Chitose words

To the east of Zhaoge City is the Princess Pingyang Mansion.

The eldest princess of Pingyang, Fu Jinglin, was served by several male attendants. She washed her face with fresh milk stained with flower petals, then leaned on the couch and said with a lazy and delicate frown:
"I heard from the eldest sister today that His Majesty seems to be interested in marrying Princess Ning'an recently. I heard that it is a rare and good marriage.

Even if Your Majesty doesn't care about the face of this palace, doesn't he also care about Minghebai's achievements in obeying orders and following the lead in the past two years?
If you let that humble girl get married before me, how can I lose my face? "

The eldest princess of Ning'an, Fu Jingshan, was the fourth daughter of the late Emperor Wei.

His biological mother, Mrs. Jiang, was originally a maidservant with a very low status. She was never favored in the palace when the late emperor was in power.

It was not until the eldest princess Ning'an reached nine years old that the late emperor reluctantly gave her biological mother some dignity and granted her the position of Xiao Zhaoyi, which did not stir up much publicity.

Later, when the late emperor became seriously ill, the eldest princess Ning'an served her sick every day with utmost filial piety, which earned her some favor from the late emperor.

What's more, the late emperor was already old at that time, and his heart was much softer than when he was young.

Although the Jiang family was the "stain" on Meng Lang when he was young, in the end, Jiang Zhaoyi was named Jiang's concubine on the sickbed.

When the new emperor Jingdi Fu Jingyan ascended the throne, the former emperor's concubine naturally became the concubine Jiang, and she was able to survive.

Emperor Jing Fu Jingyan married the new queen Xiaobai two years ago, and the new queen Xiaobai took charge of all affairs in the six palaces in the harem.

Although I don't know whether it is true or not, Empress Xiaobai usually behaves cautiously and kindly, and is respected by the concubines and concubines in the late emperor's harem.

Therefore, Concubine Jiang was blessed in old age and no longer had to make a living under the mean Concubine Bai Gui.

However, the eldest princess of Ning'an, Fu Jingshan, was not favored when she was a child. Except for the first day of the first lunar month when the palace was attending a banquet, she had almost no chance to meet the holy face.

Therefore, this princess, whose father did not love her mother, developed a cowardly, soft-spoken, and small-minded personality since she was a child.

Let’s look at Princess Pingyang, the third princess from the Minghe Bai clan of the Southern Dynasties. She was a domineering and charming girl who even Queen Xie and Princess Tianchen dared not look down upon when she was a child. Naturally, she looked down upon the humble and humble biological mother. The weak and bullied fourth sister.

But now things have changed. Princess Pingyang, who had always been proud and arrogant, was still an unmarried Yunying in the year [-]. Her love affair with Li Suhe's eldest son made everyone in Zhaoge City aware of it. I didn't see His Majesty personally agree to the marriage.

On the contrary, her younger sister Fu Jingshan, who was superior to her in every aspect, was only 16 years old and was about to be married by the emperor.

Princess Pingyang heard the hints in the words of Princess Taiping, the eldest sister who married into the Bai family, and it seemed that the marriage to which Princess Ning'an was about to be promised was a very good one.

Is this okay?

She simply couldn't bear it anymore!
Your Majesty, what does he mean?
"I, my sister, are still waiting to be married, but that little girl Fu Jingshan is getting married.

Why does the imperial brother favor one over the other? Isn't this going to make the entire Tianchen Dynasty criticize me? "

An Yuzhi was shocked when he heard this, he quickly stopped and said:
"——Your Highness, please be careful what you say!"

Princess Pingyang sneered:

"What are you afraid of? This is my own palace. Are you still afraid that someone will go to Brother Huang to inform you?"

The Way of Peace: "Your Highness, in order to win over the military generals, your Majesty has been taking care of them and treating them favorably.

Li Suhe, the nine-door admiral, is still useful in the government, and your Majesty will definitely take care of him.but."

He thought for a while and then said: "Princess Ning'an's mother's family has no power and power, and it is extremely easy to manipulate her.

If His Majesty really promises her a good marriage, she and Concubine Jiang will no longer have any second thoughts about bowing down to her, and will become a good chess piece for His Majesty to win over the powerful."

Princess Pingyang smiled coldly, and she casually took off a priceless gold and jade phoenix hairpin from her hair, and then threw it on the ground beside the bed without any care.

"On the one hand, you care about the face of that old man Li Suhe, but with your Majesty's move, doesn't it mean that you are trying to kill the cunning lackey of our Bai family?"

An Xunzhi paused slightly, he looked up at Princess Pingyang's face, and reminded him:

"Your Highness, after all, your surname is Fu."

"Tsk, I would also like to have the surname Fu, but do the emperors and the others regard us as sisters?

However, our Majesty has always been cold and cold, and he does not feel strange no matter what he does. " An Yunzhi knelt before the collapse, picked up the phoenix hairpin that Princess Pingyang had thrown away, and carefully placed it back on the dressing table beside the bed.

Then he advised: "Your Royal Highness, it seems you should make plans early."

Princess Pingyang said thoughtfully: "I heard that the emperor wants to give Fu Jingshan a military general's family?
I have rarely been involved in court affairs. I wonder if there have been any outstanding rising stars among our Tianchen military attache family recently? "

An Yuzhi: "If we talk about military generals, there are a few, but there are not many who are the right age for Princess Ning'an.

After much thought, Nuo Zhi decided that the 23-year-old Langya Pass guard, General Peng Xiao, the son of Chongzhou Jiedushi Peng Tingyi, was the most suitable. "

"Guardian of Langya Pass?"

Princess Pingyang frowned.

"My eldest sister heard that we have a good relationship, but is a mere border guard worthy of being a princess?"

An Yuzhi smiled gently.

"Your Highness, this young general is not someone else. He is a disciple of Xie Huanchen, one of the 'Three Heroes of the Xie Family' who was famous in the past.

Not only that, the Peng family is also the most prominent family in Chongzhou.As the youngest son in the clan, he has a very noble status. "

"Oh?"

Princess Pingyang became interested.

"If this is the case, then the identity of General Peng Xiao and the Ning'an shown by Huanyi are not only enough, but even a little unfair to him.

Most of the people of the Xie family in Xunyang are born with a certain color. I think they have good taste in recruiting apprentices. They won't pick crooked melons and cracked jujubes, right?

I wonder what General Peng looks like. Is he handsome? "

An Xunzhi poured a pot of wine for Princess Pingyang in a leisurely manner. Princess Pingyang always had the habit of drinking wine from Xijiang before going to bed. It is said that it has the effect of beautifying the girl's appearance and longevity.

He smiled and replied: "General Peng Xiao has always been known as the 'jade-faced young general' in the army. I guess his appearance is not bad either."

"Pity."

Princess Pingyang smiled coldly.

"Since he is a disciple of General Xie Huanchen among the 'Three Heroes of the Xie Family', he is probably a direct descendant of the Xie Family Army, so it is difficult to win over him.

It seems that Xie Huanzhang, the king of Xunyang County, is used to the idle clouds and wild cranes, and it is difficult for him to be used in the military. Therefore, my royal brother plans to find another way to control the military power from the side of Xie's army from his old subordinates. "

An Yunzhi paused, with tender admiration in his eyes, and said softly:

"It's not necessarily Yi Xun's humble opinion. Since ancient times, heroes have struggled with beauty. With His Highness so stunningly beautiful, even a warrior with a heart as hard as stone, I'm afraid it would be difficult not to fall in love with His Highness."

"Forget it."

Princess Pingyang thought for a while, then shook her head slightly and said casually:
"My imperial brother appears to be kind and kind, but in fact he is the most arbitrary person with a sacred heart and does not tolerate disobedience from others.

Since he has already planned to use Fu Jingshan to win over Peng Xiao, if I forcefully interfere in this matter and spoil His Majesty's good deeds, I'm afraid there will be no good fruits in the future.It would be safer to keep an eye on one family. "

An Yuzhi thought for a moment and tentatively said:
"Your Highness the Princess is referring to"

She lowered her hands and looked at An Yunzhi with a smile.

"Master Li Suining, what are you doing recently?"

Princess Pingyang smiled softly, but unfortunately her smile was full of malice.

“I suddenly feel that indulging the Li family in the past went too far.

Tomorrow you will go with me to my grandfather's house. It's time for the two elders to sit down and talk about the marriage between me and Mr. Li and put it on the agenda. "
