Princess Chen smiled and said: "The princess is chosen for the seventh and eighth brothers. You have to think carefully about the choice. You must choose a woman with gentle, virtuous and good character. Otherwise, the family will be uneasy in the future, and the father, emperor and mother will have to worry about it." .”
This sentence seems to mean something.
Chu Yunfei turned his eyes slightly, leisurely admiring the various top-quality peonies in the peony garden, and said in a leisurely voice: "It's not enough to be gentle and virtuous. As a member of the royal family, a person with a noble status and a powerful hand, once he can't control his emotions, he will be in trouble. It is possible to do irrational things, so it is best to be controlled by a wife who knows right from wrong, so that the husband can restrain himself and avoid making big mistakes."
Princess Chen's expression paused.
If what she just said was a bit cryptic, Chu Yunfei pointed at her nose in these words.
Thinking of King Chen's thunderous anger that night two days ago, which put everyone in the house in danger, Princess Chen is still frightened. Qianqi's whereabouts have become an indelible shadow in the couple's minds.
However, she quickly waved away the negative emotions in her heart and smiled faintly: "Since ancient times, men have been the master of the outside world and women have been the master of the house. The model of a lady is to be gentle, humble, and obedient to her husband. Especially the royal family, where the rules are greater than the rules of heaven. The princes have been strictly taught since childhood. We have already understood when we should do something and what we should not do. As women, we just need to obey. With this little knowledge and insight, how can we be qualified to advise our husbands?"
"Some people are born smart, and some people are born dull. It has nothing to do with acquired knowledge and knowledge." Chu Yunfei looked as usual, as if he was having a friendly discussion, "Just like some people are inherently good, and some are inherently evil. There is something in their bones. It won’t change easily.”
Princess Chen looked worried: "Really?"
Does she really think that the War King dotes on her a lot because she can control her husband?
What a joke.
"Besides, our ancestors have said that marrying a good wife will bring prosperity to three generations." Chu Yunfei sighed, "Although I have always believed that responsible men should not place their family's hopes on women, but men in this world are not Everyone can distinguish right from wrong, and there will always be times when things go wrong, and at this time the importance of a good wife comes to the fore."
"Yun Fei is right. There is something gentle about being gentle, and there is something about being strong." The Queen smiled faintly, "Women from aristocratic families have different temperaments, and the one you like is the best. Men have different temperaments and responsibilities, so for The wife’s requirements are also different, there is no standard in this matter.”
Princess Chen pursed her lips and did not dare to say any more.
The Queen spoke with concern: "How is King War doing lately? I heard that he is not in good health."
"Thank you, Queen, for your concern. Rong Cang has not been to the military camp for some days. He has been resting at home during this period." Chu Yunfei smiled bitterly, with just the right amount of worry and a pretentious expression on his face, "But The imperial doctor said it’s okay.”
The Queen hummed: "I would like to designate a concubine for the King of War. Who do you think is more suitable?"
As soon as these words came out, not only did Concubine De feel slightly trembling, but the expressions of Princess Chen and Princess Yu also changed slightly.
The hands of the two of them couldn't help but tighten the handkerchief. The queen asked Chu Yunfei alone what she meant.
Is the Queen planning to support Rong Cang in his bid for the throne?
"Report to the Queen." Chu Yunfei lowered his head, "My daughter-in-law does not want Rong Cang to marry a concubine."
Concubine De raised her eyes to look at her, her eyes were narrow, and she smiled gently and said: "The King of War has been staying at the border all year round, and his marriage was a few years later than other princes. This concubine should be married, because he is the prince after all. It can’t be just one wife.”
The concubine of the Chu family was just a concubine in Prince Zhan's palace, which was not considered a formal status at all. Concubine De did not regard her as a person at all.
Chu Yunfei lowered his head: "Rong Cang promised his daughter-in-law that besides Chu Yunjiao, she would not have any other concubines, not even concubines in the same room."
The queen was silent for a moment and couldn't help but sigh.
Is this girl really stupid or just pretending to be stupid?
Is marrying a concubine simply marrying a concubine? That was for the power behind marrying the concubine, giving Rong Cang more leverage and helping him ascend to the throne in the future.
"Have you thought it through?"
Chu Yunfei nodded: "Think clearly."
"Okay." The queen smiled helplessly at Concubine De, and then said, "Then what do you think of Miss Qin?"
Princess Chen stood aside with her eyebrows lowered, her heart suddenly sinking.
Chu Yunfei told the truth: "Miss Qin is smart, flexible, gentle and considerate, and she has a great time chatting with Princess Chen."
Concubine De frowned and glanced at Princess Chen subconsciously. They were having a pleasant conversation?
Does this mean that Qin Zhilan will be married to King Chen as a concubine?
She took a deep look at Chu Yunfei, deep thought flashed in her eyes, and the same doubts as the queen arose in her heart.
Is Chu Yunfei really stupid or pretending to be stupid?
During this period, there was an obvious disagreement between Prince Chen and his wife and Prince Zhan. She, an unrelated person who was far away in the palace and devoted herself to tending flowers and plants, had heard a lot about her. Logically speaking, even if Chu Yunfei didn't want Rong Cang to marry Qin Zhilan, This person should not be pushed to Princess Chen's side.
Princess Chen felt even more unhappy.
She was originally worried that Chu Yunfei would take the opportunity to sow discord, but she didn't expect that she would directly tie Qin Zhilan to Prince Chen's Mansion. In this way, the queen would naturally guess Qin Zhilan's intention.
For the sake of Taifu Qin, the queen should go along with her wishes. But in this case, Chu Yunfei really wasn't worried at all that King Chen would have more and more wings with Taifu's support?
"However, the Qin family is a well-known official, and the Taifu is an important official in the court with high morals and high respect. His granddaughter's marriage must be carefully considered." The queen sighed, "I am afraid that being a concubine will humiliate her."
Princess Chen looked slightly nervous and was about to speak, but she heard the Queen quickly say again: "I have my eyes on the girl from the Palace of the Minister of Civil Affairs."
The Palace of the Minister of Civil Affairs?
Concubine De didn’t even remember who it was.
Chu Yunfei did know. Thinking of the pretty and innocent face of the Shen family girl, she slightly raised her lips and said, "My daughter-in-law thinks it would be appropriate to give Miss Shen a hand in marriage to the seventh prince."
The queen nodded slowly: "It is indeed appropriate."
As long as they don't talk about the three Princes Yu, Chen and Zhan, Concubine De and the three princesses can look much more relaxed.
The Queen walked and chatted, already having a good idea of today's situation.
The only one who was uneasy was Princess Chen.
Chu Yunfei really didn't want Rong Cang to marry the concubine, so she told the truth and politely declined without any thoughts in her heart. However, Princess Chen had already reached an agreement with Qin Zhilan and wanted to bring the Qin family into Prince Chen's camp. Come.
So when I heard the Queen's words, "Being a concubine, I'm afraid I'll humiliate her," I started to feel uneasy.
She originally wanted to say a few words, but the queen quickly changed the subject, leaving her no chance to speak.
As for Princess Yu, probably because of Concubine De's presence, she had been very quiet and never spoke when she was not forced to.
