Chapter 106: The Other Side of the Eldest Princess of Jofu
Chu Yao was calm on the face, but in fact, he was nervous in his heart to accompany the eldest princess into the palace, different from her son's uneasiness, the eldest princess of Roufu was confident both in face and in heart, and the royal brother treated her like a father since she was a child.
Fortunately, she has never been a pampered and proud person, except for that incident, she has never made unreasonable demands, and it must not be difficult to ask for a favor for her son this time.
After entering the palace, the mother and son separated, and his mother went to ask his uncle for marriage, and he was inconvenient to be there, so he happened to go to find Li.
Li fiddled with a glass lantern in front of the table, which was the lantern he won for Li at the Lantern Festival that year, and it was also the first time he met Baozhi.
He always remembered that she secretly laughed at the fourth child at that time, the cunning little mouse who only stole the oil, and then he saved her, she only thought that he was also a bad person, and was always ready to sneak away, and then later knew that he was the prince, and was careful to restrain his hands and feet, and never showed his lively appearance in front of him.
Until one time he inadvertently saw her arguing with Yang Xi, his heart stirred, that was the real her, clever and eloquent, clever and lively, he also thought about keeping her by his side, but he didn't want her to be sad, the restrained life in the palace was not suitable for her, so he decided to let go and decided to fulfill her.
According to Yangxi's status in his father's heart, it must be easy to ask for a favor. Marrying Yangxi, Baozhi can at least do whatever he wants
Hearing that the emperor was in Kunning Palace, the eldest princess of Roufu went directly to Kunning Palace.
The chief eunuch had already gotten the letter, and sent a little chamberlain to greet him outside, and the little chamberlain guarding the door saw that the eldest princess of Roufu was welcomed into the courtyard gate, and pulled a sharp voice and raised his voice: "The eldest princess of Roufu has arrived."
Mr. Li entered the house to tell that the emperor was playing chess with Queen Wei, and when he heard that Roufu was coming, the two were stunned for a moment, they had already applied for time, why did they suddenly enter the palace? Hurry up and ask Manager Li to invite people in.
Mama Hua took a few steps forward to welcome Roufu in.
After the eldest princess saluted the two of them, Queen Wei got up and helped her up herself, and said with a smile: "What kind of wind is blowing you today?" ”
"A few baskets of grapes are sent from the Zhuangzi today, I eat them well, and I am afraid that they will not be fresh tomorrow, so I will send them over quickly." The eldest princess of Roufu said with a smile.
The emperor frowned and looked up and down at Roufu, but didn't notice anything unusual: "But what happened to Chu Yankai again!?" Doesn't it make you happy?! ”
Empress Wei glanced at the emperor, she was really concerned and confused, and asked so bluntly, I am afraid that Roufu will not be happy.
The emperor was looked at like this, and swallowed back the second half of the sentence to punish the public crime of Qi Guo.
Roufu held back the sourness in her heart, and said with a smile: "What's the matter." But there is something I do want to discuss with the imperial sister-in-law today. ”
Empress Wei was surprised, there was something to discuss with her, if Roufu didn't have something to embarrass her, she would never open her mouth to them on weekdays.
"This is fresh, talk to this palace quickly."
"I look at a daughter-in-law for Brother Yao, and I want to ask the imperial sister-in-law for a favor." Roufu falls generously.
At this time, the palace maid had already put the washed grapes on the table, and the emperor smelled that it was not the Duke of Qi who bullied Roufu, so he settled down and picked up a grape to eat.
Empress Wei cheered up and showed a very interested expression: "Which girl can win your favor?"
Roufu looked completely unaware, and slowly said Baozhi's name: "You also know this child, it is Miss Cousin from Zhao Ge's hometown, didn't she live in Kunning Palace a few times before." I see that this kid is good, and his demeanor is polite, and Brother Yao'er's magic star should ask such a daughter-in-law to take care of it. ”
At this time, the emperor and his wife were dumbfounded, how could they all look at Zhang Baozhi.
The emperor held a grape in his hand and put it in his mouth not to put it back on the plate, Concubine Xian only told him yesterday that she had taken a fancy to Zhang Baozhi and wanted to say that she would make a continuation for her nephew, but he agreed and allowed her to give an order.
This Zi Roufu came to ask for grace again, and dared to love the ladies in Beijing who were not as good as this Zhang Baozhi, and everyone wanted to ask her home to be a daughter-in-law.
It's hard to do now, this is a sister-in-law, and she never asks him, not to mention that Yang Xi grew up watching by herself, and it hurts more than several sons, and it's hard to refute anything, but in the end, you don't have any jokes, how can you just respond to the things on the front foot, and regret it on the back foot.
Persuaded: "There are so many ladies in Beijing, you can pick Yang Xi again, the Zhang family's family background is a little worse, where is worthy of Yang Xi." ”
Roufu expected that the imperial brother would not agree all at once, so he immediately smiled and lowered his eyelids: "The courtier sister just wants to ask for a favor for Brother Yao, and the imperial brother pushes back like this, it seems that I have put it up, and the courtier sister will retire!" ”
Empress Wei hurriedly stopped, she knew that the emperor had always been obedient to Roufu, if Roufu left like this, the emperor would inevitably blame himself and be sad, and she also felt that Baozhi was too wronged to marry Xie Kun to fill the house, although Chu Yao was also stubborn, in the end his nature was not bad. Since Baozhi can't be his daughter-in-law, it's not bad to be a daughter-in-law of Roufu.
"The emperor doesn't mean what you think, it's all for the good of the child, how can he push back." Empress Wei said softly and gently pushed the emperor.
The emperor was still a little embarrassed, but when he looked at Roufu's resentful eyes, the balance in his heart was naturally biased towards his own sister and nephew, and in the end, it was Chu Yaobi who was the relatives of the Xie family.
Calm his voice, he nodded and said, "Then I will ask your imperial sister-in-law to give a verbal edict to marry Yang Xi and the girl of the Zhang family." ”
Empress Wei waved her hand at Roufu and quietly pointed at the emperor, Roufu also had this intention, and said with a smile: "I think it is still the emperor's brother who is planning a decree to show more formality for Brother Yao's marriage." ”
The emperor was suffocated, and the queen passed on the message, and he could still say that he didn't know.
Take a breath, that's it, Roufu is happy: "Okay, good, I will make a decree tomorrow to marry Yangxi." ”
But the eldest princess of Roufu still didn't spare: "No! Who knows if the imperial brother will leave this matter behind when he is busy with government affairs tomorrow, and the imperial brother will make an order immediately! Tell Manager Li to drop the key and go to announce the holy decree, so that the courtiers can rest easy. ”
"Nonsense! You don't have any jokes, do you understand, when have I never done what I promised you. The emperor reprimanded.
Roufu was heartbroken, and wanted to do this for his son, so he gritted his teeth: "It's okay, then I'll wait here for when the imperial brother will make his decree and when he will go back." ”
The emperor was helpless, and pointed at the eldest princess of Roufu at Queen Wei: "Look at her, how old she is, she is still playing a scoundrel in front of me, I am afraid of you." "Tell Mr. Li to grind the ink and prepare the purpose.
Empress Wei pulled Roufu and said with a smile: "Roufu is only in front of the emperor to have this little daughter, this is also the blessing of Roufu, to have a brother like you to protect the emperor." He patted Roufu's hand again and said, "It's time to ask for a daughter-in-law for your son, you can't grow up like this, so don't you thank your imperial brother quickly." ”
The eldest princess of Roufu watched the emperor wave his pen on the scroll, thanked him with satisfaction, and did not forget to explain: "Use some good words and some treasures!" ”
