Chapter 37: No, I want five years
"Really?"
"Father, how dare you deceive you, if your father doesn't believe it, you can ask the emperor."
"It's enough for you to help me, choosing a concubine is also a major life event, you have to think about it, if Rui'er doesn't have a favorite candidate, even if you don't like it, you have to choose a concubine to come out, which can be regarded as an explanation to the regent."
Song Zhiyao said yes, I hope Song Jinrui can help herself.
But...... It's like some are dreaming.
It's good that Song Jinrui doesn't stab the knife in the back anymore, help yourself? Just kidding.
However, Song Jinghe has already regressed.
There is still a chance, but if you can't do it, you will choose to be elegant.
Anyway, the queen's people are always better.
Song Zhiyao was still racking her brains to find a way, and an uninvited guest came outside.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Xiang asks to see you."
"Oh?"
"Do you want Concubine Xiang to come in?"
"Please come in."
"Yes."
Concubine Xiang slowly walked in from the outside, and as soon as she came in, she saw Song Zhiyao standing aside, frowning, didn't she also come to ask to marry Lu Fang'er?
Just now, Song Jinrui came over to talk about the selection of concubines, and he took a fancy to Lu Fanger.
After careful consideration, I made up my mind that I could marry Lu Fang'er, after all, Lu Fang'er is the daughter of the prime minister, and now the prime minister is very close to the queen, but once he marries the prime minister's daughter, it will be different, everything must be thought twice, after all, the daughter is the sky.
This is also the reason why Concubine Xiang agreed to Song Jinrui, but Concubine Xiang never expected that she would meet Song Zhiyao here, could it be that Song Zhiyao had already told Song Jinghe about it in front of her?
That's not good, Lu Fang'er became Song Jinrui's concubine after all! In this way, we can help Song Jinrui on the road in the future, and we must not let Song Zhiyao take the lead.
Concubine Xiang twisted her body and walked in front of Song Jinghe; "The concubine has seen the emperor."
Song Jinghe nodded slightly; "Well, get up."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, I didn't expect the prince to be here, isn't it a little ...... for the concubine to come at this time?"
Concubine Xiang looked at Song Jinghe with some embarrassment.
Song Jinghe waved; "It's almost the same as the prince's matter, tell me, what are you looking for today?"
Concubine Xiang began to mumble in her heart, could it be that it was too late now?
No, you can't take the chance.
"Your Majesty, the concubine came here today to really have one thing to show to the emperor."
"Speak up and listen."
"Hasn't the regent been choosing concubines for the crown prince and Rui'er these days, no, Rui'er just told the concubine yesterday that she had taken a fancy to the prime minister's daughter, and the concubine thought that Rui'er was rare to open her mouth to express her intentions, and the concubine thought that this matter could be ......."
"It turned out to be for the matter of choosing a concubine, why did Rui'er fall in love with the prime minister's daughter, and didn't tell me, but wanted to tell you?"
"This, boy, is still a little embarrassed, so I told the concubine."
Song Zhiyao was about to laugh next to her, don't be too nice to me! The pillow delivered to the door, I really don't want to sleep.
Song Zhiyao's shoulders squirmed faintly.
Concubine Xiang saw with her spare eyes that the treacherous plan in her heart had succeeded, it seemed that Song Zhiyao really wanted to marry Lu Fang'er, otherwise, as soon as she said this, Song Zhiyao couldn't bear it anymore.
Concubine Xiang took the opportunity to continue; "Your Majesty, I don't know if I can promise a concubine in this matter?"
"Okay, since you have said it, then I will promise you this matter, personally set a marriage contract for the two, and find a good day to complete the marriage."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Thank you, father, for making it perfect."
Song Zhiyao clenched her fists beside her.
Fulfill?
Concubine Xiang was stunned for a moment, what did she accomplish?
Could it be that Song Zhiyao didn't want to marry Lu Fang'er!
"I don't know which girl the prince has a crush on? Can you tell the concubine? Concubine Xiang asked vaguely beside her.
Song Zhiyao is embarrassed to speak now, for fear that Concubine Xiang will faint directly.
Song Jinghe opened his mouth and said; "The prince didn't take a fancy to it, so he gave up on this matter, and chose a concubine for Rui'er, which is not bad, and it can be regarded as an explanation to the regent."
As soon as Song Jinghe's words were finished, Concubine Xiang looked at Song Zhiyao incredulously; "What does the emperor mean that the crown prince did not choose a concubine?"
"Well, I originally thought that if Rui'er didn't have a favorite concubine, he asked the prince to choose one to give to the regent anyway, but I didn't expect Rui'er to have someone he liked, but this is good, the best of both worlds, I can give the regent a business, and I can also choose a suitable concubine for Rui'er."
"This ......" Concubine Xiang's shoulders trembled angrily.
Song Zhiyao said with a hippie smile next to her; "Thank you Concubine Xiang for your success, and I will go to thank you another day."
Concubine Xiang's hand grabbed the handkerchief tightly, and wanted to slap Song Zhiyao in the face, but she couldn't do anything, so she could only smile forcefully; "It's okay, it's okay, I thought there would be someone the prince liked."
"Erchen just thinks that he is still young, and it can be too late to marry a wife, and this time there is no favorite candidate, so he can only live up to the regent's kindness."
"Okay, this matter is settled, Concubine Xiang, you go back and tell Rui'er the good news."
"Yes, concubine body remember."
"The minister will retire first."
"Let's go down."
Song Jinghe waved his hand, and Song Zhiyao turned around and left silently.
Concubine Xiang had an indescribable feeling in the same place, as if she was dumb and ate coptis, and she couldn't tell if she was bitter.
I can't tell the emperor about regretting my marriage, isn't this lifting a stone to shoot myself in the foot.
How could Concubine Xiang do such a thing.
Now he can only talk about it, and he is very happy in front of Song Jinghe.
Song Zhiyao couldn't be happier now, and when she walked out of the study, the smile on her face couldn't bear it.
Yang Qingdi could feel Song Zhiyao's happiness.
"Childe, are you so happy?"
Song Zhiyao laughed; "Don't you know how it feels like someone giving you a pillow when you want to sleep, it's not too cool, and now Concubine Xiang and Song Jinrui are probably going to be angry."
"But the son Song Jinrui married the daughter of the prime minister, which is not good for the son."
"Having said that, but ...... Who knows if Lu Fanger will be favored or not in the Prime Minister's Mansion? ”
Yang Qingdi shook his head; "The matter of the Prime Minister's Mansion is small and unclear, so I have to investigate it."
"It's okay, I'm free to choose this matter, let's go, let's go back."
"Yes."
Yang Qingdi felt that the current Song Zhiyao was becoming more and more unclear.
Shaking his head, he followed Song Zhiyao and left.
And at this time, Concubine Xiang returned to the dormitory and was furious!
Song Jinrui knelt on the ground and didn't dare to speak.
Concubine Xiang looked at her only son: "What kind of good things did you say, ah?" People have no plans to marry Lu Fang'er at all, you are fine, others want to sleep, you send pillows to others, people don't plan to choose a concubine at all! This time, you choose one of the concubines, how can you let others take a good look at it, how greedy the second prince is? For the sake of the prince's choice of concubines, he chose a concubine for himself? ”
Song Jinrui didn't know that things would turn out like this, and in the face of Concubine Xiang's beating and scolding, Song Jinrui knelt silently on the ground: "Mother, among these three people, the most capitalized and the most powerful is only Lu Fang'er, and the remaining two people can only be a burden even if they marry back, but who would have thought that he would not marry a wife!" He must be scheming about his sons, mother. ”
Concubine Xiang looked at Song Jinrui, how to say that he was also her own son, and this matter was also agreed by herself, and waved her hand; "Okay, get up, this matter can only be like this, you marry Lu Fang'er, you must keep Lu Fang'er's heart, so that you can hold the prime minister tightly in your hands, as long as you have the prime minister's piece of meat, the queen will drop a piece of meat out, no matter how you say it, it's not a loss."
"Yes, but mother, is this matter so difficult to do?"
"How can it be just like that, Song Zhiyao put a dish for us, we naturally want to return it, is it possible that we still think we are easy to bully? Let him be proud for a while now, and let him cry when the time comes! ”
"The mother is right."
"Didn't the prince choose a concubine this time, then we ...... like this" Concubine Xiang whispered in Song Jinrui's ear.
Song Jinrui's eyes began to shine, and he nodded frequently; "Son, remember."
"If you can't handle this matter...... Concubine Xiang's gaze swept over, and Song Jinrui felt that the temperature around her had dropped a lot.
"Don't worry, concubine, this matter will be handled properly, and there will be no accidents."
Concubine Xiang nodded with satisfaction; "Okay, it's not too early, you should go down and do things early."
"Yes."
"By the way, when the time comes, the marriage with you and Lu Fang'er will come down, you remember to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to have a better look, lest the Prime Minister's Mansion say that we don't understand the rules."
"Erchen knows."
"Let's go down."
Concubine Xiang waved her hand, and Song Jinrui left.
Concubine Xiang sighed; "What was Chu Yu doing during this time?"
"Qi Yu Niangniang, Princess Chuyu has been in the courtyard and has not gone out during this time."
"Oh? This is not Chu Yu's character, why didn't he go out for so long? ”
"But the palace maids in the Chuyu Palace are all saying that Princess Chuyu seems to have met the true destiny."
"What did you say?" The teacup in Concubine Xiang's hand fell to the ground in an instant
It rolled on the ground a few times with a crisp sound, and finally stopped at the feet of Concubine Xiang.
"The palace maids are saying that Princess Chuyu has met the true son of heaven, and I don't know if it's because of this reason that Princess Chuyu ......"
"Let's go, let's see."
Concubine Xiang's heart pinched, the big one had just finished solving the emotional problem, but the small one should not be in the initial problem, her little heart was a little unbearable.
Concubine Xiang walked over and looked at Song Chuyu lying on the table, looking weak.
"What's the matter, I haven't come to visit my mother for this time?"
Song Chuyu didn't expect Concubine Xiang to come over at this time, so she was frightened and got up from the table; "See the Princess."
"Tell me, what's going on in this time."
Concubine Xiang sat beside Song Chuyu unhurriedly and said.
Song Chuyu retracted and said with a smile; "Nothing happened, just embroidery in the yard."
Song Chuyu said and picked up the embroidery on the table and pretended to show it off a few times.
Concubine Xiang snatched Song Chuyu's embroidery; "The mother concubine also came from you at this time, don't you really know what you are thinking in your heart? Tell your mother what happened. ”
Song Chuyu's hands were empty, but his hands were still in the air.
Concubine Xiang waved her hand, and the people around her instantly retreated.
Song Chuyu and Concubine Xiang were left.
Concubine Xiang then took Song Chuyu's hand; "Now I can tell my mother what happened."
Song Chuyu's grievances during this time suddenly cried; "Mother, I'm so wronged."
Concubine Xiang quietly hugged Song Chuyu's body, patted her back, and said; "What the hell is going on, and tell the mother concubine slowly, the mother concubine will definitely make the decision for you."
Song Chuyu told Concubine Xiang about his acquaintance with Zeng Xiaofei.
When Concubine Xiang heard this, she frowned, and finally sighed.
"You said, Zeng Gongzi didn't want to recognize you, pretending not to know you."
Song Chuyu nodded: "Well, I can obviously recognize each other when I was in the Prince's Mansion, but I don't know why, he just refuses to recognize me, why, mother, why is this, is it because my identity and status are not enough?" ”
Song Chuyu looked at it, not to mention how aggrieved he was.
