Chapter 660: The Crown Prince Has a Disagreement in Choosing a Concubine
The queen saw Fu Xiaojiu's embarrassment, and said empathetically: "This palace just has nothing to do with that child, since he has already left, there is no need to worry about it anymore." ”
Fu Xiaojiu hurriedly went down the steps, "What Niangniang said is very true. You are still young, you have a good physical foundation, and you will have a chance in the future. ”
The queen accepted Fu Xiaojiu's comfort, and said softly: "I thought that your hospital should be closed in the next two days, so I wanted to call you to talk to me." ”
Fu Xiaojiu saw that the queen had diverted the topic, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and said with a light smile: "The concubine also wants to enter the palace to visit Niangniang after the medical hall is closed." The concubine has a lot of trivial matters recently, so she came to visit Niangniang, and she hopes that Niangniang will not be blamed. ”
The queen smiled kindly, "I know that you are a busy person, not only busy with medical treatment, but also have to help your husband treat criminals and help him investigate the case. ”
Fu Xiaojiu joked: "Queen Mother, you are discerning, even if the concubine does not come to visit you, the concubine seems to be in front of you all the time." ”
The queen said yearningly at this time: "By the way, I also heard that your family has come to the capital, and this time your family will be lively for the New Year." ”
Fu Xiaojiu nodded and said: "Yes, the concubine just wants us to be stable in the capital, so let them come for the New Year, so that my in-laws can be happier." ”
The queen couldn't help but praise Fu Xiaojiu: "There are not many virtuous and sensible daughters-in-law like you, your in-laws are really blessed." ”
"Qi Yu Niangniang, His Royal Highness King Zhao asks to see you."
The eunuch suddenly reported at the door.
"He's coming?" The queen's slender eyebrows frowned slightly.
Fu Xiaojiu immediately stood up, "Niangniang, His Royal Highness King Zhao must have something to look for you, and the concubine will retire first." ”
"No, we've only said a few words, don't leave yet, even if he has something to do with me, he won't have to do anything." After the queen finished speaking, she said to the eunuch who had come to report it, "Let him come in." ”
Fu Xiaojiu had no choice but to sit down.
King Zhao strode in and walked in high spirits, he saw Fu Xiaojiu here, and smiled politely at her.
"The son-in-law has said goodbye to the queen mother." King Zhao saluted the queen very respectfully.
The queen also smiled at him very kindly, "Zhao'er is exempt." Aren't you preparing for the canonization gift? How did you have the kung fu to come to this palace? ”
King Zhao replied respectfully: "The son is here to discuss the choice of the crown princess with the queen mother. ”
The queen suddenly realized: "It turns out that you are here for this, you see that I have forgotten such an important thing with this memory." ”
Fu Xiaojiu was a little blindsided, she was too busy recently, and she didn't know that King Zhao was about to become the crown prince, and she was preparing for a big wedding.
The queen looked curious, "These noble girls are all from good families, no matter who you fancy is good." Who do you really have your eye on? ”
King Zhao lowered his head and replied a little shyly: "Erchen takes a fancy to the daughter of the old general of Luqiu, Luqiu Guangrui. ”
General Luqiu is the in-law of King Zhenting, and after Fu Xiaojiu heard King Zhao's choice, he knew his thoughts.
He wanted to have a closer relationship with King Zhenting, and it could be seen that he valued generals more than King Jie.
The queen naturally saw King Zhao's thoughts, but she set the choice for the crown princess, and the emperor also looked at the list, since the daughter of the Luqiu family was not listed out of the candidates, it can be seen that the emperor also agreed with the possible choice of King Zhao.
The queen said in an appreciative tone: "This palace has also heard that Luqiu Guangrui is both talented and famous, and it is said that there is an endless stream of people who go to her house to ask for relatives. Her brother married the daughter of the King of Zhenting, and she will not be bad as a sister, and she must be as good as rumored. ”
King Zhao raised his head, with joy in his eyebrows and eyes, "To be honest, Erchen didn't see Miss Luqiu too clearly that day, but he saw that she was the most generous among those noble girls, so he chose her." ”
The queen said with a smile: "Three days later, it will be the canonization ceremony, and after the canonization ceremony, you should get married, and this year in our palace will be very lively." ”
"Congratulations, Your Highness!" Fu Xiaojiu stood up and congratulated King Zhao.
King Zhao bowed slightly to Fu Xiaojiu, and said to the queen: "Since the queen mother has no objection to the person chosen by the son, then the minister will not bother you to talk to Mrs. Yuxiu." Sons and daughters retire! ”
The queen nodded, "You go back first, you've been busy these days." ”
As soon as King Zhao left, Fu Xiaojiu said: "The concubine didn't know that the prince was about to be canonized and the prince was about to get married. ”
Fu Xiaojiu actually secretly complained about Wan Lin in his heart, he must have known that King Zhao was going to be officially canonized as the crown prince, but he didn't tell himself about such a big thing.
The queen seemed to see Fu Xiaojiu's thoughts, and said slowly: "According to Your Majesty's intentions, he will only issue an edict today to announce to the world that he will be crowned the crown prince in three days, so it's not too late for you to know, and your father-in-law is afraid that he won't know it." ”
Fu Xiaojiu said with a smile: "It turns out that it's not that the concubine is lonely and unheard, that's good, that's good." ”
I thought that I could have a good conversation with the queen this time, but after a while, another eunuch reported that Concubine Yun was coming.
As soon as the queen heard that Yun Guifei was coming, she couldn't help but feel a little disgust in her eyes, and said in a cold tone: "She must have come to talk about the crown princess." Let her in. ”
Fu Xiaojiu wanted to leave again, but as soon as she stood up, the queen motioned for her to sit down.
Fu Xiaojiu had no choice but to sit down again.
Yun Guifei was dressed up very festively today, wearing pink and bright velvet flowers on her head, and the dress on her body was also a gorgeous pattern of flowers.
really relies on her bright and charming appearance, otherwise ordinary people will be unbearable to dress like this.
"The Queen's Mother, Jin An."
However, to Fu Xiaojiu's surprise, Concubine Yun, who seemed to be flamboyant and proud, was very obedient when she saw the queen.
"Sister, please get up." Although the queen smiled, there was no smile in her eyes.
However, after Fu Xiaojiu saluted Yun Guifei respectfully, he only received her a slightly disdainful look, which made Fu Xiaojiu as disgusting as if he had eaten a fly.
Fu Xiaojiu could see that Yun Guifei was deliberately making her uncomfortable, who let Yun Guifei and King Zhao's mother and son try to woo her together, she didn't buy it.
Now that King Zhao is almost a sure candidate for the crown prince and the future emperor of Dachen, Concubine Yun no longer has to woo her.
If Yun Guifei still doesn't like Fu Xiaojiu, she can even find a reason to trouble her at will.
Fu Xiaojiu broke out in a cold sweat in her palms as she thought about it, but she also touched the token given to her by the queen on her waist.
As long as the queen is safe and sound, her token is a talisman for her body, even if Concubine Yun dares to trouble her, she has to look at the rules and regulations of this token.
With this token in hand, Fu Xiaojiu is down-to-earth.
The queen guessed why the Yun noblewoman came, and asked directly: "Sister, are you here for the crown princess?" ”
Concubine Yun also replied very directly, "Sister is right, the concubine is here for this." ”
The queen smiled with satisfaction, "Zhao'er has a good vision, and she chose the daughter of General Luqiu's family." Lu Qiu Guangrui's appearance and talent are very outstanding, I think she is indeed a good match for Zhao'er. ”
After the queen finished speaking, Concubine Yun Guifei actually said: "Sister, please forgive the concubine for being unreasonable, the concubine does not think that Luqiu Guangrui is a suitable candidate for the crown princess." ”
Yun Guifei and King Zhao's mother and son actually had a disagreement on the choice of the crown princess, which was something that neither the queen nor Fu Xiaojiu expected.
Fu Xiaojiu didn't dare to speak, but the queen immediately asked, "Sister, don't you take a fancy to Luqiu Guangrui?" So who do you think is more suitable to be the crown princess than her? ”
Concubine Yun Guifei hesitated for a moment before saying, "The concubine doesn't dare to hide her mother, the concubine thinks that the most suitable person for Zhao'er is the daughter of my second brother's family." ”
Speaking of this, Concubine Yun explained: "It's not that the concubine is selfish, she has to let her brother's child sit in such a noble position. is that the child's character and talent are more outstanding than Miss Luqiu, and she and Zhao'er have known each other since childhood, and they are childhood sweethearts. It's just that she's a little younger, and if she gets married, she may have to wait a year or two before she can have children. ”
After Yun Guifei finished speaking, she bowed her head and was silent.
After listening to Yun Guifei's words, Fu Xiaojiu really admired her courage.
Could it be that after King Zhao married his daughter-in-law, he still had to keep a distance from his daughter-in-law, and wait for her to grow up before performing the ceremony of husband and wife?
If this is an ordinary person's child daughter-in-law, this is to choose a queen for the future emperor, how can it be so reasonable?
Besides, there are so many candidates for the crown princess, any of them is more suitable to be the crown princess than Dou Xianxu's daughter, Dou Xianxu's daughter is just a full number, because she is young, and King Zhao only treats her as a sister and will not consider her at all.
The queen thought that the reason why King Zhao could come to her to choose the crown princess was because their mother and son had already negotiated.
Who would have thought that the opinions of their mother and son were not consistent at all, and the queen couldn't help but have a headache.
Queen: If you mother and son don't discuss it, can you discuss it in private? What's the deal with me sandwiched in the middle? Shall I go and offend people?
The queen tried her best to remain calm and said: "Sister, this palace doesn't think you have any selfish intentions, but Zhao'er just came to tell this palace that he has chosen Lu Qiu Guangrui to be the crown princess." Lu Qiu Guangrui is not bad in terms of family background or appearance, do you really want Zhao'er to make another choice? ”
Yun Guifei raised her head, made a pitiful look and said, "Sister, although the concubine is Zhao'er's biological mother, the concubine is soft-spoken, and he can't listen to what she says. I also asked my sister to help persuade and persuade Zhao'er to make a choice again. ”
Fu Xiaojiu clearly saw that after listening to Yun Guifei's words, the corners of the queen's eyes twitched slightly, and she guessed that the queen must be secretly scolding Yun Guifei in her heart.
The queen said with a sad face: "Sister, you are embarrassing your sister." Although Zhao'er is a filial child, he has grown up, and he is still assertive and stubborn. I'm afraid that what he decided will not be easily changed, right? If you really feel uncomfortable, you should go to Your Majesty to help you persuade Zhao'er. ”
