Capital.
Tai Chi Palace.
"Just now, I asked Yan'er tactfully how the third sister of the Dai family was doing. It was obvious that he didn't have any ideas."
When Yang Yuhuan said this, he couldn't help but smile. He picked up the pounded beauty cream and smelled it, then handed it to Yang Yuyao to smell. ,
"How about some more mother-in-law powder?"
"Sister, didn't you ask clearly? Yan'er doesn't know what you mean?" Yang Yuyao said, "Otherwise, just ask him directly."
"You don't know how smart Yan'er is. If I mention the third sister from Dai Ge's hometown, he will naturally understand."
"I only said that the third sister is very good, well-educated, and very talented. She is a famous and talented woman in the capital, but I didn't say anything else."
"Obviously I don't want to."
"In the future, don't mention it anymore. You can also mention it to Mrs. Nadai so that they don't have to worry about it."
Yang Yuyao said quickly: "Well, if that's the case, then my sister will give you a warning so that they don't continue to have any thoughts."
Yang Yuhuan said "hmm".
She had beauty cream on her face, so her expression couldn't be seen clearly, but judging by her tone, she had already concluded the matter.
Yang Yuyao was close to Dai Ge's hometown, and she knew it.
Dai Guangnai is the Minister of Household Affairs and one of the thirty-six ministers of Daqian. He has high authority and will resign next year to retire.
However, none of the younger generations of the Dai family can take advantage of it.
Dai Guang is also worried that after he retires, the Dai family will decline.
So I thought about setting up a matchmaking relationship to make myself the in-laws of His Majesty.
If a princess is born in the family, she will be the queen of Daqian in the future.
No matter what, it won't be completely lost.
Yang Yuhuan naturally knew what he was thinking, but she didn't want to create a gap between herself and her son just because of a pavilion elder.
Dai Guang wants the Dai family to continue to be prosperous because of his daughter.
She, Yang Yuhuan, didn't want to rely on her son to live the rest of her life.
…
Yang Yuhuan watched his son enter the hall and put down the little girl in his arms.
"Be good, go and play with your sisters."
"Mom, the big pot is here, I want to play with the big pot." The little girl said with a milky voice.
"Lan'er, come here, brother has a gift for you."
Yang Yuhuan made a look and asked the palace maid to take her little daughter away.
Xiao Yan took out a jade pendant from her sleeve and said, "Mom, I'll give it to my sister..."
Yang Yuhuan said calmly: "Well, you give it to Qing'er, and I will give it to Lan'er later."
Xiao Yan glanced at Yang Yuhuan's expression and knew that there was something wrong with his mother's expression. Why did he make her unhappy?
For a while, I still couldn't understand.
He gave the jade pendant in his hand to the palace maid Qing'er beside him.
He quickly said: "Mother, I remember that there are still some government affairs that have not been dealt with, so I have to leave first."
Yang Yuhuan said slowly: "You can try it out."
Xiao Yan had no choice but to say: "Mother, why did I make you angry?"
Yang Yuhuan said: "You still know that I am angry. Let me ask you, why do you want to marry a civilian girl?"
Xiao Yan secretly thought, so this is what happened.
"Mother, I like her. Zhaodi is kind-hearted and simple. When I am with her, I can feel myself relaxing all the time."
"When I first met her, she was carrying firewood. You don't know that coal is used in many places now, but she was walking on the country road carrying firewood."
"At first glance, she looks like a hard-working girl."
"At that moment, I wanted to paint that scene. It was really beautiful."
"But, I didn't bring pen and paper at that time, so I couldn't draw it."
"I just paid a private visit incognito. I wrote down the location of her home, went back and changed my clothes, and then paid a visit."
"That day, I had a very fulfilling life..."
Yang Yuhuan had never seen such a look in his son's eyes.
Gentle as water.
By this time, she was no longer angry.
It's just that... the majestic prince married a commoner's daughter, an ordinary woman who only knew a few words.
The appearance is not bad. Although it is not as white and tender as those of the ladies, it is not that dark either.
When she first saw her, she just thought she was a bit dark and timid, not as elegant and generous as other ladies.
So there are some disappointments.
You can see Xiao Yan's gentle eyes.
But I understood something more.
"Mother, no matter what, I still want to marry Zhaodi."
Yang Yuhuan sighed and said, "Okay, as long as you are willing and you are happy, I won't stop you."
"Ever since you were sensible, you have been by His Majesty's side."
"Now that I have grown up, I know the consequences of whatever I do."
"Your Majesty has no intention of stopping you."
"No matter how angry I am, it won't help."
Xiao Yan quickly stepped forward, turned behind Yang Yuhuan, gave her a shoulder, and said gently: "Thank you, mother, for your understanding."
…
East Palace.
"Your Highness, Prince Yan has arrived."
Xiao Yan raised his head from the desk and said, "Invite him over."
After a while, Xiao Su Jingshi and Shi Ranran walked in and walked directly behind Xiao Yan to watch him handle the paperwork.
"Look, you are really brave and brave overseas. I read this report and was filled with envy. I read it several times."
"I wish I could change your name to mine."
Xiao Sujing sat in front of Xiao Yan and said: "Hey, that's easy to say. You have never been on the battlefield. If you were on the battlefield, you wouldn't say that again."
"So, I want to change, I want to be on the battlefield." Xiao Yan smiled, but he also knew that this was impossible, "I know how dangerous the battlefield is, but what a good man, how can I be afraid? This is dangerous."
Xiao Sujing shrugged and said, "Unfortunately, you are destined not to go to the battlefield."
"Stop talking." Xiao Yan whispered, and continued to process the official documents, saying: "When the Political Affairs Hall comes to collect these...what do you want to eat later?"
“Qin’s Restaurant’s hot pot and meat-shabu-shabu is one of the best in Beijing.”
Xiao Yan only drank three small glasses of wine before his cheeks turned red. The majestic feeling disappeared and he spoke more and more.
"I tell you, if I can go to the battlefield, I will definitely be able to achieve great military exploits and kill the enemy bravely."
"You don't know that I have been born with supernatural powers since I was a child. This is the same as my father."
"Besides, it's not like I haven't done any tricks before. You can't even pass ten moves in front of me."
"ha?"
Xiao Sujing's ability to drink was so good that he drank a bottle in a blink of an eye and was not drunk at all.
"I used to let you. You are the Crown Prince of Daqian, and your status is destined to be extraordinary. As for me, my parents were not in the capital at that time, and His Majesty treated me like his own son. There is really nothing to say, but after all, he is Daqian. Emperor, I am the Crown Prince of Yan."
"If I steal your limelight, believe it or not, many people will go to court to impeach my father."
Xiao Yan smiled and shook his head, saying: "Then let them impeach me. How will my father pay attention to them?"
"It just so happens that these short-sighted people are not worthy of being court ministers at all."
"Uncle Wang is so virtuous. He has been working as a guard for decades."
"I admire you for your courage to sacrifice your family for everyone!"
"If anyone impeaches you in front of me in the future, I will tell him to go home and cleanse his heart."
Xiao Sujing looked at Xiao Yan and knew that he meant what he said, so she said: "Let's forget it. As an emperor, the first thing you should do is to open your mouth and accept advice with an open mind. If you do this, if I really do something wrong, No one dares to impeach yet.”
Xiao Yan said: "Looking at what you said, of course I understand. So, I didn't say what they were impeaching."
Xiao Sujing: "......"
But then I regretted it.
Xiao Yan was so drunk.
What if His Majesty knew that he drank wine from the Crown Prince and got drunk?
Wouldn't it be impossible to escape a beating?
well…….
I have long known that my eldest brother is not good at drinking, yet I still want him to drink.
Xiao Sujing carried Xiao Yan back to the East Palace, and a beating was actually worth it. Just now, he could feel that the elder brother was also worried about something, so he took this opportunity to drink some wine and get drunk.
It’s not easy to be the crown prince either.
