As soon as Mrs. Luo's banquet post was sent out, everyone understood what it meant. Those who had that intention told their sons to behave well when the time came.

The Chen family also received an invitation from the Duke of Wei.

Chen Shigao became anxious when he saw it.

"Mom, do you think I have made a lot of progress recently?"

Mrs. Chen nodded happily and said, "Yes! Thanks to Prince Ning for his improvement, he took care of you too."

Normally, Chen Shigao would definitely have argued that he had changed it himself, so what does it have to do with Prince Ning! But now he was not in the mood, so he asked after hearing this: "Mother, tell me, can Mrs. Wei Guogong like me?"

Mrs. Chen was surprised for a while, then she realized what her son meant and asked, "Have you taken a liking to the second young lady that the Duke of Wei recognized from outside?"

Chen Shigao didn't dare to be vague at this moment and nodded vigorously.

Mrs. Chen asked again: "You don't go out to cause trouble these days, and you even asked your father to arrange errands for you. Is it because of this girl?"

Chen Shigao continued to nod.

Mrs. Chen almost laughed out loud. If she could get her bastard son to change his ways, she would definitely work hard to facilitate this marriage.

However, after thinking about it, he still said to Chen Shigao: "The Duke of Wei's family has a high status. Although our family is a minister, your father is old and you are not motivated. The Duke of Wei may not be interested in you. You still have to work hard." That’s it.”

Chen Shigao said anxiously: "Mom, it's too late now!"

Mrs. Chen snorted: "I'm worried now that I can't get a wife!"

"While the banquet at Duke Wei's mansion has not yet been held, my mother will invite a matchmaker to come to our house to discuss marriage."

Chen Shigao said happily: "Thank you, mother."

Here Mrs. Luo sent Wei Wushuang to Huangjue Temple.

After returning home, he started preparing for the banquet in full swing, searching for the young men who had not yet decided to get married in various families in Beijing.

Then the housekeeper handed over a post from the Chen family.

Mrs. Luo asked curiously: "Our Duke of Wei and the Chen family have never had any contact. Why did Mrs. Chen come to see me?"

In the past few days, Lian Zhi, following Mrs. Luo, had a better understanding of the situation of various noble families in the capital. When he heard about it, he knew it was Chen Shigao's family.

It was a little strange for a moment, and he shook his head.

...

Every day in the court, the reports urging the emperor to draft were like snowflakes, floating to Chengqian Palace.

Shu Yuwan naturally heard the news.

But Shu Yuwan didn't intend to interfere. If she did, she could only agree. Otherwise, she would be jealous and unworthy, and the emperor could only refuse.

The emperor's response was also very simple, just ignore it.

No matter what officials in the DPRK said, he just ignored it.

If it is brought up in a court meeting, at first, he will find some excuses and respond to it. Later, he will just skip it and say: "Is there any other business to discuss?"

Gradually, courtiers no longer mentioned it in court meetings.

Wei Guogong was very disappointed for a while.

The eldest daughter is already ruined by waiting. If there is any further delay, I am afraid that my wife will not agree to let the younger daughter wait any longer.

The emperor is good at everything, but he is a little confused when it comes to women. Enriching the harem is not only a way to spread the branches, but also a way to calm people's hearts and maintain the stability of the court. The former harem is a mutual restriction, and he I really don’t understand what kind of ecstasy soup that Shu gave to the emperor, so that the emperor ignored the overall situation and insisted on doting on the queen.

Shu Yuwan smiled unconsciously after hearing this.

Qingdai said happily: "Your Majesty, if the emperor chooses the draft later, we can have some peace and quiet for a while."

Shu Yuwan nodded. She had never told anyone that the emperor wanted to be with her forever. Even close relatives such as Qingdai and Mrs. Shu never mentioned it.

Only when this kind of thing is buried can we know whether it will come true.

But now that the emperor has this intention, she will naturally cooperate well.

But I didn't expect that the ministers of the previous dynasty couldn't sway the emperor, so they turned to Shu Yuwan.

When the court ladies visited Shu Yuwan, they would often bring girls of the right age from their families, or even if they were not available, they would bring girls from close relatives, hoping to meet the emperor in the palace.

Although Shu Yuwan has a good temper, she is also very annoying.

Rumors spread from time to time in the court that the queen was jealous and beauty was a disaster.
