The High Gate Mistress of Rebirth

Li Ling waved his hand and replied: "Brother Xuan doesn't want it, and I don't want to force him." He looked at his wife and asked: "It's okay if you don't choose to be your bedmate, but you can't be vague about choosing the princess. You told me a while ago I said Brother Xuan has taken a liking to Sister Xue, have you mentioned this to Ah Chen and Lizhu?"

Jing Shu replied: "I mentioned this matter to my cousin and cousin-in-law." As she said that, she sighed slightly: "I just heard from their tone that they don't want Sister Xue to enter the palace."

She added with emotion: "My cousin only has a daughter, so she must be worried that her daughter will be wronged."

Li Ling replied: "Sister Xue is your niece, and brother Xuan is a sensible child, how could he be wronged?"

"Brother Xuan will inherit the throne in the future, and how many emperors are not concubines? As long as someone only truly loves their children, who would want their daughter to live like that." Jing Shu glanced at Li Ling and complained. : "You are such a careless person."

Li Ling was not annoyed at all by his wife's complaints. He stared at her with a smile on his face: "Although I am a careless person, I can find such a delicate and good wife like you. It shows that I am lucky."

The husband and wife were chatting here, when the female officer outside came in, saying that some children had come to invite him unconsciously, Li Ling restrained the laughter he had just had when he faced his wife, and replied: "Please come in."

After a while, a few children came in, Dalang went to Xunchengsi, and the other four Hu family sons all came together, counting the prince, Princess Bao and Ji'er, there were a total of ten people, and the originally quiet pepper room The palace suddenly became lively.

Everyone greeted Li Lingjingshu, and Li Ling asked about their academic status today, and then ordered them to go about their business, leaving only the prince behind.

After everyone left, before Li Lingjingshu could speak, the prince asked his parents: "My father, the emperor, and my mother left me behind, but do you want to talk to me about choosing a concubine?"

Li Ling smiled and replied: "You are in tune with us." After teasing his son, Li Ling asked directly: "Choosing a wife is a big deal, what do you think about it?"

Jing Shu originally thought that her young son would be embarrassed when he was suddenly asked about this matter, but Brother Xuan simply replied: "I have already told my mother that I only like Cousin Jiang's cousin, Sister Xue."

Li Ling nodded slightly, then turned to look at his wife. Jingshu understood, and she implicitly said to her son: "It's just that your cousin and aunt seem to have some scruples. They don't really want your cousin to enter the palace."

Brother Xuan is a very transparent and intelligent young man. He frowned slightly after hearing what his mother said, and then replied: "But are uncle and aunt worried that my cousin will be wronged when she enters the palace?"

Although Brother Xuan's temperament is more similar to that of his father, he is more delicate than Li Ling.

Jingshu nodded: "You are right."

Brother Xuan asked: "What about my cousin? Did uncle and uncle ask her what she meant?"

If Brother Xuan is not the crown prince, he will not have to bear the responsibility of the king of a country in the future, and will not be forced by ministers to follow the family law and accept the three palaces and six courtyards. In fact, a man like him should be a woman's best husband.

Brother Xuan has a good character, is smart and motivated, and although his temperament is colder, he is gentle to the people around him. The most important thing is that his attitude towards love is the same as his father's, very dedicated and honest.

Such a man should be the husband that thousands of girls dream of, but Jing Shu really doesn't know what her niece Xue Jie'er is thinking.

She pondered for a while, and replied truthfully: "Although Sister Xue is the niece of my mother's mother, such things can only be asked by her parents. Yes." Brother Xuan breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and bowed deeply to his parents: "Thank you, father, the queen, the queen is worried about her son."

When Li Ling saw this, she frowned slightly and asked, "Are you just going to give up like this?"

Brother Xuan replied: "Since I still don't know what my cousin is thinking, I naturally won't give up like this."

Li Ling smiled, and replied: "It's just that parents have been the ones to make decisions about children's marriage since ancient times. If your uncle and aunt don't agree on this matter, even if Sister Xue is willing, I'm afraid it will be difficult."

Brother Xuan replied unhurriedly: "Didn't my father often teach me in the past, 'Nothing is difficult in this world, only those who are willing to do so', I must try my best to do this." As she said that, she looked at Jingshu again. , explained: "Don't worry, mother, your son knows what's appropriate and will definitely not do anything that would damage the reputation of his cousin."

In the Duke's Mansion, Xu Wanning and Li Xian were also discussing the marriage of their son Ping Geer.

Xu Wanning couldn't help complaining to her husband: "I have proposed many girls to this bastard, and I don't know what the child thinks. Every time I mention it to him, he always disagrees."

While talking, Xu Wanning couldn't help worrying and said: "You said that this kid is not young anymore, there are all rooms in the house at his age, but he doesn't seem to understand this at all, oops! You say Could it be that our brother Ping has some hidden illness?"

"Shut up." Li Xian rolled his eyes at his wife and said with a sullen expression, "Are you such a mother-in-law? Talking about your son like this."

Xu Wanning said angrily, "Aren't I anxious seeing him like this? Oh! This kid never makes me worry. If he was half as sensible as Brother Kun, I wouldn't be so worried."

Speaking of the eldest son, Li Xian asked his wife: "Dongqing is going to find Brother Kun, have you prepared all the affairs? When do you plan to leave?"

"Everything is ready. I plan to leave the day after tomorrow. His Majesty happened to have sent several courtiers to Yuzhou. Pei Yunqian is also among this group of people. I have entrusted him to ask Dong Qing to go with them, so that I can feel more at ease. ." After saying that, Xu Wanning couldn't help but sigh: "You said this brother Kun is also strange. He used to be so obsessed with his bride and spent a year fighting abroad. I thought he might be homesick for some reason, but it didn't happen. I think this kid actually invited himself to stay there, hey! I really don’t know what he thinks.”

She frowned, and said doubtfully to her husband: "Tell me, could it be that these two children had some conflicts? Dongqing is such a calm person, why did she suddenly want to go looking for Brother Kun regardless."

Li Xian glared at his wife and replied: "Brother Kun and Dong Qing are both adults, and they are both calm people. Even if there is a conflict between them, let them resolve it themselves. Don't get involved. It would be bad for outsiders to interfere in the affairs between husband and wife."

"I know." Xu Wanning rolled her eyes at her husband and said displeasedly: "I don't have this sense of propriety yet."

Li Xian said again: "Brother Kun and Dong Qing, you don't have to worry about it. Just worry about Brother Ping. He can't do anything in literature or martial arts. If you can arrange a marriage for him early and have a wife to restrain him, you can also make him happy." He's determined."

The couple were talking when Brother Ping swaggered into the house. When Xu Wanning saw her youngest son, she said angrily: "How come such a grown-up person is so ignorant of etiquette and doesn't know how to let people know when he comes in?"

"There was no one outside, so I came in by myself." As he said that, Brother Ping grinned at his mother and said in a joking tone: "Fortunately, I came in by myself, so I could overhear what you and your father just said. conversation.”

He glanced at his father, then at his mother, and said calmly: "Don't worry, mother, I don't have any hidden diseases. The reason why I look down on the relatives you told me about is because I already have someone in my heart."
