Chapter 413: Men should get married when

they are old enough This made Chu Shengrui feel a little regretful, especially when he occasionally saw ministers in the court having a very close father-son relationship and getting along with each other without any restraint, he would be very envious.

Therefore, among these extremely noble sons of the old city, only Chu Yunzhao could laugh and act coquettishly in front of him. On the contrary, he felt that there was some taste of folk human relationships in this palace.

Therefore, Chu Shengrui is very fond of Chu Yunzhao.

This was even more so at this time. When he heard him say this, he just reached out and tapped Chu Yunzhao on the forehead, "How can I not see you, you are so big?"

"Your Majesty, what you mean is that I have gained weight recently?" Chu Yunzhao still refused to give in.

"I'm not fat, I've just grown a little taller." Chu Shengrui replied with a smile, "I remember when I saw you and Jinnian before, Jinnian seemed to be taller than you, but now you two are about the same height."

"Of course. I am the elder brother after all. I cannot be shorter than my younger brother. It would be too embarrassing." Chu Yunzhao replied with a smile, "But it is probably due to my daily practice these days."

"Practicing martial arts to keep fit is certainly not a bad thing." Chu Shengrui said with a smile, reaching out and patting Chu Yunzhao on the shoulder.

It is indeed stronger than before.

"Just stop making trouble. You're causing your father to stand here and suffer." Concubine Hui said coquettishly, and reached out to help Chu Shengrui. "Your Majesty, please go in and talk."

Chu Shengrui placed his hand on the back of Concubine Hui's hand and nodded affectionately. After walking in, he saw that the food was still in the palace and asked with a smile, "Are you having lunch?"

"Yes, it's a little late, but it's almost used up. I'll order them to clear it now. Your Majesty, please move to Yinluxuan first." Concubine Hui said.

"It's okay. I haven't had lunch today, so I'll just eat some at your place. It happens that Yun Zhao and Jin Nian are here, and I haven't had lunch with them for a long time." Chu Shengrui said with a smile.

"Then I will order the kitchen to prepare a few more dishes." Concubine Hui smiled and said, "Make a few side dishes that the emperor likes to eat on a daily basis."

"In the past few days, there is some fresh food in the small kitchen brought back by Jinnian. Your Majesty has probably never seen it before. I think it tastes very good. Your Majesty, why not try it?"

"Okay." Chu Shengrui nodded.

Concubine Hui hurriedly ordered people to cook and also asked someone to buy a new set of bowls and chopsticks.

"Your Majesty, how come you have time to come to my palace today? I remember that your Majesty said yesterday that he had not visited the Empress in the past few days. Are you going to have lunch in the Empress's palace today?"

"I was going to go originally, but the Queen sent a message saying that the Princess of Qi suddenly came to the palace to pay her respects today. Also, I had to arrange for Yun He to take a concubine, so I felt a little tired, so I didn't want to disturb you. I just happened to remember that the lion's head made in your small kitchen last time was delicious, so I came here to eat." Chu Shengrui replied.

Chu Yunzhao and Chu Jinnian looked at each other.

Princess Luo of Qi entered the palace to pay respects to the Queen?

I'm afraid that he was paying his respects openly, but secretly he was complaining to the Queen and discussing countermeasures with her.

This Luo was originally just a person from a poor family. After she climbed up the big tree of the Queen, she gradually gained some face. She often appeared in front of the King of Qi and caught his eye.

At that time, the elder and younger Qiaos entered the palace as imperial concubines and the prince's palace as princess respectively, and they became famous all over the world. The emperor loved the elder Qiao very much, and the prince of Qi also had a harmonious relationship with the younger Qiao at first.

The Queen was wary of Concubine Hui because she came from a prominent family and had a younger sister to help her, so it was natural that she would create obstacles both overtly and covertly. Even for Luo to successfully take the position of Princess of Qi, the Queen had contributed a lot behind the scenes.

Even now, the Queen is probably very dissatisfied with the close relationship between Chu Jinnian and Chu Yunzhao, and is quite worried about Luo's current situation. Naturally, she has to help Luo to make plans and try her best to consolidate Luo's position and deal with Chu Jinnian and even Concubine Hui and her son, who are the thorns in her eyes.

It is understandable that he has no time to take care of the emperor.

As for the matter of Chu Yunhe taking a concubine, it was also something they deliberately arranged in secret.

After the rumor spread in the capital, the Queen and Chu Yunzhao decided the matter almost immediately, and even announced the good news at the Queen Mother's birthday banquet not long ago.

The royal family values ​​expansion of branches and leaves, and it is normal for a prince to take a concubine, not to mention that it can help the empress dowager to stay healthy? This matter greatly pleased the emperor and the empress dowager, and the entire palace and even the capital city said that the queen was virtuous and that Chu Yunhe was very filial.

At this time, the Queen was already actively preparing for this matter, and Chu Yunhe's concubine would be marrying into the family at the end of the month.

"The Empress is working so hard. I feel bad that I can't share her worries. But I'm sorry to say that. The Empress is going to marry a new daughter-in-law. I'm afraid she's busy and happy in her heart." Imperial Concubine Hui smiled and picked up a piece of cold bean curd for the emperor.

"This is a happy event, and it is only natural that the Queen is happy."

Chu Shengrui looked back and forth between Chu Yunzhao and Chu Jinnian, and squinted his eyes, "Come to think of it, Yunhe is going to marry a concubine, but your marriage is still uncertain. Tell me what you two want to do?"

"It would be better if Your Majesty did not mention this matter. It gives me a headache if you do."

Concubine Hui sighed helplessly, "You know Yun Zhao's personality. He seems to be a bit unruly on weekdays, but he has big ideas and is very picky. There are so many daughters from famous families, but he doesn't like any of them."

"It was not easy for Yun Zhao to show his affection for Miss Na Luo, and I was happily preparing for this matter, but then I heard that Yun Zhao and Miss Na Luo were not compatible, and if they were forced to be together, it would easily cause disaster to the elders in the family, so I gave up on this matter."

"I wanted to find another one for Yun Zhao, but Yun Zhao happened to be suffering from an allergy, and I was afraid that it was because he was upset, so I didn't force him..."

"If it really doesn't work, let's wait another year or two. Yun Zhao is too childish, and I am worried that if he gets married so early and moves to the mansion, I don't know if he can take care of himself."

It would have been fine if Chu Shengrui hadn't mentioned this matter before, but now that he has, he has to buy some time no matter what.

If you can get one or two years, then that’s better. Things keep changing all the time. Maybe one day will change.

"Father, please don't rush me. I don't want to get married too early, so just wait a little longer." Chu Yunzhao also started to act coquettishly.

"Nonsense, men should get married when they are old enough, and it is your duty as a prince to reproduce offspring." Chu Shengrui scolded.

Although it was a scolding, there was not a trace of anger in it.

"It's good to have three royal brothers. One more son won't make a difference." Chu Yunzhao still had a playful look on his face.
