Chapter 120: There is someone you like
Concubine Hui looked at Dongling Yan's clear eyes, but she felt extremely cold. If it weren't for the fact that they were mother and son who depended on each other, I am afraid that even Concubine Hui herself might be afraid of Dongling Yan.
Most of the time, Chu Nanxin is just a chess piece, and he will be discarded when he runs out. It is far less useful than Chu Nanyue's resourcefulness and calculation.
"If Chu Nanxin gives birth to an heir,...... Concubine Hui asked.
You must know that now the emperor is still in good health, the position of the crown prince is vacant, and the three princes are competing with each other. No one knows when they will be able to get the crown prince, let alone the throne.
When Dongling Yan got the throne and wanted to choose another woman as the queen, he was only afraid of this Chu Nanxin...... Maybe they gave birth to a boy and a girl. Won't the problem be complicated then?
"Go to the mother and keep the child." Donglin Yan said indifferently.
Such a sentence, he simply said. It's as if the mouth is not talking about a human life, but discussing things such as eating and drinking.
And Concubine Hui didn't feel afraid, but was relieved: "Yan'er, do you know how strong you are than your brothers?" ”
Without waiting for Dongling Yan to answer, Concubine Hui said to herself: "You don't have the kindness of a woman, and you can only achieve great things if you are ruthless like this." ”
Concubine Hui's teaching to Dongling Yan is ambitious and ruthless, and she is more qualified to sit on the throne than those who are bound by various emotions.
In the Imperial Study.
Because of Donglinyan's marriage, the festive atmosphere has not yet dissipated. And the emperor also had a smile on his face, much gentler than usual.
Even if it is a side concubine, it will help the royal heirs to continue, and for the emperor, who has very few sons, it can be said that it is his great wish to hold his grandson as soon as possible.
There are even rumors among the people that if the prince who can be the first to branch out for the royal family, he has a better chance of becoming a candidate for the crown prince.
"The last general will see the emperor. Congratulations to the Emperor. Chu Nanyue said respectfully.
"General Chu, please get up." The Emperor raised his hand.
He glanced at Chu Nanyue before he said casually: "I heard from my subordinates that General Chu just met Princess Qi?" ”
"King Qi and Princess Qi went to meet the queen, and they happened to meet the last general, so they chatted a few words." Chu Nanyue said.
"Hmm." The emperor took a sip of tea before he said slowly, "I really know that you and the Chu family are at odds now, but in the end, she has married into the Qi Palace." You and her are sisters, so give her a little bit of thin noodles on weekdays. ”
Chu Nanyue knew that the emperor was not talking about the contradiction between her and the Chu family, but that Chu Nanxin now represented the dignity of the royal family.
If she quarrels with Chu Nanxin, the emperor may not know who she will help in order to maintain the dignity of the royal family. Now I explained it early, but it is to make less trouble in the future, so as not to be embarrassed.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for reminding me, and the last general should keep it in mind." Chu Nanyue said.
And the emperor listened to Chu Nanyue's gentle attitude, and he was also relieved. first discussed the matter of the martial arts examination with Chu Nanyue, and unconsciously, he talked back to Chu Nanyue.
"General Chu, since you and Princess Qi are twin sisters, Princess Qi is already married. And you're not too young, but do you plan to get married? The Emperor laughed.
Chu Nanyue noticed that the emperor had a tendency to be old again, and couldn't help but feel a headache.
In the previous palace banquets, although the emperor also mentioned it in passing, it was far less formal than it is now. In addition, on top of the banquet, the planning is staggered, and it is easy for me to be perfunctory and take the words.
But now in private, the emperor specially proposed it, and she didn't refuse as much as before.
The face of the Son of Heaven must be sufficient.
"The emperor cares so much about the last general, and the last general is honored and grateful. It's just that the last general is still young, and he hopes to share more worries for the emperor. I haven't thought about marriage yet. Chu Nanyue said euphemistically.
The emperor shook his head: "You are young, and that is just a good time." If I restrain you for the sake of the government, it will delay you. What's more, even if he gets married, General Chu can still be a minister in the court. And it doesn't delay anything. ”
Just like the eldest princess of Xunyang, after marrying the concubine, she did not immediately retreat from the court.
Besides, if the eldest princess had never been married back then, how could she have a glorious picture of today's children and grandchildren.
Chu Nanyue heard the emperor's words come to this, but there was really no reason to shirk again.
Chu Nanyue pondered for a moment before saying, "What the emperor said is reasonable. However, the last general was worried about other things. The last general has been wearing male clothes since he was a child, and he has invisibly had the habits of a man, and his personality is different from that of other ladies. His Majesty wants to be a matchmaker for the last general, but the last general doesn't know who is suitable for the last general. ”
Although the ministers of the DPRK and China have a lot of contacts, they respect her more.
Chu Nanyue originally thought that he could use this to make the emperor "retreat from the difficulty", but he didn't know that the emperor had more and more intention to be a matchmaker.
"What is General Chu talking about? If anyone dares to say that General Chu has anything wrong, I will not agree to it first. The Emperor said.
The emperor thought for a while, and then spoke again: "It's a pity that Hong'er's child married a concubine too early, otherwise I would have intended to be a matchmaker for you, so that you can marry the royal family like your sister and be a concubine." ”
Chu Nanyue gasped when she heard this, and hurriedly saluted: "The last general will not dare to climb up to your highnesses, thank you Your Majesty for your love." ”
The Emperor raised his hand slightly to stop her salutation.
I think it's just an accidental mention of it, and the emperor didn't even mention Tanglin Shuo. And Chu Nanyue didn't even think about it, he knew that he was acquiescing that Tanglin Shuo was compatible with Xie Yinhua.
"I have too few sons, and I probably can't miss General Chu. And I looked at it in the court, the sons-in-law of the Zhao family and the Xu family all looked pretty good. The Emperor suggested again.
In the emperor's mouth, he refers to Zhao Jingyu and Xu Qingchang.
Chu Nanyue hated Zhao Jingyu deeply. I don't want to marry Zhao Jingyu again like in my previous life. She was reborn in order to get out of her previous misfortunes. If you turn around and come back, nothing has changed, but I am afraid that even I will blame myself.
So Chu Nanyue pushed with some eagerness: "The emperor has not forgotten that the last general had already canceled the marriage contract with Lord Zhao before living in the Chu family's separate mansion. ”
Only then did the emperor remember that after Chu Nanyue's class returned to the court, he canceled the marriage contract with the Zhao family, and he was negligent for a while.
The emperor said, "I forgot." Now that you have canceled the marriage contract, in the end, the two families have hurt their faces, and they should not have more right and wrong. However, Lord Xu is really good, and there has never been a mistake in serving in the Ministry of Rites, but he is a good match for you. ”
Seeing that although Chu Nanyue didn't veto, he didn't mean to agree, the emperor thought again: "If these children of the big families, General Chu doesn't like their habits, then among the new science and technology scholars, can General Chu have a favorite person?" ”
For the martial arts, the emperor attached a lot of importance to it. And most of those new talents are people with no background.
They are clean and open, and they are the objects of the imperial court today. And if the emperor really wants them to work hard for the court, it must not be enough to rely on official positions alone. Their meager family background is far from supporting their future achievements. Even if the emperor wanted to use this group of people to balance the family, it was difficult.
