Chapter 239: Second Brother
Since that day, Qi Zhe has really lived in Yongwang's Mansion safely, anyway, he is familiar with this place, and he can still have Xiao Huanyan to play with him for a while every day, this mood is naturally a lot better, Xibao is also happy, and finally someone can cure Huanyan, this little devil.
A few days later, Zhao Yunxuan's position was finally decided, and he assisted in managing the million Imperial Forest Army from the post of Major General of the Fourth Rank Xuanwei, and the position was set, and Zhao Yunxuan was much easier.
Xibao knew that the second brother was both happy and worried about the official position, this position is really the dream of too many martial arts families, it is naturally a good thing to be able to sit in such a position, but behind this it is inevitable to carry a series of bloody winds, after all, the Royal Forest Army is the emperor's personal guard, which is more strict and treacherous than the outgoing army, and the struggle here will also be very complicated, Xibao is very worried about whether her second brother's temperament can be balanced.
This is not Zhao Yunxuan's visit, she can say something.
As soon as Zhao Yunxuan entered the door, he turned his head frequently, with a curious expression, Xibao asked, "What's the matter, second brother, is there anything wrong outside?" ”
Zhao Yunxuan said with a smile: "No, it's just that I just met King Zhe, it's just a little strange, how can King Zhe be in the mansion." ”
Xibao handed over the tea and said with a smile: "Ao, Fifth Master, he is here to avoid the limelight." ”
"Avoiding the limelight, King Zhe hasn't caused any trouble lately, has he?" Zhao Yunxuan said strangely.
"No, it's just that the fifth master has also reached the marriageable age, and he is forced to marry by a foreign family, and he really has no choice. I just came to the house to take refuge, and the second brother sat down. Xibao said with a smile.
"Forced marriage, foreign family, this thing is strange, the palace is not in a hurry, and the foreign family of King Zhe is positive." Zhao Yunxuan also said.
"I also said that the fifth master, the second brother, you are too." Since she talked about marriage, Xibao also talked about her second brother.
Zhao Yunxuan looked puzzled and said, "I, what's wrong with me?" ”
Xibao sighed and said, "My second brother is arrogant, young and promising. He was also appointed as a major general to assist in the management of the million-dollar Imperial Forest Army. Such a good young man is bound to become the first choice for the young lady of the family, you haven't noticed how long you have been back. There are so many more people who come to visit the palace at home. It's all because of you. ”
"This. I really didn't realize that these days I was either staying at home or accompanying my brothers who came back with me to visit relatives. I didn't pay much attention to the things in this house, and my mother didn't say anything, and besides, I just came back, so I'm not in a hurry. Zhao Yunxuan didn't care.
"Don't worry, you're not in a hurry, but others are in a hurry, you, the fifth master, are also forced to hide from the prince, not to mention that you are a few years older than others, your position is also set now, these princely families should come to the door one after another, you and the eldest brother are different, he will be unknown, and he was favored by the Jianhou Mansion, so there are not so many things, you can't, you are back with military exploits, it is difficult to keep a low profile." Xibao said helplessly.
Zhao Yunxuan was stunned and said: "If someone asks you and your mother, you will trouble my sister to give it back, I just returned to Beijing, although the emperor's grace is vast, and there is the protection of the prince, but this future thing depends on me to work hard, this will be my unintentional children's affairs, in two or three years, when I have a firm foundation in the capital, it will not be too late to say." ”
Xibao smiled: "This, you should tell your mother by yourself, you also know how your mother worried about the eldest brother's marriage back then, if you are so late, your mother doesn't know what to think." ”
Zhao Yunxuan said with a smile: "Hey, don't worry, since the eldest brother is from here, he is bound to empathize, and he will naturally help me, besides, aren't the people who come to the door now all the power and net worth at this time, I can't afford such a person." ”
Xibao nodded and said: "In the end, it is my second brother, although I really want you to have someone around you who can take good care of you, but your will is still the most important, to tell you, a few days ago, that is, the night before you came back, the prince also mentioned to me that the second princess in the palace was interested in you, which scared me, I originally meant to refuse, but after all, it is a lifelong event about you, so I still want to ask you, ask my mother, but since you came back, our brothers and sisters have not been able to talk properly, and I have not been able to talk back to the palace about this matter, But since the second brother wants to live for a few more years, you won't agree to the princess, right? ”
"Second princess? This is really the case, and it's also in this palace?? Hey" Zhao Yunxuan felt helpless.
"What, the second brother already knows?" Xibao is strange.
"It's nothing, it's just that I entered the palace that day to face the saint, and after I finished talking, the emperor inadvertently mentioned it, not to ask me, but unintentionally mentioned it, I still think it's a joke, I didn't take it seriously." Zhao Yunxuan said.
"Well, the emperor also mentioned it, these two princesses have always been low-key, almost silent, why did the emperor mention it too, strange, second brother, you didn't say anything, right?" Xibao asked.
Zhao Yunxuan said: "I didn't say anything, the emperor asked me if I had any plans in this regard, and I told the truth, I didn't think about it in the past two years, and the emperor didn't say anything more." ”
Xibao was stunned and said: "The emperor should understand what the second brother meant, then I will rest assured, and then trouble the prince to enter the palace to reply to the queen." ”
Zhao Yunxuan said with a smile: "I'm a four-grade young general, where there is so much attention, really." ”
Xibao also smiled and said: "Just in case, the meaning of the palace still has to be understood, otherwise it will be criticized again like King Shen." ”
Zhao Yunxuan also nodded and said: "By the way, what happened to this King Shen, I heard people in the army mention it in the northwest, saying that it was King Shen and Prime Minister Liu Cheng??" Profound?? Wrong?? What does it matter if it should be Uncle Liu Guo, it is said that the emperor dealt with the two of them in anger, what is going on, do you know? ”
Xibao was stunned for a moment and was a little embarrassed: "Second brother, I won't tell you, I also heard about this, the prince is reluctant to mention it, I naturally won't be stupid enough to ask, I'm afraid this matter is a taboo in the palace, but Uncle Liu Guo was punished by the emperor for meddling in the matter of private salt, as for King Shen, I don't know much." You also know that King Shen has always kept a low profile, and this Princess Murong has also returned to the old lady Murong's mansion, so I have no reason to bother. ”
Zhao Yunxuan frowned for a long time before he said, "Princess Murong still hasn't been able to see the palace?" ”
Xibao said: "Yes, but the relationship between them is not so stiff, during the New Year's holidays, Princess Murong will also appear, but the former love is no longer traced, what a pity"
Zhao Yunxuan also sighed: "Yes, it's a pity, the two of them can be regarded as a pair of good couples that everyone envies." I didn't expect it to end up being a couple of resentful couples?? Hey"
Xibao glanced at Zhao Yunxuan and said, "It's all someone else's business." It has nothing to do with us, and there is no need for the second brother to sigh, as long as you find your sister-in-law in the future, it won't be like this. ”
Zhao Yunxuan smiled: "Okay, okay, you are the youngest girl in our family." I didn't expect you to have to worry about my marriage with my eldest brother. Come on. Your second brother is not stupid, he will naturally win it when he encounters the right one, don't forget that your second brother and I are a well-known soldier. This action will not be bad. ”
"Hehe, that's right, at least it's better than the eldest brother of Zhihuye, okay, let's not talk about it, now I'm worried about another thing." Xibao Road.
"What's the matter?" Zhao Yunxuan asked.
"You're a major general." Xi Bao in a word.
"Why, some people say this?" Zhao Yunxuan picked up the teacup and blew the tea ceremony.
"Second brother, to be honest, I don't really think about you and your eldest brother's current position, now, although you and your eldest brother are both important ministers in the court, but in the end you are still too young for those people, and the relationship between the prince is bound to be used to make a fuss, I am worried that there will be some unpleasant words that will reach your ears and make you uncomfortable." Xibao said truthfully.
Zhao Yunxuan slowly put down the teacup and said: "Sister, since you married King Yong, there is no way back from this road, you also know that the prince is destined to be the one who will ascend to the throne in the future, and everyone who has something to do with the prince will be affected, the first to bear the brunt is you backyard women, if my eldest brother and I don't grow up quickly and stand firm, then your life in the harem is destined to not be easy, now it's okay, at least those families will start to slowly fear our Zhao family, Then when they start, they will think about it more, and the prince will have a little more scruples about you in the future. ”
Xibao frowned and said: "Second brother, I don't know the intentions of you and the eldest brother, it's just that I don't want to sacrifice the comfort and happiness of you and the eldest brother because of me, besides, although I am usually gentle and gentle, but if this backyard woman really moves me, I will never let them or even the family behind them have a good life, I don't like to fight for power, but it doesn't mean that I can't, second brother, you don't need to worry." ”
"Sister, as the saying goes, once you enter the palace gate, it is as deep as the sea, how can you not worry about being an elder brother, the few noble masters you left in the palace, which one of them does not have a strong family background, you are the same, everything still has to be planned in advance, after all, the sacred heart is unpredictable." Zhao Yunxuan said with a stern face.
"No, he treats me well, and he treats his family well." Xibao hesitated.
"Fool, can this really be a lifetime, he is the prince will be the king of Daqi in the future, how can he put all his true heart on your little woman, yes, my brother admitted, the prince is treating you very well now, and we are also in it, I naturally hope that he will always be like this, and will never change, but sister, emperors are all kind, don't forget that old saying." Zhao Yunxuan knew that what he said was a little cruel, but he still had to say that after all, this was his own sister, and she didn't want her to regret it in the future.
"Second brother!" Xibao was a little annoyed.
"Sister, I know, you don't like to hear these words, but this is really a problem that must be considered, originally I thought it would not be so fast, but this time I came back, entered the court, I found out, I have to say, your happiness is naturally good, but you still have to be more vigilant, after all, he is not an ordinary person, don't you think you have slowly melted into the arms of the prince over the years, this is not a good thing for you." Zhao Yunxuan said.
"I understand!" Xibao said with some frustration.
Seeing that Xibao was a little unhappy, Zhao Yunxuan changed the topic and said: "Okay, sister, the second brother is reminding you, but with your cleverness, nothing should happen, and the second brother is the same, since it has been decided, even if it is bloody and bloody, you have to break through, not to mention this bit of gossip, your second brother has never been that kind of hearty person, you can rest assured of this." ”
Although Xibao felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, in order to reassure Zhao Yunxuan, he still smiled and said: "I know, I am so smart, and the second brother is naturally not bad." ”
Zhao Yunxuan smiled and diverted the topic and talked about family life? (To be continued.) )
