Chapter 843
The carriage was very quiet for the rest of the journey, and Xiao Lintian was silently thinking about what Ling Yu said.
Through birth, old age, sickness and death, we will never leave each other, we will be a pair for the rest of our lives!
This concept is somewhat shocking!
The men around him all have three wives and four concubines. Don’t Ling Yu think this is too high a requirement?
But Xiao Lintian could tell from Ling Yu's tone that she really thought so!
When the carriage returned to Prince Yi's Mansion, the porter saw Xiao Lin's carriage and stepped forward to report it.
"Your Majesty, little Eunuch Xie has just come to convey the emperor's oral instructions, asking you and the princess to attend the palace banquet tomorrow night. It is said to be the reception banquet hosted by the emperor for the envoys from Eastern Qi and South Vietnam!"
Xiao Lintian and Ling Yu looked at each other and walked in together.
Ling Yu asked casually: "When the two countries come to make peace, which princess does the emperor intend to let go to make peace?"
Xiao Lintian pondered for a while before saying: "The sixth princess is the oldest princess. Below her are the seventh princess and the eighth princess. The seventh princess is fourteen this year, and the eighth princess is only thirteen..."
"Then the princess they came to marry, who is the emperor planning to marry?"
Ling Yu knew that several princes had concubines, and the oldest remaining prince was only thirteen years old. It was impossible for Dong Qi and Nanyue to marry an adult princess to a thirteen-year-old prince!
As for being a concubine, according to the status of a princess, it is humiliating, and I guess those princesses would not agree to it!
Looking at Xiahou Danruo's momentum just now, he made Xiao Lintian give up on him as soon as he came. This was obviously for the position of the principal concubine!
Ling Yu just thought about it but didn't take it to heart.
Dong Qi now seeks Western Qin, and after Dong Qi was split into two, its momentum was even less powerful than before.
If Xiahou Dan wants to be the royal concubine, how can the emperor agree to such a rude request?
When Ling Yu returned to Lanyuan, she asked Ling Xuan to pick out a set of clothes for herself and prepare them for the palace banquet tomorrow.
"Master, you have such a big heart! Aren't you worried at all?"
Lingxuan asked while adjusting Ling Yu's clothes.
"worry about what?"
Ling Yu was thinking about Lan Huijuan and asked casually.
Han Yu rushed to say: "Miss, let me keep an eye on it for you! One of the four beauties, Xuezhen, got the first one to sleep with the prince tonight! She took a bath and changed clothes at noon to prepare for sleeping tonight. !”
Ling Yu frowned unconsciously.
He asked casually: "Aren't there two more concubines? What are their names?"
Han Yu immediately said: "One of the two concubines living in Magnolia Pavilion is named Nianzhi. She is quite quiet. She didn't make any noise until the last night. She took the maid back to Magnolia Pavilion to clean up her affairs peacefully!"
"She was also respectful to Min Gu, and even gave Min Gu a good-quality jade bracelet, but Min Gu rejected it because it was too valuable! She didn't force it!"
Ling Yu narrowed her eyes. This Nianzhi was a scheming person. He wanted to win over Min Gu, the steward in charge of the inner house. This person should not be underestimated!
"The other one's name is Ziping. She was drawn to the third night, but she didn't make any fuss. When she went to Magnolia Pavilion, she chose the west wing to live in. She even asked Mingu if she could use the room downstairs to make a small kitchen!"
"Mingu agreed. She asked Mingu to send someone to help her with the kitchen this morning!"
Han Yu spoke quickly: "This Zi Ping looks gentle and elegant. When I saw her maid packing her luggage, she brought a piano and a chessboard! She has a maid who must be very good at cooking, otherwise why would she? I’m going to make my own little kitchen!”
Ling Yu smiled slightly. The four concubines chosen by Queen Wei for Xiao Lintian each had their own strengths. They were specially arranged according to Xiao Lintian's preferences.
Queen Wei really has good intentions!
