Murong Lin took Chu Qian's hand and smiled at Murong Jing: "Jing'er, if there is something in the future, you can find your mother to call the shots!" ”

Murong Jing knelt down again: "Qi Qi father, mother concubine, son-in-law has one thing to ask father and mother to call the shots!" I hope that my father and mother will be fulfilled. ”

Murong Lin said with a smile: "If it's a state affair, go to Zichen Palace for a while, don't bother your mother; If it's a family matter, it's all up to your mother. ”

Chu Xianrou listened, and forced a smile on her face: "Jing'er, but it's okay to say it." ”

Murong Jing raised his head: "Back to my father and mother, Jing'er met a woman on the street some time ago, and she will never forget it since." After several inquiries, I learned that it was Bai Shuwan, the youngest daughter of General Bai Zhan, who was waiting for the boudoir. I also asked my father and mother to be the masters, and gave my son a good marriage! ”

Murong Lin said: "This is a family matter, and it should be your mother and concubine who are in charge!" Aifei, what do you think? ”

Chu Qianrou's heart was dripping blood, it turned out that this was his purpose. What kind of love at first sight, he is just trying to win over Bai Zhan, maybe he really likes other girls, but if it weren't Bai Zhan's daughter, would it be worth his hard work? She wanted to say no, but what reason did she have to refuse, what reason did she have to make him wait for her? He always had to marry a wife and have children, and he could not marry the woman of his father.

"Since the emperor said that this is a family matter, it is a family matter. According to the concubines, the daughter of General Bai's family is excellent. However, the concubines thought that it was better for the two to be happy with each other in marriage, and if the white girl also had this intention, the emperor would fulfill them. If it's just the wishful thinking of the emperor, don't embarrass the girl. Chu Qianrou said ambiguous words. Even if there is no way to stop him, he can't be too obedient, so as not to arouse the emperor's suspicion.

"Don't thank you yet!" Murong Lin agreed with Murong Jing's request. He had also doubted why only Murong Jing's gift could make Chu Qianrou happy, and he had also heard rumors that the two had known each other for a long time. However, the rumors were unfounded, and Murong Jing and Chu Qianrou had no intersection, and all the gifts were transferred through his hands, so he didn't believe the rumors.

If there wasn't a way this time, he wouldn't let Murong Jing come up with an idea. I don't want Murong Jing to recognize Chu Qianrou as his mother today, and then propose to marry Bai Shuwan, which is exactly what Murong Lin wants, and it also proves that he has nothing to do with Chu Qianrou, he really just wants to make his father happy.

Murong Jing bowed deeply again: "The son thanked his father!" Thank you, Princess! ”

Chu Qianrou leaned on Murong Lin's arms and said with a smile: "Then the emperor will announce General Bai tomorrow to ask, if Miss Bai can take a fancy to Jing'er, let the national teacher choose an auspicious day for the zodiac and give them marriage." ”

Murong Lin laughed: "Jing'er is the emperor of me and my concubine, and the Bai family is naturally too late to be happy!" ”

Chu Qianrou closed her eyes: "Your Majesty, I have also seen this juggling, and the emperor has it." The concubines are tired and want to go back to rest for a while. ”

"Well, I still have business to attend to." Murong Lin turned his head and ordered, "Li Chunhui, go and send the concubine back to the palace in a soft sedan chair." ”

"Slaves obey!"

Seeing this, Murong Jing also proposed to retire and leave before Murong Lin.

As soon as Chu Qianrou returned to the palace, she lay on the bed, Yun Zhu knew her thoughts, helped her cover the quilt and withdrew, guarding the door to prevent people from coming in and disturbing her.

Chu Qianrou only felt very tired, so tired that she didn't want to move, she just wanted to lie down and didn't want to move. But she really lay down, she couldn't sleep again, and all kinds of things flooded into her mind, so that she had to think about it. The one who thinks about it the most is Bai Shuwan, she entered the palace not long after she arrived in Beijing, and she has nothing to do with the daughters of various families, so she has not seen Bai Shuwan.

She couldn't help but wonder if this Bai Shuwan was better looking than herself, otherwise how could Wang Lang take the initiative to ask for it and let herself make the decision for him? Wang Lang, how ruthless are you to do such a thing?

Of course she knew what he thought, if he asked Murong Lin alone to propose marriage, Murong Lin would not necessarily agree, and would doubt his intentions. But he took the opportunity of recognizing her as his mother's concubine, and his proposal to marry became an exchange between mother and son, as long as she did not object, Murong Lin would definitely agree. And she has no reason to object.

Wang Lang, you have always been like this, and you will never give up until you achieve your goal, but have you ever thought about how much my heart hurts when I let me speak for you and help you marry someone else?

Thinking that she was looking for a reason for him again, he must have thought of marrying his daughter only to win over Bai Zhan, Bai Zhan gave birth to three sons, and only then did he get such a daughter, and the family spoiled Bai Shuwan to the sky. He didn't really fall in love with Bai Shuwan, but he just used the marriage as a tool for future planning, so he was not afraid to say it in front of him.

Soon, she denied her own idea: if this was the case, why didn't he ask to marry her in the first place? The more she thought about it, the more sad she became, and the more she thought about it, the more confused she became.

When it was almost time for dinner, Yunzhu went to call her to get up, and saw her huddled at the head of the bed with the quilt in her arms, her eyes were red, and she didn't know how long she had been crying. Since her "miscarriage", all her tears have been pretended, only this time it is real.

"Mother, it's time to get up, it's almost time for dinner." Yunzhu called softly.

"What?" Chu Qianrou realized her appearance, immediately wiped away her tears with her hands, and said busily, "Go and get a basin of water to wash my face!" Go get some ice cubes for me, but don't let the emperor see it! ”

"What can't I see?" Murong Lin had already walked in.

Chu Qianrou hurriedly turned her head away from looking at him.

Murong Lin sat at the head of the bed, turned her face, and saw her red eyes crying, and suddenly sank his face: "Why are you crying again?" "Could it be that she and Jing'er really have an affair?

"The concubine just dreamed that the emperor had grown up and was about to get married, and the concubine was also old...... Your Majesty," Chu Qianrou threw herself into his arms, "The concubine understands the emperor's hard work, so she is afraid that the emperor will see the concubine's current appearance." The concubine promised the emperor that she would never be sad and sad because of the emperor's affairs in the future, and asked the emperor to give the concubine another day of grace and let the concubine slow down. ”

Murong Lin eased up, hugged her and said, "I know, I won't force you, but you should forget him quickly, and we will have another one in the future." ”

Bai Zhan, like Chu Sui, was loyal to the emperor and did not invest in any faction. When Murong Lin asked about the marriage between Murong Jing and Bai Shuwan, Bai Zhan thought that it would be a good choice for the five princes not to fight or fight, and to stay away from right and wrong, so he agreed immediately, but he still left a way out for himself, saying that he respected his daughter's thoughts.

As soon as Bai Zhan returned home and said it, Bai Shuwan naturally agreed. Murong Jing wants a good wife who can help him, but he is not a grudge, before he proposed to marry, he had already had many private contacts with Bai Shuwan, and even used the strength of wine to make a gift to Zhou Gong, he didn't want Bai Shuwan to become the second Chu Qianrou.

So at this time, Bai Shuwan was looking forward to Murong Jing coming to propose marriage every day, and when she heard that he finally proposed marriage to the emperor, she couldn't be happier, but she still pretended to be shy and said: "It's all up to my father!" ”

This marriage was thus completed, the national teacher chose an auspicious day for the zodiac, and Murong Lin issued a decree for marriage. After Bai Shuwan married Murong Jing, she also made a lot of efforts for him to ascend to the throne in the future, which is a later story.

"Your Majesty? Emperor? Seeing that Murong Lin was asleep, Chu Qianrou covered him with a cloak, continued to pick up the fold, and reviewed it while reading. Since Murong Jing recognized her mother, she went to Zichen Palace every day for three days to accompany her, so don't be too familiar with these folds. By the time Murong Lin woke up, she had already approved most of the piles of folds, and the rest were neatly laid aside.

"Concubine?" Murong Lin couldn't believe it, she could be frightened when she was asked to read the folds before, but now she was actually reading the folds alone.

"Your Majesty, are you awake?" Chu Qianrou put down the red pen, sat beside him, and said with a smile, "The concubine saw that the emperor was tired, so she didn't dare to disturb the emperor." There are only a few things that these twists and turns turn over, and the concubines are tired of seeing them, so the concubines make their own decisions and reply according to the emperor's previous intentions. If it has not been dealt with before, the concubines will be put aside, and this will be read to the emperor. ”

"Show me." Murong Lin said expressionlessly.

Chu Qianrou took a few batches of good recitals and gave them to Murong Lin, and Murong Lin casually flipped through them a few times and threw them aside: "These old stubborn people, who enjoy the court's fortune, but they don't worry about me, they always use these things to bother me, so many twists and turns, how many of them are these useless things?" Concubine Ai is back well, she should scold them like this! ”

Chu Qianrou took the unapproved excerpt again, and recited it for Murong Lin: "Jiaozhou Dashui, the prince plays the opening of the warehouse to release grain, and orders Li Shilang of the household department to be the messenger." ”

"What do you think, Aifei?" Murong Lin asked.

Chu Qianrou shook her head: "The concubine doesn't understand. ”

"It's okay, you can say whatever you want."

Chu Qianrou thought for a while and said: "Jiaozhou flood, first of all, we must find out the cause, as well as the current situation of water control. If the grain is opened in a hurry to release grain, the water has not receded, it is difficult to transport, and the grain and grass are soaked in water and damaged, but they cannot be delivered to the victims, is it not a waste? ”

"Look at it, a woman can think of a problem, but he doesn't think about it at all, he just thinks about asking for credit." Murong Lin said unhappily.

"I think His Royal Highness the Crown Prince just cares about the people of Jiaozhou, and he doesn't think about it in a hurry, maybe Lord Li is indeed the right person."

"Humph!" Murong Lin said angrily, "Li Lin is indecisive, it is difficult to achieve great things, let him be a messenger, once there is opposition in the local area, or when he encounters thugs, he will have no master." Jue'er recommended him to be this messenger, but it was just to make a profit! ”

"Your Majesty, the crown prince is the prince, why do you need to be like this, I think he also takes care of his family affection, so he wants to give Master Li a chance. However, the stakes are too high for disaster relief to be so hasty. ”

"What Concubine Ai said is very true, who does Concubine Ai think she should send?"

"The emperor is making fun of the concubines again, how many concubines do the ministers and concubines of the court and the central government know? If it weren't for helping the emperor approve the folds, the concubines wouldn't be able to call a name, let alone a number. ”

"Just choose what you know."

"This ......" Chu Qianrou thought for a long time before she said a little weakly, "Then can the emperor let his concubines also have a little selfishness?" ”

"You want Jing'er to go?"

"Naturally not. The tree is very popular, Jing'er recognized the concubine, and the ministers have a lot of complaints about the concubine and Jing'er, how dare the concubine give him such a heavy responsibility? It's His Royal Highness Six, he is the matchmaker between the emperor and the concubine, the concubine has said before that she wants to thank him well, but she has been suffering from not honoring, so the concubine wants to give him a chance to make meritorious contributions, and the emperor thinks it's good? ”

Murong Lin said seriously: "It's good, it's just that Jue'er is a young man, not as stable as Jing'er, I am worried that it will be difficult for him to take on this heavy responsibility, but it is in vain to waste the concubine's heart." ”

"This is not simple, the emperor can send a powerful young general to follow the Sixth Highness."

"That's right, find a military general who is the same age as Jue'er and is more stable to follow, it's time to give Jue'er some opportunities to do things."
