Chapter 269 Another one coming

After walking out the door, Ye Yu'an said to Ning Youbei: "Youbei, thank you!"

Ning Youbei's expression was much lighter than when facing Mrs. Ye:
"I didn't tell Brother Huang that you were Jiayi, but I told Brother Huang that you did something to help Ning Youdi in order to avenge your father."

Ye Yu'an said sincerely: "No matter what, I still want to thank you!"

Ye Yu'an sent Ning Youbei to the gate. After Ning Youbei walked for a long time, he kept staring at the direction Ning Youbei left.

……

After returning to the house, Ye Taifu asked Ye Yu'an: "What's the matter between you and King Chu?"

Ye Yu'an was a little depressed: "I have done a lot of things for Ning Youdi these years, and Youbei knows about it."

Mrs. Ye sighed:
"Since the emperor is still willing to use you, you will concentrate on doing things for the court in the future. Don't be too attached to revenge. It is more important than anything else for you to live well."

Ye Yu'an responded in a low voice.

Yudu Palace
While Ning Youbei was recuperating at home, the emperor received a secret letter.

The emperor held the secret letter and walked slowly.

This secret letter was written by Dongfang Sheng, the owner of Lingxiao Pavilion, to the emperor.

The content of the letter is to ask the emperor to suggest a marriage for his only daughter Dongfang Ying in the name of Ling Xiaoge's contribution to the court.

This matter seems not difficult to say, but it is not so easy to satisfy Dongfang Sheng.

The reason why Dongfang Sheng wrote this letter to the emperor was because of his consideration.

Dongfang Ying is his only daughter, but Dongfang Ying has no talent in martial arts, and has no ability to take over the Ling Xiao Pavilion at all.And Dongfang Yucai is the next High Heaven Pavilion Master trained by Dongfang Sheng.

Dongfang Yu has worshiped Dongfang Sheng as his teacher since he was a child, and he is not much different from Dongfang Sheng's biological son. Originally, Dongfang Yu could marry Dongfang Ying.

It's a pity that although Dongfang Yu is very kind to Dongfang Ying, he has no affection for Dongfang Ying, and Dongfang Ying also doesn't like Dongfang Yu.

After much deliberation, the owner of the Dongfang Pavilion decided to marry Dongfang Ying into the official family.It is best to be a family with no real power but a title.

In any case, the status of an official is always better than that of a person from the rivers and lakes.

However, Dongfang Sheng couldn't express his true intentions, so he could only show his loyalty to the emperor and ask the emperor to marry him.

The emperor stopped after walking slowly for a few laps. He asked Eunuch Rong: "The owner of the Dongfang Pavilion in Lingxiao Pavilion wants me to marry his daughter. Who do you think I can point her to?"

Eunuch Rong smiled bitterly and said:

"Your Majesty, isn't it a slap in the face for you to ask this old slave? How can this old slave, a rootless person, understand the thoughts of these little children?"

Naturally, the emperor didn't really ask Eunuch Rong for his opinion, he just wanted to talk to someone.

Youbei's injury hasn't healed yet, and he didn't go to court, so there are fewer visits to the palace, and the emperor feels quite lonely.

Seeing the emperor pondering, Eunuch Rong said tentatively: "Concubine Xian is in charge of the affairs of the harem now, why not leave this matter to her?"

Hearing what Eunuch Rong said, the emperor thought it was a good idea.

"Let's go to Concubine Xian's Palace."

Concubine Xian is in charge of the harem now. Although the affairs of the harem are complicated, she has a lot of difficulties in her chest. She handles affairs in an orderly manner, follows the rules, and is impartial. It is much better than when the empress was in charge of the harem.It also convinced the palace people.

She had just finished dealing with today's affairs, and she only had two bites of refreshments when she heard the servant report that the emperor had arrived.

Concubine Xian put down the cake in her hand, tidied her clothes, and went out to welcome her.

"Your Majesty, you are here."

Concubine Xian spoke naturally and fluently, as if the emperor often came over.In fact, the emperor came here very little time.

The emperor said: "My concubine has been working hard recently, I came here specially to see you."

Concubine Xian replied with a smile: "Your Majesty is concerned, thanks to His Majesty's love, the concubines will naturally do their best to share His worries."

Neither show credit nor thank you.

Eunuch Rong listened at the side and said in his heart: No wonder Concubine Xian can always be looked at differently by the emperor, she is really a smart person, seeing how she behaves and speaks properly, it couldn't be more appropriate.

After talking a few gossips, the emperor will speak in the future.

"Ling Xiao Pavilion has indeed done a lot of things for me, and it has also contributed to the court. I should naturally agree to the request of the owner of Dongfang Pavilion. But how do I know which one is suitable? That's why I came to ask my concubine to share my worries."

Concubine Xian asked: "Does the owner of Dongfang Pavilion have a favorite family?"

"No, it's because he didn't say anything that I find it difficult."

If Dongfang Sheng really mentions the family he wants to marry, I'm afraid the emperor will think too much about it.

Concubine Xian thought for a while and said:

"The concubine looked at the meaning of Dongfang Pavilion Master. I am afraid that she feels sorry for her daughter and wants her to live a more stable and smooth life in the future. In this case, it is better to find Dongfang girl in the homes of those nobles.

Of course, the Dongfang girl was born in Jianghu after all, so I'm afraid it's not suitable for the eldest daughter-in-law of the first wife, but those second sons, youngest sons, or eldest sons who are not from the first wife who have good character and good temper are all suitable. "

After hearing what Concubine Xian said, the emperor also felt that it was reasonable.

Seeing that the emperor had no intention of objecting, Concubine Xian continued.

"But since it's a marriage, there must be a mutual agreement.

The concubine thought that it would be better to bring the Oriental girl to Yudu first. The concubine asked her brother to recognize her as a foster daughter, and then asked her sister-in-law to hold a banquet and invite suitable people to see each other, so that it would be a matter of course. "

After hearing Concubine Xian's detailed explanation, the emperor felt that it was very good to act like this.

Although Ling Xiao Pavilion is a sect of Jianghu, it is still a big force. If Dongfang Ying married a family in power, the emperor would really not be so relieved.

If you marry an oriental girl into a family that looks good on the surface but has no real power, you don't have to worry about Ling Xiaoge betraying yourself.

And according to what Concubine Xian said, letting the Marquis of Kang'an recognize Dongfang girl as a righteous daughter is not only to show face to the owner of Dongfang Pavilion, but also to reassure him.

The Kang'anhou Mansion is also a family that looks noble but has no real power.

Although Kang Anhou and Kang Anhou's son held positions in the imperial court, they were only idle positions and had nothing to do with the lifeline of the imperial court.But because of the presence of a virtuous concubine, no one dared to underestimate the Kang'an Hou Mansion.

Thinking about it this way, the emperor is delighted.

"My concubine, you really handled these matters properly. According to what you said, I sent someone to bring the Oriental girl to Yudu."

Concubine Xian said:
"Since my brother recognizes Miss Dongfang as his adopted daughter, it's better for the Marquis of Kang'an to send someone to pick her up. The concubine's nephew is not currently holding a real job in the court, so it's better to let him take someone to pick her up."

"Who is the nephew you speak of?"

"It's Gu Liangfei, the concubine's brother's son-in-law."

The emperor searched for Gu Liangfei in his mind, but he had some impression that he was a rather stable young man.

"Ai Concubine, according to your words, let your nephew take the people from the Kang'an residence to the Lingxiao Pavilion. After your nephew finishes this errand, let him take a real job in the court."

Concubine Xian stood up and saluted, "The concubine will first thank His Majesty for my nephew."
