Concubine Rebirth: Your Highness, I am sick

Chapter 321 The scheming man Xiao Dian

Regret?

King Zhao and Princess Zhao almost laughed out loud.It's too late to be happy, the precious granddaughter finally jumped out of the fire pit, and she is about to tie the knot with Prime Minister Wang's grandson. Thinking about it, they are a couple, which makes people forget their worries.

Around the beginning of spring, the snow that had accumulated on the eaves for the whole winter began to gradually melt away.People's hearts are also starting to move around.

Due to Emperor Jinghe's decree, the empress dowager's mourning period ended when the Spring Festival came.The common people, freed from the shackles of the mourning period, began to actively marry men and women.

The first happy event in the royal family was the engagement of King Zhao's granddaughter to Prime Minister Wang's grandson.

This kiss, the order is a bit grand, and it probably means a bit of an edict to the world.The Marquis of Jiangyin reported illness at home and never went to court, so he could avoid facing this embarrassing situation.

But when the Entrance Examination was held in spring, Xiao Dian, the son of Jiangyin Hou's family, suddenly appeared on the list of candidates.

Once this matter was discovered, it spread rapidly.

Xiao Zusheng, Marquis of Jiangyin, recovered from his illness "in due course" and returned to court, surrounded by curious colleagues.Xiao Zusheng didn't shy away from it, saying that this son was only considered to be dying before. Doctor Liu from Duomeng Palace came to see and treat him many times. It took two months to cure the disease.

Everyone was amazed, and said that the son of Lord Hou's family had a hereditary position, so why did he insist on taking part in the scientific examination.

Xiao Zusheng said that his son has read poetry and books since he was a child. Although he is hereditary, he still wants to prove himself with scientific examinations.He was among the best in the previous provincial and provincial examinations, but he was delayed by a sudden serious illness.But no, as soon as he recovered from his illness, he rushed to the examination room immediately.

Everyone praised again, there are really not many children with such connotation, level and backbone.

After boasting for a while, someone finally pretended to be casual and said that Zhao Wang's granddaughter is really unlucky...

Xiao Zusheng hurriedly said, hey, you can't say that, Prime Minister Wang's grandson is also excellent, um, excellent.

The crowd disagreed.

How could such a young man be any better if he could flirt with other girls before they were married, and make the other party insist on him not to marry?

If Prime Minister Wang hadn't passed by, this topic would have to continue.

Right now, Mrs. Xiao is in Yunxiu Palace.Of course it is indispensable to be grateful.

Haitang knew that Liu Mingxu's gift of thanks must be good, so she felt even more satisfied.

According to the rules, the imperial physicians in these palaces are not allowed to take jobs privately.If it was really someone important in the palace who spoke, then go out and earn some extra money.Liu Mingxu's extra money this time should make him extremely satisfied.

Haitang just opened the door, not only helping Jiangyinhou's family, but also giving Liu Mingxu a big favor, which is really worth talking about.

Therefore, there must be a title and status in the harem. Without the title of "Mrs. He Guo", it would be impossible for Haitang to gain such two characters.

Haitang doesn't ask questions about scientific research.Haitang knew which harem could intervene and which harem must be avoided.

After listening to Mrs. Xiao talking about Xiao Dian for a long time, Haitang also had a good understanding of Xiao Dian's character.

Mrs. Xiao was also upset: "Ma'am, you don't know, it's because our Xiao family is weak, and we don't have much power in the court. Although we have a hereditary marquis, it's just a window dressing. Or how can the child be so hard-working? Going to take the scientific examination."

Haitang said: "It's good to have such an ambitious child. Yesterday the emperor told me that I didn't expect Xiao Dian to be different from other children."

When she heard that her son showed his face in front of the emperor, Mrs. Xiao couldn't help but be filled with joy.

"It's not that I'm boasting. Our Xiao family doesn't have anything to brag about now, but my Dian'er, that's really good. He has tenacity in doing things, and he doesn't let go when he sees the goal. The ruthlessness is completely different from his appearance. different."

Xiao Dian's appearance is handsome, this Haitang has heard of it.

Mrs. Xiao was still sighing: "It's a pity, such a good child has divorced, and it will be difficult to go out to ask for marriage again in the future."

Haitang has already got along with the empress dowagers of the two palaces, if Yongyi can marry Xiao Dian, it will be the best of both worlds.

One is a disgraced princess whose mother, concubine and elder brother have been convicted, and the other is a gifted scholar who has been retired from marriage and suffered a serious illness.

Involuntarily, Haitang asked Mrs. Xiao what she meant: "It's difficult to ask for a marriage, the main thing is that no one dares to offend King Zhao..."

When Mrs. Xiao heard this, she became even more depressed, and she couldn't help but sighed again.

This is what she fears most.Her family was divorced by King Zhao. Now that her son is recovering from illness, King Zhao is already very embarrassed. Some people in the court will inevitably say that King Zhao's house is snobbish and dishonest. Who would dare to get engaged to the Xiao family at this juncture?Doesn't it mean embarrassing Zhao Wangfu?

Unexpectedly, Mrs. He Guo said with a smile: "People dare not accept it, but the palace dares."

Mrs. Xiao was startled: "Why did Mrs. He Guo say that?"

Haitang said: "Princess Yongyi and Xiao Dian are about the same age, I see that they are suitable."

Mrs. Xiao was taken aback, of course she knew the identity of Princess Yongyi.It stands to reason that such a daughter of a sinful concubine would be looked down upon by their duke's family.However, Yongyi is not the daughter of an ordinary sinful concubine, and the Xiao family is not an ordinary family of dukes.

She didn't dare to make this decision arbitrarily, and said that Madam He Guo should not propose in front of the Empress Dowager for the time being, and discuss it with the Marquis of Jiangyin when she returns home.

Haitang agreed.Of course, people have to be willing to do this.

Mrs. Xiao did not expect that when Jiang Yinhou and she were worried, her son Xiao Dian said very calmly: "Yes, this is the best candidate my son can meet."

Jiang Yinhou almost cursed on the spot, but Madam Xiao persuaded him to hear his son's analysis before making a decision.

Xiao Dian thought very clearly.

First, although Concubine Lin Gui is a sinful concubine, both Prince Qing and King Qing have passed away, and Princess Yongyi can live safely in the palace, so it can be seen that no one will hold her accountable; There are no major shortcomings. I heard that she looks very good. It was more than a year ago that Princess Yongyi was so popular that she almost made people tear her face. Unexpectedly, it was only the time of a palace change. .

The third point is the most important.Xiao Dian said that the Xiao family now bears the title of Marquis of Jiangyin for nothing, even if he can claim another life, it will only be the end of the day. It is different from injecting the most powerful blood into the weak Xiao family.

Xiao Zusheng was stunned for a while when he heard this, and said: "Son, you are so reasonable that you almost convinced me. It's really better than blue. I really can't get around the twists and turns in your brain. you."
