"What did you say?" Xihe suspected that there was something wrong with his ears.
Lu Wu repeated again: "Today, many ladies went to Cining Palace to pay homage to the Queen Mother. It is reported that it is for His Majesty's marriage..."
"Asshole!"
Xihe stood up suddenly: "How old is Huaiyu? He hasn't even reached the crown yet! Are they crazy?"
Lu Wu carefully looked at her expression: "Ordinary peasant men get married and have children at the age of fifteen. If Your Majesty gets married, he will choose a queen, discuss the marriage, Najib..." He pursed his lips, "After some preparation, your Majesty's age That’s almost it.”
Xihe was immediately shocked on the spot, this shit is outrageous!
In her eyes, Xiao Huaiyu was still a child. In modern times, he was still in junior high school, which was the age for crazy fun. But now this child was not only pushed to the throne because of the selfishness of Prime Minister Qiang, but also had to learn how to govern the country from ministers every day, and now he also had to get married... …
She took a deep breath: "Go to the door to see when the master will come back? Just say that I have something to ask him. By the way, I want to find out who the queen mother is meeting later."
Lu Wu leaned over and said, "It's Madam."
Xihe closed his eyes, rubbed his temples with his fingers, and thought to himself, this is nothing.
As a result, before she had rested for a while, another maid came to report outside the door, saying that the third-rank Guanglu Temple minister Xie Mansion's mistress, the Jin family, came to visit.
Xihe: "...let her come in."
She could almost think of why Jin came here.
Sure enough, after Mrs. Jin came in, she quickly got to the point: "Madam, I heard that you want to choose a concubine for His Majesty the Emperor? Let me tell you, the Queen is extremely noble, and there is no one in this Dynasty who is more suitable than Miss Er'er. of people.”
Xihe:? ? ? What the hell?
"But your Majesty is the emperor, and in addition to the queen, there are also concubines in the harem."
"It's just that outsiders can't believe it." He smiled and pushed the niece behind him in front of Xihe, "This is my niece. She is two years younger than Your Majesty, and she has always been close to you'er. With her helping you in the palace, you will definitely be able to be as good as you are. It’s as comfortable as ever in the house.”
He pushed his niece and said, "Have you met Madam soon?"
Jin Lianhe stepped forward shyly, bending her knees slightly: "Lianhe has met Madam."
Compared with the last time we met at the Prime Minister's Mansion, a few years have passed and this girl has become more graceful and graceful. Her appearance has followed that of the Jin family, with a slightly plump figure and gorgeous facial features.
His behavior is also considered elegant, without any of the arrogance and domineering behavior that he used to bully the heroine.
only……
Xihe was disgusted: "Who told you that I will choose a concubine for His Majesty? Who told you that I will betroth my daughter to Your Majesty?"
Moreover, God’s cat, Jin Lianhe, has a good relationship with Conner? Isn't it Xie Wan'er who often plays with Nu'er? !
Jin was stunned: "But today the palace is not..."
Xihe waved his hand and swept the cup to the ground, and said coldly: "The Queen Mother is still here, and your Majesty's marriage will be decided by the Queen Mother and the ministers. I am only a first-class minister, how can I be your Majesty's master?"
"Ms. Jin, you are really cruel. You dare to slander me and mean to overstep your bounds!"
"Come here, beat them out!"
Jin panicked instantly: "Madam, I was wrong, I was wrong, I really didn't mean that, please don't whine."
The rough lady covered her mouth with a handkerchief and dragged her out. Soon the voices of the aunt and nephew disappeared in the yard.
Xihe took a fierce sip of tea, but before he could swallow the evil in his heart, he glanced casually and saw that Xie Wan'er was about to burst into tears.
Xihe: ...Why hasn’t she left yet?
Gouzi: Maybe you have something to say?
Xihe waved.
Xie Wan'er trotted over obediently and knelt down: "Madam~"
Xihe helped her stand up: "Silly girl, why are you crying?"
I thought casually: If I tell her, I can let her enter the palace, will she be willing or not?
The system was shocked: What do you want to do?
Xie Wan'er refused to get up, tears welling up in her eyelashes: "Madam... please don't be angry for your mother. When Wan'er returns home, she will definitely tell her father that she will come to apologize to you tomorrow."
Xihe smiled and shook his head: "This matter has nothing to do with you and your father. It was the Jin family's idea. How can you make your father and daughter apologize?" He helped her stand up, "Get up quickly, the ground is cold."
I thought in my heart: Don't do anything. Isn't this the precociousness of the ancients? I want to ask the heroine what she thinks?
System: ...Don't mess around.
Xihe thought to herself, she is a good citizen who abides by the law, why is she messing around?
However, Xihe did not ask Xie Wan'er in the end if she wanted to enter the palace. The main reason is that the little girl is still the original product and looks quite cute and pitiful. Xihe can't really take action against her before she does anything outrageous. .
Maybe he was really frightened by Xihe's angry look in the afternoon, and he was afraid that she would really punish his family.
Xihe asked her to stay for one night, and Xie Waner nodded obediently.
In the evening, Meng Yuchuan took his daughter back home.
After the family had dinner in the flower hall, Meng Ao took the little sisters back to the courtyard. Xihe also dragged Meng Yuchuan into the study and gave a stern warning: "Huaiyu is still young, so we can decide on the queen, but we must wait until he is crowned to get married!"
Such a small child, the hair is not even fully grown, something will happen sooner or later if he gets married so early!
Meng Yuchuan was startled by her serious expression. After hearing this, he found it funny again. He stretched out his hand and pulled her into his arms: "Madam, please rest assured. My husband has already discussed this matter with Huai Yu. We will discuss the marriage in a few years. There is no rush in choosing the queen.”
The stone in Xihe's heart fell: "That's good. I'm really afraid that he will listen to them in everything if he is fooled by the ministers."
Meng Yuchuan smiled and rubbed the top of her hair: "Can you still not trust the child you raised personally? Huaiyu knows it well and will not let others lead him by the nose."
Even when facing his adoptive father, the new emperor would not blindly obey him. He knew clearly whether he should listen or not.
Xihe finally felt relieved: "Then I'll feel at ease."
Not long after, the new emperor announced in the court that he would observe mourning for his grandfather for three years, and the marriage would be discussed again after three years.
As soon as the news came out, the capital, which was about to be stirred up, finally calmed down. With the help of Meng Yuchuan and other ministers, the new emperor gradually became familiar with the emperor's life and government affairs, and gradually changed towards a true emperor.
During this period, as the new emperor's truly beloved sister, Meng'an was like entering a deserted place when entering and leaving the palace.
In order to make it easier for her to enter the palace, the new emperor not only built a palace near the dormitory for her to rest, but also specially gave her a token to enter and exit the palace. No one dared to stop her from entering or exiting the palace.
Xihe: ...For the first time, I felt that I didn’t love my child enough. Look, Xiao Huaiyu cared more about her than her.
Ever since Meng Ao threatened the eighth princess in front of everyone, no one in the entire harem dared to mess with her. This girl became more and more arrogant. She usually entered the palace by herself, but also brought her good sisters with her.
After going back and forth, when Xihe thought of Xie Wan'er again, there were rumors outside that she had an ambiguous relationship with the new emperor.
Xihe:......
