Chapter 57 Who to Marry

"The main thing is that throughout the ages, not many people who have been in the top three positions have become talented. None of them has a good ending." The Queen Mother added that she also didn't like those who were arrogant and proud of their talents.

"Why does a commoner who farm and study and inherit his family have 30% of the land in Gyeonggi Province? Also, how can he maintain his family's land when both his parents are dead and he has no aunts or sisters?" Shi Niang didn't think about that. What she was thinking about was,

This person's life was somewhat peaceful, "Don't say that just because he has top-notch talents, everyone just bows to him? If that's the case, it's illegal, right?"

"Don't be so philistine like your fifth mother." The eldest princess tapped her lightly, then looked back at the booklet, and said casually, "However, Your Majesty, there is some truth in what you said. The capital of Gyeongsang is an important place.

It's not that simple to have 30% of the land. I think back then, the land in Gyeonggi was divided up by the important ministers of the court. After a few years, even if the prince wanted to build a village nearby, he didn't. As a result, it was only a few years ago.

, there is someone who can hold 30% of the land in the capital, and still be a commoner with no title or official title. Such a background is too complicated, and the real mother will not marry."

"If someone dares to give it, why would I dare not to accept it?" The emperor smiled casually and looked at Shi Niang, "Shi Niang has really learned very well. With this little information, she can speak clearly and logically. What else do you want? I will give it to you from my uncle."

you."

"Forget it, it doesn't taste good to give me anything now."

"Well, at this moment, I feel that Fang Xian has a good eye for selecting people. He has chosen the best one. It makes me very embarrassed whether to use it or not." The emperor sighed softly.

"There are a few people with similar status to Zhang Qian, but their quality is far inferior." The eldest princess nodded and looked at it carefully for a while, "Besides the number one scholar, does the emperor have any other candidates?"

"There is another one, a new recruit in the army. He comes from a really poor family. He is twenty years old and is an orphan from the southwest border people. He is fed by hundreds of families. He grew up in a border village and joined the army as a handyman at the age of fourteen. He passed five passes and killed six.

The general is now a full-ranked fifth-rank general, and the only one who has risen as fast as him is Tian Wei." The emperor said hurriedly.

"The path is the same as Wei Liang's. What do you want Shi Niang to do in the future? Even if he lives and becomes a general, it is actually the same as being a widow. We can't let Shi Niang go to the southwest with him. If he leaves the southwest

"Losing the geographical advantage is equivalent to the dragon being trapped in the shallows." The eldest princess shook her head. She believed that this was the candidate that her brother really wanted for Shi Niang. A general from a poor family who made a name for himself might be able to break the four families.

monopoly.

"So you still want Shi Niang to marry Zhang Qian." The emperor didn't care.

"Zhang Qian is a little stupid, but now I find that Shi Niang is not smart either. There are some things between them, almost the same, a bit pedantic." The eldest princess finally finished reading, hesitated for a while, and put the booklet into her sleeve, "I'd better read it again.

Look, maybe Zhang Qian isn’t as good as we thought, so we’ll keep a few as spares.”

"Looking for a few children from poor families." The emperor couldn't help but say.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, my wife will definitely not choose a commoner for her." The eldest princess glanced at the emperor and said calmly, "If she were my own daughter, it would be okay to choose a commoner. Everyone in the world would be watching!"

The Empress Dowager nodded, "The Zhuang and An families are also keeping an eye on them. People with similar needs, if you really pick one that goes too far, you will really offend people."

"What do you think?" The emperor looked at Shi Niang. She got married herself, so she must have some say.

"Uncle, really, as long as you persuade my six mothers, I will hit them wherever you point them." Shi Niang was speechless. How could she let the emperor see that she was the one who could make the decision?

"It's worthless." The emperor glared at Shi Niang, but he had no choice but to do so.

"Let's go. The fourth lady has prepared a flower banquet today, saying you like it."

"Oh, the flower banquet is really not delicious. When will Si Niang's habit of pushing me among the beauties end?"

"As long as she lives." The eldest princess turned around and bowed to the empress dowager and the emperor, then walked out slowly.

Shi Niang silently bowed to the Empress Dowager and the Emperor and followed them out with a grimace.

"Sister-in-law, Prince Rui!" The emperor thought about it and held his head.

"Okay, she can teach Shi Niang like this. No one else can ask for it. Our Shi Niang is already good-looking, and her manners are well behaved. Look at her, even though she is wearing a riding suit, she is riding on a horse.

Mercedes-Benz, no one can compare with her spirit. That day at the racecourse, even though Liu Niangzi was called the most beautiful woman, our real mother went over and was immediately compared to her. Although the facial features are not as exquisite as Liu Niangzi's, they are the same.

, plus the good teaching, the momentum..." The Empress Dowager started to praise, and she couldn't stop talking.

The emperor left silently, poor Shi Niang!

"What is the flower banquet?" the emperor asked hurriedly.

"It's very elegant to use flowers in the meal," the eunuch beside said softly.

"Let's go eat too." The emperor decided to go and have a meal.

The eunuch opened his mouth, but closed it silently.

There were still separate tables in the eldest princess's house. Shi Niang sat obediently at the bottom. She looked at the dishes on the table and raised her head, "Four Niang seems to have made some new changes. I feel that the fragrance of flowers is more intense."

"You have been eating vegetarian food in the palace for a while, which is very good. It just cleans up the texture. Now it is time to nourish the six organs with the fragrance of flowers." The fourth lady nodded and motioned for her to start eating.

"That..." Shiniang looked at the fragrant flowers and she really didn't dare to eat.

"Can this be eaten?" A head came over.

"Yes..." Shi Niang was about to say something. She raised her head and knelt down immediately, "Uncle, what are you doing here?"

"I've heard of having a flower banquet, but never seen it." The emperor waved to the others, "Pingshen, I'm just here to eat."

Instead of sitting in the seat vacated by the eldest princess, she sat next to Shi Niang and motioned for everyone to sit down while Nanny Mi went to add a pair of bowls and chopsticks.

"Your Majesty, what you are wearing should not be worn for a banquet." A cold voice said.

"What's wrong with me?" His Majesty the Emperor saw that he was not wearing a dragon robe, just ordinary clothes. He raised his head and looked at the person opposite. The real mother-in-law is the best embroiderer in the world, the wife of the Zhao family. I know her, but I didn't say anything.

Talked.

"It means it's a bit expensive and difficult to clean." Shi Niang looked at the material and nodded, "This material is very rare. Aunt Mi, please bring uncle a blouse. It's really dirty. It's a pity."

"Yes!" Aunt Mi quickly stepped back.

"What is this?" The emperor pointed to a dish.

"Chrysanthemum vegetarian crab, today is the fifteenth, and Fourth Mother will not let me eat anything else." She picked it up, caught it on a plate, and fed it into the emperor's mouth, carefully avoiding his robe.

"Is this delicious?" The emperor chewed and thought about it and looked at Shi Niang.

"Of course it's delicious. Si Niang specially designed it for me." Shi Niang quickly turned around and smiled sweetly at Si Niang, picked up a piece of something and put it in her mouth.

My office was requisitioned today, which is so annoying.
