As long as he finds a husband's family that is strong enough for his father to consider, then Lian Ji will not have to be cautious everywhere, and Qi Zihuan can also be arrogant.

Lian Ji's strategy seems to be a bit risky, and even if they fall in love with someone, they may not be willing to be this colt, and if the father is unwilling, he can secretly control everything.

There are just too many instability.

But Lianji is a smart person, and she will never do useless work, unless she has found a way that her father cannot refuse.

Thinking about it, the only thing Qi Changrong could think of was that raw rice was cooked and cooked, and everyone knew about it.

In this way, the father, who cared most about the reputation of the royal family, had to agree.

Forcing my father to make a choice is the most stupid and effective way to do it.

And now there are only a few people who have a lot of power in the court, a bright future, and are suitable for marriage.

Jiang Bowen's only son, Jiang You, has the most suitable age.

Yang Yishu's eldest son, Yang Lanze, is one of the future cabinet ministers.

As for......

The general Jun Chen, who has an army of hundreds of thousands and is the only heir of the Jun family, has not married so far, and does not even have a concubine, so he will be the best candidate.

Dajin doesn't have the rule that horses are not allowed to enter the office.

Qi Changrong didn't want to let it go, so he let the sharpest knife in his hand become an enemy that he had to guard against in the future.

Two girls are not stupid.

Qi Changrong had already said it so thoroughly, he had almost dissected Lian Ji and Qi Zihuan, no matter how stupid they were, they understood.

Shi Chun was stunned and said: "In this way, even if the purpose of the twelve princesses is achieved, they will definitely fall out of favor in front of the emperor." ”

Shi Xia pursed his lips and pointed out the facts: "They didn't have much favor in the first place. ”

Flowers are not red for 100 days, and people are not pets for 1000 days.

When the emperor gets tired of the color of Lianji, they are nothing in the beautiful harem.

Shi Xia muttered: "But the slave still doesn't understand why the emperor doesn't marry the princesses to the ministers who have a promising future, but instead marries them to the discouraged people who do nothing......

Didn't the emperors of all dynasties use marriage as a means to reward or win over officials, so that they deeply felt the emperor's grace, so that they bowed to the imperial family and died?

Shi Xia's doubts used to be the doubts of Qi Changrong in his previous life, and he didn't know the truth until he ascended the throne.

My father is in poor health, and he is the only child in his life, how can he give birth to so many princesses.

Those princesses are actually just a trick by her father to protect her, and they have no royal blood.

Since they are not members of the royal family, how can their father tolerate them showing off their power everywhere in the name of the princess of the royal family?

Snubbing the princesses to grow up is the first step, and marrying the princesses to the poor is the second step, the third step...... I'm afraid it's going to be the queen of the princesses.

In this way, no one in Kyoto will dare to say such a thing, 'I am the child of Princess So-and-so'.

After a few decades, the farce caused by his father will be gone, and the reputation of the Yu Qi royal family will not be hindered at all.

The Nine Princesses' Mansion is located in the circle of famous nobles in Shangjing, although they are not favored, they have the dignity that princesses should have.

At this time, there were many carriages parked outside the front door of the princess's mansion, and the horse lord stood at the door, greeting the guests with a smile, leading people into the mansion, and then coming out to welcome the guests.

As for the various birthday gifts from various provinces, they are even more dazzling, and there are all kinds of strange things.

The defense of men and women in the Great Jin Dynasty is not strict, but there are too many guests in the princess's mansion today, and accidents will inevitably occur, and the ninth princess has arranged two places to entertain guests as early as a few days ago.

One is a vestibule for male guests, large enough to accommodate dozens of people.

One is the back garden, where the female guests can laugh and play without interfering with each other.

Surrounded by everyone, the ninth princess looked at the transplanted peonies and peonies in front of her in a tangled manner, and didn't know what to say for a while.

The peony was brought by Qi Ziruo, and the peony came from Qi Zihuan's hands.

I don't know where she got the news, she has to compete with Qi Ziruo everywhere, and even the etiquette is the same.

From a woman's point of view, this peony is not the best in the palace garden, but the peony is even better.

The female guests naturally saw the complicated expression of the ninth princess, Qi Zihuan's faintly smug eyes, and the shy appearance of the thirteenth princess.

For a while, laughter erupted and joked.

"The thirteenth princess has a unique vision, but the red flowers and green leaves are not pruned, but they look a little messy."

"Yes, although this peony is precious, it is not carefully carved, and it is inferior to peony."

"It's still the twelfth princess who is ingenious, and the peony is expensive, and it looks extremely comfortable."

Some people praise it, and some people disdain it.

Listening to those words that seemed to deliberately raise Qi Zihuan and step on Qi Ziru, the ninth princess frowned impatiently, and said coldly: "Okay, whether it is peony or peony, it is the intention of the two imperial sisters, where is the difference between high and low?" ”

The Ninth Princess suddenly became angry, causing the others to be stunned for a while, and then reacted and laughed busily.

Qi Ziruo kept smiling, not taking the malicious words to heart at all, and waited until the nobles finished speaking, she said casually: "Ninth sister doesn't know, this peony was personally selected by the prince's brother, she didn't say pruning, the imperial sister and I don't dare to make my own opinion, the prince's brother can choose it among dozens of clusters of flowers, compared to think it is extremely beautiful." ”

The smugness on Qi Zihuan's face stopped abruptly, and the jokes from everywhere also stopped at the same time.

The faces of the ladies are not very good-looking, especially the few people who said that the peony was worthless before, and their faces were even more blue and white, and they were very good-looking.

A smile quickly crossed the eyes of the ninth princess, and her eyes skimmed over Qi Zihuan's hand that almost twisted the handkerchief, and the smile in her eyes was even worse.

She didn't like this royal sister, so naturally she couldn't allow Qi Zihuan to show off at her birthday banquet.

"Only the peony is true to the country, and the flowers move the capital when they bloom, and the royal brother really has a good vision."

The flower of the Nine Princesses is like a button turned on, and everyone who was disgusted with the peony before was eager to describe it with all the best words in the world.

The more sincere they praised, the more ugly Qi Zihuan's face became, staring at Qi Ziruo, eager to eat her alive.

Qi Zihuan almost bit a mouthful of silver teeth.

is a thirteen, and he dares to use the name of the prince to press her!

The old lady who was still following her noticed that something was wrong, and secretly pulled Qi Zihuan's sleeve, signaling her to be calm and not to be impatient, and not to spoil the business.

The atmosphere in the backyard is becoming more and more lively, and the exquisite scenery of the house is even more impressive, and even the snacks used on weekdays are different from other places.

The maid in the house whispered in the ear of the ninth princess: "Princess, the master of the horse is here." ”

As soon as the maid's words fell, the horse strode into the backyard.

"The Nine Horses have arrived!"

The chaotic backyard was quiet, and the ladies committed themselves to a half-salute.

The ninth princess got up to greet her, with a smile in her eyes, and said coquettishly: "You don't entertain guests well in the front hall, what are you doing here with me?" ”

Yan Qing smiled freely, and secretly said in her ear: "It's not that I'm afraid that you won't be able to control the scene, and you want to save face for Her Royal Highness the Princess, how can Her Royal Highness the Princess blame me." ”

The ninth princess's face was slightly red, and she twisted his waist fiercely: "You give this palace an point, there are outsiders here, don't let them see the joke!" ”

They all claimed to be in the palace, thinking that they were about to be annoyed and angry, Yan Qing coughed, as if he had just seen the people around him, and said: "Today is the princess's birthday, please take care of the girls, Yan Qing is here to thank you." ”

After all, he turned out to be a solemn look.

Qi Ziruo moved to avoid it, and quipped: "The ninth brother-in-law is serious, and today's natural birthday star is the biggest." ”

Qi Zihuan was also busy stating: "Exactly, on a good day, no one dares to block the ninth sister." ”

Hearing this, the ninth princess glanced at Qi Zihuan quietly.

From the moment you appeared, her heart was already blocked.

Yan Qing was smiling.

The servant of the house came quickly, and suddenly said something in his ear.

Yan Qing's face changed, and the Ninth Princess, who had been watching him, was taken aback: "What's wrong?" ”

Today is her banquet, and she has taken precautions until now, and it has finally started, but don't make any mistakes.

"No problem." Seeing that she was a soldier, Yan Qing shook her head to comfort her: "There is something trivial in front of me, I will deal with it immediately." ”

The ninth princess breathed a sigh of relief and said empathetically: "You go, this is not the place you should come." ”

……

Yan Qing strode out, and scolded the people in the house with an ugly face: "Confused! Why don't you welcome Your Highness in? ”

"The slave and maid welcomed, but the one said that she had no invitation, and it was not good to come uninvited, so the slave and maid reported it first."

At this point, there is no point in saying more.

Now Yan Qing only begged that the people in the house did not snub him.

Crossing the pavilions and pavilions, walking through the lotus pond and the sea of flowers, Yan Qing finally walked to the door, and saw the most conspicuous carriage engraved with the logo of the East Palace.

He stood still in front of the carriage and bowed with unusually respectful respect.

"Chen Yanqing, I respectfully invite Your Highness to come."

The wooden door of the carriage opened, and the servants Xia and Chun jumped off the carriage respectively.

Then slowly lift the bead curtain behind the door.

Under the crisp sound of the bead curtain colliding, Qi Changrong bent down slightly and walked out, stepping on the wooden bench with the support of Shi Xia.

The man who knelt on the ground outside the princess's mansion.

If passers-by who don't know the truth saw this scene, they would probably think that the people from the Nine Princesses' Mansion had caused trouble, and now Qi Changrong is here to ask the teacher.

"Sister-in-law is exempt." Qi Changrong's voice was cold, and he reached out to help him: "Lonely came uninvited, it is indeed abrupt, and I ask my sister-in-law not to mind." ”

Where did Yan Qing dare to mind, and hurriedly took advantage of the situation: "Where is Your Highness, Your Highness has a noble status, and he came to add color to the house, and the minister is too late to be happy, so how can he mind?" ”

Qi Changrong smiled lightly, as if he was relieved: "That's good." ”

The two entered the mansion together, Qi Changrong was calm, Yan Qing's forehead was slowly oozing cold sweat, the nervous atmosphere did not dare to breathe, and he was calm on the road, stumbling to introduce the scenery of the princess's mansion.

Fortunately, Qi Changrong didn't mind his rudeness, and responded from time to time, so as not to let Yan Qing sing a one-man show, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious for a while.
