In the middle of the night, it was even more exposed, but an uninvited guest came to the dormitory where the Queen Mother was located.

In order to hide people's eyes, this guest was dressed as a little eunuch, but she was personally led by Aunt Luo Xia, who had been serving the Empress Dowager for many years, avoiding everyone's eyes and ears, and quietly entered the Empress Dowager's bedroom.

The Empress Dowager was well-dressed and sat cross-legged, showing that she had not gone to bed all this time, as if she knew that there would be a guest visiting tonight.

After Aunt Luo Xia introduced people into the palace, she personally waited outside the palace.

The person who came respectfully greeted the Empress Dowager, the clothes of this little eunuch were still a little bigger for this person, but it made him even more slender, not as burly as ordinary men.

The Empress Dowager has passed the year of the Mandate of Heaven, her hair is pale, but her face is still radiant, like a crane with a childish face, every word and deed, she has a royal demeanor, which is unspeakably expensive.

The Empress Dowager has gone through four dynasties and assisted three emperors, from the emperor to the subjects, all of whom are admired. It is precisely because of the Empress Dowager that she does not dare to make waves and blind the eyes and ears because she is in charge!

Seeing the visitor, the Empress Dowager's usually strict face also showed a rare trace of a loving smile, and said:

"I know that when you come back, you will definitely come to the palace to see me, good boy!

The Empress Dowager beckoned the man to sit beside her, her face full of pampering and love.

The person who came laughed, and also threw himself into the arms of the Queen Mother, and shouted sweetly:

"Imperial grandmother, Wan'er misses you so much!"

The Empress Dowager gently patted the child's back and said with a smile:

"The imperial grandmother also wants Wan'er, come, let the imperial grandmother take a look, well, it seems that it has been reduced a lot!"

The Queen Mother gently stroked the child's face, even if she was dressed in men's clothes, this child still couldn't hide her peerless elegance, and this eye and lips were more and more like her mother, they were all beautiful women in the city!

This person who came to visit the Empress Dowager in the middle of the night was the eldest princess who was the most favored by the Empress Dowager of the Great Wei State - Xiao Wan!

"Imperial grandmother, imperial grandmother, why, why him?!"

The Empress Dowager knew that Wan'er would have this question, and she suddenly issued a decree and promised her to Gao Chen, the eldest son and grandson of the Gao family, who seemed to be out of the climate, naturally there would be many people who were puzzled, and now it seems that her smart and calm eldest princess will also have a time when she is flustered!

"What, you've seen that kid?"

According to Wan'er's arrogant temperament, he naturally wants to meet Gao Chen first to see if this person is really worthy of him.

At the mention of Gao Chen, Xiao Wan couldn't help but feel angry in his heart, thinking about his spineless appearance that night, he was even more angry, and complained a little about the Empress Dowager, and said angrily:

"Imperial grandmother, didn't you see it, that kid, he ......"

Xiao Wan roughly told the Queen Mother about the events of that night, but she didn't expect the Queen Mother to laugh when she found out.

Xiao Wan looked at his imperial grandmother in confusion.

"Silly boy, you should know that the imperial grandmother is for your good!"

The Empress Dowager was kind and relieved, she knew the temperament of the eldest princess.

Wan'er knows that the princess seems to be noble, but the matter of marriage is never involuntary, and she is in a high position, but she also has to bear her due responsibility. Wan'er and several younger sisters all know it, so no matter how unwilling they are in their hearts, they will follow the royal will to marry a famous clan and maintain the royal prestige. ”

Xiao Wan knelt at the feet of the imperial grandmother, before the relationship between the grandmother and the granddaughter, they were still the relationship between the queen mother and the princess, this is the royal family. First there is the country, then the monarch and the minister, and finally the relatives.

Forced by the situation, now, the Gao family controls the imperial power, the royal family is helpless, and marriage with the Gao family will also become inevitable. The key is that among the two civil and military champions of the Gao family, it is more appropriate to point who is the horse.

The Empress Dowager also hesitated between Gao Chen and Gao Wei, and it is foreseeable that Gao Wei's future career will be far above Gao Chen, and among the Gao clan, Gao Qin is the leader. Gao Wei can be said to have the advantage, and Gao Chen's biggest advantage is that as the grandson of the Gao family, the rest seems to have no merit.

In this way, the Empress Dowager was more inclined to choose Gao Wei as the eldest princess's concubine, but after summoning the two of them into the main hall for questioning, the Empress Dowager changed her mind and appointed Gao Chen as the eldest princess's concubine. Because she found that the children and grandchildren of this high family who get by every day are not as ordinary people see, and they have no merit.

"Gao Wei's eyes are sharp, his ambitions are too big, and he will be difficult to control in the future, and that Gao Chen can be completely controlled by you and used by you!"

The Empress Dowager explained the reason why Gao Chen was recruited as a concubine, and also eliminated the doubts in Xiao Wan's heart.

It's just that for some reason, Xiao Wan's heart was filled with a sourness, marriage is the most important thing for a woman, but for them, is happiness or something a luxury after all?

Xiao Wan took a piece of jade pendant in his hand, this is a beautifully carved phoenix match, this jade pendant was originally a pair, and the other piece is a dragon jade.

The dragon and jade phoenix match, originally the emperor made people to extract diluted jade, and ordered skilled craftsmen to carve out in the posture of dragons and phoenixes. Jade is extremely rare, it warms up, is warm and pleasant, wears it all year round, can adjust the veins, calms and calms the nerves, and has the effect of prolonging life. What's even more commendable is that in the darkness you can see verdant fluorescence, precious and abnormal, unique in the world.

The first emperor gave the pair of jade pendants to the first queen, and after the queen gave birth to a son and a daughter, she gave the dragon jade to the eldest prince, and the phoenix was given to the eldest princess. Long Yu has entered the Yellow Spring Netherworld with the abolished prince, and in this world, only the phoenix is left to mourn alone......

"So, the imperial grandmother gave the phoenix to Gao Chen, right? is he the person that the imperial grandmother said, worthy of Wan'er's trust?"

The Empress Dowager once said to Xiao Wan that the person who will be attached to this phoenix match in the future is the person she can trust with confidence.

Therefore, tonight, although he accidentally saw Gao Chen, Ziyu wanted to take his life but was stopped by himself, also because he was wearing a phoenix match.

"How sure is the imperial grandmother, Gao Chen will really be used by me......"

Xiao Wan knows very well that Gao Chen has always been a member of the Gao family.

"You have to believe the Imperial Grandmother, and I will tell you about this matter when the time comes. ”

......

Xiao Wan lowered his head slightly, his eyes sparkled tactfully, as if he felt something, and then said:

"Wan'er obeyed the decree of the emperor's grandmother and married Gao Chen. But this phoenix is matched, it also depends on whether he is worthy or not!"

This is Xiao Wan's last pride, she can marry someone she doesn't like for the sake of the country, but she can't deliver her sincerity at will and let others be cheap.

What a silly boy......

The Empress Dowager picked up Xiao Wan and took her in her arms to comfort her.

"Tomorrow, the mourning family will make a decree to let the eldest princess return to Beijing. In the past few days, if you want to stay in the palace, you can walk as a little eunuch, and the mourning family will ask your Aunt Luoxia to help you take care of one or two. ”

"Grandmother Xie. ”

In fact, Gao Chen will be chosen not only because he is easy to control, but more importantly, it is also a little selfish for the sake of Wan'er by the Queen Mother, for some reason, the Queen Mother feels: Gao Chen, will be a good horse!

Maybe Wan'er doesn't understand it now, but one day, she will understand, and I just hope that it won't be too late that day......
