The Legitimate Younger Sister Insists on Marriage Exchange, Sending Me to Become a Marquis Wife – Chapter 256

第256章 都似定北侯

“……是吗……”

秦鸢跨过他,睡到了内侧。

顾靖晖含混道:“鸢儿,我有些累了,本来有事要说,但怎么想不起来了。”

“想不起来了,就睡吧。”

秦鸢翻过身,同时也翻了个白眼。

顾靖晖道:“我再想想。”

秦鸢也不理他,反正左右今晚是想不起来的。

没多久,秦鸢就入睡了,昏沉之中,只觉身子被烘得很热,锢得很紧。

怎么也挣不开。

真要命。

……

顾老夫人却不曾睡,在灯下枯坐。

床头案上还摆放着顾六爷的那本新诗集。

容嬷嬷哄劝道:“为何这么晚了还不睡,难道是咱们六爷诗写的太好了,你看得舍不得睡?”

“嗐,你这老货又来逗我,老六能写出什么来,我还不清楚?纵然有所改观,那还是和举人们差的远了。”

“那发什么呆?”

“我瞧着老三和鸢儿在一处,那个般配哦,真是心里欢喜。又想着老六还比他小,都儿女成群了,他不知什么时候才能有个孩子。我就心里……我就睡不着了。”

容嬷嬷道:“侯爷安然回来了,好日子还在后面呢,他们两个好,孩子迟早都会有的,侯夫人年纪轻轻,才色双绝,又持家有方,擅长医香,这份福气,谁能比得上呢。”

顾老夫人长叹一声,“你说的是,儿孙自有儿孙福,我这操心也没什么用,就是忍不住。”

容嬷嬷道:“侯爷命格奇特,夫人也是人中龙凤,必是他命中注定的妻子,两人相合,侯爷定能突破命局所限……”

顾老夫人垂泪道:“这孩子长得那么好,过得又那么辛苦,要是……那也太可怜了。”

……

未央宫。

皇上还在秉烛批阅折子,殿内摆放的冰雕已化得只剩下了个基座,大太监虚眯着眼昏昏欲睡。

“老王,老王,”皇上轻咳数声。

大太监忙撩起眼皮,拂尘轻摆,堆上笑意,问:“皇上,这是要摆驾坤宁宫?”

“……也罢,过去看看。”

皇上起身,走了两步,问:“皇后不是今日要与太子选妃?”

“正是,”大太监笑道:“九公主、福芸公主和太子应当还都在坤宁宫陪着蔺皇后选看。”

“胡闹。”

皇上虽然斥责,面上却带着笑意。

大太监道:“两位公主虽然年幼,却也知关心兄长,蔺皇后被她们缠不过,就一起参详,只是太子心意不定,如今尚未选出。”

“那朕也去凑个热闹。”

大太监立即尖着嗓子对外喊道:“起驾。”

步辇到坤宁宫时,宫人们早已得信,蔺皇后携太子公主们前来相迎,皇上下了步辇,笑问:“你们这么晚还在坤宁宫做什么?”

福芸公主上前道:“父皇,我们在帮太子哥哥选妃。”

九公主也道:“太子哥哥迟迟不定,母后也选不出来了。”

蔺皇后严遵皇上躬行节俭的旨意,坤宁宫中上下都能省就省,院内只有昏黄的几盏宫灯。

太子头戴翼善冠,身穿盘领窄袖赤袍的太子常服,前后及两肩各有一尾金织盘龙,那玉白瘦削的面容,在灯光掩映下,更显病气,此刻站在一旁浅笑,“父皇别听她们乱讲,两个丫头只会在旁捣乱,也不知羞,哪有妹妹给哥哥挑嫂子的。”

皇上没理他们兄妹之间的官司,只轻拥蔺皇后往殿内走,笑问:“太子可是有了心仪之人?”

“禀皇上,太子像是个没嘴的葫芦,只说任凭母后安排,但好似哪一个都没入眼,臣妾也无法了,还是皇上替他拿主意吧。”

太子恭顺地跟在父母身后,轻笑道:“孩儿不过是想同父皇一般,寻个合眼缘的女子共度一生罢了。”

福芸公主的脸上闪过一丝不屑与愤恨,旋即消失不见,嬉笑道:“父皇别听太子哥哥说的好听,他要寻个绝色的。”

“绝色?”

皇上止住了脚步,看向了蔺皇后。

蔺皇后神色一片茫然。

太子忙轻叱道:“七妹妹莫要胡说。”

福芸公主一脸认真道:“母后殿中堆的那些册子,已囊括了京中所有适龄未嫁的贵女,有诗才过人的,有琴棋书画皆通的,有身世显赫的……甚至还有精通佛道之法的,众贵女各有所长,太子哥哥皆未瞧上,那自然是要寻个绝色了。”

九公主道:“为何不能是才色双绝?我的嫂子可不能是庸俗脂粉,日后要母仪天下,自然要好好挑选。”

福芸公主低垂眉眼,掩盖住眼中的异色。

蔺皇后笑道:“你们还是小孩子,不懂呢,选太子妃重在才干和品德,相貌和才华倒是其次了。”

到底还是没说身世不重要。

太子迟疑道:“太后……太后娘娘想让儿臣选宋家。”

皇上面上闪过恼怒,随后道:“太子如何想?”

太子笑道:“既然父皇来了,不如也参详一二。”

半个时辰之后,皇上看着案上堆着小山般的画轴,叹道:“此事……此事还是稍后再议罢。”

“夜已深了,父皇与母后早点安歇,孩儿们告退了。”

太子起身,带着妹妹们告退离开。

皇上轻叹:“他们,他们这是在欺辱朕的太子啊。”

蔺皇后无奈道:“太子病弱,三公只愿将家中庶女或旁族之女拿来充数,显见是担心太子……”

夫妻二人对望,神色郁郁。

实际上不仅是三公担心,他们也担心。

正因为如此,他们更想为太子选个母族强盛的妻子,能够护着太子的后人安稳长大,让太子在九泉之下也有后代祭祀血食。

可重臣们均不入围,便是身为皇上也毫无办法。

第二日。

皇上便在早朝上大发雷霆,将不少臣子们骂了个狗血淋头。

这还罢了,皇上说众人办事越发不力,定要重新对官员们进行京察。

顿时大臣们个个愁眉苦脸。

京察每三年或六年一次,对京官们进行考核,以往官员大族们彼此联络,互通声气,官官相护,不过是走个过场罢了。

皇上也并非不知。

如今突然如此,着实有些费人思量,不少人暗暗猜测,是不是皇上要借此改变朝局?

皇上恰好在这一日,看到了定北侯府递交上来的折子,阅后大喜,道:“若众臣子都似定北侯,则大兴江山永固矣。”
