"And the concubine?" Emperor Yongchang was so surprised that he could barely speak.

's own daughter, the proud daughter of the sky, has actually fallen to the day of "marrying" with others!

"The concubine thought about it, but she still felt that the situation of the concubine was the most suitable for Huan'er. Although she is from a noble background, she can't give birth, although we are a heavenly family, but we can't make it difficult for others to make people desperate. Therefore, by marrying with other women, this problem can be solved. Another wife can give birth to and raise children, and Huan'er can bring titles and glory to the family. - If Huan'er is willing to marry, there should be many people who are willing to marry her. In this way, His Majesty and his concubines can calmly choose a suitable family for Huan'er. "Wan Guifei is right, and it seems that she has been thinking about it for a long time.

Emperor Yongchang looked at her for a while, and did not reject her, but said slowly: "You are here to plan for Huan'er, if she appreciates it, it will be fine." If you don't want to, can you force her to marry? ”

Concubine Wan was stunned, "Why is she unwilling to marry?" - Aren't all women in the world going to get married? Those who say they don't marry are actually unable to marry. ”

Emperor Yongchang smiled and shook his head, "Huan'er is my daughter, not an ordinary daughter's family. If she doesn't want to get married, I can say that no one can force her. - Even if she wants to stay in her mother's house for the rest of her life, I have a royal family, and I can still afford to raise a princess. ”

Wan Guifei was dumbfounded, "How can this be done!" - Don't marry......"

Emperor Yongchang's eyes were a little disdainful, and a little alienated. sighed again, and the meaning of the rejoicing was overflowing. It seems that he has a regret that he can't communicate with Wan Guifei.

Wan Guifei suddenly couldn't say any more.

How did she forget?

Her daughter, Princess Qi Huanzhi, is not a daughter from a small family like her. Qi Huanzhi is the daughter of the founding emperor of Great Qi, if she doesn't want to get married, no one can force her.

Wan Guifei suddenly understood. She was wrong, wrong from the start. She used her own mentality to figure out her daughter and Emperor Yongchang. However, Emperor Yongchang is no longer Qi Boshi, the Duke of Qi of the Great Zhou Dynasty of the previous dynasty, he is the founding emperor of the Great Qi. 's own daughter is no longer the concubine of the Duke of Qi. It was the princess of the founding emperor of the Great Qi. She is the daughter of the noble concubine.

With such an identity and such a family, no one can force her to make any compromises on marriage unless she is willing.

Emperor Yongchang had already made his attitude clear just now. He would never force his daughter.

Wan Guifei was bitter in her heart. Rejoicing again. There is also a faint sense of loss and heart-wrenching pain.

Emperor Yongchang's alienated eyes, like a knife, stripped her dignity and grace bloodily. Let her see the unbearable hidden behind the pampering.

She was never the one who could stand side by side with him.

No matter how much she does and thinks about him, she will never be able to enter his world.

That world belongs to him and Ouyang Zi, and there are many high-ranking families.

Every time at this time, she hated Ouyang Zi even more.

It was her, as soon as she appeared, she made her gentleness and grace full of childishness, and smashed the tacit understanding between herself and His Majesty.

It's as if I've never understood His Majesty.

Wan Guifei looked at Emperor Yongchang's fading smile in a daze, and the fist in her hand clenched tighter and tighter, so tight that the slender nails she had raised for a long time were deeply cut into the palm of her hand. Only by using the pain could she keep herself from screaming.

"These things, you ask Huan'er what they mean, and then come to think of them." Emperor Yongchang smiled, with a little pride, and comforted Concubine Wan: "Don't worry too much about it. Whether to marry or not is something that ordinary people should consider, not the main thing that my Daqi Duke should consider. She is my princess, and in this life, she only needs to be rich and honorable. ”

Other women need to marry when they grow up, but his princess doesn't. If you want a man, raise a few faces in the palace, and are you afraid that others will gossip? If you don't succeed, if you become a female crown, you can still be happy for a lifetime.

Is it interesting to marry Lu to serve her in-laws, take care of the family business and concubines for the man, and bring him glory and wealth?

Emperor Yongchang himself is a man, and he understands men's thoughts very well.

What I don't understand is the stupid woman in front of me.

Emperor Yongchang looked at her with a faint smile.

Concubine Wan nodded slowly, as docile and considerate as ever, "Your Majesty is right. In this case, the concubine did not consider Huan'er's marriage for the time being. But what about Princess Pingle's marriage? Speaking of which, Princess Pingle is three years older than Huan'er. Huan'er is nineteen years old this year, and Princess Pingle is already twenty-two. ”

"Huh? Yan'er is twenty-two years old?! Emperor Yongchang was taken aback again, and paced back and forth in the palace with an anxious face, "Why are you so old?" How come I never knew the way?! "It seems that it was just overnight, and the little girl who was silent has grown into a big girl, no, she is already an old girl......

This question made even Wan Guifei speechless.

She lowered her head helplessly and let Emperor Yongchang taste it himself.

Emperor Yongchang came back to his senses and blamed himself: "...... My father, I am really incompetent. - In this way, let Huan'er's marriage go for a while, you quickly pick a candidate for me to choose a horse, and let me pick a good one. My only princess in Daqi, she must marry beautifully! ”

Wan Guifei responded with a smile, took a plate of pomegranates, split them with a small silver knife, picked out the pomegranates inside, fed them to Emperor Yongchang's mouth one by one, and said casually with a smile: "Has Your Majesty been busy lately?" There is no one to be seen. ”

Emperor Yongchang lay leisurely on the Hu bed, and smiled and pulled a handful of Wan Guifei's shawl.

Wan Guifei fell into the arms of Emperor Yongchang and let him rub it.

"It's ok. In the morning, the Marquis of Zhu entered the palace and asked for an order to go out to do business. I saw that he was really idle and panicked, so I was right. - Alas, I'm a dignified prince of the country, and I actually have to deal with the rats, which is really suffocating him. Although the voice is regrettable, there is also a little joy.

Wan Guifei smiled and said: "No matter how powerful the Marquis of Zhu Guo is, he has to be used by His Majesty." Your Majesty doesn't need him. Even if he has the talent to help the world, he can only be idle at home and moldy. ”

"The same cannot be said. People who have the ability are always a little temperamental. There are so many courtiers in the palace who don't have the ability, anyone can make me happy, why bother to tease those who have the ability? Emperor Yongchang opened his mouth and ate another pomegranate seed.

Wan Guifei brought the saucer over and gave it to Emperor Yongchang and the pomegranate kernel he spit out.

Listening to this tone, I still have more trust in Xiao Shiji......

Wan Guifei turned her head, pursed her lips when Emperor Yongchang couldn't see her face, and when she turned around and took the pomegranate seeds, she had already changed her smile on her face. Said: "Your Majesty is Shengming." This is a capable person. It's not just the Marquis of Zhu. General Yunlu, who guards Jiangling, I heard that it is no worse than our empire. ”

Speaking of Yunlu General Xiao Miao, Emperor Yongchang's face was very ugly, and he said in a muffled voice: "He." It's too much. I have a decree to proclaim. He dared to disrespect the will! ”

Wan Guifei's heart is coming. Put down the plate in his hand, and said softly: "Your Majesty was still sympathetic to the Marquis of Zhu just now, why didn't you sympathize with General Yunlu?" - Summoned by His Majesty. How dare he not come? But he didn't come. Isn't there something strange about this? Your Majesty, do you want to send a trustworthy person to Jiangnan to have a look and see what is going on? It's better than guessing here, Your Majesty, don't you? ”

Emperor Yongchang glanced at Concubine Wan Guifei, smiled, stroked her hair, and said, "How did Concubine Ai become smart today?" - That's right, let's guess here, whether it's chilling the hearts of those heroes, or send someone to Jiangnan to have a look. ”

Concubine Wan Guifei took the opportunity to say: "Your Majesty's palace Liu Nei's servant has always been loyal to His Majesty, why don't you send him to take a look?" "Liu Neishou is Wan Guifei's person.

Emperor Yongchang immediately responded, announced that Liu Neishou came over, and ordered: "You go to Jiangling on behalf of me to see General Yunlu, and say that I miss him, see when he will go to Beijing." You can come back with him. ”

Liu Neishou responded with a smile and led the order out of the palace to Jiangnan.

Emperor Yongchang also stood up and said, "I still have something to do, so I'll go first." Before leaving, he instructed Wan Guifei, "Yan'er's marriage, you can't delay it any longer, you must choose carefully, and after the last time, I will show the list to me, and I will personally choose a good marriage for Yan'er." ”

Concubine Wan responded with a smile and sent Emperor Yongchang out of her bedroom.

……

Xiao Shiji returned to the Zhuguo Marquis Mansion from the palace and immediately said to Du Hengshuang: "Your Majesty has approved my request. I'll order all the people and leave in the afternoon. ”

"In such a hurry?" Du Hengshuang was very reluctant, "Can't you leave tomorrow?" ”

Xiao Shiji touched her stomach and said with a smile: "Go early and come back early." I want to settle this matter sooner, otherwise I will always be in a panic. ”

Du Hengshuang knew that Xiao Shiji was for her and the child in her belly, and of course for his mother's heart disease......

"Well, be careful yourself. Along the way, bring more people. Although there are paintings over there, they don't all listen to the big masters. You have to act on the opportunistic side and be extra careful. Du Hengshuang was reluctant to give up Xiao Shiji's things in person.

Xiao Shiji hurriedly stopped her, "Don't be busy, be careful of the child in your belly." I'll just clean it up. ”

Du Hengshuang sat down next to him, supported himself with his hand, looked at Xiao Shihe and packed up his baggage, and said, "Be careful, there is also a painting." Regardless of whether you can succeed in recruiting An, you must ensure that you do not hurt Zhihua's life. She also has a child in her belly. ”

Xiao Shiji nodded, "Zhilu said, I will be careful." Even if it doesn't work, I can save Zhihua back. Turning around and seeing Du Hengshuang's worried face, Xiao Shiji walked over with a smile and stroked her cheek, and said gently: "Don't think about it, there must be nothing wrong." Last time, in fact, I had already told the big bosses about the same, but I just had to find a suitable time for them to go down the mountain. - I can't wait now, I hope the big boss can give me a favor. ”

"It's not good to owe favors." Du Hengshuang shook his head with a smile.

"Of course it won't be in vain. If he goes down the mountain now, maybe a great fortune awaits him soon. Xiao Shiji smiled and didn't say much.

Du Hengshuang saw that Xiao Shiji seemed to have made up his mind, and he didn't ask any more, sent him out of the room, and watched him leave.

After Xiao Shiji left, Du Hengshuang only said that he wanted to raise a baby, and he closed the door at home, and no one was seen.

Long Xiangye has been stable during this time, but he keeps picking up Xiao Tai and going to his uncle's house, which is also his father-in-law's house.

Xiao Taiji didn't know what to do, but seeing the mysterious appearance of Long Xiangye, he still picked a day when business was not busy, and went there in person.

sat at Long Xiangye's brother Long Wenping's house for a while. As soon as I took a few sips of tea, someone outside came in and talked back.

Long Wenping stood up and said, "Brother Tai, someone wants to see you, come in with me." As he spoke, he took Xiao Taiji to a side room, and guarded it outside himself, not letting people approach.

Xiao Taiji walked into the house and saw a pale, handsome and polite man sitting there.

Xiao Taiji's heart sank. This person is Choi Saburo. He recognized him as he looked. His sister-in-law Du Hengshuang shot Cui Sanlang's arm off, in order to apologize to the Cui family. The Xiao family specially booked a table of banquets. It was Xiao Tai and someone who sent it over.

That day, he mixed in with the chef who delivered food in the Zhuangyuan Building, and watched this polite man kick over the table full of wine and food, which was very domineering......

“…… Here comes Lady Choi. What are the commands? Xiao Tai bowed his hand. He knew that Cui Saburo's arm was no longer useful. So I'm not very afraid of him.

Cui Saburo looked Xiao Taiji up and down. nodded and said, "You are Xiao Taiji?" - Sit, it's like your eldest brother. ”

Xiao Taiji smiled, "My eldest brother was born much taller and stronger than me. Lord Cui's words are really false. ”

"Alright, let's stop talking nonsense. I'm here today to make a deal with you. Cui Saburo said lazily, and even saved the politeness.

Although Xiao Taiji was unhappy in his heart, he didn't come out, and asked in a deep voice, "What deal?" - I, Xiao Tai and others, are soft-spoken, not even an official body, and have no money left at home, so it is difficult for Your Excellency to take any advantage. ”

Cui Saburo glanced at him, "Aren't you and your eldest brother brothers?" ”

"Exactly."

"Then the Xiao family's property, there is always half of yours?"

Xiao Taihe laughed silently, "Dare to let Master Cui know that our Xiao family has long been separated." ”

"Oh?" Cui Saburo didn't seem to know about it, and muttered: "How much wealth do you get?" ”

"Why am I telling you? - Master Cui, if you have something to say, if you are interested in my Xiao family's wealth, you have found the wrong person. It's better to go to my eldest brother. ”

Cui Saburo touched his chin and looked at Xiao Taiji thoughtfully, "Your eldest brother is not in Chang'an." Where did he go? ”

"You ask me, who do I ask? - My eldest brother is not my son, where is he going, do you want to report to me? Xiao Taiji became more and more unkind to Cui Saburo, and he was really deserved by Cui Saburo's attitude.

looks like he's on top, and it doesn't look like he wants to cooperate with him at all.

Cui Sanlang paused, nodded slowly and apologized, "It's mine, isn't it, Brother Xiao don't be surprised......"

Xiao Taiji sneered and said, "Master Cui, I also understand what you mean. I have only one sentence - no way. So saying, he turned around and walked to the door, knocked on the tightly closed side door, and said, "Let me go!" ”

Long Wenping, who was guarding outside, came over and opened the door, and asked with a smile, "It's all negotiated?" ”

Xiao Taiji shook his head, "Father-in-law, don't look for me in the future for this kind of thing." - I am a member of the Xiao family, and I don't know how to eat inside and out! With that, he left the Long family angrily.

Cui Saburo sat quietly in the wing, exhaled a long breath, and said, "This path doesn't seem to work." ”

He had already said that they didn't have enough benefits to tempt Xiao Tai and cooperate with them, and it was just useless to come and talk.

Helplessly, the old lady of their Cui family's big house tried his best to let him try, insisting that Xiao Taiji was the weakness of the Xiao family. As long as you grasp him, you can do things in secret.

Of course, Cui Sanlang knew that if there was an internal response, the Xiao family would be self-defeating.

At that time, not only Du Hengshuang, but even Xiao Shiji will be killed by them without a place to bury.

Thinking about it, it was easier to do this, so he came anyway.

As a result, Xiao Taiji was not as easy to break as the old lady of the Cui family's big house said.

Cui Saburo sneered, feeling that since he had broken his arm, it seemed that his brain was not enough.

Returning to the Cui family's three-room house, Cui Saburo passed on the situation of today's meeting to the Cui family's big house.

Soon the news reached the crown princess.

"Xiao Taiji actually refused to cooperate with us." The crown princess sneered and said secretly in her heart, want to get out? It's not that easy, let's see if Guan Yunlian agrees......

A few days later, when Xiao Taiji went to the shop outside, he received a letter from a beggar.

There is only one sentence written on it: "Some people know how Guan Yunlian died." - You want to get rid of it, it's not so easy to ......"
