Chapter 189: The Queen's Plan
The young man came back, lowered his voice, and whispered: "Shopkeeper, the mother and daughter who just came to sell jewelry are not ordinary, they live in the royal annex closest to the palace. ”
Hearing this, the shopkeeper was stunned, he didn't think that the mother and daughter were overwhelmed, and their words were very ordinary, and they didn't have the posture of a family girl.
"Do you know who they are?"
The young man shook his head, "The inquiry is not comprehensive, it is from Zhenxiguan." As for the identity, because they have only been here for a short time, the little ones can't inquire about it. ”
When the shopkeeper heard this, he nodded, "Well, let's go down." ”
It's just an ordinary guy, and it's good to hear such news.
The shopkeeper called the thug-like man in the backyard and whispered a few words to him.
The thug called a few people and went out the back door.
Li Xiaoyue and Li Changhuan didn't know that someone was investigating them, and they were also the shopkeepers of a jewelry store.
However, to be able to open an eight-story jewelry shop in the capital, the background is definitely not simple.
In fact, as Li Xiaoyue guessed, the emperor and the empress were discussing the choice of the imperial concubine of the Nine Emperor Princes.
The Nine Emperors are not the queen's concubines, but are born to the palace maids of the harem.
The palace maid had a difficult birth, and the queen hugged her to raise her, which was the queen's adopted son.
The queen was a little distressed about the Nine Emperors, but no matter how distressed she was, the adopted son was an adopted son after all, and she didn't want the adopted son's Yue family's status to be too high and too well-connected, threatening the status of her son's second prince.
She only hopes that the Nine Emperors are not powerful, but they can assist the Second Prince and compete for the throne.
In fact, the Nine Emperors did the same.
Just because he was raised by the queen, it was impossible for the Nine Emperors to get close to the other princes.
Otherwise, it is ungrateful, a villain, and even less trustworthy.
Emperor Yan Ping said to the empress: "I wronged Qin Lao Yushi before, and her granddaughter also suffered, but she only suffered, not humiliated, and she was still an innocent woman." ”
Qin Yuyao lived in the Li family in Zhenxiguan for half a year, and her personality was resolute, and she was not comparable to ordinary women. looks good, and matches Lao Jiu. ”
The queen was stunned for a moment, and then smiled, "Your Majesty, why did you think of arranging a marriage with Lao Jiu?" ”
Emperor Yan Ping smiled, "When I went to Heifeng's side, I happened to see Qin Yuyao." That girl is good, Lao Jiu dances with knives and guns all day long, and she is a rough man,"
"His fiefdom was in Sile House, which was more desolate than the town of Xiguan. If it were an ordinary woman, I guess I wouldn't want to go to that kind of place. Qin Yuyao has experienced upheaval and displacement, she can go anywhere. ”
When the queen heard this, she thought of Qin Yuyao's identity, she only had an elderly grandfather, and her grandfather was also a royal historian and a minister, and he had always been a maverick in the court, and he did not form a gang.
Isn't that the best candidate?
In fact, the queen noticed Qin Yuyao before and wanted to include Qin Yuyao in the selection range.
However, because His Majesty attaches too much importance to Qin Lao's imperial history, the queen does not dare to arrange a marriage for Qin Yuyao at will.
"Your Majesty is wise." The queen responded, "Then give Lao Jiu a marriage to Qin Yuyao." ”
Emperor Yan Ping nodded, "Hmm! Queen, you prepare. ”
The next day, the queen first called her own son, the second prince, "Queen Mother, what do you call me?" ”
The queen looked at her son, thinking that her son had actually hidden it from him before, contacted the national teacher, and also participated in making His Majesty take more pills.
Although the son said that he hoped that his father would live a long life, and he did not know that the pill was poisonous, it was not good for His Majesty's health, which was a fact.
The queen was particularly worried that her son would do something foolish again, and he would ruin his good future.
"Son, you must be at peace. Your father can reign for so long, and he can still control the court in the palm of his hand, it really doesn't just rely on words. ”
The queen and Emperor Yan Ping are married and have lived together since they were young.
Usually, in addition to those women who manage the harem, they are Emperor Yan Ping.
Every time she saw her son's covetousness for the throne and contempt for her elderly father, the queen was particularly nervous.
The second prince responded on the surface, and said with a smile: "What the queen mother said is that the son remembers." ”
"You must remember not only with your mouth, but also with your heart." The queen said in a deep voice: "Li Heifeng, who has often entered the palace recently and talked to your father?" Why don't you visit? ”
The second prince yawned and disagreed, "Isn't it just the folks from my father's hometown?" As for your mobilization? ”
When the queen heard this, she panicked.
Although she has only met once, and her relationship with Li Heifeng is not close, there are not many people who can make His Majesty continue to be intimate after such a long time.
What's more, the two grew up together since childhood, and His Majesty's nurse is still Li Heifeng's aunt.
"That's different." The queen said in a deep voice, "You go back and prepare a generous gift to send over." ”
"Yes, Queen Mother." The second prince responded, "In addition to this, do you have any explanations?" ”
Recently, the eldest and third have been jumping so hard that he has to be on guard.
The queen thought for a while, and then said, "Your father has already set a marriage for Lao Jiu." ”
"Which girl?" The second prince asked, if it is a big family, he still has to beware of Lao Jiu.
The queen replied: "The girl of the Qin family, Qin Yuyao." ”
"Old Qin Yushi?" The second prince was stunned for a moment, and then smiled.
"Yes, Qin Yuyao is good, she is a good girl." The queen also smiled, "Lao Jiu will continue to be your supporter in the future." Even if you go to the back cover, it won't change. ”
The second prince smiled, "Queen Mother, my father still loves me." found such a wife for Lao Jiu. Just a Qin old imperial history, it doesn't help much. ”
The queen thought for a while and reminded, "Son, don't underestimate the imperial history of Qin Lao. That's an existence that no one is afraid of except your father. With such a wife, at least Lao Jiu will not be played at every turn in the fiefdom. ”
The second prince nodded, "That's right, when Lao Jiu arrives in the fiefdom, he can also be quiet." ”
"Qin Lao Yushi has offended most of the people in the court, so your father can't have that kind of mind for Lao Jiu, so you have to be more affectionate to Lao Jiu."
"Whether it is Lao Jiu's marriage, or Lao Jiu's fiefdom, you do your best. After all, Lao Jiu also grew up with you, and he is close to you. It's really a critical moment, Lao Jiu can still help you. ”
The second prince nodded, "Well, I know, Queen Mother." ”
It was only after her son left that the empress asked the Nine Emperors to inform him.
When the Nine Emperors heard that their adoptive mother, the Empress, had called him, they hurried back to the palace.
Although this is His Majesty's intention to be able to marry directly, the queen has always done everything and does not leave a handle.
Regardless of whether the Nine Emperor Princes were satisfied with this marriage, the queen did not want to complain.
Even if the Nine Emperor Princes complained, they would only complain about His Majesty, not her adoptive mother.
"Greetings to the Queen Mother." The Nine Emperors are tall and usually practice dancing, and although their skin is not dark, they are also wheat-colored and bronze.
The queen looked at the Nine Emperor Princes and smiled even kinder, "Old Nine, hurry up." What are you busy with these days? ”
