With a delicate smile, the rough guy bows down for the beauty

Chapter 139
The Seventh Prince went to the Queen's side to pay his respects, and he only came out after about an hour.

It is heard that she served the queen, drank medicine and ate food.

After Emperor Jianning knew about this, he went to the queen's palace at night.

The emperor and empress didn't know what they said that night, anyway, it was decided the next day. When the concubine was chosen for King Jin next year, the marriage of the seventh prince was also decided.

This was the first time that he actually said that he would choose a concubine for the Seventh Prince to marry. Someone had mentioned it before, but to be honest, no one really cared about it. Unlike this time, it was finally done.

The Seventh Prince was naturally happy when he got the news.

After he got married and started a business, he could be regarded as having a family of wives and a family of his own to rely on.

This is the case for a prince without a mother family, who can only rely on his wife's family, which is the norm in the royal family.

Because of this joy, the Seventh Prince called Shen Qianwei to his house for a drink.

Ask the kitchen to get a table of good dishes, and the two of them started eating.

The Seventh Prince raised his glass very happily, "For the first time in all these years, I feel that an elder has taken care of me."

These words are actually a bit bitter, but today is a happy day, Shen Qianwei is not disappointed, and clinks glasses with him with a smile.

"The emperor doesn't say anything, but he still remembers you in his heart. This mansion is indeed a bit deserted. After getting married, the wife and children are hot on the bed. Tsk, just think about it, it's very beautiful!"

The two raised their heads and drank the glass of wine, both laughing.

The Seventh Prince asked while serving food.

"What's going on with you and Miss Su's Fourth Miss?"

"What else can I do." Shen Qianwei raised her eyebrows, "I can't compare to you, you can get married in the next year."

What he said was ambiguous and not very clear, and it was also a kind of protection for Su Junning.

Even in front of his friends, he wouldn't say how far the two of them had developed.

The Seventh Prince smiled, seeing that he didn't want to talk about it, he changed the subject.

"There is a lot of discussion about the position of the crown prince in the court. The statement of the establishment of the emperor's grandson aroused the anger of the father, but now no one dares to take the lead, but I look at the secrets, and it seems that brother Jin is the most vocal. .”

Shen Qianwei took a sip of his wine, his eyes darkened slightly.

"Just as King Yu settled down, something happened in the middle of the court. Now King Chen is no longer destined for the throne. In order to keep the foundation of the royal family stable, the emperor naturally wants to cultivate a new successor as soon as possible. King Jin is actually no worse than King Chen. The fourth prince is determined No play."

As an official in the court, even if you don't participate in these things, you still need to know.

After listening to this analysis, the Seventh Prince suddenly asked a question.

"what about me?"

"what?"

This question made Shen Qianwei a little stunned.

Seeing his behavior like this, a dark light flashed in the eyes of the Seventh Prince, and he immediately laughed.

"Look at you, did one sentence scare you? I was just joking, I have nothing, how can I earn money from them, no matter how bad the fourth child is, he still has the support of Concubine De's mother's family."

The Seventh Prince laughed a bit self-deprecatingly, as if he really just asked casually just now.

But Shen Qianwei had known him for a long time, or he could see a trace of unwillingness and longing in his eyes.

At this moment, Shen Qianwei realized that the Seventh Prince might also be tempted by that position.

However, as the Seventh Prince himself said, his foundation is weak and he has no supporters. If he wants to compete with King Jin, or even the Fourth Prince, he is no match. If he wants to win the throne, it is as difficult as reaching the sky.

The royal family's battle for succession has always been a life-and-death battle, and Shen Qianwei didn't want his friends to get involved in it, so at this moment, he pretended to believe the Seventh Prince's rhetoric, and smiled and slapped the opponent's shoulder.

"You can still scare me. I don't know if you are joking. I don't know how comfortable it is to be idle and noble. I still envy you. But if you want to talk about this ability, you must beat the fourth prince by eight hundred miles. That guy, he only knows where the door of a woman's room opens!"

"Hahahaha, with your mouth, no wonder the fourth child hides when he sees you!" The seventh prince also laughed.

He really looked like he didn't care about anything.

After laughing at this, Shen Qianwei asked casually.

"Choose a concubine next year, do you have someone in your heart to choose?"

The Seventh Prince closed his eyes, and the eyes covering his eyes flickered, as if he was idle.

"Who can I choose? I just listen to the wishes of my father and queen mother. I will accept whatever they give me. The royal family has always married wives like this. I can't say whether I like it or not."

I don't know the truth of the words before, but the truth behind them.

After all, marrying a wife in the royal family is basically related to stabilizing the foundation of the royal family, and it is not something that can be chosen according to one's own wishes.

Seeing that the Seventh Prince was a little depressed, Shen Qianwei immediately stopped mentioning it.

He picked up the wine glass again and talked to him about something else.

After a meal of wine, it was already dark when he came out of the Seventh Prince's Mansion.

Shen Qianwei only felt a little drunk, and when he got on the horse, a gust of cool wind blew, which relieved the drunkenness a bit.

It gets dark early in autumn and winter, and there is only the last smear of yellow in the west at this moment. The stalls that come out of the roadside night market have already hung up lanterns. They are bright red, which is really beautiful.

Shen Qianwei rode a horse and walked slowly along the market, thinking of the scene of visiting the night market with Su Junning after watching the fireworks that day.

The girl's clothes are light, like a ray of sunlight, shuttling between the stalls in the brightly lit market.

She was standing in a bustling area, but he could only see her.

While her thoughts were reverberating, she walked to the vicinity of the Su Mansion unconsciously. Shen Qianwei came back to her senses, glanced at the plaque on the gate of the mansion, and couldn't help but curl her lips.

Counting the days, today is only a few days away from November [-]th, and the weather is good again, so I want to come.
It should be good to see the moon tonight.

After thinking about it like this, the light in Shen Qianwei's eyes became brighter and brighter.

Lightly clamping the horse's belly, he turned around and went home.

"Let's go, Chasing the Wind, I'll take you to watch the moon at night!"

The horse under him snorted and trotted, as if responding.

One person and one horse returned to the mansion leisurely, but at that time in the Seventh Prince's mansion, the mood of the Seventh Prince was not as good as him.

The reason why he asked such a question during the dinner just now was because he wanted to probe Shen Qianwei's mind.

I wanted to find out if he would be willing to support me to win the heir.

After all, although the Shen family's family background is not high, both Shen He and Shen Qianwei have military exploits, and then they will have the opportunity to hold military power in the future, which is a great help.

It's just that at the moment, it seems that Shen Qianwei never thought of participating in the struggle for the heir apparent, let alone that he would fight for the crown prince.

In this way, the Seventh Prince would not be able to speak at all.

It's not easy to recruit an unintentional person, especially if this person is still a friend.

The seventh prince was worried that Shen Qianwei would persuade him not to earn money.

If he doesn't earn money, the Seventh Prince thinks he can't do it. After all, he rarely has a chance, so how can he be reconciled if he doesn't earn money.

So let's not mention it for the time being, let's do it and see.

Shen Qianwei didn't know the seventh prince's heavy thoughts at the moment, he was thinking about going to watch the moon at night.

I didn't tell Su Junning in advance, I don't know if going suddenly at night will scare her.
