Chapter 62: The palace is in charge of General Chu

"This palace is not only here for this matter." Queen's Road.

Chu Nanyue saw that line of sight, and the queen was exploring with deep meaning.

"I heard that General Chu has worked with His Royal Highness Sixth for a year?" The queen asked.

"That's right, His Royal Highness the Sixth is training in the military camp, and it happens to be in the main army with the last general." Chu Nanyue replied.

The queen smiled softly: "Shuo'er has too little experience, at that time he often wrote letters to the palace, and the letters occasionally mentioned life in the army, and also talked about several generals he knew, including you." ”

As she spoke, the queen stopped, as if looking at Chu Nanyue's expression.

Chu Nanyue just lowered her eyes more and more, and replied: "The last general only knows how to lead the army to fight, if there is any negligence and neglect of the Sixth Highness at that time, I hope that the queen will forgive her sins!" ”

"Hongu doesn't blame you." The queen was busy, she tried to change her words, and asked Chu Nanyue again: "General Chu, this palace wants to know more about Shuo'er's affairs in the army." Since you are in the army with him, you must have a good relationship. ”

The queen's words were tempting, and when Chu Nanyue casually swept over Xie Yinhua, she saw that Xie Yinhua was also listening nervously, and she understood most of the queen's meaning.

Chu Nanyue showed a look of shame, and said slowly: "The last general is really ashamed, and he has failed the high hopes of the queen's mother. When he was in the army, the last general was concerned about the battles, and he didn't care much about the relationship with the generals. ”

This is also the truth, those five years of military career, for Chu Nanyue, every year is no different. Tanglin Shuo, who came to the barracks in the last year, actually didn't leave too much impression on her.

When the queen on the opposite side heard this, she seemed to be relieved, and looked at Chu Nanyue's eyes a little softer.

Could it really be that she was wrong? The queen hesitated.

Shuo'er told her that Chu Nanyue was his colleague, and the two did not have that kind of relationship.

The two have indeed had a lot of contacts since they returned to the court, but that was also a matter of government affairs, and many of them were explained by the emperor.

The queen looked at Chu Nanyue with a calm expression, and when she talked about Donglin Shuo, she didn't have that childlike attitude in her eyes, but it really seemed that she had misunderstood Chu Nanyue.

"General Chu doesn't have to mind so much, this palace just asks casually, if General Chu doesn't notice, this palace will ask other generals in the future, it's the same." The queen laughed.

"Yes, Queen." Chu Nanyue bowed slightly.

The queen, who had relieved her worries, looked back at Xie Yinhua at this moment, took Xie Yinhua's hand, and said to Chu Nanyue: "What does General Chu think, how is Shuo'er in this palace?" ”

"His Royal Highness the Sixth is an upright person and acts steadily, and the last general will admire him." Chu Nanyue said loudly.

"What do you think of Hua'er?" The queen then asked with a chuckle.

Chu Nanyue paused slightly, knowing that if she said in her heart, she would probably make the queen unhappy, so she picked up polite words and said, "Miss Xie is the daughter of the Xie family, how noble, naturally she is a first-class noble girl in the capital." ”

Xie Yinhua became more and more proud when she heard this, only to hear that the queen seemed to be a lot emotional, and said seriously: "They are not young anymore, if Shuo'er hadn't gone to the barracks at that time, maybe they would have ...... with Hua'er."

The queen's words were not fully spoken, and they were stopped by Xie Yinhua with a red face: "Aunt! In front of outsiders, why say so much? ”

For the sake of Tanglin Shuo, she was willing to wait, and after Tanglin Shuo went to the barracks, everyone said that she was old enough to get married, and persuaded her to choose other outstanding children to marry.

But she has already recognized Tanglin Shuo, and he must be indispensable in this life.

Sure enough, let her wait for someone to come back.

Chu Nanyue listened quietly and did not speak again. Although Xie Yinhua's words are stinging, they are also true.

The relationship between the Xie family's in-laws, the queen and Donglin Shuo, Xie Yinhua are connected by blood, and he is a person who can't be beaten by eight poles, of course, he is an outsider.

The queen talked about the two of them in front of Chu Nanyue, and Chu Nanyue herself felt faintly embarrassed.

Just as Chu Nanyue was about to find an excuse to leave the palace earlier, the queen asked her as if she remembered something: "General Chu, don't blame this palace for being straightforward, I heard that General Chu has been in the army for five years on behalf of his brother, and now he is in his early eighteenth. ”

Chu Nanyue knew that the queen had no malicious intentions in what she said, and it was indeed as the queen said, most of the women of her age in Beijing were already married. If it is faster, they may have already given birth to children and become mothers.

This may not be a woman's way out, but it must not be the path Chu Nanyue wants to take.

"Niangniang, the last general has no intention of getting married now. Thanks to the emperor's trust, the last general will fight on the battlefield and earn credit. Now the matter of the garrison in the suburbs of Beijing is still going on, and there are many cases in the Yamen, and the last general just wants to do more practical things for the imperial court and share more worries for His Majesty! Chu Nanyue replied loudly.

"It is Tanglin's luck to have a soldier like General Chu." Queen's Road.

The queen listened to her sincere tone, with the heart of serving the country, and her heart was also touched.

Xie Yinhua, who was beside him, pursed his lips and said in a low voice: "General Chu should have a family affair, I heard that General Chu also agreed to it at first, but for some reason he personally refused." ”

Hearing this, Chu Nanyue couldn't help frowning.

Xie Yinhua openly mentioned her and Zhao Jingyu so blatantly, even if she didn't say Zhao Jingyu's name clearly, she already had no respect for her.

The queen didn't notice that the two of them looked wrong, but Xie Yinhua's words reminded her, so she said kindly: "Who said that military position and marriage cannot be both?" General Chu said today that he didn't want to marry, maybe he just didn't meet the right person. ”

Chu Nanyue's eyebrows became more and more frowned, and she had already guessed the queen's next sentence.

Sure enough, I heard the queen say: "This palace is in charge of General Chu, and I will pay more attention to the right children in the future, and let General Chu think about it more." ”

She also thought a little that a woman like Chu Nanyue, who has a good look and a military position, probably the nobles in Beijing will be happy.

If Chu Nanyue's weakness is trapped, that is his origin.

The queen then instructed: "General Chu should not be too high-eyed, and it is better to choose one of the families of the right people in Beijing." ”

Hearing this, Xie Yinhua couldn't help but smile in his heart. She originally regarded Chu Nanyue as her opponent, but listening to the queen's meaning, the queen never thought that Chu Nanyue could be qualified to be with Dongling Shuo.

That's right, too. Even if Chu Nanyue is a general? If you really talk about marriage matching, the only one in the capital who can be worthy of Tanglin Shuo is her Xie Yinhua.

Behind the queen's politeness and care, Chu Nanyue felt that trace of contempt.

She had no intention of embarrassing the queen, but there was a little more alienation between her words: "The queen, in the end, she has no intention of marrying, so this matter is still avoided." The last general is only afraid of disappointing the mother's kindness, and also delaying the normal marriage of the children in Beijing. ”

When the queen heard this, she knew that Chu Nanyue really had no intention of doing this, so she couldn't force it, so she had to smile and do it from now on.
