Shujie was stunned, it was normal for the emperor to see him, but why was he in Ma Guifei's palace? This is not like the emperor's style of doing things that his father-in-law and Mother Liu told him, if it was in the queen's Kunning Palace, it was still said in the past.

However, since Dafuzi's father-in-law came over in person, Shujie didn't have any suspicions, and hurriedly responded: "Yes, Shujie will go with his father-in-law." After saying goodbye, he said goodbye to Zhengran and the other three.

Dafuzi's father-in-law, who had been paying attention to Shujie's reaction, naturally did not miss Shujie's first reaction, and that flash of hesitation made Dafuzi sigh secretly: "The emperor has never missed it." ”

The Jardine Palace is close to the Imperial Garden and is a large courtyard with three entrances. The solemn red walls, carved beams and standing buildings, everywhere gorgeous, golden glazed tiles shine dazzlingly in the sun. Shujie heard Liu's mother say that Ma Guifei is a very particular person, her Yihe Palace has to be repainted and repaired every few years, and she doesn't need to pay money in the palace, she bears all the expenses herself, which is very arrogant.

Entering the heavy pear blossom wood gate, passing through an empty courtyard, is the pleasant hall of the guests, in front of the pleasant heart hall there are two Xifu begonias that are blooming luxuriantly, and the newly grown young leaves are clustered with four to seven huge flowers embellished with branches, like the dawn of the sky. When people approached, the fragrant wind gusted, and from time to time there were petals falling with the wind, like a rain of flowers.

After the little father-in-law who was guarding the door passed inside, Shujie followed the father-in-law of Dafuzi into the main hall, and saw the emperor sitting on the main seat in the middle and Ma Guifei in a golden palace dress, and hurriedly saluted and bowed: "Chen Xia Shujie knocks to see the emperor, knock to see the concubine Niangniang." ”

The emperor smiled and said: "Calm down, this is not in the council hall, don't be too restrained." ”

Ma Guifei also smiled lovingly: "Exactly." It's good to see ordinary elders. The first time I saw you three siblings, I felt kind. Come. Sit. ”

The palace maid who had been prepared for a long time quickly brought a rose chair upholstered with scarlet brocade covered in black lacquer, and Shujie thanked him again before sitting down.

The emperor casually asked Shujie about the situation when he went to Cining Palace to meet just now, and Shujie answered seriously.

"Shujie, Concubine Ma intends to be a matchmaker for you, she is a woman with good talent and good character, what do you think?" The emperor asked suddenly.

Shujie was stunned: "Your Majesty, the noble concubine, the minister has already decided on the family matter." ”

Ma Guifei laughed out loud: "Look at your nervous child." Of course, the emperor and the palace know that you are married. Isn't it normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines? Good things come in pairs, you are the champion of both civil and military disciplines, and then marry two beautiful wives with both good looks at the same time, isn't it beautiful? That girl is beautiful and generous, and she has been learning housekeeping since she was a child, which just complements the quiet and virtuous Nangong girl, and can also make you feel at ease to do things outside, right? ”

Dafuzi's father-in-law stood aside with his head half-hanged, and snorted in his heart: Guifei Niangniang's abacus is really good, and in one sentence, it is determined that Nangong Miao, the main wife, does not need to be housekeepers, but lets the flat wife who "enters the door at the same time" be the master of the house, who is the housewife?

Shujie hurriedly knelt down: "Return to the emperor and the concubine." I beg your pardon for not accepting God's grace. My father and mother once said that we brothers can only marry one wife. Thirty childless concubines. The late mother said she didn't want to see her daughter-in-law suffer again. ”

"......" Ma Guifei's smile froze on her face, how could this be? Before he said which girl it was, Xia Shujie refused? Thirty childless can you take a concubine? What man doesn't like three wives and four concubines, hugging left and right? What's more, the situation at this time is obviously that the emperor wants to give marriage, and Xia Shujie, who has just entered the official career, dares to refuse first? "You dare to resist?"

Shujie was stunned again, but still kowtowed firmly: "Please forgive the emperor, the minister cannot go against the wishes of his parents." ”

The emperor smiled: "Don't be so nervous, isn't this not an order yet?" It doesn't count as resistance. After speaking, he didn't look at Ma Guifei's ugly face, and continued to smile: "I promised your father-in-law that the family affairs of your three brothers and sisters are according to your own wishes, and I will not force them." ”

Shujie was overjoyed: "Thank you Emperor Longen, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" ”

The emperor waved his hand, and Shujie retired "acquaintance".

The emperor smiled happily: "Miss Nangong is really blessed!" Okay, don't be angry, concubine, marriage is destined by heaven, and the twisted melon is not sweet. Ling Er is so good, why should she be wronged and be a flat wife? Among the Jinke Wenwu Jinshi, there are many outstanding, handsome, and undecided, just pick one. is the pair of eyes, as well as the liberal arts and sciences, they are all unmarried, which one the concubine chooses, I will ask the queen mother to give them marriage. ”

Ma Guifei's smiling eyes at the emperor, there is no bottom in her heart, is the emperor waiting for this result? Otherwise, it is directly ordered. Even if Jin Xida was promised that "Xia Shujie's family affairs must be what he likes", isn't he already marrying Nangong Miao as he wishes, and then giving him a flat wife is the icing on the cake, where is the promise broken?

Bangyan, Tanhua, and outstanding new science and technology scholars are indeed good, but they can't bring Jin Xida, Weiyuan Marquis Mansion, and even Nangong Mansion all together under the banner of the second prince.

Is the emperor so indulgent with Xia Shujie in this matter just because of his promise to Jin Xida?

In the past two years, the emperor has spoken less and less to her, and her smile has become more and more, but Ma Guifei feels that it is becoming more and more difficult to see what the emperor is thinking, and it is even difficult to judge whether she is happy or angry.

Sighing lightly, Ma Guifei smiled and said: "It can only be like this, Luohua is ruthless with intention, and the concubine's father and brother and sister-in-law also cherish Ling Er too much, and they want everything to be as she wants." Now I can only attribute the reason for insisting on this family affair to my niece's amorous feelings, but fortunately, in my own Jardine Palace, no one dares to chew the root of my tongue.

The emperor nodded: "How else to say that you pity the hearts of parents in the world?" Ling'er is still young, where do you know anything about feelings? Set a good one for her, and after a while, she will forget who Xia Shujie is. Okay, concubine, today Jun Ao is going to the palace to visit his mother, and I summoned him to the imperial study to talk about things, and this is about to pass. Concubine Ai picks the right person and then tells me. ”

"Yes, Concubine Xie Emperor! Congratulations to the Emperor! Concubine Ma hurriedly got up and saluted.

As soon as the emperor's sedan chair came out of the Jardine Palace, Long Yan sank: he actually married his concubine as a flat wife, and the Ma family was really just too pampered and indulgent? That's too obvious, isn't it? Or do you think he, the emperor, is a fool?

The twists and turns that happened in the Yihe Palace soon spread to the Kunning Palace.

The queen snorted coldly: "The Ma family has been too smooth in the past few years, and they have been so obedient that they have gotten carried away." ”

The palace maid next to the queen, June, smiled: "Isn't it?" Even the Empress Dowager refused her request to give her niece and granddaughter a marriage, Ma Guifei was so smart that she couldn't even see such an obvious hint clearly, could it be that she thought that she was more trusted by the emperor than the Empress Dowager? ”

The queen shook her head: "It's not that she can't see clearly, but ...... It's still the same sentence, it's been so smooth these years! Go, spread the word about this, and Shujie's original words. Since they haven't said who they want to give as a flat wife, don't say it, in short, you don't need to add oil and vinegar, just pass it on truthfully, let people know that there is no need to stuff any flat wives and aunts into the Xia Mansion in the future, and let the Nangong family see the good of Shujie. ”

The queen really likes the three brothers and sisters of Shu Yao, since she took the longan jujube honey they offered, her skin has become fairer and more delicate, and her complexion is fine......

Thinking of the emperor's surprise and adoring eyes, the queen's ears burned.

June responded: "Yes, Niangniang helped Xia Zhuangyuan so much, they will definitely be grateful to Niangniang and the Four Princes." ”

The queen shook her head again: "Shujie is a smart person, he will only follow his father-in-law and be loyal to the emperor, not to mention that now if he finds a Yue's family, he only recognizes the emperor, and it is impossible for him to deviate." For such people, forcing them is a big mistake. If the fourth child really has that fate, he still needs such a person. ”

Another personal palace maid came in with a bowl of chicken soup and shark fin: "Niangniang, let's have some dim sum first, you haven't eaten much in the morning." ”

Before she could finish speaking, the queen turned to the side and began to retch.

June and July jumped, and June suddenly remembered that the queen's menstrual affairs this month had not yet come, and it seemed that almost half a month had passed.

Soon, Imperial Physician Xu was invited to Kunning Palace, and after carefully checking the pulse, Imperial Physician Xu hurriedly knelt down: "Congratulations to the queen mother, congratulations to the queen mother, you are pregnant with a dragon fetus, the fetus is very stable, as long as the mother pays a little attention, the humble position will come to the mother on time to ask for the pulse." ”

Imperial Doctor Xu felt that his luck this year was really good, last time Wei Yuan Hou greatly rewarded him, yesterday to Mrs. Wei Yuan Hou again pulse, can basically be sure that it is a girl, Hou Yele's face is full of teeth, a wave of his hand is a generous reward. This emperor is almost forty years old, and he can have a son and daughter, can he be happy? Hehe, what's going on this year? Those young concubines can't conceive it, but "old trees" like the queen and Mrs. Weiyuan are blooming one after another? They were all injured during childbirth before, and it was difficult to get pregnant again.

The queen opened her mouth half-open, she couldn't react for a long time, she was still envious of Yao Xuelan a while ago, but now she has it?

June took a group of palace maids and grandmothers to kneel down and laughed loudly: "Congratulations to Niangniang, congratulations to Niangniang!" ”

Only then did the queen come back to her senses and said excitedly: "Reward, there is a reward, when Mama Yu comes back, let her give everyone a reward immediately." In June, he sent Imperial Doctor Xu out of the palace for the palace. "Mama Yu is the chief steward of Kunning Palace, and today the empress went to the Zhongguo Mansion to visit the sick old lady.

June hurriedly responded, took a heavy purse handed over by July and stuffed it into the hands of Imperial Physician Xu: "Thank you Imperial Physician Xu, the slave maid sent you." ”

The queen was still sitting there smirking, and June walked in with Mama Yu, who happened to come back, and there was another way to congratulate and celebrate. The master and servant unanimously agreed that it must be the effect of the jar of honey, and it must be the blessing brought by the three brothers and sisters of Shu Yao. Shu Yao is a lucky star that Master Jingxuan personally identifies as a lucky star, isn't it? Shu Yao and the others came to the capital, and Yao Xuelan, who was determined by the imperial doctor to be difficult to get pregnant again, and she became pregnant before and after. (To be continued......)
