Chapter VI
Xiao Yanfeng took Ye Qian by the hand and walked all the way to Emperor Wen, "Father, Miss Ye Si has already promised her sons and asked her father to marry us." ”
Ye Qian blinked, didn't speak, and secretly said in her heart that His Royal Highness was really powerful, she didn't even say her name and ranking, he knew it.
"Well, the decree will be issued later." Emperor Wen smiled and nodded, "The fourth child is married, and he can be regarded as an adult." ”
The queen smiled very kindly, "The fourth child has already opened the palace, but the fief has not yet been opened." "She and Emperor Wen have been husband and wife for many years, it can be said that they know each other very well, just now Emperor Wen asked about the origin of Miss Ye Si, and has been silent, it is estimated that he is still a little jealous, at this time, when it comes to the fief of the fourth child, Emperor Wen will definitely not give him a good place.
"Fiefdom?" Emperor Wen thought for a moment, "Since Miss Ye Si was chosen as the princess, then this fief should be chosen in Pengye." ”
"This place is good, it just fits the surname of Miss Ye Si." The queen echoed, Canopy is a rather desolate place, there is no output, it seems that the emperor is really a little dissatisfied with the origin of this Ye Fourth Girl, after all, his doting on the fourth child is only superficial. However, the fourth child is an arrogant and domineering prince, who doesn't learn and has no skills, so he must not know where the tent leaves are.
Xiao Yanfeng was surprised and delighted.
Surprisingly, in his previous life, his fief was not a tent leaf, but a better place, this time his father changed to a tent leaf, does it mean that he is a little dissatisfied with himself? Xiao Yanfeng immediately understood the difference, in his previous life, when he and Ye Qian were married, her brother had died, her mother was too sad and died, she was left with an orphan daughter in the big house, and the title of the Hou Mansion also fell to the second room, and he married a lonely princess who had no help. And now, her brother is still alive and well, and he is the son of the Hou Mansion, with the help of Ji Pinghou's connections, over time, he can still develop and grow.
Compared with the family background of the side concubine chosen by King Kang today, what is this? It's just that this little inconspicuous help has aroused the vigilance and dissatisfaction of his father.
King Yu lowered his eyes and covered the ridicule in his eyes. Unfortunately, my father did not know that although this canopy was a deserted place and the territory was mountainous, this mountain was not all a stone mountain with no output, and there were several mines in it, in addition to iron ore, there was also a gold mine, which was not known to the world, and was discovered by chance many years after he ascended the throne in his previous life.
All in all, this canopy can be said to be the richest place in Daqi. If his father knew that there were iron and gold mines in the fief he gave him, he would probably be so angry that he would die, of course, he would not let his father know.
"Your Highness, I love this place, the name is so nice." Ye Qian quietly tugged at Xiao Yanfeng's sleeve and said softly.
Xiao Yanfeng came back to his senses, this was not the time for him to think too much, he smiled, "Since you like it, when you have the opportunity, I'll take you to have a look." Then, he thanked Emperor Wen and said: "Thank you father, the princess of the sons is surnamed Ye, this fief is called Canopy Ye, and it is very auspicious when you hear it." ”
"If you like it." Wen Dile hehe.
The crown prince and King Kang glanced at each other, and they both saw the ridicule in each other's eyes, a place like a tent leaf, they didn't want to give it to them for nothing, and they had to bother to govern it if they didn't have any output, and the father and emperor would just deceive a fool like the fourth child who didn't know anything.
……
The Hundred Flowers Banquet is over, the third prince King Kang chose the side concubine, and the fourth prince King Yu chose the main concubine, but this concubine is a little young, and Fang Ling is only eight years old.
Yu Dynasty walked towards Ning Yu Palace, the breeze was blowing, the crimson prince's clothes moved slightly, and a few petals fell on his shoulders, he didn't care, thinking about how to explain this matter to his mother.
Ningyu Palace is very large, all the gardens behind the main hall have been built, and the flowers and trees planted in it are relatively tall, like peach trees, pear trees, begonias, plum trees or something, come in from the main entrance, although you can't see the garden behind, but you can smell the fragrance of flowers.
King Yu stood at the gate of Ningyu Palace, his gaze gradually deepened, as if he had passed through the main hall and landed in the garden behind which he could not see.
He was slightly distracted for a moment, and the corners of his mouth again pursed a faint smile, and swaggered into the main hall.
Ning Yu Palace is the place where the Jade Concubine lives, the Jade Concubine is the first beauty in Daqi, and this Ning Yu Palace can be said to be the most luxurious place in the entire palace.
The queen is a dignified and virtuous person, and the place where she lives is very simple except for the rituals that the queen must have.
The biological mother of the second prince, Concubine Shu, is a small jasper-type person, she does not pay attention to the preciousness of the place she lives, only for comfort, there are not only large pillows sewn by herself, but also a curtain of a thousand gold, so that people have a sense of warmth at home.
The Jade Concubine is different, she is extremely beautiful, she likes beautiful jewelry, and the furnishings in the palace are all luxurious, although they are valuable, but they lack some warmth.
Xiao Yanfeng's phoenix eyes skimmed over these brilliant furnishings, and the smile on the corner of his mouth carried a hint of mockery, like luxury? That's just the world's misunderstanding of the mother, or rather, the mother deliberately left such an impression.
He didn't stop, and went straight into the study on the west side, and sure enough, Concubine Yu was leaning on the soft couch under the back window, holding a book in her hand to read. This back window is connected to the garden behind the hall, and the jade concubine's favorite is here, the sun shines warmly on her body through the propped up window, and the sun wafts in with the pleasant fragrance of flowers in the garden.
The jade concubine was wearing a ruyi smoky cloud brocade palace dress, combing a flying fairy bun, and swaying with a golden silk dotted cui shuangluan, she looked serene, leaning lazily on the soft couch, and her skin showed a translucent white in the sun.
"Mother." Xiao Yanfeng walked directly to the soft couch and sat beside Concubine Yu.
Concubine Yu put the book aside, sat up slightly straighter, pulled Xiao Yanfeng's hand, and said angrily: "It's still cold outside, but you are wearing such thin clothes, look, your hands are cold." ”
"It's not to please the little girl, I deliberately dress better, but as a result, alas." Xiao Yanfeng sighed, whether it looks good or not, it is estimated that the little girl doesn't care at all, in her eyes, the handsome King Yu is not as moving as a chef with a big waist and a round waist.
Concubine Yu suddenly became interested, "Oh, which little girl does Yanfeng fancy to?" ”
"The daughter of Jiping Hou's family, Miss Ye Si." Xiao Yanfeng didn't hide it, and told him about today's concubine selection one by one, including the special handkerchief, "My son chose her for a reason, she is a very cute and kind little girl, I will bring her another day, and when the mother concubine sees it, she will definitely like her." ”
Concubine Yu's beautiful eyes were slightly red, "It's the concubine who dragged you down." "Her son is a brilliant figure, but he wants to pretend to be a fool. Other princes choose concubines, and they are all openly and honestly chosen, but her son has to use this kind of hasty playful means to choose the concubine he wants.
"Mother, what are these words?" Xiao Yan smiled narrowly: "Mother, that little girl is only eight years old this year, and if the mother wants to see her grandson, she has to wait." ”
"Only eight years old?" Concubine Yu's attention was suddenly diverted, and she patted his hand, "You kid, why don't you wait for two years?" Deciding on a family affair at such a young age, her parents will definitely be extremely reluctant. "She lives in this harem and doesn't care about outside affairs, so she doesn't know who Jininghou is, and naturally she doesn't know that Jininghou has been missing for seven years.
"She's not doing well." Xiao Yanfeng introduced the situation of the Jining Hou Mansion to Concubine Yu, "My son decided his family affairs so early, and he also wanted to try his best to protect her." Now that he was born again, he didn't want her to be the lonely orphan girl again, not only to protect her, but also to protect her family.
Concubine Yu nodded in agreement, "The style of speech is right, this little girl is too pitiful, she has no parents to take care of her, only a brother, it's really ......" Speaking of this, she was slightly stunned, there are no parents, only an elder brother, if this brother is a mercenary person, it may really cause a tragedy in her sister's life.
Xiao Yanfeng's eyes also dimmed for a moment, the mother must have thought of herself, the little girl is pitiful, and the mother is also pitiful.
Concubine Yu quickly came back to her senses, "I don't know if there is a reliable person around the little girl, or I'll pick a safe grandmother by her side to take care of her?" "If the little girl's mother has not been in charge of the feed for many years, and the maids and mothers-in-law around her are all arranged by the aunt in the second room, then the little girl's situation will be very bad.
She lives deep in the palace, and is used to seeing the trick of you fighting for me, even if the second room of this big house is a brother, it may also calculate each other for the sake of interests, if the second room of the Hou Mansion is a bad heart, it is likely to be unfavorable to the little girl, not to mention anything else, just the maid and woman around her are muttering something over time, it is possible to lead people crooked.
"No, I've already picked a candidate." Xiao Yanfeng understood his mother's concerns, but he had already personally selected an experienced grandmother and was ready to send it over with the cook to take care of his little princess.
Concubine Yu nodded, since her son said that there were already candidates, she didn't have to worry about it anymore. She trusts her son very much, in the eyes of others, her son is an arrogant and domineering prince, only she knows, how good her son is, not to mention knowledgeable, skillful in bow and horse, just that deep thoughts, meticulous actions, is incomparable to others. He opened the mansion early, and outsiders thought that he was not bound by the palace and had fun freely outside, but in fact, there were many capable people in his palace.
What makes her most gratifying is that no matter how deep her son's scheming is, he never hides what he does, he secretly cultivates power and absorbs talents, and these secrets that must not be revealed are quietly told to her. She doesn't expect her son to ascend to the throne one day, but she can't be too weak, at least she must have the ability to protect herself.
After thinking about it, she told again: "The little girl is still young, if you have time to accompany her more, she will naturally be close to you." ”
Xiao Yanfeng responded with a smile. For him, the two most important people in this life are the mother concubine and Qianqian, and to live a new life, he not only has to protect Qianqian and her family, but also to protect the mother and the person she cares about the most.
