Chapter 32: The Dream of the Tide (2)
When Fang Mei heard Chaohuoxin's words, a trace of jealousy flashed in her eyes and a strong hatred, but Chaohuoxin, who was drinking ginseng soup, didn't notice it, Fang Mei quickly covered up this emotion, regained her smile, continued to rub Chaohuoxin's shoulders, and said, "Master, since the emperor is satisfied with the eldest lady, why don't you give an order directly?" ”
Chaohuo Shimbun smiled and explained, "You don't understand this, right, the emperor doesn't make a clear decree, which is undoubtedly a benefit to me." Wu'er has just returned to the capital, and the emperor has decreed that she will give marriage, and I am afraid that there will be many ministers who will wonder in private whether I did this on purpose, sending my daughter to the prince, winning the prince's favor, and then climbing the prince's big tree. ”
"The emperor also took these into account when doing this, so that no matter who it is, it is the best way. At most, it will not be half a month, and the decree of marriage will come down. After saying this, the corners of Chaohuoxin's mouth couldn't help but rise.
Although he regrets that he has no son in his life, he has the daughter of Chaoxi Wu, which is better than his son, after marrying the prince, she is the rightful princess, and after the prince ascends the throne, Wu'er will be the queen, and this kind of glory is more than ten times more glorious than being a general.
"Master, Meng'er's age is not too young, and I see that the eldest lady's marriage is decided. You have to choose a good husband for our dreams. Fang Meijiao said didily.
Hearing this, Chaohuo Xin lowered his eyes, flashed a trace of contemplation, he only cared about Wu'er during this time, and he really didn't care so much about Meng'er's affairs, if it wasn't for the prince's arrival today, seeing the prince's reaction to Meng'er, he was afraid that for a while, he wouldn't be able to get up to find a husband for Meng'er.
Now that Fang Mei has spoken out, Chao Huoxin simply asked tentatively, "Mei'er, I want to marry Meng'er to the crown prince, I don't know if you are willing?" ”
In a certain aspect, Chaohuoxin still loves Fang Mei in his heart, so in this matter, he still asked Fang Mei's opinion, after all, it is the woman he loves, and Meng'er is his favorite daughter.
When Fang Mei heard this, she chuckled in her heart, she never thought that Chaohuo Xin actually had this idea, wanting to emulate Empress E, who was rubbing Chaohuo Xin's shoulder, and unconsciously increased her strength.
"Mei'er, what's wrong with you? Don't want to? Chaohuo Xin noticed that something was wrong with Fang Mei at this time, Fang Mei was standing behind him at this time, he couldn't see Fang Mei's expression, and he didn't know what she was thinking.
Chaohuo's new call recalled Fang Mei's divine sense, she laughed dryly twice, and said, "Master, Meng'er's affairs, the concubine body listens to the master, and what the master says is what it is, but I don't know how about Lu Dao Meng'er?" ”
Hearing this, Chaohuo Xin smiled indifferently, and said as a matter of course, "Since ancient times, it has been the order of the matchmaker's parents, and the other party is still the prince, what else can she find fault with, you mother-in-law, find a chance to talk to Meng'er." ”
"The concubine knows the way, and the concubine will talk to Meng'er about it." Fang Mei said very obediently. Her heart has been churning for a long time, and she is unwilling to let Meng'er marry the prince, but now that she doesn't say anything, it seems to be useless, it is better to simply obey directly, so that she can please Chaohuo's new favor, why not do it.
"Okay, you've had a hard day, go back and rest, prepare well tonight, and I'll come to your place for dinner."
"The concubine knows the way, and the concubine will retire first, master, don't be too tired." Fang Mei's relationship with the Tao.
Chaohuo Xin nodded, seeing this, Fang Mei withdrew from the study, Fang Mei, who walked out of the study, the smile on her face suddenly fell, and the silk scarf in her hand was stirred together, since she couldn't change the fact that Meng'er was going to marry the prince, she had to fight for Meng'er to get the best thing, at least after marrying the prince in the future, Meng'er didn't have to look at Chao Xiwu's face to live.
And at this time, Chao Xiwu was on the side, and immediately received the news that Fang Mei was looking for Chaohuo, she lay lazily on the toise chair, playing with the dagger in her hand, and listened to the green dye chirping and said, "Miss, just now on the way to the kitchen, the slave maid met the red willow, so I chatted with her a few words, she said to the slave maid, you just came back from the study not long ago, you saw the second aunt walk into the study, and stayed in the study for a long time, according to the slave maid, the second aunt must be playing some bad idea." ”
Hearing this, Chao Xiwu smiled, put the dagger in his hand aside, and then said leisurely, "What idea did she play, I still can't guess it?" ”
As soon as Midori heard this, her curiosity was immediately aroused, and she leaned in front of Chao Xiwu, her eyes widened and she asked, "Miss, what is the idea of the second aunt?" And how did you guess it, Miss? ”
Chao Xiwu explained unhurriedly, "First, Chao Ximeng likes the prince, she must want to marry him, since she wants to marry him, someone must help her, and the person who helps her is undoubtedly Fang Mei." Second, Fang Mei has always loved Chao Ximeng, if Chao Ximeng is pretending to be pitiful, pretending to be affectionate, and saying anything if you don't marry, Fang Mei will definitely agree. ”
"You are thinking, why would Fang Mei choose this time to go to the study, she just wanted to test her father and see what her father meant. If I'm not mistaken, my father has already told Fang Mei that he intends to point Chao Ximeng to the prince as a side concubine. ”
After listening to this, Midori was stunned for a while before he came back to his senses and said indignantly, "Miss, master... The old man is also too partial, how can he do this. ”
Midori kept complaining, it didn't matter to Chao Xiwu, she had already understood after she was reborn, and the only bit of family affection for Chao Huo Xin disappeared with this move.
"Miss, are you going to let the second aunt and the second miss ride on your head like this?"
When Chao Xiwu heard this, a trace of coldness flashed in her eyes, of course she wouldn't, but now she has to do this, if she wants to get rid of Xuanyuan's promise, she must rely on Chao Ximeng and Fang Mei, according to Fang Mei's character, it is impossible to watch her marry the crown prince as the crown princess, and her daughter as a side concubine, so she will definitely try her best to let her daughter sit in the position of the crown princess.
And she can just take advantage of such an opportunity to completely get rid of the trouble of Xuanyuan's promise, and in addition, there will be a war on the frontier in half a year, and then she can completely stay away from the capital, and when the war is over, she will have nothing to do with these things in the capital.
