Chapter 523: Suspicion

"Who?"

Suddenly, a loud shout interrupted Xu Jingxuan's words, and immediately after, he saw a black shadow flash quickly not far away.

"Protect the Emperor!" Xu Jingxuan shouted out to the guards to protect Xu Ruixiang, and he immediately rushed out like an arrow from the string, chasing the place where the black shadow disappeared.

Xu Ruixiang never thought that there would be assassins sneaking into the palace on Chinese New Year's Eve, and seeing Ai'er chasing after him alone, he was afraid that there would be a mistake, so he immediately ordered: "Catch up with the Ninth Prince and protect his safety!" ”

"Yes!" Someone in the dark answered, only the sound of the clothes hunting and then disappearing, but no figure was seen, obviously the emperor's secret guard was dispatched.

The tension here did not spread to the banquet hall, so it was still very lively.

After being a little drunk, the third prince Xu Jingyu endured it again and again, and finally couldn't help but take the opportunity to toast in front of Queen Qiao, and asked in a low voice: "Queen Mother, do you really want to tell him the daughters of these four families?" ”

"Isn't there a more suitable candidate for Yu'ermo?" Queen Qiao raised her cloud sleeves, covered the cup, took a sip of wine, smiled, but said in a cold tone.

Xu Jingyu choked for a moment, the smile on his face remained unchanged, and his heart was still a little empty.

He didn't want to hear the conversation between his father and the queen mother, but he was the eldest son among the existing princes in the palace, and he sat closest to them, so even if they were talking loudly, their voices were not very high, but he still vaguely heard some probabilities.

Thinking of the identity background of those four women, and thinking that the identity of his concubine is not comparable to them. I can't help but feel a little lost.

This can only be said that Xu Jingyu's luck is not very good, when he was an adult and crowned, there were no daughters of the right age in the mansion of several high-ranking and powerful ministers of the humerus who could marry him as a reserve force.

But the queen was also bothered, in order to marry the eldest granddaughter of the military department at that time as a concubine.

Where did you know that the original military department Shangshu was also unlucky, Xu Jingyu had been married for less than half a year, and he suddenly vomited blood in the middle of the night, and even the imperial doctor died without waiting.

And he usually has a rough personality and is careless, thinking that he can still mix for decades, and he doesn't care about the cultivation of his juniors, therefore. Several sons. Including Xu Jingyu's father-in-law, he is still just an idle job in the military department, and as soon as the old man falls, no one in this family will be able to hold up, which is equivalent to ruining Xu Jingyu's backstage.

Therefore. I heard that Queen Qiao was looking for a candidate for Xu Jingxuan. The backstage is all extremely hard. Xu Jingyu's heart was inevitably unbalanced.

"These are indeed candidates who are extremely compatible with the Nine Emperor Brothers!" Xu Jingyu's heart can be sour, but he still has to say things against his heart so much.

Although it is not biological, it is a child raised by himself after all. Seeing Xu Jingyu so lost, Queen Qiao also couldn't bear to comfort her in her heart: "Don't feel wronged, the queen mother took such pains to choose for him, and it was also for your future!" ”

For his future, he shouldn't have looked for Xu Jingxuan's backstage background with such a tough Yue family! Doesn't she know that her father spoils him too much, maybe she has already planned to hand over the country to him? In addition, there is a reliable Yue family, and the father's doting on Xu Jingxuan will definitely become more and more out of control!

Xu Jingyu was dissatisfied in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it on his face, before the position of the prince was clearly established, he still had to rely on the support of the queen, which he understood better than anyone else.

"The plan of the queen mother and the child, the child understands in his heart!" He said respectfully.

"It's good to understand!" The queen nodded with satisfaction and said, "In your prince's mansion, the people are still a little thin, if the princess can't add another son and a half daughter for you next year, the queen mother will be the master to help you find two side concubines!" Heirs are the foundation of continuity, and your eldest son is just born of a concubine, and there is always less stability to gain a foothold! ”

Xu Jingyu suddenly burst into joy when he heard this, and now, the smile was genuine from the heart.

Since the princess Wang married him, she had nothing to do, and the queen lifted the ban on his concubines, agreeing that they could bear children for him first.

Although so far, he still has only one son and one daughter, but at least he has an heir. Now, the queen relented and said that she would take a concubine for him, which undoubtedly gave him a better guarantee.

"Thank you for worrying about the child!"

"Worrying about you is what the queen mother should do, although there are many princes under the emperor's knees now, you have to fully remember that you are the eldest son of your father's side, and you are raised by the side of the queen mother, and your status is undoubtedly the highest!" The queen lowered her voice.

"Yes! The child understands! ”

"Go down if you understand, lest others suspect you!"

"Yes! The child is gone! ”

Xu Jingyu retreated to his place refreshed, and toasted warmly with his younger brothers.

Looking at his unconcealed pride, when Xu Jingyu retracted his gaze, he stayed on Xu Jingyu's face for a moment, and said with a smile: "It seems that the queen mother has promised him some benefits!" ”

Xu Jingyu replied with a faint smile and said: "What if you make a promise, do you think your father is the kind of king who will listen to the wind next to the pillow?" ”

"Who knows!" Xu Jingyu said inscrutablely, "Maybe there is!" ”

Xu Jingyu raised his eyebrows slightly, his gaze seemed to pass through the entire hall, and he fell to an unknown place, and suddenly nodded in approval: "Maybe there is indeed one!" ”

He used the phrase of the past tense.

It's just that it's gone!

"As long as there were, many things became unknown!" Xu Jingyu continued to laugh mysteriously.

"Perhaps! But doesn't the seventh brother think that the moment is the most important? Xu Jingyu smiled and turned his head to look at this half-brother who seemed to have almost been given up by his father, "Concubine Chen's status in the eyes of his father is actually not ordinary!" ”

Otherwise, even if he was saddened by this Qi'er's deviance, he didn't really ignore it, and he wouldn't still maintain the position and title of Chen Concubine.

"It's better to be a concubine!" Xu Jingyu smiled indifferently.

He is destined to have no chance with the throne, even if his mother has been secretly actively preparing to pay, he will not have any thoughts, he is just willing to compete with that person and stay with him often.

Whether he is decadent or incompetent, all he wants is freedom and uninhibitedness.

Of course, in the unknown situation, he can't let go of everything and fly away with the man.

Xu Jingyu smiled, raised the glass cup in his hand and said, "Mother's love is selfless!" (To be continued......)
