(114) The second prince arrived

It is said that the second prince is also an infatuated person, when he was a child in Taixue, he met the eldest granddaughter of the country's sacrificial wine, Qu Xiaomin, the two are four years apart, they have known each other since they were very young, and they don't know when the second prince's desire became to marry Qu Xiaomin as the imperial concubine.

Jiang Qingchen later analyzed, mainly because the second prince was reluctant to read since he was a child, and he was often beaten because he couldn't memorize the book. Wen Shu will not be more than three times, and he will memorize them all.

Qu Xiaomin is the ideal appearance of the second prince's childhood.

On Qu Xiaomin's twelfth birthday that year, the second prince deliberately spent a lot of money to buy a Persian domestic pronunciation box inlaid with gemstones, which was very beautiful. The second prince of the year didn't have any assets, and this was all the silver that Sui Lu had saved.

So I especially want to get Qu Xiaomin's approval for the gift. So after giving the gift, he said that he was leaving Qufu, but in fact, he did not leave immediately, but hid in the rockery, waiting to receive praise.

As a result, the maid said, "Miss, this is so beautiful, do you think the second prince is interesting to you?" ”

"Don't talk nonsense, Brother Xuhe is my brother, and he has always been very good to me." Qu Xiaomin said.

"Also, the second prince is very good, but the people are too flowery, and the lord and the lady will not let the young lady marry a man with a heart." The maid said.

"There are too few men in the capital who don't care." Qu Xiaomin said with emotion.

The second prince has always felt very good about himself, he thinks that Qu Xiaomin is the person who understands him best, but he didn't expect that in her heart, he is also a big carrot.

Objectively speaking, since the second prince became an adult, he has indeed often been in and out of Fengyue occasions, and it is not also for entertainment, but he definitely has nothing to do with Fengyue women, and they are all acting on the spot. I think it's a flower mouth and no heart.

This incident stimulated the second prince a lot, and he was depressed for a while, and then just in time, Jiang Xi'an begged him for help. asked him to go to the Hou Mansion to propose relatives and help Jiang Yaoyao relieve the siege, and the second prince agreed to give up on himself.

In fact, deep down, the second prince also wanted to know Qu Xiaomin's opinion on this matter, but the result was that he had no opinion. In the end, the matter ended with the Fuguo Mansion going to Changping Houfu to propose marriage, and Changping Houfu agreed.

Although this matter ended peacefully, the second prince suddenly realized that although he did not have any thoughts about the throne, it did not mean that others also saw him in this way, and he must have the ability to protect himself.

There are many places of interest in the suburbs of Beijing, which have fallen into disrepair, and the second prince felt that this was a business opportunity, so he took the initiative to contract it, and then built a one-stop service of eating, drinking and having fun around the places of interest.

Although the initial investment is a bit high, it is very profitable after it is built, that is, the maintenance cost is high, but there is no additional tax burden.

The saint was very supportive of the second prince's approach. It is a good thing to reuse the abandoned monuments for the country and the people.

The original name of the beauty square was Fan Zhuang, which was originally opened by an old bustard in the capital, and it was a little famous in the Qinglou circle in the capital, she was old and wanted to tell the old man to return to his hometown, so he gave the shop to the second prince, and later the second prince changed its name to the beauty square.

After that, a chain of stores was opened across the country, but basically no one knew that the predecessor of Beauty Square was a rouge shop that did prostitution business.

After four years of hard work, the second prince has done a decent business, and the emperor is also impressed by him, in fact, the emperor loves the prince of the Qing Dynasty very much, after all, there is only one throne.

In the next few years, although the second prince did a lot of business, when he was free, he would also think of Qu Xiaomin, but since Qu Xiaomin's birthday four years ago, the second prince has not taken the initiative to find her.

Even if there was an opportunity to meet in public, the second prince deliberately avoided it. Who doesn't have a little pride in their hearts?

The palace will have a begging festival every year, which is what the folk say about Qixi Festival, the second prince is already twenty years old, and it has been four years since the establishment of the mansion, so it is said that marriage should be talked about, but because the prince's marriage has not been engaged, everyone has no intention of urging him.

That year, the marriageable men and women of the noble families of the imperial court arrived, because Qu Xiaomin wanted to perform a musical instrument, the second prince justifiably looked carefully at the woman he had liked for many years, and the little girl had grown up and had reached the end of the year.

There were rumors in the capital before that after Jiang Yaoyao got married, the most beautiful noblewoman in the capital was Qu Xiaomin, the granddaughter of the country's sacrificial wine.

The second prince's ear is not bad, and I heard someone whispering, saying that Gu Chunchao, the second son of Zhongqin Bofu, intends to go to Qufu to propose marriage, and it seems that the Qu family also has intentions, although Gu Chunchao has no official position, but Xianyuan is also enough capital.

The second prince was reluctant when he heard it, his impression of Gu Chunchao has always been bad, and people in the capital say that they are attentive, but they have never done anything unruly in their affairs.

Gu Chunchao is powerful, it is said that he went to Yangzhou to buy a thin horse a few years ago, and he bought four people before and after just knowing it, all of them were raised in the outer courtyard, and the people in the Zhongqin Hou Mansion did not know. Gu Chunchao is a maid in Zhongqin Waiting Mansion.

It is said that there is a skinny horse who has given birth to a girl baby for Gu Chunchao. I didn't dare to take it into the house. At present, it is kept in the leisure garden.

Gu Chunchao is low-key, so no one in the capital knows about these things, but in the heart of the second prince, Gu Chunchao is a standard lustful embryo. In fact, Gu Chunchao was also wronged, and Gu Chunchao was also helpless, didn't the wind and snow moon written by Yue Gongzi also have actual combat experience?

Besides, if Gu Chunchao hadn't seen a lot of women of all colors, he wouldn't have made a convincing beauty list.

The reason why the second prince doesn't look down on Gu Chunchao is not because of Gu Chunchao's appearance at all, the main reason is that he thinks he is lustful, and he is also a lewd type of color embryo, and he likes to hide it. The second is because he once wanted to marry Qu Xiaomin.

In fact, to say that Qu Xiaomin has no intention of the second prince at all, in the past few years that the two have not seen each other, Qu Xiaomin has always been very concerned about the news of the second prince, and I heard that he is doing historical site maintenance and opening a beauty workshop, and he is very happy for him.

She thinks it's normal that the second prince hasn't looked for her in the past few years, first, people are very busy, and second, everyone is old and can't be gossiped about by others like when they were children.

She knew that the marriage of the second prince had not been decided for so many years, and she also secretly rejoiced in her heart. can't say what kind of emotion it is, anyway, the second prince is still the same brother Xihe who will coax her in her heart.

In the begging festival activities in the palace that day, Qu Xiaomin was out of the limelight, and the second prince could see that many noble sons were already moved, and if he didn't want Qu Xiaomin to become someone else's wife, then he had to take action.

But it's okay to act on the spot, but I really don't know what to do when this comes.

During the depressed period, he went to Jiang Xi'an to drink, Jiang Xi'an was very busy, and it was impossible to accompany him all the time, but just in time for Jiang Qingchen to come, Jiang Qingchen continued to accompany the second prince, and the second prince drank high, and he couldn't tell who was who.

The relationship between the second prince and Jiang Xi'an is good, and he is not taboo when he speaks, and when he drinks too much, he treats Jiang Qingchen as Jiang Xi'an, and shares all his emotional journey.

Jiang Qingchen didn't have any disdain, he was just surprised that the second prince, who didn't seem to care about anything, actually used his affection, so profound, Li Yanfei is, the second prince is, when will his true destiny come?

A few days later, the Beijing Polo League, the second prince and Jiang Qingchen participated. Many ladies from the capital also came to watch that day. As a result, the battle was too fierce, and the second prince fell off his horse.

The imperial doctor saw that the second prince was fine, he didn't hurt his bones, he just had a little abrasion, and the wound would scab over after a few days.

Jiang Qingchen had the heart to help the second prince and felt that this was an opportunity, but he couldn't say what happened that day, so he said to the second prince: "Second prince, I see that you are very seriously injured and your mood is also very low, or I will go to Miss Qu and talk to her and ask her to come and have a look." ”

The second prince didn't understand at first, and said in his heart that I was very good, and I could still go in the second half, but when Jiang Qingchen talked about the back, he immediately understood, and immediately pretended to be weak and said: "Okay, then there will be Admiral Lao Jiang." ”

Jiang Qingchen's face was serious and very deceptive, Qu Xiaomin was worried that Jiang Qingchen was taken into the room where the second prince was resting, she didn't bring a maid, for fear that the second prince would feel faceless.

"Brother Xuhe, your leg hurts, doesn't it?" Qu Xiaomin said.

Jiang Qingchen said in his heart that I can only help you get here, and the rest is up to you. Second prince, come on!

"Minmin, why are you here, do you say I'm useless, I couldn't study when I was a child, I just did something in the past few years to make my father look at me a few times, and my leg has a problem again." The second prince said sadly.

"No, Brother Xuhe, you have always been the best brother in my heart." Qu Xiaomin said.

"Oh, it's just brother, it seems that I fell off the horse this time because of God's will, I originally wanted my father to give me a marriage, but I'm like this, how can I marry you, forget it." The second prince said.

The second prince still wants to save face, and if you don't agree, I won't force it. So it will be confessed in this way with a way out.

Qu Xiaomin was stunned, he didn't expect the second prince to think so, the family was thinking about her marriage recently, in fact, he was also afraid, marrying a stranger, what will happen in the future, it's hard to say. But if you marry the second prince, if you don't say anything else, you will definitely be good to yourself.

"I didn't dislike you for having a bad leg, and besides, how do you know it's going to be bad all the time?" Qu Xiaomin said.

"Then you agree with me to propose?" The second prince suddenly sat up happily and said.

"Your leg doesn't hurt anymore?" Qu Xiaomin asked suspiciously.

The final result is that the emperor gave Ning Xuhe and Qu Xiaomin a marriage, in fact, the emperor doesn't care much about the marriage of the idle prince, as long as you follow the regulations, you can be happy.

On the contrary, for the sake of his granddaughter, before giving marriage, he had the courage to negotiate with the second prince, as long as the second prince did not marry the side concubine, he would agree to the marriage.

The rumors in the main capital say that the second prince is very attentive, and the Qu family is really not at ease.

The second prince readily agreed, and at present, the second prince is the only prince who has been married for more than a year and does not have a side concubine, but no one will use the word single-mindedness to him.

Because his maids are very beautiful, not to mention, even the dancing girl is one in a hundred. It represents the highest level of capital.

Everyone's conclusion is that the second princess is strictly controlled, and the second prince can only engage in this kind of little trick.
