Chapter 35: The Unfathomable Heart of the King (2)

Qingcheng's words are indeed sincere, she has been treated with all the courtesy in the princess's mansion. Especially the eldest princess's concubine Hou really cares for her, and her sincere appearance sometimes makes her have a little illusion, as if Hou is really her father.

must have lost his beloved daughter and empathized with a piece of fatherly love to her.

Speaking of the eldest princess and the concubine, there is also a well-known story in this. The eldest princess Nie Zhiying, with the small character "Chanjuan", is the eldest daughter of the first king and the favorite daughter of the first king. Her concubine Twilight Hao came from a poor family, and the two fell in love at first sight at the Shangyuan Lantern Festival in Jingzhou City, so they got married.

According to the ancestral system, the horses cannot be feuded, and the political intervention is extremely limited, and most of the leaders are vain. But when Nie Yang, the king of Yan, was a good friend with the eldest princess Nie Zhiying, although he was not a sibling, his feelings were better than that of his siblings.

Later, King Yan also became the crown prince with the support of the eldest princess. After King Yan inherited the throne, he did not forget the old kindness, and because the eldest princess had been sealed, he made an exception to canonize the concubine Duhao as the definition marquis.

If you talk about Yan Guoxuanhe's house, the first one is the eldest princess's mansion.

"The eldest princess and the Definition Marquis are enough to be trusted." King Yan did not shy away from the presence of Father-in-law Bao, and said bluntly: "Besides, you are now the daughter of the eldest princess, once you become the crown princess, it will be beneficial and harmless to her." How dare she not take care of you? ”

Qingcheng glanced at Father-in-law Bao and didn't say anything more.

Father-in-law Bao is concentrating on cooking vegetables at the moment, his expression is as usual, and he is still smiling in the palace, and it seems that he has already practiced the skills of not looking at and listening to incivility.

King Yan seemed to see Qingcheng's concerns, so he took the initiative to smile and said, "What do you want to say, don't worry about him." ”

Qingcheng hesitated for a moment before asking the doubts in his heart: "About the prince and the marquis......"

Before she finished speaking, King Yan understood the meaning of her words, and asked rhetorically, "Are you worried about their brothers' walls?" ”

For a long time, King Yan has been more restrained in women, and there is a strong queen, so the heirs of the harem are extremely thin, and there are only two sons and one daughter under his knees - the prince Nie Xingyi, the marquis Nie Xingji, and the princess of Jincheng Nie Xingcai.

Among the three brothers and sisters, the prince and the princess are both born to the queen. Nie Xingji is the only one who has a concubine and has survived to adulthood in this palace. The queen's methods can be seen from this.

In this case, the queen's request to marry her as the crown princess and concubine is very meaningful. And King Yan knew that she had some past with Nie Xingji, and even agreed, which made Qingcheng even more puzzled.

Could it be that the four words "the queen's life" are more important than the harmony between his two sons?

"The folk girl doesn't understand, since you know that he will ...... the marquis"

"It is to make him resentful and unbearable." King Yan didn't wait for Qingcheng to finish speaking, he took her words and sighed deeply: "Scarlet is too bearable." The queen blatantly bullied him, the prince suppressed him intentionally or unintentionally, and gave him a fiefdom away from the royal capital, and he could endure it. ”

King Yan's expression was subtle, and he commented in a low voice: "It's a good thing to keep Taoguang in obscurity, but if you endure it too much, the gains outweigh the losses." ”

The implication of this is......

Qingcheng was suddenly frightened, and unconsciously raised his hand to cover his heart, telling King Yan this straightforward confession, and also for the shocking secret that there was nothing to hide!

King Yan actually liked Nie Xingji!

So who is he trying to help by marrying the prince? How can he, a person with the "queen's life", be embarrassed?

Qingcheng couldn't digest the mystery for a while, and couldn't help asking: "You asked me to marry the prince to provoke Jinghou?" Forcing him to make a move? ”

She was so excited that she even changed her self-proclaimed title to "me", and she didn't realize that she had lost her honor in front of her.

When King Yan heard it, he didn't think much about it, just looked at her, and replied: "The trace has been withheld and hidden, and it is too deep. Lone needs to know who his helper is in order to determine if he's a good fit for the position. ”

These words can be regarded as an answer to Qingcheng's question in disguise.
