Chapter 326, It's going to rain
The king of Rong Jun asked the emperor to let Chu Yao marry Princess Beiyan, which not only chilled Chu Yao's heart, but also made Chu Xuan, the son of the prince of the county, sneer again and again.
In the private room of the Millennium Building, the prince sighed and looked at the silent Chu Xuan: "Gu's original plan was to let you take over the supervisory department. Who would have thought that King Rong would prefer Chu Xuan."
Chu Xuan sneered: "In my father's heart, he only has one son, and that is Chu Zhao. If my grandparents didn't love me, I might end up worse than Chu Yao."
He fully believed that without the insistence of his grandparents, the title of son would not have fallen to him.
The relationship in Prince Rong's Mansion is indeed a bit complicated, and the crown prince can't say much.
Chu Xuan continued to sneer: "Father has a good plan, but unfortunately, Chu Yao may not listen to him, no, no, maybe, he will definitely not listen, that guy is full of rebellion."
As he spoke, he looked at the prince.
"Your Highness, don't think that if you invite my father, you can control Chu Yao. It's a joke that the parents' orders are with Chu Yao."
The crown prince smiled and said, "Chu Yao has been in charge of the special supervision department quietly for more than ten years. Of course Gu will not underestimate him, and he also understands that the emperor actually attaches great importance to him."
"However, compared with the truce between the two countries, a Chu Yao is nothing."
"Right now the news that Chu Yao is asking to marry Princess Beiyan has spread. In order to facilitate the negotiation, Da Chu has to take into account the face of Beiyan's royal family. Under such circumstances, Chu Yao has to marry if he doesn't want to. It's up to him whether he wants to or not. "
Hearing these words, Chu Xuan didn't have much joy on his face. Thinking of Chu Yao's younger brother, a complex look flashed in his eyes.
After chatting with the prince for a while, Chu Xuan went back to Prince Rong's mansion.
Although Prince Rong has long passed the title to King Rong Jun, but because Prince Rong is still there, the specifications of the palace are still those of the prince.
After Chu Xuan returned to the palace, he was called to the Rongxin Hall where the old prince and concubine lived.
"Grandmother."
Old Princess Rong saw Chu Xuan enter the room, and immediately showed a smile on her face: "Xuan'er, the buyer sent some new gadgets over, come and see if you like it?"
Chu Xuan looked at the calligraphy, paintings, ornaments, etc. that the maidservant was arranging, chose two at random, and then sat down in a moody mood: "Grandmother called grandson over, but is there something wrong?"
The old concubine looked at her grandson's face, waved her hand, and signaled the maid in the room to back down, and then looked at Chu Xuan: "Your father wants Zhao'er to take over the Supervision Department because of his consideration."
"You will inherit the title of the palace in the future, but Zhao'er can't, so your father has to think more about him, you can't dislike your father because of this, your father still values you in his heart. "
Chu Xuan lowered his head, a sneer curled up at the corner of his mouth, and he pursed his lips without responding.
He might have looked forward to the importance of his biological father when he was a child, but now he doesn't care anymore.
Seeing that her grandson didn't speak, the old concubine sighed: "Xuan'er, grandma knows you are a good boy, and generally understands how to behave properly. Before your father entered the palace, he discussed it with me and your grandfather."
"It was our unanimous decision to let Zhaoer take over the Supervision Department."
Chu Xuan looked up, puzzled eyes flashed: "Grandmother, I don't understand, if you do this, won't you be afraid that the rift between the third brother and the family will grow?"
The old concubine's complexion became a little bad: "You and Zhao'er can both hold high positions, but Yao'er can't."
Chu Xuan didn't understand: "Why?"
The old concubine sighed: "Brother Yao is rebellious, and always feels that the mansion has treated him badly. Look at what he does on weekdays. He treats the people in the mansion as enemies."
Speaking of this, the old concubine's face became gloomy, "As soon as he took over the Supervision Department, he began to take revenge on the family. He knew that Wen Guogong's mansion was my natal family, but he still exiled Zhuang Shilang into the army."
"If he dares to move the banker now, he will dare to move the palace in the future."
"Brother Yao has been a rebellious and unfilial **** since he was a child, but now he has become hard-hearted, even disregarding blood and family."
"The Supervision Department is another office that offends others. Yao'er is used to lawlessness. If he has been in charge of the Supervision Department, he may bring many disasters to the palace."
The old concubine looked at Chu Xuan: "Xuan'er, grandma just explained to you today."
"The future of the three of you brothers was discussed and arranged by your grandfather and me as early as when you were born."
"You are the eldest grandson, so naturally you will inherit the title of the palace. In the future, the entire palace will be yours."
"Where is Zhao'er, relying on the face of your grandfather and your father to find a job with real power and watch and help you."
"As for Brother Yao, with your two elder brothers around, you can just be a rich and idle person."
"You and Zhao'er are both good boys, and you grew up according to the arrangement of me and your grandfather from childhood to adulthood. Brother Yao made a mistake."
"Disrespecting the elders, disobedient to discipline, rebellious and unruly, selfish and narrow-minded, Brother Yao almost took over. The mansion doesn't ask him to win glory, but only asks him not to discredit the palace. Thank God."
"Now he has only passed the weak crown for less than two years. While he is not yet full-fledged, the mansion can still control him for a while. His marriage must conform to the interests of the entire palace."
The old concubine continued: "With brother Yao's temperament, marrying Princess Beiyan will prevent him from being in contact with power. This is the best for him and the palace."
Listening to these words, Chu Xuan didn't react at all, and he didn't have the slightest sympathy for Chu Yao in his heart, but why did he still feel a little uncomfortable?
Coming out of Rongxin Hall, Chu Xuan frowned and went back to her own courtyard. As soon as she entered the courtyard, she saw Crown Princess Luo Qilan.
The moment she saw Luo Qilan, a flash of light flashed across her mind, and Chu Xuan suddenly realized why he was feeling uncomfortable?
Because, their lives are all arranged, and their marriages are also chosen for them by the mansion.
Chu Xuan stood at the gate of the courtyard for more than a quarter of an hour. When he withdrew his thoughts and went into the study, looking at the Wangfu account book on the desk, he suddenly laughed and murmured:
"My good third brother, I have the favor of my grandfather and grandmother, and the second child has the favor of my father and king. Our marriages are all arranged by the mansion. Where do you have the confidence to think that you can choose your own family?"
"Sister Xiahou, I have encountered an urgent matter, you have to help me."
Gongsun Ming doesn't go out of the house very often, Shi Fuxin couldn't think of any way to get close to her, so she had to come to Xia Hou to cheer her up.
Xiahou Huanyan was a little puzzled. She had known Shi Fuxin for so long, and this was the first time she asked herself for help: "Tell me, what's the matter, as long as I can help, I will definitely help."
Shi Fuxin whispered in Xiahou Huanyan's ear: "The empress wants me to enter the East Palace."
Xiahou Huanyan's eyes widened when she heard this, her face was full of surprise.
Shi Fuxin took her arm and stomped her feet: "Before the news spreads, I have to find a husband's house for myself."
Xiahou Huanyan swallowed: "What do you want me to help you with?"
Shi Fuxin: "Help me hold some banquets, I want to get close to Gongsun Ming."
Xiahou Huanyan stared again: "Have you taken a fancy to Gongsun Ming?"
Shi Fuxin nodded: "Regardless of their identities, the Wei family is still standing behind the queen and the crown prince. Looking at the entire capital, that is, the Gongsun family, the Dongfang family, the Liu family, and your Xiahou family can compete with them."
"The Dongfang family is married to the sixth prince. I have already offended the Liu family. Your brothers have already married. Now only the Gongsun family is left to choose."
Xiahou Huanyan was silent: "Just two days ago, my concubine came to chat with me and said that she wanted to go for a walk in the suburbs. I will go and ask my concubine to see if I can hold a polo club in the suburbs in the next two days. From time to time, I will invite more young masters from honorable families, so please take a look."
When Shi Fuxin saw that Xiahou Huanyan agreed, she said gratefully, "Thank you."
Xiahou smiled happily: "I'm actually quite happy to be able to help you."
On April 16th, Prince Kung's Mansion held a polo club in the suburbs of Beijing. Not only did they invite all the sons and daughters of honorable nobles, but also many relatives of the royal family.
Severely injured by the Liu family before, Shi Fuxin had a bad reputation and would be criticized wherever she went. After that, the girl from the Shi family didn't want to go out with her anymore.
Yes, Shi Fuxin came to the polo club at Prince Gong's Mansion alone.
With a clear purpose, Shi Fuxin didn't care about all kinds of pointers from her surroundings. When she saw Gongsun Ming arrive, she was thinking about how to talk to him.
Xiahou Huanyan was very caring, seeing Gongsun Ming picking horses in the stable, she took Shi Fuxin to the stable, pretending to choose horses too, and threw out a conversation, so that Shi Fuxin and Gongsun Ming had a smooth conversation.
When he was at the border, Shi Dingxuan worked as an errand at the horse farm, and Shi Fuxin was well versed in it, and knew a little about horses. In terms of horse selection, he had a good chat with Gongsun Ming.
When Xiahou Huanyan went to receive other guests, Shi Fuxin generously invited Gongsun Ming to form a team to play polo.
Gong Sunming looked at Gu Panshenfei's unaffected Shi Fuxin, and he understood in his heart, as if he understood why Fan Mingyu fell in love with this girl in front of him.
Gongsun Ming responded with a smile, got on the horse, and saw Shi Fuxin galloping recklessly on the polo field, his heart fluttered.
The sixth girl from the Shi family is indeed dazzling enough!
"good!"
Shi Fuxin successfully scored a goal. Just as she smiled at Gongsunming, she heard a cheer from the stands. When she turned her head to look, the smile on her face disappeared completely.
Prince!
Why is he here? !
Shi Fuxin's good mood disappeared without a trace, but it didn't show on her face. She continued to finish the competition with Gongsun Ming.
The competition ended, Shi Fuxin and Gongsun Ming just got off their horses when the **** beside the prince came over.
"Miss Shi Liu, the prince welcomes you."
Shi Fuxin said calmly: "What a coincidence, I'm tired from playing, and I have to go back to rest."
Such a blunt refusal made the **** and Gongsun Ming somewhat astonished.
The weather in late spring changed its face as soon as it said it would. Just when Shi Fuxin handed the rope to Man Nu and was about to leave directly, a dark cloud floated over and shrouded the sky over the polo field.
