Chapter VII Candidate for Horsemanship
At night, the emperor rested in Concubine Jia's bedroom, after all, she had just punished Fenglin, and Concubine Jiagui was dissatisfied with the emperor, but she didn't dare to make a mistake.
"Your Majesty, I don't know if the concubine should talk about something?" Concubine Jia suddenly spoke, looking at the emperor lying beside her, with a tender and sweet face.
"Say something when you have something."
Concubine Jia put one hand on the emperor's chest and stroked it, and said in a coquettish voice: "A few days ago, the concubine suddenly remembered that the princess had reached the age of leaving the cabinet at this time, should the emperor consider finding a suitable horse for the princess?" ”
"What Concubine Ai said, I also thought about it, but then it was dismissed, and the matter was delayed." The emperor said with a solemn face, it was a matter of Qiluo, and he had to think carefully.
Regarding the matter of Feng Yu and Li Chengdong, Concubine Jia Guifei has already heard about it, and many people know that Feng Yu likes Li Chengdong, but they didn't expect that day in the palace, Feng Yu actually refused the emperor's marriage.
"The princess's noble body naturally has to be matched with the best man in the world, who must have both identity and talent."
After all, having been by the emperor's side for so long, Concubine Jia knew that what to say would make him happy and make her plan come true.
Sure enough, the emperor's eyes showed joy, he looked sideways at Concubine Jia, and said, "What Concubine Ai said is the same as what I think. ”
Concubine Jia looked at the emperor with a smile and said softly: "That's natural, the concubines are dedicated to the emperor's sake, and the affairs of the court can't help, but the affairs of the harem can still be helped." ”
"Then I don't know if there is a suitable candidate in the heart of the concubine?"
The emperor also knew that Concubine Jia suddenly mentioned this matter, she must have an idea in her heart, otherwise she would not have mentioned it for no reason at this time.
Concubine Jia showed a triumphant smile, pretended to think for a while, and said, "The concubine thinks that Shangguan Yunrui, the son of the King of Dian, is good. ”
"Shangguan Yunrui has a noble status, and he is also good-looking, the princess will definitely like it when she sees it."
After Concubine Jia finished speaking, the emperor did not answer immediately, he was silent for a while, shook his head and said, "Shangguan Yunrui is not suitable. ”
"How is it not appropriate?" Concubine Jia was anxious for a while, and when she saw that the emperor's face had changed, she immediately returned to her gentle and demure appearance.
"The emperor has already taken good care of Shangguan Yunrui, if the princess is promised to him, the people who come to Shangguan's family will definitely be very grateful to the emperor in their hearts."
"Second, Shangguan Yunrui is ......"
Concubine Jia said a series of benefits, and the words were sincere, as if she was thinking about Fengyu wholeheartedly.
While Concubine Jia was speaking, the emperor did not say anything, nor did he stop her, and listened quietly to her words.
"What the concubine said, what does the emperor think?"
The emperor glanced at Concubine Jia, was silent and did not speak, how could he not know Concubine Jia's thoughts.
In the emperor's opinion, Feng Yu's marriage is a major event, and the person chosen must be the best man in the world.
Xiao Yan, who can write and martial arts, has insight and talent, is the best candidate for the horse.
I just don't know what Qiluo thinks in her heart, and I don't know if she has affection for Xiao Yan?
On that day, I saw the two of them, one painting and the other writing poetry, which was really a perfect match.
Moreover, Xiao Yan holds the military power, if the princess marries him, it can be regarded as stabilizing the country.
Thinking of this, and thinking of what Concubine Fang Caijia said, the emperor had already made up his mind, he wanted to match Qiluo and Xiao Yan.
"As for the horse, I already have a candidate in my heart, so I don't need to worry about it."
Concubine Jia was stunned for a moment, smiled reluctantly, and asked, "Is it?" I don't know who is so blessed to be able to enter the eyes of the emperor? ”
Naturally, the emperor would not tell her what he wanted, but said: "Although there is a candidate in my heart, it has not yet been made public." ”
At this point, Concubine Jia had no choice but to say: "Since she is the person the emperor likes, she must be the best, so Concubine Cheng will not ask any more." ”
And so the matter of the colt passed.
The next day, Feng Yu was summoned by the emperor, and when she dressed up and came to the imperial garden, she found that Xiao Yan was actually there.
"Erchen has seen his father." Feng Yu saluted.
"Get up quickly, no need to be polite."
"Thank you, Father."
Feng Yu got up and stood still, and Xiao Yan next to her hugged her fists and said, "The minister has seen the princess." ”
"The general doesn't have to be polite."
"Princess Xie."
Xiao Yan straightened up and looked at Feng Yu, only to see a smile on Feng Yu's beautiful face, and she was a little distracted for a while.
"I don't know what happened to my father's son?"
Feng Yu's voice sounded, Xiao Yan immediately came back to his senses, secretly scolded himself in his heart, and then followed to look at the emperor.
"Sit down." The emperor looked at Feng Yu with a smile, then looked at Xiao Yan and said, "The general should also sit down, don't talk about state affairs today, you don't have to be too formal." ”
"Your Majesty."
Xiao Yan sat opposite Fengyu, but he didn't dare to look at her anymore, and straightened his body to look at the emperor.
"Kira, is the wound on your head okay? Does it hurt anymore? ”
After all, it was a father and daughter, and the emperor was always worried about the wound on Feng Yu's forehead, and he was deeply impressed by the appearance of bleeding that day.
"Thank you for your concern, the imperial doctor said that the injury is recovering well when he changed the dressing today, although it will occasionally hurt a little, but it is not in the way."
In fact, Feng Yu's head didn't hurt at all, she didn't want the emperor to forget what Feng Lin did to her, it could be regarded as a disguised punishment.
"That's good, that's good." The emperor breathed a sigh of relief, but he thought of Feng Lin again, and hated iron and steel: "Your second brother actually hurt you for the sake of the wind and dust woman, it's really infuriating." ”
Seeing that the emperor was angry, Feng Yu was a little happy in her heart, but she was also worried, "My father has punished my second brother, so don't think about it anymore, it's not good to be angry." ”
"Okay, well, my father doesn't want to, I don't want to." The emperor smiled with relief and patted Feng Yu's hand, and suddenly glanced at Xiao Yan and said, "Calling the general here today is actually a matter of trouble. ”
Hearing the emperor's words, Xiao Yan immediately got up and knelt on the ground, bowed his head and said respectfully: "The minister doesn't dare to take it, the emperor has something to order, and the minister must do his best." ”
"General, please get up quickly, I have already said that I will not talk about state affairs today, and the general does not have to be like this, sit down."
Xiao Yan obediently stood up, sat back in his place, and looked at the emperor with a serious face.
"Kira has been delicate since she was a child, and now she is not getting any better. I wondered if I could let the general teach her some self-defense techniques, firstly, to strengthen her body, and secondly, to avoid being bullied in the future. ”
Xiao Yan's face became a little solemn, he was silent for a while, and then turned his head to look at Feng Yu, "This matter still needs the princess's consent." ”
Of course, Fengyu is happy, first, as the emperor said, she can strengthen her body and prevent danger.
Second, she also wanted to take this opportunity to have more dealings with Xiao Yan, so that she would have a helper by her side to deal with the vassal king in the future.
"I agree."
Feng Yu looked at Xiao Yan with a smile, and said in a mischievous tone: "I don't have any foundation in martial arts, so I can ask the general to bother in the future." ”
"The princess is serious, and the minister must go all out."
Although Xiao Yan had no waves on the surface, he was actually very happy in his heart.
"It's better to choose a day than to hit the day, let's start today." Feng Yu looked at Xiao Yan and said, "I don't know what the general thinks?" ”
Xiao Yan's eyes darkened, "The minister listens to the princess's orders." ”
So, Feng Yu and Xiao Yan left the imperial garden under the watchful eye of the emperor.
