Chapter 56 Who is suitable to trick?
The women of the Wei family saw this and felt deeply aggrieved.
However, the Queen Mother was frightened. If he immediately stood up to claim the credit, not only would he not get any results, but he would be hated by the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother only cares about her own life and not about others.
After returning to the tent, the imperial physician came to treat him and the servant reported to the Chief Minister of Wei.
"Are you saying that Jiang Yuzhu is competing for credit?"
Prime Minister Wei touched his chin, not surprised at all.
The Jiang family takes advantage of every opportunity and has a long history of family learning. Otherwise, how could Jiang Fulu have climbed to such a high position? Isn't it all because of his eloquence, always trying to show off his achievements and flatter the emperor?
"Master, please help the young lady."
Shuxiang took a step forward and knelt down, saying, "The young lady had a chance to escape, but she risked everything for her marriage. If anything goes wrong..."
Wei Jing loves Xie Zhao so deeply that she is willing to sacrifice her life for him.
In front of the empress dowager, she said everything that should and shouldn't be said. What if Wei Jing couldn't marry into the Xie family and her reputation was ruined?
The young ladies from official families who I interacted with on a daily basis would talk about me behind my back and be sarcastic to my face.
Chief Minister Wei did not express his opinion immediately, but said: "Shuxiang, you get up first."
Xie Zhao was his most proud disciple. If he wanted to facilitate their marriage, he would have to put aside his old reputation and take advantage of his seniority to personally beg the emperor.
Prime Minister Wei was in a difficult situation. In fact, with Wei Jing's background, she was qualified to be the empress.
After thinking it over, Wei Shoufu went to see the emperor that night and said earnestly: "Your Majesty, my daughter is too stubborn. As a father, I am really helpless!"
After hearing this, Xiao She turned to persuade Xie Zhao, "Yuanhe, it's still okay for Miss Wei to marry you. Otherwise, it will ruin your reputation and you won't be able to justify it to Prime Minister Wei. Besides, Miss Wei is your junior sister. Don't you think you should give an explanation to your mentor?"
Xie Zhao refused coldly: "I don't think so."
If he had this idea, he would definitely agree happily, but the problem is that Xie Zhao didn't.
Jiang Yuzhu is enough for the harem. If there are too many women, it will be chaotic and difficult to manage due to jealousy.
"I have already given all my treasury to Yuzhu, and I have no money to support outsiders."
Xie Zhao's words were brief and to the point. Unless the emperor ignored the relationship between them and forced his way, Xie Zhao would refuse very firmly.
Xiao She's eyelids twitched, he pressed his eyelids and said, "People who don't know the inside story might think that you are a man of integrity and only love Jiang Yuzhu."
Such a promising man was ultimately delayed by an erroneous arranged marriage.
Xiao She sighed a few times, but Xie Zhao refuted in a rare way: "There was no delay."
Jiang Yuzhu is the woman who is most compatible with Xie Zhao in his heart, and she is not as bad as outsiders think.
Xiao She's eyes almost popped out, thinking that there was something wrong with his ears at such a young age: "Yuan He, are you serious?"
Xie Zhao nodded firmly: "I have worked like a slave for you, and was squeezed into staying up late every night to handle government affairs. Only Yuzhu did not cry or make a fuss, and she even understood my hard work very well."
If it were any other woman, Xie Zhao couldn't guarantee that she would understand him.
Xiao She was speechless and suspected that Xie Zhao was brainwashed by Jiang Yuzhu.
It was obviously Xie Zhao who worked hard, while Jiang Yuzhu was content to enjoy herself and reap the benefits!
Xiao She did not point it out, but said: "Yuanhe, it's fine if you don't want to marry Miss Wei, but I must comfort Prime Minister Wei."
Xiao She got himself into a big trouble, so Xie Zhao should at least compensate him a little.
Being an emperor may seem glorious, but in reality the court is turbulent, the power of the nobles is too great, and there are dark forces controlling things behind the scenes.
Xiao She survives in the cracks, walking on thin ice.
It’s hard to lead a team when people’s morale is low!
Xiao She kept complaining, and then stole a glance at Xie Zhao, hinting clearly: "My hair is falling out more and more."
Xie Zhao heard it and deliberately said, "Yuzhu opened a shop selling hair growth liquid, which has a good reputation. Why don't you go and patronize it, Your Majesty?"
Xiao She: “…”
He even said that he was not poisoned by Jiang Yuzhu, and he started to promote Jiang's shop and attract business for Jiang Yuzhu!
Xiao She didn't beat around the bush and said bluntly: "It's not impossible to help you turn down the marriage. A human skin mask will be a thank you gift."
Xie Zhao readily agreed: "Okay."
In order to facilitate movement, Xie Zhao hid two human skin masks.
The master who made it is no longer alive and the mask is out of print.
In the past, Xiao She had shamelessly begged several times, but Xie Zhao pretended not to understand and never responded.
This time, he spent a lot of money to avoid marrying Wei Jing.
Xiao She clapped his hands and laughed: "If you take money from others to help them get rid of disasters, then I will solve this trouble for you!"
Early the next morning, the Empress Dowager held a banquet to calm the young ladies of the official families. Jiang Yuzhu had the honor of sitting next to the Empress Dowager.
Last night, upon learning that Wei Jing was injured, the Queen Mother sent Bicui to visit her and brought some medicinal herbs.
This morning, Wei Jing attended the event despite injuries, despite all the obstacles, just to wait for the marriage proposal.
The Queen Mother glanced at Wei Jing's slightly pale face indifferently, feeling inexplicably unlucky.
Wei Jing was wandering around in front of her despite being ill. Was it to remind her to remember the credit for saving the emperor? Compared with Jiang Yuzhu who was silent, Wei Jing seemed too eager for quick success, and the queen mother looked a little gloomy.
As the banquet was coming to an end, the emperor came with a dozen officials to pay their respects.
"Mother, Miss Wei has done a great service in saving the emperor, and she deserves a generous reward. The Wei family has no shortage of gold and silver, so how about arranging a marriage for her?"
Xiao She took the initiative to mention it, and the Queen Mother hesitated and nodded.
Wei Jing couldn't hide her ecstasy, and her pale face instantly turned red.
This morning, Daddy sent someone to tell her that she would definitely get what she wanted.
Wei Jing held her breath, waiting for the imperial decree granting the marriage.
"Mother, Miss Wei is the daughter of Prime Minister Wei, and she must not be wronged."
Xiao She looked around, trying to figure out who to trick.
The Queen Mother and the new Emperor had the same opinion. She looked at Mrs. Jiang Chen and asked, "Is the second young master of the mansion not engaged yet?"
The young men of the officials in the capital were either already married or had no achievements yet, so there were very few who were worthy of Wei Jing.
Chen was startled and could only say vaguely, "My son is useless and indeed has not yet been engaged."
Jiang Yuzhu, who had been watching the show and not caring about it, suddenly became nervous. The Queen Mother chose the second brother? No!
Instead of cheating Jiang Huaiqing, it’s better to cheat Xie Zhao!
The Queen Mother fully agreed with Chen's modesty.
Thinking of arranging a marriage for Wei Jing, the Queen Mother said a few good words for Jiang Huaiqing: "Men are late bloomers. They will settle down after they get married and start a family."
Since Xie Zhao rejected Wei Jing for Jiang Yuzhu, it seems reasonable for him to marry Wei Jing into the Jiang family to make up for it.
Xiao She echoed, "Mother, you have a really good eye!"
Jiang Yuzhu: “…”
What to do? Once the Queen Mother has granted the marriage, it is impossible to break it up.
Wei Jing is a scheming and vicious person. If she marries into the Jiang family, she will become a troublemaker and won’t be able to get rid of her in the future.
Jiang Yuzhu was very nervous and pursed her lips to observe.
As long as the Queen Mother announced the marriage, she would stand up and help Xie Zhao get it.
At the very least, Wei Jing must be kept under our noses and within controllable range.
"That……"
The Queen Mother was very satisfied with the connection she had made.
