Chapter 216: Temptation and Planning
Su Yang's mood in the past two days has plummeted, and the queen will come to him from time to time, every time she talks about the selection of the crown princess, and she also takes a lot of portraits and asks him to choose the girl he likes.
repeatedly refused, but also provoked the queen's dislike, in order to be able to find Doctor Mo safely, Su Yang was helpless, and did not want to cause trouble here.
Fortunately, those brothers in Lin Dao are here, they are loyal to Su Yang, and with their help, even if Su Yang does not leave the Prince's Mansion, he will not delay the pace of finding Doctor Mo.
Lin Dao didn't know Su Yang's true intentions, but they just understood that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was not in good health, and the Tai Hospital was full of quacks, so they naturally tried their best to find out where Doctor Mo lived.
At the same time, they were also puzzled, why didn't His Royal Highness the Crown Prince go directly to ask His Majesty?
And the answer given by Su Yang was just that Emperor Zhou was working hard for state affairs, so it was really not appropriate to disturb.
The prince shared his worries for His Majesty, and Lin Dao and others were full of admiration.
Su Yang really didn't have the heart to pay attention to the thoughts of Lin Dao and the others, looking at the queen sitting opposite, especially the more than a dozen portraits of women on the table, which could be described as extremely depressed.
"Emperor, let's take a look at the woman in this painting first, are you satisfied?"
For the selection of the crown princess, it is obvious that the queen is extremely concerned, this is by no means a trivial matter, although this must satisfy the crown prince, but sometimes, it is not what the prince says.
Su Yang just flipped through the portraits casually, and the women in the painting were indeed bright and moving, and they should be beautiful for everyone. While he was flipping through it, the queen introduced him to him, basically they were all daughters of princes and ministers, and they were all prominent.
"This is Wei Taishi's granddaughter, Wei Yuxin, known as the first talented woman of the Great Zhou, but she is the most compatible with the emperor. If it weren't for the fact that the emperor didn't like fame, the title of the first genius of the Great Zhou would belong to the emperor. ”
Su Yang looked at the portrait in his hand and heard what the queen said, but his heart moved.
Although he knew what he thought, he was a little sorry for Wei Yuxin, but in order to solve the trouble in front of him, it seemed that he could only do this.
After all, compared to the other women in the portrait, Su Yang still knows a little about Wei Yuxin.
"Queen Mother, although Miss Wei is a woman, she is far superior to ordinary men in terms of talent and knowledge, which is really rare. After careful consideration, Su Yang said.
The queen was slightly stunned, hearing Su Yang's praise, how could she not understand what her son meant, and suddenly smiled: "Okay, good, this palace is also very optimistic about the girl with a heart of words, this time the selection of the crown princess, this palace probably knows what to do." ”
"It's all up to the queen mother. Su Yang nodded.
He is in poor health, and the selection of the crown princess naturally does not have to worry about it, and all the things are handled by the queen.
Sending the queen away, Su Yang stood in the courtyard, but his thoughts were melodious.
Although this move is a helpless strategy, Su Yang actually has his own selfishness.
Recalling what happened at the temple fair, especially thinking of Wei Yuxin's pretty face, Su Yang always subconsciously associated it with Princess Jiaoyue.
It's not that the two girls have similar appearances, but they have similar temperaments, as if they have the same gestures.
What's more, Su Yang always felt a little strange about Taishi Wei, although there was only one side, it always made him feel a little uneasy.
He didn't dare to guarantee whether Wei Taishi would have anything to do with the new death of the crown prince, but it was always necessary to test it.
......
In the Taishi's mansion, Wei Taishi was walking back and forth in the study, and a middle-aged man who looked like a housekeeper next to him sighed at this moment and said, "My lord, there has been an edict in the palace, and Yuxin has been selected as one of the candidates for the crown princess, I'm afraid we can't say no." ”
Wei Taishi paused, then his eyes were as light as water, he sat down and said, "Since you can't refuse, then you can only agree." ”
"But ......"
"Prince New ......" Wei Taishi frowned, not knowing what he was thinking in his heart.
"Grandpa!" came a shout from outside the door, and Wei Jingcheng strode in.
The housekeeper immediately bowed, no matter what, this is also his own little master, and he must not lose his courtesy.
"Bastard, who let you in?" Wei Taishi was slightly displeased, his study was strictly forbidden for others to enter and exit, unless he had his permission, even his own grandson.
Wei Jingcheng was obviously very afraid of his grandfather, so he didn't dare to say anything.
Seeing Wei Jingcheng's cowardice, Wei Taishi was even more angry, if it weren't for the fact that his son had passed away, this Wei Jingcheng was the only incense of his Wei family, otherwise he would have abolished it early.
If you can't write anything, you can't do martial arts, eat, drink and have fun all day long, what is not waste?
If he was born in someone else's family, Wei Taishi would not hate iron and steel, and it was a big deal to let him be a gentleman who ate mixed rice.
But the dignified and powerful Wei Taishi has such an unsuccessful grandson, how can he not be annoyed.
Fortunately, his granddaughter earned him a lot of face, but after all, it was only his daughter's family and he couldn't inherit the family business.
Although Wei Jingcheng is under the influence of Wei Yuxin, he also has some talent, but there are only a few, ordinary talents will not be taken seriously, but a slightly famous talent, compared with Wei Jingcheng, can trample him under his feet.
So even outside, Wei Taishi was reluctant to mention this grandson, because he felt ashamed.
In fact, Wei Jingcheng is not so bad, he is still different from ordinary gentlemen, after all, he is a literate gentleman.
Isn't there a saying that says?
I'm not afraid that hooligans will fight, I'm afraid that they will fight, and there is culture.
"Grandpa, is my sister really going to become the crown princess?" Wei Jingcheng shrunk his neck and asked curiously.
Wei Taishi smiled coldly: "Yes, you must become the crown princess." ”
I just took this opportunity to test the prince Xin, whether he really had amnesia or was he disguised.
The daughter's house is like water spilled out, Wei Taishi doesn't care, even if he uses his granddaughter as a chess piece, as long as the result is satisfactory to him, it is not unnecessary.
He had a plan in his heart, and the housekeeper seemed to have a good idea, and he quickly saw the deep meaning from Wei Taishi's tone and expression.
This is the era of male superiority and inferiority of women, no matter how famous Wei Yuxin is, and then gives Wei Taishi a long face, at a critical moment, he can be discarded at will, and he is not as good as Wei Jingcheng, who is disliked by Wei Taishi.
Sometimes people's fate really can't be controlled by themselves, especially in the emperor's family, or those princes and ministers.
Wei Yuxin sat alone in the pavilion, his face was full of melancholy, such a big thing as the selection of the crown princess naturally spread throughout the imperial capital early.
And as one of the candidates, she was even more informed by people in the palace early.
The sudden news made Dewei Yu feel upset, she is not very familiar with the prince, although she is also a great talent, but it is said that her health is very bad, and she may die at any time.
More precisely, he was indeed dead, but alive again.
Wei Yuxin didn't dare to resist, she just sighed that her life was too bitter.
