Everything happened for a reason. Zhao Qing did not criticize Wei Zhenhe and Wei Yuan harshly. He comforted them indifferently and let them sit down.
Zhao Ying was deposed and is now imprisoned in the palace. Although the queen's position is still there, it is almost like being relegated to the cold palace. She has been lingering on the bed for the past few months, and I am afraid that there will not be much time left.
The people around Zhao Qing became concubines, and the prince became Zhao Yi. For the Weiyang Hou Mansion, this result was a bit sad, but the whole palace banquet was still lively, and the others were just spectators, with nothing more than a few sighs.
Before the banquet started, Zhao Qingdan asked Gu Yanting how he felt about his wedding, and then he told Gu Yanting to remember the emperor's grace and serve the court.
In Zhao Qing's view, he exempted Gu Yanting and Song Wan from the crime of deceiving the emperor, and also granted them marriage, which gave them enough face and favors. Gu Yanting left his life on the battlefield to repay the favor. It¡¯s not an exaggeration.
Zhao Qing's tone was very condescending, and it was easy for people to feel disgusted and resentful. Song Wan tightened his handkerchief and worried that Gu Yanting would contradict him in public. Fortunately, Gu Yanting was very measured and just thanked him neither saltily nor lightly. I thanked him and didn¡¯t say much.
Zhao Qing was mentally and physically exhausted during this period, he had aged a lot, and his temper was not as explosive as before. Even if he heard that Gu Yanting's attitude was not very respectful, he did not hold on to this matter.
The banquet officially started soon. As usual, Zhao Qing issued an order to praise the courtiers who had made great achievements in political affairs this year. This year, from the seizure of the Weiyanghou Mansion at the beginning of the year, to the death of the Queen Mother, to the appointment of the crown prince, there was a lot of turmoil. There were too many things going on, and not many courtiers were qualified to be praised. However, everyone still congratulated those whose names were named in a lively manner.
No matter what, it is always a good thing to be able to live and celebrate the New Year safely.
After this session ended, Zhao Qing chatted with Wei Zhenxi again.
After thinking about it for a long time, it turned out that he wanted to arrange a marriage for Wei Heng, and it was in the name of happiness. After listening carefully, he turned out to be Ye Minglan.
Zhao Qing had also heard about the conflict between Ye Minglan and Song Qiuse before. Wei Yuan favored Song to win over them, so the relationship between the Wei family and the prime minister's house would naturally be somewhat alienated.
Zhao Qing originally wanted Ye Minglan to be Zhao Yi's concubine. Ye Minglan's reputation was ruined and she was no longer worthy of the position of concubine. Giving Wei Heng the title of eldest concubine, which sounds like barely enough, can be regarded as compensation.
But when they heard this, Wei Zhenhe and Ye Xiang were not happy.
With Wei Heng¡¯s body like this, if he wanted to get married, he would have done it long ago. Why would he use this method to harm others? Besides, with Ye Minglan¡¯s temper, how could he enter the gate of the Duke¡¯s Mansion?
Although Ye Xiang favored Ye Qingling, Ye Minglan also had his blood and bones in her body. How could he just watch her become a widow at such a young age?
Wei Zhenhe and Ye Tong stood up at the same time and walked to the center to ask Zhao Qing to take back his holy order. Before Zhao Qing could speak, Wei Yuan stood up again and said: "Your Majesty, my brother already has someone he likes, but it's just due to physical reasons. , I have always hidden it in my heart and never said it out."
Zhao Qing became interested and asked, "Whose girl is this girl that Brother Heng can like?"
Wei Yuan said loudly: "This is Ye Qingling, the direct daughter of the prime minister's house."
Zhao Qing wanted to give Ye Minglan to Wei Heng in order to use this opportunity to promote the two young masters of the prime minister's office in the future. In a few years, he would bring Ye Qingling into the palace to be Zhao Yi's concubine, so as to contain the government and the government. Can balance the relationship between the civil and military ministers of North Korea and China.
But Ye Qingling is different from Ye Minglan. Everyone in Zhaoling knows that Ye Xiang loves Ye Qingling, his legitimate daughter, because he feels guilty about his first wife. If Zhao Qing gives Ye Qingling to Wei Hengchongxi, he is poking at Ye Xiang's heart. Meat, can Ye Xiang agree?
Wei Yuan made it clear here that Wei Heng liked Ye Qingling, and it would be inappropriate for Zhao Qing to give Wei Heng someone else.
Zhao Qing frowned, and Concubine Shu calmed things down and said, "They are all good children. Your Majesty just wants them to start a family as soon as possible so that the Duke and Prime Minister can feel at ease. Since they have their own ideas, let them let nature take its course."
