Chapter 297 Go, don’t make me look down on you
On the last night of spring hunting, a bonfire feast was held.
All the ministers and their families attended the table.
Before the sky darkened, the empress arrived late.
Everyone knelt down and greeted each other respectfully.
Emperor Xiao glanced around with a smile, but he was not lacking in majesty. After he took his seat, everyone got up and returned to their seats.
Eunuch Ying was ordered to count the prey. Before leaving, his gaze inadvertently met Ji Teng who was wearing a four-claw python robe.
Soon they staggered again.
When it was cleared that Ji Zhuang was better than Ji Teng, Eunuch Ying gave a slap in the face as he recorded the roster. He suddenly raised his voice, seemingly inadvertently: "Where did the wild wolf that His Royal Highness hunted last night go?"
There are quite a few princes who are good at riding and shooting in the hunting ground this time, but no one dares to show off. Naturally, it will be a secret fight between the two princes in the end.
The little father-in-law who was guarding the prey was a stupid one. He didn't understand, so he hurriedly said: "Elder-in-law, you misremembered. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has never hunted wild wolves. The little one guarding here will never make mistakes."
Eunuch Ying raised his eyelids: "That's what it is."
The little **** followed his line of sight and looked over.
"That was shot by the son of the admiral's mansion."
Eunuch Ying picked up a pen and blatantly recorded the wild wolf under Ji Teng's name.
When the little **** saw this, panic flashed in his eyes. He didn't dare to breathe. The next moment, Eunuch Ying patted his face again: "You know what to say?"
The little **** trembled, and quickly plopped down on the ground: "The prince is the heir apparent, and in the future the whole world will belong to the prince, so this wild wolf will only belong to the prince."
This way,
Concubine Jing smiled softly: "I don't know which family will win the top prize this time. The emperor wants to reward him."
Ji Shimin, who had always been at odds with her, suddenly answered the call.
"Father, my son guessed that Xu is Xie Shizi."
After saying this, she held back her reserve and glanced at Xie Xun's position.
"Emperor." Empress Dowager Mu saw it, and suddenly said.
"Xiao Wu recuperated from illness outside the palace in the early years, and the marriage had to be postponed again and again. He has not yet married. You, a father, should be more careful."
She didn't mention Xie Xun a word, but it seemed that she was mentioning Xie Xun every word.
Eidi smiled: "Yes. Everything is under the mother's command."
"That's right, I know you love Xiao Wu, but you can't keep her in the palace forever."
Empress Dowager Mu suddenly turned her head to the side of the queen and said: "The emperor is hard to avoid being negligent when he is diligent in government affairs. You are the master of the six palaces, so you should handle it properly."
"Xiao Wu, if you have someone you like, you have to tell the Ai family, and the Ai family will make the decision for you. You are a princess, which family will not agree."
Ji Shimin hid her joy: "Yes."
After all, the royal family has made progress. I can no longer play the trick of giving marriage. After all, those things before, hurt the bones. I'm afraid that something good or bad will happen.
This time, although Xie Xun handed over his military power, the prestige he has accumulated over the years is no less than that of Cui Bai back then.
How satisfied is the emperor.
But even so, it was enough for Xie Xun to eat a pot. At least, the royal family put their minds on it and handed out an olive branch. It was Xie Xun who deliberately avoided it, and has repeatedly pretended to be stunned so far. But who else dares to marry their daughter into Fuguo Duke's Mansion?
Admiral Yan's eyes flashed, and he yelled badly. He looked at the person sitting in the seat next to him, hesitated for a while and finally couldn't hold back and said in a low voice: "Ah Xun, you are already weak, so you should settle the marriage earlier, so as not to cause complications."
Xie Xun's attitude is always gentle. What he said was merciless.
"Admiral Yan should be as intimacy as Mo Ming said. It is not your turn to intervene in the matter of Fuguo Duke's Mansion."
These words made Admiral Yan's face turn pale: "But you are not afraid..."
Xie Xun didn't want to listen any more, and turned his head to talk to Xie Yining.
Admiral Yan stopped talking in a daze, but his expression turned lonely.
The admiral's wife saw it in her eyes, and her heart was extremely unhappy: "My master has taken care of the past, and I kindly remind you, has the Xie family ever appreciated it?"
"Could it be that back then—"
Admiral Yan reprimanded: "Shut up."
The voices of the husband and wife are very low. But it completely fell into Yan Mi's ears.
Yan Mi lowered her head, hurriedly went to drink the scalding hot water. But he couldn't get rid of the cold on his body.
The old accounts between the Fuguo Duke's Mansion and the Admiral's Mansion can't be cleared up no matter what. She could marry anyone, but she couldn't get into Xie's family.
It won't be him around, so... the Wei family is also fine.
Looking at the eyes that fell on Xie Xun, they followed each other closely. Shen Hua was furious. The hands under the sleeves trembled under restraint.
"What's wrong with you?" Cui Rong sensed that she was wrong.
Shen Hua: "Pull me."
"ah?"
Nv Niang Youyou: "I'm afraid I can't help but run forward and make this **** old woman red."
Cui Rong's eyes lit up: "Then why are you hesitating? Go! I've seen her upset for a long time."
"This kind of good thing, why am I pulling you?"
"Go, don't make me look down on you."
Cui Rong was so happy that she even shook the **** on her head.
Shen Hua sneered. Looking up, I saw Xie Xun's comforting eyes.
He shook his head slightly at her.
Shen Hua immediately withered.
Fortunately, at this time, the father-in-law should return and present something respectfully.
Emperor Huang was scheming, and quickly pushed aside the pressure released by Empress Dowager Mu. It seems that the royal family never persecutes people.
"I will take care of Xiao Wu's matter."
"It's not just Min'er. It's time for the prince and the fourth son to add people to the house."
The queen heard the words, and quickly got up to bless her body: "Yes, my concubine, please remember."
These three or two sentences of dialogue made all the ministers think a thousand times. I can't wait to introduce the daughter-in-law of the family to recommend herself.
Wei Zhuzhu immediately sat up straight.
She deliberately showed her best side face.
If she becomes a member of the prince or the fourth prince's house, what is Wei Yingying, the third prince's concubine?
Even people like Shen Wei would kneel respectfully when they saw her!
Ji Fan sat quietly on the seat from the very beginning. Hearing this, I really panicked.
He is complaining to the emperor after all.
Right now, she has already married a wife and had children. But the second brother's marriage has not yet been settled. Emperor Xi probably forgot.
He still remembers.
Before leaving the palace, Ji Cong, who was taller than Ji Wang, hugged his arm, crying and twitching: "Fourth brother, why didn't Father Chun Lie let me go? Did he think I was ashamed?"
"I'm not stupid."
But Ji Huang remembered that the young Ji Cong had sat in front of his couch and patted her on the back before the accident happened. Obviously not older than how old he is, but he looks like an older brother
—Ah Wan, look at how scared you are, isn’t it just a nightmare, it’s all fake, brother Huang is here.
His second brother, if nothing happened, he would be brilliant!
And all of this was caused by Dong Gong!
Father has chosen to pretend to be a fool until now.
Even thought of setting up a side concubine for her. But he never thought about Ji Cong at all.
