Chapter Twenty-Seven: News from the East Palace

The news that the prince is going to choose a concubine spread all over the government and the opposition within a day, but it is different from the past, but this time the nobles are holding a wait-and-see attitude, although on the surface, the queen and the prince are in harmony, but who knows what is inside? Not to mention Jia Nanfeng's moodiness, in case she gives birth to a sister-in-law a day later, the current crown prince is afraid that it will be difficult to have a good end, and at that time, the daughter who was selected as the crown princess will be difficult to protect herself.

When Yang Xianrong learned the news, he was playing with Liu Ling in the Liu Mansion, and the mothers-in-law in the mansion chewed their tongues, and they could always spit on the stars and say for a while, for the wedding of His Royal Highness the Prince, they also counted the daughters of the nobles of the appropriate age in Luoyang City, and excitedly bet to see whose daughter could fly on the royal branch. They couldn't understand the situation in the court and the palace, they only knew that what was waiting for the crown princess within the high walls was a luxurious life and supreme power, how tempting it sounded.

"My mother said that Brother Ma Yu is married, so he can't come out to play with us, he always has to accompany his mother, and then give birth to a child, and his child will be the prince in the future." Yang Xianrong felt a little regretful, she was a little reluctant to get along for so long, but she could count it with her fingers, since the last time they met and broke up, they haven't seen each other for a long time, maybe they won't see each other in the future. "My mother said that the prince is different from us after all, and it is impossible to play together and become friends."

Liu Ling sat silently to the side, neither answering the words of the sheep and making any reaction to her words.

"Sister Ling, what's wrong with you?" Yang Xianrong moved to Liu Ling's side: "Aren't you happy?" You don't want Brother Ma Yu to get married? ”

"Hopefully." Liu Ling said sullenly: "When people grow up, they have to get married." ”

"Then why aren't you happy?" Yang Xianrong leaned her face in front of Liu Ling and looked at it carefully, her eyes were dull, and the corners of her mouth did not have a good-looking arc that curved upwards as usual, which was obviously unhappy.

"It's nothing, I'm just angry why I didn't give birth a few years earlier." Liu Ling said: "I'm also a noble family, right?" ”

"Huh?" Yang Xianrong didn't understand what Liu Ling meant.

"Well, you're still young." Liu Ling touched Yang Xianrong's head, and finally smiled: "I don't know what kind of family Xiao Rong'er will marry in the future?" Her eyes flickered, and her smile bloomed even more: "Why don't you marry my brother Yao?" You see that my brother Yao is good at kung fu and studies hard, his father and eldest brother admire him very much, and when he grows up, he must be a big hero who does not lose to his father. ”

Yang Xianrong looked at Liu Ling with blinked eyes, thought about it, and quickly shook her head, she didn't know whether she was heroic or not, but she remembered that she promised her mother that she would always accompany her in the future, so that she couldn't run away with others.

"Why?" Liu Ling asked curiously, "Don't you like Brother Yao?" It's embarrassing that Brother Yao has to ask you two sentences every time he writes a letter to me, but he cares very much. ”

"However, every time Brother Yang Ting comes back from sending a letter to his family, he will ask me." Yang Xianrong felt that this should be, they were all brothers, greeting his sister was supposed to be, not to mention that his second brother asked her more than two words every time, sometimes the mother had to read it for a long time, and her mother had already said that brothers and sisters should love each other, and her brothers would rely on her in the future.

Hearing this, Liu Ling glanced at him: "How can this be confused?" My brother's surname is Yang? Is he really your brother? Seeing that Yang Xianrong still didn't understand, she sighed, waved her hand and turned around and walked away alone. Yang Xianrong was stunned in place, tilted her head and thought for a long time, and suddenly realized, she jumped up and down to catch up with Liu Ling, took her hand, and said while drithing: "Sister Ling'er, you want to marry Brother Ma Yu, right?" ”

Liu Ling's face quickly turned red when she heard this, and she covered Yang Xianrong's mouth: "Don't talk nonsense." At such a young age, what do you know? After that, he let go of his hand, took the sheep and sat down on the side, and sighed: "However, I am also too young. ”

"But why do you want to marry her?" Yang Xianrong didn't understand, and Liu Ling had only seen Sima Shu once.

"I was burned that time, and he helped me apply the medicine, and when the sergeant rushed in later, he was so imposing." Liu Ling recalled that day, and his eyes lit up: "I wanted to marry him from that day, but I also knew that it was unlikely, so I was a little unhappy." ”

Yang Xianrong obviously couldn't understand why Liu Ling had such a strange feeling, but she felt that since her sister wanted to marry Brother Ma Yu, she had the responsibility to let Brother Ma Yu know, and the next time she saw him, she must tell him and let him marry Sister Ling, and now that Sister Ling is still young, then ask him to wait.

Yang Xianrong, who returned home, couldn't wait to share this matter with Sun, but Sun couldn't stand up with a smile, she took Yang Xianrong into her arms, kissed her little cheek, and said, "At your age, do you want to do the work of the matchmaker?" ”

"What is a matchmaker?" Yang Xianrong asked.

"It's the one who matches a man and a woman." Sun said: "Do you think you look like a little matchmaker?" ”

Yang Xianrong was happy, and asked after him, "Then can I do it?" ”

"Fool," Sun nodded his nose, "What kind of person is the prince?" That's the emperor's son, his marriage is not a trivial matter, there are many things to worry about, besides, it's not up to him. ”

"Who's in charge?" Yang Xianrong continued to ask.

Sun also replied patiently: "If it is an ordinary family, it is naturally the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker." If it is the crown prince, it will be complicated, and it is necessary to select the appropriate one from among the women of the official family, and to choose the main concubine and the side concubine, of course, it is the emperor and queen who make the final decision. ”

"Oh," Yang Xianrong understood: "Then Sister Ling'er is hopeless." However, she instantly became happy again: "Then do I have to have my father and mother to decide when I get married?" Then I don't have to marry Brother Yao? ”

Sun frowned, she didn't understand what Yang Xianrong could sing, and after Yang Xianrong seriously conveyed Liu Ling's words to Sun, she laughed again.

"Then do you like Brother Yao?" Sun asked.

"I like it." Yang Xianrong replied: "Brother Yao is a good person, and Sister Ling said that he will be a big hero in the future." Mother, doesn't the second brother also want to be a big hero? ”

"Then you still don't want to marry him? How many women in this world want to marry a big hero? Sun asked deliberately.

Yang Xianrong put away his smiling face and said seriously: "No, I promised my mother that I would always accompany my mother." ”

"Fool." Sun pinched Yang Xianrong's face, and admonished: "Don't say these words outside, girls' families, say them to make people laugh." ”

"If you can't say anything outside, tell your father." Yang Xuanzhi paced in from the outside as he spoke, he sat down on the couch and said: "There are rumors outside that Jiafu wants to marry Han Shou's daughter to the prince, if this is the case, it can be seen that Jiafu really wants to win over the prince, so that the prince's position will be stable." ”

Han Shou is Jia Nanfeng's brother-in-law, and he has a son under his knees, who is Jia Mi who passed on to Jiafu. The daughter is the same age as the prince, and Jia's mother intends to match the two, the purpose is naturally to consolidate the position of the Jia family, after all, Empress Jia has no children, and she will always support the prince in the future.

"How?" Yang Xuanzhi was a little proud: "Your father and brothers are worried about the prince, but the Jia family is interested in wooing the prince, the prince is the prince after all, the emperor's blood and bones, and the hope of the future of my Jin Dynasty, which is to say that it will collapse?" He turned his face to the sheep and offered his face: "My Rong'er's wealth in the future is also determined by heaven." ”

Sun's good mood disappeared with Yang Xuanzhi's words, she looked at Yang Xianrong worriedly, and sighed deeply: "If you really enter the deep palace and get along with the Jia family day and night, I would rather she have a fate with the Liu family." ”

"The Liu family?" Yang Xuanzhi's face immediately changed: "The woman's opinion! A Huns, no matter how capable he is, he can't get into the eyes of the court, if one day the court changes its face and expells him, what do you let Rong'er do? ”

"I don't want her to go to the palace and suffer that sin." Sun said, it is rare for her to have such a tough attitude, which made Yang Xuanzhi a little surprised, "When you enter the palace, there will be no future, at that time, what will you do with Rong'er?" Sun continued, his voice raised with anger: "Is Empress Jia a good person? That Han Shou's daughter heard that she has been pampered since she was a child, and she is also a powerful character, you let Rong'er bow low and be small, how can she have a better life? My daughter is the meat that fell from my body, and you don't want to use the name of being good for her to round your wishful thinking. ”

"What's that your name?" Yang Xuanzhi also got angry: "Isn't she my daughter?" Since she is the daughter of my Yangfu, she has the responsibility to contribute to my Yangfu. Yang Xuanzhi snorted twice: "I don't want to be like this, it's not because the two sons you gave birth to are useless." ”

Sun said unceremoniously: "It's your business to revitalize the Yang family, you don't have the ability, don't blame the children." ”

"You ......" Yang Xuanzhi's mind was said so openly by Sun, he was ashamed and annoyed, and left angrily with the sentence "The affairs of the Yang family are not your turn to decide".

Yang Xianrong was frightened by the quarrel of her parents, she stood aside timidly, although she didn't quite understand what the two were arguing about, but the word "Rong'er" in their words came and went to let her know that they were because she was arguing, naturally, the person she trusted the most was her mother, although her father had treated her well recently, but since she was a child, she knew that her mother was the person she could rely on the most.

Yang Xianrong walked into her mother's arms, saw tears on her cheeks, hurriedly wiped them with her hands, and whispered: "Mother, Rong'er will not go anywhere in the future, so she will accompany her mother." ”

"Okay," Sun hugged the sheep tightly: "Rong'er won't go anywhere, mother protects Rong'er." ”
