Blissful Days After Widowhood Chapter 150: Golden Palace chooses a son-in-law

After the prince went back and told the emperor about this, the emperor frowned and thought: "You said that the Dayue princess changed her tone when she saw the fifth child, and also proposed to choose a son-in-law herself, it seems that she It's the fifth!"

The prince said: "It's just that according to the ministers, the fifth brother is bound to be unwilling to agree."

The emperor nodded: "This child has been stubborn since he was a child, and now he is determined to marry that folk woman. What do you think about this?"

The prince thought for a while and said: "Erchen thought that marriage matters should not be played with children, and the fifth brother was just impulsive at this time, and did not carefully consider the inappropriateness of this matter. As an elder brother, Erchen has the responsibility to persuade the fifth brother. However, if the fifth brother must go his own way, the son and minister implore the father and the emperor not to force too much. After all, there is a folk saying that a melon that is forced is not sweet. If the fifth brother is really unwilling to take the Dayue princess, then we don't need to. For this, I have wronged the fifth brother."

"Okay!" The emperor gave a high-five, "You are kind-hearted, but your biggest drawback is that you are too timid and indecisive. It is really rare to have such courage for your fifth brother now. That's it. , I can promise Princess Dayue, but for the woman Yu Er likes, I will also give her a chance to fight."

Speaking of Ningxi, the emperor's feelings are a bit complicated. Seeing her always reminds her of the water-like girl he met in the Jiangnan area when he went out on patrol in micro clothes.

At that time, he was not the Supreme Being of Ninety-five, but a prince who had a good chance of being selected as the crown prince. At that time, he went to Jiangnan to run an errand. After finishing the job, he dressed up as an ordinary scholar to travel around the mountains and waters. By chance, he met a girl from an ordinary merchant family. The young man with strong blood and the gentle girl fell in love at first sight. When the love was strong, he did have such an idea for a moment, and simply gave up the position of the prince that was at his fingertips. , Since then, she has been incognito, and she has been with this woman for the rest of her life.

But in the end, the woman inevitably knew his identity. At that time, he said: "You go back with me, I will not marry the daughter of the left minister, and I will not take the crown prince position. Let's go back and ask the father and the emperor. Promise us to marry."

But she didn't even want to fight for it, so she left him decisively, even cutting her hair to become a nun.

That day, my fifth child was holding Ning Xi's hand and knelt in front of him. The emperor suddenly felt a little dazed. He vaguely seemed to see himself kneeling there holding the woman's hand. Bring her back, what will happen?

In the end, he still hates her a little bit, and hates her for not even giving him this chance.

So this time, he wanted to see how far they could go if given a chance.

Thinking of this, the emperor said to the crown prince: "Three days later, call all the princes and all unmarried men over the age of 18 and under the age of 30 in the families of officials of the second rank and above, let's come to a golden palace to choose a son-in-law."

"Golden Palace chooses a son-in-law?" The prince's eyes widened.

The emperor laughed and said: "The palace has been too dull recently, and your grandmother is not very healthy. It's better to make some fun to make him happy! Pass my will, and then let the ladies of the harem also have family members. Come and watch."

"Yes!" The prince bowed his hands, hoping that the surprise prepared by the emperor for the queen mother would not turn into a fright.

Three days passed in a flash, and soon it was the day when the princess of the Dayue Kingdom, the Golden Palace, chose her son-in-law.

The harem that has been silent for a long time is as lively as a festival. Everyone is dressed in colorful flowers and bustling to the place on the Golden Palace that is specially separated by a bead curtain. Curiously, they look out through the bead curtain to see that How did the deviant Princess of the Kingdom of Viet Nam choose her son-in-law?

In addition to the queen, there is also Wu Shiqing, who should be still on the ground. This Wu Shiqing is also amazing. In just three days, she was able to win the favor of the queen mother again, and not only relieved her She is also allowed to join in the fun today.

Except for the group of women separated by the beaded curtain, it was also very lively outside the curtain. When they heard the news of the son-in-law, this group of young men and boys who were brought in to be selected by others can be described as happy and sad.

Because there was a riot in the capital before, Princess Xia Bo's reputation is not very good. In the minds of these officials' children, Princess Xia Bo is a arrogant and domineering woman, most of whom are from noble families. Men are not willing to marry such women and go home, only some want to cling to, but they want to take advantage of this opportunity to show it well.

Whether they were forced or willing to come here, the moment Princess Xia Bo came out, the entire hall was quiet for a moment, and suddenly it was like a stone thrown into the water, first ripples appeared, and then the water waves circled the ground Expanding, the whispering voice made the hall quickly boil.

It turned out that Princess Xia Bo was so beautiful, she was wearing a bright red riding suit, with simple lines outlining her exquisite figure, her long black hair was braided into dozens of small braids, and the ends of the braids were Adorned with shiny pearls of uniform size, her complexion is snow-white and delicate, her nose is high and her eyes are deep, and her eyes seem to be hiding two blue lakes, which is faintly breathtaking.

Many people here have only heard of Princess Xia Bo's name, but have never seen her. When they saw her, they were all excited. People who were originally interesting were more like picking up treasures. Marrying such a stunning beauty, even if she has a bad temper and a bad personality, it is still a pleasure! And those who were originally unwilling, were also a little shaken at this time.

Especially the second prince, who was completely silent after the last Seven Sacred Religion incident, depressed and self-sacrificing eating and drinking. Under his fat chest, a fiery heart is beating "bang bang". If he can really marry the princess of the Dayue Kingdom, with the support of the Dayue Kingdom, will he have another chance to compete with the prince?

Since it's the election of a son-in-law, the men naturally have to perform well in order to gain the favor of Princess Dayue. The emperor is not too concerned to watch the fun and ordered everyone to take turns to show their talents. Of course, the princes do not need it. , they just have to sit in the front while drinking and making comments.

The people who want to participate in the exhibition are the men from the families of officials of the second rank and above. Most of them are well-mannered scholars. Some of them recite poetry and write on the spot. Some of them are painting on the spot, but these Princess Xia Bo have no interest at all. Look She couldn't help yawning, and her beautiful blue eyes looked around boredly, occasionally glancing at Jun Qianyu, who was sitting on top of it, hoping that the scene would end soon, so that she could propose to the emperor to marry him. Jun Qianyu's request.

Wu Shiqing behind the bead curtain has always been paying attention to Princess Xia Bo. She has always regarded herself very highly and believes that when it comes to beauty, Wu Shiqing is naturally unparalleled in the world. Princess Bo, her beauty is not inferior to her at all, and she can gather all the best men in the capital here for her to choose, but what about herself? In order to get an ideal marriage, I have to please the Queen Mother, an old woman who exudes a decadent aura.

Wu Shiqing became angrier the more she thought about it, her whole body trembling with envy.

Especially when she saw the clear intention of the other party's eyes, she was so angry that she was going crazy. Why should she ask for it, and this woman can ask so openly.

Wu Shiqing pinched herself hard, barely keeping her composure, took a few steps back quietly, beckoned to the maid behind her, and asked in a low voice, "Is what I want ready?"

The maid also answered in an almost inaudible voice: "It's ready."

At this time, Princess Xia Bo was suddenly attracted by a man who came onto the stage. This man was tall and had long legs. He was extremely tall. He was wearing a black suit, and his strong muscles seemed to be in the thin The underside of the shirt is about to come out, but it doesn't look rough, but very flexible and agile.

A face is also very attractive. Although it is not as beautiful and delicate as Jun Qianyu, there is another kind of refreshing and good-looking like the bright moon and breeze, and it has its own vigor.

This man is performing a set of sword dances, which is different from the invisible and powerless sword dances of ordinary women. This man's sword dance carries a sonorous and powerful momentum, as if bringing the thunder of the battlefield to the hall. Let the hall be filled with Xiao Sha heroic aura.

Seeing that Princess Xia Bo's eyes widened, she couldn't help but sighed in a low voice: "This is true masculinity!" This is the second time Princess Xia Bo saw in Da Zhou that could make her Heartbroken man.

Seeing this scene, Jun Qianyu nodded with satisfaction.

This man's surname is Xiao Mingxia. He used to be a fierce general under his command. Back then, Jun Qianyu had saved his life. He once swore an oath that as long as King Yu ordered him, Xiao Mingxia would definitely go through fire and water. die.

Jun Qianyu asked people to inquire about Princess Xia Bo's preferences, and found that she has two characteristics, one is a love of food, and the other is an advocacy of force. resistance.

And this Xiao Mingxia was originally an inconspicuous son of a side branch of the Jingguo Palace. Because he fought the enemy bravely on the battlefield and made a lot of military exploits, he is now named the fourth-rank Zhenbei Hou, and he is only twenty years old. There are four, not yet married, is young and promising, and the future is promising, and the allocation of Princess Xia Bo to the affiliated country is not a humiliation to her.

More coincidentally, Xiao Mingxia's residence is now at the junction of Da Zhou and Da Yue. I believe that if Princess Xia Bo marries him, it will definitely promote the peace of the border between the two places. The King of Dayue will be dissatisfied with this, but this person was chosen by the princess herself, and they have nothing to say.

The more Jun Qianyu thought about it, the more he felt that he was playing this abacus well. As for whether General Xiao likes Princess Xia Bo, is she afraid that he can't deal with such a simple, rude and beautiful woman?
