"My minister has a daughter named Daiyu, who is even weaker than the minister. Now that the minister is gone, I don't care about anything else but miss her alone."
Emperor Zhengqing said: "I know, what do you want me to do? How about if I make her Princess Zhaoren and let me take care of her for you?"
Lin Ruhai was stunned.Even though he had already planned everything in his heart, he never expected that Emperor Zhengqing would respect him so much!
Conferring a woman of the opposite sex as a princess is even rarer than conferring a king of the opposite sex...
He could tell that Emperor Zhengqing was definitely not joking at this time.Moreover, Junwu joked that if he agreed, Daiyu would transform from an orphan who lost her mother and father to the honorable Princess Zhaoren...
But Lin Ruhai is Lin Ruhai, he has always decided to think rationally, knowing that because of Daiyu's fragility, being named a princess may not be a good thing for her.
Thinking of this, Lin Ruhai stood up and kowtowed in thanks: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your love... It's just that the little girl's life is weak, so it may not be a blessing for her.
However, I did have one embarrassing thing to ask His Majesty. Before that, I took the liberty to ask, how does Your Majesty plan to reward Jia Qing? "
Emperor Zhengqing's heart skipped a beat.
At this moment, Lin Ruhai mentioned Jia Qing, which made him realize something.But he still thought about Lin Ruhai's words as soon as possible.
Although it was presumptuous for a courtier to ask such a question, it was obvious that this matter was very important to Lin Ruhai, and he couldn't care less about it.
-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------
Emperor Zhengqing said: "I have seen the detailed battle report sent by Wang Ziteng, and it is no exaggeration to say that he should be the first to win this battle!
In addition, 100 million shi of grain was planned in advance for the imperial court, so that the imperial court calmly faced this chaos...
According to the principle of clear rewards and punishments, even if I completely return the title of his ancestors to him, it will be fine! "
Lin Ruhai was overjoyed.
It seems that Emperor Zhengqing recognized Jia Qing's contribution in his heart.
Jia Qingzu's title is the Duke of the State!It can almost be said to be the pinnacle of the title of a minister.
Emperor Zhengqing kept observing Lin Ruhai's expression, and seeing that he really cared, he didn't plan to hide it from him anymore. Anyway, he had really thought about this issue carefully recently.
"However, he has not yet been crowned, so it is not a good thing for him to be an extremely human minister. But he has made such great achievements. If I don't reward him heavily, won't the hearts of scholars in the world be chilled?
Therefore, when he returns to Beijing, I will make him the first-class Marquis of Ningguo.It's not that I deliberately suppressed it, but I actually left room for him to make progress in the future.However, I will compensate him with other things, so that he won't suffer. "
Emperor Zhengqing knew that Jia Qing was Lin Ruhai's adopted son, so he explained it so clearly.
Fenghou has been a difficult task since ancient times.But that is for ordinary people.
Jia Qing is the descendant of the founding hero!With such an identity, as long as he is promising, as long as he makes meritorious service, it is only reasonable to give back the title earned by his ancestors!
After all, the value of the founding title can be seen from the name.
Jia Qing: Jia Qing, the hereditary first-class supernatural general of Ningguo Duke's mansion!
The three characters "Ning Guogong" are all in front, which means to remind future generations not to forget the achievements of their ancestors
It seems really unreasonable for Jia Qing to make two great achievements in a row this time, but still suppress his family's title.
But Lin Ruhai secretly said in his heart: Great kindness!
An emperor who takes the initiative to leave you a way out means he really values you, which is more important than anything else.
Lin Ruhai felt more at ease.
After asking Emperor Zhengqing to retreat the others, Lin Ruhai said:
"Your Majesty is such a benevolent and righteous king to his subjects, I would like to thank Your Majesty in advance on behalf of Jia Qing.
I heard that the ancients said: Immediately become a marquis, three wives and four concubines!Since Jia Qing was conferred the title of Marquis by virtue of his military exploits this time, and his ministers have the cheek to do so, please imitate Tang Xuanzong's act of conferring rewards on Wang Mao Zhong, and grant him a wife, just like his first wife, and give the Marquis the same order as his wife! "
Lin Ruhai rallied and said.
At this time, it seemed that even his sickness had disappeared a lot.
"To whom?" Emperor Zhengqing had guessed what Lin Ruhai was thinking.
"It's the little girl, whose baby name is Daiyu."
Emperor Zhengqing suddenly stood up and said: "Why did Ruhai come here? If you are worried about your daughter's marriage, I can specially recruit talents from all over the world for her. Why do you have such thoughts?"
Lin Ruhai shook his head and said: "Your Majesty doesn't know, I also thought about choosing another husband for him. However, the little girl has a delicate heart, and she deeply admires the talent and character of her brother-in-law, and she has reached the point of being in a daze.
Her mother left early, leaving her as a poor orphan girl.I can't bear to force each other. If she has something good or bad, I will hardly see the clumsy thorns when I go to Jiuquan.
Therefore, after thinking so hard, I dared to ask Your Majesty to make an exception for my minister. I am really ashamed of Your Majesty for doing such a thing that violates the law. "
Da Chu practiced the system of monogamy and multiple concubines.Lin Ruhai's request was indeed to tell Emperor Zhengqing to know the law and break the law.
But Emperor Zhengqing obviously didn't think so, he didn't care about this at all, he just said: "Since this is the case, I will order him to withdraw from the marriage with Xue's family and let him marry Daiyu as his wife."
People are impulsive, and Emperor Zhengqing was no exception.Now he was deeply moved, because he didn't want Lin Ruhai to suffer even a little bit of grievance, and he forgot about Jia Qing's request to him.
"No, Your Majesty.
Weichen's son-in-law still knows that he is punctual on the surface, but he is the most resolute in his heart.The minister once tested him, whether he was willing to break the contract and marry another, but he firmly refused.
The reason why the minister is willing to marry his daughter to him is because he values love and righteousness, and he takes care of his daughter meticulously.In this way, even if the minister is gone, he can still take good care of the little girl, which is what the minister hopes.
If the minister begged His Majesty to force him to repent of the marriage today, even if he agreed, he would definitely feel resentful.If you marry a little girl in the future, you will also feel jealous. If you treat the little girl slowly, wouldn't it violate the original intention of the minister? "
"He dares!"
"It's the minister's slip of the tongue, just because the little girl is a sensitive and delicate person, I'm only afraid that she will destroy herself by seeking perfection."
Lin Ruhai's tone was sincere.
If it is possible, who is willing to let their daughter suffer such grievances?If Daiyu was a little bit stronger, a little more ruthless, and able to bear the coldness, even if he tried to make Jia Qing resent him, he would still be willing to take advantage of the opportunity to agree to Emperor Zhengqing's proposal.
However, he knew that Daiyu couldn't bear the anger...
He has done his best to plan for her the result she wants.Give her a righteous brother and husband who loves her and loves her.
He can no longer protect her, and he has no time to help her find a good husband.Instead of asking Mother Jia and others to help her choose a husband, why not hand her over to Jia Qing, who knows everything about her, so that he can leave with peace of mind.
Emperor Zhengqing was silent for a while, and then said: "It is his blessing that he is favored by Ruhai."
Lin Ruhai smiled and said, "It's also my merit."
Emperor Zhengqing stopped talking, he knew that Lin Ruhai's ability to do this was rooted in his liking for Jia Qing.Otherwise, no matter how high the title Jia Qing granted, Lin Ruhai would not be able to do so.Although he did this to help his daughter, it was an obstacle to the reputation of the Lin family...
Thinking of the Lin family, Emperor Zhengqing couldn't help but sigh again.
