Chapter 436 Rejection
Concubine Liu Xian immediately asked the palace people to go to Emperor Yuanchang to spread the word, saying that she had made the side dishes that Emperor Yuanchang loved to eat, just waiting for Emperor Yuanchang to arrive. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
After a short time, the palace people came back to report that Emperor Yuanchang would come to Yongshou Palace at night.
Concubine Liu Xian's heart was relieved.
She made up her mind to find a princess with a better background for Chu Chengqi.
Chu Chengqi is a mud who can't support the wall, this is very clear in Concubine Liu Xian's heart, and it is precisely because she recognizes this that she wants Chu Chengqi to marry a daughter-in-law from a high-born family.
Emperor Yuanchang is now half a hundred years old, to put it mildly, Emperor Yuanchang will always die one day, and when the time comes, whether King Duan or King Ning ascends the throne, who will be as patient with Chu Chengqi as Emperor Yuanchang?
If there is no powerful princess in her mother's family, I am afraid that as soon as the new emperor ascends the throne, Chu Chengqi will really have to wait for death.
From this point of view, Concubine Liu Xian also pities the hearts of her parents all over the world.
After getting the reply that Emperor Yuanchang would come to Yongshou Palace in the evening, in order to make Emperor Yuanchang wait happily, Concubine Liu Xian spared no effort, not only made a few side dishes that Emperor Yuanchang usually liked, but also specially cooked a cup of soup that was extremely time-consuming and laborious.
When it was dark, Concubine Liu Xian, who was anxious, went to the palace gate several times to guard, and finally looked forward to Emperor Yuanchang.
Greeted Emperor Yuanchang and entered the Yongshou Palace together, Concubine Liu Xian was busy with the palace people to put the prepared meals on the table, and personally scooped a bowl of soup for Emperor Yuanchang, and when all this was ready, she waved away the palace people.
Emperor Yuanchang was busy serving Concubine Liu Xian with a peaceful face, and when only he and Concubine Liu Xian were left in the hall, he glanced at Concubine Liu Xian with a smile, "When did Concubine Ai and I become so polite, I have been busy for so long and I have worked hard to love Concubine Ai, hurry up and sit down to eat with me." ”
Concubine Liu Xian has also been a pillow person with Emperor Yuanchang for more than 20 years, seeing Emperor Yuanchang's expression, where can I not know that he guessed his thoughts, so he no longer concealed it, glanced at Emperor Yuanchang, and sat next to Emperor Yuanchang, "Your Majesty, don't make fun of the concubine, the concubine also wants our emperor to marry a good daughter-in-law, you can be careful about the concubine." ”
Emperor Yuanchang didn't rush to speak, and slowly drank the soup made by Concubine Liu Xian in the blue and white porcelain bowl with a silver spoon with exquisite patterns, and when the bowl of soup was finished, he glanced at Concubine Liu Xian again, "Concubine Ai is Chengqi's biological mother, and it is only right to plan more for him, I can only be pleased, how can I make fun of it." Then let's talk about it, which girl do you fall in love with?"
Concubine Liu Xian was overjoyed.
As long as Emperor Yuanchang asks, then this matter will be easy to handle.
Ye Tassel, as well as the few noble girls she is optimistic about, even if they are all married, this world is still Emperor Yuanchang's, as long as Emperor Yuanchang decrees marriage, even if they are married, they can only obediently withdraw from marriage and marry Chu Chengqi.
That's what she intended from the beginning.
Therefore, the problem now is to persuade Emperor Yuanchang to give a decree to give marriage.
Thinking of this, Concubine Liu Xian took Emperor Yuanchang's hand like a little girl who had not yet grown up, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, what is the concubine thinking in her heart really can't hide it from you, the concubine does have a candidate in her heart, what do you think of Ye Taifu's granddaughter Ye Tassel? ”
As soon as Concubine Liu Xian finished speaking, her eyes were firmly fixed on Emperor Yuanchang.
After listening to Concubine Liu Xian's words, Emperor Yuanchang thought for a moment before speaking, "Mrs. Ye's granddaughter is really good......
Concubine Liu Xian was overjoyed.
But her joy didn't last long, and was broken by Emperor Yuanchang's next sentence.
"But ......" Emperor Yuanchang's faint and majestic gaze fell on Concubine Liu Xian's face that seemed to suddenly glow, "If I remember correctly, Mrs. Ye's granddaughter was married not long ago, and this matter was specially talked about by Mrs. Ye when he entered the palace, and Mrs. Ye was very satisfied with this future grandson-in-law." ”
Concubine Liu Xian's face stiffened.
Of course, she knew that Ye Tassel had already made a marriage.
The last time Princess Duan held a banquet on her birthday, her mother's niece and daughter-in-law Yao learned the news from the mouth of the Naning Gu family, and the Yao family talked about it with Concubine Liu Xian when she entered the palace later.
But in her heart, the most optimistic candidate is Ye Tassel, so she knows this and is still testing in front of Emperor Yuanchang.
Unexpectedly, Emperor Yuanchang didn't allow her to say anything at all.
"But, the emperor ......"
Concubine Liu Xian wanted to say a few words, but asked Emperor Yuanchang to stop her.
"Aifei doesn't need to say more, since Taifu Ye's granddaughter has already married, she naturally does not meet the prerequisites for Chengqi to choose a concubine, so why don't my sons still have to rob a woman with the courtiers?" Emperor Yuanchang furrowed his eyebrows slightly, not allowing Concubine Liu Xian to say more, "I have already seen the portraits sent by the Ministry of Rites, and there are several good candidates in it, Aifei, you are Chengqi's biological mother, and I allow you to choose a good one among these people." ”
When Emperor Yuanchang said this, he almost put this matter in the coffin.
Concubine Liu Xian couldn't stop being disappointed in her heart, she only mentioned a leaf tassel, and Emperor Yuanchang had already blocked all the words she wanted to say later.
Could it be that her son can really only choose one of the ladies from the Ministry of Rites to be the main concubine?
As long as she thought about it like this, Concubine Liu Xian's heart hurt.
At the same time, she couldn't help but secretly have a little more resentment towards Emperor Yuanchang in her heart, no matter what, Chu Chengqi is also the son of her and Emperor Yuanchang, why does Emperor Yuanchang refuse to think more about this son?
Did he still expect that King Duan or King Ning would treat this younger brother well after he ascended the throne in the future?
Concubine Liu Xian was full of unwillingness.
But Emperor Yuanchang has already mentioned it, how can she continue to mention this matter?
With a heart, Concubine Liu Xian waited for Emperor Yuanchang to finish the meal.
She thought that since Emperor Yuanchang had already come to Yongshou Palace tonight, he would naturally stay in Yongshou Palace, but after finishing her meal, Emperor Yuanchang said a few words to her, and then drove away.
Shocked and annoyed again, Concubine Liu Xian immediately went to inquire where Emperor Yuanchang had gone after leaving Yongshou Palace.
The answer is not surprising, Emperor Yuanchang went to Concubine Zheng's Yonghe Palace.
I heard that Concubine Zheng Guifei has been a little unhappy since she returned to the palace from the Shangyuan Lantern Festival.
Concubine Liu Xian was so angry that her face was distorted.
What kind of body is not cool, but it is just an excuse to compete for favor, where is the imperial doctor in Yonghe Palace to take a step in during this time?
After resentment, Concubine Liu Xian also secretly made up her mind in her heart, about Chu Chengqi's future, even if Emperor Yuanchang did not agree this time, she could not just admit her fate! )
