Chapter 212 Nian Gengyao (5)
Chapter 212 Nian Gengyao (5)
Fortunately, Nian Shilan's love brain has not reached the hopeless late stage, otherwise Nian Gengyao's next plan is that if she continues to be obsessed, he will give her a bowl and let her beg for food on the street for a year to see if she can still bear it.
Fortunately, Nian Shilan did not give Nian Gengyao this opportunity. After eating wild vegetables at home every day for less than half a month, Nian Shilan, whose face turned green, ran to An Lingrong crying and said that she was wrong and that she would marry whoever her brother told her to marry. She could not endure the bitterness of love for a day.
"Wuwuwu~Sister-in-law, I really know I was wrong. Can you help me beg my brother for mercy? I really don't know I was wrong. I don't want to eat wild vegetables anymore. I want to eat crab meat cakes~"
Since Nian Shilan had given in, Nian Gengyao naturally chose to forgive her. After all, her purpose was not to deliberately abuse her sister. On the same day, she threw away all the green wild vegetables. After half a month, Nian Shilan finally ate her favorite crab meat crisps.
When she took the first bite, Nian Shilan was so happy that she almost cried.
As expected, people always realize how good something was only after they lose it. After this experience, Nian Shilan has gone from one extreme to another.
Nian Gengyao looked at his sister who always gave him problems with a headache: "You like the Seventeenth Master again? What's the reason?"
"Didn't my brother tell me not to be in love? I have finally figured it out. Marry a man, marry a man, and you will have clothes and food. If it's all about profit, who can compare to the prince of the royal family? The princes who should have been married have already been married, and the princes after the Seventeenth Master are not yet grown up. Besides, the Seventeenth Master's mother is the favorite concubine of the retired emperor. Now the retired emperor has woken up. Even if it's for the retired emperor to see, the one sitting on the dragon throne must be good to the Seventeenth Master.
The Seventeenth Master's mother, Concubine Shu, is of such a high status that I cannot even dream of marrying other princes of noble birth, but this one is worthy enough for me to marry as my principal wife.
And I also heard that the Seventeenth Master had not learned martial arts in recent years because the Emperor was seriously ill. I also secretly went to see that master in private. He looked gentle and refined. He definitely couldn't beat me.
Brother, I will definitely not be bullied if I marry him. From this point of view, I have both the inside and the outside. Prince Guo is younger and more handsome than Prince Yong. I can also become his principal wife if I marry him. It is a matter of all benefits and no harm. Do you think my analysis is correct?"
Nian Gengyao looked at his sister, who had been spoiled to the point of losing her brain, with a slightly complicated look.
Was his previous method so effective?
How long does it take to change a person's temperament into this state?
If this was what Nian Shilan really said, Nian Gengyao felt that he could even publish a book specifically for curing love-brain problems. He was so awesome!
After confirming again and again that Nian Shilan was serious, Nian Gengyao readily agreed to help him ask the emperor for this marriage.
What Nian Shilan said made sense, and after being inspired by Nian Shilan, Nian Gengyao came up with a new and good idea about where Kangxi should go.
The next day when he went to court, Nian Gengyao had a private conversation with Yinreng asking for a marriage between his sister and the Seventeenth Master.
Yinreng raised his eyebrows and said, "As far as I know, your sister was insisting on marrying the Fourth Prince a while ago. How come she suddenly wants to marry the Seventeenth Prince in such a short time?"
The influence of cartoons on people is profound. When Yinreng was a child watching "Big Ear Tutu", he probably thought it was cool that the brother Zhuangzhuang in the show always started his sentences with "As far as I know" with a cool expression. However, his brother Zhuangzhuang in real life, Yinzhi, has not yet learned this sentence, so he used this sentence as his catchphrase.
Nian Gengyao felt a pang of anger when he thought about the fact that he had gone from "as far as I know" to "as far as I know". Should he be glad that Yinreng didn't keep saying "I will definitely come back" as Gray Wolf said?
Ahem. Off topic.
Knowing that Yinreng had spies in every family, it would be impossible to hide the matter from him, so Nian Gengyao simply told the truth.
Also, because he was a veteran member of the prince's faction, although he had been hiding in the dark during the reign of Kangxi, and although no one else in the court knew about it except himself and Yinreng, as long as the emperor knew that he was his confidant, it would be enough.
Considering his current relationship with Yinreng and his main purpose of promoting this marriage, there is nothing wrong with saying this.
"…I was thinking that the Seventeenth Master has always loved to indulge in the beauty of nature, and Concubine Shu has always been favored by the Emperor. The Emperor has just started to recover, so he hasn't had time to make any big moves. But the Emperor is used to worrying about the country and the people. I'm afraid that he won't be able to adapt to being idle all of a sudden."
The implication is that in order to prevent Kangxi from interfering in political affairs again, we have to find something else for him to do.
"What does Liang Gong mean?" Yinreng's hands tapped the chair he was sitting on from time to time.
Nian Gengyao had no intention of keeping the secret: "My sister also likes the customs and practices of various places in the Qing Dynasty. She once told me that she is looking forward to traveling around the beautiful scenery of the Qing Dynasty with her husband and his family after getting married. She also happens to be a person who is slightly proficient in martial arts. It is rare that she and Prince Guo have similar interests. I think that if they can get married, and the emperor shows mercy, they can take the emperor and Concubine Shu to see the scenery of various places, and it can also serve as a private visit."
Yinreng showed an expression that was neither a smile nor a smile.
It sounds like the same thing, but who doesn’t know who?
Yinreng has been following the ups and downs of the Anqing story between the Fourth Brother and Nian Shilan. According to the latest report from his spies, under Nian Geng's continuous and fancy "breaking up the couple", Nian Shilan has successfully diverted her attention. The most important reason why she is now targeting the Seventeenth Brother is that the Seventeenth Brother's fighting ability is not good enough to beat her.
Nian Shilan probably planned to suppress Old Seventeen by force if he disobeyed her as soon as she entered the mansion.
Just now, his spies reported that in order to "astonish" Yunli after marriage, Nian Shilan has started training with a martial arts master specially found for her by her family.
However, even though he knew that Nian Gengyao's purpose in proposing this marriage was not simply to distract Kangxi's attention, he still agreed.
Putting aside Nian Gengyao's nonsense about his sister's marriage to the Seventeenth Prince being a match made in heaven, among all the purposes he mentioned, letting Kangxi travel around the country was indeed a good way to distract the old man's attention.
He has been playing outside and has become too ambitious. If he is allowed to stay in the capital for a long time, I guess the Emperor himself won't be able to stand it without me having to mention it.
It's just a reward to a half-brother, this deal is really a good deal.
Besides, since Nian Gengyao had been serving him so faithfully for so many years, it was not a bad thing for him to reward Yunli as his brother-in-law.
