Returned to the idle building a month ago

It was a snowy day, and the ground inside and outside the capital was covered with a layer of snow, and the rutted tracks of the carriages were left all the way, from far to near in the heavy snow. 【Fengyun Reading Network. 】

A young man got out of the car, handsome, gorgeously dressed, and his gestures exuded the air of aristocracy. Looking at the plaque above the gate, which had just been swept this morning, he sighed silently in his heart. It wasn't the first time he'd heard of this place, but it was the first time he'd set foot here.

I was welcomed through the gate and walked along the winding verandah, feeling warmer the more I walked inside. He untied his thick cloak and handed it to the maid behind him. He walked across the arched bridge and came to the wooden house built by Tangli Xiaozhu.

Under the layers of curtains, there was a woman sitting, and she vaguely saw a touch of red clothes.

"Childe, please be seated." He was guided by the maid to sit in a chair, but his eyes were always fixed on the shadow under the curtain. Yue Xi's curiosity has never been heavy, but he has followed his father since he was a child, and in the past few years, he has been fighting with his father's army, so it is inevitable that he will have a few more eyes.

A few days ago, I got an unsigned post inviting him to come here today. Although he didn't know the other party's intentions, he still came to see if there was a Hongmen banquet prepared for him here.

"I wonder why Your Excellency invited me here?" Yue Xi took a sip of the tea he had just served, and praised in his heart that it was a good thing, and it was the best thing to drink in winter.

The figure under the curtain flickered, the curtain was opened little by little, and Yue Xi saw a beautiful woman walking over. A bright red woven gold plum blossom robe wrapped around her slender body, and her smiling face was full of eyes, making her face particularly eye-catching.

He had seen this woman, who had entered the palace with his father earlier, and had a relationship outside the Qianqing Palace. At that time, he heard the father-in-law next to him call her Yi Concubine Niangniang.

"Yue Xi was clumsy, but he didn't know that it was his mother who invited him today." Yue Xi immediately put down the teacup in his hand and respectfully bowed to her.

"Childe doesn't have to be so polite." Chunxi smiled slightly, raised his hand to help him up, and said: "I invited Gongzi over today, because I think that Gongzi is a young hero, and he has already fought on the battlefield at a young age, and his ability is not very admirable." ”

"But with the prestige of my father, I have gained some fame, which is really not a skill." Yue Xi didn't understand the meaning of today's Xuanxi, and he didn't dare to speak or move. Out of politeness, he didn't dare to look up to face her sloppy face, but only lowered his head slightly to look at the faint pair of feet under her robe. He didn't speculate about her purpose today, he just quietly listened to her and waited for her to speak.

Hearing him so objective and humble, Chun Xi smiled again: "Gongzi doesn't have to be modest, although Prince An served the country and made meritorious contributions in the Battle of the Three Feudatories, I also heard about Gongzi's heroic deeds on the battlefield." I invited Childe here today, just for small talk, Childe doesn't have to be so restrained, please sit down. ”

Yue Xi just sat down, and listened to Chun Xi again: "I heard that the son has a sister who is waiting for the word boudoir, this year is fifteen, and he is at the age of marriage, I wonder if Prince An has found a good son-in-law for this Gege?" ”

I don't understand why Chun Xi changed his words, but he actually asked about the things in his family, Yue Xi said: "No, I only heard my father mention it a few days ago, and it hasn't been decided yet." ”

"I have a cousin who has just reached the age of a weak crown and has been promoted to the rank of Lan Ling's guard, and the family intends to find a family for him. The palace heard the emperor mention it, saying that the seven grids on Prince An's mansion are both talented and beautiful, and the palace wants to match, I don't know what the prince wants? "Chun Xi doesn't beat around the bush, and is very straightforward.

Yue Xi was stunned for a moment, understood the meaning of Chunxi, and said unhurriedly: "The marriage of the seventh sister is the idea of the father and the mother, and Yue Xi does not dare to say anything. But the mother has this intention, and presumably the father will not refuse. ”

"Then I have to bother the son to go back and find out." Chun Xi smiled: "I believe I won't disappoint this palace." ”

Yue Xi glanced at Chun Xi and said respectfully: "Yue Xi must bring Niangniang's heart." ”

"What this palace wants is to make this good thing happen." Chun Xi said: "I heard that in Prince An's mansion, the most popular person is Gongzi, but the most favored by the elders is Shizi. If there is a chance, Childe can not be bound by the elders and young, and win the love of Prince An and Fujin, presumably Childe will not give up easily. ”

"The son and I are the same mother, and we are equally loved by the elders, so why fight for a chance to prove it." Yue Xi looked at Chun Xi vigilantly, for some reason, he felt that the woman in front of him seemed to see through his heart, this fire that he was hiding in the depths. He knows that he has never revealed his heart to anyone, he has always been silent, and he has never argued with his brother at home, no one should know that he has been suppressed for so many years since he was a child.

And at this moment, the person in front of him directly cut open his heart and gave him a hard blow.

Chun Xi turned around and said indifferently: "If Gongzi doesn't have such a heart, he will be regarded as never coming here." This family matter, the palace will let the emperor talk to Prince An another day. Childe, please come back. ”

"What does the mother want?" Yue Xi didn't move, still sitting on the chair, his eyes like a torch looking at the back of Chunxi. He still didn't speculate, even if he had a vague sense of what she wanted him to do, and knew that she just wanted to get away with it, he still wanted to ask for clarification.

Chun Xi said: "What this palace wants is not what the son wants." If it's the same road, the palace should tell you. Now it seems that the Tao is different, and he is not reluctant to be a son. ”

"Before coming here, Yue Xi had inquired about this Guixian Building." Yue Xi didn't answer Chunxi's words, but said: "This was created by Prince Yu before he married into the palace, although Yue Xi has not been in the capital for a long time, he has also heard about the deeds of the owner of the idle building. I have also heard some stories about Fujin and Niangniang. ”

"Oh?" Chunxi turned around and asked curiously, "I don't know what strange things are told in this story?" ”

"Niangniang knows better than Yue Xi." Yue Xi said: "Yue Xi knows very little about Niangniang. The last time I met my mother in the palace, I heard a few gossip. It's just that I heard that I didn't get along with Concubine Tong. ”

Chun Xi smiled, only felt that this young man was not simple, and it was not wrong to invite him over today. He didn't just hear gossip about himself.

"Whether the relationship between this palace and Concubine Tong is good or bad depends on how the prince chooses." Ulva said.

Yue Xi stood up and saluted again: "Don't worry, this marriage will definitely be successful." ”

After speaking, Yue Xi had already turned around and left. This promise was said so easily, Yue Xi suddenly felt relieved. It turned out that being seen through was actually such a mood. There was still someone who understood what he wanted. Chun Xi is right, the opportunity has come, and there is no reason for him not to grasp it.

From childhood to adulthood, he was better than the son of the world everywhere, but he never expected his parents. In their eyes, the son is the one who will inherit the title in the future, and he will never be the object of his parents' attention. Even if this son is enviably good, they will only think that the talent of the son is the most important.

Mu Hui put on a cloak for Chunxi and followed out of the wooden house.

"Niangniang, today's Yue Xi Gongzi, can he really help Niangniang stop Concubine Tong from being crowned?" On the way back, Mu Hui was still worried. It is not easy to say that Hui Concubine is moving, this time he did not directly find Prince An Yue Le, but found the third prince in the house, and he said that it was a family matter, and he did not mention half of the matter after the seal.

Chunxi lifted the curtain and looked at the snowflakes falling outside the carriage, she smiled and said: "To marry Prince An, in fact, only one holy decree from the emperor is required. I only told him that the emperor admired this Qigege, but I didn't directly ask the emperor to give him a marriage, and he already understood that this marriage was just a situation between the two families. I didn't go directly to Prince An, or even to Shizi, but bypassed them to find him, which is enough to show my appreciation for him. If he is ambitious enough to rise above his brother, he can't just rely on the family, and then he can only live in the shadow of the son. Even if he has strategy and talent, he doesn't have that luck that is valued after all. Now, I gave him a chance, and he was very clear about the matter between me and Concubine Tong, so he naturally knew what to do for the best. ”

"But can this Prince Yue Xi really persuade Prince An to oppose the matter of the queen in the court?" Mu Hui was still worried.

Chun Xi said with relief: "What I need is not for him to support me in the back position, as long as he does not agree with Li Tong Ruofei as the queen, whether it is neutral or opposed, it is a good thing for me." What's more, I have the heart to marry Prince An, even the emperor acquiesces, and my cousin is a talent, if Prince An is not too picky, he can't see the situation clearly, and he naturally knows that this marriage will only make money and not lose money. ”

"The slave and maid understand." Mu Hui nodded and said with a smile: "As long as Prince An agrees to this family affair, whether it is for the sake of the emperor's face or the mother's face, he will not agree to make Concubine Tong the queen." Moreover, Niangniang is now favored by the six palaces, and with the backing of Lord Han and Prince Yu, if she marries Niangniang, it will naturally be a mutually beneficial situation. And Prince Yue Xi only needs to persuade Prince An to agree to this family business, that is, he will stand on the same line as his mother, and he will get twice the result with half the effort in the future. Convincing this marriage that is almost a foregone conclusion is actually a pie falling from the sky for Yue Xi, and he has no reason not to agree. ”

"Looks like you understand what I mean." Chunxi lowered the curtain and looked at her: "I just don't know what the situation is on the two sisters' side." ”

"Mother's peace of mind." Mu Hui said confidently: "It shouldn't be a problem on Lord Han's side, and as for Concubine Yun's side, it shouldn't be a big problem." Niangniang only needs to go back to the palace and wait for the good news. ”

The ground covered with heavy snow is another obvious trace. This winter, it seems that the choice of everyone's fate has already been made.
