Chapter 641: Painstaking Efforts

When the eldest princess heard the report of Duke Gui that Chu Xia would not go to the palace for a banquet at night, she was so angry that she immediately called someone to call this unfilial son back, but she didn't expect to find anyone at all, and he ran away early.

At the banquet in the palace in the evening, the eldest princess saw Zhuang Xuewen, she pondered for a moment, and then asked the eunuchs around her to invite him over.

Zhuang Xuewen is usually low-key and polite to everyone, the eldest princess is the emperor's sister, so he naturally won't put on any shelf, so he got up and walked over elegantly.

"I've seen the eldest princess." He arched his hand.

The eldest princess didn't have to return the courtesy, but considering Zhuang Xuewen's current power, she still sat there and bowed slightly and said, "Lord Zhuang doesn't need to be polite, please take a seat." ”

Zhuang Xuewen sat down, his posture was straight and not stiff, and his temperament was not lost to the eldest princess at all, he asked with a smile: "I don't know if the eldest princess called her ministers over, what are your orders?" ”

"Lord Zhuang is young and promising, I heard that the brothers and sisters in the family are not married, this powerful family in the capital, everyone can ask for it but cannot enter the door. Many people have asked for the palace here, and they want the palace to be a matchmaker for the two, but I don't know what Lord Zhuang wants? "Although it was a little abrupt, the eldest princess really couldn't bear it.

Although the eldest princess is more than ten years older than the emperor, she is not an elder, and she is only the same as Zhuang Xuewen.

Although she is in a high position, she directly wants to marry the minister, and if the official position is low, she can still touch her light, but in the face of the powerful ministers under one person and above ten thousand people, she is a little too long.

Zhuang Xuewen smiled slightly: "The eldest princess, although the king of Yinde County has this heart, but the housekeeper has not returned from abroad, and the matter of marriage is still slowed down." At the beginning, I promised her that the marriage would be decided by herself, so the minister could not receive the love of the eldest princess. ”

"This marriage has always been decided by the parents, if there are no elders in the family, it should be the elder brother to decide, how can the woman choose who to marry. There are a few good men here in this palace, and Lord Zhuang can also choose and take a look, all of them are innocent and promising children. The eldest princess took a copy of the card from her cuff and put it on the table and pushed it to him.

"That kid in my family must also know that Master Zhuang also knows that he is extremely naughty, and he doesn't learn and has no skills, and he can't become a big man if he gets rid of it. There is a leather bag empty, but it is an embroidered pillow and a bag of grass, I am afraid that it will miss Ling Mei's life. In order to keep the dealer from staring at her own family, she degraded her son to uselessness for the first time.

Zhuang Xuewen didn't take the card, but said with a smile: "The marriage of the woman of the Zhuang family is not bothered by the eldest princess, but what is the relationship between the king of Yinde and Zhuang Rou?" Chen Ke has never heard of a single word, I think the eldest princess heard some rumors from people with broken mouths. ”

This is something that everyone in the capital knows, how could Zhuang Xuewen not know, the two don't say that they agree, and the relationship is not ordinary.

It's just that seeing that he didn't admit it, the eldest princess didn't want to point out this unfounded thing in front of everyone.

She had to say with a little embarrassment: "It seems that the palace has misunderstood, Lord Zhuang is now in full swing and has a prominent net worth, and he will not let Ling Mei be a concubine." When the sister gets married, the palace will give a generous gift. ”

Zhuang Xuewen got up suddenly, stood up and looked at the eldest princess kneeling on the cushion temporarily, showing a meaningful smile, "Eldest princess, the minister doesn't want to hear that anyone in the house cares about the marriage of the sister, it is the matter of the minister's family." ”

"I can't even manage my own son, and I still meddle in other people's marriages, the eldest princess seems to be able to blame herself for herself and reflect on it."

Only the eldest princess heard his words, and the others only saw him salute the princess politely, and returned to his seat very politely. 's chic and free appearance attracted many ministers to strengthen their minds to marry their daughters and granddaughters to him.

The eldest princess's face was very ugly, Zhuang Xuewen dared to threaten her, if the princess entered the door in the future, and Zhuang Rou was in the back house, then the Yinde County Mansion would be over!

She got up with a glass of wine, walked to the emperor's seat who was watching the song and dance, and said with a slight smile: "Your Majesty, this New Year's is coming, it reminds the palace of the time when it was in the cold palace, it was really like smoke and fog as if it was not real." ”

"The palace has today's glory, all because of the emperor's love, on this festival, the palace to the emperor a cup, I wish the world eternal peace."

Zhou Kun was a little surprised, he didn't understand why this low-key imperial sister suddenly came out, and deliberately mentioned the days when the two of them depended on each other when they were in the cold palace.

Thinking that Zhuang Xuewen had just been called over by her, and after saying a few words, he made such a scene, did the two have a dispute?

He said to the eldest princess with a pleasant face, "Sister Huang, this peaceful and prosperous era is also the credit of all Aiqing, I want to respect all Aiqing, and work hard for the country day and night." With that, he stood up, and the queen next to him also got up and raised her glass.

Seeing that the emperor was so loving, all the ministers quickly got up and shouted in unison: "Thank you, long live, long live, long live." ”

With a smile on his face, Zhou Kun drank the wine, and the courtiers also drank their glasses.

However, the eldest princess did not return to her seat after drinking, but saluted and said, "Your Majesty, this palace wants to please you today." Princess Rongbao is coming to our country in a few days, and the emperor of the boy in this palace also knows that he is too naughty, so he is afraid that after marrying Princess Rongbao, he will snub the princess. ”

"Please also ask the emperor to give a few virtuous and virtuous concubines, so that he can take care of his heart and learn some ways of respecting each other, so that he will not neglect the princess."

As soon as these words came out, the originally lively banquet suddenly became cold.

The ministers who had already taken their seats looked at each other, not knowing which play the eldest princess was singing today, and she wanted to ask the emperor to give her a marriage.

Although many of them have this idea, they just want to go through the relationship below, to see if they can let the king of Yinde County take a fancy to him and carry him into the county king's mansion.

As for going to the emperor to ask for marriage, they won't be so uninteresting.

That kid's temper is full of people in the capital, who doesn't know, Jingzhong is unwilling to play with him, and it's not that no one wants to shoehorn a woman into him before.

Three years ago, the favored third lady of the Pingyang Hou family was fascinated by the ghost and was fascinated by the king of Yindejun, forcing Pingyang Hou to come forward and want to say goodbye.

At that time, the king of Yinde County was decided by the Queen Mother that she would marry the princess in the future, and no one could be the princess of the county. The third lady of the Pingyang Hou Mansion was even willing to have a side concubine and a concubine, and even the eldest princess nodded, but she ran into a wall in Chu Xiana.

Pingyang Hou was entangled by his daughter, and secretly asked the prince to ask Chu Xia to drink, and after getting drunk, he wanted to send the third lady out.

Anyway, I want to be a concubine or a side concubine, and I can't lose this name, so I just want to enter the county king's mansion.

This is a sure thing, no one expected that in the middle of the night, the Hou Shizi of Pingyang took people to break into the door, and there was only Chu Xia, the king of Yinde County, inside.

Not only did he fail to catch the handle, but he was also blown out of the lantern, and his legs were broken by Chu Xia's guards as a thief. And the third lady of the Pingyang Hou Mansion was found hanging from a tree in her garden.

And he looked innocent the whole time, and he had never seen the appearance of the third lady at all.

Pingyang Hou secretly tossed for a long time, not only failed to find any evidence, but also had a lot of disasters in the family, threatening the life of the prince, so he had to give up looking for evidence, and the whole family stopped.

Such a guy, who dares to ask for marriage and send a daughter who does not like him in, maybe the next day the red affair will have to be done in vain, and the whole family will get into trouble.

However, at this time, everyone was not thinking about whether their daughter would be given marriage, but all looked at Zhuang Xuewen, and the love between his sister and the king of Yindejun had already spread all over Kyoto.

Does the eldest princess want to take advantage of the fact that the dealer is in full swing to get Zhuang Xuewen's sister early?

Zhuang Xuewen sat there calmly, ignoring everyone's eyes, just looked at the emperor and said: "Your Majesty, Shuchen is thick-skinned, although I don't know which family's daughter the eldest princess has fallen into, but the sister is unwilling to be married. The minister was reluctant to let her sister suffer, so she promised her that the marriage would be decided by herself. ”

"She is not here today, and the choice of marriage should be withdrawn."

The eldest princess should also agree: "It's okay to do this, just ask the emperor to choose a few virtuous daughters, so that Chu Xia can take care of it." Lord Zhuang's sister is famous for thousands of miles, and she is a heroine among women, and it is common for the county king's mansion to be unable to climb. ”

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar at the banquet.
