Sir, I just want to be a salted fish

Chapter 155 King Chu
Concubine Cai and Emperor Ling received the news at about the same time. When they heard that the crown princess had given birth to the emperor's eldest grandson, they found it difficult to sleep in the middle of the night.

Empress Dowager Cai was so old that she went to bed so early that no one in the palace dared to disturb her in the middle of the night. It was not until the next day that the palace palace announced the good news that she had a great-grandson. She was really happy, but she also hoped that Princess Qiu Chan of Jin would also have the crown prince Ping Yu. Good luck.

The Ling royal family has always given birth to more sons than daughters. The chance of Princess Jin giving birth to a child is extremely high. Everyone is always paying attention to Prince Jin's palace.

King Ling Hong of Jin and Princess Qiu Chan of Jin had mixed feelings when they heard the news about the emperor's eldest grandson. Fortunately, their wishes came true. On the afternoon of April 12, Princess Qiu Chan of Jin gave birth to the emperor's second grandson safely. Emperor Ling gave him a gift Name Lingxu.

Even though King Jin suffered some losses in Yunzhou, he is still the prince's current rival. Now that they both have their eldest sons, they have added chips to their future great undertakings.

Since the last banquet for four people was held and the sisters were introduced to the sisters they had made friends with, Tang Bingxuan took Tang Bingqing alone to attend some banquets for young women, but the results were not as good as expected.

On the contrary, Mrs. Liu, the duke's wife, took her niece Tang Bingqing to attend several banquets of noble ladies in Kyoto. Several matrons wanted to marry their second or youngest sons.

Mrs. Liu, the duke's wife, discussed all the interested families with Mrs. Shao, Mrs. Shao, and Mrs. Zhang, the second wife. She had to decide which one should be decided by Mrs. Mrs. Shao, the second wife.

Seeing that the people asking for marriage were all asking for marriage for their son-in-law, who was good at studying or who was going to take the imperial examination, Mrs. Tai nodded happily because her eldest daughter-in-law, Mrs. Liu, was taking care of the matter with all her heart. She also had an idea of ​​Tang Bingqing's marriage.

Mrs. Zhang, the second wife of Tang Dynasty, was not particular about the family background of the person she wanted to marry, but she was a little dissatisfied because there was no eldest son in the family to marry her.

However, Mrs. Zhang herself also knew about her family affairs. Her daughter Tang Bingqing said that she was the daughter of the Duke of Guofan. This was just because the three families were not separated now. If the marriage was discussed after the family separation, her daughter would only be the legitimate daughter of the fifth-rank official's family.

The reason why the second wife Zhang is so anxious is because she hopes that her daughter Tang Bingqing will settle the marriage as soon as possible so that she can get married as soon as possible so that she can help the second wife;
When his son Tang Wenyun came back two years later and passed the Jinshi examination, he could find a daughter-in-law from a noble family, and the second wife would be able to save some money to buy a generous betrothal gift.

But Xiao Jiujiu couldn't tell anyone else what the second lady was thinking. She smiled and sighed: "Sister-in-law also knows that I only have two children, Yun'er and Qing'er. Yun'er is traveling and has to take the Jinshi exam, so we won't be able to get married for a while. "I just hope that Qing'er's marriage will be settled soon, but I have a big issue in my mind about my children's marriage."

When several people in the room heard what the second lady Zhang said made sense, they were all women's families with children. When their children reached the age of marriage, they were always worried about marriage, and no one thought much about anything else.

Tang San's wife Xiao Shao accompanied her mother-in-law and sister-in-law and gave some suggestions. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law selected a more outstanding son-in-law among several people and let Tang Bingqing see him first.

The chosen one is the second son of the family of Sima Ze, the minister of Dali Temple. He is seventeen years old this year and his name is Sima Qiu. He has been admitted as a scholar.

The Sima family is a Huzhou aristocratic family with little foundation in Kyoto, but it is one of the most powerful in Huzhou. The children of the family are involved in all walks of life, and they have the strongest financial resources among the several aristocratic families in Huzhou.

This is what the second wife, Mrs. Zhang, is most satisfied with. She has lived a life of "struggle" for more than ten years, and naturally she does not want her daughter to suffer the same hardship as she did.

Shortly after the Empress Dowager's birthday in early May, Empress Qin issued two decrees. Qin Zhilan, the eldest daughter of Wu'an Marquis Mansion, and Chen Xiaoyue, the eldest granddaughter of Jingting Marquis Mansion, were canonized as Prince Liang and moved into the East Palace.

Empress Qin didn't believe Chen Xiaoyue Kefu's rumors. She only believed in the name of Jingtinghou Mansion and the power in her hands. Crown Princess Ping Yu and Prince Liang Yuan Chen Xiaoyue are both good sisters of Tang Bingxuan. Although they have a close friendship with Ping Yu, Tang Bingxuan also treats Chen Xiaoyue sincerely.

Chen Xiaoyue had a steady and cautious temperament, and was smart and alert. Tang Bingxuan was not worried about the day she entered the palace, but Empress Qin's decree was too sudden, and no one expected that Chen Xiaoyue would enter the East Palace and become the prince's woman.

The Marquis Jingting Mansion has always been very low-key. Even though his wife is Princess Laoshou and his daughter is Princess Li, they have always been neutral in the court. Unexpectedly, their granddaughter has entered the East Palace as Liangyuan.

Tang Bingxuan had no way of knowing whether Queen Qin's move was intentional or whether Emperor Ling made it by default.

The best friends were going to the East Palace, so Tang Bingxuan and others made a special trip to Jingtinghou Mansion to visit Tianzhuang. However, even though Chen Xiaoyue was a high-class Liang Yuan, she was still the prince's concubine in the final analysis;
There was no formal wedding, just a small sedan and a few boxes of dowry, and they moved into the East Palace on the same day as Qin Zhilan.

Chen Xiaoyue sent the waiters out of the room and smiled warmly at a few good sisters: "I am still able to marry into the East Palace with such a weak fate. God has given me a blessing. You don't have to worry about me."

After Chen Xiaoyue said this, she looked at Tang Bingxuan jokingly and said, "Sister Tang and the Crown Princess are familiar with each other. When the time comes, I will ask my sister to put in a good word for me in front of the Crown Princess."

Seeing that Chen Xiaoyue was in good condition, she must have had a plan in mind. They stopped talking about this topic and talked about other interesting things.

When the song ended, Chen Xiaoyue specially left Tang Bingxuan alone, saying that she wanted to say a few words alone.

The expression on Chen Xiaoyue's face became very lonely, and she said softly: "Sister Tang, you know very well what kind of temper I am. I don't ask for the prince's favor, I just want a quiet place to live in the East Palace."

Since Empress Qin wants to win over Jingtinghou Mansion, she will definitely bring Chen Xiaoyue into the East Palace without knowing that the head of Jingtinghou Mansion will do so;
Before empress Qin's decree was issued, Marquis Chen, the Marquis of Jingting Pavilion, solemnly discussed the matter with his granddaughter Chen Xiaoyue, and Chen Xiaoyue voluntarily agreed to enter the East Palace;
It was precisely because of Chen Xiaoyue's reputation as a master in Kyoto and fear that the marriage would become more difficult as it was delayed that the Marquis Jingting reluctantly agreed to Queen Qin's proposal.

Chen Xiaoyue needs to get married and have a place to live, and Empress Qin needs the title of in-law in Jingtinghou Mansion. The two sides agree to their respective requests as an exchange of interests. What happens in the future depends on God's will.

A bitter smile crawled onto Chen Xiaoyue's face, "I will enter the East Palace in three days, and I'm afraid we won't see each other much in the future;
From now on, when you go to the East Palace to visit the Crown Princess, if you think of your sister, just stop by and see me. "

At this time, Chen Xiaoyue not only lacked the joy of getting married, her whole body was still exuding loneliness and helplessness, and she suddenly lost the free and easy vitality she had just now.

This is the helplessness and sorrow of women in the Ling Kingdom. If a woman reaches her age and does not marry, it will affect the marriage affairs of other sisters in the family;

Even if your life is unsatisfactory and you are away from home, it is better than the reputation of never marrying, alas!

Tang Bingxuan did not comfort Chen Xiaoyue at this moment, and said in a cold and solemn voice: "You and I share the same husband, which is opposition. If you fight in the future, I will not help anyone, but if you deliberately murder each other, I will not stand idly by."
