Fengming Chen Palace

Chapter 737
"It can be seen that you don't have a good impression of the fourth son of the Xiangyang Houfu, and you are even on guard."

Hearing Chang Le asking for their opinions, Emperor Chen said with a smile.

"That's true. He has an official position in the court, but it's not important. My son doesn't have a deep impression of him, but he has indeed heard of him."

"According to his performance today, his talent is enough to take up more important official positions, comparable to Jing An's, but before this, I didn't notice this, which shows that he is hiding his clumsiness."

"Even if he is the fourth son of the Xiangyang Marquis Mansion, so what if he is not qualified to inherit the Marquis Mansion? This will not prevent him from serving Daxing in the court."

"But he hid his own ability, which shows that there is a story in it. He is an ambitious person. In this way, there is no way for my ministers to choose him as the emperor's husband."

"The emperor's husband that I need is not only to have the same interests as my son, but more importantly, to be able to assist my son wholeheartedly. Things like ambition are the most useless thing for an emperor."

She is not the little princess who can do whatever she wants, she is now the empress and the monarch of Daxing, and her every move affects everything in Daxing.

All her choices are also related to Daxing, and she must be responsible for the decisions she makes.

If there is an ambitious imperial concubine in the harem, there will always be a day of unrest in the future.

This is not what Changle wants to see, so she can only be selfish and choose a person who is willing to give without expecting anything in return to become her imperial husband, and it is best to have the same interests as herself.

Jing An is undoubtedly the best choice, his family and his whole being can be controlled by her.

"Since that's the case, then choose Jing An, isn't he the one in your heart?"

Chang Le has a good impression of Jing An, Su Qingning can tell, since he doesn't like the other one, then don't choose him.

"I do prefer Jing'an, but I can't just pretend that what the courtiers brought up before didn't happen."

There is always an answer to be given, but a more secure answer is needed.

"There's nothing to think about, just do it according to your mind. Choosing an imperial husband is indeed a major matter for the country, but to put it bluntly, it's still your own business. How you choose is also your own choice."

Emperor Chen opened his mouth, he has been emperor for many years, so he naturally knows how to deal with courtiers.

When he said this, Chang Le calmed down, thinking of the Fourth Young Master, she frowned, "Father, how should I deal with the Fourth Young Master?"

"Since he is a talent, he should make the best use of it. Today's incident has completely exposed his talent. If so, it is not good to continue to do some insignificant things in the court."

"If Jing An becomes the imperial concubine, someone will have to take his place, and the fourth son of the Xiangyang Marquis Mansion is just right."

"It's better to put people in front of you than to put them in the dark." After thinking for a while, Emperor Chen replied with a smile, and after hearing him finish, Chang Le's brows gradually relaxed.

"I suddenly thought of a way. You can hand over the horoscopes of the two people's birth dates to Qin Tianjian, and then tell the officials that it will be difficult for the officials to let you put the person whose horoscope does not match into the harem to be your husband."

Suddenly thought of something, Emperor Chen made a point, Chang Le's eyes lit up, this is a good way.

So, on the second day, the birthday horoscopes of Jing An and the fourth son were sent to the Qin Tianjian. Chang Xi made a few remarks, and the chief eunuch of the Qin Tianjian immediately understood what the empress meant.

Three days later, the imperial decree was issued, and Jing An was selected as the queen's wife. After the Changle and Ji ceremonies, the national wedding ceremony will be held.

As for the fourth son, he was transferred from an insignificant position to other official positions.

In the future, when Chang Le and Jing An get married, he will just be able to replace Jing An's official position.

There are still a few years before Changle and Ji, and during this period, Jing An can still serve Daxing in the court.

The matter of the emperor's husband has been chosen, and March is here, the weather is getting warmer, and the flowers in the harem are gradually blooming as time goes by.

In April, Emperor Chen would take Su Qingning with him and leave the palace.

While they were still in the palace, occasionally, Chang Le took Chang Xi out of the palace to play, and most of the time, Jing An would follow.

The two are now an unmarried couple, and they are much closer than before.

On this day, the three of them were planning to go to the bookstore, but unexpectedly, they ran into the fourth son of the Xiangyang Hou Mansion on the street.

"Your Majesty... Young Master." Saluting to Changle, the Fourth Young Master behaved very respectfully.

"I didn't expect to meet the Fourth Young Master here, so I'm going to the bookstall?" Chang Le asked him with a smile in the same direction.

In the imperial court, everyone would address her by first name. Now that she was out of the palace, she thought it would be more interesting to call him Fourth Young Master. This was also a reminder to her.

"My lord, you're being polite. It's enough to call me a word of sincerity. It's my mother's word." This is his word, and few people know it.

"Be careful, that's right." After hearing him finish speaking, Chang Le raised his eyebrows and called out.

"Young Master and Mr. Jing are going to the bookstall? The bookstall here is actually nothing. I know of a new one. It seems to have a lot of good things in it."

The fourth son knows Changle's preferences, after all, he has participated in the selection of the emperor's husband before, so there are many things that need to be understood.

"Oh? Then I'll trouble you to lead the way." You can go and have a look at the newly opened bookstall. Chang Le looked at Jing An, then at Chang Xi, and gave instructions when he saw that the two had no objections.

The Fourth Young Master responded and led a few people towards the newly opened bookstall. It was no accident that he appeared in front of them.

When we meet today, he has something he wants to ask the queen.

Originally thought that the candidate for the imperial husband would be me, but I didn't expect that it would be Jing An in the end.

He doesn't believe that the characters don't match. It's not just a matter of saying whether they agree or not?
He asked someone to criticize their horoscope, which was obviously a match made in heaven, even better than her and Jing An, but in the end, he was not the candidate for the emperor's wife.

He didn't understand, what went wrong?
Could it be, just because the two were childhood sweethearts?But this is wrong, even if she is a childhood sweetheart, she still has other options, she can place both of them in the harem.

My own talent is no worse than Jing An's. If I really become the emperor's husband, it will definitely be a great help.

With something on his mind, the fourth son brought the three of them to the newly opened bookstall.

Entering the store, as usual, they acted separately, the fourth young master took a few steps in other directions, turned around and followed the direction Chang Le left.

Chang Le could feel that there was someone following behind her, and when she reached a quiet place, she stopped and turned her head to look.

"Fourth Young Master has been following me, so he must have something to say, since that's the case, let's talk about it!"
