In Zhang Yuyan's impression, her grandfather has always been a man of wisdom who could remain calm despite the collapse of Mount Tai.
It is rare to show such a gaffe, but today because my cousin actually broke his usual behavior and cursed like this, it can be seen that my cousin really disappointed grandpa.
It is true that although my cousin has a good reputation in the capital, his reputation is just good and he has never accomplished anything else. In other words, it is only by relying on grandpa's prestige to get the support of hundreds of officials that he can build up the momentum to win the heir apparent. But anyone with a discerning eye can see that my cousin is probably not as competitive as the fourth prince.
After all, they rely on the Ding family and control the military, so they have a higher winning rate than him.
Sighing, Zhang Yuyan gently rubbed her grandfather's shoulders and said slowly: "Okay, grandpa, my granddaughter will definitely not marry me to my cousin if she knows that you love me the most, but since my cousin is so... why do you Do you still want to support your cousin? Could it be because of your aunt?"
After all, it was her cousin who asked Zhang Yuyan to say that he was incompetent. She was still a little unable to say it, so she omitted the past, but the meaning was that. Not only did she understand, but her grandfather also understood.
Zhang He snorted coldly and said: "Huh! How is that possible? How can the fate of my Zhang family be bound to your aunt, a guy with great ambitions and little talent? The reason why I support the fifth prince is just because of Your Majesty."
"His Majesty?"
Zhang Yuyan's mouth opened in surprise.
Zhang He nodded slowly, with a deep look in his eyes, and murmured: "Our Majesty is not a simple person, your grandfather and I are just pawns he brought out to show off to others.
Haha... The Five Princes Party is just a puppet created by his old man to create a balance.
Did the Fifth Prince really think that the officials would treat him like a loser?
People, sometimes not seeing yourself clearly is the biggest mistake! "
It seems that I have learned a great secret!
Zhang Yuyan was thinking like this...
The Fifth Prince's Mansion.
"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! What on earth is the mother-in-law doing? This is not satisfactory! That is not satisfactory either!
The time given by my father is not much. If the time comes, if I can't give an explanation, I will really lose the qualification to compete for the throne! "
Zhao Sheng walked around his house irritably, his face full of anxiety and irritability, and he no longer looked like the calm and handsome man he once was.
The butler on the side also looked anxious, but didn't know what to do.
Originally, Zhao Sheng just wanted to find someone good-looking for his significant other. In addition, his father was in a hurry at the palace banquet that day and did not give him much time.
He didn't make any more choices, and selected Zheng Lan, the daughter of Zuo Shilang's family in the Ministry of Civil Affairs, among his own powerful officials, and immediately spread the news to the palace, because his mother-in-law once said that the concubine he wanted to marry must be Only if she agrees!
As a result, the news was called back that day, two words not allowed!
Later, Zhao Sheng picked seven or eight more, but as soon as the news was sent to the palace, all the news came out with the word "not allowed".
In this way, Lao Liu's children have been born, and he hasn't even married a princess yet!
Sometimes he really doesn't understand, what kind of daughter-in-law does his mother-in-law want to be satisfied with?
But when he thought of this, a gentle figure appeared in his mind involuntarily.
The woman who would personally bring herself a cup of hot tea and call her cousin every time she went to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
I'm afraid she is the only one the mother-in-law likes!
Can……
It was not like Zhao Sheng had never thought about his cousin, but his grandfather rejected all his attempts without exception.
And whenever he mentioned this matter, the coldness in his grandfather's eyes when he looked at him always made him shudder, making him deeply understand that he really had no hope for that cousin.
That is mother...
But now that my father's words have been spoken, I don't have much time to waste!
Zhao Sheng was going crazy!
He walked around the house a few times again, then gritted his teeth and ordered:
"Come here! Prepare a car! This prince wants to go to the palace!"
After a while, the carriage was ready, and the fifth prince got into the carriage. Under the driver's skillful driving skills, the carriage drove smoothly and quickly towards the palace.
Not long after the fifth prince left the palace, a large group of officials came one after another. When they heard that the fifth prince had just left the palace and entered the palace, they were dumbfounded.
But after looking around, they all decided to stay and wait.
This may be an opportunity for the family to skyrocket, but we cannot let others snatch it away.
Most of them are middle and low-level officials in the DPRK.
None of those things came.
Because they know the true position of the fifth prince.
Palace gate!
The fifth prince's carriage slowly stopped in front of the palace gate. As soon as he got off the carriage, the fifth prince ordered the butler who was following him: "I will go in alone this time. You wait for me outside!"
"I obey, little one!"
The housekeeper of the house immediately nodded in agreement. Zhao Sheng nodded and turned around and left quickly. He came to the palace gate, showed his waist badge, and quickly entered the palace with a waist badge specially given to him by his mother.
Ciming Hall.
Xian Fei Zhang Wanrong is currently holding the soles of a pair of thousand-layer shoes.
The concubines in this palace will find something to do for themselves when they leave, otherwise the whole day will be so boring!
Concubine Xian likes to make needlework. She sewed the fifth prince's clothes when he was a child, stitch by stitch.
Even now, the clothes have certain specifications and cannot be made by her, but she still personally accepts the shoes on her son's feet.
While holding a pin and struggling to put on the soles, making thick thousand-layer soles requires more than just skill. It requires a lot of effort.
From morning to now. This pair is finally almost done!
Finally, after the last stitch was successfully passed through, and after using skills to tie an unnoticeable knot on the soles, Concubine Xian bit off the thread with her teeth, picked up the pair of soles and looked at them repeatedly, with a smile on her face. A happy smile.
Yes, the finished product was exactly as I expected, without any deviation.
Just when Concubine Xian was happy with her craftsmanship, a nun walked in outside the door. It was her personal nun, Aunt Rong.
"Empress!"
Aunt Rong came in and bowed first. Concubine Xian put the soles of her shoes on the table, looked at Aunt Rong in confusion and asked curiously: "What happened?"
She understands the other party and will not disturb her when she is a female celebrity unless there is any big event.
Aunt Rong immediately replied: "There is news from the palace gate. His Highness the Fifth Prince has just entered the palace with your badge. I think he will arrive at Ciming Palace soon."
"What are you doing here, Sheng'er?"
Concubine Xian frowned, full of confusion.
My son never goes to the Three Treasures Palace for anything. Since he opened the palace, he will only enter the palace on his own initiative except during festivals or when he needs help from him.
I rarely go to the palace on weekdays, let alone come to Ciming Palace.
"I think it's because of the list of princesses sent by His Highness the Fifth Prince some time ago." Grandma Rong reminded.
When Concubine Xian heard this, her face instantly darkened!
