Chapter 81: The Emperor Gives Marriage
Royal Palace, Kunning Palace
According to the practice of his ancestors, the emperor will definitely come to Kunning Palace on the first and fifteenth days of the new year, except for other days.
To say, the queen is really well-maintained, she is not young, and her face and figure still look like a girl in her teens and twenties. It is no wonder that the emperor does not exclude Zu Xun's injury from coming to Kunning Palace for two days every month, except for these two days, the emperor occasionally comes to the queen's Kunning Palace.
The two of them have just experienced the joy of fish and water, and between the queen's eyebrows and eyes, there is a moisturized charm. A little lazily asked, "Your Majesty, are you hungry?" The concubine's small kitchen also has a supper, do you want to use it? ”
After so many years of husband and wife, the queen always likes to eat after knowing that the emperor has not returned, otherwise she will not be able to sleep well at night.
"It's still your intimacy, use some!" With that, the emperor got up and put on his single clothes.
The queen got up lazily and slowly, and then called, "Lotus fragrance! ”
Soon, the supper prepared in the morning was already on the small table. After all the palace maids and eunuchs went down, the emperor sat down on the chair. I thought that the queen would be on the table soon, picked up the chopsticks, and prepared to pick up the dishes, but the queen didn't come for a long time.
"What's wrong? Why don't you sit down and use it with me? The emperor asked with a slight frown.
This is also because the queen has just served him comfortable, otherwise where would he ask this sentence more.
"Your Majesty, what's the hurry, this is not according to the rules, how can the concubines dine at the same table with the emperor!" The queen said, and sat down without pretentiousness.
"I don't know you yet, and there are no outsiders here, and you're still playing with children's tempers in front of me."
After the emperor said that, he rarely took a piece of meat and put it in the queen's bowl like an ordinary man.
"Emperor Xie!" The queen didn't dislike it as a piece of fat, and calmly put it in her mouth.
"That's right, Queen! I seem to remember that you mentioned to me that the third child is now quite the oldest, but there is no matter of marrying a concubine yet? ”
Just now, the emperor was full of such things, and he really didn't take this matter to heart. It was also now that I suddenly remembered that the queen seemed to have mentioned this matter just now, and almost forgot about it.
The queen was secretly happy in her heart, nodded indifferently, and said: "If you go back to the emperor, the concubine Shicai has said it." To say that the three princes are now the eldest and not small, the two elder brothers above have already married concubines, and the younger brothers at the bottom, even if there are no concubines, there are one or two side concubines and concubines. Only this third child is really the least worry-free for the concubines. ”
After that, the queen shook her head helplessly, although she said something like disgust, but in her eyes was love for her child.
The emperor also knew that the queen was really tired of his third son, but he was the most concerned, how could he really be bored. However, these three sons are indeed the eldest and should choose a concubine. As the old saying goes, start a family first and then start a business. After getting married, it is not bad to have someone in the family who knows how cold and hot.
Seeing that the emperor didn't speak for a while, the queen was a little uneasy, and asked softly: "This matter, what the concubine and a woman say are said by the third child, I don't know what the emperor thinks?" ”
When the emperor thought of this, he also had a headache. After all, choosing a concubine is not a trivial matter, although the third son is not the oldest, but it is not the time to marry a wife. It's just that since the queen has spoken, the emperor will not turn a blind eye no matter what happens.
"Choose a concubine for him now? Also, maybe after becoming a family, his temperament can be settled a little. However, this matter still depends on what the third child thinks. ”
As soon as the queen heard it, she knew that there was a play, and the iron needed to be struck while it was hot, so she hurriedly said: "Look at what the emperor said, if you let the third prince choose a concubine, how can he not obey." The concubines have been inquiring about this for a long time! ”
"Oh? Do you have a daughter-in-law you like? The emperor asked jokingly.
When the queen heard this, she hurriedly called her personal palace maid Lianxiang to get a booklet.
"In fact, the matter of choosing a concubine for the third child, the concubine is not a whim. When the child grows up, he is always looking forward to marrying a wife and having children as soon as possible, so that the emperor can enjoy the joy of family as soon as possible, right? Therefore, the concubine has been planning for a long time, and now there are several candidates, but they have not yet been finalized. Otherwise, Your Majesty, do you have a reference with your concubines? Give some advice? ”
As she spoke, the queen put the album brought by Lianxiang in front of the emperor.
When the emperor heard that there were ready-made candidates, he suddenly became interested and said: "Let me take a good look, my son is a dragon and a phoenix among people, and he must choose a woman who is good enough to be worthy." ”
The emperor directly opened the booklet in front of him and began to slowly and carefully flip through it.
The queen moved her chair slightly, leaning closer to the emperor, and then next to the emperor, she introduced softly at the right time.
"This is the second lady of Prince Yong, the daughter inherits her father's business, although her appearance is not top-notch, but marrying the third child, you can't just look at her appearance. The most important thing is to look at the inside, these two young ladies are also the same as the third in temperament, they are straightforward, and the two should be good in getting along. ”
The emperor nodded, and said with satisfaction with this second miss: "This second miss of Prince Yong, I have also heard of it a little. It's just that I heard that she has been practicing martial arts since she was a child, and she is a little lacking in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, not to mention some female celebrities that women should learn. Moreover, if the two quarrel, the third child's martial arts may not be as good as this little girl, but it is impossible to say who suffers. ”
His words were full of ridicule, and then he looked at the queen. He has always known that the third child is the queen's treasure, and the queen doesn't care like this? The queen laughed when she heard this.
"Your Majesty, you don't understand. No matter how good these two young ladies are, they are also women, so they naturally take their husbands as their heavens. ”
The emperor shook his head with a smile and said nothing more. He lowered his head and looked at the booklet.
"This is the little lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion, just over sixteen years ago, and she is still a budding flower bone. At the last garden party, the prime minister's wife took her into the palace, and the concubine took a few looks, but she also thought it was good. ”
The emperor frowned slightly, just over sixteen, and he was just over sixteen. He shook his head and said, "Don't say if it's too small, after all, it's a good time." It's just that the third child is not a person who can take care of people, if this character marries back. This delicate little girl may not know how much anger she will suffer. The prime minister is a protector of his daughter, and when the time comes, it will not be a marriage, but a feud. Besides, this little lady is still in good time, and it is difficult to say whether the prime minister's family wants to stay for two more years. ”
The queen was a little unimpressed, knowing that she could marry the royal family, many people couldn't think of it. No matter how great the prime minister is, but he is also a courtier, do you really dare to say more?
Besides, the third prince is a prince, and it is natural that he will not take care of people. When this wife marries back, where is there any reason to take care of her. Naturally, it is necessary to take care of the father-in-law and the rear, so that the father-in-law of his family has no worries when he goes out.
But the emperor has already said this, and the queen doesn't have much to say.
The queen thought for a moment, stretched out her slender jade hand and flipped through the pages of the album one after another, then stopped and pointed to the person in the album.
"What does the emperor think, how about the eldest daughter of Taifu? The concubine thinks that among these people, the eldest daughter of the Taifu family is an extremely suitable candidate. ”
The emperor paused slightly, and the Taifu family ......
He looked at the queen a little quietly, and then said, "Taifu's eldest daughter Zhao Yuning? I have heard the name of this woman. Not to mention the gorgeous appearance, the talent is even more first-class. It's no wonder that the queen has taken a fancy to you, it's just ......"
"Your Majesty, just what?" The queen asked a little nervously.
"It's just that this Taifu doesn't have real power, and it seems that he can't help the third child in the future!"
The queen's heart really missed a beat, and she has been avoiding talking about it, just because she is afraid that the emperor will be dissatisfied. Unexpectedly, before she could say it, the emperor had already proposed it first. She knew that if the answer to this question was not good and did not suit the emperor's wishes.
The emperor is disgusted with her, and maybe he will implicate the son of the previous dynasty, which is not something the queen is happy to see.
"What did the emperor say, and whether the Taifu had real power or not had something to do with the third child. It is already his honor for the third child to be able to share the emperor's worries, if he is in trouble, he will naturally have to talk to his emperor Amat, how can there be a reason to turn around and mention it to the Yue family. Could it be that there is something in the world that the emperor can't solve? ”
"Hahaha...... The queen has a point. It's a mistake in my thinking! This Taifu's daughter is still good, and it seems to be just right to match the third child. ”
The queen asked tentatively, "What does the emperor think ......?" Why don't you give two people a marriage? ”
The emperor also felt a little tired after seeing so many of them. He put the booklet on the table, patted his palm gently, and thought slowly.
The queen still knows the emperor a little, looking at the emperor's appearance, she secretly said that there is a play. You know, she has prepared so much, and the main purpose is just the eldest daughter of this Taifu family.
Since the emperor has no plans to look at the next few, she naturally won't say anything.
"I still need to think about this matter, this album will be given to me first, and when I decide, I will naturally not be disadvantaged to the third child." The emperor stamped the booklet, took the queen's hand, and patted it gently: "I have my own decision on this matter, so don't worry." ”
"With the emperor here, there can be concubines to worry about or something. It's not too early, so the emperor might as well rest early. Emperor Ming'er has to get up early and go to court early! The queen indifferently changed the subject.
The emperor had already planned to ask Ming'er for the opinions of the Taifu and the third son before making a decision, and he was still very satisfied when he saw that the queen was not aggressive.
