Emperor Xuanle nodded in satisfaction, but his tone of speech was a little helpless, "If it hadn't been for Chiton's rules, I would not be alienated from her children for so many years. Whenever I see the fifth child, it seems like Seeing slender dust..."
Ling Chuyao came out of the imperial palace and went directly back to the palace of Chu. When he saw Zhuge Linlang reading in the pavilion in the lake, he suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
"You seem to be particularly fond of reading recently."
Zhuge Linlang reached out and turned a page, and said, "It's okay to stay around in the house. Read more books to pass the time."
Unexpectedly, just saying that casually, Ling Chuyao felt a little bit more guilty.
He took Zhuge Linlang's hand on the stone table and said, "I made you wronged."
Zhuge Linlang raised her head in surprise, and saw Ling Chuyao's face full of guilt, and instantly understood the meaning of Ling Chuyao's words.
"I couldn't even think of such a day before, how could I be wronged?"
Ling Chu knew that this was Zhuge Linlang comforting himself, Zhuge Linlang should have a broader world, but because he could only be trapped in this place.
After all, Ling Chuyao was proud, even if he was facing Zhuge Linlang, he would not easily say some words, and would only use actions to compensate. Seeing Zhuge Linlang downplaying so lightly, he remembered her grievances in his heart and talked about her assassination in Xiangguo Temple before.
"Are you saying that the main envoys behind the scenes are King Xi and King Nan? But Concubine Xi went with me that day."
"Wang Xi’s father is just a general Huben from the third rank. She should have been climbing high, but the boss took a fancy to Lin Kui’s military strength. Anyway, the purpose of marrying her has been achieved. Does it matter whether a person is alive or not? "Ling Chuyao's expression was plain when he spoke, and it made people unable to see how turbulent the waves were in his words.
It was precisely because of Ling Chuyao's words that Zhuge Linlang understood that Ling Xiyao, who seemed to be gentle and handsome, was actually unscrupulous in order to achieve the goal.
The impression of him in my heart worsened.
Zhuge Linlang didn't want to talk about this. He kept his eyes on Ling Chuyao for a while, and asked narrowly, "Yuan Xi seems to have stopped a lot recently."
Ling Chuyao turned her back and squeezed her nose, and said, "Isn't she safe? It's unlucky for a woman like that."
During this period of time, Yuan Xi did feel a lot of peace. Of course, it was impossible for her not to approach Ling Chuyao, but Huang Guifei Yuan Ya now often summons her into the palace for her marriage, so she rarely has time to come to the Chu Palace.
Yuanxi is seventeen years old this year, and can't delay any longer.
But Yuan Xi was the only one in the scholar's residence besides Yuan Feng. As Yuan Xi's aunt, Yuan Ya had to take this matter over.
In Bixiao Palace, Yuan Ya leaned on the beauty couch, took out a set of scrolls in front of him, and asked, "There are so many brothers in the capital, don't you have a pleasing look?"
Yuan Xi said, "I will marry no one except Brother Chu Wang!"
Yuan Ya almost threw the table off the table when she heard this. Fortunately, she still remembered her identity, so she tried her best to restrain her and didn't have an attack on the spot.
"King Chu is what you can think of? Didn't you see that he even met Concubine Jing for his concubine? Do you want to rush to humiliate others if you don't want you?"
Yuan Xi was stabbed in the pain, and said loudly: "Where is that woman worthy of him? It's just a moment of fascinated by that woman. After a while, he will get bored."
Yuan Ya was trembling with anger. This niece got up and looked exactly like her dead brother. He was hated and powerless, but there was nothing he could do with her.
"After a while? Is it one year? Two years? Or three or four years? The years of your daughter's family are precious. Do you have to waste time on this person?"
Yuan Xi said, "I just like him anyway. I don't want to marry anyone other than him! If he doesn't want me, I will become a monk!"
Yuan Ya stood up all of a sudden, pointed at Yuan Xi and said, "You!"
Yuan Xi looked at Yuan Ya stubbornly, his face full of stubbornness.
Yuan Ya was angry, and slapped the beautiful face with a slap, "I don't know the shame."
With crisp applause in the empty hall, Yuan Xi stretched out his hand to cover his face, looking at the person who beat her in disbelief.
After a while she sneered: "Yes, I don't know shame, why don't you think about how you climbed onto the dragon bed? Are you qualified to teach me?"
Hearing this, Yuan Ya's face was red and blue, and finally closed his eyes and pointed at the door of the main hall: "You get out of the palace."
Yuan Xi was anxious, and stood up without saying a word.
Yuan Ya's breathing became heavier, looking at the stubborn back of his niece, regrets for a while.
"If it wasn't for my pity for her to take her to the palace and take care of her as a daughter when she grew up, and couldn't bear to feel the slightest sadness for her, how would she develop her temperament today? Sure enough, she is self-inflicted and cannot live. "
The mother on the side said: "Whatever the empress said, Miss Yuan is just because she is young and ignorant! In addition, for so many years, she can't ask the king of Chu for so long, so the empress can enlighten her."
Yuan Ya smiled bitterly, "My palace also thinks, look at her just now, she can even say that kind of thing, how should my palace take care of it?"
This mother, whose surname was Mo, was brought into the palace by Yuan Ya from home, and she knew the situation of the scholar's residence very well. Mother Mo saw that Yuan Ya was really angry, and walked forward to massage her brain.
"Don't be angry, mother, it will be bad if you get angry. Miss Yuan will have to rely on you in the future!"
"Mother, did you say I did something wrong?"
Madam Mo said: "The mother has a loving heart, and she will be able to experience it when she gets older."
"But Xi'er has never given up on King Chu. She is so old that she is about to become an old girl!"
Madam Mo said: "Miss Yuan is still young, and she will be relieved when she gets married."
"She hasn't changed her heart to King Chu now, when can she marry?" Yuan Ya was still worried.
Madam Mo looked at Yuan Ya with a bit of annoyance, "Why did the mother forget? Since ancient times, there is no girl who chooses her husband and son by herself. Isn't it all the words of the matchmaker at the order of her parents? Miss Yuan has no parents and was raised by her mother since she was a child. By your side, whoever thinks the empress is good, go to the emperor for grace, and you can get married directly."
After listening to Yuan Ya, he said, "But Xi'er is so stubborn, will the direct marriage cause her to rebound?"
"The emperor's gift to the marriage, even if she is dissatisfied, she can't resist the decree. When she talks with her future husband, Qin Se, she will be grateful to you."
When Yuan Ya thought about it, it was indeed the same. How could a woman who had not come out of the cabinet choose her husband and son-in-law on her own? After thinking about it this way, Yuan Ya recruited people to present the portraits of the middle-aged men in the capital and select them carefully.
After Yuanxi went out of the palace, when he passed Zhuque Street, he took a turn to Qinglong Street and stopped at a street corner to look at a house with carved beams and painted buildings.
