After the divorce, I became the Lord of the Six Houses

Chapter 7 Empress Candidates

In Xuan Guogong's mansion.

When Mrs. Su heard that her daughter had returned, she came to Su Jingyan's room in a hurry and asked, "Ah Yan, you can see those sons today, what do you think of them?"

Su Jingyan thought of those teenagers who didn't know right from wrong and said: "Mother, they are really too young. I really can't marry someone younger than me."

Mrs. Su sighed deeply and said: "Oh, if the elder sons who are older than you and can inherit the title, they have already married wives, and even those who don't marry have already agreed on their marriage. Inherited, didn't it wrong you?"

Su Jingyan comforted Mrs. Su and said: "Mother, this marriage is destined, maybe it will fall from the sky. Your daughter and I are as beautiful as you. If you can find a good husband and son-in-law like Daddy, I will definitely not worry about marrying her." of."

Mrs. Su smiled and said, "You really know how to please my mother."

……

After Hu Wei sent Xiao Yi back to the palace, he ran into his grandfather in the palace.

Taifu Hu asked Hu Wei if there were any amazing works in the Qushui Liushang.

Hu Wei replied: "They are all mediocre, grandfather, in fact, today the Su family held this Liushang poetry meeting to choose a son-in-law for Miss Su...Grandfather, Miss Su..."

Taifu Hu glanced at his grandson, who looked shy like a young boy Hanchun.

Hu Wei scratched his head and said, "Grandfather, my grandson likes Miss Su and wants to marry Miss Su, what does grandfather think?"

Taifu Hu took out the small bronze mirror that he carried with him, handed it to Hu Wei and said, "Look at your appearance, how can your appearance be worthy of the daughter of the Su family?"

Hu Wei: "..."

Hu Wei said cheekily: "Grandfather, although my grandson's appearance is a bit ordinary, he will be considerate to Miss Su in the future, and I also asked my grandfather to help my grandson to propose a marriage. If the marriage is possible, then Su Liu will still call I call uncle."

Taifu Hu stroked his long gray beard and said, "Wei'er, you can marry anyone you want, but only the daughter of the Su family."

"Why?" Hu Wei asked hastily.

Hu Taifu said: "Your Majesty was young when he came to the throne, and he has not been in charge until now. Xuan Guogong's government is very powerful. If our Hu family and Su family marry, it is difficult for loyal people in the world to doubt our Hu family's loyalty!"

Taifu Hu slowed down, and said seriously: "Our Hu family is passionate and loyal, so we cannot be suspected."

Hu Wei said: "However, Duke Xuan's government is also extremely loyal to His Majesty. It is said that Duke Xuan treats His Majesty as a puppet, but it may not be true. Grandpa is also a sensible person. Can't you see that Duke Xuan has bothered to teach His Majesty? Your Majesty is martial Both..."

Grand Tutor Hu interrupted Hu Wei and said, "Wei'er, you are still young after all, it is precisely because Xuan Guogong is loyal to His Majesty, our Hu family and Xuan Guogong's mansion cannot marry."

Hu Wei became more and more puzzled, "Why?"

Taifu Hu said: "Even you know that Duke Xuan is loyal to His Majesty, but how can there be rumors that he treats His Majesty as a puppet?
That's because someone wants to provoke His Majesty and Duke Xuan, and even more so to make the world think that His Majesty is young and stupid, just a puppet, and make the world look down on His Majesty.

If our Hu family marries with the Su family, even if His Majesty is not afraid, can the princes of the Xiao family let it go?The outside will only sit down and the Su family will treat His Majesty as a puppet.

The girl from the Su family is a good girl, but you are destined to have nothing to do with each other, so you should stop thinking about it. "

A trace of disappointment flashed across Hu Wei's heart, and he sighed, "Oh, I can't let Su Liu call me uncle."

……

Your Majesty has turned sixteen, and this year must be drafted.

Because the regent's triumphant return was delayed for a few days, the court and the Chinese government were all discussing the future empress.

Su Jingyan chose from among the previously selected candidates, and selected the daughter with a more beautiful appearance.

After discussing with Xuan Guogong's brothers, four people were selected, and they went to the palace to find the queen mother.

Su Jingyan entered Ningshou Palace, only to realize that Xiao Yi was here today, so she bowed her knees and saluted.

Seeing Su Jingyan, the queen mother said, "Ayan, you came just in time. Let Your Majesty have a look at the daughter you have chosen."

Su Jingyan brought four portraits, and introduced them one by one: "Aunt, this is the third daughter of the Yongping Hou Mansion, Liang Suisui, who is Suirou's younger sister.

This is He Zhimin, the eldest daughter of the Duke of Anguo's mansion, who is also Fang Jiji not long ago. She is a well-known talented woman in Luoyang City.

This is He Lianqiao, the eldest granddaughter of Cheng En Bo Mansion, she is good at medical skills and is generous and hearty..."

Seeing He Lianqiao, the queen mother frowned slightly and said, "Why did you choose her? Her status is much worse than the previous two."

Today, Cheng Enbo is the younger brother of the late Empress Dowager, that is, the uncle of the first emperor. The Cheng Enbo Mansion has not made much achievements. After the current Cheng Enbo passes away, the title of the Cheng Enbo Mansion will be taken back.

Su Jingyan glanced at the little emperor opposite and said, "Auntie, He Lianqiao is beautiful even though her family background is not enough. She is the most beautiful girl I have ever seen in Luoyang. After all, our little emperor looks better than her. Women are beautiful..."

Xiao Yi gave Su Jingyan a sharp look with his black eyes, but the look was so fleeting that Su Jingyan thought it was an illusion.

The Queen Mother said: "Ah Yan, Your Majesty's jokes are not allowed."

Su Jingyan smiled: "This is really not a joke, Your Majesty looks even better than a woman."

Su Jingyan continued: "And this is Prime Minister Lin's granddaughter, Lin Yingying, who won't reach the age of hairpin until two months later, and her appearance and knowledge are also top-notch among girls. These four are the best among Luoyang girls."

The queen mother asked Su Jingyan, "Ayan, you have had the most contact with these daughters, which one do you think is the best?"

Su Jingyan also said in her heart: "As far as my selfishness is concerned, I must choose Sui Rou's own sister. Sui Rou and I grew up together and have a great friendship. I also know her sister's character. .

But considering the overall situation, Lin Yingying, the granddaughter of Prime Minister Lin, is the most suitable.

But if they want to match their looks, He Lianqiao and His Majesty are still golden boys and jade girls.

The one who is most suitable to be a queen and who can be the mother of the world is He Zhimin who has been carefully raised by the He family. "

The queen mother said slowly: "He Zhimin, the daughters educated by Duke Anguo's mansion are indeed not bad, Your Majesty, what do you think?"

Xiao Yi said: "I feel that Miss Su deserves to have a marriage contract with the emperor's uncle before, and the eyes are all the same."

Su Jingyan: "?"

Xiao Yi said in a hoarse voice: "Before I came to Ningshou Palace, Uncle Huang, Duke He, Lord Lin, and Marquis Yongping came to ask for an order to make He Zhimin, Lin Yingying, and Liang Suisui as side concubines."

According to the rules, there are four concubines for a prince. Although Xiao Ting said that the concubine will only be Qingdai, it does not prevent him from having another concubine.

Su Jingyan said sarcastically: "Isn't that bastard not going to marry Qingdai? He co-authored and married Qingdai as the princess, and he still wants to make someone else a side concubine? The affection he does is simply a joke."

After Su Jingyan scolded her, she felt chills down her spine. These women were all considered by the Su family to help the little emperor govern himself.

What did Xiao Ting want to do by making these women his side concubines?
Su Jingyan said to the Queen Mother: "Aunt, is Xiao Ting planning to write the words "wanting to win the position" clearly on his face?"

The Empress Dowager also had this concern, but she still said to Su Jing, "Jing Yan, don't talk nonsense in front of Your Majesty!"

After Su Jingyan and Xiao Yi left Ningshou Palace, they walked east together.

Seeing the boy who was half a head taller than herself, Su Jingyan comforted him and said:

"Your Majesty, you don't have to be afraid of losing your throne. As long as our Su family is here, we will do our best to protect your throne and protect you well."
