Chu Siqing communicated with him in her heart: [What is your expression? 】
Tu Qingchen said pitifully: [Poor baby. 】
Chu Siqing didn't understand, thinking that he was pitiful because he felt like he was dressed as a milk baby and could only be carried around.
She was still very proud: [So what about Milkman? I haven’t become a saint of Dachu yet! 】
Tu Qingchen originally wanted to tell Chu Siqing out of fellow countryman's affection, but now many people can hear her thoughts about eating melon.
However, whether it was him or anyone else, every time he wanted to speak out about it, he would be automatically blocked.
It seems that this is God's will.
Tu Qingchen's eyes became more and more loving, making Chu Siqing's skin crawl.
Chu Siqing asked: [What is the purpose of Uncle Huang asking me to come to Tianyan Pavilion? 】
Tu Qingchen said: [Just for the convenience of seeing you. 】
Just as he was talking about Emperor Chu Ming, others came.
People coming to the palace from outside reported: "The emperor and the prince have arrived——"
When Chu Siqing heard that the prince was coming, she quickly called the system in her head.
[Atong, please look through the prince’s melons for me. 】
System: [Host, let me look for it. 】
【Yes! The cousin whom the prince admires likes the second prince! 】
Now that there is no queen in the middle palace, Concubine Li, Concubine Xian, and Concubine De jointly manage the harem. The second prince is the daughter of Concubine Li.
Chu Siqing perked up: [What a bloody love triangle! Tell me in detail. 】
When he heard that Emperor Chu Ming and his prince were arriving at Tianyan Pavilion, Tu Qingchen quickly hugged Chu Siqing and greeted him.
Princess Yu also came out to see the ceremony.
After saluting, everyone sat down one by one.
The prince's name is Chu Yuheng, he is fifteen years old and he was born to the late Empress Yuan.
Although Chu Yuheng tried his best to show a calm look on his face, his eyes still glanced at Chu Siqing in the arms of the Imperial Master from time to time.
This is his direct cousin and a saint of Da Chu.
He also went to worship the gods that day and heard the saint's voice clearly.
When he heard the milk baby tell Lu Dahai's secret, he, like everyone else, couldn't believe it.
However, the subsequent evidence was found in the Vice Minister's Mansion, until Lu Dahai confessed to Tong Qi's crime, everything confirmed what Chu Siqing said.
After that, Chu Yuheng became unspeakably curious about this cousin. Now that he saw her up close, he couldn't hold it back.
Emperor Chu Ming noticed that the prince frequently looked at his niece, so he smiled and said, "Heng'er, do you want to give your cousin a hug?"
Naturally, he would like to see his son and niece get along well.
Chu Yuheng nodded and asked Princess Yu: "Aunt, can I give Siqing a hug?"
Han Wanqing was flattered and said quickly: "Your Highness is polite, of course it's okay."
Tu Qingchen handed Chu Siqing in his arms to the prince.
Chu Siqing stared at the prince's handsome face and couldn't help but feel infatuated.
[Ah, ah, the prince brother is so handsome! I really like! 】
When Chu Yuheng heard his cousin compliment him on his good looks, he was about to smile when he heard her say again:
[Unfortunately, it will be green soon. 】
Chu Yuheng's handsome face froze:? ? ?
Everyone present held their breath immediately. While eating the melon with relish, they felt a little restless.
Emperor Chu Ming: My son was actually cheated on?
Princess Yu: Good girl, can you hold back some words?
Tu Qingchen: Poor baby.
Chu Yuheng looked at his cousin's bright eyes and his mind was racing rapidly.
Although he has not yet married, his father has recently decided on a candidate for the crown princess.
There are three candidates tentatively drawn up, namely Ning Qingyan, the daughter of Duke Chengen, Xiao Wenshu, the daughter of Duke An Guo, and Wen Minjing, the daughter of Marquis Yongding.
In terms of personal feelings, Chu Yuheng still prefers his cousin Ning Qingyan.
Does the cousin mean that Qingyan has a sweetheart?
Chu Siqing looked at Chu Yuheng's handsome face and was puzzled:
[Is Ning Qingyan a fool? You don’t like my innocent prince brother, but you fall in love with the second prince who is married and has children? ! 】
The second prince has been married for more than a year and has given birth to a daughter, so "married with children" is easy to understand, but what is the meaning of the prince's "innocent body"?
Chu Yuheng's lips twitched when he heard his cousin describe him as "innocent".
He saw his father, Princess Yu, and the Imperial Master all looking at him with strange eyes, and he couldn't help but get angry.
He, he is keeping himself clean! It’s not like I won’t lift it!
[Oh, it turns out that the second prince seduced her first. He met Ning Qingyan by chance first and deliberately acted graceful. What a scheming man! 】
[You are already married and have a baby, but you still want to seduce a girl who may be your sister-in-law. What a scumbag! 】
When Emperor Chu Ming heard this, his face darkened.
The second prince's hand was indeed stretched too long.
Also, recently many courtiers have suggested that they should make Concubine Li the queen, and there must be someone with ulterior motives adding fuel to the flames.
The harem is not peaceful either.
Princess Yu and Tu Qingchen trembled: Is this, the secret of the royal family and the feud between brothers, something they can hear? !
Chu Yuheng didn't have much idea. Since his cousin was interested in the second emperor brother, he would just marry someone else.
Even if he has feelings for Ning Qingyan, most of them are out of love and care for his sister, not to the point where he has to be his wife.
And he had long known that, being born into the royal family, there were some things that he couldn't decide.
Emperor Chu Ming said: "Master, I have recently been interested in choosing a concubine for the prince. Do you have any recommendations?"
Tu Qingchen cursed: Isn't this just trying to use me to let Chu Siqing name the suitable candidate?
He did not dare to be rude, and after thinking for a while he said: "I dare not speak nonsense. But I have heard that Xiao Wenshu, the daughter of An Guogong, has a reputation for being talented, and Wen Minjing, the daughter of Yongding Marquis, is extremely intelligent..."
These were all chosen by Emperor Chu Ming. Tu Qingchen deliberately spoke slowly, just to test Chu Siqing's heart.
Chu Siqing really went to check the ingredients with the system.
[Guo Shigege is really discerning. The two women he recommended are the best in a hundred. 】
Emperor Chu Ming: I obviously made the list, okay~_~
[Well, Wen Minjing's grandfather had verbally arranged a baby marriage for her many years ago. He was the young master of the Shun County Prince's Palace. Unfortunately, the old man had a bad memory as he got older, so he even forgot about it. 】
Emperor Chu Ming shook his head secretly.
If the Crown Princess is rumored to have been engaged in the future, it will definitely bring bad reputation to the royal family.
[Oh, this Yongding Marquis is still a strict wife. Unexpectedly, Mr. Wen, who is so powerful outside, is often punished by his wife to kneel on the washboard! 】
[This Wen Minjing also learned a superb whip...]
Chu Yuheng couldn't help but shudder after hearing this.
He doesn’t want to marry Miss Wen!
[On the other hand, Xiao Wenshu, the daughter of An Guogong, is really gentle and generous on the outside, yet without sacrificing skills. She is a perfect match for the prince's brother! 】
Emperor Chu Ming coughed and asked the prince: "Heng'er, what do you mean?"
Chu Yuheng said hurriedly: "It all depends on my father."
His father would never marry him a princess who could crack a whip and bring him home, would he?
Emperor Chu Ming immediately decided: "Then Xiao Wenshu, the daughter of Duke An, will be made the crown princess!"
The system immediately broadcast in Chu Siqing's mind: [Host, successfully assisted in selecting the Crown Princess, points +300]
Chu Siqing was confused: [I, I haven't done anything, why are my points still rising? 】
