Chapter 884: It is not so easy to marry the princess of Dayan
Emperor Tianxi simply said, "Mother, since you like Fuya so much, why don't you just adopt her as your goddaughter? Then, I can directly confer the title of Princess on her. Wouldn't that be better than the title of Dual Commandery Princess?"
Emperor Tianxi was puzzled as he spoke.
The Queen Mother clearly loved that little girl so much and loved her like her granddaughter.
Why didn’t you adopt a granddaughter?
The Empress Dowager: “…”
He looked at Emperor Tianxi with resentment.
Do you think she doesn't want to?
But the reason must never be mentioned.
At the same time, the Empress Dowager was also wondering why the Emperor didn't adopt Fu Ya as his goddaughter?
After all, Fu Ya is full of merits and has saved the emperor twice.
"Although a princess has a high status, it is not as good as a double princess, which can better demonstrate the royal family's favor to her." The Queen Mother said: "After all, there have been many princesses in the past dynasties, but there have never been double princesses!"
Without it, it would be precious.
Even if it's not as precious as a princess, it's almost the same.
What's more, if you are crowned as a princess, you will only be a princess for the rest of your life.
If you want to marry into the royal family, that is absolutely impossible.
"Grandmother Empress Dowager is wise!" Xuanyuan Jin said immediately.
When Princess Huaning saw this, she also hurriedly said, "Grandmother, you are wise!"
Emperor Tianxi: "...Mother, you are wise."
What else can he say?
"After Fu Ya comes to Beijing, I will issue an edict to give her the title of Princess." Emperor Tianxi said.
"Father is wise!" Princess Huaning and Xuanyuan Jin said in unison.
Tang Bao didn't know that while she was still on the road, the rewards in the capital were already waiting for her.
Moreover, it was a reward that shocked the government and the public and would go down in history!
"Hmph! If father doesn't confer the title, then wouldn't that mean he's not wise?" Emperor Tianxi snorted and said.
Although the words seemed to be spoken to both children, his eyes were only fixed on his son.
It’s a pity that my son didn’t say anything, as if he agreed.
Emperor Tianxi suddenly wanted to revoke his order.
Princess Huaning quickly said in a crisp voice, "Of course not! In the hearts of my daughter and my third brother, father is the wisest!"
Emperor Tianxi felt relieved when he saw his daughter smiling like a flower.
As expected, daughters are caring and sons are debt collectors!
However, when thinking of the report he had just received, Emperor Tianxi's brows furrowed slightly.
Western Qin intends to make peace with Dayan...
As far as he knew, Western Qin did not have a princess of the same age who could be sent to Dayan for marriage.
Could it be that... he wants to marry the princess of Dayan?
How could it be so easy to marry the princess of Dayan?
Moreover, since ancient times, marriages between two countries have always been for a certain purpose.
What is the purpose of Western Qin?
Is it really to maintain diplomatic relations between the two countries and seek peace on the border?
Emperor Tianxi didn't think so.
Emperor Tianxi looked at Xuanyuan Jin and said, "In a few days, the surrounding small countries will come to Dayan to pay homage. You have been dealing with the people from the Ministry of Rites a lot recently, and you must be familiar with the etiquette and regulations. When the time comes, you and the people from the Ministry of Rites will jointly receive the envoys from various countries..."
Emperor Tianxi paused for a moment before continuing, "In addition, Western Qin and Northern Qi will also send envoys. It will be difficult to deal with these two countries' envoys. You should act accordingly. In any case, do not bring disgrace upon the reputation of Great Yan!"
"Your son obeys your order!" Xuanyuan Jin immediately bowed and replied.
The Empress Dowager was stunned.
She didn't expect that the emperor would actually start asking his grandson to do errands.
You know, except for the eldest prince who has already married and set up his own household and holds an idle position in the Ministry of Revenue, the other princes are still studying.
Of course, the Fourth Prince and the Fifth Prince are still young, but the Second Prince is older than Xuanyuan Jin.
In the past few months, Xuanyuan Jin helped to renovate the Princess Mansion, and it can be said that it was all because of Tang Bao.
Moreover, simply renovating a mansion does not count as entering the court.
It’s different now. Receiving envoys from various countries is obviously an official duty.
Although the emperor did not say what position he would hold, but based on his status as a prince, who would dare to ignore him?
A hint of worry flashed across the Empress Dowager's eyes.
In this case, wouldn’t Sun Tzu become a target?
Well, ever since he brought his grandson back to the palace with such fanfare, his grandson has become a target.
When the Empress Dowager thought about this, she became unsure whether what she had done that day was really appropriate.
"Your Majesty the Queen Mother, the Imperial Concubine has come with the Sixth Princess and Miss Zheng to pay her respects to you." A palace maid came in and reported respectfully.
"Let them in," said the Queen Mother.
Originally, the Empress Dowager had exempted the concubines in the palace from coming to pay their respects.
But these concubines simply didn't listen.
Although they don't come according to the morning and evening visiting times, there are always people who come at irregular times.
Even if the Empress Dowager is not there, we will still come.
The Empress Dowager naturally knew what these people were up to.
What if you run into the emperor?
Therefore, I have never blamed anyone.
Concubine Zheng was in charge of the Phoenix Seal, so her status was naturally different, and the Empress Dowager was willing to give her face.
"Father!" The Sixth Princess ran over as soon as she saw Emperor Tianxi.
"An'er! How did your mother teach you?" said the imperial concubine.
The Sixth Princess paused and bowed formally to the Empress Dowager and Emperor Tianxi.
"An'er pays his respects to the Empress Dowager and the Emperor."
The Queen Mother smiled and said, "Get up."
Emperor Tianxi still loved his daughter very much.
"She is still young, so there is no need to restrict her too much." Emperor Tianxi said, "An'er, come to your father."
The Sixth Princess happily ran to the side of Emperor Tianxi.
Seeing this, Concubine Zheng smiled with relief.
Then he knelt down and greeted the Empress Dowager and the Emperor.
After Zheng Suxin entered the hall, she had already noticed Xuanyuan Jin out of the corner of her eye.
My heart couldn't help but beat wildly.
The Third Prince is still so handsome!
Compared with the Third Prince, the children of officials in the capital are so ugly that it is unbearable to look at them!
"Your humble servant greets His Majesty, the Emperor, and the Empress Dowager."
Zheng Suxin bowed to Emperor Tianxi and the Empress Dowager above her.
"No need for formalities." Emperor Tianxi said.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Zheng Suxin stood up, but couldn't help glancing in Xuanyuan Jin's direction out of the corner of her eyes.
Xuanyuan Jin looked at the Empress Dowager and said, "Grandmother, I still have things to do. I'll take my leave."
"Well, go ahead." The Queen Mother waved her hand lovingly.
Since the daughter of a foreign official has come, it is naturally inconvenient for his grandson to stay.
Xuanyuan Jin looked at Emperor Tianxi again and said, "Father, I will take my leave."
Emperor Tianxi nodded.
Zheng Suxin looked at Xuanyuan Jin's back, her face full of disappointment.
As soon as she arrived, the Third Prince left.
These days, with the help of her aunt, she created countless chance encounters.
Unfortunately, the Third Prince was like a blind man, not even looking at her...
The more Zheng Suxin thought about it, the more unwilling she became. As she looked at Xuanyuan Jin's back, a hint of frustration unconsciously appeared in her eyes.
