Xu Yin was surprised for a moment, and then felt it was natural.
The emperor most likely thought about admitting her into the harem, so why would it be strange to make her the crown prince Liangdi?
She thought for a while and said: "I have no feelings for the prince between men and women."
Princess Changning understood, and finally calmed down after struggling all night: "Okay, I understand."
She glanced at Xu Yin and added the second half of the sentence: "You really like Yan Er more!"
Xu Yin was dumbfounded. Why did this matter happen to Yan Ling again?
Although it was a little pity, she said it herself, so Princess Changning didn't think much about it and thought: "Since you don't want to be the Crown Prince Liangdi, then we have to think of something. If the imperial edict is issued, you can resist
If so, where will my father's face go?"
She really had to think of a way, but Xu Yin didn't want to drag Princess Changning into trouble. The princess was very good to her. If she caused a rift between father and daughter because of herself, then she would be sorry for the princess.
Xu Yin said with a smile: "Don't worry, princess. Concubine De has said that she needs Mrs. Yu and Miss Yu to agree. If I don't want to, I guess they won't force it on others."
Princess Changning was right when she thought about it. From the perspective of the Yu family, she definitely didn't want Yu Manqing to be granted the title of Crown Princess and also a Liangdi. Wouldn't that be great if Xu Yin refused?
With this thought, she relaxed and took Xu Yin's hand: "Let's go to class."
As usual, there was economics and history in the morning, and riding and archery lessons in the afternoon. Although both men and women took it at the same time, they were taught by different masters.
Xu Yin always took this kind of class casually. Just like today, she got on her horse and ran around, passed the master's test, and then sat under a tree to enjoy the cool air.
After a while, a voice came from behind: "You want to see me if you have something to do? Why do you have to say it now?"
She turned her head and saw Yan Ling walking over and sitting down not far away in a dignified manner.
"Because it's not suitable for us to meet in private now." Xu Yin thought of Chai Qi's words. There have been a lot of informants around her recently, and she doesn't know whose influence they are.
Yan Ling raised her eyebrows, but without asking any further questions, she opened her water bag, took a sip, and asked, "What's so urgent?"
Xu Yin repeated what Princess Changning said that morning.
"You can't worry less!" Yan Ling frowned and muttered.
He thought for a while and asked, "What are you going to do?"
Xu Yin said: "I want to know what's going on with the Yu family."
Yan Ling knows this problem very well. The defense of the capital is now in the hands of the general Yu Chong. As soon as he arrived, he sent people to keep an eye on the movements of the general's mansion.
"The Yu family has been in the army for generations, but it was not conspicuous before. Until Yu Chong made a contribution in the Green Forest Rebellion and welcomed the late emperor back to the court. After that, he rose to the top and became a general. Yu Chong has a calm and steady personality, and is very low-key in his actions. He is obviously powerful.
Xuntian, but can't feel his presence. In fact, I have always had a guess..."
At this point, Yan Ling paused.
In the distance, the prince panted and got off his horse. When he saw them sitting together, he winked in this direction and stopped others from approaching: "Let them talk, let them talk!"
So Yan Ling smiled at him and continued: "Yu Chong's ambition may be much greater than what he showed."
Xu Yin was stunned for a moment, then recalled his past life experiences.
After Emperor You seized the throne, Yu Chong still served as his general, but a few years later, he found a reason to kill him.
Is it possible that they had cooperated before, and Emperor You finally took control of the situation, and then the rabbit died and the dog died?
She recalled Emperor You's character in her mind and felt that this was not impossible.
"Can you help me find out the Yu family's reaction?" Xu Yin said, "Someone has been staring at me recently."
Yan Ling nodded thoughtfully: "Okay."
After finishing speaking, Yan Ling went back.
The prince chuckled and said, "Why are you so happy?"
Yan Ling gave a shy smile: "Nothing, just a few words."
…
After leaving the palace, Yan Ling took a walk outside as usual, and then entered a tile house.
There was a shadow puppet show going on in Washili, and he asked for a private room so he could have a meal.
When the food and wine were served, he had already changed his clothes and sneaked out through the secret door.
Yu Chong's schedule today was normal. He went to the military camp in the morning and was returning to the city right now. He met a colleague on the way and stopped by a restaurant.
He was originally bored, so he came to keep an eye on it in person. Unexpectedly, when he saw the singer singing for fun, the peanuts he was peeling almost spilled out!
Xue Ru, it’s actually Xue Ru!
Second Young Master Yan has a very good memory. Even if she is covered with gauze, can she still remember the head he cut off?
So, it’s Xue Ru’s master who wants to hook up with Yu Chong?
Yan Ling absentmindedly took a few bites of peanuts and resisted the urge to go find Xu Yin.
Concubine De summoned Mrs. Yu into the palace the next day.
After some pleasantries, Concubine De asked: "Speaking of which, is Miss Yu getting haircut this year? Do you have any plans for marriage?"
Mrs. Yu smiled and said: "I haven't seen her yet! I don't know what this girl is thinking. Not a single son in the capital has taken a liking to her."
Concubine De showed a suitable smile: "I happen to have a marriage here, I wonder if Miss Yu is suitable for me."
Mrs. Yu knew it well and cooperated very well: "How can the matchmaker be inaccurate? But I don't know which master he is?"
Concubine De said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has also reached the age of starting a family. When Your Majesty mentioned it, I thought, isn't there a God-given marriage in front of me? What do you think, Mrs. Yu?"
Of course Mrs. Yu agreed. Her daughter became the Crown Princess and the mother of the country in the future. What better marriage could there be than this?
In the past two years, the two sides have already had a tacit understanding, and I have been waiting for the other side to speak.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is one of the best among men. This is naturally a good marriage that we can only dream of. I'm afraid my Manqing is not worthy of it."
Concubine De said: "Miss Yu is virtuous, chaste and quiet. She can be called a role model for women. She is a perfect match for the prince."
Mrs. Yu didn't even dare to say so, and couldn't hide the smile on her face.
When the marriage was decided, Concubine De showed a look of embarrassment on her face: "It's just that your Majesty mentioned one more thing at the same time, and he wanted to talk to Mrs. Yu."
Mrs. Yu hurriedly said: "My queen, please tell me."
Concubine De said: "Now that the imperial family is not rich in blood, Your Majesty wants the crown prince to flourish as soon as possible, so he plans to confer two more concubines on the crown prince at the same time. Madam Yu, what do you think?"
After saying this, Concubine De smiled in her heart.
This Mrs. Yu manages her husband obediently and doesn't even let the girl sleep. How can she tolerate her daughter and concubine entering the house at the same time? As long as the Yu family refuses, Your Majesty will also...
"Of course, your Majesty has thought it through, and I have no objection."
"If you don't have any objections..." Concubine De was suddenly stunned for a moment, "No objections?"
Mrs. Yu replied matter-of-factly: "Your Majesty is like this too! It is necessary to continue to produce heirs for the royal family."
