Chapter 975: redemption
??Chapter 975 Atonement
??Xie Zhiqian left the house, and after the return ceremony, it will be the Chinese New Year soon.
??Xie Zhiwei rushed to ask Mrs. Cui to go to the Ming family to propose a marriage just a few years ago. The Empress Dowager made an order, and the Ministry of Rites arranged a small settlement. Xiao Wei's marriage was finally settled.
?? After the new year, Qin Tianjian selected a few days, and Xie Zhiwei sent people to send the days to the Gu family, and asked the Gu family to choose one.
Mrs. Gu chose the second day of March, and made a special trip to the palace, "The first one is still in the first month, and the new year is just over, so I'm afraid the family won't have time to prepare. The weather is fine on the second day of March, and it's not cold to wear a wedding dress." Not hot, just right."
?? One more day will be in May, the second day of March, not far or near, the Gu family is sensible.
??Xie Zhi smiled and said, "It's my wife who thinks about us. It's just past the new year. There are many things in the palace and the six yamen, and there are not enough people in the Ministry of Rites. I'm afraid we are too hasty."
??Xie Zhiwei asked if the eldest son of the Gu family would enter the arena this year?
?? In the spring of February, the Xie family has Xie Mingcheng to play.
?? "Last year, he didn't do very well in the exam. Originally, his father asked him to wait any longer, but this kid insisted on ending up. He said that he had waited for all these years. If he can pass high school, it will be double happiness!"
Xie Zhiwei knew that Gu Ji wanted to make Xiao Lingsu look good, so he smiled and said, "You're still young anyway, besides, our two families don't want that famous family, of course it's good to be in high school, if it's real soon It doesn't matter if you stumble before, just take the exam next year."
?? "That's not the way to say it!" Mrs. Gu felt relieved and asked, "I don't know if the wedding will be held in the Princess Mansion, or how to plan it. The Empress will make her order."
Xie Zhiwei said, "Princess Yuanjia and Princess Linghua have already set an example. The marriage in Nanzhang will follow the previous one. The princess mansion will be reserved first. Let's respect the ancient etiquette. The princess gets up from the palace and enters the gate of the Gu family. From now on, she will be the daughter-in-law of the Gu family, and follow the etiquette of the Gu family!"
?? Mrs. Gu was completely relieved, touched the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, knelt down and respectfully saluted Xie Zhiwei to thank her!
?? Years later, good news came from Xie's family, Xie Mingcheng High School, Gu Ji also got in.
??Xie Zhiwei was so happy that he called Lingsu over, told her the good news, and said, "I don't know how the palace exam is. If you pass it, I'll let your elder brother choose Gu Ji as the champion."
??Xie Mingcheng is still a little younger, not as good as the weak champion, otherwise Xie Zhiwei really wants the Xie family to be the champion.
??In the evening, when Xiao Xun came back, Xie Zhiwei asked how Xie Mingcheng's article was doing?
??Xiao Xun was funny, "Ordinary woman, if your husband becomes the emperor, wouldn't you be asking for a title for your natal family? You are so kind, you actually want to ask for a false name."
??Xie Zhi blushed slightly, "What do you want a title for? People may not remember it in the future, but if you write a good article, you want to be famous forever."
"I've read Mingcheng's article. It's quite stable and innovative. It's very good for him to do this at his age. Just look at how he is doing in the palace exam tomorrow. If he is good, let alone the top three, he must give it to the top three! Who made him my brother-in-law!"
??Xie Zhi smiled, Xiao Xun saw that she was so happy, and was moved for a moment, "You serve me well, tomorrow you will be infamy for the rest of your life, and I want to appoint him as the number one scholar, how about it?"
??Xie Zhiwei pinched him, "I don't want to be infamous for the rest of my life. With so many sons in the Xie family, are you afraid that there won't be a champion in the future?"
??Xiao Xun laughed, but finally made Xie Zhiwei quite upset.
??The next day, Donghuamen roll call.
??Du Gui ran back quickly, exulting, "Empress Empress, I'm so happy, my uncle has won Tanhua! The Xie family has another Tanhualang!"
?? "Really?" Xie Zhiwei couldn't be more excited, and the Xie family has another Tanhualang, which is more gratifying than being made a prince!
?? "How dare the slave lie to the empress? The slave waited at Donghua Gate for a long time, and listened with all his ears, and he heard it very clearly!"
?? "Reward! Take the silver from the inner treasury of the palace to reward!"
??All the people in the back hall of the Hall of Mental Cultivation were overjoyed, and they all came out to receive their thanks and congratulations to the Empress.
??The Xie family set up a running mat for three days, and the younger brothers in the back were also very nervous. The older brother in the front was so fierce that he would immediately end up Tanhualang. It would be a shame if they failed even a Jinshi exam.
?? Besides, there is still a saying now, some peers told Xie Mingxi, "It doesn't matter if you fail the exam, anyway, you will be the prince of the country in the future"
?? This aroused Xie Mingxi's spirit of not admitting defeat, and he worked hard, and this year he must pass the exam.
??Although Gu Ji didn't make it to the top list, he ranked 17th in the second list, and he was also admitted to the Shu Jishi exam, which is also a great joy.
On the second day of March, Xiao Lingsu came out of the pavilion, crying like a tearful person, and Xie Zhiwei couldn't help crying, but Xiao Xun couldn't stand it anymore and forced Xiao Wei to take Xiao Ling Su recited out of the palace gate.
??On March 18th, the empress dowager bestowed marriages on Xie Mingcheng and Gao Da girl, and the Xie family had a double happiness.
??On the sixth day of April, Xie Zhiying came out of the court, and Xie Zhiwei also added thick makeup, 10,000 taels of silver ticket, and went to the ceremony with her big belly.
??The queen empress came, and the emperor naturally followed. The Xie family was very lively, and several strands of Xie Tiao's hair turned black.
?? After returning to the palace, Xie Zhiwei took a good rest for a while.
?? News came from Zhejiang that Zheng Jingyan was hunted down in Zhejiang and almost lost his life. When the news came back, the court was shocked.
That night, Mu Jianfeng, the Commander of Jinyiwei, went to Zhejiang in person. From the chief envoy, to the inspector and then to the commander of the capital, all of them were locked up and brought into Beijing. From top to bottom, they went over and over again, involving 20 counties in 13 prefectures. , a total of more than one hundred officials.
?? In the second year of Zhaowei, such a big case came out at the beginning of the year, and the empress dowager was bedridden, so no one paid attention to it.
In Leshou Palace, King Xiang sat beside the empress dowager's bed, without looking at her face, "Since ancient times, my son has never seen any generation of empress dowagers with such long arms. There is someone who interferes in the government, but they are not as arrogant as you, in the future, in the history books, will you not be afraid of being scolded?"
??The empress dowager aged nearly twenty years overnight, she coughed non-stop, and a ball of blood fell on the pillow, scarlet, making people panic.
?? King Xiang glanced at it indifferently, but there was no wave in his eyes.
??The empress dowager sighed, "When I die, it will all belong to the national treasury. It can be regarded as... redemption!"
"Whether the redemption can be redeemed or not is not up to me. It depends on the literati. I am not the one who edits the history books. The empress empress almost lost her first child, and forced the emperor to accept the concubine, making a fuss." The harem is in turmoil, these are nothing, with so much money, maybe the Yin family will remember you well?"
??The empress dowager closed her eyes slowly, and two lines of tears fell down. I don't know if it was sadness or regret?
