Chapter 24: The Chen Family's Speculation

"Wan Aiqing, is there anything else going on?"

"Back to Your Majesty, Weichen has nothing to do."

"Then stand down, I'm tired."

"Yes."

Wan Youqing whispered a few words to Feng Dabao and slowly retreated.

When he exited the Qianqing Palace, Wan Youqing glanced at the dormitory behind him with deep meaning.

Your Majesty doesn't seem to have a good kidney.

In the end, he is still an ordinary person, and he has not cultivated martial arts.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

The royal family in the world is really pitiful, like a canary in a cage.

Indulgence can enjoy countless glory and wealth, but the soul is trapped in a small flesh shell, and in just a few decades, it will turn into a loess.

In the previous Great Zhou Dynasty, there was even an anecdote of a prime minister assisting the emperors of the Ten Dynasties.

At that time, Zhou Tianzi's rights were almost all hollowed out, and he was completely reduced to a 'broiler' that produced wish stones.

Any imperial technique, in the face of time and years, is quite pale.

For more than 200 years, the imperial power has been in decline.

It's time to think more about yourself.

The next day, Chen's study.

Chen Cheng'an, the eldest young master of the Chen Mansion, walked into the study, picked up a chair casually and sat down, and said, "Dad, what does Emperor Lao'er mean by this?" gave the eldest sister a pass token and allowed her to spend the night, is this to let her drown on the side of the fifth prince every day? Although my sister practices martial arts, she is still waiting to be in the boudoir, what kind of system is this? ”

Chen Mou, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, glared at him and said: "What emperor Lao'er, no big or small, that is my majesty of Great Wei." ”

"Oh! It's pretty much the same anyway. Chen Chengan didn't care, and said nervously: "Dad, you said that the emperor is ...... Do you think it is possible that Your Majesty wants my sister to marry the fifth prince? ”

Hearing this, Chen Mou was also a little puzzled, and said ambiguously: "I don't rule out this possibility." ”

"That's not good, the fifth prince has neither the support of his mother nor the talent. If you peel off the prince's skin, it's nothing. How can such a person be worthy of my talented eldest sister. ”

Chen Cheng'an added fuel and vinegar and said: "Besides, if you marry into the royal family, my sister's cultivation will be wasted." ”

After listening to Chen Chengan's description, Chen Mou also frowned and became a Sichuan character.

When he imagined that the daughter he had worked so hard to raise would marry in the future, his heart seemed to be grabbed by someone and stopped beating.

However, Chen Mou also knew his son's usual urine, so he glanced at it and said, "What do you want to say?" ”

"I knew I couldn't hide it from my dad."

"If you have something to say, talk about it, and if you have a fart, let it go!"

Chen Chengan smiled and said in a slightly flattering tone: "I have a dead friend, a natural talent for martial arts, and now at the age of fifteen, he is already a cultivator of the nine grades of the opening pulse, which can be called extremely talented, and his family is also amazing, it is simply rich and rivals the country." I think he and my sister are a perfect match, dad or I will bring him to the house in a few days, meet with my sister, you are next to me? ”

"You're talking about the third son of the Li family, right?" Chen Mou took a sip of the teacup.

"Yes, yes, that's him."

"Your sister won't agree."

"Why?"

"She's already behind you, and she hates you to the core."

"Huh?"

As soon as Chen Chengan turned around, he saw that Chen Xuerong, who came in at some point, had already turned into a copper bell.

Suddenly, she swept and kicked Chen Chengan's body.

Chen Chengan screamed, and flew out of the study with a chair, and the sandalwood chair under him suddenly fell apart.

"Sister, what are you doing!"

"You yourself fancy other people's money, so you want to marry your sister, you are really wishful thinking." Chen Xuerong said with a smile: "In addition, let me tell you again, I would rather marry the Fifth Highness than marry you, the third son of the Li family." ”

"Why?"

"His Royal Highness is handsome and has a good figure, and the third son of the Li family must have landed on his face first when he was born, and he is so ugly that he is ingenious, and the two are judged."

"But the family is already a cultivator of the Nine Grades of Open Pulse, but he is a martial arts genius."

"I pick your brother-in-law, I definitely don't look at his cultivation talent, and he won't be higher than your sister anyway."

Chen Chengan was speechless for a while.

"Alright, don't make a fuss." Chen Mou stood up appropriately, and he diverted the topic and said, "Rong'er, what considerations did you say Your Majesty did this?" ”

Chen Xuerong's frivolous expression was retracted, and she said seriously: "Actually, it's not as complicated as we thought. Recently, there have been frequent incidents of Korean assassins in the palace, don't you know very well Dad? ”

After being reminded by his daughter, Chen Mou immediately thought of a layer: "Are you saying that Your Majesty wants you to protect the five princes, but it is difficult to explain it specifically, so you want to come up with such a compromise method?" ”

"It should be eight or nine. The five princes are alone, not only does they have no support from the court, but even their mother's power is wiped out, which has become a historical thing. ”

"But he has the identity of a prince, and the strength of the guards in the palace is uneven, if he is exploited by the enemy country and has a mistake, then it will also lose the face of Dawei, which is easy to attract other negative effects. At this time, the situation is tense, and there is no room for such mistakes. ”

Chen Mou nodded and said, "What you said makes a lot of sense. appeared beside the five princes in the name of teaching martial arts. In this way, it can not only protect the five princes, but also block the mouths of other princes. ”

"I feel that there is a deeper intention, but I can't guess it for the time being." Chen Xuerong said thoughtfully.

Chen Mou suddenly said worriedly: "Deeper, it won't be to let you fall in love for a long time, and really let you marry a Fifth Highness, right?" ”

The thought that his daughter was going to marry that prince made his heart hurt even more.

"I don't know."

Hearing Chen Xuerong's answer, Chen Mou's heart was even more shocked.

Outside the door, Chen Chengan was holding a sandalwood board and rubbing his buttocks as he walked: "What are you all talking about, eldest sister, do you really want to marry a fifth prince?" ”

"Get out!"

A few days later.

Qingfeng Pavilion, backyard.

Zhao Hongming and Chen Xuerong stood facing each other, each holding a long wooden knife.

During this time, under the arrangement of Emperor Jian'an, Chen Xuerong would come over almost tomorrow, and sometimes even stayed with Zhao Hongming for the night.

For a while, he was a little uncomfortable.

"Your Royal Highness, martial arts are good at diligence and ridiculous, and you need to practice from time to time. Now that His Highness has been practicing Heaven and Earth for more than a month, he should have been able to preliminarily master it, and the rest is to practice and strengthen it from time to time. ”

Chen Xuerong, who was standing in front of Zhao Hongming, said seriously.

"When you practice in the next sparring, Your Highness can do your best, and you don't need to keep your hands."

Hearing this, Zhao Hongming couldn't help but sigh.

If he doesn't keep his hand, you're afraid you won't be able to catch it.
