After Mrs. Yu left, Concubine De still didn't react.
After being stunned for a long time, she asked her confidant the eldest palace maid: "Why did she agree? It's just that there will inevitably be concubines and concubines. Wouldn't it be a shame to enter the house on the same day?"
The eldest maid was also confused: "Is it possible that Mrs. Yu really has such a consciousness?"
Thinking about it more carefully, it is indeed strange that Mrs. Yu, a fierce woman, has a daughter who adheres to etiquette and is as rigid as an old master.
"Perhaps we are overthinking it." Concubine De thought about it and finally concluded, "I think the Yu family has long had the ambition to become a successful person, so they raised their daughter like this. How is being a royal wife like an ordinary person? You have to face it after all.
In the Three Palaces and Sixth Courtyard, why bother being like Mrs. Yu herself, who can’t get rid of the sand in her eyes, and will eventually suffer when the time comes.”
The eldest maid nodded in agreement.
But this is not good news for Concubine De.
Mrs. Yu has no objection at all. Do she really want to watch Miss Xu San become the Crown Prince Liangdi? Then her Shaoer...
The eldest palace maid came up with an idea: "My Lady, have you heard of that rumor?"
"What?"
"About Young Master Yan."
Concubine De remembered.
"That day at Daguangming Temple, the two of them disappeared at the same time. There have been rumors. I think about Mr. Yan. When he heard that Miss Xu San fell into the water, he jumped down to save her without hesitation. If you say you don't like her, I will never believe it."
Concubine De sighed: "I also know this, but Your Majesty is determined to deal with it coldly, so what can you do?"
According to her, if something like that happened, they could just get married. Being able to rush downstream together meant that they had been together all this time, and they must have seen each other's unseemly side, but they just didn't let everyone see it.
The eldest palace maid said: "What I mean is that since they are interested in each other, why don't the queen give me a push? If the second young master Yan goes to propose marriage, it will naturally have nothing to do with the queen."
Concubine De shook her fan and said thoughtfully: "Is this okay? How dare Yan Er do such a thing?"
The eldest palace lady smiled and said: "My dear, have you forgotten the previous rumors? This second young master Yan is not a well-behaved boy. He is also like a little overlord in Guanzhong, from Duke Zhao, his wife to Duke Zhao's son.
, they all pampered him as if they were nothing, giving him whatever he asked for since he was a child. He came to Beijing and behaved so well, partly because of His Majesty's power, and partly because he didn't lack anything. He was pleased with Miss Xu San
, His Majesty wants to marry her to someone else, how do you think he would react? Can Your Majesty ignore it?"
Of course not! Concubine De was quite sure of the emperor's thoughts. For example, he did not hesitate to punish Concubine Shu earlier because he was worried about angering Duke Zhao. As for handling the matter coldly afterwards, he really didn't want to
The Yan and Xu families are involved, but what if Yan Er brings this matter to the table?
After thinking about it, Concubine De said decisively: "Hurry up and pass the news over."
The eldest maid responded: "Yes."
…
Under Concubine De's order, the news was quickly delivered to the palace.
Yan Ling immediately went to the restaurant where he usually went to watch plays, and then asked someone to go around and invite Xu Yin.
"Mrs. Yu actually agreed?" Xu Yin was stunned.
She really didn't expect this result.
Miss Yu did become a crown princess in her previous life, but Xu Yin didn't pay attention to the capital, so she didn't know if there was such a thing as entering the palace on the same day.
But Mrs. Yu’s reaction is wrong! She only has a daughter, and she cherishes it very much. She knows that she doesn’t want her husband to take concubines, so her daughter doesn’t matter? Furthermore, the Yu family is not without any room for objection.
He has a lot of troops at his disposal, and if he opposes it with all his strength, the emperor will not dare to go his own way!
Isn't choosing Miss Yu as the Crown Princess just to win over Yu Chong?
"Not only did she not object, she also agreed. Concubine De originally proposed to hold a flower viewing banquet in the palace, invite ladies from various families over, and ask the Yu family to carefully select, and no matter who they choose, they must nod. Now it's amazing
Well, there is no need to hold this flower viewing banquet at all, Madam Yu said that Your Majesty and Your Majesty will make the decision."
After Yan Ling finished speaking, she felt like she was holding a breath in her chest.
What is this? Ever since he came to the capital, he has been pretending to be his grandson, and he has not made it easy for him!
Xu Yin frowned tightly: "If something goes wrong, it must be a monster. There must be a reason for the Yu family's reaction."
Yan Ling responded, remembering what he saw while watching, and hurriedly said: "By the way, do you know who I found when I watched Yu Chong?"
"who?"
"Xue Ru!" Yan Ling said, "Yu Chong pretended to be drinking with his colleagues, but it was actually her he met."
Xu Yin was startled for a moment, but he was not too surprised. Xue Ru had used this trick in Nanyuan. When he met Fang Yi, it was just like this. But the meaning behind it had to be taken seriously.
"Prince Duan sent someone to seduce him!" Xu Yin said decisively, "It seems that the two of them have colluded, so this matter..."
Did Prince Duan want her to marry the prince? Could it be that the spies who had been watching her recently seemed to be the work of Prince Duan's palace.
But why? What benefit does it bring to Prince Duan if she marries the prince?
While he was thinking about it, he heard Yan Ling say angrily: "His Majesty is just pretending to be confused. We disappeared together that day. Everyone knows that we have a close relationship, and he came up with such a trick. Isn't he afraid that I will fall out with the prince?"
?"
These words reminded Xu Yin, and she suddenly understood: "That's it!"
"What?"
Xu Yin said: "King Duan wants to make you and the prince fall out."
Yan Ling was startled for a moment, thought about the matter, and suddenly smiled: "There are so many people who want us to fall out with each other! Concubine De sent a message secretly, just to ask me to make trouble and make the prince unable to marry you. At the same time,
It also made us fall out. Now that there is another King Duan, it turns out that so many people don't like me."
Xu Yin nodded and started to stay again. Prince Duan's motive makes sense, but what is the purpose of the Yu family? Miss Yu has become the crown princess, and Yu Chong will be the father-in-law of the country in the future. He must be a great minister. There is no reason to help Prince Duan.
Ah! Is it possible that Xue Ru's charm is so great? Or does he have some unknown secret that Prince Duan holds?
After much thought, Xu Yin still preferred the latter. Yu Chong must have a secret that no one should know.
Yan Ling went back and forth, and the more she thought about it, the angrier she became: "Every one of them doesn't want to make it easy for me. They can only hold it in while they look at me, right? Since I entered Beijing, I have been low-key enough on weekdays, and yet I let them bully me to the end.
Come up! No!"
He slapped the case and stood up, startling Xu Yin: "What are you doing?"
Yan Ling grinded his teeth and said, "Don't they want me to make a fuss? Okay, then I'll make a fuss for them to see! I want to see if they can tolerate it!"
At this point, he sneered: "What a bunch of idiots, don't they want to make me and the prince fall out? I'll let them see if the prince will fall out with me!"
