Chapter 430 Soft Knife
Empress Qin watched the two leave, and her face sank a little.
Although the prince seemed to be more submissive than before, she could clearly feel that the prince was becoming more and more difficult to control.
Now he not only has a reputation among the people, but also controls Chenliujun in his hands.
He is no longer the third prince who couldn't protect himself and could only rely on her.
The Jiaofang Hall was extremely silent, and no one dared to make a sound, for fear of disturbing Empress Qin's contemplation.
At this time, Quartz walked in quickly and knelt down to salute.
"Report to the empress, the king of Xiling has entered the palace, and the emperor is meeting him."
Empress Qin's expression changed slightly, but soon returned to normal.
She answered lightly, "Yeah."
He didn't say much, as if he didn't take it to heart.
...
After leaving the Jiaofang Palace, Luo Yechen breathed a sigh of relief immediately, feeling a sense of relief.
The depressing atmosphere just now almost didn't suffocate him to death.
He turned his head to look at the prince beside him, and deliberately asked strangely, "Don't you have a good relationship with the queen? Why didn't you give her any face just now? You're not afraid to annoy her?"
Luo Qinghan asked back: "Isn't Gu always talking to her? Why did Gu never give her face?"
Luo Yechen choked.
Yes, the prince did behave very respectfully just now, and there was no sign of contradicting the queen.
But he gave the impression that he didn't take the Queen's words to heart at all.
Compared to confrontation, this kind of soft knife is more heartbreaking!
Luo Yechen really didn't know how to evaluate it, so he just didn't say it. Anyway, these things had nothing to do with him.
The two parted ways.
Luo Qinghan returned to the East Palace.
Luo Yechen went to Yaohua Palace where Concubine Hui was located.
As soon as Concubine Hui learned that her precious son was canonized as the King of England, she was overjoyed when she saw her son coming, and immediately burst into laughter.
"Son, come over and let your mother take a good look at you."
Luo Yechen said awkwardly: "What is there to see? It's not that I haven't seen it."
Concubine Hui: "You've been out for so long, and I miss you all day long. I'm afraid that you won't be able to eat and wear warmly outside, so I finally want you back. Of course, I want to take a good look at you."
She took her son to look up and down, full of pity.
From the emperor's point of view, the eldest prince has gained a lot of knowledge outside, but from Concubine Hui's point of view, her son has suffered a lot outside.
"Look at how you are, you've lost a lot of weight, and you've gotten a lot darker. When I look back, I'll have someone send you some supplements, so you can make up for it. I heard that the prince was almost harmed when he was in Chenliu County. Have you been implicated? Those traitors didn't do anything to you, did they?"
Luo Yechen raised his head and raised his chest: "I am the dignified eldest prince, how dare those younger generation dare to do something to me?!"
Concubine Hui liked to see her son look so confident and calm.
Someone like her son will definitely be a great person in the future!
Luo Yechen talked about his purpose this time.
"Mother, I have something very important to tell you."
Concubine Hui: "What's the matter?"
Luo Yechen: "I want to marry Xie Chuxue as the concubine."
Concubine Hui quickly went through it in her mind, but did not find a person named Xie Chuxue in the noble girl in Beijing.
She couldn't help but get nervous: "Son, don't you think you're a commoner girl from outside? That's not good, you're a dignified eldest prince, and your status is extremely noble. How can you marry someone from a humble background? What about the commoner women?!”
Luo Yechen: "Xie Chuxue is not a commoner. She is the adopted daughter of King Xiling. She was originally the niece of Princess Xiling, but she was adopted by King Xiling. She is a noble daughter of a noble family."
After hearing what he said, Concubine Hui immediately felt relieved, and then began to make plans in her heart.
From the perspective of family background alone, Xie Chuxue and Luo Yechen are a good match.
But Concubine Hui brought a three-meter-thick filter to her son. In her opinion, her son is very good. Even if Xie Chuxue was from a good background, it did not mean that Xie Chuxue was worthy of her son.
Concubine Hui said: "Don't worry, I know this in my heart, and I will definitely help you get it done."
She planned to ask people to inquire about Xie Chuxue and the Xiling Palace first, and then invite Xie Chuxue into the palace to see in person.
She had to investigate clearly and make sure that Xie Chuxue was indeed excellent in all aspects, before she could agree to the marriage between her son and Xie Chuxue.
Concubine Hui's background is not very good.
She was originally a merchant girl and was elected to the palace as a palace maid.
At that time, the emperor was just an ordinary sixth prince, and Concubine Hui was also lucky. After following him, she soon became pregnant and gave birth to the eldest son, Luo Yechen.
Later, when the emperor ascended the throne, Concubine Hui was registered as a concubine by virtue of her credit for giving birth to the eldest son.
Even though she is old now and her color is not as bright as those young concubines who have recently entered the palace, the emperor still misses her, and there are always one or two days a month where she spends the night at Concubine Hui.
Concubine Hui also helped her mother's family to win the emperor's business. Now her mother's family bears the title of emperor's merchant, and the business is booming.
It was precisely because Concubine Hui's family was wealthy that Luo Yechen's wealthy and wealthy character developed.
After Luo Yechen finished talking about the marriage, he received a box full of silver notes from Concubine Hui.
Money dilutes Luo Yechen's unhappiness.
He went out of the palace, summoned Qi Hu Peng Gou friends, and continued to eat, drink and have fun.
Luo Yechen is not someone who can hide things in his heart. After drinking two more drinks with his friends, he used the strength of the wine to start bragging to his friends, saying how heroic he behaved in Chenliu County, so that he would like to know how to do it. One enemy, a thousand, beat the enemy's shit, let the enemy be afraid of him!
Later, he talked about Xie Chuxue again.
He first praised Xie Chuxue so much that she was like a beautiful little fairy in the world!
He also announced in public that he would soon marry this fairy home!
After he finished speaking, he forgot about it, and fell asleep when he got home.
But he didn't know that those fox friends turned around and spread the words he said.
...
The concubines of the East Palace were very excited when they learned that the prince had returned.
They haven't seen the prince for half a year, and they miss him very much.
The concubines deliberately dressed themselves up from head to toe, and rushed to Mingguang Palace for reasons such as sending soup/cakes/copying scriptures/copying pictures.
The prince is on official business at the moment.
He had been away from Shengjing for too long, and the backlog of files in the Ministry of Punishment was overwhelming.
Knowing that the concubines were coming, the prince didn't even raise his head, he was indifferent.
"No time, no see."
