In Xiao Qixing's harem, in addition to the queen who has passed away, there are two people on the concubine seat, namely Zhao Guifei and Mu Guifei, Zhao Guifei gave birth to the second prince Xiao Yiheng, Mu Guifei has no children, easy-going temperament, has always taken Zhao Guifei first, and takes more care of Xiao Yiheng. The Mu family's power in the capital is second only to the Zhao family, so even if Mu Guifei has no children, she can still sit firmly in the position of concubine.

The woman in the scroll in the eunuch's hand is Mu Mengyao, the niece of Mu Guifei's mother's family.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, Miss Mu has just turned seventeen this year, and her birthday is exactly the sixth day of the sixth month of June. His father is Mu Yang, Marquis of Wei Wu, and his mother is the concubine brought back by Marquis Mu, although she is a concubine, she is deeply loved, and the Mu family is even more devoted to training, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and people are first-class and insightful. The big eunuch smiled and informed Xiao Yichen of Mu Mengyao's situation.

No matter how fanciful he is, Xiao Yichen looks like he lacks interest. Knowing his son Mo Ruo's father, Xiao Qixing understands that his son is good at everything. Gentle and polite, relaxed and moderate, but not very keen on women. In the past, he was afraid of his weak health, so he didn't let the maid teach him about men and women, but he didn't expect that there would be the current problem.

"Chen'er, in addition to these few, there are a lot of portraits of everyone's ladies here, you have to take a look at them one by one, if you also like them, you can choose them as side concubines and concubines, you are really alone in the prince's mansion, after marrying a wife, someone will help you take care of the house, recuperate your body, and you can also have the experience to learn how to govern the country." The heart of a loving father is overflowing, and Xiao Qixing sincerely plans for Xiao Yichen.

"Although Mu Mengyao is a concubine, she is also a noble daughter of the Hou Mansion, and she can be your crown princess, you have always been close to the Huo family, Mu Guifei has no children, you married her niece, and there will be a bond in the future, and the Mu family can be used by you, you have to consider this matter carefully." This is also the reason why after the Mu family sent Mu Mengyao's portrait, Xiao Qixing had an intention.

The beloved son of his parents will have a long-term plan, and the position under him will be passed on to Chen'er sooner or later, even if there are other sons, but they are not as important as Chen'er, so he misses them.

Xiao Yichen listened quietly, without interrupting Xiao Qixing, how could he not understand what his father had planned for him. Jiangshan Sheji is always the first in the royal family, what is the emperor's personal will? In order to achieve an end, a woman can be a means, as well as herself.

There is no family that is not greedy for authority, and there is no emperor who is not obsessed with the throne, as long as he is in this position for one day, he has no choice, flesh and blood? The emperor doesn't need such feelings, the height is unbearable, and how much power he enjoys, how much responsibility he has to bear.

If it was Xiao Yichen before, he would definitely agree with Xiao Qixing's words without hesitation, after all, what he said was right. He has no outside family to rely on, and when the wolves are around, if he enlists the Huo family and the Mu family to support him, then he may no longer have any worries.

Now Mu Mengyao is young and beautiful, and she is praised like a fairy, and from any position, Xiao Yichen has no reason to refuse such a princess who is suitable in all aspects. Even if she is ugly and speechless, or even arrogant and arrogant, it doesn't matter, what he cares about is the Mu family standing behind Mu Mengyao.

What about a concubine, becoming the crown princess is Mu Mengyao's greatest contribution to the Mu family. The current crown princess, the future queen mother, the Mu family will also rise because of Xiao Yichen's accession to the throne. It's a mutually beneficial thing.

But that is Xiao Yichen, who will weigh the pros and cons in the past, and will hide himself to cater to others and live carefully, not the current him, not him after meeting Jingyi!

Rong Hui, who has been treating himself as if he didn't exist, held his breath, for some reason he just felt as if his master was going to do something? There is a young man in Jingyi in the middle, even if these girls go down to earth, the master may not take a second look, after all, they are all women......

Their master likes Jingyi...... And Jingyi is a man...... In terms of gender, these girls lose, okay?

Xiao Yichen, who thought he would nod and agree to the arrangement, was silent at the moment and didn't say a word. Xiao Qixing frowned and looked at him fixedly.

As if deciding something, Xiao Yichen raised his head, still gently hooked the corners of his lips, and said in a respectful tone: "My father has worked so hard for his son, and his son is both grateful and moved. Erchen also agreed with his father's words, with Erchen's age, he should indeed choose a woman to live in the middle palace. It's just that Erchen is afraid that he will disappoint his father this time. ”

"What do you mean?" Xiao Qixing frowned and asked.

"Erchen wants to postpone the election of the crown princess." Looking at Xiao Qixing firmly, Xiao Yichen said his decision.

"Why?" No one has ever dared to disobey the emperor, not even his own son, Xiao Qixing's face darkened for a moment.

The big eunuch on the side can also guess Xiao Qixing's thoughts, since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that he didn't want to choose the crown princess, the atmosphere in the palace has been suppressed, and there is a faint sense of slaughter. I can't help but sweat for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

Rong Hui tried even harder to control his trembling legs, so as not to let himself kneel on the spot.

Xiao Yichen lifted his robe straight and knelt on the ground, and gave Xiao Qi a big salute before saying: "The son knows that he is reckless, so he will compensate his father first." Suspend the selection of the crown princess, the body of the son has not yet healed, and it has always been hung by the imperial doctors, as the father and the emperor saw, there have been repeated in the past few days, and the matter of choosing the concubine can not be sloppy, which is cumbersome, and the son is afraid that he will not be able to hold on, if something really goes wrong in the middle, it will not lose the royal face. The second is that the murderer who chased and killed Erchen has not yet been found, if he marries the crown princess now, maybe the other party will become more serious after being stimulated, and Erchen's body is weak, not to mention the crown princess, even he may not be able to protect himself. ”

said two reasons one after another, both of which were closely related to Xiao Yichen's own life and death, and for a while, Xiao Qixing was almost laughed at angrily, even if he was unhappy in his heart, he had to think about it carefully.

"As the national teacher said, the woman on the sixth day of the sixth month of June can help you, maybe after you get married, your body will get better?" Xiao Qixing thought for a moment, and his heart was driven by Xiao Yichen's words, and he had a look of worry. But when he thought of the last words of the national teacher, he couldn't help but persuade him.

"The Mandate of Heaven has not seen it with his own eyes, and he doesn't know if it is true or false, this maybe, the father said that the son is timid, and the son does not dare to bet." It was like the younger generations in the family playing tricks with the elders, Xiao Yichen's tone was less serious just now, and more smiling.

Seeing him like this, Xiao Qixing's heart felt a little better, and he sighed in his heart when he looked at his son's resolute look. The assassination has indeed not yet come to light, and what Chen'er said is not unreasonable. Or postpone the selection of concubines?

Or......

Could it be that Chengchen'er already has a favorite person?
