Long Lin took the Xizhe in his hand, left the palace, and headed towards the mansion.
After walking for a day, he almost completed such a thing. Fortunately, he was very satisfied, and his father was probably very satisfied as well.
The people who were most surprised were probably the group of cabinet ministers.
Originally, they were the easiest people to be selected. I am afraid that those powerful people have already made full preparations and are waiting for their daughters to be married off.
But they probably never thought that all of them would be defeated.
On the contrary, Mr. Sun, who had no hope, was directly chosen by Long Qi.
Thinking of this, Long Lin felt a little weird. He was very curious. If the old general Shangguan chose Long Qi, who would he choose?
Who would have thought that the old man would choose him foolishly.
There must be a reason behind this, and he needs to go back and think about it carefully.
The old general Shangguan was carried away by the guards and walked out of the hall, heading towards the Shangguan family's mansion.
Arriving at the entrance of the mansion, the three sons inside immediately greeted him.
These three people have probably been guarding here since he left and entered the palace.
After the three people saw him, their faces were filled with cheerful smiles.
"Father, what's going on? Has His Highness Long Qi chosen our Xue'er? Should we make some preparations?"
Behind the old general Shangguan, there was obviously a group of forbidden troops. They were carrying a large amount of gifts. They were very chosen.
The person who spoke was Shangguan Yunting. As the eldest son, he still valued his family very much.
Shangguan Yunze glanced behind him and immediately felt happy in his heart.
Although his daughter is excellent, it is a problem that she doesn't go out. Her personality is obviously different from his younger daughter. If she were like his younger daughter, he wouldn't need to worry so much.
Now that he was finally married, he was still a prince, and he was the one who had the best chance of becoming the emperor, so he was naturally happy.
Shangguan Yunzhou also smiled after seeing this. Now, His Highness Long Qi should understand that his heart is still with Long Qi and has not fallen towards Long Lin.
The three of them laughed happily, but Shangguan's hometown army waved his hand.
The people behind them picked things up into the living room and placed them all over the floor. In the courtyard, there were many boxes, large and small.
They didn't look at these things, and a few of them didn't care about them. As generals of the imperial court, the annual salary they received was still very considerable.
After seeing off the father-in-law and the Imperial Guards, Mr. Shangguan took the main seat in the lobby.
Looking at his three sons with a smile on his face, he took out a gift certificate from his arms.
The three people saw it immediately. Naturally, they were shocked for a moment and completely confused. After taking the happy discount back, doesn't that mean they lost the election? Since they lost the election, why would there be gift money for them?
Shangguan Yunting couldn't help but spoke immediately.
"Father, what's going on?"
"Look."
The old general Shangguan handed over the happy fold in his hand.
Shangguan Yunting took it in his hand and immediately opened it and looked around. The person selected above was none other than Long Qi. Shouldn't the good news be that it was in Long Qi's hand? How did he get it back?
"Father, why did you bring Xizhe back?"
After Shangguan Yunting finished speaking, he handed the happy fold in his hand to his two younger brothers. They were obviously very curious and looked at it eagerly.
After hearing this, Mr. Shangguan laughed directly.
"This wedding gift has always been with me. When I went there, I actually prepared two wedding gifts. I asked Xue'er to write the wedding gift herself. His Highness Long Lin took the one away.
Naturally, I got a portion back."
"What? Father, you chose Long Lin?"
Shangguan Yunting couldn't help but exclaimed directly.
After Shangguan Yunzhou heard this, he was dumbfounded. His eyes widened instantly and he simply couldn't believe it.
Didn't the old man say it well when he left? He wanted to choose Long Qi? Why did he choose Long Lin when he came back?
If Long Lin is chosen, what will His Highness Long Qi think of him?
What's going on with this old man? Why did he change what he had promised?
Shangguan Yunze was also stunned. The old man actually met Xue'er, and he didn't even know that Xizhe was actually written by Xue'er herself.
Mr. Shangguan saw the reactions of the three people very clearly, and a deep smile immediately appeared on his cheeks.
"Yes, the person I chose is Long Lin."
"Father, why is this?" The three of them spoke almost at the same time.
"When my father went to the main hall, the cabinet ministers had already handed over their gifts, and they had already announced it. The emperor gave us Shangguan family face, so naturally he would not refuse it, but do you know? None of those ministers
Except, they all chose Long Qi. What do you think a father should do in that case?"
After hearing this, the expressions of the three people changed and they fell silent for a moment.
Choosing a prince is a trivial matter, the emperor is the most important. Who will know what will happen in the future, but right now, this matter cannot be solved.
Naturally, they knew that no one chose Long Lin, which was a disgrace to the royal family.
His father's allegiance is to the emperor, so he will naturally consider the emperor's feelings first. If he chooses Long Qi under those circumstances, I am afraid that the emperor will be disappointed with the Shangguan family immediately. What happens next may be terrible.
It goes without saying that, thinking about it this way, his father had no choice at all.
"Father, you understand your righteousness and have done the right thing. If you had changed the child, I'm afraid you would have made the same choice. However, although the emperor was satisfied with this, it hurt our Xue'er. She could obviously marry
If you give it to Long Qi, you can become the queen of the imperial court in the future and be glorious. It’s a pity..."
Shangguan Yunting said leisurely, his voice full of helplessness.
The other two people also had almost the same expression, with complicated faces.
"Children, do you think Long Qi will definitely become the emperor?"
"Isn't it?" Shangguan Yunting said with a bitter smile.
After hearing this, Mr. Shangguan immediately shook his head slightly.
"You should know that the current emperor, who thought he would become the emperor back then? But didn't the Lei family still choose him? In the end, who could have imagined that he actually stepped onto the throne, leaving Prince Jing with no choice."
"Father, that time was different from today. Under today's situation, it is basically impossible for Long Lin to step onto the throne." Shangguan Yunting also thought about it, but no matter how he thought about it, he felt that it was impossible.
"Until the end, this matter is really not certain. In fact, my father has always wanted to choose Long Lin, but none of the three of you can think of the key point of this matter."
After the three people heard this, they were immediately shocked.
At this time, they suddenly thought that their father might have already had the idea of choosing Long Lin.
Even if someone chooses Long Lin, I'm afraid the old man will still choose Long Lin.
What was the old man thinking? He had obviously made preparations in advance and brought two different gifts into the palace.
"Father, my child is stupid, please give me some advice." Shangguan Yunting suddenly regained his respect and asked sincerely.
The other two people immediately changed their attitude of respect.
Since the old man changed, they have become much more easy-going.
Unlike in the past when he was in the army, the old man in front of him was the top general in charge of the three armies, and they were always respectful.
