Prime Minister's Office.

Duan Hongzhang stroked his beard and stared out the window in a daze, and Duan Feiyou behind him looked aggrieved. Her brother Duan Jinshu looked left and right, and stepped forward with some embarrassment and said, "Sister, isn't it the crown prince, why is it difficult if you want to be the crown princess?" Our Duan family has been loyal and good for generations, assisting the saint for more than 30 years, his father is also the prime minister of one dynasty, his brother is also serving in the court now, and his sister is qualified enough to match the prince. ”

He turned around and looked at Duan Hongzhang again, "Father, if the crown prince is really smart, he should naturally ask for your support." ”

"That being said, I don't think the prince means anything to me at all." Duan Feiyou lowered his eyes, "Last time in the Empress Dowager's Palace, there was Concubine Li present, he embarrassed me, and he was very interested in that Shangguan Yingluo." In my opinion, he likes the daughter of the Shangguan family. ”

Duan Feiyou could see that they were extraordinary when they were meeting at Lingshan Yazheng, but he didn't know why the atmosphere between the two was a little strange when they met this time. Duan Fei has a crush on Murong Ze, she has been waiting for the day when she will be the crown princess for so many years!

Duan Feiyou stood up and walked behind Duan Hongzhang, "Father, my daughter's only wish in this life is to accompany the prince, please help your daughter fulfill this wish!" ”

"You get up for me!" Duan Hongzhang shouted helplessly, "You are my Duan Hongzhang's daughter, look at what you look like now?" You have been arrogant and noble since you were a child, and now you are kneeling down and begging me in order to marry a man, do you still have a little bit of the reserve of your daughter's family?! ”

Duan Hongzhang snorted coldly, to be honest, of course he was willing to watch his daughter marry the prince, but the prince was unwilling, and more importantly, now Murong Ze may not even be able to sit firmly in the position of the prince, if Duan Feiyou really married the prince, then he Duan Hongzhang would be equivalent to getting on the prince's ship.

If Murong Ze ascends to the throne, then the glory of their Duan family can last for a few years, what if he fails? The Duan family must also be implicated.

Duan Jinshu pulled Duan Feiyou to stand up, "Father, my sister is also infatuated, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is peerless, calm and introverted, and indeed only he can be worthy of our Feiyou." Why don't my son come forward and talk to His Royal Highness the Prince? ”

"Are you two crazy?" Duan Hongzhang's eyes widened and he was furious, "What kind of thing are you, you actually talk about marriage with the prince, if you don't talk properly, you still have to force the marriage to fail?" I can't afford to lose this person! ”

"Sir! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived! The servants outside hurriedly came to report.

What the?

Duan Jinshu suddenly smiled brightly, Duan Feiyu beside him looked cloudy, what is the prince doing here?

"Look, Cao Cao Cao is here, isn't His Royal Highness the Crown Prince here?" Duan Jinshu smiled and received a roll of Duan Hongzhang's eyes.

Duan Hongzhang shouted, "Don't hurry up and take over!" He walked out.

Duan Jinshu patted Duan Feiyou's shoulder, "Good sister, what are you still doing in a daze?" Don't go back to the boudoir and dress up, go to see His Royal Highness the Prince. ”

"But, but why His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came to visit, we don't know ......" Duan Feiyou really ran out of ideas, Murong Ze's mind was too deep, she really couldn't guess.

Duan Jinshu smiled slightly, "Everyone else is here in person, what else do you say?" Go for it! ”

Murong Ze walked into the main hall and sat down, and looked around, "Prime Minister Duan is indeed an honest and honest official, and when he walked in the hall, he felt that the layout was simple and elegant, and it was the most suitable for the prime minister." ”

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince praises falsely, the humble house is simple, and I hope His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will not dislike it." Duan Hongzhang is very polite, and he is more respectful than other petty officials. He knows very well that accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger, and he has always been cautious. "I just don't know why His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is visiting today? But is it because there are important things to discuss in the DPRK? ”

There was a slight smile on the corner of Murong Ze's mouth, "Prime Minister Duan doesn't have to be polite, there is indeed something wrong with the main hall coming to visit today, but it is not a court affair, but a private matter." ”

Personal? Isn't it Duan Fei's concubine?

Duan Hongzhang hurriedly knelt on the ground, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince forgives his sins, if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't come today, the old minister will also visit the Crown Prince another day." ”

Although Murong Ze was surprised, he smiled flatly, "Oh? What is the phase? ”

The little girl Duan Fei didn't know the depths, and she actually took Concubine Li's joke seriously, disturbing the peace of His Royal Highness the Prince. Although Fei You is knowledgeable, she lacks measurement and strategy, and is not worthy of being a good match for the prince. Duan Hongzhang sighed, "Although the old minister is disappointed, he also knows his duty. I hope that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will forgive his sins! ”

Murong Ze smiled even deeper, he was silent for a moment and didn't speak, it seemed that Duan Hongzhang understood better than his daughter. He skimmed the foam in the teacup, "Duan Xiang is serious, this matter is not Miss Duan's fault, in fact, it is also a great honor to be able to get Miss Duan's favor." Just ......"

He glanced at Duan Hongzhang, who was kneeling on the ground motionless, very satisfied, and then said, "It's just that the palace promised to take the position of the crown prince and concubine in the first place. Therefore, I am afraid that this hall will make Miss Duan wronged, I don't know what Duan Xiang means in his heart? ”

Could it be that this means ...... The position of the main concubine is not good, but the side concubine can?

Duan Fei by the boudoir.

"What? Side concubine? Duan Feiyou sat on the chair stunned, his face disappointed and tangled, "Where is my Duan Feiyou not worthy of the position of the crown prince and concubine?" Why settle for the side room? ”

Duan Hongzhang's heart was also thinking about why, not why Duan Feiyou could only be a side concubine, but why the position of the crown prince and concubine should be mysterious. Murong Ze took out the first queen to gag his mouth, and he couldn't ask what he said.

Duan Jinshu snorted coldly, "If Feiyou is not worthy, who else in Beijing can compare to Feiyou?" Father, what the hell do you think? What does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince mean by this? ”

"What else could it mean?" Duan Hongzhang chuckled, "I don't want to offend the Duan family, but I don't want to offend others." Feiyou, my father has already told the prince about this matter, and I still need to ask you what you mean, if you don't agree, the matter will be stopped, and the prince will not have any trouble. ”

Duan Feiyou gritted his teeth, and he just couldn't swallow this breath in his heart. But if she doesn't marry, she won't even have the position of side concubine, and maybe she will lose the opportunity to be by Murong Ze's side forever. "Father, I'll marry!"

"Sister!" Duan Jinshu shouted helplessly, "There are a lot of good children, why do you have to make a side room for him?" Don't look at him as the crown prince, we are not rare! ”

"Brocade Book!" Duan Hongzhang glanced at him, "After all, the prince is the prince, the prince of a country, even if he will still be the queen in the future, your sister is also the honor of the noble concubine, and she is even more beautiful than other women." Duan Hongzhang came to Duan Feiyou, "But you can think clearly, the position of the side concubine is only temporary, if you are just a side room for the rest of your life, then you will always be a loser!" ”
