Chapter 095
When Xie Dan asked for a meeting, Shu Ning was watching all the zodiac auspicious days this year with the Second Princess.
After hearing the palace servant's report, the second princess teased Shu Ning and said, "The Grand Tutor is anxious, and he must be urging you to marry soon."
Shu Ning glanced at the direction of Eunuch Tian, lowered her head and pretended to be shy, "If this is true, I will be even worse than seeing him. My sister will discuss with the Grand Tutor for me."
The second princess agreed happily, and the ninth sister had already revealed her feelings and said she wanted to get married last.
Bring the palace servants, the second princess came to see Xie Dan.
"My ninth sister is not feeling well today. The tutor tells me directly if you have anything to do, and I will tell her to Sister Ninth." The second princess smiled and said to Xie Dan.
Seeing a piece of red paper suspected to have a zodiac auspicious day on the table next to the second princess, Xie Dan said bluntly: "The princesses and princesses have been chosen. The Ministry of Rites has entrusted his ministers to come over and ask the emperor if there is any arrangement for the wedding dates of the princesses."
Although I was asking the emperor, the second princess and the ninth princess jointly acted as the young emperor to handle political affairs in the past two years, so there was nothing wrong with Xie Dan asking to meet the ninth princess.
The second princess looked at the Grand Tutor's attitude of doing business, smiled, and ordered someone to hand the red paper on the table to Xie Dan.
The little palace maid held up the red paper and walked over to Xie Dan.
Xie Dan unfolded and saw that the red paper listed all the auspicious days for the remaining eight months this year. However, including the Ninth Princess, there are still five princesses waiting to marry, but only one auspicious day for September is circled on the red paper.
Xie Dan looked at the second princess.
The second princess smiled and explained: "The princess's marriage should not be careless. It takes at least half a year to prepare. The fifth princess has already gotten married this year. So after discussing with the concubines, we decided to set the fourth princess' wedding date in September, and next year, the sixth princess and the seventh princess will choose auspicious days, and the eighth princess and the ninth princess will be the next year."
Xie Dan was about to speak, but the second princess looked at him apologetically: "When it comes to this, I feel wronged as a tutor. I have been waiting for my younger sister for so long, but who made my younger sister the youngest? If she crosses the older sister, I will marry first? Yu Jiu's sister, the tutor's reputation is not good, so I have to feel wronged as a tutor for two more years."
Xie Dan thought, according to this arrangement, the Ninth Princess' wedding date is very likely to be set at the end of the year after year. Now it is the beginning of the year, and he has to wait for more than two years, almost three years!
"Princess, the Sixth Princess is in his twenties this year. Although the princess marrying a minister, no matter how old it is, it is the honor of the minister. However, among the people, women of the two decades are over the age of youth, which is not beautiful. For the sake of the Sixth Princess's good marriage, I ask the princess to discuss it again with the concubines. The fourth princess' wedding date will be mentioned to June, and the sixth princess will be arranged to marry at the end of the year."
The second princess frowned and said, "Marrying three princesses in a row in a year is a short time, and it is easy to make mistakes."
Xie Dan lowered his eyes and said, "The fourth princess married for two times, and the etiquette can be simple, and the subjects should be able to understand it."
The second princess thought for a moment and said, "The Grand Tutor makes sense, then I will discuss with the concubines."
As a result of the negotiation, Xie Dan's opinion was adopted, and the Sixth Princess would be married by the end of the year.
When the sixth princesses get married and the new year is over, they have to arrange the wedding dates of the seventh, eighth and nineth princesses.
Xie Dan still wanted to marry three princesses a year, but the second princess no longer compromised. He argued: "The princess got married only on the sixth day of the twelfth lunar month in the first year. The seventh princess' wedding date was scheduled for the Dragon Boat Festival this year. The Ministry of Rites re-planned for half a year, and the eighth princess' wedding date was scheduled for November. I understand that the Grand Tutor is approaching thirty years old and are anxious to get married. But as the emperor's sister, the ninth sister, has the most noble status, and we cannot be wronged in the wedding preparations. At the same time, we have to avoid the scorching summer heat. Thank you, the Grand Tutor, wait. Next August, you will definitely marry the Ninth sister."
Xie Dan could no longer bargain.
When the wedding date of the Seventh Princess and the Eighth Princess is spread, the people have calculated that it will not be the turn of the Grand Tutor to marry the Ninth Princess this year!
The tutor is twenty-nine. It’s too late to get engaged to the ninth princess at the age of twenty-five. As a result, I waited again and again, and waited for five years!
But do the Taifu have any complaints? No, no matter the cold winter, heat, sunny, rain and snow, the Taifu has worked diligently to manage the government affairs for the young emperor. In recent years, the borders are stable and the people live and work in peace, and half of them are the Taifu’s contributions!
For a time, the Taifu Xie Dan had a better reputation among the people.
Xie Dan was not happy at all.
A good reputation is useful, but the longer you wait, the older the little emperor is, he is young but skilled in archery and horses, and his mind is precocious than the child of the same year. In addition, there are second princess, ninth princess, fourth princess, fourth princess, third princess, Guo Rong, Pingxi Marquis's Mansion and other powerful people who support it, the throne will only become more and more stable. At the same time, other princesses also spring up like mushrooms after a rain, and Xie Dan's control of the court becomes more and more difficult.
The best way Xie Dan could think of was to marry the Ninth Princess as soon as possible.
The Ninth Princess married him and could not live in the palace for a long time. The Ninth Princess was gone, and the Second Princess had no reason to stay in the palace. As soon as the two princesses left, the little emperor immediately became a lonely man, making it easier for him to control him. In addition, although the Ninth Princess was infatuated with him, she would not get married for a day, and there was a layer between the two. Only when they got married could he conquer the body and heart of the Ninth Princess at the same time and let her cooperate with all his decisions obediently.
But he still has to wait!
After waiting for so long, Xie Dan was really impatient.
Xie Dan's life is not easy, and his biggest enemy, the third prince-in-law Guo Rong, also has a problem.
Xie Dan is nearly thirty years old and has not married the Ninth Princess yet, while Guo Rong is nearly thirty years old and has not had a son or a daughter yet.
Guo Rong is a person who pays great attention to the inheritance of his offspring. He has a lot of skills to pass it on to his son, but he slept so frequently with the third princess and several concubines, and none of them had a good stomach. For this reason, Guo Rong asked the third princess to ask the famous doctor to take their pulse to see if there was something wrong with their physical condition.
The third princess is even more anxious than him. She has seen the imperial doctor for so many years and has also seen the famous doctor. Everyone says that she has no health problems.
She has no problem, and other concubines have no problem. Could it be that the problem lies with Guo Rong?
"Or why don't you take a look?" The third princess said to Guo Rong resentfully.
Guo Rong's face turned dark at that time.
Even though he was angry, Guo Rong was also wondering whether it was because Xie Dan was poisoned that time, and although he had no worries about his life, it affected his descendants?
Guo Rong went to see a famous doctor quietly. The famous doctor looked at the doctor and asked questions and found no results after a while. He said that his body was as strong as the bravest bull. It should be no problem, but perhaps the poisoning left some sequelae. For the sake of the present, he could only take more concubines and try more.
This is like fart, and it is useless.
Although Guo Rong did not go to Shu Ning to complain, Guo Rong had not given birth to a child for a long time, and Shu Ning also heard about it.
In the original work, Guo Rong only took about three years to eliminate Xie Dan, sleeping with nine princesses, and ascending the throne was the finale, and no princesses was mentioned. After all, "The First Prince Consort" is a stallion novel. A large number of boat dramas and plots each account for half of the weight. For men, having children becomes a burden, right? In addition, the nine princesses have to guard their filial piety, and driving the boat secretly is harmless, and planting children is a bad thing.
When the author writes books, readers can basically not consider children when watching the boat, and they don’t care too much about it. However, people with flesh and blood who really live in this world want to inherit the martial arts, or want to have a son to inherit the throne that has not yet been won, or use their son to consolidate men’s favor. In short, from Guo Rong to the third princess to the concubines of the Guo family, there is no one who doesn’t expect children.
Shu Ning silently sympathized with Guo Rong.
After thinking about it, it was not that Guo Rong and others had physical problems, but that Shura God did not set them for giving birth. This setting was not affected by the butterfly effect of Shu Ning's book.
While Guo Rong was working hard, good news came from the fourth princess, the fifth princess, the sixth princess and the seventh princess who had already gotten married, including the eighth princess who got married in November this year. After a year, the Lantern Festival was over, the eighth princess actually diagnosed her happiness.
The third princess was so jealous that she was about to cry.
Shuning is in the palace and is still in a mood to analyze this matter. It seems that as long as the princesses break away from their love with Guo Rong, they can return to their normal life after marriage.
After the analysis, Shu Ning began to worry about herself.
She and Xie Dan were given marriages by the late emperor, and they also wanted to use Xie Dan's political skills to balance Guo Rong's military power. Therefore, although Shu Ning tried to postpone the marriage date of the two, she never thought of breaking the engagement. She was going to marry Xie Dan in August this year. Shu Ning had no reason to refuse to live a married life with Xie Dan, but Shu Ning didn't want to have a child for Xie Dan!
In the original work, Xie Dan has been waiting for the Ninth Princess for a big plan and never took a concubine to sleep in the room, so his fertility is not mentioned at all. What if Xie Dan is talented and can Shu Ning be conceived a few months after marriage?
Just thinking about it, Shu Ning felt that her head was big.
Shuning talks to the second princess to discuss contraceptive methods. When she is in the palace, Xie Dan stares at everything she does. The second princess occasionally returns to Pingxi Hou Mansion to visit the old lady, and has connections in her hands to facilitate her work for Shuning.
The second princess looked at her ninth sister with complicated eyes: "The Grand Tutor Chong Ming, the situation is very different now. If you couple can be harmonious with the piano, he might give up that idea. Do you really don't want to try it? If you take the medicine and ruin your body, you will have a deep relationship with him in the future, and it will be too late to regret it."
Shu Ning smiled faintly, and the apricot eyes were filled with clear light: "Don't worry, sister, no matter what happens between me and him, I will not regret it."
Seeing that she was so firm, the second princess said, "Okay, sister will arrange it for you."
