Chapter 165: The Dispute over the Establishment of Princes

The imperial concubine didn't bother to summon Yan Siyun over to admonish again, she directly asked Yu Zuo to go to the fold.

The next day, Yu Zuo handed the excerpt about the dangers of intermarriage between close relatives, including cousins, to Emperor Yuan An.

Emperor Yuan An was shocked after reading it, and after ordering the Ministry of Rites to verify, he quickly issued a ban on marriage, and from now on, cousins will no longer be allowed to intermarry.

At the same time, Zhenguo Gong, who had been delaying for a long time, finally agreed to marry his young daughter, Chen Zijin, one of the four famous ladies in Beijing, to the fourth prince Yuzhen as a side concubine.

In the return of Yuzhai, Yan Siyun looked at the scenery outside the window in a daze.

Concubine Yegreka accompanied her, and said with emotion in Huiqiang: "Why do I think that the imperial concubine is much more powerful than the former queen?" She only made one easy move, and let all your plans fail, and now you want to be a woman in the backyard of the four princes, and you can't do it! It is precisely because of pity for you that Your Majesty will no longer cling to you. ”

Yan Siyun pursed his lips and said, "If it doesn't work, it won't work!" I didn't like my cousin in the first place, but I just wanted to test and tempt to see if he knew the truth, and I wouldn't really ask His Majesty to give me a marriage to him, since the imperial concubine came up with such a good reason to stop it, then forget it! ”

Yegreka was puzzled: "If the fourth prince knows the truth, aren't you afraid that he will try to kill you?" ”

Yan Siyun smiled and said: "If he is smart enough, he can find out, everything is what His Majesty wants, I don't know that broad beans can kill people at all, otherwise I wouldn't listen to Your Majesty, Send those things to the first queen to eat!" If he wasn't smart enough, then with my scheming, I wouldn't have been afraid of his revenge at all. ”

Speaking of this, Yan Siyun's expression became more serious, and said: "But I didn't expect that my cousin didn't react at all, as if he hadn't found anything, and as if he didn't care about everything, he neither rejected me nor accepted me, but made me unable to figure out his thoughts and details." ”

"Anyway, the murderer who killed my mother has been ambushed, my cousin is innocent after all, as long as he doesn't come to trouble me, then I won't provoke him, and when I see Your Majesty next time, I will show my heart to Your Majesty, and let him give me a marriage to Yu Qi and be a princess of the Fifth Emperor, then even if my cousin knows the truth in the future, he can't trouble his brother's daughter-in-law!"

When Yegreka heard this, he was very sympathetic to the fifth prince Yu Qi and said: "Yu Qi is very sincere to you, but you have repeatedly shown favor to your cousin in front of him, and you are not afraid of breaking people's hearts!" ”

Yan Siyun smiled and said, "Yu Qi! He's really good to me, and he's really half-half-half! ”

Ye Geli was dumbfounded, Yan Siyun saw her appearance, and was even more amused, and said, "Do you think that he really has a deep love for me?" Isn't it because His Majesty dotes on me that he treats me like that? I'm not afraid of him, as long as His Majesty has always pampered me, he won't be able to escape from the palm of my hand, and it's not bad to marry a man who is easy to handle! ”

Ye Geli was stunned for a moment, let out a long sigh, and complained: "You have had a lot of ideas since you were a child, I never thought you would suffer, but you are so smart, you can't help me vent." ”

She meant that Yan Siyun had promised to help her get some yards back from Fu Xuechen, but she waited left and right, and didn't wait for Yan Siyun to help her come up with any ideas.

Yan Siyun was stunned for a moment, and laughed, she had also thought about this matter, but Fu Xuechen has a lot of advantages, and his appearance and talents are very outstanding, and his temperament is also likable.

Ye Grica also knew that Yan Siyun had no choice, when she hadn't seen a real person, she did have the intention of competing with the other party, but after she really came into contact, she knew what it meant to have a sky outside the sky and someone outside the world.

There are indeed people who are all kinds of more powerful than you, and more beautiful than you, you can't be convinced or not, no wonder Yu Zuo is all focused on the other party, from the age of twelve or thirteen to the age of sixteen, and finally seeks the other party as a wife, and now people are amphibious and flying, and then go to compete with each other, what is the point?

After turning the sky, Yan Siyun really expressed his intention to Emperor Yuan An and wanted to marry the fifth prince Yu Qi.

Although Emperor Yuan An was surprised, he also summoned Yu Qi to inquire, and after confirming that he was very willing, he officially gave Yan Siyun to him as the fifth prince's concubine.

When the news reached Yanxi Palace, the imperial concubine raised her eyebrows, she always felt that when she summoned Yan Siyun that day, the other party's various statements that she wanted to marry the fourth prince Yuzhen seemed to be playing with her, and her words and deeds were inconsistent, but Yan Siyun finally let go of Yuzhen, which still made her breathe a sigh of relief, anyway, the first queen's entrustment was considered to have completed the unimportant half.

As for the most important half, let Yu Zhen marry Fu Xuechen, it can't be completed! No one expected that Yu Zuo would intervene sideways, but the emperor still favored him, made an exception to personally propose marriage, and the holy decree gave marriage, then there was no way!

The imperial concubine still frowns deeply every day, picking and choosing among those noble girls whose status is equivalent to Fu Xuechen, Yu Zhen also has the position of a side concubine, she must choose a noble girl who is no worse than Fu Xuechen before she is willing to give up.

At the same time, she also urged the Ministry of Rites to let Qi Pavilion veteran Yu Zhen's concubine, Qi Caiwei, the daughter of the Qi family, be sent to the capital and stay in the mansion of her uncle Qi University, just waiting for the auspicious day to arrive, and the marriage can be officially completed.

In the court, many ministers are still arguing fiercely, and there are many ministers who support the establishment of Yu Zhen as the prince, but there are also many ministers who propose to give Yu Zhen the title of king first, and many others maintain a neutral attitude.

The imperial concubine knew that once the elder Qi Ge returned to Beijing, the power behind Yu Zhen would rise greatly, and the call for him to be appointed as the prince would be much higher, but the old man of the Qi Pavilion would send Qi Caiwei to Kyoto.

……

Outside the gate of Jinghua Garden, Fu Xuechen, who had completed the afternoon teaching task, walked out in the company of Furong when he was still one class away from school.

Li Zhen was outside the carriage, and when he saw her, he hurriedly smiled and bent down.

Fu Xuechen gave him a blank look, got into the carriage lightly, and left Furong on the seat outside the carriage.

The Darong Empire does not have Cheng Zhu Lixue, and it is not so important to look at men and women, widows remarry is a common phenomenon, and it is not uncommon to set up a female household, and the supervision between unmarried teenagers and girls is the strictest, but after the engagement, it will be relaxed a lot, and the rule of not seeing each other before marriage is only applicable to the three days before the official wedding.

Therefore, Fu Xuechen and Yu Zuo, who have decided on a family affair, can almost be regarded as a quasi-husband and wife, and their mode of getting along at the moment is close to dating in public between lovers in later generations, without attracting criticism.

Yu Zuo was sitting in the car, looking through the documents while waiting for Fu Xuechen, when he saw her come up, he hurriedly put away the documents and threw them aside, happily stretched out his hand and took her hand, and let her sit firmly beside him.

"Your Highness!" Fu Xuechen said angrily: "You and I have been here for a long time, you come to pick me up from school every day, and let those little girls in Jinghua Garden see how bad the impact is!" ”

"Didn't I listen to you, and I have already changed to an ordinary carriage that is not eye-catching? And I'm in the car, who knows I'm the one in the car? Li Banban also went out to greet you when he saw you come out. "Distinguish between the dots.

Fu Xuechen was speechless: "Then you don't have to come every day." ”

Yu Zuo shook his head: "I haven't seen you for a day, if it's every three autumns, I can't wait!" ”

He sighed again and said, "I still have the fourth brother and the fifth brother in front of me, according to the rules, I have to wait until they are all married before it can be my turn, which is too difficult!" ”

Fu Xuechen was a little funny, she also liked Yu Zuo, but she was not in a hurry, Yu Zuo was too anxious: "We are all still young!" I'm only sixteen, and I don't want to live in my backyard so soon! ”

Yu Zuo stretched out an arm towards her: "Then can you compensate me and comfort me a little bit of lovesickness?" ”

Fu Xuechen slapped him on the arm mercilessly: "Your Highness, have you learned badly?" Not now! ”

Yu Zuo reluctantly withdrew his arm and muttered in a low voice: "You can't hug it!" It's stingy! ”

Fu Xuechen glanced at him with disgust.

Yu Zuo had no choice but to change the topic and said, "Yan Siyun's marriage is decided today. ”

Fu Xuechen hurriedly asked, "Who did she decide?" Can't it still be your fourth brother, right? ”

Yu Zuo sighed: "No! She chose my fifth brother, this choice is very satisfactory to everyone, the fifth brother has always been interested in her, Concubine De does not object, the fourth brother will not be entangled by her after all! ”

Fu Xuechen breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I'm really afraid...... After all, the first queen died of jaundice after eating all kinds of broad bean products she sent, and if she entered your fourth brother's backyard, I didn't dare to think what would happen. ”

Yu Zuo laughed and said, "What can happen?" Whether she was intentional or unintentional, the queen died because of her, my fourth brother has no brother and sister affection for her, if she really enters my fourth brother's backyard, my fourth brother will probably be able to play her to death, she didn't choose my fourth brother, that is, she escaped, in this case, presumably my fourth brother will not do anything to her in the future for the sake of her after all, and in the face of my fifth brother! ”

Fu Xuechen stared at him blankly, he really didn't believe that the iceberg prince would have such a ruthless side.

Yu Zuo looked at her expression, and tasted a little: "Your impression of my fourth brother seems to be really good." ”

"He saved me." Fu Xuechen blinked innocently.

Yu Zuo was speechless, a little unhappy in his heart, and said: "Now he is in some trouble, my father plans to give him the title of king, but many important ministers in the court are opposed, and I am advising my father to make him the crown prince, and his quasi-father-in-law Qi Ge Lao is also rushing to the capital, and then there will definitely be a storm of the court and the prince, and my second brother is not his opponent at all." ”

Fu Xuechen was a little excited: "You mean, your fourth brother has a great hope of becoming the crown prince!" ”

Yu Zuo raised his eyebrows slightly: "My mother plans to support him, and even you want him to be the prince, what?" Am I not qualified to think about it? ”

Fu Xuechen was stunned: "But you...... Non-long-term non-......"

Yu Zuo sneered and muttered softly: "Is it difficult to be the identity of the chief?" ”

His voice was extremely soft, but Fu Xuechen heard it clearly, and suddenly fell silent, Yu Zuo's mother was already the imperial concubine, just looking at Emperor Yuan An's favored posture of Yu Zuo, it was indeed not difficult to turn him into a concubine, maybe many courtiers in the court who were currently neutral were his supporters.

But if Yu Zuo really moved his mind to compete for the heir, and Emperor Yuan An had the heart to let him inherit the country, then she, the prince and concubine, would be the queen in the future, and she had just developed a disgust for that palace, which was really ironic!

Yu Zuo was extremely concerned about her reaction, and immediately understood: "Don't you want me to be the prince? ”

Fu Xuechen nodded subconsciously, and quickly shook his head, "I don't care about this!" You can do what you think you should do, no matter what your identity is, I will be your wife. ”

She comes from the next generation, even if she knows that the battle in the palace is likely to be very cruel, but she can't have any intuitive feelings, so she doesn't plan to use her preferences to influence Yu Zuo's decision-making, she doesn't want to fall into passivity because Yu Zuo accommodates herself, who knows if the consequences of Yu Zuo's failure are serious?

Of course, it would be great if Yu Zuo could be a free prince in peace! It's a pity that the fact that Yu Zuo is deeply favored by Emperor Yuan'an has reached an extremely obvious level, and the next emperor and ministers regard him as a threat and do everything possible to deal with him. Can you still watch him passively angry?

Yu Zuo smiled at her and said, "I don't want to be a prince either, I don't want to be an emperor!" Being a prince and an emperor means that I can only live in that palace forever in this life, and I can't see the vast world outside, and only when I am a willful prince can I decide that I am the only one by my side! If you don't set up a side concubine, you don't take a concubine! ”

"Your Highness?" Fu Xuechen looked up at him in surprise, although he couldn't believe it, his eyes lit up.

Yu Zuo emphasized the "um" and said: "It's all the truth!" I kid you not! You don't have to worry about me, you don't have to worry about some things all day long, you can rest assured, I dare to say so, there will definitely be enough strength to protect yourself. ”

Fu Xuechen thought for a while: "Is there anything you need my help with?" ”

Yu Zuo smiled: "You've helped me a lot!" Your machines, your steel-making methods, gunpowder, and so on, are not given for free, and with these things, I am invincible. ”

Fu Xuechen understood that those industries were all manufacturing methods she gave first, and after Yu Zuo took them, she would build factories, expand production, and recruit people.

After the preliminary investment preparation, to this day, she doesn't know how far the industries of Yuzuo have grown, only that even if she has a small share, the monthly dividends to her are a huge amount of data.

Not to mention that Yu Zuo still has military power in his hands, and with the help of the Fu family, Fu Yuchen is secretly in charge of the power that even she doesn't know about for him, and it must contain firearms.

How powerful the power brought by the industrial dividend is, the conservative school of traditional farming civilization doesn't know it at all, no wonder Yu Zuo can be so free and confident, and after Fu Xuechen figured it out, he immediately believed him.

"It's ......" Yu Zuo said depressedly: "My mother concubine doesn't know if she is stunned, she is planning everything for my fourth brother wholeheartedly, as if she forgot that she still has my son, I can't help but suspect that my fourth brother is her own son, and I have become her adopted godson!" ”

He said in a tone of jealousy and grievance, which made Fu Xuechen laugh "poof", and then thought about it, she always wondered if Emperor Xie had some handle in the hands of the first queen, so that after the queen died, she had to contribute a lot to Yu Zhen to fulfill the queen's last wish, but what if, the queen told her that Yu Zhen was actually her son?

Thank you for the support of the monthly pass!
