Chapter 840: Shun, Ke, Hong
Although Wei Youqing still asked people to continue to investigate, he did not mean to alarm Shen Chengwei. Seeing that this matter would not be fruitful for a while, he put the matter aside. He felt that Xuewa had always had the heart to get ahead, as long as she didn't do bad things, the situation in front of her was not necessarily a bad thing.
At the moment, Wei Youqing's most important thing is that Li Taoyao does not agree to Ruyi to go to Pearl Island to be a southerner saintess. She felt that Ruyi was a Han Chinese, and it was inevitable to abide by the rules of the local people when she went to Pearl Island to be a saint, first of all, the unique marriage customs of the saint were not tolerated by Li Taoyao.
Lee Seung-woo also didn't think that there must be a saint on the remote Pearl Island. The whole island of Pearl Island has the same rules as the mainland, and only some ancient tribes in the southern tip still revere the saint and retain their own customs.
Although Li Chengyu will not forcibly change these customs, but now that the saint has died of illness and has not left the next saint, do you know if God intends to change these old rules on the Pearl Island?
This delayed the annual sacrificial ceremony on Pearl Island. Previously, Pearl Island was in good order under the governance of local officials, but before the sacrifice ceremony, Wei Youqing was not in fashion to have a saint presiding, and this year Wei Youqing will obviously not be able to go back.
Everything can be changed at the southern tip of Pearl Island, but only the sacrificial ceremony cannot be interrupted. Wei Youqing wanted to go back to the south to preside over the sacrificial ceremony, and Li Chengyu resigned for their family of five in Dongming Palace.
Empress Zhang and Li Chengyu sat side by side on the main hall of Dongming Palace, and on both sides sat Li Chengyu's two sons and their mother.
The beaver and the little bean stand on the left and right of Li Chengyu, and judging from the color of the clothes, the status of the two of them is not bad at all.
In fact, it is true that the beaver is now the deputy eunuch, although he is half a level worse than Xiaodouzi, but his status in the Dongming Hall is not just an eunuch.
The situation of the Imperial Palace and the Chenwang Mansion is also completely different, and the people here are tolerant and even happy to see that His Majesty the Emperor has some small habits.
Li Chengyu is no longer worried about being criticized for this, fortunately, he is not an abusive person, and he has not made a lot of external favors to attract people's attention, as a fox beaver has a gentle and considerate temperament, and a charming face, which is very popular with Li Chengyu, and has become Li Chengyu's favorite.
Beaver is also a person who knows how to advance and retreat, he knows why Li Chengyu loves him, so he will never be pampered, and he is also polite to the harem concubines, and the concubines love him very much.
He also knows very well where the bottom line of Li Chengyu's favor is, and he never befriends ministers, let alone criticize the government.
For those around him who are also eunuchs, the snow beaver also abides by the etiquette that should be had. Although Xiaodouzi was bullied because he was not angry in his heart, the beaver has always let Xiaodouzi get along, and the two seem to be fine.
Only Wei Youqing understands that like He Jiming and others, the fox bloodline on the beaver has also awakened, and it is no longer the little drama that was only willing to be bullied by others before. However, there is no doubt that the beaver is the fox clan's own person.
Although Ruyi, who was dressed in a pale pink cotton coat, would have run away a long time ago, since the day he saw his father, as long as he had the opportunity, he would always lie in his father's arms.
Although Wei Youqing has a younger daughter Zhuzhu, for some reason she still prefers her eldest daughter Ruyi the most, even if she goes to the palace for a banquet, she still holds her daughter and meets the emperor and queen, and then sits on her seat with Ruyi.
The others in the hall didn't have anything, but Li Yuntao, the king of Shun, and Li Yunluo, the king of Ke, who were following their respective mothers, glanced at each other and turned to whisper.
The two little princes are both six years old, and Yun Tao is only one day older than Yun Tao, so he can be regarded as sitting on the throne of the eldest son of the emperor. It's just that although Li Chengyu's two sons were crowned princes at a young age, the title is really intriguing.
"Shun" is to obey the peace, and "Ke" is to abide by the duty. The two titles given by Li Chengyu to his two sons are an explanation to the people of the world. On the contrary, Li Yunyao, the son of Li Chenghe, although he doesn't know where he has gone now, he was named King Hong by Li Chengyu, and anyone with a discerning eye can understand His Majesty's intentions.
Li Yuntao, the king of Shun, tilted his head and looked at Ruyi in Wei Youqing's arms, shook his head disapprerovingly like a little adult and said, "You look very big, why do you want your father to hold you, don't you know how to walk?" ”
Wei Youqing's face faintly showed an imperceptible look of displeasure, which others didn't see, but was looked at by Zhang Guifei on the side. Knowing that this Marquis Wei didn't make sense at all, he smiled at Wei Youqing with a smile:
"Youqing, Ruyi is so beautiful, it's really cute, and it's very similar to her mother's parents."
Zhang Ruobing's words are obviously not only praising Ruyi's beauty, but also saying that Ruyi looks like a mother, so naturally she praised Li Taoyao together.
This made Wei Youqing's mood immediately brighten, and by the way, even Zhang Guifei's face, which had no relationship with the word "beautiful" since she was young, was much more pleasing to the eye in his eyes.
Li Taoyao on the side saw Wei Youqing's father and daughter's bullish seizure, and it was really rude to hold her daughter on the seat of the palace like this, not to mention that Li Chengyu and Empress Zhang were sitting in the center of the main hall.
Li Taoyao gently reproached Ruyi: "Ruyi, you are a sister, you must know how to be polite, and hurry up and salute with the noble concubine Niangniang and His Royal Highness King Shun." ”
Ruyi pursed her lips, dissatisfied with her mother's blame for herself, buried her little face deep in her father's arms, and refused to salute according to her mother's wishes.
Wei Youqing frowned when she saw Li Taoyao, but she couldn't bear to hurt her daughter's heart, and during the embarrassment, she only heard Li Chengyu on the main hall chuckle, beckoned to Ruyi, and called: "Ruyi, have you grown so big?" Come to me. ”
Wei Youqing was worried that Ruyi's stubbornness would hurt Li Chengyu's face, and he was about to persuade him, but who knew that Ruyi obediently let go of Wei Youqing, delicate like a fresh fruit, ran up the steps in the middle of the main hall of Dongming Palace, and walked directly to Li Chengyu.
Ruyi was just about to squat down and salute as indicated by the grandmother behind Queen Zhang, but was stopped by Li Chengyu with a smile. He beckoned, motioned for Ruyi to sit beside him, touched her smooth hair, and said to Wei Youqing with a smile:
"Youqing, Ruyi is becoming more and more like your original cow nature. It's just that you love her so much, how can you be willing to send her to Pearl Island by yourself? ”
Li Chengyu's words hit Li Taoyao's heart. She glanced at Wei Youqing with resentment, seeing that she was spoiled by Wei Youqing, how could she let her go to such a strange place?
She thought about it, and she didn't plan to discuss it with Wei Youqing, so she said resolutely: "Your Majesty, if Ruyi has to go to Pearl Island, if you can't say that you can't be a concubine, you have to stay on the island to take care of her, so that Lord Hou can rest assured." ”
