East Palace.

The crown princess Ji sat on top with her head propped up, her expression heavy.

Outside, someone from the palace came in to report: "Niangniang, His Royal Highness the King of the County has come down." ”

The crown princess did not respond, and the maidservant on the side hurriedly beckoned: "Please invite His Royal Highness the King of the County to enter the palace." ”

The palace people responded and withdrew from the main hall.

After a while, the king of Qinghe County walked into the palace and greeted the crown princess: "Mother." ”

Ji Shi said "um", raised his head, and stretched out his slightly frowning brows.

"Qinghe, you're here." She said, Chongqinghe County King raised his hand.

The king of Qinghe County responded and walked over to her and sat down.

"I heard that your fifteenth aunt invited that Miss Li San into the palace?" The crown princess Ji looked disgusted, and her voice couldn't hear any waves.

"Yes." The king of Qinghe replied, "The fifteenth aunt asked Miss Li San to come into the palace to talk to her. ”

In fact, the king of Qinghe County is older than the fifteenth princess, but his generation is one generation lower, so he mentioned that the fifteenth princess must be respectful.

This is the basic cultivation as the son of the prince, if the king of Qinghe is disrespectful to the fifteenth princess, he will be reprimanded by the prince.

The king of Qinghe did not dare to rebel against the prince in this matter, so he has always treated the fifteenth princess with the courtesy of an elder.

"What did you say?" The crown princess asked, but she was not really curious, she turned to look at the king of Qinghe County, "Qinghe, your father wants you to be friendly with the Li Mansion, that Miss Li San...... What do you think? ”

After all, the crown princess is the nominal mother of the king of Qinghe County, and she has no children under her knees, and she has been treating the king of Qinghe County as her own child for more than ten years.

The king of Qinghe laughed at himself: "What do you think, does it matter?" ”

The corners of his lips lifted slightly, revealing a mocking smile.

The crown princess was stunned for a moment and sighed.

"The mother concubine can't do anything about this." She said, her eyes helpless, "Your father needs the officials, and he needs the Li family...... To get the Li family, only Miss Li San can ......"

King Qinghe smiled bitterly.

"Yes, mother, you can't help it, son, you can't help it." He said.

At this moment, the king of Qinghe County revealed his true feelings and showed his sorrow in front of others.

He is the king of the county, with a noble status, and everyone envies him, but he has his own helplessness and his own sorrows.

He can't control his marriage, he can't fight for himself, he can only accept his father's arrangement.

Fortunately, now he found a reason to convince himself to comply.

The crown princess stretched out her hand to pull him and pat his hand.

"Good boy, don't be sad, and don't hate your father." He said, "Your father...... He has his own problems, and if it weren't for that, he would never have offered you to marry that country girl with no name. ”

In the end, there was some ridicule and disdain, obviously, the crown princess didn't like this Miss Li San, but because of the prince, she kept silent.

"During this time, the movement on King Ping's side is getting bigger and bigger, and His Majesty's trip to Ansan has not been put on the agenda, your father is ...... I'm afraid ......."

The crown princess couldn't go on, covered her face and shook her head and sighed.

In front of the prince, she never dared to say this, for fear of touching the prince's face and displeasing the prince.

King Qinghe snorted softly, and the corners of his lips moved slightly.

"Father, I never cared about my sons, nor did I care about my mother...... He only cares about himself. ”

"I remember when I was a child, Erchen and Zhou Yunzhen fought, and he never helped Erchen ......"

"The mother concubine has done so much for her father, but the father doesn't appreciate it at all......"

The crown princess covered her forehead as she listened, and rubbed it gently.

"Yes, I have done so many things for him, but he still ...... Resentment of me ......"

The crown princess turned into muttering as she spoke, and the king of Qinghe didn't hear what she said, and he didn't really care what the princess said.

This concubine of his, she can do anything for her father, she can't help him.

The crown princess saw that his expression gradually faded, and said helplessly: "Qinghe, this matter has not been decided, and there is still a chance to change your father's plan." ”

In the end, it was the child she brought up, and the crown princess couldn't bear it.

"If you really don't like Miss Li San, the concubine will find a way for you." She comforted the king of Qinghe, "Don't worry, don't go against your father, after a while, the position of Shangshu will be clear......"

"Mother." The king of Qinghe raised his head, "The sons are willing to share the worries of their fathers, you don't have to offend your father for the sake of your sons." ”

He said, "Miss Li San is not bad, good-looking, and well-behaved......

"Really?" The crown princess was slightly surprised, "How did the concubine hear that Miss Li San seems to like to be strong?" ”

The reason why the crown princess said this was because of Ji Yinxian.

Ji Yinxian was very disliked by Li Mingyun because of Li Mingyun's limelight in the Plum Garden, so he didn't say much about Li Mingyun in front of the crown princess.

The king of Qinghe County was stunned, then shook his head and said: "No, Miss Li San doesn't like to be in the limelight, she likes to stand quietly in the corner and listen to others." ”

He observed Li Mingyun and found that the woman had nothing else to do but do so, as if she herself was standing on a pillar in the house.

"Really?" The crown princess was still a little unconvinced, and asked, "Then last time in the Plum Garden, Miss Li San won the competition, isn't it just ......?"

"I don't know here." The king of Qinghe County said, "Although Erchen was in Meiyuan at that time, it was only after their competition, why Miss Li San wanted to compete, Erchen is not clear." ”

He didn't care about this Miss Li San before, so he didn't ask.

The crown princess nodded, "um".

"The mother concubine listened to Xian'er, Xian'er was in the plum garden at that time, can you say hello to her?" She said, smiling slightly.

The crown princess likes this niece very much, and thinks that she is good-looking, talented, and has strengths, so she is more interested in her and is willing to promote her on weekdays.

She originally intended to let the king of Qinghe County marry Ji Yinxian, but later learned that the two had no friendship, and the prince made another arrangement, so the matter was stopped.

The king of Qinghe County knew her plan, nodded and said, "Yes, Miss Ji writes very well, and the son is ashamed." ”

These words pleased the crown princess, and she covered her lips with a smile, and her eyes sparkled with a smile.

"Xian'er has learned to practice calligraphy since she was a child, and even her mother is envious of that handwriting." She said, "Qinghe, I heard that Miss Li San's handwriting is also good, have you seen it?" ”

King Qinghe smiled: "I've seen it, Miss Li's words are on par with Miss Ji." ”

He said, "But Qinghe still thinks that Miss Ji's handwriting is better." ”

Of course, this is just a rhetoric for the king of Qinghe County to please the crown princess, and Li Mingyun's handwriting is better than that of Miss Ji, which is understandable.

The crown princess smiled.

"What the hell is there?" She has the honor of being honored.

This is her niece, the daughter of Ji Mansion, some people identify with her, that is, they identify with Ji Mansion, and the crown princess is naturally happy, even if the other party is the king of Qinghe County.

The two of them casually said a few good words, and the crown princess returned to the topic just now: "The mother concubine knows that you don't like Miss Li San, but you can agree first, and then find a way to get rid of Miss Li San when your father is in a stable position." ”

"Qinghe, the mother concubine will definitely find a way for you."

King Qinghe shook his head: "Mother, there is really no need, the son is willing." ”

He said, lowering his eyes, "This time, the retainer is not reluctant, he really agrees with his father's arrangement, Miss Li San is very good." ”

He said it very plainly, without the previous anger and helplessness, leaving only the last indifference.

The crown princess was stunned: "Really willing?" Not reluctantly? ”

She sat up straight: "Qinghe, it's because of Miss Li San, right?" You're planning to marry her! ”

King Qinghe nodded: "Yes, make a marriage contract first." ”

He laughed coldly in his heart, but his face did not show it.

Using Li Mingyun, he will definitely be able to deal with Zhou Yunzhen! What he has to do now is to get close to Li Mingyun, and then take the opportunity to harm Zhou Yunzhen.

He had a hunch that Zhou Yunzhen would die miserably because of Li Mingyun!

His bland expression deceived the crown princess.

The crown princess looked at him and smiled with relief.

"Good boy, in that case, the mother concubine should also help you see how she is." She whispered.

King Qinghe was immersed in his own reverie and did not notice what she was saying.
