Chapter 1452: Turning a deaf ear to what is happening outside the window can easily lead to mistakes
Mrs. Su thought about this and said, "I've noticed that there are several girls in the capital who are both good-looking and kind-hearted... The older generation has recommended a few girls to me. They're all graceful, well-mannered, and reasonable..."
"...I've been thinking about holding a flower viewing banquet after the crown prince's enthronement ceremony, inviting the ladies of every household to come with their daughters..."
Whenever there was a boy of marriageable age in a family, and the ladies of Beppu were invited to visit with their daughters, everyone knew what was going on.
Old Mrs. Su spoke slowly, but for some reason, she always felt uneasy in her heart.
Old Man Su had no objection to what Old Lady Su said.
My sons are all married, and it’s time to put the marriages of my grandchildren on the agenda.
"The girl from Prince Cheng'en's Mansion is not bad either. She's also good friends with our daughter." Old Man Su thought for a moment and said, "If we can marry into Prince Cheng'en's Mansion, it would be a good match."
He gets along well with King Cheng'en.
Prince Cheng'en has helped the Su family more than once.
Old Man Su was actually willing to marry into the Cheng'en Palace.
If it were in the past, he would naturally not have had this idea.
After all, the royal family is of too high status.
Old Man Su would never take the initiative to try to get close to someone of a higher status.
It's different now.
The Su family is far less noble than the royal family, but they still have a title.
What's more, King Cheng'en has taken the initiative to make friends with him, so he definitely won't care about his family background.
After hearing what Old Man Su said, Old Madam Su said, "That day, Concubine Liu did hint at something. I naturally like Princess Linghua's child, but this matter ultimately depends on the Prince's opinion..."
At this time, in Prince Cheng'en's mansion, Prince Cheng'en shook his head repeatedly after hearing what Concubine Liu said.
"No, no! If Linghua marries the grandson of the Su family, wouldn't I be a generation younger than King Xiaoyao?" King Cheng'en said loudly.
Concubine Liu paused.
She didn't expect that this was what King Cheng'en cared about.
King Cheng'en naturally cares about this!
He had just mocked King Xiaoyao not long ago, saying that King Xiaoyao adopted Siwa as his adopted son, who was a generation younger than him.
As a result, King Xiaoyao's adopted son became his grandson, and his generation went back to the beginning.
If his daughter married the grandson of the Su family, King Xiaoyao would probably laugh at him.
"Your Highness, why don't you ask the princess what she thinks?" Concubine Liu said tentatively while helping Prince Cheng'en get dressed, "The princess and the young doctor are close friends. Maybe she'll be willing to accept this marriage because of her love for him..."
"Impossible! Linghua and the little genius doctor are sisters. If she marries into the Su family, won't she have to call the little genius doctor aunt?" Prince Cheng'en said with absolute certainty: "Linghua will definitely not be happy!"
Concubine Liu: "..."
Why did she think the princess was happy?
Anyway, she was happy to marry into the Su family.
She went to the Su family for a wedding banquet and realized that the Su family were all honest people.
Especially Mrs. Su, you can tell at first glance that she is not a trouble-making mother-in-law.
After a woman gets married, she lives in the backyard and the person she deals with most is not her husband, but her mother-in-law.
So, sometimes meeting a good mother-in-law is more important than meeting a good man.
No matter how good a man is, he can't always be by your side.
Moreover, if your mother-in-law dislikes you, even if a man wants to protect you, he will most likely not be able to do so.
"I think the Zheng family's boy is quite good," Prince Cheng'en said thoughtfully. "After all, he's a Jinshi (a scholar-official), which is rare among the children of the rich and powerful in the capital. He's barely worthy of my daughter..."
Upon hearing this, Concubine Liu hesitated and said, "That child's leg... is it really healed? Isn't he still disabled?"
"No! That was all a trick by that old fox, Prime Minister Zheng, to reject the marriage proposal from Prince Rong's Mansion!" Prince Cheng'en put on a wise expression and said, "Only the people in Prince Rong's Mansion believed it at the time. I never believed it at all!"
If you really break something, wouldn't you go seek help from a little doctor?
He had asked the young doctor, but there was no one in the Zheng family who could ask the young doctor to treat the boy from the Zheng family.
From this, it seems that the boy from the Zheng family’s leg was not broken at all!
When Concubine Liu heard what Prince Cheng'en said, she had no choice but to give up the idea of marrying into the Su family.
After all, Princess Linghua is not her daughter.
This marriage with the Zheng family is better than that with the Su family in every aspect.
Except for Mrs. Zheng, the mother-in-law, no one is necessarily better than Mrs. Su.
However, Princess Linghua is of noble status, so Madam Zheng would certainly not dare to bully her daughter-in-law at will.
"In that case, do you want me to ask someone to go to the Zheng family and let them know?" asked Concubine Liu.
Prince Cheng'en nodded and said domineeringly, "Alright! If that old fox, Prime Minister Zheng, dares to refuse, I'll show you how I'll deal with him!"
Concubine Liu smiled and said, "The princess is intelligent, beautiful, and of noble status. It is a blessing for the Zheng family that she can marry into their family. They are probably so happy that they don't know what to do. They may send someone to propose marriage immediately. How can they refuse?"
King Cheng'en liked to hear this.
"Well! I don't think they dare!" King Cheng'en said proudly, "The fact that my daughter can marry into the Zheng family is a great honor for the Zheng family's grandfather!"
Concubine Liu smiled and nodded.
"In that case, tomorrow the princess will be visiting the Zheng family. She should dress up nicely." Concubine Liu said, "I will go to the princess's courtyard right now to see if there is anything she needs..."
Upon hearing this, King Cheng'en immediately said, "Yes, yes, you should go quickly. No, no, please walk slowly and don't knock my son over... Or I'll go with you..."
As Prince Cheng'en said this, he personally helped Concubine Liu out of the room.
Concubine Liu subconsciously touched her belly and a peaceful and happy smile appeared on her face.
The prince has been very kind to her, and it is great that she now has his child.
**
Tang Bao was concentrating on embroidering the crown at home and didn't pay attention to the news outside.
By the time she heard about it again, the Xia and Zheng families had already started discussing marriage.
Tang Bao: “…”
What should I do with my eldest nephew?
Sure enough, if you turn a deaf ear to what’s happening outside, you’re likely to make mistakes!
Tang Bao put down the embroidery needle in her hand, got up and went to the kitchen.
As soon as Aunt Pang saw Tangbao coming, she immediately smiled.
"Princess, what do you want to eat? Auntie Pang will make it for you."
"Auntie Pang, do you have any ready-made cakes, soups, etc.?" Tang Bao asked.
"Yes, here are some snacks and pastries for the young masters, as well as some nourishing soup." Aunt Fat said quickly.
"I'll send it to them." Tang Bao said.
"Okay! Princess, please wait a moment."
As Aunt Fat spoke, she put several large plates of cakes and pastries into the food box with a deftness that was inconsistent with her fat body.
Finally, a wooden barrel and a basket were brought out.
The wooden barrel contains a thick nourishing soup.
There was a pile of bowls and spoons in the basket.
When Pomegranate saw this, he quickly took the barrel and basket.
With so many young masters, you have to use wooden barrels to carry the soup.
