Xiao Rui never imagined that there would be such a change in something that had been set in stone! But it sounds very reasonable, and there is no reason to refute it.

He broke out in a cold sweat and cautiously observed Xie Mulin with a straight face, guessing that he had just said the wrong thing and made her unhappy. What is wrong with that? As for the matter of getting married next year, it is still ...... Giving people in the palace?

Xiao Rui thought about it and felt that the proposal to get married next year would not make Xie Mulin so angry, and besides, the matter of this wedding period was not something they could say. Xie Mulin is already in order, and he does not plan to return to the border to participate in the war, and his parents on both sides are also in favor of marriage, so the only thing left is to hold the wedding step by step. Even if Xie Mulin feels that it is too early to get married next year, the days are negotiable, and she will not get angry.

That's because the palace may give someone down.

Xiao Rui reflected on what he said, there should be nothing wrong with it, right? The newly recognized biological father Yan Wang also told him about the past, because Princess Yan injured her body when she gave birth to a daughter and could not give birth again, but Yan Wang has always refused to set up another side concubine wife, so the palace has given people down, hoping that a woman can give birth to an heir for him. The queen mother has given more than a dozen, the emperor has also rewarded twenty or thirty people, and even the queen has sent four beautiful maids, but these people are all low-status, just slaves and maids, and King Yan placed them casually. A large number of them were married to the guards or personal soldiers of the commoners under the King of Yan, and the remaining those who resolutely refused to marry were either sent to a remote courtyard to live alone (such as the four sent by Queen Cao), or under the tutelage of Princess Yan, they became the big and small stewards of the inner courtyard of the Yan Palace, which was quite capable.

King Yan was reluctant to let a woman other than Princess Yan give birth to his heir, but Princess Yan had been recuperating for many years, but she had never been able to conceive a second child, so the two accepted the reality that there was only one daughter in this life, Cheng Huan, and calmly faced the future heirs of the royal family. Now that King Yan had a dewy relationship before marrying his wife, Li Yaozhi gave birth to a son to him, and Li Yaozhi had a good relationship with Princess Yan, so their husband and wife happily accepted Xiao Rui's son. Princess Yan has never worried about concubines or anything, and King Yan is unwilling to let the Queen Mother or the Emperor point to a side concubine with a formal title to make trouble. As for the beauties given by the palace, he will receive as much as he comes, but how to arrange it after receiving it will be according to his own wishes. The queen mother and the emperor will not be angry with King Yan, his own son or brother, for the sake of these slaves and maids.

Although the Queen Mother once complained about Princess Yan, Queen Cao also based on old grievances - maybe there is also a little envy, jealousy and hatred - insinuated in front of people that Princess Yan Yue's family can't tolerate people and is not virtuous, but there are not many people who really blame Princess Yan. Second, the disposal of the beauties given in the palace has always been the appearance of King Yan. Princess Yan has always been a delicate woman who lives in a simple house and recuperates at home in front of outsiders. She neither refused to be given by the palace, but also arranged the food and lodging of these beauties, nor did she stop King Yan from seeing them, but King Yan was unwilling to take concubines. King Yan has an upright character and no two colors, does the world still force him to be a good person?

Xiao Rui felt that the relationship between King Yan and Princess Yan was very good, and he had the heart to follow suit. Xie Mulin asked what he would do if someone was given in the palace, and he replied casually. But it seems that the beloved girl is not very satisfied with his answer, could it be that she misunderstood him?

Xiao Ruiluo groaned, and then told Xie Mulin everything that King Yan told him, and said, "I think it's good for my father to do this." Even if outsiders think that I can't get oil and salt, and they don't want to listen to their arrangements, and they are angry, they just come at me and won't be angry with you. My father has already treated the princess like this, and if I do the same to you, they will have nothing else to say. You just have to be a good princess praised by everyone in peace, and you don't have to worry about other messy things. As long as my heart is yours, it is a beautiful woman who has been given thousands of children and eight hundred in the palace, so what does it have to do with us? It's just a girl rewarded by the elders, and those who are good to call will stay and send, and those who are not good to call will be sent away. The Queen Mother is my own grandmother, and the emperor is also my uncle, so she never blamed me for a few girls. ”

Xie Mulin blushed slightly, twisted a handkerchief in his hand, and although he didn't say anything, he was still quite happy in his heart. She tilted her head, glanced at Xiao Rui, and whispered, "Since you said so today, I will believe you once." Anyway, as you said, as long as your heart is mine, it doesn't matter how many people the palace gives. Wait until one day your heart changes by itself, even if the palace does not give people down, if you want a beauty, where can you find it? There are girls in the palace, and there is no shortage of beautiful ladies in the rich and noble families who have the heart to climb, and there are also small jasper and Qinglou Oiran among the people, but whenever your mind is no longer firm for a moment, there are people who can take advantage of loopholes.

"Rather than being wary of the palace giving people, I should only watch you do what you do. If you are single-minded, I will live with you wholeheartedly. If you change your mind, I won't want to die or live, but I can't treat you with sincerity anymore. Since then, just be a superficial couple with you, and I will never care about you anymore if I have someone behind my back, I will find things to pass the time by myself, and when you don't exist, you can mess with whoever you like! ”

Xiao Rui imagined that kind of picture, couldn't help but shiver, and hurriedly said: "That kind of thing will never happen, good Mulin, you must believe me!" ”

Xie Mulin pursed his lips and smiled: "I'll just look at it." How can this kind of thing be packed into tickets? If you want me to be convinced, you have to behave like a good man who walks the talk. Naturally, I don't doubt you. ”

Xiao Rui said: "I was originally a good man who matched his words and deeds and kept his promises. You won't have a chance to doubt me! After speaking, he paused, and looked at Xie Mulin cautiously, "That's ...... You're not going to object to the wedding date for next year, are you? The specific date can be discussed again. ”

Xie Mulin's face suddenly turned red again, and he said angrily: "You were coaxing you with my previous words? I'm just telling the truth. I have a brother and a sister in front of me, which of them is not at the age of marriage and has the best conditions? How could my parents get past them and marry me off first? There is no such reason! Instead of grinding me here, you should think about how to help my brothers and sisters start a family as soon as possible!

"The eldest brother's marriage, at least until the eldest princess Yongning's family goes to Beiping to see it properly, I don't know how long it will take to get married; The eldest sister is okay, the marriage contract has been decided, but Huang Juren will have to finish the exam next year before he can return to his hometown to complete the marriage; As for the second brother, he doesn't even have a blind date yet. I see, even if you go to our house as soon as you arrive in Beiping, my father will at most promise you to marry me first and marry you next year? I'm afraid it's still early! ”

Xiao Rui's face suddenly became bitter. The words of the sweetheart are reasonable and well-founded, and they cannot be refuted, so it is difficult to ...... Is there nothing he can do but accept reality?
