150. The Golden Palace chooses a son-in-law
After the prince went back and told the emperor about this, the emperor pondered: "You said that after the princess of Dayue saw the fifth child, she changed her tone, and also proposed to choose a son-in-law in person, it seems that she has taken a fancy to the fifth child!" ”
The prince said: "It's just that according to Erchen's point of view, the fifth brother is bound to be unwilling to agree." ”
The emperor nodded: "This child has been stubborn since he was a child, and now he is determined to marry that folk woman, what do you think about this?" ”
The prince thought for a while and said: "Erchen thinks that marriage is not allowed to be child's play, the fifth brother is just impulsive at this time, and did not carefully consider the inappropriateness of this matter, as a brother, Erchen has the responsibility to persuade the fifth brother, but if the fifth brother must insist on going his own way, the son of the minister begs his father not to be too forceful, after all, there is a proverb among the people, the twisted melon is not sweet, if the fifth brother is indeed unwilling to take the princess of Da Yue, then we don't need to wronged the fifth brother for this." ”
"Good!" The emperor high-fived and said, "You are kind-hearted, but your biggest shortcoming is that you are too indecisive, and now it is rare to have such courage for your fifth brother." In this way, I can promise Princess Dayue to her, but I will also give her a chance to fight for the woman Yu'er likes. ”
Speaking of Ningxi, the emperor's feelings are a little complicated, seeing her, it always reminds her of the girl who was as soft as water in the Jiangnan area when he was on patrol in micro-clothes.
At that time, he was not the supreme of the Ninety-Five, but a prince who had a good chance of being selected to become the prince, when he went to Jiangnan to do an errand, after doing it, he pretended to be an ordinary scholar to travel around the mountains and rivers, and met a girl from an ordinary merchant family by chance, the young man with strong blood and the gentle girl fell in love at first sight, when the love was strong, he did have such an idea for a moment, and simply gave up the position of the prince at his fingertips, and since then he has been incognito, and he has been with this woman for a lifetime.
But in the end, the woman inevitably knew his identity, and he said: "You go back with me, I will not marry the daughter of the left prime minister, and I will not take the crown prince's position, we will go back and ask our father to agree to let us marry." ”
But she didn't even want to fight for it, so she resolutely left him, and even did not hesitate to cut her hair to become a nun, and since then the green lantern ancient Buddha has been with her for a lifetime.
That day, his fifth son held Ning Xi's hand and knelt in front of him, the emperor suddenly felt a little trance in front of him, and vaguely seemed to see that he was holding the woman's hand and kneeling there, if he really brought her back, what would the result be?
In the end, he still hated a little, hated that she didn't even give him this opportunity to fight.
So this time, he wanted to see where they could go if they were given a chance.
Thinking of this, the emperor said to the crown prince: "In three days, gather all the princes and all unmarried men over the age of eighteen and under the age of thirty in the families of officials above the second rank, and let's come to the Golden Palace to elect a son-in-law." ”
"Golden Palace's son-in-law?" The prince's eyes widened.
The emperor laughed and said: "Recently, the palace has been too dull, and your imperial grandmother is not very well, so it's good to make some fun to make him happy!" Spread my will, and let the harem ladies and relatives also come to watch when the time comes. ”
"Yes!" The crown prince arched his hand, and only hoped that the surprise prepared by the emperor for the queen mother would not become a fright.
The time of the three days passed in a flash, and soon it was the day when the princess of the Great Yue Kingdom chose a son-in-law.
The harem, which had been silent for a long time, was as lively as a festival, everyone was dressed up in flowers, and they came to the place where the Jinluan Palace was specially separated by a bead curtain, and looked out curiously through the bead curtain, wanting to see how the deviant princess of the Great Yue Kingdom chose a son-in-law.
Accompanying the Queen Mother, in addition to the queen, there should also be Wu Shiqing, who should still be grounded, this Wu Shiqing is also a great thing, in just three days, she regained the favor of the Queen Mother, not only lifted her grounding, but also allowed her to join in the excitement today.
In addition to the group of women separated by the beaded curtain, the outside of the curtain is also very lively, hearing the news of this son-in-law, this group of young men who have been selected by others can be described as a few happy and a few sad.
Because of the trouble in the capital before, so Princess Xia Bo's reputation is not very good, in the minds of these official children, Princess Xia Bo is an arrogant and arrogant woman, most of the men with noble families are unwilling to marry such women and go home, only some want to climb, but want to take advantage of this opportunity to show a good look.
Regardless of whether they were forced to come here or willingly, the moment Princess Xia Bo came out, the whole hall was quiet for a moment, and suddenly it was like a stone thrown into the water, first a ripple appeared, and then the water wave expanded in a circle, and the whispering voice made the hall quickly boil.
It turned out that Princess Xia Bo was so beautiful, I saw that she was wearing a bright red riding suit, the simple lines outlined a delicate figure, a long black hair braided into dozens of small braids, the braids were decorated with uniform size, shining pearls, the complexion was snow-white and delicate, the nose was high and deep-eyed, and the eyes seemed to hide two blue and clear lakes, faintly a bit of breathtaking.
Many people here have only heard of Princess Xia Bo's name, but they have never seen her, and at this time, they are excited, and the already interesting person is more like picking up a treasure, and can marry such a stunning beauty, even if the temper is a little worse and the personality is a little worse, it is also sweet! And those who were originally reluctant were also a little shaken at this time.
Especially the second prince, after the last Seven Absolute Sect incidents, he completely fell silent, depressed, self-defeating and eating and drinking, a handsome and dashing young man ate himself into a big fat man, at this moment a fiery heart under his fat chest is beating "bang", if he can really marry the princess of Da Yue Kingdom, with the support of Da Yue Kingdom, then does he have a chance to fight with the crown prince?
Since it is a son-in-law, all the men naturally have to show a good attitude, in order to get the favor of the princess of Dayue, the emperor is not too big to see the excitement, and ordered everyone to take turns to come up to show their talents, of course, the princes do not need it, they just need to sit in front of them while drinking and appraising their heads.
The men who want to participate in the display are the men in the families of officials above the second grade, most of them are well-mannered readers, some of them are reciting poems, and some are painting on the spot, but these Xia Bo princesses are not interested at all, she can't help but yawn, a pair of beautiful blue eyes look around boredly, and from time to time secretly glance at Jun Qianyu who is sitting upright, just hoping that this scene will end early, so that she can ask the emperor to marry Jun Qianyu.
Wu Shiqing behind the bead curtain has always paid attention to Princess Xia Bo, she has always regarded herself very highly, thinking that in terms of beauty, she Wu Shiqing is naturally unparalleled in the world, but she didn't expect a completely different style Princess Xia Bo to suddenly appear, her beauty is not below her at all, and she can actually concentrate the best men in the entire capital here for her to choose, but what about herself? In order to get an ideal marriage, I had to please the Queen Mother, an old woman who exuded a decadent atmosphere all over her body.
The more Wu Shiqing thought about it, the more angry she became, and she trembled with jealousy.
Especially when she saw the other party's obvious intentions, she was even more angry and wanted to go crazy, why did she ask for it, but this woman could ask so openly.
Wu Shiqing pinched herself fiercely, barely kept her composure, quietly took a few steps back, beckoned to the personal maid behind her, and asked in a low voice, "Are the things I want ready yet?" ”
The maid also replied in a barely audible voice: "It's ready." ”
At this time, Princess Xia Bo was suddenly attracted by a man who came to the stage, this man was tall and long-legged, extremely tall, wearing a black power suit, and his strong muscles seemed to be about to come out under the thin clothes, but he didn't look coarse, but very flexible and agile.
A face is also very good-looking, although it is not the kind of beautiful and delicate Jun Qianyu, but there is another kind of refreshing and good-looking like a bright moon and a clear breeze, and it has its own heroic spirit.
This man performed a set of sword dances, different from the sword dances of ordinary women, this man's sword dance carried a sonorous and powerful momentum, as if the thunder of the battlefield was brought to this hall, and suddenly the hall was filled with a heroic atmosphere.
Seeing Princess Xia Bo's eyes widen, she couldn't help but sigh in a low voice: "This is the real manhood!" "This is the second man that Princess Xia Bo has seen in Da Zhou who can make her heart move.
Jun Qianyu saw this scene and nodded with satisfaction.
This man's surname is Xiao Mingxia, he was once a fierce general under his command, Jun Qianyu had a life-saving grace for him, he once swore that as long as King Yu had an order, he Xiao Mingxia would definitely go to the soup and die.
Jun Qianyu asked people to inquire about Princess Xia Bo's preferences, and knew that she had two characteristics, one was to love food, the other was to advocate force, and she hated sour and rotten scholars the most, and she had the least resistance to the handsome men who were powerful and powerful.
And this Xiao Mingxia, who was originally an inconspicuous concubine in the side branch of the Yasukuni Mansion, because he bravely killed the enemy on the battlefield and made a lot of achievements, and now he is named Zhenbei Hou, who is the fourth grade, is only twenty or four years old, and he has not yet married, he is young and promising, and the future is promising, and Princess Xia Bo who is destined for the subject country is not considered to have insulted her.
What's more coincidental is that Xiao Mingxia's station is now the junction of Da Zhou and Da Yue, I believe that if Princess Xia Bo marries him, it will definitely have a great role in promoting the peace on the border between the two places, even if the king of Da Yue will be dissatisfied with this, but this person was chosen by the princess herself, and they have nothing to say.
The more Jun Qianyu thought about it, the more he felt that he had played this abacus well, as for the question of whether General Xiao liked Princess Xia Bo or not, such a simple, rough and beautiful woman, are you afraid that he can't deal with it?
