"Your Majesty, you see that the crown prince is not young now, and it is time to find a crown princess."

In the dark night, Queen Lin, who shared the same bed, sighed, and finally said the words that were held in her heart.

For a long time, there was no response, as if her words were spoken to the air.

It's just that when the emperor was unwilling to talk about this topic, Queen Lin could only hold back the words behind her and look at the moonlight outside the window.

"I didn't know about this, it's just that so many things have just happened in this court. It has only been long since the Imperial Doctor died, and if I let the prince marry, I will inevitably be gossiped about by those old-fashioned ministers. The court, which has finally settled down, must not be ruined because of this incident. ”

After a long period of tranquility, the emperor finally spoke, and his words were full of helplessness.

"Your Majesty, you are the emperor, the lord of a country, what you say and do, do you still have to look at the faces of those people? Besides, the death of this imperial doctor is not the emperor's harm, why should you take it so seriously. If you have to be cautious just because you have lost a courtier, then people are dying all the time in this world, and there will never be any happy events in the palace? ”

Although the queen's words were a little rough, they were indeed true.

If the royal family really wants to do a happy event, the ministers really don't have any reason to refute it.

The emperor could only shake his head silently: "You don't understand, things in this court are changing rapidly." Although I am the king of a country, there are many things that I can't help myself. That's it, tell you what to do. What you said today, I will think about it. ”

Hearing that there was a drama in the words, the queen couldn't help but get closer and continued: "If the emperor is worried about the prime minister, the concubine has an excellent idea here. Didn't they all say that the remaining only daughter of the Mo family was considered a righteous daughter by the prime minister? If the emperor gave this righteous daughter to the crown prince, it would not only make the prime minister's face shine, but also give the orphan girl of the Mo family a good place to go, and it would be able to block the mouths of those old ministers, I don't know what the emperor wants? ”

"Shut up, how can this matter in the court be touched by you, a woman, and a Taoist family?" An angry shout sounded, and the queen quickly closed her mouth.

After that, the emperor kept thinking about this matter in his mind until early in the morning.

When all the officials arrived, the emperor glanced at the prime minister below several times, and finally said slowly: "I heard that the prime minister recognized the orphan girl of the Mo family as his goddaughter?" ”

For a while, no one knew what the emperor meant, and the prime minister hurriedly knelt on the ground and said yes directly.

"A girl's family, lonely, although she has become your goddaughter, she will still be bullied by others after all. It's better to enter my royal family directly, with the protection of the royal family, you can naturally protect this orphan girl of the Mo family. This is the last thing I did for the Imperial Doctor. ”

When the emperor mentioned his predecessors, all the courtiers couldn't help but look at me, I look at you, but no one dared to speak.

It must be known that in this court, it has always been played by the ministers, and then discussed by everyone, and finally decided by the emperor.

The emperor has never taken the initiative to mention other things, and when he suddenly spoke at this time, everyone really couldn't guess what was going on, so they could only lie on the ground and not say a word.

"I thought about it for half a night last night, and now that the prince is old, it's time to find a princess. I look at the orphan daughter of the Mo family, it's good, her status is not low, and she is well-read, I don't know what Zhong Aiqing thinks? ”

Seeing that everyone looked stunned, the emperor no longer hid it, and directly said his thoughts.

"Your Majesty, no!"

The two voices came out in unison, and they actually came from the mouths of the prime minister and Xiao Mingqian.

Seeing Xiao Mingqian take a step forward, he took the lead and said, "Father, you have made a marriage contract for your son and the daughter in the prime minister's mansion before. Although Leng Leyin is no longer alive, Mo Wanyin is now the prime minister's goddaughter. This goddaughter is also a daughter, and naturally she also wants to become the wife of her son, how can her father marry her son's wife to the prince? ”

In three or two sentences, the emperor was directly convicted of several crimes.

If the emperor insists on marrying Mo Wanyin to Xiao Chumad, it will be a reversal.

For Xiao Chufang, it is to snatch his brother's wife, all of which are despised by everyone.

"Ahem." Gonggong Yuan couldn't help coughing lightly, making this meeting not so embarrassing, "Actually, the emperor didn't mean to settle this matter, but to ask for everyone's opinions." ”

Those shrewd ministers immediately realized that something was wrong with the matter, and hurriedly followed behind Gonggong Yuan to explain.

The emperor got down the stairs, so naturally he didn't mention it anymore.

After that, he said something about the border, and everyone retreated.

After Xiao Chuyan left the main hall, he did not go straight to his room, but came directly to Queen Lin's bedroom.

Without waiting for the attendants in front to make a report, Xiao Chufang rushed in with great momentum.

Those people who were supposed to be guarding the door, seeing Xiao Chufang's angry appearance, did not dare to stop him directly, for fear that one accidentally injured the prince and ended up with a crime of intentionally hurting the prince.

At this time, the queen had just finished washing, and was slowly walking towards the door with the support of Mama Wu.

I saw a black shadow rush up, and the door was kicked open.

The rude behavior shocked her and she was directly stunned in place, and before she could say a word, she was preempted by the other party: "Queen Mother, Yue'er has a request for you, this is indeed a fact." But she is her, I am me, if you think carefully and let my father choose a concubine for me, don't blame me for being unkind to you! ”

When the words fell, Xiao Chufang slapped directly on the table next to the door. With a secret force in his hand, the table that was enough to support the weight of three people was directly shattered into several pieces.

The strong impact continued to invade the queen's brain, so that she could only be slightly stunned in place, and she did not react for several seconds.

But the queen is still the queen after all, and she soon understood the ins and outs of the matter, and her mood gradually calmed down.

Although Xiao Chu was crazy and did such a terrifying thing, it would only be that.

After all, she is also the queen of the day and the mother of a country no matter what.

According to Xiao Chufang's temper, if he really wanted to teach himself a lesson, he would definitely not be as simple as the slap just falling on the table.

"Prince, I know that you have always disliked me because of my biological mother's affairs, so I put up with it. But you rushed to my mansion today for no reason and made a lot of noise, if this matter is known by the emperor, you ......."

Before he finished speaking, Xiao Chufang showed a sharp gaze, like a blade, and stabbed directly in the direction of the queen.

"Don't use my father to pressure me, I didn't do anything wrong in this matter, if you tell your father about it, I can't guarantee that I will do anything. But don't worry, that kind of childish thing of murder and provocation, Prince Ben naturally disdains to do. It's the child in the womb of the third sister, and I don't know what ...... is."

"Enough!" The queen shouted, and even she was vaguely frightened.

Since Xiao Xueqing became pregnant, Queen Lin was cautious everywhere, afraid that the other party would threaten her with this child. So this time it was just a little reminder by the emperor's side, but I didn't expect the emperor to be so fast.

"Rest assured, I have self-knowledge and know what to say and what not to say. It's just that you also have to know that in this palace, I'm not the only one who wants to deal with you. I can control the people on my side, but the people in other places, then I can't guarantee it. Queen Lin finally gave the other party a guarantee, for fear that Xiao Chu would be crazy and tell all the things seriously, so all the things she experienced during this time were in vain.

Xiao Chuyan also knew that the queen would not take risks without permission, and she was just here today to vent the anger in her heart.

Seeing that the queen had already said this, she naturally didn't stay any longer, and turned around and left.

"Fourth Prince, what do you mean by that?" The prime minister had just entered the mansion with his front foot, and he received a lot of dowry gifts from Xiao Mingqian's hands on the back foot.

Looking at the red wooden boxes piled up all over the room, the prime minister couldn't help frowning slightly.

Although Leng Leyin's death was not directly related to Xiao Mingqian, if the two had never been engaged, the rest of the story would naturally not have happened.

Seeing that the previous daughter passed away from his voice, the daughter who recognized him later, no matter how he said it, he had to take good care of it.

"Prime Minister, I think I've made it very clear before in the court. This goddaughter is also a daughter, since my father has decided that your daughter will marry me, then we must really fulfill it, otherwise it will be against the holy decree, and if we disobey the king's order, we will be killed. ”

Xiao Mingqian smiled at the corners of his mouth throughout the whole process, but there was no trace of tenderness in the words he spoke.

"How dare you threaten me?" The prime minister's brows furrowed slightly, obviously extremely dissatisfied with this.

Mo Wanyin, who was on the side, had already heard the rumors, and was hiding behind a pillar to hear what the two of them said.

If you can become a woman who is the crown prince, it is certainly a good thing. It's just that he has lost his body to Xiao Mingqian, and there is no other way to choose.

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, Mo Wanyin immediately rushed forward and blocked the middle of the two: "Godfather, fourth prince, don't quarrel." ”

The main owner has already come out, and it is pointless for the two to continue arguing like this. Xiao Mingqian could only twist his body in other directions, as if he hadn't seen the person in front of him at all.

"Godfather, I already know everything about it, and there is something I have always wanted to tell you." Mo Wanyin tried her best to say in the gentlest words, for fear of angering the prime minister, "Actually, in my heart, I also like the four princes more." It is rare that the four princes are willing to come here to propose, and I am naturally very happy in my heart. I also hope that my father can fulfill the two of us. ”

The prime minister obviously didn't expect things to develop like this, and couldn't help but turn his head slightly stunned.

After a long time, he nodded, and accepted Xiao Mingqian's dowry today.
