The concubine is addicted to the world

Chapter 27 The Princess' Thoughts (1)
"I've decreed that all officials above rank five must bring their family members to participate. I see that there are quite a few grown-up princes and grandsons in Prince Rui's residence and Prince Jin's residence. Why isn't the Empress Dowager so beautiful as an adult? By the way, she will also choose concubines for them."

As soon as the emperor said this, Prince Rui and the others' faces changed slightly, and they couldn't figure out what the emperor meant for a moment. According to common sense, the concubines would look after the princes and grandchildren, and they would not bother the empress dowager at all.

The emperor meant that he didn't want to see any relationship between the important officials and the prince, so he mentioned a few princes in a disguised form. The princes secretly paid attention to it, and must not provoke the emperor's jealousy. When you go back, you must talk to the princess. The idea of ​​​​marrying should be stopped as soon as possible Stop, and think of another way.

Empress Dowager Qi nodded, "Alright, the Ai family can agree, if you have a girl you like, regardless of your status, the main thing is to have a good character, and the emperor's grandmother will make decisions for you."

The emperor agreed, "The queen mother's words are reasonable, well, I have something to do in the previous court, King Rui and King Jin are here with me!"

Su Han finally breathed a sigh of relief after seeing off the emperor, leaving behind a few princes, and Empress Dowager Qi asked them one by one.

The princes shook their heads tacitly and vetoed, but they would not say anything. The queen mother said that it depends on the character. As long as they speak, they will definitely displease the queen mother.

A girl from a good family can't get in touch with foreign men, so how can she talk about her favorite impression.

"Grandmother, grandson knows only a limited number of noble ladies in Kyoto. They all look at them from a distance through the veil. How can you tell whether they are good or bad? Besides, whether the face under the veil is round or flat, beautiful or ugly, I don't know at all, wouldn't it be rude to marry back rashly? There is only one grandson, and at least his facial features should be handsome, well-educated, and talented."

Prince Rui's son, Qi Huaifeng, was only sixteen years old, the child of Princess Rui's narrow escape, so naturally he was more pampered than ordinary children.

Empress Dowager Qi squinted at Prince Rui, "You are afraid that the bride's ugly appearance will scare you away. This child, who can come to the concubine selection banquet, is not talented, and everyone is young and beautiful. The emperor's grandmother will remember it." Yes, I will satisfy you."

Only now did Prince Rui feel relieved.

Empress Dowager Qi's eyes suddenly looked at Su Han, who was sitting upright with her head half down, demure and elegant, her eyes moved slightly.

Several people accompanied the queen mother and said a few words, and the queen mother began to drive people away.

"Okay, there's nothing wrong with staying here, let's all go back." Empress Dowager Qi said.

"Grandson retire."

Empress Dowager Qi turned her head to Su Han and said, "A few days ago, the third princess kept nagging in Aijia's ear that she didn't have a companion. If she knew you were coming, Aijia would hide herself, and she might make a fuss when she turned around. Come on, there are a lot of cakes newly made in the kitchen, how about you send them over for your aunt?"

Su Han glanced at Ling Shi, knowing that the Queen Mother had something to say to Ling Shi, that's why she dismissed herself, Su Han pretended not to know.

"Okay, it just so happens that Han'er hasn't seen the princess for a long time, and I miss her so much."

Empress Dowager Qi pointed to the maid to take Su Han over, and Su Han left the Palace of Mercy with the pastries.

Ling's heart tightened in vain, knowing that the queen mother must have something to say, so she dismissed the whole room,
After a while, Empress Dowager Qi put away the smile on her face, said solemnly, casually.

"Did Yuan'er take care of Sister Han?"

Ling's heart sank, the more she was afraid of something, "Sister Han is still young."

The Empress Dowager Qi sighed, and then said earnestly, "Which prince does Yuan'er like? You might as well listen to it, there are only outsiders here, who abandon their identities, and only aunts and nephews. The emperor is becoming more and more jealous of the Ling family. The time to protect the Ling family is running out, and the Ai family must not watch the centuries-old family of the Ling family be uprooted after the death of the Ai family."
