The Splendid Fate of the Reborn First Daughter

Chapter 170

The second prince is in the mansion, listening to the housekeeper.

The housekeeper said: "I heard that the third young mistress and Zhao Xinghai are very close, and they are very affectionate. No one has mentioned the matter of marrying a side concubine."

The second prince said: "According to the usual practice, the main wife should marry the side concubine after three months of entering the house. They don't understand the rules in their house?"

The housekeeper said: "I don't know about this, I only know that their palace has no plans to marry a side concubine now."

The Second Emperor thought for a long time, and said, "Could this not work? This Prince Ning's Mansion is really a tough nut to crack."

The steward said: "Their family is making a fuss about marrying that fifth son, Zhao Xingyu, as his wife."

The second prince sneered and said, "The fifth son, how many times have you been married? Every time you make a joke, it's really not on the stage."

The housekeeper said: "The more idiots are like this, the easier it is to make friends with. As long as you have money and women, there will be no disobedience."

The second prince thought for a while and said: "Alright, go, send someone to send a letter to that Zhao Xingyu, saying that I invite him to come over to the house." The housekeeper immediately agreed.

Here, Zhao Xingyu was very surprised when he received the news. He couldn't help looking for Concubine Yao and asked, "Mother, the second prince invited me for no reason. I'm really at a loss."

Concubine Yao, on the other hand, was full of ambition: "Silly boy, it must be that you are now a servant, have made many friends, and gained a good name in the capital, which has attracted the attention of the second prince. A talent like you, Is it normal to attract attention wherever you go?"

Hearing what she said, Zhao Xingyu also became proud: "That's right, it's normal for a smart and handsome person like me to be appreciated."

Concubine Yao said again: "Although I don't understand government affairs, I have also heard that the second prince is actually the candidate for the crown prince in the emperor's heart. If you get in touch with him, it will be easy for you to make a fortune in the future. My child, I have suffered so much for so many years. , I finally saw hope."

Zhao Xingyu said: "Mom, what are you talking about? Could it be that there was no hope before?"

Concubine Yao sighed: "How do you know that although the prince is the biggest in this family, he always consults Zhao Xinghe for everything. Which eye saw you? Then Zhao Xinghe just relied on the fact that when the emperor hid in the mansion, he talked with the emperor. I have had friendship before, so I have always been treated as the emperor's favored minister. But now that the second prince has chosen you, if he... you are a minister of the dragon, how can you be worse than that Zhao Xinghe? With your intelligence Wisdom, I'm afraid it's stronger than him, you say, this is not hope, what is it?"

After hearing this, Zhao Xingyu became more and more complacent, "Mother, don't worry, I will definitely earn you a set of Fengguanxia pendants."

Concubine Yao also became happy when she heard this: "My son is filial, mother will just wait."

On the second day, Zhao Xingyu dressed up specially and came to the second prince's mansion.

When the steward saw him, he said, "Our Highness, we have been expecting you for a long time, please hurry up."

Zhao Xingyu became more and more complacent, and walked in proudly. Seeing that he was unreasonable, the housekeeper was also dissatisfied, but the smile on his face became brighter and led him all the way.Arrived at the Flower Hall.

As soon as Zhao Xingyu entered the flower hall, he was immediately attracted by the ornaments on the antique shelf.

When the second prince entered the flower hall, he saw Zhao Xingyu looking intoxicated at the jade bottle on the bogu shelf.

The second prince couldn't help frowning, he coughed, Zhao Xingyu quickly stood up, and saluted, "Your Highness."

The second prince felt better when he saw that he was well-dressed, talented, and polite.

The second prince said modestly, "Fifth Prince Zhao, please sit down."

Zhao Xingyu sat down cautiously, and the second prince chatted with him,
Zhao Xingyu tried his best to express his eloquence and eloquence.

The second prince saw it and understood it in his heart, so he said: "I heard that you are discussing marriage recently, do you have any clues?"

Zhao Xingyu said shyly, "I haven't found a suitable one yet."

The second prince said: "I have a candidate here, I don't know..."

Zhao Xingyu was taken aback, and immediately beamed with joy: "The person you fancy must be good, but, whose daughter is it?"

The second prince said: "My concubine mother has a niece from her natal family, named Li Meixin..."

Zhao Xingyu was overjoyed: "Thank you Your Highness, I will go back right away and let my mother propose marriage."

The second prince smiled: "This is the best."

The two chatted for a while, then Zhao Xingyu left.

Seeing him leave, the second prince said to the steward: "This Zhao Xingyu talks eloquently, but when you think about it carefully, it's all rhetoric and has no practical use. It can be seen that he is just talking on paper and has no talent. No wonder, even family discussions I can't participate, now I'm only messing around in the sixth part."

The butler said: "Then you still betroth Miss Meixin to him?"

The second prince said: "Meixin is just a middle-of-the-road figure, not of much use, she always wants to marry, why not give it to this Zhao Xingyu, win his heart, and then see if the backyard of Prince Ning's Mansion can do it." some articles."

The housekeeper understood and said nothing.

When Zhao Xingyu returned home, he was so happy that he wanted to fly.He went straight into Yao's side concubine's courtyard, and said cheerfully: "Mother, you must not have guessed that the second prince has acted as a matchmaker for me."

Concubine Yao was also very surprised: "Which family is the girl from?"

Zhao Xingyu couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart, and said, "It's the niece of Concubine Li's natal family."

"Ah..." Concubine Yao was also happy: "Isn't this treating you as one of my own?"

Zhao Xingyu was also beaming with joy: "Think about it, didn't I have an affair with the second prince? In the future..."

Concubine Yao said happily: "Don't talk about the future, even now is an honor."

The mother and son got together and discussed in detail how to be hired and how to marry, until it was time to light the lamps, and then they went to rest with unfulfilled desires.

The next day, Concubine Yao invited her natal mother to come to the Li family to propose marriage in person.The Li family naturally agreed to the words of the second prince.Concubine Yao couldn't help feeling complacent.She purposely came to the study room and said to the prince: "My lord, you don't know that Xingyu is now promising, and the second prince will personally match him..."

The prince didn't wait for her to finish, and immediately asked: "Why is the second prince acting as a matchmaker for Xingyu?"

Concubine Yao couldn't help feeling complacent: "The second prince heard that Xingyu is smart and handsome, so he specially wanted to betroth his cousin to Xingyu."

The prince glanced at her: "Which cousin? Li Meihua?"

Concubine Yao said, "It's Li Meixin."

The prince felt better now, he asked: "Then you..."

Concubine Yao said: "Of course we are happy for such a great event. Today, I have asked someone to ask for a marriage, and the Li family has already agreed. My lord, this dowry cannot be sloppy..."

The prince waved his hand and said impatiently: "You can arrange the dowry yourself. Ask the princess for money."
