Chapter 635: Harmony (7)
The second princess was so scared that she lost her mind, but Concubine Zhang was not stupid, she shook her head and said, "The third princess is only ten years old, and it is impossible for your father to send her to the marriage." The only princess, really only the second princess, Hao Xue. If the matter of marriage is really settled, I'm afraid... Thinking of this, Concubine Zhang is also scared for a while.
"Mother concubine!" The tears in the eyes of the second princess couldn't be restrained, and she choked, "If you let your daughter go to kiss, it might as well... it might as well give her a white silk!" She leaned on Concubine Zhang. , burst into tears.
Concubine Zhang was so distressed by the crying of the second princess that she patted her daughter's back and said softly: "Haoxue, don't cry. Listen to the concubine, firstly, the matter of marriage has not been finalized; secondly, As long as the emperor has not issued an decree for a day, there is still room to turn around."
The second princess wiped the tears on her face and the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, choked and asked: "Mother, what should I do?...I, I..." The second princess struggled for a while, blushing and gritted her teeth, " Concubine Mu, in fact, I actually like Xiao Yi, I don't want to marry or marry anyone else, Concubine Mu..." After all, she was only fourteen years old, she was so embarrassed that her face was about to burn, biting her. She bit her lip and said no more.
Xiao Yi, the prince of Zhennan? ! Concubine Zhang was stunned for a while, and she couldn't help but remember that she had heard the emperor mention that she wanted the princess, the prince of Zhennan, but at that time, Concubine Zhang didn't think about the second princess at all. I am willing to send my daughter to suffer in that kind of place, and besides, the Southern Border Tiangao Emperor is far away, I am afraid that my daughter has been wronged, and there is nothing to say!
But now compared with the relatives, Zhennan Wangfu is a pretty good choice. After all, Zhennan Wang is also a vassal king, and he holds military power... In the future, her third prince will win the heir, if she can get the support of Zhennan Wangfu, That would be a pretty powerful boost too!
The more she thought about it, the more Concubine Zhang felt that the Prince of Zhennan was a good candidate, she thought for a while, and then she made up her mind.
Concubine Zhang took the handkerchief from the second princess' hand, carefully wiped away the remaining tears on her face, and said softly, "Haoxue, don't worry, concubine mother will definitely find a way to help her before your father's decree and kiss. You have obtained the imperial edict of marriage."
Ever since she was a child, Concubine Zhang has never made a blunder about what the second princess promised! When the second princess heard this, she burst into laughter, and a bright smile bloomed on her charming little face, which was indescribably beautiful.
"Mother, thank you!" the second princess said coquettishly.
Concubine Zhang's expression gradually became serious. If you want to get married, you still need to plan carefully. Where should you start? Her eyes flashed, and she suddenly remembered something. It seemed that when she went to greet the Queen Mother three days ago, Princess Yuncheng happened to be there, and she also mentioned this year's feast...
Concubine Zhang also knew that Yuncheng's feast was a must-attend event for unmarried children of noble families and girls in the capital, which meant that Xiao Yi, the prince of Zhennan, must have also received the feast.
"Haoxue, on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, your aunt in Yuncheng will hold a feast, why don't you go too?" Concubine Zhang thoughtfully suggested, "Mother concubine will think of a way to ask your father to go too, when the time comes , let's find another opportunity to ask your father to marry you!... As for what to do, the mother and concubine will discuss with your brother later, and you will definitely get your wish!" Her pair of red phoenix eyes were like stars, and the corners of her mouth were slightly hooked, It looks charming.
...
Three days later, the emperor finally made a decision to marry Xirong in the morning.
In just a few days, the news spread like the wind among some aristocratic families, and even Jiang Yixi couldn't help but mention this topic when he was looking for Nangong Yue for tea, and he sighed endlessly.
"Sister Yue, I heard that Xirong has already agreed to Dayu's request. According to my father, Xirong will send envoys to welcome the princess back..."
Nangong Yue was shocked when she heard the words. In her previous life, Dayu didn't have a relationship with Xi Rong. At that time, the person who had a relationship with Dayu was clearly Chang Di, and the object of the relationship was Jiang Yixi!
Thinking of this, Nangong Yue looked at Jiang Yixi with complicated eyes.
Seeing that Nangong Yue's expression was a little different, Jiang Yixi hurriedly asked, "Sister Yue, are you alright?"
Nangong Yue finally came back to her senses, smiled reluctantly, and said, "Sister Xi, I'm fine, I'm just shocked to hear this news." After a while, she thought of something and asked, "I don't know who I am with relatives. Have you made a choice?"
"There are only the second princesses in the palace now." Jiang Yixi sighed and said, "When the courtiers mentioned it in the court, the emperor did not refute it. Although there is no official decree, I am afraid it will not change. "Speaking of this, she said with a little pity, "I heard that the one who is close to Da Yuhe is not the Prince of Xirong or the prince, but the current King of Xirong. He is in his fifties this year. The Queen of Xirong is still here, even if the second princess is the princess, she can only be a concubine when she married. The princess of a country is a concubine, it is really..."
Second princess? Nangong Yue couldn't help but pondered, she vaguely remembered that it seemed that in her previous life, the first person to be married to Chang Di was rumored to be the second princess, but in the end, somehow, she became Jiang Yixi...
Nangong Yue couldn't help shivering, and an idea couldn't help but pop up in her mind...
In the previous life, Jiang Yixi was married to Prince Changdi, the Crown Princess, and later Queen Changdi. But now, if you marry Xirong... that would be worse than the previous life!
Nangong Yue was a little worried and asked tentatively, "Sister Xi, if the second princess is not willing, will the emperor choose someone else?"
Jiang Yixi thought about it for a while, and said uncertainly, "If the emperor is reluctant to bear the second princess, it is very likely that he will choose one of the royal clansmen and make him a princess." This kind of thing has been common since the previous dynasty.
Nangong Yue's expression became more and more solemn, as if she was afraid of scaring her, she asked cautiously, "What if this is not chosen from the royal family, but from the princes and ministers?"
"Probably not..." Jiang Yixi frowned, "If this is chosen among princes and ministers, it is very likely to be chosen from a relative or a prince's family..." Jiang Yixi seemed to have thought of something, and her face stiffened. , I couldn't sit still for a while. "No, I have to go back quickly and let my dad and the others pay attention."
Jiang Yixi left in a hurry, but Nangong Yue's mood could not be calm for a long time.
cuckoo
The western wall clock on the wall sounded the time, and Nangong Yue subconsciously turned her head and glanced at it, only to see that the wall clock shaped like a small wooden house opened the window, and a lively wooden bird emerged, chirping briskly.
The crisp chirping sound made Nangong Yue think of the person who put the Western wall clock on her dresser, and her eyebrows widened.
Before the emperor's decree was made, Jiang Yixi was also vigilant. He would definitely not become a substitute for the second princess like the previous life, a victim of imperial power, and finally marry Xirong...
