Chapter 278 Selection
Xiahou Shuang was dumbfounded, only caring about being happy and forgetting these things, Mingyue said solemnly: "My sister should also hurry up, and giving birth to an heir is the right thing." ”
Xiahou Shuang also knew the importance of this matter, but she had just gotten married, how could she be so fast, the two joked with each other about the time.
After finishing the meal in Yanhe Hall, Xiahou Shuang and Xiao Xinrong walked in the Fuzhong Garden, Xiahou Shuang quietly informed Xiao Xinrong that Mingyue was pregnant, Xiao Xinrong asked with dark eyes: "Shuang'er is envious?"
Xiahou Shuang nodded: "I didn't expect my sister-in-law to be pregnant so soon, and next year there will be a little life in the house, and there will be more lively people, and my grandmother will be happy." ”
"Frost likes children?"
"Like. Xiahou Shuang replied without thinking.
"It seems that I still have to work hard for my husband. Xiao Xinrong said meaningfully.
This is Xiahou Shuang who understands, this person is really thick-skinned, fortunately, the maid guard saw that the two of them were whispering and followed from a distance, Xiahou Shuang glanced at Xiao Xinrong and walked two steps quickly, leaving him behind.
This is angry, Xiao Xinrong laughed dumbly in his heart, such a Xiahou Shuang is no longer indifferent to the past, which makes people feel that he is a flesh-and-blood person, which makes Xiao Xinrong even more tempted.
Xiao Xinrong walked a few steps quickly to catch up with her, and held Xiahou Shuang's hand tightly, Xiahou Shuang shook it a few times and didn't shake it off, so she had to let him catch it.
The two stayed in the mansion until the evening before leaving for home, and when they went back, Xiahou Shuang was reluctant, and Xiao Xinrong promised to go back to the house several times a month before giving up.
Time is passing, and Zhang Yanyu and Wang Shuwan got married one after another.
Seeing that the ladies of the same age were all married, the Wang family was anxious about Xiahou Jing's marriage, and found two official media in a row.
The concubine in the palace also begged the queen to come to the queen's side, hoping that the queen could find a princess with both ability and integrity for Xiao Xinming.
The age of the third prince is not young, but in the past, Xiao Xinrong had not yet married, how could Concubine Duan, who respected the queen, let Xiao Xinming rush in front of Xiao Xinrong, this was dragging on, and now that Xiao Xinrong has become married, Concubine Duan came cheekily to beg Queen Chen.
Empress Chen nodded when she heard this: "Ming'er is indeed the time to start a family, but I wonder if he has a favorite girl?"
When Concubine Duan heard this, a slight smile appeared on her face: "Ming'er is the most important etiquette, even if she talks to a young lady more on weekdays, she feels embarrassed, where does she like it, this matter requires Niang Niang to make decisions for him." ”
"This is also easy to do, this matter is made by the emperor of this palace, let the portraits of young ladies of the same age be brought, so that your mother and son can also choose together. ”
Concubine Duan saw that Empress Chen agreed, so she withdrew from the palace.
When Xiao Xinming came to look for Concubine Duan, he saw Concubine Duan with a hint of calculation in her eyes, Xiao Xinming was worried when she saw such a concubine, everyone praised Concubine Duan for being calm and peaceful on weekdays, and she didn't see anyone in the palace arguing, and she respected Queen Chen even more, who would have thought that there was another face behind such a concubine.
"I have asked for your marriage to the queen, the queen has agreed, no matter who the queen will marry you, my son will definitely not refuse, but with the mother's understanding of the queen, she is the most face-saving person, and she will definitely not do anything out of the ordinary, this thing will definitely be done perfectly, otherwise where can she show the fairness of her middle palace mother." Where did Concubine Duan still look respectful in front of Queen Chen, and said with a hint of mockery on the corner of her lips.
Xiao Xinming wanted to open his mouth to refuse, but before he could speak, a sudden cough swallowed his words.
"Come on, call the imperial doctor!" Concubine Duan looked panicked.
"Mother, don't panic, I'll just rest for a while. Xiao Xinming stopped the palace maid who went to call someone, sat down on the soft couch, took out a pill and water from her arms and took it, and the cough was much better.
"It's all that slut, if it weren't for her, how could my son be like this! I hate to cut her with a thousand knives, but it's a pity that my mother is incompetent, and she has to grovel by her side every day, which makes my son suffer. When Concubine Duan mentioned the past, her face was distorted, and her eyes shot a vicious light.
"Don't say it, mother, be careful that the wall has ears!" Xiao Xinming cautiously reminded.
"You're right, the mother doesn't mention it, you can rest assured, your marriage will definitely be arranged for you, you are the only child of the mother, and the mother only hopes for you. Concubine Duan's eyes filled with tears, and she felt sad when she looked at the thin Xiahou Ming.
Xiahou Ming couldn't bear to see her feel heartache and blame herself, so she had to nod.
After Empress Chen gave Emperor Xuanhua the meaning of Concubine Duan, she asked, "I don't know if Your Majesty has a candidate in mind?"
Emperor Xuanhua threw the fold in his hand on the table, slowly walked to Empress Chen's side and said: "You have to do this matter, I can rest assured, as for the candidate, I also have to see what Ming'er means, after all, it is a matter of a lifetime, and you must not marry a person who you don't like in your heart." ”
After finishing speaking, he said: "Ming'er is weak, I want to marry a woman with a hearty and lively personality for him, so that he can open his depression and open his mind, maybe it will be better for his condition." ”
Empress Chen smiled dumbly after hearing this: "I don't know and think that Your Majesty is choosing a female imperial doctor for the third prince to come back." ”
As soon as the words came out, Emperor Xuanhua laughed, and the matter was decided.
Empress Chen's movements are also fast, and on the second day, she asked people to send portraits of young ladies of the same age, and after taking a closer look, Empress Chen selected a few outstanding concubines to take a look at them.
Concubine Duan couldn't help nodding after reading it: "It's still a good vision, and the concubines look at these people well, but I don't know what the character of each girl is." ”
"This palace intends to order that these young ladies will be invited to the palace to enjoy the flowers, and then you will also take a look, and by the way, let Ming'er also come out to have a look, and choose a person who is in your heart. ”
For the sake of her son, Concubine Duan had no reason to disagree, and immediately agreed, and Queen Chen directly issued an order to let these young ladies come to Jingyang Palace to enjoy the flowers in three days.
Among the several young ladies who received the post was Tong Yingxuan, Tong Yingxuan was surprised, but she didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly dressed up and cleaned up.
Three days later, Xiahou Shuang came to the palace as promised, and first went to Jingyang Palace to meet the queen, and saw that the people under the seat were not only the concubines in the harem, but also the crown princess.
Xiahou Shuang and this princess have a deep grudge, the princess has made many moves for her niece Tang Xiaoxiao to make Xiahou Shuang, but Xiahou Shuang escaped, and now Tang Xiaoxiao has also passed away.
Although Tang Xiaoxiao's departure was not the reason for Xiahou Shuang, if Xiahou Shuang hadn't made a plan to make Tang Xiaoxiao lose her appearance at the beginning, she would not have married someone like Han Wu.
Thinking of this, the crown princess looked at Xiahou Shuang's eyes as if she was going to eat people, but it was a pity that the crown princess was scolded by the prince several times, and it was strictly forbidden for the crown princess to look for Xiahou Shuang's bad luck, and the crown princess could only stare twice and did not dare to make any other moves.
