Concubine's Survival Handbook

Chapter 291
"Since you have nothing else to do, let's go down." Knowing that Zhao Ying had nothing else to do, the emperor sent him away. After all, he had to think about what Zhao Ying said just now.

Seeing that the emperor was already thinking about the suggestion he just made, Zhao Ying was overjoyed and left without staying any longer.

After Zhao Ying left, the emperor did not have the leisurely attitude just now, thinking carefully about what Zhao Ying said.Now that the prime minister's mansion and the general's mansion are married, the interests of the two families will be entangled. Although Xiao Aiqing and Zheng Aiqing are both veteran ministers, they are also loyal to the country and devoted themselves to the country. It is detrimental to the royal family.These two families, one civil and one military, control the state affairs of Zhao State.As the saying goes, the embankment of a thousand miles is destroyed by ant nests.Regarding the country's society, there should be no accidents at all.

Thinking of this, the emperor's eyes flashed faintly. Zhao Ying just said that he could put a woman next to Xiao Lin, and he thought this method was very good.

This is the woman's choice, so she has to think carefully.The daughters of some officials cannot be given away, what should I do if there is a disagreement in the future.The princess in the palace can't marry, since neither the daughter nor the princess can be given, then...

The emperor's eyes lit up, and he had a suitable candidate in his heart.

General's House.

Since she came back from the Prime Minister's Mansion on No. 16, Xiao's mother started to prepare with great fanfare. The man's preparations were more than the woman's. There were many things about getting married, which were cumbersome and complicated.

"Master, someone from the palace is here." The housekeeper trotted all the way to Father Xiao and said.

"Imperial Palace?" Xiao's father was taken aback, looked at Xiao's mother next to him, hurried out, and saw a father-in-law standing in the courtyard, followed by a group of maids, who were holding things in their hands and covered them with red cloth.

When the father-in-law saw Xiao's father and Xiao's mother coming out, a flattering smile appeared on his face, and his voice was sharp: "The emperor's oral order..."

After Father Xiao heard it, the emperor knew about Xiao Lin and Jing Ning's marriage and came to give gifts, so he knelt down to thank Longen.

After it was over, the father-in-law saluted Xiao's father: "This slave is here to congratulate the general."

Xiao's father also laughed and asked the servants in the mansion to take away the gift from the emperor, and at the same time winked at Xiao's mother.Xiao's mother is clever, and she immediately understood what Xiao's father meant.He took out a pouch from his sleeve and handed it to the eunuch.

The father-in-law put the purse in his hand and weighed it. It was heavy, and the smile on his face became more flattering. He put the purse in his arms calmly, "I still have some things to do, so don't delay."

Father Xiao nodded and said with a smile: "In that case, Eunuch, go slowly."

The father-in-law turned around, the smile on his face disappeared in the blink of an eye, he waved his hand, and left the general's mansion with a group of servant girls.

After the father-in-law left, Xiao's father's expression became obscure.

"What's the matter?" Xiao's mother noticed the change in Xiao's father's expression, and asked suspiciously.

"The emperor has a suspicious temperament. Now that the general's residence and the prime minister's residence are married, the emperor may have other thoughts in his mind."

"No way, the emperor also knows your loyalty. Lu Yao knows that horsepower will see people's hearts for a long time, and the emperor should be very clear in his heart." Mother Xiao comforted.

"I hope so." Father Xiao sighed, but said nothing.

Zheng Anyan also received a gift from the emperor, just like Father Xiao, Zheng Anyan also had the same worries in his heart.But since the marriage is already a matter of iron and steel, they don't think about it anymore, they only hope that the emperor can trust them.

But what Father Xiao didn't expect, on the second day after the emperor gave the gift, a carriage stopped outside the general's mansion, and the father-in-law in the palace came with him.

Upon receiving the news, Xiao's father hurried to the door, and the father-in-law who came yesterday looked at him with a smile on his face. "Slave greets the general."

"Eunuch, does the emperor have other orders? Why bother Eunuch to make another trip." Father Xiao laughed.

"It was the emperor who suddenly considered Young Master Xiao's situation, and specially asked the slaves to send it."

"Excuse me, father-in-law, who is in this sedan chair?" Father Xiao took a look at the carriage, the carriage was quiet, and he didn't know who was in it.

The father-in-law smiled, and glanced at the maid standing beside the carriage. The maid understood what he meant, and said softly to the carriage, "Miss."

A plain hand stretched out, opened the curtain, and slowly got out of the carriage.

Father Xiao's expression changed.

I saw a young woman alighting from the carriage, graceful and graceful, with slender hands, pale eyebrows like autumn water, and delicate muscles accompanied by the breeze.

Father-in-law was still looking at Father Xiao with a smile on his face, but Father Xiao's expression had already darkened.

Now that Xiao Lin and Jing Ning are about to get married, the emperor sent a young and beautiful woman to the general's mansion at this time, anyone with a discerning eye can see what it is thinking.

On the one hand, this woman is the emperor's eyeliner planted in the general's mansion, to let Father Xiao know that your every move is under my control, and those little nines in my heart should not have 9000 million; on the other hand, this woman must follow Xiao Lin, Jing Ning has not yet entered the gate of the General's Mansion, but Xiao Lin has another woman. Isn't this clearly causing a estrangement between the two children?
"General Xiao." The woman strolled up to Father Xiao and saluted.

"Miss, please get up." The gloom on Xiao's father's face was replaced by a smile.

"General, this is a gift from the emperor to Young Master Xiao." The father-in-law laughed.

"May I ask the girl's name..." Although Xiao's father was not happy, he knew that this girl was from the emperor, so he couldn't keep a straight face.

"Wan Xi." Wan Xi answered.

"Since the person has been delivered, the slave will leave." The father-in-law bowed to Xiao's father and then left. The maid who was standing beside the carriage also walked to Wanxi's side at this time, waiting respectfully.

Father Xiao sighed in his heart, and looked up at Wanxi, Xiao Lin was definitely unwilling to accept this child.

Because Xiao Yuan knew that Xiao Lin was going to marry Jing Ning soon, she was extremely excited. She was still planning to be with Jing Ning every day after Jing Ning married into the General's Mansion. What would the two of them do.

"Miss, miss, it's not good." Xiao Yuan frowned displeased, Sui Xi was flustered because something happened.

"What's the matter?" Xiao Yuan asked casually, looking at Sui Xi who came in with a panicked face.

Sui Xi panted for a while, then took a deep breath, "Miss, it's not good, the emperor just... the emperor just sent a woman to the mansion, saying it was for the young master..."

Xiao Yuan was taken aback, and jumped off the imperial concubine chair, "Give me a woman?" She stared at Sui Xi in disbelief, "Why did the emperor send my brother a woman? Isn't my brother going to marry Jing Ning soon?" ?”

Sui Xi shook her head, shrunk her head in fear, "I don't know, I don't know."

Xiao Yuan hurriedly ran out of the house, her mind was in a mess, how sad Jing Ning would be if that woman really stayed by her brother's side in the future.
