In the evening of the same day, when her husband came back, Mrs. Su greeted her.

She told the queen about the summons, and after she finished speaking, she asked cautiously: "Husband, you said that the queen was suddenly summoned, will it be ......?"

With the lintel of the Su family, when the news came out that the emperor was going to choose the crown princess, it was impossible to say that Mrs. Su did not have the slightest idea in her heart.

In her opinion, although her daughter's temperament is quieter, her talent and appearance are actually no worse than any noble girl in Beijing.

It's just that the Su family style is extremely strict, and although Mrs. Su has this idea in her heart, she has never shown half of it on the outside.

In the words of the Su family, this matter depends on the meaning of the royal family, if the royal family does choose their daughter as the crown princess, it is the luck of the Su family, if there is no such thing, there is no need to force it.

"Let's talk about this after you meet the queen, you must pay attention, that is, before the royal family officially expresses its position, you must not show half a sense of longing and anticipation."

After listening to Mrs. Su's words, Su Yan didn't have the joy of his wife in his heart, he wrinkled his brows slightly before he spoke.

Su Yan became a secretary at the age of less than forty, naturally he will not be a foolish person, he knows the difficulty of being a royal daughter-in-law, and the position of the crown princess seems to be glorious, but in fact there are dangers everywhere.

Don't look at the current prince's bright future, but there are so many bloody examples in front of you, and those examples all tell everyone how difficult it is for the prince to succeed in ascending to the throne.

Not to mention that the current emperor's means of ascending to the throne are not very open, he has so many sons, a lot of excellence, who can conclude that the prince's back road can always be so smooth?

For this reason, in the face of the urgency of having a girl in Kyoto and being qualified to compete for this princess, his heart is very light.

In his opinion, he protects his grown daughter like a jewel, if he does not marry into the royal family, with her skills, no matter what husband he chooses in the future, life will not be too bad.

"Husband, you don't seem to be too happy to marry the royal family? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a talent, his character is valuable, he treats his teachers and subordinates and the people, and his performance is excellent, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty are full of praise for it, you ......"

Mrs. Su looked at her husband's expression, her heart tightened, and she couldn't help but ask more.

"Marrying into the royal family, it seems to be beautiful, but in fact it is a dangerous step, who can predict what will happen later, but this matter is not something we can decide, since the queen has summoned, you will go to see her first, how it is, let's talk about it after we have seen it."

"Maybe the queen is just calling you Lala to do homework, and she doesn't have any ideas at all? If the royal family doesn't have this idea at all, what's the use of thinking about it for a long time? ”

"So, madam, please listen to your husband's words and treat it with a normal heart, that is, treat this summons as an ordinary meeting at first sight, without any expectations and goals, in this way, no matter what the royal family thinks, it will look up to you and our Su family." Su Yan said.

After Su Jian finished explaining to his wife, he went back to the back room to change into home clothes, and went to the study after resting for a while.

After entering the study, he suddenly turned his eyes and said to the maid who followed up to serve tea: "Ziyan, you go and call the eldest lady over." ”

"Yes, Lang Jun." Zi Yan answered, turned and left.

After about a cup of tea, Su Xian came to Su Yan's study with Ziyan.

She had changed into a pale green dress that matched her identity, came to Master Su, and saluted him respectfully: "Father, you call me." ”

"Ziyan, Laifu, you go out first." Su Yan asked her daughter to get up first, and the maid and attendant on the side waved her hand.

"Xian Niang, have you seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince recently?" After everyone retreated, Su Yan's eyes fell on his daughter.

The so-called knowing daughter Mo Ruo's father, with his understanding of his daughter, if it weren't for the fact that the prince suddenly saw her, had something on his mind about her, and personally found the queen, the queen should not suddenly be interested in her daughter.

Without it, his daughter is too low-key and too unsuccessful.

She didn't like the activities of Kyoto's nobles, such as cherry blossom feasts, kemari, polo matches, etc., which she never attended.

Even when she has to go out with her wife, she is usually like an invisible person, rarely speaking, because of this, she is fourteen years old this year, and there are not many people who come to the door to propose.

The Su family thinks that their daughter's early marriage is not good for her health, and they are not in a hurry to find her in-laws, and they are ready to start helping Zhang Luo find it next year.

"Half a month ago, I saw it once in the Great Ci'en Temple." Su Xian hesitated for a moment and told the story of meeting the prince that day.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince knows you?" Su Qiqi said.

"I shouldn't know, although my daughter has entered the palace with her mother several times, she has no sense of existence every time, especially when the prince is there, there are usually many people in the palace, and they are far away from each other, so it is impossible for him to notice the existence of his daughter." Su Xian said.

"That's it, no matter what the reason is, since he has noticed you, and the queen has the intention of summoning you, you must be prepared in your heart, with your talent and ability, for your father, I believe that even if you are the crown princess, you are also competent." After Su Yan listened, he was silent for a long time before answering such a sentence.

"My daughter knows that my daughter has never thought of marrying into the royal family, but if the destiny is like this, my daughter will not deliberately resist, the queen is a very amazing person, if she can be selected by them, her daughter will adapt to this identity." Su Xian nodded.

"Go ahead." Su Yan looked at such a smart and transparent daughter, and a flash of relief flashed in his eyes.

Early the next morning, Su Xian changed into a set of clothes suitable for entering the palace, and followed her mother into the palace, and when they arrived at the Lizheng Palace, Empress Changsun had just finished handling the palace affairs.

Hearing that the mother and daughter of the Su family were coming, they immediately ordered Qinglan to go out and welcome them in.

Mrs. Su's mother and daughter walked to a position about ten steps away from the queen and stood still, bowed down and saluted her: "I have seen the queen's mother, Niangniang Sheng'an." ”

As soon as Su Xian came in, the eyes of the eldest grandson queen fell on her, Su Xian was wearing a pale pink dress today, holding the double bun that the noblewomen of Kyoto often pulled.

Her appearance is beautiful and elegant, and her clothes are not particularly eye-catching, and she is not conspicuous at first glance, but when you look closely, you find that this girl looks better and better, and she has an indescribable gentle and quiet atmosphere.

"No need to be polite, sit down." Empress Eldest Sun waved her hand, and the mother and daughter of the Su family thanked her, and sat down on the mat brought by the palace maid.

"What a beautiful little lady." Empress Eldest Sun looked at Su Xian carefully, only to feel that the more she looked at this little lady, the more comfortable she became, and she couldn't help blurting out a praise.

"Niangniang has won the award, this child is good at everything, but his temperament is too quiet." Mrs. Su's heart jumped, but her face was not obvious, and she answered quite humbly.

As for Su Xian, she just smiled a little shyly, didn't say a word, and was as quiet and silent as ever.
