Chapter 384: The Prince's Cleverness

Actually, Gu Zhirong is not such a gossip person, but now she has taken care of Gu Wenxin's marriage, and she wants to introduce Gu Wenxin to the prince and become a pair with the prince. So, of course, a good person has to be a good person to the end, and for the person she wants to introduce to Gu Wenxin, she has a certain understanding of it, which is also the necessary professional ethics of the matchmaker, right?

When she heard Gu Zhirong's words, "The crown princess is to be chosen from our Yuanning Hou", Wen Yan's face instantly darkened.

Gu Zhirong was very good at observing words and feelings, and immediately understood that what he said touched Wen Yan's sore spot, and hurriedly said apologetically: "Sister Wen, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to say this...... If, if you don't want to say it, just if I never asked. ”

Wen Yan sighed, she was not a stingy person, so she smiled bitterly: "It's okay, the reason why I haven't discussed marriage so far, everyone in the capital knows that my grandfather's purpose in keeping me in the mansion is to go to the crown princess, and this is not an ulterior secret." ”

Gu Zhirong was silent for a while before she said, "My sister already knows that the crown princess will definitely come from our Yuanning Hou Mansion, why don't you discuss marriage?"

She knows that girls in this era generally discuss marriage when they are thirteen or fourteen years old, and if they go through the whole process, it will take almost a year, and they will be married by then, so that they will not be delayed.

Of course, what an incredible thing this is for a person like Gu Zhirong who has come through in modern times. What a child, only fifteen years old, and about to get married. I'm not an adult yet. The daughter who married out at this age, no matter how she looked at it, she felt like a child daughter-in-law.

Wen Yan said sullenly: "Actually, the matter that the crown princess must be selected from your Yuanning Marquis Mansion was only brought up during this time.

I remember many years ago. When His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was very young, he seemed to have mentioned it to the first emperor, and the first emperor also agreed. But all these years have passed, no one has mentioned this matter again, everyone thought that the prince was young at the time, and the words of children should not be taken seriously, so grandpa told me. You want me to marry the crown prince and be the crown princess.

I didn't think about it, just some time ago. The prince actually mentioned it again, and said that the king had no jokes, which was also promised by the first emperor himself. Since it is the last order of the first emperor, who would dare to disobey it. Even the queen mother, her old man, is not good at disobeying the will of the first emperor. So. That's how this matter was settled. ”

Gu Zhirong suddenly realized. She had always wondered why she hadn't known about it until recently.

Still, there was one thing she hadn't figured out......

She looked at Wen Yan and asked, "Sister Wen, what are you talking about, many years ago." When His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was very young, he seemed to have mentioned it to the first emperor. The first emperor also agreed, what's going on, did the prince fall in love with my sisters when he was very young?"

She thought to herself, the crown prince is not too old now, but he is young in his early twenties, if he had been many years ago, he should have been very young, only about eleven or twelve years old, if such a young child knew who he liked, it would be too precocious, right?

This time it was Wen Yan's turn to be a little surprised, she glanced at Gu Zhirong and wondered, "You really don't know about this matter?"

Gu Zhirong said blankly: "I really don't know." ”

Seeing that Wen Yan still looked incredulous, she had no choice but to say, "Sister Wen, you have also heard that I had an accident when I was a child, and I don't remember much about the past. ”

In fact, her accident was that she came through it, and she didn't have any memories of the deity at all, so she had to pretend to be confused to get through the things when she was a child.

Seeing that Wen Yan was still looking at her suspiciously, she had no choice but to point to her head and say, "It's hurt here, my mother has invited many famous doctors to see it, and they all say that it is not curable, and it is possible that I will not be able to remember what happened when I was a child for the rest of my life." ”

In the end, even Gu Zhirong admired her ability to lie without changing her face, and at the same time, she was very sorry for Wen Yan in her heart, she couldn't help it, if she didn't say this, there was really no way to explain her amnesia.

"That's right. Wen Yan looked at her sympathetically, thought about it, and suddenly became happy, "Sister Gu, don't worry. I remember that there was a kind of wizard in the Western Regions who could hypnotize, and let them do it for you, and you would soon remember what had happened before. ”

Gu Zhirong was taken aback, hypnotic, forget it, it will be troublesome if it is really exposed when the time comes.

She hurriedly waved her hand and said: "Thank you Sister Wen for your kindness, but you really don't have to be so troublesome, Master Mingkong is a generation of famous doctors, and he knows a lot of people, he has treated me all these years, and I have been taking the medicine he dispenses, I think, as long as I go to the places where I lived before, I believe I will be able to remember the past soon." ”

Wen Yan thought about it, Master Mingkong was such a famous generation of Chinese medicine saints, and he was responsible for treating the Gu sister in front of her, what else did she have to worry about?

Gu Zhirong saw that Wen Yan was no longer entangled in the things he had lost his memory, so he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly changed the topic: "Sister Wen, you haven't told me yet, what happened many years ago, how could His Royal Highness the Crown Prince propose to the first emperor to choose the crown princess in the Yuanning Marquis Mansion for no reason?"

Wen Yan thought for a while and said, "I don't know much about this matter, it was my grandfather who told me." It is said that one day eight years ago, the first emperor took the crown prince and the three princes to the Yuanning Marquis Mansion to find the old marquis, when the first emperor and the old marquis were talking in the main hall, and the three princes were quiet and had been quietly accompanying the first emperor. The prince was very active, and it happened that there were a few little girls carved in the Yuanning Marquis's mansion, so the first emperor asked the prince to play with them. When he went back, the crown prince told the first emperor that when he grew up, he would definitely marry one of the girls from the Yuanning Marquis Mansion as the crown princess. The first emperor liked the prince very much, and subconsciously wanted to cultivate the prince's royal temperament, so he said to him, you know that the king has no jokes, and what he says must be fulfilled, you have to think about it. The prince at that time nodded resolutely and said that he would never regret it. The first emperor was very happy, so he responded to this matter. ”

Speaking of this, Wen Yan sighed again: "That's all I know. ”

Gu Zhirong thought to himself, how old could the prince be at that time? At most eleven or twelve years old, right? An eleven or twelve-year-old child must understand the truth that Jun Wu joked, is this kind of education too cruel? You must know that an eleven or twelve-year-old child is immature in mind, and it is impossible to know such a thing as feelings, but I am afraid that he will regret it when the time comes.

But don't worry too much, the prince, in addition to the main concubine, there are several side concubines, in order to maintain his prestige, what he said when he was a child must be fulfilled, but he still has room to return, it's a big deal to accept the girl he likes as a side concubine.

This is the benefit of an emperor having three palaces and six courts, three thousand fandel, there is always one he likes.

"Sister Wen, don't you really know who was closest to the prince back then?"

Gu Zhirong couldn't help but be a little disappointed, and after asking for a long time, he actually asked a lot of questions. If you knew who the prince liked back then, wouldn't it be so troublesome?

But after thinking about it, she immediately understood that this was exactly the cleverness of the prince. If he directly says which girl he likes, that girl will be in trouble, not only from inside the house, but also from outside the house. After all, the Marquis of Yuanning is just a petty official of the fifth grade, and he has no real power, looking at the capital, he is much bigger than his official rank.

When the prince said this at the time, everyone treated it as a child's joke and didn't care. This not only preserved the Yuanning Marquis Mansion, but also preserved the girl who was in his favor.

However, then again, it was surprising that a child would have such a plan. (To be continued.) )
