Chapter 137
Zhao Jia wanted to marry a Korean princess. He had told Lu Buwei before that in order to stabilize the other party, he accepted the matter. Lu Buwei casually glanced at the Queen Mother Zhao Ji, a coldness flashed in his eyes.
This bitch really did everything she could to disgust him.
But Zhao Ji really thought that with the abolished prince of Zhao Guo, she could wrestle with Lu Buwei?
joke!
Lu Buwei's wrinkled old face was still calm, making it impossible to see his emotional changes at the moment. He met the eyes of the officials and said to Zhao Jia: "Does Chang Xinhou think the truth is reasonable? My Qin State You can propose a marriage for Chang Xinhou, or even hold a wedding, but Zhao Guozong can't just say nothing."
What does this old thing want?
Zhao Jia's eyes flickered slightly, and his heart tensed up. He felt that there was something in Lu Buwei's words, but at this moment, facing the gazes of the officials, he could only nod in response: "Xiangguo's words are reasonable, but has Xiangguo forgotten his situation? If I were favored in Zhao, how could I be a hostage in Qin?"
He chose to sell miserably, and took a step back to see what Lu Buwei wanted to do.
"One matter is another matter. No matter what, my son, the blood of the Zhao royal family is flowing in his body. As the eldest son of Zhao Guo, how can Zhao Guo not express your marriage, unless Zhao Guo wants to become the laughing stock of all countries. Otherwise, this gift will still be given.”
There was a gleam of light in Lu Buwei's eyes, and he said without haste.
Will Zhao Wangyan still care about his own reputation?
Zhao Jia doesn't think so. His cheap old man is extremely willful in doing things, and everything depends on his preferences. He doesn't care what other countries think. Unless it involves some strategic intentions, he wants Zhao Wangyan to do things for his dispensable son. He felt that the possibility of ceding the land was almost zero.
"Is it too early for Xiangguo to say these things? This relative hasn't mentioned it yet!"
Zhao Jia gave a wry smile, taking retreat as an advance, and said slowly: "If this marriage is really settled, it won't be too late to talk about it then."
Lu Buwei nodded, ignored Zhao Jia, and continued to rest his eyes with his eyes closed, as if he was just talking casually.
Following Lu Buwei's statement, the officials naturally watched from the sidelines, and no one wanted to offend the most powerful people in the court. After all, Qin Wang Yingzheng, Queen Mother Zhao Ji, and Prime Minister Lu Buwei all agreed, and it would be a bit useless for others to object. My eyesight is sharp.
Yingzheng glanced at the ministers, saw that there was no objection, and said indifferently: "This matter is settled like this. Chang Xinhou is ready for one or two days, and he can go to Korea to propose marriage in a few days!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty, Empress Dowager!"
Zhao Jia handed over his luggage to the two on the throne, and glanced at Lu Buwei at the same time. He was a little curious about what gift Lu Buwei wanted.
Is it Zhao's land?
It seems that only the land of Zhao State is worthy of Lu Buwei's covetousness, because Lu Buwei's fief is Luoyang, which belongs to the land of Hejian, and the land of Hejian borders Zhao and Yan. In recent years, Lu Buwei has continued to expand Qin State in Hejian. The land of the land, was it not for expanding one's own fiefdom.
Historically, Lu Buwei accepted ten cities in Yan State as private towns.
At that time, Qin General Jing Ji took advantage of Zhao to attack Yan and captured two cities of Yan State. In order to eliminate this disaster, Yan Wangxi took the method of alienating Qin and Zhao. Lu Buwei, the prime minister, took out the letter of the king of Yan, which said that he would dedicate the ten cities of Hejian in the state of Yan to him as a private town.
At that time, Yingzheng was still young, and Lu Buwei was in power. He notified Yingzheng of this matter, and then accepted the ten cities in the name of Yingzheng.
One operation makes everything reasonable, legal and compliant.
It can be said that Lu Buwei is the person with the most fiefdoms in Qin State at the moment. If there is no huge fiefdom as a foundation, how can Lu Buwei be able to support so many followers.
Now, Lu Buwei is undoubtedly eyeing the city and land of Zhao State in the land between the rivers!
Planning for your retirement?
Does Lu Buwei seem like the kind of person who would retreat bravely?
Not quite like it!
……
Lama Temple.
After Zhao Jiachao meeting, he was brought here by a servant.
Ying Zheng took out the document that had been prepared and handed it over, with a smile in his eyes, he said softly: "This is the document that the Queen Mother asked the widow to prepare for you. Whether you can go to Korea to propose marriage or not depends on yourself. , as far as I know, that Princess Honglian is deeply loved by the King of Han, and it may not be so easy for you to marry her."
In the era of the Warring States period, rituals and music collapsed, and there were not so many rules for marrying a wife, just like Ying Zheng, who married the princess of Chu State when he was 15 years old.
As the king of King Qin, it was easy for him to marry a wife, and even all countries sent princesses for Yingzheng to choose.
Right now, there are no fewer than five women in Yingzheng...
As for the original owner, his father doesn't care about him, his stepmother doesn't love him, and he is an honest type, so marrying a daughter-in-law is naturally a problem. If it is an ordinary concubine, it is easy, but the original owner is obviously not such a casual person, inheriting his mother's With more personality than Zhao Wangyan, the marriage has naturally been delayed until now.
As for the so-called Zhou etiquette... It depends on personal preference, follow it if you want to, and you can do it if you don't.
Marriage snatching is even very popular in this era.
The girl you fancy doesn't necessarily belong to you. If someone else has a crush on her, she might be snatched away by others.
Of course, this is limited to ordinary people.
For a son of a country like Zhao Jia, the marriage is either uncertain, and the decision must be irreversible. Moreover, when a noble woman marries a foreign country, there will be many Teng girls by her side, and those Teng girls are mostly sisters and nieces of the married woman. or handmaiden etc.
Therefore, many things that later generations cannot understand happened, such as nieces and aunts can marry the same monarch at the same time, and uncles can also take nieces as wives and concubines...
What love sister-in-law~
That's more normal operation.
"Thank you King Jia!"
Zhao Jia took the document and bowed to Ying Zheng.
Yingzheng raised his hand to help, with a smile on his face, and said slowly: "The Queen Mother, the person you really should thank, is just following the trend, but no matter whether this matter is successful or not, Chang Xinhou has to come back, otherwise, It will be difficult for widows."
At the end of the speech, Ying Zheng's face became a little dignified.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, Jia is not an ungrateful person. I will remember the kindness of the Empress Dowager, and I will repay it!"
Zhao Jia said in a serious voice with a serious face.
Yingzheng's face softened slightly, his eyes revealed a little light, and he said, "Marquis Changxin has gone to Korea this time, so why not get in touch with the Ninth Prince Han Fei, I am very interested in him."
"To tell you the truth, I am also very interested in him. This time I married Princess Honglian because of Han Fei. Your Majesty may not know that Princess Honglian and the ninth son Han Fei are siblings."
Zhao Jia laughed lightly when he heard this, and told a piece of news that Ying Zheng would know sooner or later.
Even if Zhao Jia doesn't talk about it now, Ying Zheng will know about it from other places after a while. Compared to Ying Zheng thinking more about it at that time, it's better to be more frank and admit his purpose directly.
Ying Zheng looked surprised, and looked at Zhao Jia curiously: "Why?"
"With a smart brother, my sister must not be too stupid."
Zhao Jia said with a smile.
Paused.
He continued: "Of course, I also want to use this to make friends with Han Fei. This man is very talented. If he can have such an uncle, he will not be bored."
Hearing this, Ying Zheng suddenly envied Zhao Jia's casualness. He pondered for a while, and said softly, "If you meet Han Fei, please greet him."
"promise!"
Zhao Jia clapped his hands in response.
Ying Zheng nodded and continued, "Before you go to Korea, don't forget to tell the Queen Mother."
"Getting ready to go."
