Chapter 268 Marriage Proposal
Feng Ying was stunned.
Herself?
She doesn't know anything, what's the point of going there?
She doesn't dare.
[? Is Xiao Yun planning to plot against Aying in this way? The Emperor summoned Aying at this time just to arouse the anger and jealousy of the harem, mainly to arouse the jealousy of Huo Nanfeng, and use Huo Nanfeng to deal with Aying? ]
[Even if he doesn't use this strategy, Huo Nanfeng will still help Xiao Yun, right? ]
[Is it because he wants to make Concubine Gao jealous? Haha, Concubine Gao is still in this mood now? ]
Li Jidao did some calculations and laughed.
[It's okay for Ah Ying to go. I guess she'll just eat, drink and ask a few questions.]
Feng Ying:?
Really want to go?
"Madam Feng?" Tutu Chengzhi urged Feng Ying.
Feng Ying said: "But I can't exorcise evil spirits and pray for blessings at night. I... I can only do it once a day, and I did it today."
It's right that she learned from her mother, right?
As long as it's not something related to the mysterious sect, she can handle some of the other things.
Tutu Chengzhi said: "Madam, just tell the saint directly when the time comes."
Since there was no way to escape, Feng Ying simply didn't even change his clothes and just followed Tutu Chengzhi.
Not long after they left, Vulture brought Song Jie to the yard where Li Jidao was.
The eunuchs and palace maids around them did not regard Feng Ying and Li Jidao as their masters at all and went to bed early.
This provided Song Jie and Li Jidao with an opportunity to be alone.
Li Jidao said to Song Jie, "That's great. Let's go meet him, A Liu."
She found a set of palace maid's clothes for Song Jie.
Song Jie: ? ?
Li Jidao asked inquiringly, "How about wearing eunuch's clothes? Won't it be revealing?"
Song Jie asked, "Have you ever seen a palace maid this tall? Isn't it revealing?"
"Have you ever seen such a magnanimous eunuch? He is also exposed."
"Why should I change clothes if I'm going to be exposed anyway?"
Li Jidao thought that what he said made a lot of sense and I couldn't refute it.
"Aren't you afraid of being exposed?"
Song Jie still let the vulture take them there. He believed that the Queen and A Liu would definitely not betray him, so it would be unnecessary for him to change his clothes.
As for others.
He raised his hand and snapped his fingers.
The palace maids and eunuchs, who had originally ignored Li Jidao, began to snore.
Li Ji said: “!!”
Forgot, he has a group attack.
The emperor and the empress had actually already fallen out with each other in private, but they were still trying to maintain their relationship on the surface.
Therefore, the emperor was not much nicer to the empress.
The Qinzhengwuben Building was newly built, while the Weiyang Palace was burned down during the Taikang Emperor's abdication, and some palaces were burned down. Compared with the Qinzhengwuben Building, it was very dilapidated.
So now it is almost abandoned.
Only unfavored concubines would live in the Weiyang Palace.
The Queen and A Liu both live here.
Song Jie made all the palace maids and eunuchs fall asleep.
The Queen and A Liu were obviously not asleep. When they heard the noise, their faces turned pale and they hid in the inner room.
Seeing that it was Li Jidao, Ah Liu said softly, "Mother, this is our young lady."
The Queen then left her daughter's presence and came out to greet her.
Then they saw Song Jie again.
Song Jie had helped the empress before. If it weren't for Song Jie, the empress would have been killed on the day she adopted her daughter.
So the Queen was very grateful to Song Jie and did not let them perform the ceremony.
"I don't need to be the queen, I'm just a decoration. We are all family. Don't worry about the red tape. Please take a seat."
After the queen finished speaking, she went to support A Liu.
Ah Liu said: "Mother, I can do it myself."
The Queen said, "You have just recovered from your illness, so you should be careful."
The mother and daughter supported each other and then sat down.
Ah Liu raised his head and said, "My dear, I remember everything that happened in the formation. If you hadn't brought it back to me, I would definitely be dead now."
The Queen wanted to stand up and thank Li Jidao.
Without Li Jidao, she would have no daughter.
If she lost the daughter she had just adopted, she would really go crazy.
She doesn't care about kneeling down and kowtow to her benefactor, or being called the queen or anything like that. She doesn't care about this empty title at all now.
Li Jidao stood up quickly and helped the queen up, saying, "Although Ah Liu and I have not been together for a long time, we are both like my mother's children. We are as close as sisters. Isn't it my duty to save her?"
The queen looked grateful and relieved and said, "Others thought my daughter knew nothing after returning from outside the palace, so they encouraged her to leave the Li family, saying that she had been a servant in the Li family."
"But I know that Madam Feng is a very kind person and will only treat her as her daughter."
Indeed, someone had encouraged A Liu to do so.
But A Liu doesn't care about these false names at all.
She was originally a servant, so was she noble as a princess? Was she the kind of princess who was almost killed by her own father?
A Liu felt that there was no need to explain these to Li Jidao.
She said directly: "I also heard that the young lady and the lady were called in by the emperor. Recently, Concubine Gao is selecting princesses for the two princes. They called you in at this time, don't be ill-intentioned."
The Emperor and Concubine Gao are now at odds with each other.
However, since the Gao family still had some status, and Concubine Gao had given birth to two princes, both of whom were already adults, and the emperor did not have many children, he did not dare to take action against Concubine Gao for the time being.
If the emperor had many sons, Concubine Gao would have been killed by now.
Seeing the two "immortals" fighting each other, and not knowing who will suffer, the emperor let Li Jidao and others into the palace at this time, which obviously had no good intentions.
Li Jidao asked, "Who does Concubine Gao have in mind?"
Ah Liu said, "Concubine Gao has taken a fancy to the young lady from Changsun's family. Apparently, the Emperor has also taken a fancy to her and wants to introduce her to Prince Qi."
A Liu was not talking about Chang Sun Ting.
But she is Changsun Ting's cousin.
Changsun Jiajian is in the emperor's favor and has always been the patron saint of the empire, so his status is quite extraordinary.
He is much more powerful than the new court nobles like Xiao Wenzhe.
The Changsun family was like a large tree with tangled roots; almost all the slightly powerful families in the court were their in-laws.
Their family is full of talented people.
For example, Changsun Zhan and Changsun Ting are all talented.
When Emperor Taikang was forcing the emperor to abdicate, it was Concubine Gao's family who persuaded the chief of the Changsun clan, who remained neutral and did not take action, which led to the defeat of the late emperor and the captured crown prince.
Therefore, the Gao family has a close relationship with the Zhangsun family.
Later, when Emperor Taikang ascended the throne, he still attached great importance to Changsun's family, and the people of Changsun's family also listened to the emperor.
Now both sides want to win over the Changsun family, it depends on who has greater ability.
As for this young lady, Li Jidao's estimation was correct, she should be the eldest grandson Yan, the legitimate daughter born to the second wife of the current grandson of the Zhang family.
In a big family, everyone has some bloody stories.
Chang Sunyan's parents are eight years apart in age.
Chang Sunyan's mother was a young lady from the mansion of the Earl of Loyalty and Bravery.
Although they were also earls, this title was not prestigious at all in a place like Chang'an.
It stands to reason that the grandson of Zhang's family, even if he is to continue his marriage, would not be able to marry into the Earl of Loyalty and Bravery's Mansion.
I heard there is a lie in this.
Chang Sunyan's mother was good at playing the pipa, and a piece of pipa captured Shi Sunyan's heart.
