The fifth, 14th, please go to ask for the child to marry

The capital, in front of Prince Gong's palace.

A group of men and horses galloped forward and behind them, and the first one rode tall and strong, with white hair all over his body, mixed with patches of pale red spots, and raised his head high, and he was a real god horse, with golden bridles, golden stirrups, and red sapphires inlaid with silver on the edge of the saddle. If it weren't for the princes and nobles, or for the rich dignitaries, they wouldn't dare to use such a luxurious saddle.

The man on the saddle has a noble demeanor, lofty eyebrows, and a calm bearing. But seeing that he was about twenty-two years old, he was born with a handsome and delicate white face like a crown of jade, two oblique light eyebrows, a pair of black crystal eyes shining, a straight bile nose, painted red lips, slightly wrinkled brows, and a faint anxiety.

Seeing that he was almost at the gate of the palace, his slightly frowning brows finally slowly stretched a little, the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, and a shallow smile appeared, making him even more gentle and kind. He is the only son of Prince Gong--- the little prince Jieshu.

At this moment, the little prince had already come to the door, and some servants had already stepped forward to bow down and wait for him to dismount. He dismounted and immediately rushed towards the door, and the servants came in one after another: "The little prince has returned to the house! The little prince has returned to the house! The little prince has returned to the house!!

The little prince stepped into the hall quickly, and when he saw his parents sitting and waiting in the hall, he couldn't help but smile, hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down, and said happily: "The child knocks on his father and mother!"

"My son," said the princess, "get up quickly, let the concubine see it." ”

The little prince got up and walked to his mother's side and said, "Mother, everything is fine with the child. ”

"Are you okay?" the princess caressed the little prince's hand lovingly, and said bitterly, "You have lost a lot of weight," she looked at him and frowned, "It's really hard for you to sleep in the open in the past few months." My heart tightens at the thought of you going so far over the mountains. ”

She sighed, her brow furrowed even tighter, "I heard that Yunnan is remote and desolate, full of poor mountains and bad waters, and there are no roads, and besides, there are those wild people, I heard that they can eat people, haven't you? " She said, almost crying.

"Okay," Prince Gong smiled and said, "It's not so scary, besides, Jieshu is back well, why are you crying?"

"Mother," the little prince squatted down, wiped his tears for his mother, and said with a smile: "Don't be sad, those wild people don't dare to eat me, and I don't even lose a single hair." Believe it or not, count them carefully. ”

The princess was amused: "You kid is still laughing, the mother is very worried, and she has nightmares every night, for fear that if you have any accidents, the mother will not be able to see you." Alas!" she sighed, and said, "I really don't know how the emperor would send you to such a desolate and remote place? ”

"Princess," Prince Gong said busily, "It is precisely because Jieshu is the emperor's brother that the emperor sent him to replace the emperor on this trip, why can't you even understand this." Okay, don't be sad, if you do this again, Jieshu will be sad in his heart. Jieshu," he said to the little prince again, "Have you seen the emperor?"

"Yes," said the little prince, "as soon as the child arrives in the capital, he will first ask to see the emperor, and the emperor will summon him immediately." The child reported this time to the emperor, and also presented the return gifts of the king of Nan'an County, Mrs. Lu and Lord Lu. The emperor was very happy and had already given a banquet, but the child missed his parents and rushed back. ”

The princess said: "It's been a few months since I left, and I don't want to think that the mother concubine is looking forward to your return every day." ”

"You," Prince Gong said to the princess, "of course Jieshu thinks about us, you see, he has only been gone back and forth for six months, and it is already very fast. Don't you know that those merchants who go to Yunnan usually have to walk for eight or nine months, or even longer. ”

The little prince looked at his parents, thinking about how to open his mouth in his heart, yes, he came back day and night. He looked at his parents, and suddenly made up his mind, he got up and knelt down to his parents, and said, "Father, mother, the child has one thing to ask his father and mother to be the masters!"

The princess hurriedly said: "Jieshu, hurry up! If you have something to say, your father and mother will naturally make decisions for you, you don't have to kneel like this and not get up." ”

The little prince didn't get up: "The child is still kneeling." ”

When Prince Gong saw it, he didn't know what the big deal was, so he hurriedly said, "Jieshu, what's the matter, you say?"

The little prince looked at his father and mother and said, "I beg my father and mother to ask for a marriage for the child!"

"Ask for a kiss!" When the princess heard this, she immediately raised her eyebrows, and hurriedly smiled: "You child, the mother concubine has long wanted you to become her own son, and you have mentioned to you how many famous daughters and young ladies of the family, you are not satisfied." The concubine is still worried, I wonder what kind of daughter you are looking for to be satisfied?

The more she talked, the more happy she became, and she couldn't help but step forward to help the little prince: "Son, do you have a fancy for someone's young lady? Who is it? Tell the mother concubine quickly." ”

Prince Gong also smiled, full of joy, looked at his son and said, "Who do you have a crush on?" ”

The little prince took a deep breath and said, "It's the second lady of Prime Minister Nangong!"

"Second Miss Nangong?" Prince Gong said suspiciously: "Jieshu, are you mistaken? Isn't that Second Miss Nangong married Lu Longjing, the champion of the Golden Branch? Last time, when the emperor summoned Lu Zhuangyuan in the Golden Palace, you were also there, didn't you also hear that? Now, how can we ask for marriage again?"

"Father," the little prince said hurriedly, "Mr. Lu doesn't want to marry her, and their marriage contract actually doesn't exist anymore." The current Second Miss Nangong is simply an unmarried lady and a boudoir, why can't we go to ask for a marriage?"

The princess didn't know much who the second Miss Nangong was, but after listening to Prince Gong's words at this time, she hurriedly said: "Jie Shu, since this Miss Nangong has a marriage contract, why does that Lu Zhuangyuan refuse to marry her? Is this young lady ugly or misbehaved?"

"Mother," the little prince was angry at his mother's contemptuous tone, and couldn't help defending Cui'e: "Miss Nangong is not only beautiful, but also dignified and virtuous, gentle and elegant, with an extraordinary temperament, and she is also knowledgeable and understanding. Mother, you haven't seen her, you don't know how beautiful and beautiful she is. ”

The princess said disdainfully: "Since she is so good, why does Lu Zhuangyuan still refuse to marry her? Anyway, there are many dignified and virtuous and beautiful young ladies like flowers, we will choose slowly, there will always be a much better lady than her who will satisfy you. ”
