Princess Changling walked into the palace and smiled at the Empress Dowager who was closing her eyes to meditate: "I saw that Zhi Fei's face didn't look good when he went out. Is the Empress giving him a lesson?"
The Empress Dowager opened her eyes, looked at her daughter and granddaughter and said with a smile: "That's not all. Tell me...why is it so difficult to get Zhifei married? Is it like forcing him to drink poison?"
She even felt that if she put a bottle of poison and a girl in front of him and asked him to choose one, he would choose the poison without hesitation.
Princess Changling walked to the bed and sat down, saying: "It's not difficult to understand that Zhifei doesn't want to get married after seeing his fourth uncle and fourth aunt behave like this since he was a child. Don't be anxious, queen."
The Empress Dowager said: "I'm afraid that if I don't force him now, no one will be able to control him when I leave, and I'm afraid he will be alone for the rest of his life."
Xie Yan's biological mother was unrelated to the Empress Dowager's natal family. The Empress Dowager had seen this child not long after he was born. At that time, her own two children had just learned how to run, so she thought the child was very long.
She must be very beautiful when she is older.
When Xie Yan was brought into the palace to be raised at the age of eight, he was always taken care of by the Empress Dowager.
The Empress Dowager injured her body when she was young, and after giving birth to a daughter, she could no longer reproduce. She really took care of Xie Yan as her third child. Even because the late emperor was the eldest son, he was destined to bear a lot of responsibilities in the future and could not be overly spoiled.
, she devoted all her maternal love to Xie Yan and Princess Changling. These two children were actually more favored than the late emperor.
The late emperor was several years older than Xie Yan. Although he occasionally complained that his mother doted on his younger brother, he was not really jealous. On the contrary, he had always had a good relationship with Xie Yan, who ate and lived with him and was a competent elder brother.
If everything goes well, Xie Yan should become a new generation of famous generals in Dasheng and the late emperor's right-hand man.
However, the late emperor suddenly passed away, and all the important responsibilities suddenly fell on Xie Yan, who was only twenty-four years old at the time. Five or six years passed, and the burden on Xie Yan these years was really too heavy.
But apart from him, no one in the royal family can support this great success.
"By the way, what happened to the girl from the Luo family you just talked about? Tell me." It's not that the Empress Dowager likes to hear the wind and rain pull the red line, but that Changling has never seen other girls and Zhizhi in these years.
They are not mentioned together.
Princess Changling advised: "Mother, please rest first. I will talk to you after you have rested."
The Empress Dowager said: "I have nothing but sleep all day long. Where can I sleep now?"
Princess Changling had no choice but to say: "Okay, actually there is nothing to say. When the princess's house held a banquet, Zhifei and Miss Luo met. Although it was only for a moment, I don't think the two of them wanted to meet for the first time.
See you. And today, I saw that the little girl looked as usual, not like she was afraid of what was wrong. Yesterday, she went to the Zhenguo Army camp with the second son of the Luo family to play all afternoon, and she also played with Gao Yu.
He Ruo Yasu had a fight, and I heard that Princess He Ruo Ya’s wrist seemed to be broken.”
Qin Ning's eyes widened when she heard this. She didn't know this!
The Queen Mother's eyes lit up, "Is this girl good at martial arts?"
Princess Changling smiled and said, "On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, we had a fight with the Gaoyu people, which saved a lot of face for our Dasheng. I heard Mrs. Lingchuan say yesterday that many generals praised the Luo family as being the father of the tiger.
Where is the dogless girl? Yesterday, Princess Gaoyu was angry at her defeat to Miss Luo, so she jumped out to take action again, so I can’t blame Miss Luo."
"Of course it's no wonder." The Empress Dowager was obviously very happy, "Luo Yun was a newborn calf who was not afraid of tigers. He dared to lead a dozen people to chase the enemy for dozens of miles before he was twenty. This girl looked like a
Okay. Nowadays, all the young girls in Shangyong are fragile and ugly. Fortunately, there is peace now. If they were so fragile back then, how could they survive? "
Princess Changling was helpless and thought to herself: "Even in troubled times, these girls from powerful and famous families have a much better life than ordinary people."
"Bring that girl back to the palace and show me?" said the Empress Dowager.
Soon he became worried again, "I think that girl is still very young, has she got haircut yet? If she is not old enough..."
Of course, you can get engaged first if you don't have a haircut, but usually it's for people who are of the same age or not much different.
If a boy of seventeen or eighteen years old came to ask for marriage, even if the Luo family was not happy, they would politely refuse at most. But if Xie Yan came to ask for marriage at this age, he would most likely be beaten out.
The Empress Dowager was in a dilemma, should she choose someone with a lower family status? The girl looked so young, she was afraid that she would have to take care of her.
Princess Changling said with a smile: "I was already a hairdresser last year, and I will be seventeen in the spring of next year. I heard that General Luo came back this time with the intention of marrying his three children. But the eldest daughter of the Luo family is about to leave the cabinet recently, so this
The matter has been settled first. Although the Luo family has not said anything, I am afraid that many people in Shangyong City are planning to marry the Luo family."
The Empress Dowager said: "Then you go to the Luo family more often and talk to Mrs. Luo. The one in Prince Mu's house can't be counted on, and I'm old and useless. As a sister, you should worry more about him, too.
It’s not in vain that Zhifei has taken care of you all these years.”
Princess Changling smiled and said: "Okay, don't worry, I will invite Mrs. Luo for tea later."
The Empress Dowager nodded with satisfaction, but did not forget to remind: "That's good, but don't be too explicit. Zhi Fei has a bad temper. If he doesn't like it, it will embarrass the girl. Let's look at other families as well.
I remember...are the girls from Taifu Su’s family pretty good too?"
Princess Changling said: "The Su family girl has been engaged for a long time."
The Empress Dowager felt a little regretful, "I just said that if it is not good to put it off like this, it is better to settle down as soon as possible. Good girls have been married off by others, and the further back they go, the harder it is to find them."
Princess Changling said yes with a smile.
With Xie Yan's status and character, it will not be difficult to get a wife even in twenty years' time, let alone now.
It’s just that the Empress Dowager may not like it.
A family that is a good match for the Regent's Palace will definitely not be willing to marry their noble eldest daughter to a fifty-year-old man, even if he is the current Regent.
A slightly lower family background or a concubine from a high family is fine. The reputation of a high family is greater than the sky.
Qin Ning stood aside with her eyes wide open. Now she finally came to her senses, "Wait! Aunt, grandma, what are you talking about? Are you talking about marrying Yaoyao to Uncle King Chu?!"
Princess Changling looked at her dumbfounded daughter and smiled: "By the way, aren't our A Ning and Miss Luo Er's classmates in the martial arts academy? Today we are going to play with Miss Luo."
Qin Ning felt so heartbroken that she didn't want to call her good friend aunt.
"That... Yao Yao and Uncle King Chu are not suitable," Qin Ning said.
Princess Changling raised her eyebrows and said, "What's inappropriate?"
Qin Ning rolled her eyes and said: "It's just... it's not suitable. The two of them are so different! And... their personalities are not suitable. Shake is lively and cheerful, wouldn't it be boring to be with your uncle?"
The point is, if she really becomes my aunt, how dare I go to the Prince Regent's Palace to play with her.
Ah, no! She didn't mean to say that!
"Um...Auntie, you forgot, shake it before..." Qin Ning stopped before she finished her words and winked at Princess Changling from an angle that the Empress Dowager could not see.
Everyone in the capital knew about Luo Junyao's pursuit of Xie Chengyou in the past two years, and she didn't believe that her mother didn't know about it.
Although Yao Yao has changed his mind now, if she really marries into the Regent's Palace...
How embarrassing.
Princess Changling was also startled and couldn't help but raise her hand and press her eyebrows.
There have been so many worries lately that I almost forgot about this one.
"Why are you two flirting with each other in front of me?" the Empress Dowager asked in confusion.
Princess Changling turned around and smiled at her: "It's nothing. Isn't Miss Luo Er's classmate A Ning? She feels awkward. Mother, I can't rush this matter for a while. I will send all the suitable noble girls in the capital to you later."
Check it out and see if there are any suitable ones before telling you. Let’s take a look first and then ask Zhifei for his opinion. Otherwise, if we talk passionately here, if he doesn’t do it later, can you still escort him to worship?”
The Empress Dowager also knew this. Although she spoke forcefully in front of Xie Yan, how could she really be willing to force him to marry a princess she was dissatisfied with?
"Okay, it's time to check carefully. You have to be careful. If you are like Yao, don't choose Zhifei."
Princess Changling nodded in agreement. The Yao family mentioned by the Empress Dowager was Xie Yan's biological mother, who is now Princess Mu.
Thirty years ago and now Bai Jingrong, the wife of the Qi people, were both called the twins of Dongling - Yao Yun.
A stunning beauty who can make most people who know her hate her.
