After three rounds of drinking, Emperor Hua coughed lightly, and said: "Today's palace banquet, I have something to say." ”

The ministers followed the prestige, and they all pricked up their ears and listened. What the emperor is going to say next must be a big deal, otherwise he would not say it on such an occasion. After all, when the Mid-Autumn Festival comes back for three days, no matter how big it is, you may forget it.

"The spring of next year will be the state banquet of the five countries, and this year's state banquet will be organized by Dahua, and all six departments need to go all out." Vantage nodded, looking at his deterrent power with satisfaction. Vantage enjoyed this condescending and admired feeling.

"The minister must spare no effort to serve the country!" The six Shangshu invariably came out and kowtowed deeply. It's over, and I'm going to start working overtime again.

Emperor Hua nodded with satisfaction and continued: "In this case, then I will hand over the matter of the state banquet to the crown prince and King Xuan, and you must be good at assisting the prince and King Xuan." This state banquet represents Dahua and there is no room for error. Vantage looked at Long Yiheng and Long Yicheng, and didn't know why, Vantage always seemed to like to put these two brothers together to do things.

"The emperor (father) can rest assured, the ministers (sons) will live up to expectations!"

"With the help of all Aiqing, I am naturally relieved." Vantage raised his glass, greeted everyone for a while, and raised his head to toast the wine.

Naturally, everyone didn't dare to slack off, and they all toasted, smiling flatteringly and flatteringly.

After a while, Emperor Hua suddenly paused, and then asked: "Protector of the country, if I remember correctly, you will be in time at the end of the first month of next year, right?" "After the marriage, the marriage will naturally be on the agenda.

Shi Yuqi's chopsticks paused in mid-air, then put them down casually, and nodded, "Father Qi, that's true." Shi Yuqi's eyes flashed darkly, if Emperor Hua didn't want to provoke her, it was best not to test her with a marriage event! She had a way to get Vantage to recognize the marital autonomy he had promised.

"The Ministry of Rites is busy this year!" Vantage naturally will not break his promise, although there is one less marriage chip, but he does not have to worry about the rebellion of the Shi family army. But this is not certain, because Emperor Hua did not promise Shi Yuqi in front of everyone, if Shi Yuqi offended him, it would only be a matter of minutes to take it back. After this incident, I don't know how many people will come to the door to propose, Shi Yuqi is busy even if he doesn't agree, so that he will not be constrained when he arranges some things.

But the queen doesn't know what the emperor agreed to Shi Yuqi, listening to the emperor say this, does the emperor want to marry Shi Yuqi, but it's not good to say it directly? immediately said with a smile, "Protecting the country, you have to be in time, and this marriage event should also be put on the agenda." "I have to say that after getting along with the emperor for so many years, the queen still understands the character of Emperor Hua to some extent.

Shi Yuqi's eyes flashed, and he looked up at the queen, his eyes were full of grievances, "But I want to accompany my mother for a few more years!" "Even if she agrees to marry, what family would dare to ask to marry her if the rumors arise again? It's just a group of snobbers who sell fame and seek fame and fortune, they dare to marry, but she still doesn't marry!

At the beginning, the rumors were allowed to spread, and what I was waiting for was the state where no one dared to marry today! Instead of fighting for a man with a group of women she doesn't know, she might as well be a bad star and be lonely for a lifetime.

"Tsk, as long as you're in this palace, when won't you see me?" The queen smiled, not relieved by Shi Yuqi's rhetoric.

In the palace? Hehe, what is the queen hinting at her? Married to the palace? Except for that little selfishness, the queen just fell in love with the 200,000 military talismans and the entire Protector General's Mansion used to marry her. If you have these two things, are you still afraid that Long Yiheng will not be able to win the throne? It's just that not everything in the world will go as the queen wants.

In fact, no matter how bad her reputation is, because of the military power and wealth in her hands, there are definitely not a few people who want to marry her. Therefore, Shi Yuqi wants to let the rumors rise again, until no one dares to marry even if she has the military power and wealth in her hands.

The emperor did not confiscate the military power, naturally he had his considerations, and the various families naturally took a fancy to this. The first princess in history to hold the power of the army, how favored she is, naturally there is no need to say much. But Shi Yuqi is not so favored as she looks on the face, but because she killed people who couldn't be killed for Emperor Hua, and she still guarded the huge door.

Those young talents who were eager to climb up felt that if they could climb up to the crony of the princess who protected the country, and get all the wealth of the military power in her hands and the entire general's mansion plus the dowry of the former general's wife, it would not be an unattainable thing. can even make his own family rise and replace the third family among the top ten families, the Shi family.

However, if the abacus is played well, the premise is that the protector of the country will be able to see it. The emperor did not directly refer to the marriage, which means that the emperor will still respect the opinion of the princess who protects the country.

To win the favor of the princess who protects the country, it is not difficult for young talents to boast of themselves. On weekdays, the princess in their eyes is a cruel and pampered little girl. Not to mention that she has been away from the intrigue in the palace since she was a child, and she has no scheming, even if she is a little scheming, a little girl who is less than fifteen years old is not easy for them to catch?

But no one knew that under Shi Yuqi's Lori face, there lived an old woman in her thirties. And this old woman is still a ruthless and emotionally wounded old woman.

In other words, Shi Yuqi will take a fancy to those so-called young talents in their teens and twenties. When those so-called young and talented aristocratic sons and brothers hit Shi Yuqi's idea, they were doomed to not succeed.

"The queen mother will make fun of people!" Shi Yuqi smiled and fooled over, and set his eyes on the food in front of him. Ignore all the explicit hints of the queen and eat wholeheartedly.

Joke, she doesn't want to get married at the age of fifteen, and then come out with a ball when she is underage! Although she is already an old woman in her heart, her face is still a fourteen-year-old Lori face.

"The princess of the protectorate said this, this prince is a little curious, I don't know which son can get into the eyes of Her Royal Highness the princess?" Qian Ruoqing escaped the destruction of the eldest princess of Yong'an, and her eyes turned to Shi Yuqi again. This girl is very interesting, and there will be no fewer surprises in the future when I want to intersect with her, but this surprise, whether it is surprise or joy, is not within Qian Ruoqing's control.

The eldest princess of Yongan was worried that her son would be obsessed with the princess who protected the country, so she couldn't help but drag Qian Ruoqing. In all fairness, the eldest princess doesn't think Shi Yuqi is an excellent daughter-in-law. If she doesn't have military power in her hands, it's okay to say, it's not that she can't accept a daughter-in-law who is too straight, after all, her son's liking is the most important thing. But when he was born, Yuqi still held the military power in his hands, and they also had the military power in the hands of the Pingjiang County Palace.

She is the emperor's sister, and the concubine is a general, if she marries a daughter-in-law who holds military power, she will inevitably be criticized and suspicious by the emperor, and eventually cause a catastrophe.

And when he looked at Shi Yuqi, he didn't look like he had fallen in love with Qian Ruoqing.

"You give me a few words!" The eldest princess secretly twisted Qian Ruoqing, her willow eyebrows were upside down, and there was a slight anger on her charming face. This son is really not worrying at all.

The eldest princess's concubine is the king, although she is only a county king, but she also holds real power in her hands. If you really marry Shi Yuqi, the Qian family will not be far from destruction.

"Mother, I'm just asking!" Qian Ruoqing smiled flatteringly, took the eldest princess's hand and looked at the king of Pingjiang County, "Father, you are blocking some concubines, it hurts!" ”

Shi Yuqi pursed the corners of his mouth, as if he was holding back a smile, "If the prince of the world says that anyone can enter the eyes of this princess, as far as it seems at present, there is none." But I'm sure there will be. "Who wouldn't say it, it's good if others believe it, does it matter if it's true or not?

"The princess's vision is so high?" Qian Ruoqing asked rhetorically as if in disbelief. It turns out that Gong Chenyao will also be disliked!

"Since you are going to live a lifetime, you naturally want to find someone who fits your eyes." However, those who can meet her eyes must withstand her difficulties, otherwise, how to be a hero of the world.

Gong Chenjiao and Long Yiheng couldn't help but think of what Shi Yuqi said again.

"My crush is a hero. I knew that one day he would appear in a high-profile situation, wearing golden armor and stepping on colorful auspicious clouds to marry me! ”

These words are indeed a bit shocking. But if someone can really rack their brains for a woman to do this, it will be painstaking.

Of course, if it is a person with evil intentions, he must be beaten to death with a stick, so as not to cause endless trouble.

"The princess is high, Ruoqing is impressed." Qian Ruoqing arched her hand and stopped.

"Protector, look at Gong Shizi's eyes, they're almost on you!" Although Long Yiting had the intention to let Shi Yuqi be her sister-in-law, King Xiang had a dream, and the goddess had no intention.

Shi Yuqi paused his chopsticks, then picked up the wine glass and toasted Long Yiting, "It seems that Yongle is Sichun." ”

"Dead girl! What nonsense! Carefully I tear your mouth apart! Long Yiting pretended to glare at Shi Yuqi fiercely, and took a sip of the wine.

Shi Yuqi smiled at Yan Yan, and after sweeping around, he didn't find Long Yijue, "Yongle, where is the third emperor brother?" ”

If you want to say who is the most out of tune in the palace, it is undoubtedly the third prince Long Yijue. is used to wandering on weekdays, and there is no one on the mouth, and a mouth may not be a meat joke, and he is also a bastard, which makes the queen quite a headache.

But Shi Yuqi felt that this third brother was not simple. If it weren't for her long-term habits, she wouldn't have been able to capture the occasional true feelings in Long Yijue's eyes.

"I don't know, maybe I'm going to mess around again." Long Yiting pursed her lips, and she didn't like her brother's style of acting, "Why are you asking him?" ”

"Oh, it's just that everyone is here, and it's a little curious to be alone with him." Shi Yuqi lowered his head and picked up his wine glass, covering his slightly squirming lips with the action of drinking, "Ying Yi, go and check, the recent whereabouts of the third prince." ”
