Fair Lady

The queen curled her lips in contempt: "Gang Ke died a daughter-in-law and wanted to harm Yao'er. Fortunately, they figured it out." As for whether Jin Xida and Shujie would agree, the queen mother couldn't get through at first. The queen mother really appreciates Zhen Zirou and loves Shuyao.

The queen sneered: There may be many people who would be reluctant to be a "Prince and Concubine", but the Yongping Marquis Mansion will not, not only will not, I am afraid they will avoid it.

June has served the queen since she was a child, and she has won the queen's heart the most, and also knows the queen's thoughts the most. Hearing the queen's cold words and seeing the disdain on her face, she knows what the queen is thinking, and said with a smile: "Those People calculate all day long, thinking that others don’t know how to use their brains. I don’t even think about it, how can there be so many fools in this world? They are really fools, and what are they calculating.

The queen snorted coldly: "Some people are blinded by ambition, and they like to think they are smart and can control everything."

The empress naturally also hopes that her fourth prince can get the position of crown prince, but she is very clear that the emperor is very clear-eyed and will not tolerate other people's schemes, even her own woman and son.

It is the emperor's right to decide who will inherit the great power. It is a supreme privilege that no one can touch. Although the emperor is a wise king who can listen to the opinions of virtuous ministers, he has always been a person with a strong desire to control himself. Allow others to have a little bit of manipulation of his thoughts?Besides, the emperor is now in the prime of life, and all the sons are ready to replace him. Who will be happy?

Among the emperor's current sons.The eldest prince and the fourth prince are the legitimate sons, with the most orthodox names; the second prince’s mother’s family, the Huwei General’s Mansion, is the most powerful, and Concubine Ma’s status is also high (second only to the queen in the harem); The third prince has always had the reputation of "kindness and virtue".

Because each has its own advantages and feels evenly matched, everyone has a reason not to give up.Fortunately, Duke Zhong's mansion has always been low-key, and a few years ago, Duke Zhong (the eldest brother of the empress, the son of Duke Zhong at that time) knew more about the emperor because of his friendship with Marquis Weiyuan and Jin Xida. We talked.Tell her that "not to fight is also a kind of fight", "The emperor is a person with a clearer eye, so don't play tricks under his nose."

Because of "no dispute", the queen and the fourth prince saw more things with the mentality of "bystanders", and the more they realized, the more they let go of their hearts.With such a virtuous circle, the queen has more and more the bearing and demeanor of being the mother of the world.The fourth prince also worked harder in his studies and the matters entrusted by the emperor, and made a lot of achievements...

June said with a smile: "Actually, excluding other calculation factors, Miss Shuyao is really a good candidate. She is beautiful, noble, lucky, and destined to be with you, empress. It's a pity that the fourth prince already has a concubine." The fourth prince decided very early They got married and got married two years ago.With Shuyao's current status, it is impossible to be a side concubine.

The queen smiled and shook her head: "Let's not talk about the prince concubine who may be involved in the fight, even the prince concubine, with her golden tongue and Xia Shujie's love for Yao'er, she will not easily agree to it. Women in the palace are so easy to do." Is it?"

June didn't speak anymore, she followed the queen in the palace for many years.Naturally, I have a deep understanding, although her master is expensive as a queen.But how many people can really understand the ups and downs?Fortunately, the master's heart has become wider and wider in the past few years. The fourth prince is upright, the fourth princess is well-behaved, and the birth of a pair of dragon and phoenix babies is even more joyful.

In the Marquis of Yongping, Shu Wen, who had just returned from the school, rushed to Mrs. Jin's yard. At this time, everyone was basically there to accompany the old lady, and they would go back to their respective yards after dinner.

Before the scholar arrived at the hall, he heard cheerful laughter from inside. Shuwen was very happy: It seems that the rumors are true. The eldest brother is on vacation. It is not strange to be here at this time. The adoptive father has gone to the palace. He came back in the past They are much later than him, okay?

At this time, Shujie's voice said: "Shizi Ning is really in a hurry. This efficiency is not so high. Father-in-law Shunzi even said that he would follow along to pass the decree, hahaha." The satisfied brother-in-law was nervous Sister, what could make Shujie more comfortable than this?His younger sister was the apple of his eye, and he hoped that in the future, he would still be the apple of his brother-in-law's heart.After all, the younger sister spends more time with her brother-in-law than with his elder brother.

Mrs. Jin and You Rongyan: "That's natural, a family has hundreds of girls, not to mention our Yao'er is so good, Ning Shizi is of course afraid that if we are a step late, our Yao'er might make another marriage. gone."

Jin Xida also laughed loudly: "Isn't it? Before the edict was issued, in the imperial study, he stopped calling Uncle Jin and called his father-in-law directly, hahaha. The emperor is very fond of it. He said that she is a girl who is extroverted. The boys at home are extroverted, and I wish I could live in our house." Jin Xida has been resentful for the "brat" who will marry Shuyao many years ago, but now, Qi Haoning, whom he watched and grew up with , but "the father-in-law looks at the son-in-law, the more he looks at it, the more satisfied he is."

What was more satisfying was Shuwen. Before he stepped into the door, his voice came in first: "It's too cheap, Brother Ning, right? He didn't even please my brother-in-law, so he settled the marriage and became my brother-in-law. Hmph, he is cunning, Please directly grant the marriage order, otherwise I will make things difficult for him."

Nangong Miao said with a smile: "Don't worry, you little brother-in-law will have a lot of opportunities to make things difficult for him. Ning Shizi will certainly be able to curry favor with you in the future." During the big wedding, how many brother-in-laws don't make things difficult for the groom?The elder brother generally has to appear prudent, while the younger brother-in-law keeps blackmailing. This is a rare opportunity, and there is only one chance to "embarrass and blackmail" the brother-in-law openly and honestly.

Shuwen's head clicked like a chicken pecking rice: "Mmm, yes, it is necessary, it is not so easy to be my brother-in-law."

Shu Yao, who was the subject of the topic, sat quietly behind the old lady, her face blushing involuntarily.Although it's all my family members chatting, I'm still very embarrassed, but a little sweetness rises in my heart.

Still the same sentence, you will be nervous if you care about it, Shuyao has a little more expectation for her future married life in her heart.Perhaps, she can also have peace and happiness in this life.I can have a husband who loves me and a few lovely children to make up for the painful shortcomings of my previous life.

Once, her heart was ashamed, and at first she even intended not to marry for the rest of her life.Then, in order not to drag down the brother and adoptive father, he made a plan to "break up if they don't agree" and live alone with Li.But over the past few years, the few "typical good men" around her made her desire to have a happy little family loose again.Maybe, she can try to work hard, let go of the shadow in her heart, and really let nature take its course.

Past life to present life.Many things have changed. Not only did she not lose her eldest brother and Wen'er again, she also has a adoptive father who treats their three brothers and sisters as her own. Nice change?

In the ears are the satisfied and excited discussions and jokes of the family members.Shuyao, who is shy and calm on the outside, has already turned back and forth in her heart.

"By the way, Yao'er," Jin Xida suddenly remembered something, "Ning'er will go to Guangdong City next month. The matter of building two islands proposed by the emperor is very important, and it is very likely that it will not go so smoothly. What about that? The Water Dragon King will definitely trouble Ning'er. To avenge his adoptive father Stone Dragon King to consolidate his absolute position in the pirate gang. Therefore, Ning'er's return to the south this time is uncertain. Maybe half a year, a year, maybe three to five years. , do you know about this?"

Although Jin Xida didn't think it would be a problem to wait three to five years, his Yao'er was still young, anyway, the marriage had already been settled, so it would be better to get married two or three years later.But it is still necessary to let Shuyao know, to be mentally prepared.

Qi Haoning is also a martial artist.It is normal to lead troops to fight outside when necessary.In Jin Xida's view, men should work hard to achieve something.No matter whether you study literature or martial arts, you must always have something you want to do and can do well.

If Qi Haoning is just a prince who enjoys peacefully in Prince Yong's mansion relying on his father's glory and halo, even if he spends time and wine, eats, drinks, gambles and whores like many dudes in the big family in the capital, even if the queen mother and the emperor intend to marry him, even if he is the same as Prince Yong. The relationship with her has always been very good, and she will find a way to stop this marriage.If Shuyao, who is well-behaved, smart, and excellent in everything, is married to an ignorant dude, and he goes underground in the future, how can he explain to Zhen Zirou and Xia Linxuan?

Shujie also looked at Shuyao questioningly, he had the same thought as his adoptive father, as long as the marriage was settled, he would be happy to keep his sister for two more years, so Qi Haoning didn't really mind that it might take several years to come back.However, security issues are important.

Shuyao looked at her adoptive father and elder brother and nodded, "Well, brother Ning told me, but he said that he will come back before I reach Ji." The few people sitting in the hall are all elders and relatives who are close relatives, and She and Qi Haoning have already settled on the status of fiancée, Shuyao doesn't think there is anything to hide.

Jin Xida nodded approvingly, and was about to speak, when Shuyao said: "Father, elder brother, I heard that the water dragon king is fierce and cruel, brother Ning is afraid that he will inevitably encounter danger during his trip. Yao'er wants... Give Ning a pulp-cleaning fruit, Yaoer only practiced "Flying Swallow Stepping on the Lotus" light work and hidden weapon acupuncture, and does not fight with others, so taking that pulp-cleaning fruit is also a waste."

Taking Xisui fruit can not only double the internal strength, but also practice martial arts several times faster than others, it is a sacred object for martial arts practitioners.Shu Yao came up with the idea of ​​giving Qi Haoning the marrow washing fruit this morning, but she would not tell Qi Haoning directly before discussing it with her stepfather and elder brother.

Jin Xida and Shujie laughed at the same time, the three of them really wanted to go together.What is tacit understanding?That's it, hahaha!

Now that Qi Haoning is his son-in-law (brother-in-law), Jin Xida and Shujie are naturally concerned about his safety, which is directly related to the happiness of their daughter (sister).

Although Qi Haoning's current martial arts is already very good, otherwise he would not be able to kill Stone Dragon King, make several military achievements, and win the champion of martial arts, and Qi Haoning's master Ouyang Yu, the owner of Guiyi Island in the South China Sea, is also in Guangdong City, and Qi Haoning There are also shadow guards and bodyguards around, but Jin Xida and Shujie still have to worry.

People who can be pirates are cruel and barbaric, not to mention that the Water Dragon King is still a lunatic who is eager to use the so-called "revenge for his father" to establish his prestige?

So when Qi Haoning and Shuyao's marriage was settled, Jin Xida and Shujie's first thought was to ask Shuyao to give Qi Haoning the marrow washing fruit.Although Shuyao also practiced martial arts, and taking the marrow-washing fruit would also increase her skill, she was a lady in the inner house after all, and she majored in lightness kung fu and hidden weapons, so the marrow-washing fruit was much less valuable to her than Qi Haoning's.

Shujie is even more aware that his younger sister's "Flying swallow stepping on the lotus" and flying needle skills are already superb, and he is proficient in using the strange poisons of his master Wu Zhenzi, not to mention that in times of crisis, he can also use light skills to relieve obstacles. People's eyes and ears hid in the mahogany box.Now Shujie is very relieved about Shuyao's safety.

Moreover, the aura in the mahogany box itself has the effect of enhancing internal strength, and Shuyao has to practice internal strength in it every day.For Shuyao, it was a bit of a waste to take that marrow washing fruit.

Seeing the expressions of foster father and eldest brother, Shuyao knew that they thought the same as her, so she also smiled.It's not surprising that her adoptive father and elder brother love her so much that they would "love the house and the crow" to Qi Haoning.

Shujie smiled and said: "Tomorrow, I will enter the palace to thank you and come back. You can give the marrow washing fruit to Ning'er yourself." After entering the palace to thank you, Qi Haoning will definitely come to pick up Shuyao and send her back to the Marquis Mansion in person.

Shuyao nodded in response, she knew that her elder brother wanted her to have more chances to get along with Qi Haoning before he left for the south of Beijing, and to increase mutual understanding and affection.

Their mother, Zhen Zirou, said in her diary that it is sad that they did not know each other before they got married, and that they were married blindly, and it is also the main reason for the misfortune of many women.After all, if men are dissatisfied with their wives, they can have three wives and four concubines, even if they want to divorce their wives, it is not difficult, the initiative is all theirs.And women who are unhappy in marriage can only endure it, and their choices are only "three obediences and four virtues".

This is also the reason why Jin Xida and Shujie supported Shuyao to meet with Qi Haoning and ask some questions face to face before nodding his head to agree to the marriage.

Shuwen naturally has no opinion on the decision to give Qi Haoning the marrow fruit. His relationship with Qi Haoning is already good, not to mention that Qi Haoning is his brother-in-law now. For the happiness of his sister, Shuwen also hopes that Qi Haoning will improve his martial arts Increase is not it?

Mrs. Jin and Nan Gongmiao didn't know what the marrow washing fruit was, but looking at the expressions of the four of Jin Xida, they also knew that Qi Haoning must be very good. After using it, it can enhance martial arts and make it safer. Of course, they also agree .They don't care about the value of the marrow fruit. The important thing is that the safety of their own family comes first.

That's right, with a gift of marriage, in the hearts of all of them, Qi Haoning is already his family. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
