Don't be offended! She is Mr. Xiao’s little ancestor

"My dear grandson, you are finally back. Grandma is getting old. She is afraid that she may not be able to see you for some reason, so it would be nice to come back!"

The old princess knew that her grandson might not leave again when he came back this time, so she just said this.

"Grandma, you are in good health and will live a long life. Don't talk nonsense."

The old man laughed and said, "Okay, longevity. It's true that we just arrived now. This food has been kept warm. I'm afraid it's not that delicious. Why don't you let them make it again?"

"Something happened and I was delayed. I told grandma not to wait, but grandma wasn't asleep."

"At my age, grandma has nothing to do all day long. She can't sleep at any time. She doesn't want to spend the night. She will eat something soon. She will wash up and tidy up later and go to the morning. When she comes back, she must go to the palace to order some food. A Mao."

"Ok!"

Xiao Yu nodded while eating. He wasn't actually hungry, but the old man would feel bad if he didn't eat something.

His parents died young, and he has no other brothers or sisters. He only has two cousins ​​who are not close to each other. They were born to his grandfather's concubine. They lived separately long ago, and his grandfather is no longer here. Their family has always had a clear line of descent. There is not much contact, of course, because he is almost always in the military camp.

"By the way, you just said that you were delayed because of something on the road. What's the matter? Is it important?"

With such a precious grandson, it is normal for an old man to be nervous about everything.

Xiao Yu didn't answer in a hurry. He put down the bowl and chopsticks and wiped his mouth. He took a sip of tea to rinse his mouth. After staying in the military camp for a long time, he was not so particular about it. Besides, he was casual in front of his closest relatives. It doesn't matter.

"Grandma, I just want to tell you something. My grandson would like to trouble you to help him prepare to propose marriage! My grandson is getting married."

"ah?!!"

Fortunately, the old man has a good heart. Otherwise, if he said this without warning, he would have shocked the old man.

"You...tell grandma carefully what's going on?"

The old man looked nervous, holding Xiao Yu's hand and patting it.

"Grandma, don't worry, grandson will tell you slowly."

"Say it, say it quickly."

There were both shocks and surprises, and the old man looked at his grandson eagerly.

"Grandma, you probably know what's going on when I come back this time. The emperor wants to keep me in the imperial city. Now that the border is stable, he doesn't want the military power to be overly concentrated. In these years, my grandson has been walking in the army. The prestige is getting higher and higher, and I am afraid that some unpleasant words have reached the emperor's ears... These are normal. The grandchildren also want to come back and accompany their grandmother. The grandmother is getting older, and her grandchildren are not worried about being away. But if the emperor wants to keep me, he must find a suitable reason. My grandson heard that the queen intends to promise Princess Yan to her grandson..."

"Yu'er, do you know the consequences of marrying Princess Yan? My son, you heard my grandmother say that she is your grandson. No matter how bad our palace is, she can still directly influence your marriage. If you don't want to marry, no one can I can't force you, and the emperor can't force their princess to you. It's a shame that they figured out that they all have the same surname, Xiao. Don't worry, the queen won't come to you. If she does, she will come to me. Old woman, grandma will stop you."

It seems that the old man is also aware of the situation, has been mentally prepared for a long time, and does not intend to let his grandson marry the princess.

Because she doesn't want her grandson's marriage to become a rope that binds her grandson. Besides, they were originally a family, but they have faded away after a few generations. After all, they are all Xiao family members. They are also royal people. How can there be such a truth? Loyalty, fighting on the battlefield, doubting this and that just because of a few bullshit words from those sycophants. "Grandma, there is a saying that is true. There is no royal land in the world. Don't worry, my grandson doesn't want to marry a princess. The emperor just wants me to stay, and the queen wants me to marry her. Her daughter is hers. My idea is, I will find a reason to stay. The emperor can’t force me to marry anyone, right? My grandson has already thought about it. He will get married, but instead of marrying a princess, he will marry Luo Yunyan, the legitimate daughter of Yongle Hou Mansion. .”

"Who?"

The old lady was stunned for a moment and couldn't remember which Yongle Marquis House it was.

"Does grandma remember that she was once one of my grandfather's lieutenants? A lieutenant named Luo Zhenglin!"

The old man frowned and thought for a while, "I seem to have some impression. There were quite a few lieutenants who followed your grandfather. Now that I mention it, I really can't remember which one it is, but the name is a bit familiar."

"He is the late Yongle Marquis. It's just that he was still young and did not inherit the title at that time. Later, he also led a army. Unfortunately, he died young. The one I want to marry is his granddaughter, the direct descendant of the Yongle Marquis Mansion. Girl, if you think about it carefully, grandma must have heard about the Yongle Marquis Mansion. It was the man who lost the whole house in a bet a few years ago..."

It's not a glorious thing, but it's easy for the elderly to think of.

"That Yongle Marquis Mansion!!! No, no, grandson, although grandma doesn't know much about it, but if there is such a man in the family, the family tradition must be bad. Grandma only has a grandson like you, and she doesn't say you marry her. If a daughter-in-law wants to stand out, she can’t be any worse than other families, and this family can’t do it.”

"Grandma, she's not bad. My grandson met her when he was a child, and I saw her again today. You have always believed in your grandson the most, so you will believe in the one that your grandson likes, right?"

"...Grandma certainly believes in you. It's just that this is a major marriage matter, but you can't be careless. If the girl you marry is from a bad family, it will ruin the whole family. You are a single generation, can grandma not be cautious? You said you Have you seen him today? You just entered the house, how come you have seen him before? "

"On the way... we met by chance. She happened to be out of the city. Grandma, this is not the point. The point is that the queen will probably use me to return to the imperial city tomorrow and invite you to the palace to sit and talk. Then it will be a matter of course. When the marriage comes up, do you reject it in public? Isn’t it inappropriate?"

"The queen can't be so tyrannical!" The old princess hesitated a little. If she said it in private, she would have an excuse to refuse, and there was room for detours. If the queen put down her face and proposed marriage to her in public, then she really didn't know how to respond.

"Grandma, I have already told her that I will propose the marriage in three days and have people go outside to spread the word. This marriage...is basically settled. You believe my grandson."

Xiao Yu knew what the old man was worried about, and also knew that this matter was too sudden for her, and for him as well. But since it was such a coincidence, he would just do it as it happened, which would save some trouble. Moreover, she said, She also needs a marriage and is probably quite anxious.

However, he was still a little curious. How could she be sure that he would agree?

"Yu'er, are you serious?"

The old man's expression became more serious and his tone became more serious. He looked into Xiao Yu's eyes and asked.

"Yes!"

The old princess nodded slowly, took his hand and patted it, "Grandma knows, you go change and clean up first."

Xiao Yu knew for sure that his grandmother was not an ordinary old lady. Since she said so, he could rest assured about this matter.

When he got up, he thought of something again, "Grandma, she doesn't live in the Yongle Marquis Mansion now. My grandson doesn't know the specific reason. If you want to propose marriage, just go to her directly. She lives in the house on the right side of our palace..."

During the Chinese New Year, there is nothing to be done about it, there are too many things to do, and we need to take care of ourselves and recover as soon as possible.
