Yan Zheng nodded slowly, "Actually, when Huixin was still alive, she liked Qingninghou's daughter very much. Qingninghou married his wife five years ago and has not renewed their relationship in these years. It was her daughter who married her.
The general affairs in the inner courtyard of Lihou Mansion are also in good order."
That’s really an outstanding management talent!
"What's the child's name and how does he look like?" Yue Wangshu asked quickly.
"My name is Meng Shu, but my appearance is not Shu-like." Yan Zheng didn't think there was anything wrong with this. "If you want a wife to be virtuous, Meng Shu has an upright appearance, which is enough."
Yue Wangshu: Tell me... The second prince is at the age where he is lustful and admires Shaoai. Is he willing to marry a virtuous but not stunning woman?
"The Emperor needs to talk to the Meng family about this matter, and at least ask the second prince what he wants. When it comes to marriage between a man and a woman, it's best if you and I agree." - Damn, don't mess with the rules!
Although Yan Zheng disagreed with this, he did not reject it outright. He thought for a moment and said: "Since Wang Shu has said so, why not summon the little Meng family to the palace and take care of it yourself."
Yue Wangshu's eyes widened. How could she be responsible for such a thing? But then he thought about it, it was not under the banner of choosing the prince's concubine, so he would also call Chen Shuyuan when the time came. His son was going to get a wife.
, you have to let her see it.
As for Meng Yuanqing and Yue Wangshu, as concubines, of course they couldn't see their foreign husbands, and they couldn't even touch them. However, they had to ask Chang Yu to meet him before they could make a decision.
"By the way, that Meng Yuanqing, if Liu Lang thinks it's okay, he might as well arrange for Wai Yu to meet him." Yue Wangshu was still more concerned about Wai Yu's marriage. After all, the second prince is a boy, and he will have a wife in the future. Why?
They are all taking advantage.
Yan Zheng's old face sank, obviously unhappy.
Yue Wangshu sighed: "The Meng family is not considered an outsider. My cousins are just meeting each other, so what's the big deal?" - She still leaves the palace easily... Compared to her, the eldest princess is really a bit pitiful.
"Liu Lang~" Yue Wangshu couldn't help but tugged at his collar.
"Forget it, let's see you there!" Yan Zheng still couldn't bear this little appearance, "You are just too pampered."
Bah, you don’t feel sorry for your own daughter, why don’t you allow me to feel sorry for you?!
With the emperor's nod, the next thing was to arrange for the little girl from the Meng family to enter the palace. In fact, it was simple, and it was just a matter of a word from her, the noble concubine. But Chen Shuyuan, who communicated with her, was Qian Qian.
Thank you so much, even Yue Wangshu can't stand it anymore.
Three days later, the main hall of Yuanzhi Palace.
Chen Shuyuan arrived early in the morning dressed grandly. She looked nervous, not like a mother-in-law, but like a little daughter-in-law.
"You don't have to be nervous." Yue Wangshu asked someone to serve tea, "Today is just a meeting. What happens in the end depends on the emperor."
"Yes, yes, yes!" How could Chen Shuyuan not be nervous? This was a major event related to her son's marriage. She never thought that she could actually come and visit in advance! In her eyes, the Meng family is a wonderful place.
If the girl from the Meng family was half as virtuous as the late empress, Chen Shuyuan would be satisfied.
And since the emperor asked the imperial concubine to summon this girl from the Meng family, and only this one, I am afraid that she is inseparable! But she, the biological mother of the second prince, has such a status that cannot be put on the stage...
For a moment, Chen Shuyuan actually shrank...
"Your Majesty, Shu Yuan, Miss Meng has arrived and is waiting outside the palace." Li Yue came in with a smile to report.
Hearing this, Chen Shuyuan couldn't help but straighten her clothes quickly, as if she was afraid of losing her manners.
Yue Wangshu couldn't help but laugh and said: "Let her come in."
Shaoqing, I saw a young girl wearing a light blue coat and skirt walking in with graceful steps. The girl's eyebrows were slightly lowered and her eyes were not squinting. She walked forward slowly and knelt down to pay homage. "My maid, Meng Shu, is here to see the noble concubine. May I
May the empress live a long and prosperous life."
This etiquette is neat and somewhat neat. His hands are folded on the carpet, and his white forehead rests lightly on his hands.
"Get up!" Yue Wangshu sat on the throne and spoke as gently as possible.
"Thank you, empress!" The girl stood up neatly, but her forehead was still
Looking down, Yue Wangshu could only see his white forehead and a pair of slender eyebrows.
"Raise your head." This girl was polite, Yue Wang said happily.
Then Meng Shu raised her little face. It was like a silver plate, with fair complexion and elegant facial features. She looked pretty and regular. Yue Wangshu breathed a sigh of relief. She looked pretty good, not to mention the female college student.
The Eighteen Changes will probably look even better in two years.
Then he looked at Chen Shuyuan with a smile.
Chen Shuyuan quickly returned the smile. She was a legitimate daughter of the descendant clan, with good etiquette and a reputation for intelligence. She was extremely satisfied.
Yue Wangshu introduced Meng Shu: "This is Chen Shuyuan, who is also the biological mother of the second prince."
Hearing these words, Meng Shu quickly turned around slightly, bent her knees deeply and prayed, "Blessings to Shuyuan, may I be blessed Shuyuan."
Chen Shuyuan nodded, "Ms. Meng is the niece of the late empress. The late empress often visited the palace when she was still alive. Presumably... she has also met the third prince, right?"
Meng Shu lowered her eyebrows and said, "I've seen Shuyuan twice."
Chen Shuyuan couldn't help but be overjoyed. In this way, they could be considered childhood sweethearts!
Having said that, with the intelligence of this girl Meng Shu, she naturally guessed the reason why she was summoned to the palace this time. However, she still maintained a demure and courteous attitude. It has been seven years since her aunt passed away.
It’s been 20 years, and I thought people would just take a break from tea, but it’s unexpected... there are still such twists and turns.
Seeing how quiet the girl was, Yue Wangshu smiled and asked, "I heard that you have been in charge of the Qingning Marquis's house in the past few years?"
Meng Shu, who had always been as calm as water, couldn't help but look tense, and said humbly: "I'm just helping my father take care of some debris in the inner courtyard. My daughter... my mother died young, my father refused to remarry, and my brother never married his sister-in-law.
, so I can only let my servants temporarily take over."
Chen Shuyuan said with a smile: "Where do you have to stand in for me? You are so smart and considerate, which is also a blessing to your father and brother."
Meng Shu couldn't help but think to herself, this Chen Shuyuan is actually an easy person to get along with...
"After all, my daughter is the eldest daughter who has lost her mother." After saying this, Meng Shu bowed her head deeply.
Chen Shuyuan couldn't help showing pity, "She is a poor girl."
Yue Wangshu said casually: "This is not your fault. Just be yourself and ignore other people's gossip."
"Yes, thank you very much for your teaching!" Meng Shu quickly bowed deeply and respectfully.
Yue Wangshu also knew that although this girl looked elegant and elegant, she was still a little nervous, so he smiled and asked her to sit down, gave her some tea, and asked a few insignificant questions, but he saw that the girl was still nervous.
Being cautious about her words and actions, she did not ask further questions. Anyway, her purpose was just to let Chen Shuyuan meet the candidate for her future daughter-in-law. It was not that her son wanted to marry a wife. The final choice had to be made by the emperor.
I was given two pieces of brocade and asked Miss Meng to go home.
