Minister Ben Hongzhuang: Lord Xiangguo, I am happy!

Chapter 9 Negotiation
Su Xin pondered for a while, thought for a while and said, "Isn't Fourth Sister's father the Minister of the Household Department? As the Minister, the juniors in the family must be educated, reasonable, gentle and generous. Tomorrow, the eldest sister will go to the Green Bamboo Courtyard to find four Sister said."

"What's so good about the daughter of the Shangshu family? If you want me to say that the eldest sister should find the second sister, the second sister's natal family led soldiers to fight, and the juniors in the family must also be excellent in martial arts. Our Su'er is gentle and refined, full of economics, find someone with strong martial arts skills." Ladies, one article and one martial arts, male talent and female appearance." Xi Xiang said disapprovingly.

Lan Niang felt that what Xixiang said was right, and hurriedly said: "Is there any way to contact the second child? She has been away for half a year, and she doesn't miss home."

"Eldest sister, don't listen to Xixiang. Just like the second sister, she is so fierce that she raises a knife at every turn. If Su'er marries such a woman, she will definitely be crushed to death."

After hearing this, Lan Niang felt that what Su Xin said was very reasonable, and she said: "You are right, you can't look for fierce martial arts practitioners, you have to look for educated and reasonable ones."

"Eldest sister, how boring is it to be well-educated? Life is all about firewood, rice, oil, salt, and not poetry and painting every day. Every day is like this and that. The fourth sister is full of bookishness, abides by the rules, holds books all day long, and reads like a sister-in-law. gone."

When Lan Niang heard this, her face was full of sorrow, and she didn't know what to do.

"Sister, I think it's better to be born in a scholarly family."

"Sister, I think it's better to practice martial arts."

"Hey... I don't think it's good. Why don't you marry a wife and get a concubine first!" Lan Niang sighed. After weighing the pros and cons, she realized that taking a concubine is more important than getting a wife.

"..."

The matter of discussing a wife is gone, but the matter of finding a wife for Su Su, the three old ladies have already kept it in their hearts, and they secretly made up their minds to find a suitable one to be the head mistress of Su Xiangfu.

Su Su was too tired. After entering her own courtyard and her own wing, she fell asleep and fell asleep, as if she had forgotten that the sun was turning white and she still had to go to court early.

palace courtyard
After reviewing the memorial, Long Yan went to the Queen's residence of Kunning Palace.

Empress Shangguan Wenruo was sitting in front of the dressing table, and the maid was combing her hair.

"The emperor is here~" the little eunuch saw Long Yan, knelt down to salute, and shouted in a shrill voice.

The palace servants in the palace knelt down one by one, and Long Yan directly walked over the palace servants kneeling on the ground to the Queen's bedroom.

After stepping into the hall, Long Yan glanced at the kneeling maid, stood with hands behind his back and said, "Everyone back down."

The kneeling maids bowed their heads and left the bedroom half-bowed.

The door of the sleeping palace was closed, only Long Yan and Shangguan Wenruo remained in the palace.

Long Yan strode towards the bed, lifted a corner of the dragon robe, and sat on the side of the bed.

He glanced down at the white brocade thrown under the bed, and couldn't bear to ignore the touch of red, so he couldn't help squinting his eyes slightly.

Shangguan Wenruo didn't get up to salute, she stretched out her slender fingers to pick up the wooden comb and combed her hair.

Long Yan sat quietly for a while, and when Shangguan Wenruo could not speak, he called out with a sullen face, "Shangguan Wenruo."

Shangguan Wenruo stopped combing his hair, then looked at himself in the bronze mirror, and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, are you satisfied?"

"You and Su Suzhen did something to live together?" Long Yan asked in a deep voice without much expression on his face.

"Excuse me? It's really funny. Didn't the emperor specially arrange this matter? Since it was arranged by the emperor, why bother. Prime Minister Su and I are following orders." Shangguan Wenruo said with a sneer.

Long Yan was immediately deflated, the so-called loser does not lose, Shangguan Wenruo's contemptuous attitude, in Long Yan's view, was Chi Guoguo's provocation.

He sneered and said, "The empress and Su exchanged poems and poems, from the 80-year-old mother-in-law in the capital to the three-year-old children singing. Are you blaming me? It's ridiculous, it was a waste of my painstaking efforts, but in the end I became a villain who forced my good into prostitution."
