This woman was so bold that she dared to look directly into his eyes.
Chen Jue thought to himself.
Turning his eyes slightly, he glanced at the chessboard that had already been played.
Thinking of what Taifu Wang called this woman just now, she must be Taifu Wang's legitimate daughter.
In addition to his three sons, Taifu Wang also has three daughters, the eldest daughter Shuhui, the second daughter Shuwen, and the third daughter Shuyuan.
The eldest daughter and the second daughter are both concubines and are already married.
Only the three daughters are legitimate children, or children of old age. I heard that they are quite favored in the family.
When Taifu Wang saw His Majesty's eyes falling on his daughter, his seemingly cloudy eyes flashed.
Originally, he wanted to find a time for His Majesty to meet Shuyuan, but it seems that there is no need to find time, this is a ready-made time!
"Your Majesty, this is my old minister's daughter, named Shuyuan."
As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Jue saw Wang Shuyuan bowing respectfully like Taifu Wang just now, "My little girl Shuyuan pays my respects to Your Majesty."
His behavior is similar to that of Taifu Wang. He is definitely the second Taifu Wang.
"As her name suggests, she is worthy of being the daughter of the Wang family."
Chen Jue praised: "I have always heard that the Wang family's women are dignified and graceful, and it turns out that they are so when I see her today."
Taifu Wang's eyes moved, and his eyes secretly moved back and forth between His Majesty and his daughter.
"Your Majesty is here today. Do you want to have lunch at your house?"
Before Chen Jue could speak, Mrs. Wang plucked his beard and smiled: "My little girl Shuyuan is very good at cooking. Your Majesty, why don't you stay for lunch?"
Hearing this, Chen Jue looked at Wang Shuyuan again with a smile.
He curled his lips, and his peach blossom eyes were filled with an invisible smile.
"Okay, since the Master invites you, I will accept the invitation."
Seeing that His Majesty agreed, Taifu Wang was slightly relieved, but he was afraid that His Majesty would not agree.
However, even if you don't agree, it won't affect you.
At worst, he relied on his old age to sell off his old age. Before his death, he relied on his past kindness to ask Shuyuan for the position of queen.
It's just that this will more or less leave a bad impression on Shuyuan with His Majesty.
well!
Taifu Wang sighed.
If he hadn't been in poor health, he wouldn't have thought of sending Shuyuan into the palace.
Taifu Wang: "Good girl, Your Majesty will stay at home for lunch. You go down and get ready."
He knew that his father had sent him away because he had something to say to His Majesty, maybe it was about a major event in his life.
Wang Shuyuan nodded and left. Before leaving, she couldn't help but take one more look at the man who would become her husband in the future.
Maybe he's not as bad as popular rumors say?
As soon as they left, Taifu Wang asked straight to the point, "Your Majesty has been on the throne for three years and has no children. It is said that a country cannot live without a king for a day. I dare to ask when will Your Majesty be crowned queen?"
"Li Hou?"
After hearing this question, Chen Jue suddenly seemed to understand why Taifu Wang asked about his impression of Wang Shuyuan.
Does the Tutor want him to make Wang's daughter his queen? It's not impossible.
"It's time to stand up as queen." Chen Jue pondered for a moment and nodded.
After all, he was choosing a wife for himself, and he still cared about it.
He asked: "Who can I choose to be the successor?"
Chen Jue gently put the tea cup in his hand on the table next to him, leaned back slightly, and looked at Taifu Wang casually.
He seemed to want to discuss with the Taifu.
Upon seeing this situation, Taifu Wang knew that His Majesty also wanted to establish a heir apparent.
If I can get His Majesty to agree to make Shuyuan his queen this time, then the Wang clan will not be gradually liquidated by His Majesty like other clans in the future.
Even if His Majesty wants to suppress the family, he will at least spare a hand for the sake of his legitimate wife and mother's family.
Taifu Wang let out a heavy breath, stood up and saluted Chen Jue.
"As the saying goes, marrying a virtuous wife is the right thing to do. The queen is the mother of a country and must be carefully considered... There is a candidate in my heart, and it is my little girl Shuyuan.
She has grown up next to old ministers since she was a child. She has the best rules and etiquette. If she becomes a queen, she will definitely become His Majesty's good wife. "
Chen Jue originally thought that the Taifu would say that many people would be selected, and then propose Wang Shuyuan.
Unexpectedly, the Taifu did not avoid relatives when promoting talents, but directly recommended his own daughter.
Chen Jue lowered his eyes, resting his chin lazily on the armrest of the chair, and lightly tapped the armrest with the fingertips of his other hand.
Seeing that the person on the other side kept saluting, Chen Jue neither agreed nor refused.
Instead, he has been thinking about the benefits of marrying Wang's daughter.
It was true that Wang's daughter was so beautiful that he was a little moved.
It's just that there are so many good-looking women. If there is no absolute profit maximization, why would he want a daughter from a noble family to be his queen?
It can also be seen that Shuxian is dignified and a good candidate for a wife.
It's just the position of the queen - if you don't like it, you can only maximize her interests!
Waiting is also a test of one's patience, and this patience is still available to Taifu Wang.
I also believe that His Majesty will agree.
From the time he met His Majesty seven years ago, he knew that His Majesty was ambitious. If His Majesty wanted to deal with a noble family, he would definitely marry a daughter from a noble family as his queen.
Just like Emperor Wen back then.
During the period of Emperor Wen, the situation was basically the same as now.
At that time, the Chen Kingdom was established not long ago, and the late emperor died early. In the eyes of the aristocratic family, the Chen Kingdom's royal family just got the throne by luck.
The aristocratic family did not take the royal family seriously, and the royal family had no right to speak.
At this time, the staff around Emperor Wen suggested that he marry a daughter of a noble family as his queen.
Moreover, the daughter of this aristocratic family must have the most say in the family.
At that time, Emperor Wen thought of the agreement between Emperor Gaozu and the head of the Langya Wang family, so he quickly sent someone to the Langya Wang family to propose marriage.
After that, with the support of the Langya Wang family, the royal family gradually became stronger and had the right to speak.
Emperor Wen even played around with the aristocratic families. During Emperor Wen's period, the aristocratic families had always been obedient.
Emperor Wen could bring peace to the world by mounting his horse, and rule the world by dismounting his horse. Therefore, Emperor Wen was the emperor that Taifu Wang admired most.
What he wanted most in his life was to teach an emperor like Emperor Wen.
Unfortunately, the deposed prince was too benevolent and soft-hearted, so he had to focus on the other princes of the late emperor.
The man in front of me looks very much like Emperor Wen!
Chen Jue kept speaking, and Taifu Wang kept maintaining this saluting posture.
After a while, Chen Jue suddenly laughed out loud, "Hahahahaha——"
"Taifu, among the many girls from aristocratic families, Wang's girls are not the only ones who are upright and graceful.
Just like the noble concubine Jiang in the palace, she is gentle and infatuated; the virtuous concubine Cui is knowledgeable and courteous; the virtuous concubine Zheng is a talented woman in the capital——"
Chen Jue paused for a moment, then uttered a soul torture in a relaxed tone, "Why do I want to make your Wang family's daughter your queen?"
After asking, Chen Jue narrowed his eyes and smiled, waiting for Taifu Wang's answer.
"this--"
After seven years of teaching, he thought he understood His Majesty fairly well, but Taifu Wang never expected His Majesty to suddenly ask this question.
