When Lin Yue and the others returned to the palace banquet, the performance at the palace banquet was not over yet, and Lin Yue felt tired of the emperor.

After she sat on her hungry chair, Li Wanyan couldn't help but ask, "Fourth sister, where have you been?" How did you go for so long? ”

Lin Yue looked embarrassed, "This palace is too big, and I got lost when I walked, so I came back a little late." ”

"That's it, it's good to come back, there are already many young ladies on this stage who have gone up to perform, and it's almost over." Li Wanyan said.

As soon as she heard that it was going to be over, Lin Yue's eyes lit up, this dinner was very boring, just like the school leader's admonition, it was the most boring, it was better to lie in bed and sleep.

Seeing that she was happy, Li Wanyan advised: "You must pay attention to dignity later, don't lose your sense of proportion in front of the saint, this is a rare opportunity, if Your Majesty takes a fancy to you, you can be a concubine." ”

Lin Yue puffed up and said: "What's so good about being a concubine, there are so many rules to follow, and I'm not comfortable at all." ”

Hearing her naïve thoughts, Li Wanyan's heart was full of mockery, but for the sake of her own safety, she still persuaded: "If you are a concubine, there will be a lot of beautiful clothes to wear, and there are also a lot of delicious dishes and snacks, which cannot be eaten outside the palace, and I will also enter the palace, so I may not be able to accompany you in the future." ”

"Then I want to be with my eldest sister, and I also want to enter the palace, but I don't know anything, and the emperor won't take a fancy to me, right?" Lin Yue said without confidence.

"It's okay, try it and don't worry, you just need to show your best side, maybe Your Majesty will choose you." Li Wanyan encouraged.

Lin Yue smiled and nodded, "Okay, I listen to the eldest sister, I will be obedient, behave better, and strive to make Your Majesty take a fancy to me." ”

Li Wanyan smiled with satisfaction, and then moved her head.

Li Xiaotong, who was behind them, heard this, and her heart was even more jealous, Li Wanyan was a concubine, a treasure of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and she could accept it if she could enter the palace.

But why can Li Xinyue too? That Li Xinyue is just a country girl who has just been found, and she doesn't know anything about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, why is she so partial to help her, she really can't stand it.

Although she felt that Li Xinyue didn't know anything, she had to admit that that face was still okay, if the emperor really chose her because of her face, then Li Xinyue's status would be higher than her in the future, which she couldn't accept.

The bad water in her heart began to surge again, and she was planning to use some method to make Li Xinyue not be favored by the emperor.

Jun Huaiyu looked at the beauties who were performing, his eyes were tired, he looked away, looked at the eighth prince Jun Haoxuan and said, "Eighth brother, there are so many official women, what can the eighth brother fancy?" ”

"Back to the imperial brother, the younger brother is young and has no plans to start a family, and the younger brother has thanked the imperial brother for his kindness." Jun Haoxuan replied in an official tone.

It was this set of rhetoric again, Jun Huaiyu's eyes were a little impatient, and he looked at Concubine Xian and said, "Concubine Xian, which of these women do you think is worthy of my eighth brother?" ”

"Brother ...... Emperor"

Jun Huaiyu raised his hand to stop, "Eighth brother, you are not too young, it is time to start a family, only when you have a family and a business, and a woman takes care of you, can you rest assured that you are a brother." ”

What he meant was obviously that the decision was made, and Jun Haoxuan didn't dare to say more.

This was the case last time when Xiao Aofeng was the master, Jun Huaiyu chose to marry in order to restrict him and prevent him from joining forces with others, but Xiao Aofeng refused to marry.

The general who holds real power is still in this fate, how dare he disobey Jun Huaiyu's will again, lest Jun Huaiyu feel that he is a threat to him and find a way to get rid of him.

"The younger brother is in charge of everything." Jun Haoxuan said respectfully.

Hearing this, the solemnity in Jun Huaiyu's eyes dissipated a little.

Concubine Xian was asked by him, thought about it, and replied with a smile: "Your Majesty, I think Wanyan is good, she is my brother's daughter-in-law, dignified and generous, her identity is fully worthy of being the concubine of the Eighth Emperor Brother, what does Your Majesty think?" ”

Jun Huaiyu's black eyes stared at Concubine Xian's body for a few seconds, then he looked at Jun Haoxuan and asked with a smile: "Concubine Xian is right, Wanyan is indeed excellent, and you are also a good match for the eighth brother, why don't I marry her for you?" ”

He knew Concubine Xian, and when he heard Concubine Xian make this suggestion just now, he thought that Concubine Xian had seen the careful thoughts in his own heart, so he thought about pushing Li Wanyan to Jun Haoxuan.

Whether he wants to accept Li Wanyan as a concubine or not, Li Wanyan must not marry Jun Haoxuan, otherwise the prime minister's faction will be tied to Jun Haoxuan, and at that time, his throne will really hang.

But when he looked at Concubine Xian like that, it didn't seem to be because of these, he just felt that the two of them were suitable.

Jun Huaiyu thought to herself, too, Concubine Xian is simple-minded, where do she understand national affairs, otherwise she would not have made this suggestion, she definitely never thought of serving a husband with her niece, but she felt that her niece was the best woman and should be matched.

There is no one else in this world who is his younger brother, so he made this suggestion.

Jun Haoxuan saw Jun Huaiyu's smile, and panicked, although he also wanted to join forces with the prime minister, he must not be so open-minded, otherwise he would soon become the next person to be destroyed.

He hurriedly refused: "Thank you for your kindness, but my brother thinks I'm not worthy of Miss Li, not to mention that my brother already has someone he likes in his heart, and he asked Brother Huang to fulfill his brother's wish." ”

Hearing this, the smile on Jun Huaiyu's face was still hanging, but this time it was not as cold as last time.

Li Yi on the other side also breathed a sigh of relief, he had been planning for so long, if he really became with the Eighth Prince, then his Li family would become the target of public criticism, and it was very dangerous.

The reason for this crisis was because of Concubine Xian, which made him a little dissatisfied with Concubine Xian, he looked at Li Wanyan, and his eyes signaled that she should guard against Concubine Xian.

Li Wanyan nodded heavily, she now understood what her mother told her before, sure enough, my aunt just didn't want me to compete with her for favor, so she wanted to match me with the eighth prince.

Hmph, why are you worthy of being the best man in the world, to be the most honorable position, my background is not lower than you, I am better than you, you want me to be inferior to you, then I will let you be inferior to me one day! Li Wanyan thought silently.

When Concubine Xian heard this, she said with some regret: "You already have someone you like, that's a pity, you tell your sweetheart, if Your Majesty thinks it's appropriate, you will definitely make the decision for you." ”

"Yes, you are my younger brother, how can I not fulfill your good deeds, but you have been repeatedly pushing and blocking my kindness, and it is so bitter to hide from me."
