The Queen Mother was stunned: "Miss Kou?"

Of course it's not that she doesn't remember Miss Kou, the old lady has a good memory.On the first day of the Lunar New Year, she said in front of all the married women that she would look for a suitable son-in-law for Miss Kou, which was like holding Miss Kou's marriage in her hands.

As long as she didn't mention it, the Shaoqing Mansion would not dare to make the decision without authorization, and Miss Kou could only wait.In a few years, Miss Kou will be over 20...

The Queen Mother was surprised that her grandson actually liked Miss Kou.

King Xiu's head was still wrapped with a soft cloth. Although the imperial doctor said he could move it, he still looked a little weak at the moment.

He lowered his head slightly, with a stunned look on his face: "I heard that the Imperial Grandmother wants to choose a husband for Miss Kou. My grandson has been very fond of Miss Kou for a long time... If the Imperial Grandmother can make it happen, my grandson will be extremely grateful..."

The Queen Mother opened her mouth, not knowing what to say.

She was worried about Miss Kou's marriage simply because she didn't like the little girl who behaved similarly to Mrs. Xin. She never thought that one day her grandson would beg her for help.

Without King Xiu sacrificing his life to protect her, the Queen Mother would have refused.But having said that, King Xiu would not have spoken if he had not saved the Queen Mother.

It was when the Queen Mother was most passionate about King Xiu. She refused for fear of hurting her grandson's heart, but if she agreed, wouldn't Miss Kou become the princess?

"Ping'er Xinyue Kou girl?" Emperor Xingyuan became interested.

Unlike the Empress Dowager, Emperor Xingyuan admired Miss Kou quite a lot. Thinking about it, it would be pretty good if the little girl became one of his own.

When Emperor Xingyuan asked him this question, King Xiu blushed even more: "Miss Kou has a pure and kind heart and noble character, which makes her son heartbroken."

Emperor Xingyuan smiled and looked at the Queen Mother: "What does the Queen Mother think?"

The Queen Mother asked, "What does the Emperor think?"

"Ping'er is nineteen this year, and it's time to get married. Miss Kou has outstanding appearance, and it's rare that Ping'er likes her. My son doesn't have any objections, it just depends on the mother's wishes."

Emperor Xingyuan knew the Queen Mother well, and if he acted cheerfully, the Queen Mother might be disgusted.His dispensable attitude towards this actually helped facilitate this matter.

It would not be wrong to say that Emperor Xingyuan must have Miss Kou as his daughter-in-law, but it is true that he has a good impression of Miss Kou.To him, the daughters of Baiguan Xungui's family were vaguely named A, B, B, and D, but Miss Kou was a living person.

The Queen Mother frowned: "The Ai family just feels that Miss Kou is of lower origin."

"My son remembers that Miss Kou's father was a Jinshi, and he was a magistrate. His background is not considered low."

The prefect is in charge of government orders and is the highest local chief executive.

"But her parents are gone, so she is not a blessed person."

The Queen Mother's disapproval of her background was an excuse, but she actually felt that it was an advantage for Miss Kou.

"It is her greatest blessing that the Imperial Grandmother is willing to make the decision on Miss Kou's marriage." King Xiu spoke softly, without any sharpness, "As for the grandson...if the Imperial Grandmother feels that the grandson and Miss Kou are not suitable, then...the grandson Listen to the Imperial Grandmother."

He tried his best to look as if nothing had happened, and lowered his eyes to hide his disappointment.

The Queen Mother couldn't help but feel soft.

When she reaches the position and age of the Queen Mother, she has taken the soft side rather than the hard side to the extreme.If you go against her, expect bad luck. If there is no dispute or quarrel, the old lady will think more about it.

Now the Queen Mother began to think: it was her grandson who saved her life, and it was she who asked him what he wanted, but she refused to agree when the child asked him. This was indeed a bit inappropriate.

That's all, I'm going to take advantage of that Kou girl. If she really wants to marry into the royal family, it will be easier to beat her if she is not sensible.

The Queen Mother found a reason to comfort herself and relaxed: "If you really like it, then I will do it for you."

King Xiu was stunned for a moment, and then he was overjoyed: "Thank you, Grandma Huang, for making it happen!"

Seeing this, the Queen Mother couldn't help but curl her lips: "Your injury is not healed yet. Take good care of yourself after you go back. Don't worry about this. The Imperial Grandmother and your father will make arrangements."

King Xiu thanked him again, his brows and eyes were filled with joy.

The Queen Mother saw it and was very satisfied.When a reward is given in exchange for sincere gratitude, the giver will of course be happy. This is human nature.

After leaving the side hall where King Xiu was housed, the Queen Mother discussed the matter with Emperor Xingyuan.As for King Xiu's biological mother, An Bi, she was only informed when the matter was finalized, so she didn't know anything at this time.

"When the Queen Mother came to congratulate her on the first day, she said she wanted to choose a good marriage for Miss Kou, so let the Queen Mother arrange this matter, and the son will not interfere." Emperor Xingyuan said with a smile.

The Queen Mother also smiled kindly and said, "Then the Ai family will first call Mrs. Duan family into the palace for a chat."

Originally, it was not out of good intentions to marry Miss Kou in front of the married woman. Even if some married women were envious at the time, they would understand it as time went by.And now the husband chosen for Miss Kou is the emperor's eldest son. While people envy Miss Kou's good life, they will definitely be shocked by the Queen Mother's kindness and generosity.

The Queen Mother thought that in the future, those foreign wives would flatter her more sincerely. Although she still didn't want to see Miss Kou, she felt another kind of unspeakable pride.

The old lady of the Shaoqing Mansion was confused when she received the news that the Queen Mother had summoned her.

The news that the Queen Mother almost had an accident on Mid-Autumn Night had already spread, and the old lady also knew about it, so she was even more confused.

The Queen Mother was so frightened, shouldn't she take good care of her? Why was it rumored that she was a foreigner entering the palace?

If she was bored, it would not be her turn to go into the palace to accompany the Queen Mother to relieve her boredom.

A few days after the Mid-Autumn Festival accident, the old lady never thought of getting married to her granddaughter.She was nervous all the way on the sedan chair that came to pick her up from the palace, and she became even more nervous when she walked into the palace with red walls and gold tiles.

"Queen Mother, the old lady of the Duan family has arrived."

"Come in."

Following the announcement, the old lady walked in and saluted respectfully: "My wife has met the Queen Mother."

"Old lady, there is no need to be polite."

The voice coming from above was very gentle. The old lady calmed down and stood up slowly.

"Give a seat."

When the old lady sat down, the Queen Mother smiled: "Look at the Ai family, the old lady looks better than she did at the beginning of the year."

"There are few things at home, and my wife doesn't have much to worry about..."

The old lady had to admit that ever since her granddaughter said she would clean up the house behind closed doors, the house suddenly became calm.Thinking about last year again, it’s hard to look back.

"It's also the old lady who manages the family well."

After the pleasantries were finished, the Queen Mother turned to the main topic: "The marriage of your granddaughter has not been decided yet, right?"

The old lady's heart skipped a beat and she quickly denied it.

"On the first day of the new year, the Ai family took a look at Ling's granddaughter and liked her, so she couldn't help but want to be a matchmaker for her."

The old lady hurriedly said: "It is her great fortune that Qingqing can be favored by the Queen Mother."

It turns out that Qingqing was brought to the palace for her marriage.

The Queen Mother actually still remembers Qingqing’s marriage!

At first, the old lady took it seriously, but then there was no more movement from the Queen Mother's side, and she realized that the Queen Mother might have just said it casually.

It would have been a disaster for anyone else, but for the old lady who didn't want her granddaughter to get married, it was actually a good thing.

"The eldest grandson of the Ai family, King Xiu, is nineteen years old and it's time to marry. The Ai family thinks their two children are quite suitable. What does the old lady think?"
