Chapter 7: The Son of Heaven's Family Banquet (3)
The hall fell silent again, Xiao Chen looked at Xiao Yu worriedly, then looked at Xiao Feng, and said softly: "Liang Xiang's daughter must be good if you don't need to know it carefully." That Miss Liang, the concubine has also had a few encounters, and she is a likable child. However, Miss Liang is more than a year older than Li'er, and she happens to be a tiger, and she is tough, so I'm afraid it is not suitable for Li'er. After saying this, she deliberately paused to give Xiao Feng time to express her opinion.
Xiao Feng still didn't speak, which shows that he does not object to Xiao Chen's words, and it also shows that he does not approve of Xiao Yuli and Liang Naixin's marriage. Concubine Qing's face was a little unpleasant, she picked up the tea cup in front of her and tasted it slowly.
"Speaking of which, the concubine has a suitable candidate in her heart, if it is not suitable, please don't blame Your Majesty."
"Say it." Xiao Feng withdrew his fingers, his gaze swept over Xiao Chen, waiting for her words. If it is true, the person who knows his mind best in this harem is still Xiao Chen.
"The concubine accidentally saw Concubine Anshan's niece and granddaughter a few days ago, that is, Miss Qianlan, the beloved daughter of Li Zhengli, the waiter of the Ministry of Works. The concubine saw that Miss Li was also a famous lady of Zhong Lingyuxiu, and her age was more suitable for Li'er. ”
Hearing this name, Concubine Qing couldn't help frowning. Everyone in the court knows that the squire of the Ministry of Works, Lord Li, only bears the title of a squire out of thin air, and he can stay in the Ministry of Works for less than a few dozen days out of 365 days a year. His body is extremely weak, and Concubine Anshan has repeatedly given precious medicinal materials, but it is always not good. Maybe in another two or three years, this Master Li will die. What do they get by begging such sick in-laws? Obvious.
"Look at what my sister said is true," Concubine Qing first glanced at Xiao Yuli, and then looked at Xiao Feng with a coquettish smile, and said softly: "Li'er just saw that the prince and the princess were in love, and she was really envious in her heart before she said these nonsense words, don't take it seriously." Xiang Wan and Lu got married, it was not easy to see her every time, and the concubine also wanted Li'er to accompany the concubine for a while. ”
It's obviously a coquettish tone, but in fact it's secretly refusal. If these words were left to Xiao Chen, she would never dare to say them, but on Concubine Qing's body, it seemed that everything became reasonable.
"The queen still keeps an eye on it, and waits for Li'er and the queen to choose together." Xiao Feng's reply was ambiguous, and he did not refuse Xiao Chen's proposal or deny Concubine Qing's request.
"The concubine knows." Xiao Chen lowered his head and answered softly, quite deferentially.
"Father." Suddenly, a cool voice burst out, and Du Yunjin looked at the source, it was the person sitting opposite her who had not spoken. The pale white dark vine cloud pattern of the moonflower brocade, rolling gold thread lace, just by this dress, she also guessed that the identity of the person who spoke must be not low, and kept calling "father", that must be the favored prince. Inside and outside the palace, the most favored is Xiao Yuli, the king of Qing, followed by Xiao Chen's son, Xiao Shaokang, the king of Yu.
Xiao Shaokang is still young and has not yet been involved in the miscellaneous affairs of the struggle between the DPRK and China, so Xiao Feng is actually more spoiled by him. Sure enough, as soon as he spoke, Xiao Feng waved his hand to Huang Yuan, the chief waiter waiting beside him, "Why don't you hurry up and serve the food." ”
"Yes." Huang Yuan got the will, so he trotted all the way to the outside of the palace and personally supervised the serving.
Because of Xiao Shaokang's voice, the original stalemate atmosphere in the hall also dissipated a lot invisibly. Du Yunjin secretly looked at the opposite side when he was adding vegetables to Xiao Yu.
The little boy was shrouded in a white halo, and his face should not be inferior to that of the two brothers. He seemed to notice Du Yunjin's gaze, tilted his head lightly, and looked back at each other with a smile.
"What's wrong?" Du Yunjin didn't expect him to look back, and in a moment of panic, he accidentally bumped into the wine glass, causing Xiao Yu to frown.
"It's fine."
She put down her chopsticks in a daze, buried her head in her share of food, and therefore failed to notice the different thoughts of everyone in the temple.
