Lan Ke Qi Yuan Chapter 422: Yin Qing was urged to marry
"Third Young Master..."
Ji Yuan looked at the backs of Yin Zhaoxian, Yin Qing and others hurriedly leaving, and murmured to himself. Thinking back, the first time he heard this title was outside Gyeonggi Prefecture, on the other side of the Tongtian River at Zhuangyuan Ferry. superior.
"This emperor does have some feelings!"
……
At the front gate of Yin Mansion, Yin Zhaoxian took his wife and son, and took small steps with several servants to reach the gate of the manor. After tidying up their clothes, everyone went outside. The guards and carriages were there. He didn't move at all, and the people in the car didn't get out of the car either. They were waiting for Yin Zhao to come over first.
Yin Zhaoxian led his family out of the house quickly, walked down the steps, and then walked to the car. Everyone bowed and saluted together.
"Your Majesty, Yin Zhaoxian, brings all his family members to pay homage to Your Majesty!"
"Meet Your Majesty!"
A crowd behind them repeated it in unison.
At this time, the curtain on the carriage was opened again. The guards set up the step stools at the same time. A **** got out of the carriage first, and then helped the person who came out to get off. It was Yang, the current Emperor of Dazhen Hongwu. Hao.
"Everyone, please get up quickly and without courtesy!"
Emperor Hongwu took a few steps closer to Yin Zhaoxian and personally helped Yin Zhaoxian get up.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"Hahaha, Yin Aiqing, I came out of the palace today without making any publicity. I came to your house for a private visit. I also brought my family members over. Come down too!"
The first half of Emperor Hongwu's words was addressed to Yin Zhaoxian, and the second half was addressed to another carriage behind him. Then the curtain on that carriage was also opened from the inside, and two women came out one after another. Although he is a little older, he is graceful and luxurious, and a person who is young and beautiful is also elegant.
“I’ve seen Empress De and Princess Changping!”
Yin Zhaoxian and the family members behind him saluted respectfully again.
"You don't have to be polite. Today we and the emperor are coming to your house. We didn't disturb you, did we?"
Concubine De led the princess to the side of the emperor. She smiled brightly and asked Yin Zhaoxian and Yin's mother, especially the latter who was under imperial orders and would occasionally come to the palace to chat.
"Don't dare, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, and Your Highness the Princess. It's getting dark and it's freezing outside. Let's go into the house and warm up together. Yin has already ordered the cook to prepare. A sumptuous dinner."
No matter what the emperor came for, he could never stand outside and talk. Yin Zhaoxian invited the emperor to enter the palace, and before coming, he had already ordered the servants and the kitchen to make preparations.
"Okay, let's try the dishes at Yin Xiang's house today!"
"There happens to be a special sauce from my hometown in Ning'an County that I can give your Majesty a taste of. Your Majesty, please!"
Yin Zhaoxian stretched out his hand to invite them, and the crowd slowly entered the house. Yin Qing didn't say much during the whole process. He just walked beside his father and kept an eye on Yin Zhong. However, he found that Empress De and Princess Changping were talking to each other from time to time. Will look at him.
This made Yin Qing frown, and after thinking for a moment, he suddenly thought of a ridiculous possibility.
Several heaters have been set up in the living room of the Yin Mansion, and servants have prepared tea and cakes. A group of people came here through the door and corridor, and felt a burst of warmth as soon as they entered.
This large living room is filled with paintings and calligraphy. Most of the calligraphy was written by Yin Zhaoxian, while the paintings were mostly painted by Yin Qing. The Yin family and his son were well-known both inside and outside the court in this regard.
After a few people sat down, Emperor Hongwu's eyes basically lingered on the indoor calligraphy and paintings, and he admired sincerely after looking at them for a long time.
"It is said that Yin Aiqing is an honest official, but in fact you are not short of money at all. There are treasures everywhere in your home. Just the calligraphy and painting in the living room, I don’t know how many rich and powerful people have spent money to buy it but have no way!"
Yin Zhaoxian drank tea and smiled.
"Your Majesty is ridiculous, others are just flattering me, Yin Zhaoxian, because of my high position!"
"Xiang Yin is too modest. As a woman in the harem, I have heard this many times. I know that Xiang Yin is a master of calligraphy in the world, and that the master Yin Qing's wonderful paintings are also well-known. Every word and every painting is worth a thousand dollars." Ah, both of you, father and son, are talented!”
Concubine De was very good at talking, and she knew very well the status of Yin Zhaoxian in the emperor's heart. Emperor Hongwu once told her many things about Yin Zhaoxian between the pillows on the bedside, mostly with words of praise or even admiration.
Yin Zhaoxian will become the Crown Prince Tutor in the future. From another perspective, it can be said that if Yin Zhaoxian really thinks that any prince has no talent and virtue and is not worthy of his responsibilities, then no matter how much he likes that prince, he will not be the choice for the Crown Prince.
In addition, the common people in the market and even the civil and military officials have long heard a rumor that Yin Zhaoxian was a virtuous and virtuous scholar in the world, with a great sense of righteousness, who understood the world and eradicated evil spirits, just like the result of the Blood Silk Case.
To this day, people in Lishun Prefecture, Yunbo Prefecture and even the entire Wanzhou Prefecture pray for Yin Zhaoxian every year. There are also Yin Gong ancestral halls in many places, which are quite mysterious.
"Yes, Prime Minister Yin, everyone in the government and the public knows your talent and learning, and the same goes for Minister Yin's wonderful paintings."
Princess Changping agreed and looked at Yin Qing. The latter, who was sitting on the edge, just bowed his hands slightly in thanks and said nothing more.
"By the way, Yin Aiqing, Mr. Yin has passed his thirties, but he has not yet married a wife, but we have a marriage agreement?"
Yin Zhao first looked at Yin Qing who was drinking tea and replied.
"There is no engagement."
"Oh, then Minister Yin has a sweetheart?"
Emperor Hongwu asked Yin Qing this question, and the latter had no choice but to answer respectfully.
"Replying to Your Majesty, Yin Qing doesn't have a sweetheart, but he is busy with government affairs and has to find time to study and study, so he has no intention of focusing on romance."
Emperor Hongwu nodded.
"He is worthy of being the son of Prime Minister Yin, and he is also the pillar of the country. But when you get older, you still have to marry a wife. The Yin family's fragrance must be continued, right? What does Prime Minister Yin say?"
Yin Zhaoxian smiled and nodded in agreement.
"Your Majesty is right, Qing'er, it's time for you to get a wife."
Yin Qing has never married. On the one hand, it is because she is too busy and has too many things to take care of. On the other hand, there are also some scruples that prevent Yin Qing from considering marrying.
Firstly, because the Yin family's current position in the government and the opposition is very prominent but also a bit embarrassing. The foundation is actually insufficient and they cannot make a wrong step.
Secondly, the Yin family itself is also very special and may be exposed to some mysterious things. Choosing a daughter-in-law also requires extreme caution.
Others may not think so much, but Yin Qing thinks deeply. He knows that it is impossible for him to marry an ordinary woman now, and marrying a famous lady is equivalent to getting involved with the other family. What happened to the previous emperor made him He had to think twice.
But in today's situation, there was no way to escape, so Yin Qing could only smile but didn't answer anything.
Concubine De was whispering to Mother Yin, and then she winked at Mother Yin, who understood.
"Oh, by the way, Qing'er, this is the first time for Her Royal Highness Princess Changping to come to my Yin Mansion. Why don't you show her around this mansion?"
Yin Zhong muttered next to Yin Qing.
"What is there to see in the cold weather?"
Yin Qing had no choice but to look at Princess Changping.
"Your Highness, would you like to take a stroll?"
The latter nodded with a decent smile.
"Thank you for your help, Minister Yin. I am also very curious inside and outside the Yin Mansion."
Yin Qing couldn't shirk it after talking about this. After Princess Changping put on the fur cloak, she took her out.
Yin Zhong looked at his brother and then at the situation in the house, walked to Yin's mother and whispered.
"Mom, can you go with my brother?"
"What are you going to do? You are not allowed to go!"
Hearing Yin's mother's words, Yin Zhong frowned. His brother was gone. There were still emperors and concubines here, and the atmosphere was depressing and not fun.
"Then, I'll go find Mr. Ji..."
Muttering under his breath, Yin Zhong walked to Yin Zhaoxian in small steps and saluted respectfully to the emperor, concubine and his father in turn.
"Your Majesty, Mother, Father, Hu'er feels it's hot here and wants to go out for a walk."
"Hahaha, Hu'er's body is really good, but each of those princes can compare with Hu'er."
Emperor Hongwu also liked this child who was studying with the princes. Yin Zhaoxian gave a ridiculous compliment, then turned to Yin Zhongdao.
"What's the point of leaving, instead of causing trouble for your brother?"
"No way! I'm going to find Ji Xian..."
Yin Zhong, the kid, spoke quickly for a while, and then he lowered his voice halfway through his words. Yin Zhaoxian didn't feel anything strange, he shook his head and pushed his hands.
"Go ahead, go ahead."
The emperor didn't know Ji Yuan, so it was okay to treat him as an ordinary friend from his hometown. Yin Zhaoxian didn't know that Ji Yuan knew Yan Chang, because Yan Chang never talked about it outside. When he faced the late emperor, he gave him mooncakes. Sometimes he is just called "a fairy".

After Yin Zhong left excitedly, Emperor Hongwu and Yin Zhaoxian looked at each other and smiled, with a feeling of harmony between emperor and minister.
"Is there a guest at Yin Aiqing's house?"
"Your Majesty, there is indeed a guest here. He is a close friend of Yin's hometown in Ning'an County, and he was a neighbor from the beginning."
Best friend?
Emperor Hongwu became a little interested. The main thing today was to come here for his daughter Princess Changping. Since she had already gone out with Yin Qing, she naturally wanted to talk about whatever else she wanted.
"Yin Aiqing's best friend is also a scholar?"
Yin Zhao thought for a moment.
"I definitely read books, but I am not a scholar in the ordinary sense who studies hard in poverty for fame."
"Oh, if you can be friends with Yin Aiqing, you must be quite talented and learned?"
Yin Zhaoxian tasted the food after hearing it, and just smiled and said to the emperor.
"Mr. Ji's talent and learning are certainly good, but he has already said so beforehand and has no intention of becoming an official. Instead, he prefers to travel around the world, drink tea, listen to books, and play chess."
Emperor Hongwu was thoughtful and then spoke to Yin Zhaoxian.
"He is a leisurely and elegant man. When there is a banquet, please invite him to join us."
Yin Zhao was stunned for a moment.
"Well, my friend is a white man after all, and he doesn't like the etiquette of the powerful, for fear of offending the Holy One, or..."
"Hey, Yin Aiqing, don't you feel so petty when you are alone?"
Emperor Hongwu also smiled. God had created good conditions for him. He asked himself that he also wanted to be a wise king through the ages, so of course he would not mind such small details.
