Chapter 81 The Cui family’s thoughts

Yiman took a deep breath, and really didn't understand why she, a concubine, would charm a princess.

Yiman cleared his throat and looked at her with as indifferent eyes as possible, "Xie Caieren might as well say it directly if he has something to say."

Xie Cairen looked at Man Man with a look that seemed angry or strange, "Don't blame me, princess. I have been very close to you since I was a child."

Seeing the eldest princess staring at her impatiently, Xie Cairen sighed inwardly.An ordinary little girl would have blushed and her heartbeat would have turned red when she saw this, and would not have dared to look at her. Why did the eldest princess still seem to be a little disgusted?

"My uncle asked my concubine to say hello to the eldest princess after entering the palace."

Cui Yingfeng, the official minister?
As expected, Xie Cairen entered the palace with a mission from a noble family.

Yiman sneered, "I have never met Mr. Cui before. Why would Mr. Cui say hello to me?"

Xie Cairen's eyes moved with a charming smile, "Uncle said that the eldest princess helped General Cheng, which means she helped several generals in the feudal town. She is the benefactor of the Cui family."

It seems that Cui Yingfeng has seen through this good deal and used his family to exchange for the emperor's peace of mind, thus delaying the resumption of military power.It's just that he has such a big face, and he has to accept the favor of several generals in the feudal town.

Xie Cairen's words were really uncomfortable to hear.

If the emperor heard these words, he would be directly on the opposite side of the emperor.

What's more, the generals of several feudal towns may not thank her for the delay in exchanging family members for military power.

Did Cui Yingfeng regard her as an inexperienced princess in the palace?Do you think that a little coercion and inducement from aristocratic families can make her panic and make her desperate?

He twitched the corner of his mouth with disdain, "Is there no one in the Cui family? Let a fool like you come to win over me. You entered the palace years ago. Didn't you see that I ordered the execution of those people who talked nonsense? Tongue?”

The charming look on Xie Cairen's face faded instantly, his eyes stared blankly at the calm face, and he swallowed nervously.

"Princess. Princess, I made a mistake."

Yi Man stood up and straightened his sleeves, "Go and tell Cui Yingfeng that as a legitimate princess, I live in a deep palace and cannot communicate with foreign ministers in private. I respect him as an important minister and tell him not to be ignorant of the importance, otherwise I will go to my father's house." Please give him a copy before the emperor."

After saying that, he stood up and was about to leave. The frightened Xie Cairen grabbed Yiman's dress in a panic, "Eldest princess, eldest princess, I made a mistake. In fact, what my uncle meant was that the Cui family is willing to marry the eldest princess in Qin and Jin Dynasties. There are many sons in the Cui family, let the eldest princess choose."

As soon as he said this, Yiman became even more contemptuous of Xie Cairen, who only had his charming skin.

Ji Lan stepped forward and patted Xie Cairen's hand away, and straightened Yiman's skirt.

Yiman shook his head slightly, "The Seventh Emperor's sister will marry into the Cui family according to Concubine De's wish before she gets married. Master Cui doesn't know, right? What kind of thing is the Cui family? They want to covet two emperor's daughters. Does the emperor know?"

After saying that, he walked straight out of the hall without even looking at her.

This is in the Hanxiang Palace, where the eleventh prince's secret guards are hidden.Just because Bai Yi wouldn't say it, it didn't mean that the eleventh prince's secret guards wouldn't tell the emperor.

Cui Yingfeng belongs to a wealthy family and is well-informed.Knowing that the royal family's children have secret guards, and deliberately allowing Xie Cairen to win over her, he was clearly trying to harm her.

If she had not refused directly just now, but instead flattered him, she would have been directly opposed to the emperor in the future. She could only rely on the family's charity and struggle to survive in the palace, and the Cui family would have greater leverage with the emperor. Confrontation.

As a bargaining chip of the Cui family, it was sandwiched between the family and the emperor, and had no use value to the emperor.

She will become cannon fodder in the confrontation between the Cui family and the emperor.

Since Cui Yingfeng coaxed her like a three-year-old child, why should she be polite?
As soon as he walked out of the hall, he saw Ji Chong walking out of the side door with an apologetic look.

"I didn't know she wanted to tell you this when she saw you. Please forgive me."

Yiman treats everyone equally and will not be confused by superficiality or superficiality.Whether Ji Chongrong knew about it or not remains to be said.

Yiman smiled lightly and nodded, "Since I have repaid Chongrong's love, I will return to the palace first."

Ji Chongrong hesitated to speak, wanting to explain a few words, but then thought that the eldest princess had a bright mind, so why should she bother with it.He nodded with a smile and sent it out.

Late at night, Cui Yingfeng was still processing official reports from state and county officials.

A gust of cold wind blew in from the window. Cui Yingfeng stroked his beard, frowned, and with a serious look on his face, he weighed the arrangements of the state and county officials.

"Sir, there is news from the palace."

Cui Yingfeng read the Hezhou official newspaper, weighed the pros and cons, then raised his hand and asked the servant to hand over the letter. "Sir, it's already midnight. Go to bed early today. You'll be busy with government affairs. I'm afraid your body won't be able to handle it."

Cui Yingfeng read the letter carefully, burned it, and looked at the servant and scolded him in a low voice, "You talk too much. If you can't be kind to the people, love things, and work hard in government, what else do you want me to do?"

"Yes, yes, I know I was wrong."

Cui Yingfeng looked at the letter burned to ashes with a solemn expression.

Although we must be kind to the people and love things, we must first preserve the foundation of the family before we have the opportunity to serve the people diligently.

I thought the eldest princess was just a little girl who came to the palace from the countryside, but she turned out to be someone who saw things clearly.According to Xie, all those resolute and resolute things were indeed done by the eldest princess.

Such a resolute and exquisite decision-making, it is impossible to marry into Cui's family willingly, let alone being used as a pawn willingly.

The seventh princess is young and has a cruel personality, so it is difficult for her to shoulder the responsibility of Cui's wife.The lintel of the Cui family has had enough glory, and it seems that the seventh princess can only become a bridge with the royal family.

"Go and tell Mrs. Xie to have more contact with Concubine De."

"Yes, I will go and deliver the message."

Qingsi Hall
"Princess, do you think this flower lot looks good?"

Yiman put down the article on flood control and looked up to see Song Guo holding a flower bud in the shape of a squirrel holding a fruit.

Yiman pursed his lips and smiled, "It's really cute. Why did you think of making flower lottery tickets?"

"Princess, your birthday will be in seven days."

Yiman put down his pen and thought about it.

Indeed, according to the date on the jade plate, the birthday is indeed coming soon.But there was no such thing as a birthday in her memory, so she forgot about it.No wonder the prince said he would give her a gift years ago.What I thought was a New Year gift turned out to be a birthday gift.

"Princess, I am thinking that there will definitely be a small banquet in the palace for your birthday. His Majesty the Queen and His Highness the Crown Prince may come by then. It may not be too late to prepare now."

The queen and the crown prince should have people coming to their uterus, but not necessarily the emperor.The emperor must have been angry because he cut out the tongues of palace officials because of the Crown Prince's remarks.Besides, the emperor shouldn't care about a daughter's birthday.

Yiman picked up his pen again and wrote hard, "If there is a reward on your birthday, then it will follow. There is no need to hold a small banquet, saving those vain gifts."

"But it's the princess's 17th birthday."

Yiman raised his head and glanced in the direction of Qingning Palace, "I went to pay homage to my mother on my birthday, and then you guys can help me celebrate my birthday."

Seeing that the eldest princess really had no intention of hosting a small banquet, Song Guo had no choice but to put away the bouquets in disappointment.

Hanzhi came in and saluted, "Princess, the Crown Prince has given you many things. They say they are gifts and I want you to take them in person."

Yiman responded, got up and led a few people to the outer hall.

The father-in-law in charge of the palace bowed and turned aside to look at her, "Princess, these are all, I have resigned."

Yiman looked at the four large wooden boxes placed in the front yard and stepped forward to open them doubtfully.

When I saw that it was full of memorials and letters from official newspapers and newspapers from various places, I was suddenly shocked.

There is also a note on it. I opened it and read it, and wrote: This is a copy of the memorials that my brother has seen over the years. After reading them, they will be returned to the palace.The red cloth covers the memorial that has not been approved this month. My sister wrote the corrections on the paper, inserted it into the memorial, and sent it to the palace of the prince.From now on, you will correct the memorials on people's livelihood every month. My brother will review them and then approve them.

Yiman quickly closed the box and scanned it left and right.Interfering in politics in the harem and receiving a memorial directly is a serious crime of treason.

What Yiman saw was not a gift, but a series of grueling homework assignments.

"Lu Bo, have you seen it?"

Looking sideways, Lu Bo covered his eyes with his fingers, exposing a crack, and shook his head like a rattle.

It seems that he saw it, Yiman said with a kind smile, "Don't be afraid, from now on you will personally deliver the official memorial report every month."

Lu Bo suddenly had a grimace on his face and his legs trembled.
