Chapter 21: Intentional Marriage

"Miss, the eldest lady sent someone to invite you over, saying that someone from the palace sent a message to let you enter the palace to see you. Zhaorong came in with a basin of water to serve Yunjun to freshen up.

Li Jinyu had already come to talk to Yun Jun about this matter last night, she had already made preparations, and under Zhaorong's service, she quickly finished freshening up and went to see the eldest lady.

"I've seen my mother. Yun Jun looked at the eldest lady with a smile and bowed slightly.

The eldest lady was very unhappy, and with a 'hmm' sound, she led the people out of the door.

Despite all the reluctance in her heart, the eldest lady still took Yun Jun to the carriage to the palace.

The eldest lady has always had a cold face, and she doesn't care about Yunjun.

Yun Jun is happy to be idle, the eldest lady does not come to her trouble, she can also think about the countermeasures after meeting the emperor.

Soon they arrived at the gate of the palace, and there were already people waiting to meet them, and when they saw their carriage coming, they came forward to meet them.

"The minion has seen Mrs. Yun, eldest miss. "That person knew that this time the emperor summoned them into the palace for a reward, so he had a particularly good attitude towards them, especially Yun Jun.

The eldest lady helped the maid down from the carriage, and gave the man a small bag of silver. The man took the money cheerfully, and became more respectful.

"Mrs. Xie Yun. ”

He walked in front very courteously: "Please also ask the lady and the eldest lady to follow the slaves, the emperor is now in Fengqi Palace with the queen mother and the lady of the country." ”

"There is Father-in-law Lao. Yun Jun followed with Zhaorong, while the eldest lady had a calm face and slowly walked behind.

The father-in-law didn't know much about the grievances between them, and deliberately slowed down his pace, waiting for Mrs. Yun to follow. Mrs. Keyun seemed to be deliberate, and she didn't want to take a quick step at all, but the father-in-law who led the way was in a hurry.

After a long time, they finally arrived at Fengqi Palace. Mrs. Guo has been arriving for a long time. And the emperor was indeed a little dissatisfied because they came slowly.

"Courtiers (courtiers) see the emperor, the queen's mother, and the lady of the country. Yun Jun followed behind the eldest lady and made a very standard salute.

However, the emperor did not let them get up for a long time, and they could only continue to maintain this laborious position.

Mrs. Yun was born in the Jin State Mansion, so there is naturally nothing to say about etiquette. It's just that she is used to being pampered, and no one dares to embarrass her like this, and after a short while, she can't hold on.

And Yun Jun, who has been living in the harem for many years, is now very tired, but he still gritted his teeth and persevered, and he couldn't leave a bad impression on the emperor as soon as he came.

The emperor was a little annoyed, so he deliberately hung them. Seeing that the time was almost up, Mrs. Guo said, "Get up." ”

The eldest lady breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly stood up.

"Mrs. Xie Guo. Yun Jun was not in a hurry, and got up slowly, as if the person who was being hung by the emperor just now was not her.

This performance, the emperor saw it in his eyes, and did not care about Mrs. Yun's inappropriateness, but felt that her stepdaughter was very decent, and he already had a good impression of Yun Jun in his heart.

Mrs. Guo was also very satisfied with Yun Jun, and felt that her son's vision was good, so she immediately decided to ask the emperor to marry Yun Jun and her son according to Li Jinyu's request.

Before waiting for the emperor to reward her, Mrs. Guo spoke: "Your Majesty, I want to ask you for a reward for this Yun family girl." ”

The emperor frowned, unable to quite understand Madame Guo's words. Didn't he already promise the imperial sister-in-law to give this girl a reward before, why did he ask for another one?

Mrs. Guo smiled very gently and explained: "I think this Yun family girl is very good, and Jinyu is also a big boss, I want you to give them two marriages." ”

The emperor didn't expect Mrs. Guo to make such a request, he was stunned for a moment, and then he thought in his heart how to refuse her, he didn't want Yunding Mountain's daughter to have anything to do with Prince Yu.

"This is a lifelong event about Prince Yu, and the imperial sister-in-law has decided on it just after seeing this side, which is a little inappropriate. "The queen also doesn't want the daughter of the Yun family to marry Prince Yu.

After all, Yun Jun is the daughter of the Yun family, in case the Yun family thinks that Prince Yu is orthodox, and with the power of the Yun family, they support Prince Yu and let the throne fall aside.

"Yes, Imperial Sister-in-law. If you want to hold your grandson, I will ask the queen to help him choose a concubine immediately. "Since the queen has spoken, the emperor naturally wants to continue.

With the understanding of Prince Yu by the people in the capital, even if they choose concubines on a large scale, they can't find any rich and noble concubines. After all, how could a powerful family want their daughter to marry a sick prince?

Not only that, but the emperor also wanted to directly cut off Mrs. Guo's thoughts: "I think this Yun family girl and the fifth child are quite compatible, and I have long wanted to marry them." ”

When Mrs. Guo heard this, her face changed. But they still didn't fight with the emperor, they were orphans and widows, and they had no support, so it was not worth turning their faces with the emperor for this matter.

I heard that the emperor wanted to give his son a marriage, but the queen did not agree. What is the situation in the mansion of Yun Jun, she knows it well. It didn't help her to marry her own son.

"Your Majesty, the four princes haven't married yet, why is it the turn of Xiao Wu?" The queen said this with a smile, which made Mrs. Guo even more angry when she saw it.

The emperor thought about it and felt that it was normal for the queen to look down on Yunjun, and the fourth child was not young, and the identity of Yunjun was also suitable to be a concubine of the fourth prince, so it was decided immediately.

"Then I will give the Yun family girl and the fourth child a marriage. ”

Yun Jun had been standing in the center of the hall, not speaking, but listening carefully to the emperor's words, until the emperor wanted to marry her to Li Mingyang, she refused.

"Your Majesty, the courtiers are still keeping filial piety for their grandfather, and I ask you to take back your fate. ”

The emperor didn't expect Yun Jun to refuse, although the fourth child is not as noble as the fifth child, but he is also one of the hot princes, this Yun Jun actually refused.

"Your Majesty, since you want to reward the Yun family girl for her rescue efforts, it is better to make a countryman, don't let people underestimate it. Mrs. Guo still doesn't want Yun Jun to marry other royal descendants like this, but Li Jinyu is worried about her. Even if she can't become her daughter-in-law, she has to keep it, maybe she will have a chance in the future.

"Since the imperial sister-in-law has said so, and the Yun family girl is in the filial piety period, then she will be named the Xiangjun of Yuhang Guangchang, and reward 100 acres of fertile land and 1,000 taels of gold. "As long as Yunjun doesn't marry Prince Yu, the emperor doesn't care what reward he wants to give.

The emperor rewarded them, and the queen hurriedly asked people to get a plate of jewelry for Yun Jun to choose at will.

Yun Jun thanked the emperor and Mrs. Guo, and Mrs. Yun casually found an excuse and took Yun Jun back to the house.

It's not that the eldest lady hasn't seen the world, but Yun Jun has received so many rewards, but Yun Xin hasn't, so she wants to grab whatever she says.

It's just that now that Yunjun has won the reward, she is not very easy to start, so she has to go back and sum it up.

As soon as he returned home, Yun Jun returned to his Tingtao Water Pavilion. And the eldest lady ran into the Ning family who came to the door to propose marriage.
