Because the Xue family had not opened up the situation at the top, she could not get the letter from the Princess of Shu that she was willing to make a bet on Qin Jinyi for her youngest son, so she directly made an appointment with the youngest son of the King of Shu, Zhao Yan.

She thought very simply. It was rumored that the King of Shu and his wife loved their youngest son very much. As long as Zhao Yan, the youngest son of the King of Shu, offered to marry Qin Jinyi, and with Qin Jinyi's family background, there was no reason for the King of Shu and his wife to refuse. Although her granddaughter was still young.

, but in another three years

It's almost time to get married, and it's old enough to get engaged. The youngest son of King Shu is only fifteen or sixteen years old. It's a little too early to get married at this age. Waiting until eighteen or nine is just right. Qin Jinyi was born beautiful, so she thought

It should not be difficult to win the favor of the youngest son of the King of Shu.

At that time, Mr. Xue inquired from someone about the whereabouts of the youngest son of the King of Shu. After learning that he had congratulated the Queen Mother on her birthday, she went out of the palace with several brothers from the clan to go to the temple to offer incense and pray for the Queen Mother.

Several male and female servants were sent to wait on Qin Jinyi, who was riding in a tampered carriage.

Driving slowly to the road that must be passed by the youngest son of the King of Shu and his party back to the city. When they passed by, Qin Jinyi's carriage "happened" to be broken down and could not move. Qin Jinyi "recognized" that there was someone familiar with the Marquis Cheng'en in their party.

The two young masters from Prince Xiuning's palace sent people to ask for help.

Prince Xiuning had a long history of friendship with the Qin family. His wife and children would come to the Marquis of Chengen's Mansion from time to time, but they had little contact with the Second Fang. In the eyes of the people in the Prince Xiuning's Mansion, the Second Fang was not a worthy friend.

In recent months, King Xiuning was on good terms with Qin Bai. His son had met Qin Bai several times and knew that Qin Jinyi was Qin Bai's grandniece. For Qin Bai's sake, he helped.

Traveling with the youngest son of King Shu and the two young masters of Xiuning Palace, in addition to several clan members of similar age to them, there were also two princesses from Shanyang Palace, riding in a luxurious carriage. Xiuning Palace

If the second young master wants to respond to Qin Jinyi's sentiments and send her home, he must let her sit in this carriage.

The situation of Prince Shanyang's Mansion is a bit special in this dynasty. Prince Shanyang is the youngest son of the late emperor's biological brother. His father once also had the title of prince, but his vision and luck were not very good, and he even tried his best to get involved in the late emperor's affairs.

During the battle for the princes to seize the throne, the old prince supported one of the princes to seize the throne, and also participated in the frame-up of Jin Shang. However, the prince he supported was quickly pulled down by other princes, and he was also affected by Chi Yu.

disaster, life

Wow. The mother of King Sanyang gave birth to several sons, daughters, and even more concubine children born to concubines. But after the death of the old prince, the princess may have felt that the whole family had been forced to have no choice but to survive.

,

Being humiliated by other princes, it is better for the whole family to commit suicide, die more honorably, and be reunited under the Nine Springs. So she poisoned everyone in the family, and almost the whole family died overnight. She also took the poison herself

Committed suicide.

King Shanyang was her youngest son. He happened to be unwell at that time. He drank poisonous tea and then vomited it out. The poison was not serious. After hearing the news, the late emperor sent an imperial doctor to treat him and he survived.

The orphaned King Sanyo did not live very well during the struggle to seize the throne, and his body was affected by toxins and became weak for a long time. Until Jinshang ascended the throne, brought order to the chaos, and asked the Queen Mother to come forward to take King Sanyo into the palace and adopt him.

The body was able to slowly recover. However, it is not so much that the current emperor is kind-hearted.

, couldn't bear to see him suffer as an orphan, rather, all the kindness he showed to him was a kind of pity that a victor would have for cannon fodder. The emperor didn't take him seriously at all, he just used him to pay tribute to those who had participated in the fight for the heir.

The old minister showed that he would not settle the past, just to establish a good reputation for being kind and generous.

King Shanyang and King Shu were raised together in the Queen Mother's Palace. Over the past few years, they had a good relationship. But unlike King Shu, King Shanyang was in a very embarrassing situation.

From the concubine to the emperor, few ministers had a good impression of him. Qin Song, the Marquis of Chengen, once ignored his existence in person, which was quite rude. It had nothing to do with him personally, but it was just because of his deceased father that he was angry with him.

That's all. When he reached the age of fourteen, he received a decree from the emperor and was conferred the title of a county king, and then left the palace to build a mansion.

King Shanyang was very weak both as a royal family member and as a family member. Even the size of his palace was at the bottom among the clan palaces in the capital. He was an honest and cautious person. In order to live a better life, he married the Queen Mother Tu's natal family.

The niece is a cousin of the Princess of Shu. Although she is the daughter of a side branch, her surname is Tu after all. After becoming an in-law with the Tu family, the situation of King Shanyang was indeed much better.

Princess Tu of Shanyang gave birth to three daughters for her husband, but King Shanyang didn't know whether he really loved the princess or was afraid of the Tu family, so he didn't accept any side wives. After giving birth to three daughters in a row, he became a little discouraged and thought maybe

It was his parents who committed too many sins, and the retribution came to him, causing him to have no children or grandchildren. Unexpectedly, a few years ago, the princess suddenly became pregnant again, and this time she finally gave birth to a little son. As of this year, he is exactly three years old.

With the birth of this son, King Shanyang's usual muddled temper suddenly changed and he became more active. He seemed to feel that he was too lazy in the past. If he didn't cheer up, he would have enough money for his three daughters.

After the dowry, what else can be left for the dear old man?

In the past thirty years, he has been very honest. He has washed away the negative influence caused by his late father and seems to be no longer coldly treated by the emperor. He entrusted the elders in the clan, such as King Xiuning, to replace him.

He made connections and did a few things for the clan mansion, which was somewhat of a credit. Gradually, he gained some status in the capital and accumulated wealth. Now he is keen on making connections and inviting names.

Not only did he want to save a fortune for his son, but he also wanted to leave a good impression on the emperor, hoping that the emperor would reward him with a favor and allow his son to be promoted to a noble title without being demoted.

As a county king, if according to the rules of this dynasty, the legitimate son will be demoted one level when he inherits the title, his son will only be a general of the country in the future, and his treatment will be much different from that of the county king. But if it is like King Xiuning

The elders of the clan who are valued and respected by the emperor, although they also have the title of county prince, have received the emperor's grace. When the eldest son inherits the title, he does not need to be downgraded. He is still the prince of Xiuning County. The prince of Xiuning County wants to get this grace from the emperor, but

He has not been able to succeed for a long time, and his wife and daughter are well aware of his concerns. Now the emperor's most favored brother-in-law, the grandniece of Yongjia Marquis Qin Bai, appears in front of the two princesses of Shanyang Palace. How could they let this person go?

What's the chance of making good friends with the Qin family?

As soon as the second young master of Xiuning Palace made the suggestion, the two princesses of Shanyang Palace enthusiastically welcomed Qin Jinyi to their carriage. The two princesses were both direct children, one was thirteen years old and the other was ten years old.

She was quite handsome, but in terms of beauty, she was probably not as good as Qin Jinyi. When they saw Qin Jinyi, they only expressed admiration and no hint of jealousy. They even enthusiastically lent her hair tools to tidy up her appearance and treated her to a drink.

Tea and snacks. In less than two quarters of an hour from the place where they met to the Marquis Chengen's mansion, the three little girls became good friends.

When they arrived at the Marquis of Chengen's Mansion, the two young masters from Prince Xiuning's Mansion had to send Qin Jinyi in, and then pay homage to Qin Bai or other elders of the Qin family to explain the matter before they could say goodbye and leave. As for the King of Shu,

The youngest son said in a very familiar manner that he had not seen "Uncle Qin San" for many days and wanted to pay him a greeting. The other clan members also knew that Yongjia Marquis Qin Bai's holy family was in great prosperity, and they enthusiastically wanted to go with him to pay their respects to Shanyang.

Although it was not easy for the princesses in the palace to meet their male relatives and elders, they still entered the Kurong Hall hand in hand with Qin Jinyi in the name of a good friend they had just met.

Qin Bai had just sent Zhao Mo away at that time, and had not heard about the missing girl in the second room. He heard that someone came to report, and he was not very happy to meet the youngest son of the King of Shu, but with the son of King Xiuning here, he still

Appeared in Kurong Hall.

Although the youngest son of the King of Shu tried hard to show that he had a close relationship with him and seemed to want to please him, he still got closer to the two young masters of the Xiuning Palace in his words: "I saw your father in the palace today.

Unfortunately, I couldn't talk to him in detail. I only heard him say something in a hurry, saying that he had a new ancient painting in his house, which was an "Autumn Scenery". It was suspected to be written by a famous artist from the previous dynasty, but he was a little unsure. He invited

I went to taste it, but I didn't have time to make an appointment. When will your father have free time? I might as well pay him a visit."

The two young masters from Prince Xiuning's Palace spoke to him in respectful yet cordial tones, which somewhat stole the limelight from the youngest son of King Shu. The latter, despite his young age, was able to keep his composure and just smiled in response.

He didn't show any impatience. The second wife, Mrs. Xue, who came to say thank you, was full of praise for the demeanor of the youngest son of the King of Shu. She praised him again and again, making everyone in the Qin family blush - because it was too much.

Flattery is really a bit embarrassing to the Qin family.

Qin Bai probably noticed it, and he praised the youngest son of the King of Shu with a smile, and said: Thank you for lending a helping hand today and helping your niece. Can I ask her to come and salute my cousins ​​to say thank you?

In one sentence, the generational differences between Qin Jinyi and other clan members were pointed out, making Mr. Xue's face turn green with anger.

At this moment, the princess of Shanyang Palace said to Qin Jinyi: "Although we are of different generations, we are similar in age, so we are still equals, right? Otherwise, once the name of a relative is used in a crooked way, no matter how close we are,

People have become different. As long as we have the same temperament, it doesn't matter whether we are relatives or from the same generation."

Qin Jinyi felt very pleasantly surprised and agreed immediately. The youngest son of the King of Shu also followed his cousin's words and echoed a few words.

As for Xue, it was probably from this moment that she had some idea. She felt that since the youngest son of the King of Shu no longer cared about the generation difference, and Princess Shanyang, who was on good terms with the Prince of Shu, even said that congenial temperaments were more important, then Qin Jinyi would marry

For the youngest son of the King of Shu, the difference in generation is probably not that important. As long as the parties involved have the same temperament and are consensual, who can say anything? There is no blood relationship between the Shu Prince's family and the Qin family.

As soon as this thought changed, Mrs.

Okay. In the eyes of outsiders, maybe the generation difference between Qin Jinyi and the youngest son of King Shu is not that obvious?

Feeling the enthusiasm and consideration of the youngest son of the King of Shu for his granddaughter Qin Jinyi, Mr. Xue tried his best to persuade his son Qin Bofu who did not agree to the separation of the family. Only then did the three heads of the Qin family finally reach a consensus on the separation of the family.

After Qin Hanzhen explained the situation, he added: "I feel that the second wife may have some misunderstanding. That day, the youngest son of the King of Shu and Princess Shanyang seemed to be here for my grandfather, for my grandfather's sake.

That's why I'm so kind to my eldest sister. If the second wife separates, it's hard to say whether this kindness can be maintained..."

Zhao Mo was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "So what if it's a misunderstanding? Does my cousin still plan to remind them?"

Qin Hanzhen pursed his lips and smiled: "Of course not."
