After the military training in the morning was over, An Huajin followed the old King of Nanyang into the Chinese military tent to talk privately.
Although An Huajin exchanged one or two letters with the old King of Nanyang after he went to the capital, and even sent someone to send back a painting, in fact, An Huajin would not honestly explain many things in detail in the letter.
The letters are all short and can be written in one stroke.
Therefore, when the old King Nanyang saw her coming back, he naturally wanted to ask her carefully about her time in Beijing.
The first question Old Nanyang King asked was His Majesty, and An Huajin talked to Old Nanyang King in detail about the several meetings she had with His Majesty. Of course, every meeting could not avoid the topic of Gu Qingyan's engagement with her.
The old Nanyang King nodded after hearing this, without making any comments, and then asked Gu Qingyan how he got along with her.
An Huajin kept it in mind and said flatly, "It's not good."
"Huh?" Old Nanyang King frowned, "Why isn't it good? I heard that when you were in the capital, His Majesty asked him to accompany you every day, and they said that you got along very harmoniously. When you visit the Gu family,
The whole Gu family likes you very much. Now that you are here, why is it not so good?"
"If it's not good, it's not good. He has a bad temper, a bad temper, an awkward personality, loves to play with tempers, is unstable, has deep thoughts, and has many tricks." An Huajin mentioned a lot of Gu Qingyan's shortcomings.
.
The old King of Nanyang glared, "It is said that he has a gentle temperament, is polite to others, has a good temper, and never gets into trouble with others easily. He is talented and capable. Why does everything go wrong when he comes into your mouth? Stop talking nonsense."
An Huajin spread his hands, "The truth is that the Gu Qingyan I saw is just like what I said. If you don't believe it, there's nothing I can do about it."
The old prince was angry, "Then he doesn't have a good place?"
"Yes." An Huajin smiled, "He looks very good, this is not fake."
Old Nanyang King: "..."
He laughed and scolded, "You bastard, I went to Beijing with you and all you saw was that he looks very good? Nothing else?"
"No more."
The old King of Nanyang was angry, "I have corresponded with him frequently over the years. Although I have never met him, I can also read from his letters that he is no different from the rumors. He is a very good boy. You are like this
Throwing dirty water on him, is this the conscience I have taught you since you were a child?"
An Huajin: "..."
Conscience is a good thing, and she has it. But the key is that she didn't see the joy of her return to Nanyang from his grandfather's face today, which shows that he probably doesn't want her to come back at all, and the reason why he doesn't want her to come back.
, she could probably guess that it was probably because of her marriage to Gu Qingyan, and she wanted her to come back after settling the matter. As for how to solve it, she naturally agreed quickly, followed the six rituals, chose an auspicious day and an auspicious time, and then
Marry her into the Gu family.
As for the Nanyang Army, his grandfather's selfish plan is that as long as she is safe and sound, the Nanyang Army will not disperse. As for who will take over, we can just discuss it with His Majesty.
She smiled heartlessly, "Grandpa, you have to teach me about conscience since I was a child. Of course I have it. But Gu Qingyan is really not very good. If he didn't have such a face, I would
I just went to His Majesty and refused the marriage."
The old Nanyang King grimaced, "You really don't like Xiao Qi of the Gu family?"
An Huajin blinked and said without conscience, "I didn't like it."
Old Nanyang King frowned and looked at her carefully, "Don't fool me."
"No."
The old Nanyang King still didn't believe it, "If you don't like Gu Qingyan, then who can you like?"
An Huajin held his chin and changed the subject lightly, "Grandpa, do you know that Your Majesty seems to want to ruin my engagement with Gu Qingyan."
"Huh?" Old Nanyang King was stunned.
An Huajin continued to drop bombs on him, "After the case of Zhang Zaifu, His Majesty suddenly felt that he had been a little sorry for the Nanyang Palace in the past eighteen years. The Nanyang Palace turned out to be loyal, and it happened that Prince Shan ran into the palace and said to His Majesty
He wanted to compete with the Gu family for his grandson, so His Majesty suddenly realized that I didn't have to marry Gu Qingyan alone, but I could also marry my seventh cousin Chu Yan."<
/p>
"What?" Old Nanyang King couldn't sit still.
An Huajin nodded, "So, His Majesty is now thinking of ways to cancel this engagement. Then he is thinking about how to marry me to my seventh cousin smoothly."
Old Nanyang King stared at her, "You didn't fool me?"
"My good grandpa, why am I fooling you about such a big thing?" An Huajin simply lay on the desk and played with the pen holder on the desk, "It's true. If you don't believe me, wait, I'm afraid you will use it."
It didn't take long for His Majesty to come up with a solution."
Seeing that she didn't seem to be lying, Old Nanyang King's face became serious, "Why did Prince Shan come to His Majesty to join in the fun? Is he doing it for revenge?"
"No." An Huajin said with difficulty, "His grandson Chu Chen likes me."
Old Nanyang King: "..."
He was surprised, "This is the boy you beat up back then? What does he like about you? Does he like being beaten?"
An Huajin: "..."
She was funny, "...About so."
Prince Shan was speechless for a moment.
"You don't like Gu Qingyan, do you like Chu Chen or Chu Yan?" Old Nanyang King felt that these two boys, one is the grandson of Prince Shan and a son of the clan, and the other is his grandson and the legitimate son of His Majesty. In terms of status,
They are all worthy of his granddaughter, but they are both members of the royal family? Both have the surname Chu, and privately he is not happy about it.
One of his daughters married into the royal family. Although she was in the middle palace these years, her life was not happy. Among the women in the emperor's family, there are three thousand beauties in the harem. How many are happy? The most favored one is not happy at all.
Go.
"The two of them are worse than Gu Qingyan." An Huajin praised and criticized behind his back very rudely.
Old Nanyang King: "..."
He stared at An Huajin, "Then what do you mean?"
"Grandpa, besides them, do I have no one to marry?" Although An Huajin dared to say her plan to delay the engagement in front of Gu Qingyan, she also dared to delay it in front of His Majesty to cater to His Majesty's desire to cancel the engagement.
But she didn't dare to say it in front of her grandfather, who had a military stick.
If she neither wants to get married nor break off the engagement, and her grandfather knows her true thoughts, he will probably think that she is a bastard. How can she have such a bastard idea? How can she be so different? Black is black, white is white, marry
Just get married. If you don’t get married, you won’t get married. There is absolutely no such thing as a bastard who neither wants to get married nor wants to break off the engagement, dragging others with her life-long affairs, otherwise, she can’t be beaten to death.
Her grandfather was a very upright man, and he had always been upright and upright throughout his life.
"That's not the case." The old Nanyang King naturally could not understand his granddaughter's unfilial thoughts, and felt a little worried after hearing her words. "Back then, I also thought that the Gu family's Xiaoqi was a good child. Since His Majesty intended to promote it, I followed the trend and took action first.
Qiang, I have arranged this marriage for you. In the past eight years, I have exchanged letters with him several times a year. It can be seen that he has both political integrity and talent, good moral cultivation, good manners and gentleness, and is a good boy. Why?
From your mouth, do you think he is so bad?"
"Grandpa, have you made a mistake? In everyone's eyes, if you look at me, the person who is going to marry him, and I look at him differently, right? Others are not his fiancée, so naturally they can't see it but I can.
"An Huajin quibbled.
"That's right." Old Nanyang King seemed a little convinced by her crooked reasoning, "Then you want to cancel the engagement?"
"If we cancel the engagement now, wouldn't it be in line with His Majesty's wishes?" An Huajin immediately sat up straight, "I'm afraid Your Majesty will be extremely happy. If I cancel the engagement with Gu Qingyan, Your Majesty can make one for me."
Are you going to make an engagement with your seventh cousin?"
"Well." Old Nanyang King also knew that His Majesty was somewhat impatient, "That's right. So, what are you going to do?"
An Huajin thought that her grandfather had taken the bait. She pretended to be melancholy and said, "What can we do? Not only can't we cancel the engagement, we have to use this engagement as an excuse to play around with His Majesty. Otherwise, I can't stand it."
Qingyan, I don’t want to marry my seventh cousin. Grandpa, do you have any good ideas?"
No!
The old Nanyang King was helpless for a moment, "Then you can't keep putting off this important event in your life. And the Gu family, can you allow it to be delayed like this?"
An Huajin blinked, "I talked to him when I left Beijing. What he meant was that since His Majesty has now considered canceling the engagement, if we want to get married immediately, Your Majesty will not be able to pass the test. Your Majesty must
I don’t want to do it, so I think I’ll do this first.”
Old Nanyang King: "..."
He always felt that something was wrong, but An Huajin's words didn't sound flawless. There seemed to be nothing wrong with him. He rubbed his forehead and said, "You are sixteen this year. This engagement can still be postponed for another year, but you can't bear to take care of it."
Qingyan, tell me, who can you like?"
An Huajin thought for a while and said against his will, "No more."
Old Nanyang King: "..."
He remembered, "Where is that boy from the Cui family? Cui Zhuo? A few days ago, I heard that he got sick when he heard that you came to Beijing for your engagement. Hey, you are such a harmful thing.
.If you don’t like Gu Qingyan, you might as well consider Cui Zhuo.”
An Huajin: "..."
Did her grandfather give up on Gu Qingyan so easily? After so many years of correspondence, it seemed that Gu Qingyan didn't have enough goodwill with her grandfather.
