Chapter 50
The next morning, Xiao Chenhao wrote a letter to Ma Ping, asking him to bring someone back, but did not say that he had found someone.
Ma Ping, who received the emperor's letter, thought that they had not found anyone for so long, which made the emperor lose confidence, and he felt guilty all the way. Of course, that's all for later.
What Xiao Chenhao is thinking about now is how to get along with Nalan Youruo and get along more, so that she likes herself.
The emperor's mind Nalan Youruo didn't know, she was so busy that she didn't even calm down to think about it, the emperor and the prince she saw in Jiangnan were the same person.
After Nalan Youruo had breakfast, he looked at the gift lists sent by each family with the Zhou family and the Zhao family, and then asked the steward to register it in the book, so that he could return the gift in the future, and he was busy until the afternoon.
Xiao Chenhao in the palace pondered hard and finally came up with a good way, although he couldn't leave the palace casually, but Nalan Youruo could enter the palace!
Thinking of this, Xiao Chenhao went to find his own queen mother in a hurry, if he wanted Nalan Youruo to enter the palace, of course, the help of his queen mother was indispensable.
"The son asks the queen mother to say goodbye"
When the Queen Mother saw her son come to greet her today, it was an hour earlier than usual.
"Get up!" The Queen Mother didn't think much about it, maybe the emperor had little government affairs today!
Xiao Chenhao couldn't wait to ask the Queen Mother, "Queen Mother, do you know that the teacher's daughter Nalan Youruo can have a marriage"
Xiao Chenhao has been thinking about the government and politics in recent years, but last night he had asked Chang Zuo to inquire quietly, and Nalan Youruo did not marry anyone.
He asked this on purpose, and the Queen Mother didn't know why her son suddenly asked like this, but she still told the truth "no"
Although Xiao Chenhao already knew the result, he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth when he heard the Queen Mother say this.
"You inquire about Youruo" The Queen Mother frowned, although she also felt that Youruo was the best candidate for the queen, but she was afraid that the emperor's cold appearance would make the family feel wronged, so she dispelled this idea, but why did the emperor suddenly mention Youruo today?
Xiao Chenhao knew the queen mother's thoughts, and when he saw the queen mother frowning, he instantly understood the queen mother's concerns.
Xiao Chenhao was silent for a while, and then told the Queen Mother about the cause and effect of the matter, "Mother, I saw Nalan Youruo when I went to Jiangnan last time to enjoy the peach blossoms in Zhuohua Valley, when I had a sense of déjà vu with her, I still didn't recognize her as the teacher's daughter, and you know that we haven't seen each other for nearly ten years." ”
Hearing this, the Queen Mother looked at the emperor and motioned for the emperor to continue.
Xiao Chenhao listened to it when he said this, and when he saw what his mother meant, he continued, "I fell in love with her at first sight, and since I returned to Beijing, I sent Ma Ping to Jiangnan to look for her, but Ma Ping took people to look for her in Jiangnan for three months, but he still found nothing."
Speaking of this, Xiao Chenhao's tone became very lost, "I thought I wouldn't be able to find her in this life," Xiao Chenhao smiled slightly, and seemed to be very happy, "But I didn't expect her to be right under my nose"
The Queen Mother didn't expect her son to be moved by Youruo, which was a good thing, but would the British government agree to let Nalan Youruo enter the palace?
The Queen Mother wanted to say something, but seeing the smile on the emperor's face that couldn't be hidden when he talked about Nalan Youruo, she swallowed the unspoken words alive.
It's just that his own son finally moved his heart, why should he pour cold water on him at this time, besides, his own son still understands, since this is the case, let it be!
"Chen'er, you like Youruo, your mother won't stop you, but there are a few words that your mother must tell you."
"Mother, please say" Xiao Chenhao looked at the Queen Mother and said respectfully.
"If you want to marry Youruo, you must know; If you are the pearl of your mentor British duke, the only daughter of the British government now, do you think that with the love of the British duke and his wife, can you easily marry Youruo? ”
Xiao Chenhao understands what the Queen Mother said, but Xiao Chenhao really likes Nalan Youruo, Xiao Chenhao secretly made up his mind in his heart that no matter how difficult it is, he will marry Youruo as his wife.
The queen mother saw that the emperor had made up her mind, and she also understood her son's temper, and finally had someone she liked, how could she give up easily, but maybe only such a beautiful woman could touch her son's heart!
"You like Youruo, Mother has no objection, but Mother wants to tell you, first; You have to first confirm your own mind, and second; If you want Youruo to enter the palace, there is only one possibility, that is, if Youruo doesn't want to enter the palace, I'm afraid that with Youruo's temperament and the British government's favor for Youruo, they would rather resign from their families than let Youruo enter the palace.
Third: No matter what happens between you and Youruo, you have to promise your mother that you can't persecute Youruo as the emperor."
The Queen Mother continued in a serious tone, Finally, and importantly, the Nalan clan has always pursued a lifetime and a couple. ”
Finally, it is also what the Queen Mother is most worried about, since ancient times, the emperor has been in the three palaces and six courts, and whether Youruo, who is influenced by her parents, will not be tempted by the emperor because of this, is what the Queen Mother is most worried about.
When the emperor heard this, he also understood in his heart that if the teacher promised to marry Youruo to him, his identity as the emperor would bring a lot of inconvenience to him.
Think about it, others may dream that their daughter can enter the palace, but when it comes to the teacher, it is like a plague, how far away can it be.
Xiao Chenhao understood his mother's intentions and concerns, and in order to give his mother a peace of mind, Xiao Chenhao said what was in his heart, "Mother; To tell the truth, if I hadn't met Nalan Youruo and didn't like her, maybe I would have chosen a woman who could be the queen according to the wishes of the ministers, and I would have chosen a few women with better families as concubines, and then I would go to court and deal with government affairs day after day, year after year, and live a cold life without knowing what love is.
But what I didn't expect was that I would fall in love with Nalan Youruo, and I would never forget her and fall in love with her."
"Since I am tempted, I will not make her sad, mother, I want to marry Youruo, it has nothing to do with whether she is the daughter of an English duke, I want to marry her; It has nothing to do with whether I am the emperor or not, I want to marry her, just because I have a deep love for her.
As an emperor, I can't help myself, and I understand the helplessness of being an emperor, but my heart is very small, and the small one can only fit a Nalan Youruo, and the instability of the Jiangshan Society has nothing to do with whether I accept a concubine or not.
The mother and son hope that the mother can help the son, the son does not ask for three thousand beauties in the harem, only one heart, and the white head is not separated. After Xiao Chenhao said this, he lifted the corner of his robe and knelt down.
Xiao Chenhao's words shocked the Queen Mother, and also made the Queen Mother very moved, she didn't expect that her son had already had a deep affection for Youruo.
She didn't expect her son to say such a thing, she believed that her son would do what he said, so that he didn't ask for three thousand beauties in the harem, only one heart, and the white head was not separated.
Help your stupid son yourself! "Well, Mother believes in you"
"Thank you, Queen Mother," Xiao Chenhao kowtowed.
The Queen Mother thought about it for a while, first of all, she had to let the emperor get along with Youruo more, and strive to make Youruo like her son.
The Queen Mother said to the emperor, "In this way, I recently recruited Youruo into the palace to accompany me for a few days, and after Youruo entered the palace, you can find time to get along with Youruo."
These words are in the emperor's mind, "yes" If you want to enter the palace, you will be able to see her immediately, thinking about Xiao Chenhao, she can't help but be happy.
After the mother and son discussed how to abduct Youruo into the palace, Xiao Chenhao went to the warehouse to find novelties to give to Youruo as a gift.
Nalan Youruo didn't know that the emperor had taken great pains to find a gift for himself.
Nalan recalled; Which prince came to the banquet yesterday seemed to be the one he saw in Jiangnan, but he didn't expect him to be the current emperor.
Nalan Youruo smiled, this world is really quite small.
After Nalan Youruo knew Xiao Chenhao's identity, he didn't dwell on it for a long time, because although he and the emperor played together when they were children, they didn't see each other when they grew up.
Nalan thought for a while, then looked at the book.
Now she didn't know that she and the emperor were tightly tied together.
