yingzhong, the chief minister of the cabinet, was buried.
Let’s talk about it one by one first.
Under Yin Jun's advice and Empress Su's remonstrance, the emperor seemed to have made a 'concession' and reluctantly agreed to the important decision of conferring Qi Yu's wife and concubine the same title as the state's wife.
The emperor felt that since he had already extended an olive branch, he didn't care about sending a few more foil leaves.
Only a fool would refuse to exchange two false titles of reputation for the core technology of a steam engine!
Therefore, after the emperor mumbled a few symbolic words, he half-rejected and half-dated Zhu.
However, the emperor prides himself on being fair, so how can he treat his ministers favorably?
In order to show that a bowl of water is balanced, the emperor also specially expressed his condolences for the loss of Liang Shoufu's son.
A pair of elegiac couplets given by the emperor, plus a coffin made of golden nan silk, a real and powerful imperial favor, seems to be able to earn a lot of beautiful reputation.
However, this wave of operations may seem innocuous, but in fact it is self-defeating.
The self-righteous emperor did not notice at all that the affairs of the Qi and Liang families coincided with each other on the same day.
Of course, this also has something to do with Liang Kesheng's failure to get married.
According to traditional customs, people like him who died unexpectedly while their parents were still alive should not be mourned in a big way.
In other words, it’s okay to just bury it with a ceremony.
Taking this as a guide, he will not be inactive for too long.
In fact, this is indeed the case.
After finding a suitable day on the old almanac, Liang Yingzhong decided to let his son rest in peace.
But who would have thought that the Qi and Liang families would actually collide!
Look!
The Qi family's side is decorated with lanterns and colorful lights, and the gongs and drums are noisy; the Liang family's side is fluttering and the suonas are wailing.
This stark contrast made the people who were eating melons couldn't help but sigh: On both sides, the emperor's grace was enviable, jealous, and hateful, but the atmosphere was one of ice and fire.
Cough, spit!
ice
Can the Two Heavens of Fire still be used like this?
It's not over yet.
The proud Yin Tao also completely put down her burdens and deliberately performed a "crouching dragon to pay filial piety" to the Liang family's funeral.
She personally wrote an easy-to-understand condolence couplet and sent it to him. The letter read: Although your long-cherished wish has not been fulfilled, please rest in peace.
The long-cherished wish in this word is naturally a metaphor for the golden wedding granted by the emperor. Now it seems that it is no longer possible to realize it.
However, judging from the context of these words, it feels like the Liang family is trying to compete with the Qi family. No matter how you listen to it, you still feel like a toad wants to eat swan meat.
There is also the word "close your eyes", which may appear to be comforting on the surface, but is actually rubbing salt into the wound.
At this moment, Yin Tao basically has no so-called sympathy.
My own Xiaotong has suffered such great injustice. As her aunt, shouldn't she be able to do her best to regain some ground?
And now, is the opportunity.
You can almost imagine how disgusted Liang Yingzhong will be when this condolence couplet is sent over.
It can't be said that he fell directly into the manure pit. It was comparable to eating hundreds of blowflies.
Snapped! !
Liang Yingzhong, whose face turned purple, angrily slapped the board of his son's coffin, his eyes full of murderous intent.
He even couldn't help but roared: How dare you!
The above scene was all seen by the new internal guard commander Wang Zhifan who was secretly observing, and he reported it to his master Queen Su in a timely manner.
This Wu champion was not able to become a high official because of his unsightly appearance.
Originally, the emperor wanted to leave him in that barbaric land to die of old age, but he never thought that he would be recommended by Empress Su as the candidate for the head of the internal security.
The reason she gave was that the royal guards only valued loyalty and not appearance. Otherwise, they would have deviated from the way of selecting talents.
Although people like Huang Fei and Leng Qing have extraordinary appearance, their loyalty is worrisome, so they are not advisable.
Loyalty or not is the first factor.
The emperor thought about it and found it reasonable, so he agreed.
As long as you know how to protect your dog loyally, why should you care about his appearance?
Nothing wrong.
In fact, the queen had her own selfish plans for making such arrangements.
