Chapter 173: Candidates

"Mother, don't think so. www.biquge.infoHearing the queen's words, Mu Nan hurriedly persuaded, "The princess is not yet in time, there are at least three or four years before she gets married, you can plan slowly, and choose a son of a high-ranking family for the princess, and then the princess will marry with the prestige of the royal family, and the horse has a family as a backer, how can you keep the glory of a lifetime!" ”

The queen was not comforted when she heard this, and said worriedly: "I originally thought the same way, but judging from the current situation, we may not be able to do so......

“…… Are you talking about the rumors in the palace lately? Mu Nan's voice sounded a little surprised, "Those rumors are just random nonsense in private by the palace people, and they can't be true." Besides, our princess is smart, and she won't get involved with Jinxianghou......"

Jinxiang Hou?

Why did you get to Jinxiang?

Sikong Yuanshuo was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then heard the queen say angrily: "Of course I know my own daughter, she is still a child, she is either thinking about eating or playing all day long, how can she understand the private affairs of children?" ”

"And what are you worried about?"

The queen was silent for a while, and said: "Jinxianghou has been coming to my Dakang for almost a year, as long as Dakang and Xifan are friends for a day, then we have to respect Jinxianghou, and we can't neglect him...... He's not too young, so he can't be a single for the rest of his life, right? ”

"You...... You mean......" Mu Nan was taken aback and blurted out, "No! It is impossible for the emperor to marry the princess to Jinxianghou! He's a proton of Zephani! ”

"What happened to Proton? Even if he is a proton, he is also the rightful prince of Xifan, and his status is noble. He came to Dakang as a hostage this time, I don't know when he will be able to return to Xifan, when the time comes, he always has to marry a wife and have children, and then the emperor will have to give him a marriage, right? With his identity, he has to marry a county lord or a princess...... Although there is more than one princess of the right age, but Concubine An and their mother's family are powerful, and I am afraid that ......" The words turned into a sigh here.

Mu Nan was also a little uncertain when he heard this: "But the emperor and the queen mother love our princess so much, how can they ...... How can you give ...... If there is a Tianjin hometown waiting to return to China, won't the princess have to follow her away? She was a little anxious when she said, "Niangniang, then you must persuade the emperor and beg the emperor not to marry the princess to Jinxianghou!" ”

“…… The emperor is a Ming monarch, and he should focus on the society of the world, if he decides to marry Changning to Jinxianghou, it must be after careful consideration...... I am of the same heart as the emperor and his wife, so I naturally want to support him. ”

"But ......"

Mu Nan wanted to say something, but the queen signaled that she didn't need to say much, and raised her eyes to look into the window: "Remember to have someone bring the bird's nest porridge later." ”

“…… Be. ”

Sikong Yuanshuo quietly looked at the slender and petite back of the queen, and turned around and walked out of Kunning Palace in a long time.

Back in the Qianqing Palace, he approved two folds, suddenly threw down the pen, and asked, "Fang Quan, have you heard the rumors of Changning and Jinxianghou?" ”

Fang Quan hung his head and replied respectfully: "The servants serve in the Qianqing Palace on weekdays, and they haven't heard the people below talking about the princess and Jinxianghou in private. ”

In other words, he doesn't know if people outside the Qianqing Palace have discussed this matter.

Sikong Yuanshuo thoughtfully "um", picked up the pen again, and did not go to bed until late at night.

The next morning, Gu Ge Lao, Liu Ge Lao and others came to the Qianqing Palace to discuss matters, and in the gap between drinking tea and resting, Sikong Yuanshuo said casually: "You say, if I want to choose a princess to marry Jinxiang Hou, who is more suitable?" ”

There was a sudden silence in the huge imperial study, and everyone looked at each other, not knowing how to answer this sudden question.

After a while, Gu Ge Lao asked, "Why did the emperor think of marrying Jinxiang?" ”

"It's nothing, I'm just asking." Sikong Yuanshuo smiled, and his tone was very relaxed, "Yesterday, Jinxiang waited to enter the palace to ask for peace, and when it came to the marriage of the second prince, I thought that he was two years older than the second prince, and it was time for him to start a family." Now that he is in Dakang, I naturally can't treat him badly, and I have to give him a good family business. ”

"Your Majesty." Elder Gu Ge smiled when he heard this, "Jinxiang Hou is from Queen Xifan, and her status is noble, but she is also worthy of our princess of Dakang." ”

"Then according to Aiqing, which princess is more suitable?"

Gu Ge Lao thought for a while and said: "In my humble opinion, among the princesses of the right age, the third princess has a straightforward personality, the fourth princess has outstanding virtues, the fifth princess is gentle and filial, and the sixth princess is smart and lovely, all of which are extremely suitable candidates." ”

The words were clear, but Sikong Yuanshuo still heard the meaning of his words, and couldn't help but secretly say to the old fox.

He said that the third princess's straightforward personality means that she is not good at strategy, and it is difficult to take on the important task of marrying with the West, and the fourth princess is outstanding in virtue is to euphemistically say that she is mediocre in appearance, and it is difficult to gain the favor of Jinxianghou, and the fifth princess is gentle and filial but refers to her mother's low background, and she herself is cowardly, only the sixth princess, who is both smart and outstanding, and is the queen, which is the most suitable for marriage......

Sikong Yuanshuo rubbed the teacup, nodded lightly, and then asked about the disaster in Shandong, and no longer mentioned the matter of marriage.

The holy will was unpredictable, Gu Ge Lao and the others secretly exchanged a look and replied respectfully.

In the afternoon, Sikong Yuanshuo went to Cining Palace to greet the Queen Mother.

When I arrived at Cining Palace, the queen and Liu Guifei were also there, and there was a little girl like flowers and bones, wearing a pink gown with a hundred butterflies and flowers, standing by the kang and pointing to a blue and white porcelain soup cup on the kang table and saying something.

Sikong Yuanshuo came in from outside, and just happened to hear the Queen Mother compliment: "What a clever girl!" ”

Seeing him come in, the people in the room suddenly became shorter and saluted respectfully.

The little girl retreated behind Liu Guifei and followed everyone to salute him.

Sikong Yuanshuo thought that this girl should be the fifth lady of the Dai family, the daughter-in-law of the Queen Mother.

Although he knew about this, it was the first time he saw someone, and he couldn't help but be a little curious, and when he asked the Queen Mother to say goodbye and sat on the kang, he pointed at Dai Yuhan and smiled at Liu Guifei: "This is the little girl of the Dai family?" ”

"Yes." Concubine Liu Guifei smiled lightly and told Dai Yuhan to come out and ask the emperor to say goodbye.

Dai Yuhan walked to the kang with a calm and obedient expression, knelt down with her skirt, and said in a clear voice: "Courtier Dai Yuhan, please say hello to the emperor." ”

"Let's be flat."

"Your Majesty." Dai Yuhan got up and retreated behind Liu Guifei, never raised his eyes to look at Sikong Yuanshuo, with thorough etiquette and free advance and retreat.

Sikong Yuanshuo couldn't help but bow slightly.

After a cup of tea, the queen and Liu Guifei retired, leaving Sikong Yuanshuo's mother and son to speak.

The Queen Mother asked him: "What do you think of the fifth lady of the Dai family?" But is it still worthy of Ningce? (To be continued.) )
