Chapter 87: Sorrowful (1)

A sudden palace banquet can be regarded as advancing the excitement of the New Year's Festival.

"Shi Jiu, after all, this time it was the Queen Mother who personally named you..."

Mrs. Mei also knew what the Queen Mother meant, and it was expected that her grandson didn't want to go, but if she didn't go this time, there must be something to say in the palace.

"Grandfather, do you mean to let your grandson go?"

Mrs. Mei looked at Mei Shijiu, and the corners of her mouth moved slightly, "If you don't want to go, then you won't go, but there has to be an explanation." ”

"I suddenly felt cold, and it was inconvenient to see the nobles with my sick face."

Mei Shijiu replied naturally, as if that was the case.

The old lady said that she understood, and sighed slightly, "After Fangfei's matter, the saint and the queen mother have a heart, and it is not easy to speak at this moment, but the king's heart is unpredictable... This time, King Su's matter, the saint intends to make a big deal small, and today he has knocked on the old man's side, and in the future, King Su has to be careful. ”

"King Su, this person will be repaid, and the saint favors him, if he really succeeds in the future, grandfather, our Mei family's life is not easy."

Mei Shijiu told the truth.

"King Su is not a king's talent..."The old lady's words were not because of personal grudges, but from the heart.

Mei Shijiu got up and went to the bookshelf, took out a book and looked at it casually, "Grandfather, isn't King Su, what about the prince?" ”

The old lady was silent, he had taught the prince whether the prince was suitable for the king, and the old lady knew it very well in his heart.

"What does grandfather think, what about the five princes?"

Mei Shijiu's sudden sentence made the old lady's face change slightly, and she looked at her grandson a little seriously.

"Shi Jiu, our Mei family can still stand after several dynasties, that is, we always adhere to one point, do not form a party for personal gain, and do not participate in the struggle for a big position..."

Mei Shijiu turned around and looked at the old lady with a smile, "Grandfather, grandson understands that our Mei family is only loyal to the court, only loyal to the monarch of the dynasty, and grandson is just chatting with grandfather." ”

The old lady was obviously relieved, and that was good.

"Speaking of the five princes, the old man was really not impressed before, the biological mother of the five princes had a low status, and there was no maternal protection behind him, now think about it, these years, can be stable in the intricate harem to this day... It's not easy, and this time..."

"Grandfather said before, the news of the flood in Jinzhou came, the five princes had twice asked for disaster relief, but the saint did not pay attention, grandfather recommended him this time, one is to repay his favors, and the other is for the sake of the people of Jinzhou, rather than let the king or the prince and several other princes go over, it is better to let the five princes go, the five princes have no branches to rely on, they can only rely on their ability to stand, if the saint should be down, he will do his best to do the errand well in order to make meritorious service, and win a place to be crowned king by merit, for the people of Jinzhou, this should be the best choice."

"That's right, I have recommended it to the saint, this matter can be done nine times out of ten, at this time, the saint is sandwiched between the prince and King Su has a headache, the five princes are not touched, and they have no support, but they have become the best candidate."

The old lady listened to Mei Shijiu's analysis and then said, and roughly understood what Mei Shijiu meant, these five princes are not simple people.

"Grandfather, I happened to meet the five princes today, and I have told him about it, and the grandson was also the same as my grandfather at first, the five princes were to take the opportunity to make meritorious service and be awarded the meritorious service, but... Grandfather and grandson, it seems, are wrong. ”

"Oh?"

Lao Taifu couldn't help but be nervous, if this disaster relief candidate didn't have the intention to provide disaster relief, it would harm the people of Jinzhou, and the person he recommended was also a big mistake.

Mei Shijiu saw that the old lady had misunderstood, and hurriedly explained: "Grandfather, don't be nervous, what the grandson means, the fifth prince may not be entirely because he wants to take the opportunity to make meritorious contributions, but he is a little anxious for the people of Jinzhou." ”

Today's conversation gave him a new understanding of the inconspicuous fifth prince in the past.

"Really?" In this way, it is really a blessing for the people of Golden State.

"Grandfather can observe one or two in the court in the future, and with grandfather's eyesight, if you pay attention, you will definitely be able to distinguish the true from the false."

This is only his senses, and he cannot impress his grandfather's judgment.

The Mei family does not participate in the battle for the throne, but if this prince is indeed suitable for the king, he has the people in his heart, he has the community in his eyes, and he has the talent to govern the world, when he can, he can reach out to help hide it, Mei Jiazhong is loyal, but he doesn't have to be foolish and loyal.

"In the future, the old man will pay attention to it, if this is the case, it is the blessing of the court, Shi Jiu, I am afraid that your marriage will not drag on for long, you have to have a number in your heart, if you don't want to be a concubine, you will set a granddaughter-in-law for me as soon as possible!"

This is the first time that Lao Taifu has issued a wanted warrant.

Mei Shijiu raised her eyebrows, "Grandfather, I heard that you played chess with the old prince of the Chu Mansion yesterday?" ”

The old lady's eyes flashed, "So what?" ”

"It's the old prince's trick for you, this trick may work for Mu Han, but it's useless for me, grandfather still don't bother, as for marriage... Don't worry, your granddaughter-in-law will definitely have it, but the time has not yet come. ”

The old lady's eyes lit up, and she suddenly came to her senses, and looked at her grandson with a happy face, "Do you have a favorite girl?" Which one? Grandfather helped to refer to the details? ”

The iron tree blooms and the water flows backwards, which is too rare.

"Grandfather, it's too early, it's not time to say it, when the time is ripe, Shi Jiu will definitely let Grandfather know."

The old lady is itching, it's better not to tell him, doesn't this make him anxious?

What kind of girl is this?

can enter the eyes of his grandson, and he is so cautious, he must be a good girl who is one in a million.

Ouch, this iron tree of their old Mei family is finally about to bloom.

"Grandfather, there is one more thing, you can ponder it when you play chess with the old prince next time."

"Huh?"

"What do you think, how are Fang Fei and Mu Han?" At first, he thought it was Mu Han's nonsense, but the kid's reaction... It needs to be investigated.

"What?" The old lady is not calm.

"My grandson just thinks... The second sister's temperament... You don't want your granddaughter to be a green lantern ancient Buddha for the rest of your life. ”

"Did Mu Han tell you something?" The old lady is shrewd, he knows that his grandson will not say this for no reason.

"Oh, he said that if the old prince wants him to marry, he will marry Fang Fei."

Mei Shijiu's serious paraphrase, as for the process, that is... The matter between the grandfather and the old prince.

Mei Shijiu dropped this sentence and left, leaving the old lady with an excited face.

Mei Shijiu thought that Yun Chuxue would not participate in this palace banquet, but he also underestimated Yun Shangde's lower limit.

Yun Chuxue was suddenly about to enter the palace, Yun Yinling was a little caught off guard, and she was anxious all night while helping to prepare for the trip.

She knew that this time it was Yun Chuxue who was going by herself.

"Mother Li, why do you say these six girls want to enter the palace? What's going on in her mind? ”

"The eldest girl really wants to know, just ask, the eldest girl speaks, and the sixth lady will definitely tell you."

"I know, but she didn't take the initiative to say it, she didn't want to say it for the time being, why should I embarrass this child, I'm just worried that there are too many rules in this palace, and most of them are nobles who can't afford to offend..."

"Miss Sixth is a measured person, don't worry too much about the eldest girl, the old slave thinks that the eldest lady should pay attention to it."

Yun Yinling listened to the movements in her hand, sighed and sat down, "I don't know how the sixth girl told her father, her father really agreed to let her go, it's strange that the eldest lady doesn't hold a grudge in her heart, Mother Li, you have been paying more attention to the movements in the house recently." ”
