"Mi Zhen's marriage?" Ji Shi was stunned when he heard this, and then thought about it before he said tentatively, "It seems that the princess has already agreed to Mi Zhen?"

She knew that Old Madam Qin had been deeply guilty of Princess Gaomi all these years, so she had always been tolerant and obedient to this daughter.

Although Rong Mianhe refused to ask for Zhao Tao's makeup and insisted on marrying Sheng Weiqiao, which made the Zhao family very faceless, but Princess Gaomi wants to spoil this son, and Mrs. Qin will not object?

The key is...... As far as Ji's understanding of Princess Gaomi is concerned, this eldest sister-in-law is not the kind of person who will disobey her son's will just because her mother's mother opened her mouth.

"What did you say I did when I matched Tao Cheng and Mi Zhen?" Old Madam Qin said expressionlessly, "The reasons I said to Midnight, although I didn't lie to her, but I didn't tell her what I really thought." ”

The old lady's tone was indifferent, "Of course, with Midnight's intelligence, she also knows it in her heart. ”

Ji Shi was stunned: "What do you mean by ......?"

"Our family was tied to King Gaomi's boat early in the morning, this is what the first emperor meant, the Zhao family had no choice at that time, and now it is the same, it must go to the dark on this road!" Old Madam Qin said lightly, "Among the arms of King Gaomi, our family has the deepest relationship with him, not to mention that the pay must be the most, but it is definitely one of the most!"

She paused, and Fang continued with a complicated expression, "So, in the future, the Meng clan will be proud, and our family will have nothing to say! But if it is Gaomi Wang Jianzuo...... Are you willing to be pressed down by the Qi family?!"

"Mother means...... The position of the prince of Gaomi?!" Ji covered his mouth in shock and said hurriedly, "But the current prince is also the princess's own son, ......?"

Old Madam Qin said expressionlessly: "Both of them are my grandsons, how can I want to see them fratricidal?" My original plan was to have another princess from the Zhao family, which could not only ensure that our family would not be suppressed by the Qi family by taking the opportunity of marrying the royal family, but also allow Tao Cheng to give full play to the advantage of growing up in front of King Gaomi and Midnight, and mediate all parties, so as not to have a discord with He'er. ”

"But now Mi Zhen wants to marry the girl of the Sheng family......"

She narrowed her eyes, and the cold air overflowed, "Could it be that the merits of the three generations of my Zhao family's assistance to King Gaomi have finally fulfilled the Qi family?!"

"This thing is really too risky!" Ji Shi didn't approve very much, "First of all, Mi Zhen looks like he has an idea, he has identified the county lord of Kang Zhao, where is he willing to change it easily? Second, we are just Mi Zhen's foreign family, and the princess is obedient to him, where do we have reason to influence him in this kind of matter? After all, the Tao Cheng sisters went to live in the palace for a few days, and they didn't say anything with him!"

"Third ......"

If she could, Ji also hoped that the Zhao family would not be busy in vain, and after hesitating, she proposed, "There are also a few girls under the knees of Brother Shan'er, and the age is similar to that of the eldest son under the knees of the prince over there?"

In the generation of the prince of Gaomi, the wife of the prince is the Qi family; the Ji family is unwilling to marry his daughter to Rong Qingdrunk; and Rong Sleeping Crane is unwilling to marry Zhao Taocheng. The hope of this generation of the Zhao family marrying with King Gaomi is slim, but it can start with grandchildren!

If there is no accident, the eldest grandson of King Gaomi, Rong Lingzhan, who is only six years old this year, will definitely achieve extraordinary achievements in the future, right?

"You forgot one thing!" However, Old Madam Qin listened to her second daughter-in-law's words, sighed, and reminded her, "Midnight has long been lost, it is really the foundation I laid for her in the early years, so she has survived until today! Although at this time, because of He'er's safe return, she has the idea of survival, and she is willing to cooperate with the imperial doctor to seriously recuperate her body, but the fifteen-year deficit is not a joke, can you guarantee that she can live until Lingzhan grows up and marries our girl?!"

The old lady's eyes were heavy, "Even if it can be guaranteed, once she is gone, the Qi family, as the biological mother of Lingzhan, is not a word to take care of her daughter-in-law?" The Qi family has many heirs, and she has so many nieces and nephews, even if she doesn't want her nieces to be her daughter-in-law, there are so many people in the Qi family, do you think everyone will not move this idea?!"

"When the time comes, our family will be the next Wen family!"

Thinking that Empress Wen was first deposed and lived in Zhenning Palace from Wangchun Palace, even if the middle sister Xiaowen was lucky enough to give birth to a prince, she was immediately strangled by the nursing mother, not to mention, and then the Wen family, who had been abolished for many years, was given to death and exiled by the Heclan...... Ji couldn't help but shudder, and then said, "Mother, then why don't we marry the royal family......?"

Old Madam Qin glanced at her with a little disappointment, seemed to endure for a while, and said, "You said that I have worked so hard to plan, but I am unwilling that the Zhao family will not get the due return in the future?"

The old man's sigh was mixed with imperceptible tiredness, which made Ji's face blush subconsciously, "I'm afraid, it's difficult for the Zhao family to ride a tiger!"

"Is it difficult to ride a tiger?" Ji Shi chewed on the word seriously, and his face gradually changed, "Mother said...... Martial power?!"

"The most elite soldier in the country is none other than the Northern Xinjiang Army, and the world knows that now the Northern Xinjiang Army is divided into two, one faction is in the hands of Shi'er, and the other faction has defected to the Meng family. Old Madam Qin said coldly, "And this situation is not only the intrigue between the two sides in the court, but also the hard work of Shi'er and Zheng Guogong who went to the border in person and worked hard for more than 20 years!"

"This military power is not easy to come by, but it is even more difficult to abandon it...... Not to mention the example of General Zhou, Ning Weihou is a typical example!"

Xu Zijing has been in the court for a few years, this person is very knowledgeable, after entering the court, he quickly took the initiative to cut off contact with the army, at least on the surface, it was very clean and fast.

also let the only son honestly go all the way from Xiucai to Jinshi, and at this time he is grinding his qualifications in the Hanlin Academy, and he is taking the most orthodox road to civil official promotion.

But even so, Xu Zijing, the squire of the military department, is still cautious.

Old Madam Qin looked at the Ji clan deeply, "Do you want our family to live like that in the future?"

Ji's mouth was open, speechless, no one wanted to be suspicious all day long.

But the Ji family hesitated for a while, and still felt that Old Madam Qin was a little worried, so he hesitated: "The Xu family has a thin background, and there is no help in the court. But our family heirloom of poetry and books does not say, the princess is the mother of the son in the end, no matter whether the princess is still there in the future...... Whether it is the prince or the Qi family, if you read it in the face of the princess, you will never say ......"

"You stupid boy!" Old Madam Qin sighed when she heard this, and said, "You don't know why Marquis Ning Wei can return to the dynasty and be knighted after his reputation in Northern Xinjiang is rising?

"Isn't it because Ning Weihou's family background is weak, and letting him go has nothing to do with the overall situation; General Zhou Da was born in a family of generals, became famous as a young man, knew well in the sea, and fought horses all his life, it can be said that there are countless generals and henchmen, many heirs under his knees, and his in-laws are all over the government and the opposition, so he must die?!"

"Not to mention this kind of commander who holds military power, it's Duke Huan, did you say that after he disappeared in the first place, did he not find any real clues? Or, the people above the court don't want him to be found?!"

The old lady's eyes were as sharp as a sword, as if she wanted to pierce Ji's heart, but her tone was desolate, "It's cold in high places...... The more people are worried, you know?"

Ji sat there stunned for a while, and then said in a dumb voice: "But Mi Zhen has made it clear that he doesn't want to be a peach at this time, and besides, in terms of his relationship with the prince...... Even if we want to let Tao Cheng marry him, this will be the future?"

Old Madam Qin was about to answer, when there was a sudden sound of footsteps outside, followed by the voice of her confidant: "Old lady, the eldest lady ordered someone to send a letter, something happened in Guangling Palace!"

The mother-in-law seemed to calm down before continuing, "Princess Chai...... Nope. ”

Princess Chai is the wife of King Guangling, and she is also the biological mother of King Guangling's son, and this princess's background is far less good than that of Princess Gaomi.

After all, when the first emperor died, King Guangling was not yet ten years old, and his mother was ordered to be buried by Empress Dowager Meng.

So when it's time to discuss marriage, his marriage can't be sought-after: he has no power, no power, and he is still a thorn in the side of the queen mother, and he can only survive by the protection of King Gaomi.

In this case, it is naturally impossible to marry a noble girl.

Even if it is an ordinary official girl, the parents consider that the queen mother is angry, and they are all shaking their heads when they are asked euphemistically by King Gaomi.

At this time, Zhao Shi of Northern Xinjiang sent an orphan girl to Chang'an, saying that she was the only daughter of a general in the Northern Xinjiang Army, without any brothers and sisters, and her biological mother died early.

Originally, I wanted to ask the old lady of Qin to recognize a righteous daughter and so on, but after being known by King Gaomi, he inquired about his appearance and temperament, asked King Guangling's meaning, and after his filial piety, he said that he gave King Guangling a concubine.

This couple can't talk about honey and oil, but they have a lot in common with each other's life experiences, and their temperaments are not the kind of weird that ordinary people can't bear, so they don't get along badly.

Because Zhao Shi was sent to Chang'an, when he married into the Guangling Palace, he was still from the Zhao family, and the wife of the Guangling King was the eldest lady of the Zhao family, Zhao Taojiao, so the relationship between Princess Chai and the Zhao family has always been close.

Every New Year's holiday, they all treat the Zhao family as their mother's house.

But at the previous Shanglin Yuan Chongwu banquet, King Guangling and the Meng clan teamed up to put King Gaomi together, and the relationship between the two sides quickly faded.

During the Mid-Autumn Festival and the Double Ninth Festival, although Princess Chai sent things over as before, she did not go back to Zhao's Mansion to visit in person with Zhao Taojiao.

Because of the Xinna side concubine Meng of the Guangling Palace, the Zhao Mansion thought that Princess Chai was afraid of being embarrassed to meet, so Zhao Taojiao brought a few greetings and didn't think much about it.

But I didn't expect it......

Old Madam Qin, who heard the bad news at first glance, and Ji were both stunned for a while before asking, "Why not?!"
