No. 1 Girl in the Imperial City

Chapter 144 Summoning Mrs. Luo (Part [-])
Looking at the old man who was lying on the bed and described as old and haggard but still looking at him with a smile, Xie Yan couldn't help but feel soft.

Sighing lightly, he said, "What does Auntie want to say?"

The Empress Dowager said: "It's been so many days, and you haven't told your aunt which girl you like to be your princess."

Xie Yan frowned and said nothing, the Empress Dowager said clearly: "I'm not satisfied with this, then next time..."

Xie Yan hurriedly stopped her, and said helplessly, "Auntie, don't worry about it. I... have a lot of things these days, and I will seriously consider it after this matter is over."

The Empress Dowager looked at him fixedly, Xie Yan said seriously: "I promise, I will definitely consider it seriously."

Are you married?
If the imperial aunt must see him get married to be at ease, it is not impossible.

Xie Yan didn't show it on the face, but he was unavoidably disturbed in his heart.

The empress dowager's old eyes flashed with the wisdom accumulated after all the things in the world, "Auntie wants to see you get married, but it doesn't mean that you want to find someone to marry. Zhifei, marriage is a big deal, especially for you, this person must Think carefully. You can rest assured that no matter who you choose, the royal family will support it."

Xie Yan can't laugh or cry, you insisted on forcing me to marry a princess before, but now you tell me that you can't just find someone?
Even though he was thinking this way, Xie Yan still agreed: "Don't worry, Auntie, I know."

When Xie Yan left, the Empress Dowager sighed and shook her head, "This kid has been stubborn since he was a child, he must not understand what I mean."

Eunuch Huang, who was standing by the side, smiled and said: "The prince has been smart since he was a child, and the empress dowager is too worried."

The Empress Dowager said: "I'm not forcing him to get married right away, but to start thinking about it. No one is forcing him, he won't even think about it, even if there is a suitable person in front of him, he will miss it." , why talk about getting married? I'm afraid that he will be cornered and find someone to fool me."

It's hard being a parent these days.Even if the child is over the age of [-], it still can't make people feel at ease.

Eunuch Huang said: "My lord is filial, I won't."

The Empress Dowager shook her head, apparently not having much confidence in her nephew.

"By the way, the last time you went to the Luo family, the little girl from the Luo family..."

Eunuch Huang couldn't help laughing, "Is the Empress Dowager still thinking about the second daughter of the Luo family?"

The Empress Dowager smiled and said: "I just look at that little girl's sweetness, that sweet smile, and that pretty little face, and I feel sweet in my heart at a glance. It's just that she looks younger, In a few years, she will definitely be a great beauty not inferior to her mother, just not quite like Luo Yun's daughter."

At the end, the Empress Dowager couldn't help but complain.

It can't be blamed that the Empress Dowager has a prejudice against General Luo. From the first time the Empress Dowager met Luo Yun, General Luo has never been the image of Yushu's handsome son.

You know, the late Mrs. Luo was once a famous beauty and talented woman in Shangyonghuang City.For such a beautiful woman from a famous family to choose such a martial artist as Luo Yun, I don't know how many wealthy sons of Shangyong were heartbroken at that time.

She has seen all three of the Luo family's children, but the second child is more like Luo Yun, but he is still much prettier than Luo Yun.

As for the eldest and the youngest girl, I'm afraid it's all thanks to Mrs. Xianluo.

Eunuch Huang laughed and said, "It's good that the Empress Dowager likes it, but... I'm afraid General Luo won't be happy."

The Empress Dowager was also a little worried, "Zhifei is in such a position, Luo Yun doesn't like to let his daughter get involved. But... I don't think Zhifei seems to be completely bored with that little girl."

"..." Eunuch Huang was silent, and couldn't help asking in his heart: Empress Dowager, how did you see that the regent is interested in the Luo family girl?Could it be that the old slave is blinded?
The Empress Dowager thought for a long time, and could only sigh and said: "Forget it, the Luo family should not have arranged a marriage for the little girl so quickly, or... call the little girl into the palace tomorrow to have a look? Just call She alone."

In this way, the Luo family should be able to understand what she meant, right?
Eunuch Huang said: "I'm afraid it won't work in the next few days."

"how?"

Eunuch Huang said: "Didn't something happen to Miss Luo family on the way to welcome her? Miss Luo was seriously injured in order to save Miss Luo family. Because the Empress Dowager was not in good spirits for a few days, this old slave didn't take it. It bothers you."

The empress dowager was refreshed when she heard the words, "What's going on? Tell me?"

As the confidant of the Empress Dowager, Eunuch Huang naturally inquired about these things clearly.

Immediately, he told the ins and outs of what happened in the Luo family that day, only Luo Junyao's sudden runaway and fight with Xie Yan was not known because Luo Jinyan blocked the news.

After listening to his words, the Empress Dowager fell into deep thought.

Eunuch Huang didn't bother her either. Based on his understanding of the mistress who had been serving her for half her life, she would never be displeased because the second daughter of the Luo family had put herself in danger.

on the contrary……

After a long time, the Empress Dowager said, "Hurry up! Pass on my order and invite Mrs. Luo to enter the palace."

Eunuch Huang was a little surprised, "Empress Dowager, you are..."

The empress dowager's eyes were bright, and she said: "I won't choose! Anyway, I can't think of anything to do with Zhifei! This girl from the Luo family is the most suitable candidate for the regent princess!"

She was still a little worried that the girl was too young and looked too delicate, and she might not be qualified for the position of regent princess.But now it seems that although this girl looks delicate, she does have the style of a general.

Dare to lead away the pursuers alone, not only a little skill is enough.

Courage and brains are also indispensable!
The Empress Dowager has always been somewhat dissatisfied with the noble ladies of Shangyong, thinking that they are too delicate.It's not that they must practice martial arts, but they are used to relying on their parents, elder brothers, and husbands. Once something unexpected happens, the Empress Dowager really doubts what else they can do except cry and die.

The noble daughters of the same era, although Bai Jingrong was the enemy of Dongling Shuangshu back then, the Empress Dowager hated Princess Mu and Yao Yun even more.

It's a pity that in the early years, I had to assist Gaozu to pacify the world. In recent years, because of the successive deaths of her husband and son, the Empress Dowager is also in poor health, and has no energy to take care of these things at all.

Eunuch Huang hesitated, "Are you going to talk to the Prince Regent?"

The Empress Dowager shook her head and said: "No, go pass the decree first, and find out the tone of the Luo family first. By the way...the reason, the reason is to appease Mrs. Luo who was frightened by the matter of the eldest girl, and send the eldest daughter of the Luo family as well. They were summoned to the palace together. This time, it is indeed because of the imperial court that the girl was implicated."

Eunuch Huang nodded in agreement.

The Empress Dowager said again: "Tell Zhifei the news that I summoned Mrs. Luo."

"Yes."

Eunuch Huang sighed in his heart, for the regent, the empress dowager had worked so hard.I hope His Royal Highness the Prince Regent can really have a good marriage, which can be regarded as reassuring the Empress Dowager.

After receiving the order from the Empress Dowager, the Su family was also a little confused.

She intuited that the empress dowager summoned her not all because of her daughter's wedding, after all, it had been several days.

But in any case, it is also a good thing for Ming Xiang to be able to work with the empress dowager to ask and appease her personally.

So full of doubts, Su Clan hurriedly tidied up her appearance, put on Mrs. Dingguo's imperial make-up, and entered the palace with Luo Mingxiang.

On the other side, the news that the Empress Dowager summoned Mrs. Luo quickly spread to the Regent's Palace.

Gu Jue and Wei Changting, who were discussing in the study, couldn't help but look at Xie Yan who was sitting in the main seat.

Gu Jue found it strange: Does the empress dowager need to report to the prince about such things as summoning her wife?
Wei Changting hid himself behind the folding fan, secretly laughing.

He is the empress dowager's cousin, and his mother often visits the empress dowager in the palace, so he naturally knows much more than Gu Jue, a self-made man who is completely unfamiliar with the situation in the capital.

Seeing Wei Changting's wicked smile, Xie Yan felt his eyes hurt, but his headache was even worse.

The Empress Dowager only agreed to let him think about it for a few days before calling Mrs. Luo, are all women so fickle?
Of course, Xie Yan would not be so naive as to think that the Empress Dowager is so ill now, and she is still in the mood to invite Mrs. Luo into the palace to chat.Even if it is to appease the Luo family, it is the queen mother who should step forward.

Thinking of that little girl from the Luo family, Xie Yan's head hurt even more.

Wei Changting coughed twice, "My lord?"

"Shut up." Xie Yan said lightly.

Wei Changting shrugged his shoulders, closed his folding fan to cover his mouth, to show his sense of humor and shut up.

Xie Yan ignored Wei Changting's expression of watching the show, and after explaining what they wanted to talk about in a few sentences, he threw the two of them out of the study.

Wei Changting, who was kicked out, didn't mind, he smiled and walked out, waving his folding fan, "Old Gu, you can do whatever you want. My son is going to Changling Princess Mansion."

Gu Jue sized him up and asked, "Is there anything I don't know?"

Wei Changting smiled and said, "Since you didn't know it at first, it's better not to know. Believe me, I'm doing this for your own good."

Gu Jue didn't care either, he wasn't very interested in these things originally, but Wei Changting's weird attitude made him a little curious, "Is it related to the Luo family?"

Wei Changting smiled without saying a word.

"Is it still related to the prince?"

Gu Jue frowned, "Is it related to the prince and the Luo family? The Qi clan?"

Wei Changting patted him on the shoulder, and walked out with a relaxed expression.

Gu Jue, who was left behind, was speechless: Is it interesting to play tricks?

In the study room, Xie Yan was resting in the chair with his forehead propped up with one hand and his eyes closed.

That little girl from the Luo family...

Doctor Xue's words echoed in his mind: "That girl, although I don't know how this disease came about, you can't go wrong with a stable state of mind. The little girl is not timid, her strength is not weak, and she is so easily frightened. I'm afraid she was frightened at some point, and her fear and uneasiness had already taken root in her heart. Even if she forgot about it, the influence would not be eliminated. She needed someone to protect her, but there was no such person, so She created such a person by herself. If there is really a powerful person around her who makes her feel safe and reliable, maybe this disease will be cured without medicine."

"It's pitiful to say the least. I lost my mother since I was a child, and my father and elder brother are not around all the year round. With such a family background, I don't know how many crimes I have suffered. Isn't your... what kind of son counting on others? What a crime."

The exclamation of Miracle Doctor Xue still reverberated in his mind, Xie Yan smiled wryly: The Empress Dowager took it for granted, how could he afford the high expectations of Miracle Doctor Xue with his current status?
