She was afraid that even if she married him, she would never know what love was like.
But it was good that she didn't know. A fool has his fortune. Zhang Guifei paved the way for Song Tan.
Zhang Guifei sighed again. Before she left, she tucked Xia Ling in.
Zhang Guifei had already asked around. She had chosen Lu Zhiyao, the prince consort. He looked like Qinghua and had a gentle temperament. Song Tan marrying him was not a disgrace to her status as a princess.
If it were not for the fact that Lu Zhiyao had a poor background and was actually the son of a slave, no matter how much Zhang Guifei begged the government, Song Tan would not be able to marry him.
As the beloved concubine of the dynasty, this was the only thing Zhang Guifei could do for her silly daughter.
*
Xia Ling knew that Zhang Guifei had left.
Xia Ling accepted the plot and memories of this body.
In this world, the original owner of the book dress was called Song Tan, the third Princess of the Song Dynasty. Because Zhang Guifei had a palace fight before she was born, she accidentally ate something. Song Tan was damaged in her mother's womb and was not very smart.
She grew to 13 years old, and when it was time for her to get married, she did not even know how to call her mother.
If such a silly princess was in someone else's hands, she would have been secretly executed long ago, so as not to ruin the reputation of the palace. However, because Zhang Guifei was deeply favored by the emperor in the Harem, Song Tan's life in the HAREM was not bad.
In the palace, Song Tan had an elder sister and a younger sister.
The eldest Princess, Song Yu, was the eldest princess of the empress. Yu was the meaning of Meiyu. The officials valued this princess very much and gave her the title of Fu An.
As for the third Princess, Song Qian, she was born to a talented mother. Her status was not high, and she did not even have the right to raise Song Qian.
Song Qian had been adopted by the empress since she was young. She had a good relationship with Princess Fu an, and even better with Song Tan.
Song Tan was a fool. Song Qian wanted to make a name for herself. On the surface, she was close to Song Tan, but in the dark, she deducted Song Tan's monthly salary from the palace. She often went to Song Tan's Palace to make a name for herself.
Zhang Guifei was usually busy competing for favor. She would occasionally visit her daughter and see how patient Song Qian was with Song Tan. Zhang Guifei was grateful to Song Qian, and she always thought of Song Qian in everything that Song Tan had She only wanted Song Qian to take care of Song Tan and be Song Tan's partner.
Unfortunately, Song Qian was not so easy to get rid of.
She showed Zhang Guifei that she was on good terms with Song Tan, and in front of Song Yu, she showed how she could order Song Tan around like a fool.
The empress and the Guifei were not on good terms, but in the Harem, Song Qian became the fisherman who benefited, and she had a very high position in both forces.
Song Qian was a person who had traveled through time, and she was well-versed in the rules of the workplace.
As an unremarkable princess of the concubine, when she was three years old, she had already clung to the emperor's legs and hugged him softly, calling him father, letting the officials hug her.
When she was seven or eight years old, her appearance was always ingenious. It was not glamorous, but it always exuded a pleasing aura.
As time passed, although Song Qian was not of a high birth, she was the most favored princess in the palace.
No one knew that Song Qian, who was so elegant and graceful, had secretly given Song Tan the good stuff that Zhang Guifei had given her in Song Tan's Palace to nourish her body. She took it away and used it herself.
Song Tan was a fool. Of course, she did not know that she had been wronged. She happily became friends with Song Qian until Song Tan was twelve years old.
Song Tan was past her marriageable age, and her first period had already arrived.
Seeing that the eldest princess, Song Yu, had already become the son-in-law, Zhang Guifei was worried about Song Tan's marriage. She set her sights on the number one scholar in the past few years.
In the Song Dynasty, although it was different from the Song Dynasty in history, it was open-minded. The most popular thing was to snatch a bride under the rankings on the day of the release of the rankings. If a noble family with a noble daughter took a fancy to a good man, they would often snatch him away There was an example of a man being stuffed in a Palanquin and carried away.
This time, Zhang Guifei was worried about Song Tan.
She carefully selected and finally picked Lu Zhiyao out of more than a hundred tribute students.
Lu Zhiyao was born as a servant. His father was a stable boy for the county magistrate, so he could be considered a servant of the county magistrate's family.
There were seven brothers in his family. In order to study, he helped the students while listening in the school hall. Just like that, he passed the county, county, and court examinations... ... His literary talent was outstanding. He hit three yuan consecutively and became the top scholar on the three rankings ! !
Lu Zhiyao was very good-looking. His phoenix-like eyes were slightly raised, his skin was fair, and he was tall and slender. When he wore a scholar's robe, he had the demeanor of a young master of Zhuo Shijia.
Although he was born as a servant, the noble ladies liked his Tsinghua University Aura. Moreover, he was well-spoken, and he was very outstanding in both his manners and manners.
Lu Zhiyao wore a green top scholar's robe, and the scene of him riding around Bianliang on a tall horse with a flower hairpin by his ear was seen by many noble ladies of the government. They turned around and asked their father to invite Lu Zhiyao to visit them.
There were many undercurrents in the capital. Many adults had taken a liking to Lu Zhiyao. They took a liking to Lu Zhiyao's potential, and all parties sent invitations to Lu Zhiyao.
Lu Zhiyao picked a few people who could go. His manner was gentle, and his words were humorous. If anyone was with him, even if he was a playboy who never liked sour scholars, they would feel that they had a lot to talk about with Lu Zhiyao, and they would treat Lu Zhiyao as their confidant.
Lu Zhiyao was such an outstanding scholar that was rarely seen in a decade.
Everyone thought that he would make a career in the imperial court and be entrusted with an important task. However, no one had expected that he would be taken a liking by Zhang Guifei. She directly asked the official family for an imperial decree to grant him a marriage, and Lu zhiyao became the son-in-law.
Although this Song Dynasty was not quite the same as the Song Dynasty in history, it was much the same.
Without experiencing the massacre of the Liao Xia and yuan dynasties, the Song Dynasty successfully completed the centralization of power. Half of the dynasties were similar to capitalist dynasties and farmland were registered, but transactions were allowed.
The other half were the rules left behind by the ancestors. The emperor's son-in-law was not allowed to participate in politics.
Before Lu Zhiyao could react, he had already become the emperor's son-in-law. From then on, although Lu Zhiyao had a second-grade official position in the Imperial Court of the Great Song, he did not even have the space to speak in the imperial court.
Lu Zhiyao hadn't even met Song Tan yet, but his face was already dark.
On the wedding night, he was first called over by Zhang Guifei to give him a scolding and show him off.
Then, Lu Zhiyao met his new wife.
She was... ... round-faced, with a slightly pointed chin. However, her eyes were dark and somewhat unfocused. It was as if she couldn't even blink her eyes. She gave off a dull aura as she stared at him in a daze ...
Lu Zhiyao saw that something was wrong. After a few rounds of questioning, the old woman finally admitted that Princess Fu Yu's mind wasn't very clear, so Zhang Guifei sent them to follow beside Song Tan to take care of her.
Not Very clear-headed Lu zhiyao quickly realized that this princess was not not clear-headed at all. She was clearly mentally ill and could not even speak.
