Since this is the case, then she can only start from Xuanwei's side.

It's always okay to put it off for a while.

Xu Zhaoyi saw that there was a faint sign of confrontation between the two, so she smiled and said: "The concubine has recently found a new chef in the Western Regions, and Emperor Fang and the concubine have tasted the cook's skills, which is really good." Instead of talking about things that don't matter for the new year, why not have a snack? ”

The emperor shook her hand helplessly, and his eyes signaled that she was obedient.

Shen Yan looked at the love between the two, there was no embarrassment on his face, and said steadily: "Brother Huang came to me for these things?" ”

"From tomorrow onwards, you will stay in the Qingsi Palace and start learning the rules and etiquette, until the New Year's Festival when the princess of the country is crowned, the etiquette is complicated, and you can't make a mistake. You've been seriously ill for years, and I didn't ask much of you before, but now I can't indulge anymore. ”

The emperor's words sounded irony, but for so many years, he ignored Kang and Emperor Ji, and it was also one of the sources of tragedy.

"You stand down first."

Seeing that Shen Yan's face was still faint, the emperor didn't want to keep her.

Although he felt guilty, he didn't look at Shen Yan's face.

When Shen Yan went out, Xu Yu stretched out his hand and put his hand on the emperor's shoulder, and said delicately: "Your Majesty, do you really plan to marry the emperor to Cui Min?" Cui's power was finally recovered, and now a virtuous concubine and a Cui Shilang are difficult enough, if you marry an emperor, this heart will fly to the sky. ”

"The queen and the Cui family both want Kang He to marry into their family, but I am not as good as they want."

The emperor stopped Xu Yu and whispered fiercely in his arms.

After the emperor married, the concubine had to stay away from the court, but Kang He was not an ordinary emperor, she and the emperor were the last royal bloodline. Once she became pregnant, the child was kept in royal blood.

This stake is big enough.

Xu Yu was soft on the surface but sneered in his heart, the emperor's thought was really wrong, and the queen and the virtuous concubine were not happy to marry the emperor into their own family to be an ancestor.

"Does Your Majesty have a candidate in mind?"

Since the emperor summoned Shen Yan and Xu Zhaoyi, it was not just to chat with her.

"Do you know Jiang Cheng?"

He looked down at Xu Yu's hands, delicate and slender, and his nails were round and painted with dancome. The emperor played with Xu Yu's hand and asked casually.

Xu Yu chuckled twice and said: "Jiangcheng is rich in products, and the cardinal pavilion to which it belongs has always made some tricks and gadgets to send them to the palace, and there are a lot of things sent to the palace every year, and the concubines naturally know it." It is said that there are many merchants in Jiangcheng, and it can be regarded as a rich place. ”

The emperor was very satisfied with her answer, but the smile on the corner of his mouth was gone, and he said lightly: "Jiangcheng seems to have abundant products, but it is only limited to gold and silver money, to put it bluntly, it is a money bag. ”

Thanks to Jiangcheng, he is a money bag, if he is a soldier, where can the emperor tolerate it? One King of Qin is enough trouble, and with one city lord, wouldn't it be a panic.

"Why did Your Majesty talk about Jiangcheng?"

Xu Yu pulled her hair, looked at the messy folds on the table, and asked.

"Ah Yu, Xu Jin, the city lord of Jiangcheng, is a smart person, talented, knows how to advance and retreat, and has no military power, so he is the best choice for the emperor to marry. Moreover, his surname is Xu. I want you to take this opportunity to let you confess to Xu Jin, and if you enter the Xu family in Huizhou, I will be able to canonize you as a concubine. ”

The emperor's words were sincere at this time, his eyes were sincere, Xu Yu was stunned, left two tears, and said softly: "Your Majesty, the concubine doesn't care about her position, as long as she can be by Your Majesty's side." ”

She has always been arrogant and rude, and now she cries twice, and the emperor only thinks it is very cute.

"If only you were smarter, I wouldn't have to plan everything for you. You are arrogant and willful by nature, I liked you like you in the past, but now I hope that you will think more. ”

His gaze was soft, different from the disguise of the courtiers, it was sincere love.

Xu Yu lowered his head, his forehead touched his forehead, and his eyes looked straight at him, this man, five years ago, domineeringly broke into her peaceful life, domineeringly gave the so-called grace.

Does he love her?

Maybe it's love.

"Your Majesty, as long as you are here, the concubine will be satisfied."

She closed her eyes and sighed, bowing her head and breathing, she could clearly feel the emperor's breathing much weaker than before.

Like a candle in the wind, it will be extinguished at some point.

"That Western Regions cook, let's send it out of the palace first."

The emperor felt Xu Yu's affection, and his heart softened, but he still said this.

When Xu Yu heard this, he felt a little painful, and said pitifully: "The cook was found by the concubine after a long time of searching, Your Majesty, you can't just send it away, right?" ”

"You, King Qin is now patrolling Shacheng, you find a cook from the Western Regions to come over, it is difficult to ensure that Kanghe will not think much about it. When I was young, Kang He's admiration for King Qin was real, and I wasn't sure if this admiration would have spoiled because of something. ”

Hearing the emperor's words, Xu Yu seemed to be surprised and guilty, and whispered: "The concubine will go back and send the cook away, so that the emperor will eat happily, and think of King Qin in her heart." ”

"That's all you have a little temper."

The emperor was amused by her, scratched the tip of her nose indulgently, and said.

……

The emperor's urgent summoning of her was just a process, and the will to crown the eldest princess of the country had not yet been formalized, but the news of the selection of concubines for her had spread throughout the entire Daming Palace.

Everyone in the palace stared at the movement of the Qingsi Palace, for fear of missing any gossip. People stared at the Qing Si Palace, and secretly began to gossip about who would be the husband of the emperor.

There are many sons of families of appropriate age in Chang'an City.

The next day, the ceremonial grandmother appeared in the Qingsi Hall early in the morning.

In order to avoid problems with the etiquette process, the emperor specially transferred the four grandmothers who had served in the Zichen Hall to the Qingsi Hall to be responsible for the etiquette of the emperor's recent days.

Shen Yan was very irritable, but in order to survive in the palace safely, he had to start learning etiquette from the four grandmothers.

"Lonely is about to be sealed, and I don't understand some etiquette, and I hope that the grandmothers can teach carefully."

Shen Yan went to the side hall after dressing up, and the scenery was serving refreshments, and several grandmothers were old goblins in the palace for many years, and they all took the teacup with a light smile at this time, with a kind face.

Hearing Shen Yan's words, several people stood up from the seat and bowed down.

"Get up, there aren't so many vain courtesies in the Qingsi Palace."

When Shen Yan sat down, Mama Fang took a few books on the table and handed them to Xiaoxing who was standing beside Shen Yan, and said, "This is the book of the Ministry of Rites about the canonization ceremony of the eldest princess, and the old slave specially took it for the emperor to study. ”

This book is four thick, and Shen Yan closed his eyes a little unbearably after looking at it.

She's really well-read now.

"Good."

Shen Yan still forced a smile and nodded in affirmation. The grandmothers were also very happy to see Shen Yan so good, and they were quite confident that they would complete the task assigned by the emperor.
