Why not be the examiner yourself?
After Xiao Hanyi made the decision, he felt much more relieved. If he had kept an eye on it personally, such a big case would not have occurred.
"Are you Liu Qian?" Xiao Hanyi asked.
He remembered that the second prince had mentioned it to him once, but for some reason, there was no further news. He was busy with state affairs and did not ask again.
Now, seeing the two princes in front of me, I suddenly remembered that the Liu Qian the little guy was talking about was her? Well, she became the queen in the future and made Daliang rich and strong. Not bad, not bad. It seems that my two sons have good vision!
The more Xiao Conghui looked at Liu Qian, the more he liked her.
Liu Qian stepped forward generously and said, "Your servant Liu Qian pays his respects to the emperor."
"Get up."
The eldest prince was standing aside, feeling very proud. He won this round!
......
After playing in Xiangguo Temple for two days, Xiao Conghui took Guo Xiner back to the palace because the master of Xiangguo Temple said that the celestial phenomena had changed and there was no need to worry.
After returning to the palace, Guo Xiner was arranged to live in Weiyang Palace.
On this day, Xiao Conghui went to court, and the court officials discussed the issue of the visit of the envoys from Northern Liang.
The core question is, which princess will get married?
The only ones of the right age were the eldest princess, born to the queen, and the second princess, born to Concubine Heng.
A group of people felt that the legitimate princess was too noble to marry into Beiliang.
Another group of people said that if the country needs it, the legitimate princess should naturally take the throne.
Finally, unresolved.
......
After paying her respects, Guo Xiner was kept by Queen Wang, who took her hand and led her into the inner hall.
"Serve my sister some good tea," Queen Wang ordered, "and you all go out and serve her."
[Mother, you have to be careful. The leader asked you to stay alone to talk. You must be careful.]
Guo Xiner kept a perfect smile on her face, but she was always cautious in her heart. The Queen was so enthusiastic, there must be something wrong.
After taking two sips of tea, Guo Xiner smiled and said, "The Queen's tea is really delicious."
Queen Wang said, "Sister, do you like it? Go and pack a can and give it to the servants around the imperial concubine."
She ordered the palace maids.
"How can I have the nerve to accept such expensive tea from the Queen?" Guo Xiner said politely.
"It's just a little tea, why are you being so polite to me, sister?" said Queen Wang.
The two of them exchanged polite words with each other.
"In July, envoys from Northern Liang came, and I heard that they wanted to marry a princess," Queen Wang had to change the subject.
"Yes," Guo Xiner rubbed the teacup in her hand.
Queen Wang looked a little surprised. This Guo Xiner is not a good person!
"Sister, which princess do you think the emperor will let go?"
"Oh, I see. Queen Wang wants my mother to plead for her. She wants to keep her daughter."
Guo Xiner smiled softly, "Empress, I am a dull concubine. I will obey the Emperor on all matters of state, right?"
Of course, we have to listen to the emperor. Queen Wang is a little anxious, so she should just say it directly. Guo Xiner looks silly.
Queen Wang wanted to take Guo Xiner's hand, but Guo Xiner was holding the teacup in both hands, so she had to give up and leaned towards Guo Xiner. "Alas, the eldest princess has been spoiled by me since she was a child. How can she marry the prince of Beiliang? She has such a temper and can't stand any loss."
Guo Xiner's face was filled with a proper smile. "Your Majesty, what you said is not true. I heard the Emperor praise the eldest princess yesterday, saying that she has the demeanor of a princess from a great country."
Under normal circumstances, Queen Wang would definitely be happy to hear Xiao Hanyi praising her daughter, but now, she was scared to death.
She only had this one precious child, and Duan was reluctant to let her marry a man from Beiliang.
The two chatted for a few sentences about the eldest princess. Guo Xiner was very serious, but in the end all she said was praises for the eldest princess, which was meaningless.
A surge of anger surged from the bottom of Queen Wang's heart. She didn't know whether Concubine Guo was really stupid or just pretending to be stupid. If it weren't for her daughter, she would not waste her time talking to this idiot.
But what could she do? She had already proposed to Xiao Hanyi to find a husband for the eldest princess, but Xiao Hanyi flatly refused and stated on the spot that at this moment, neither princess was allowed to discuss marriage.
Concubine Heng had made a fuss several times, but Xiao Hanyi just wouldn't give in.
Now Xiao Hanyi dotes on Guo Xiner, maybe he will listen to Guo Xiner's words. Let's try it out.
"Sister, you have a child too, so you know how a mother feels. I can't bear to let my child marry so far away, so I would like to ask you to persuade the emperor." Queen Wang had no choice but to speak frankly.
"Oh, mother, please don't blindly get involved in such matters. My Tyrant Father knows what's going on. No matter what you say, you'll offend others. Tyrant Father is treating you so well now. There's really no need to offend Tyrant Father just to win the Queen's favor."
Xiao Jiayun was worried that Guo Xiner would be soft-hearted and not know how to refuse.
Unexpectedly, Guo Xiner put down the teacup and put on a serious face, "Empress, you are the mother who doesn't want your daughter to marry Beiliang. Do other mothers want to be willing? I'm sorry that I can't help you."
Queen Wang was visibly stunned. She actually refused outright?? She stood there awkwardly, her lips twitching slightly. "That's right."
Xiao Jiayun was so happy that he clapped his hands. It seemed that his mother was not a naive person. He was sleepy and went to sleep.
"If Your Majesty has nothing else to do, I will take my leave first."
Guo Xiner bowed, and when Queen Wang nodded, she turned and left.
After leaving the Pepper Room, Guo Xiner's eyes became cold, completely different from the spring-like look just now.
Yan'er asked carefully, "Your Majesty, why don't you help the Queen?"
Although they were driven out, they could still hear the voices inside clearly. Her master had a poor family background. Although she was a noble concubine now, wouldn't it be better if she could hold on to the big tree of the queen?
Guo Xiner glanced at Yan'er and asked, "She brought a can of tea and asked me to speak to the emperor?"
Having been the queen for so long, she still doesn't understand this? Guo Xiner snorted inwardly. It seemed that she had been praised for so long in her high position that she had forgotten the cruelty of this world and the cruelty surrounding the imperial power.
Oh, Yan'er nodded. It seems that her gentle master is not someone to be trifled with.
Seeing Yan'er's understanding look, Guo Xiner sighed and said with a smile, "Why worry about these things? You have been serving me wholeheartedly these days. When I give birth safely, I will find a good family for you."
Yan'er stopped smiling and replied seriously, "I don't want to get married."
What's the point of being married? You have to set rules in front of your mother-in-law. It's better to be alone and free.
kindness?
Guo Xiner thought she was shy and stopped talking.
......
"Your Majesty, the tea is cold. Can I change it for you?" Chunlan asked in a low voice.
Concubine Guo had been gone for a long time, but Queen Wang had been sitting there.
"Ask the eldest prince to come to the palace," Queen Wang ordered coldly.
We must do whatever it takes to ensure that the eldest princess does not marry into Northern Liang.
Speaking of the eldest prince, Chunlan felt warm in her heart. She could see the eldest prince again. She had been dreaming of Xiao Conghui these days.
"Yes," Chunlan didn't dare to show it on her face.
