Crazy! Crazy batch of chief ministers reduced to subordinates

Ye Zhi came in and said that the second girl had come back, but she went directly back to Qingaiyuan.

Mrs. Yun raised her eyebrows and asked, "Is she angry? She doesn't even want to recognize her parents?"

Ye Zhi said seriously: "No, madam, you are overthinking. I have asked Wan Yue that the second girl is tired and wants to go back to sleep, and then come back to greet the father-in-law and his wife during meal time."

Xu Zhaoting asked hurriedly: "Did Wan Yue tell me where Beisheng went early in the morning?"

Ye Zhi shook his head, "The people around the second girl are very strict. They take the initiative to say what should be said, but they won't say anything that shouldn't be said even to death."

Xu Zhaoting chuckled, "This girl grew up in the countryside. She is very proficient in the art of imperial control. Everyone around her is completely determined."

Mrs. Yun sighed repeatedly, "The more this happens, the harder it is for us to know her true thoughts. I think she recognizes us on her lips, but treats us as outsiders in her heart."

Xu Zhaoting patted Mrs. Yu's arm and said, "Madam, you are too worried. Why did Beisheng ever treat us like outsiders?"

Mrs. Yun lowered her eyes, feeling sour and uneasy in her heart, and said softly: "Mrs. Marquis Gao Yang told me that the young Marquis gave Beisheng a two-story jewelry building as a birthday gift, saying that her son spent all his money on it. Savings. I was stunned on the spot. Has Bei Sheng ever told you or me about this?"

Xu Zhaoting was also confused and couldn't believe it, "What? What kind of two-story jewelry building? The engagement has been broken off, and his family still slanders Beisheng like this?"

Mrs. Yun glared at him, "I asked about it and went to see it myself. It's in the North Street Alley. It's called Yu Linglong Pavilion. Even the words on the door plaque were inscribed by Lang Zhuo!"

Xu Zhaoting stroked his beard and listened, then suddenly smiled and said, "I didn't expect that our Beisheng would be able to get someone to give her a building. That guy Daoyuan is quite conscientious and generous!"

Mrs. Yun couldn't help but rolled her eyes, "Where did your father-in-law go? Beisheng didn't reveal anything about such a big thing!"

Xu Zhaoting chuckled, "She is a big girl, and it is normal to have her own secrets. Nanyin grew up beside Madam, so Madam may not know everything about her."

Mrs. Yun couldn't talk to Xu Zhaoting, so she simply stopped talking.

Anyway, neither of the two daughters is worry-free or considerate. Each has its own thoughts and evil intentions!

Bei Sheng slept for nearly an hour, got up, freshened up for a while, and then went to Mei Xiangju.

Xu Zhaoting had a lot to say, but looking at her haggard and tired look from the long days of traveling, he didn't know what to say.

After finishing lunch and clearing the table, Xu Zhaoting said: "Beisheng will enter the palace to participate in the selection of the crown prince. Although this matter has become a certainty, if Beisheng has other ideas, his father can also enter the palace to present to His Majesty. Pushed this matter."

Not only Bei Sheng was stunned, but also Madam Yun and Nan Yin were stunned.

Bei Sheng raised his eyes and looked at Xu Zhaoting, unsure of what his father meant.

It’s not like her father didn’t know that she didn’t want to enter the palace. If it could be proven to His Majesty that he had rejected the matter, then why didn’t she go to the palace to see His Majesty earlier?

However, she only thought about such complaints in her mind and never said them out loud.

Nanyin lowered his eyes and smiled, and said lightly: "Father, don't say such words to disturb Beisheng's heart. You know it's impossible, so why bother!"

Mrs. Yun pulled Nan Yin to signal her not to talk nonsense, but Nan Yin continued to go her own way: "My daughter didn't say anything wrong, why did mother pull me?"

Xu Zhaoting sighed slightly and did not blame Nanyin.

He didn't know how difficult this matter was. He had no son to inherit the title. He only had two daughters. If one of them became the queen, the glory of the Xu family could continue.

Therefore, when Lang Zhuo rejected Nan Yin and proposed to let Bei Sheng into the palace, Xu Zhaoting spoke for Bei Sheng, but in his heart he was thinking about his family.

Looking at her daughter with a tired look on her face, it seemed that if she didn't ask those words, she would have nowhere to vent her guilt towards Bei Sheng.

Bei Sheng thought for a while and asked, "What does father want to hear from his daughter? If I say that I don't want to enter the palace, will father really meet and resign to Your Majesty?"

Xu Zhaoting was silent and didn't speak. Neither of his daughters was wrong. He couldn't do it. Bei Sheng's nose felt sore when she saw her father's silent expression.

She knew what her father was thinking as early as when she received her father's first eight-hundred-mile urgent reply letter.

She doesn't blame her father. That's how a big family is. The family's interests are greater than personal interests, or even greater than an individual's life.

Mrs. Yun saw that Bei Sheng's expression was wrong and she hurriedly smoothed things over: "It was Mr. Lang who suggested that you enter the palace, but if His Majesty agrees, Mr. Lang will not say anything."

"Hmph!" Nan Yin covered her mouth in amusement, "My father can't even handle Master Lang, how can he handle Your Majesty? The Crown Prince returned to the capital with his life, which is a piece of meat on His Majesty's heart. Your Majesty can't tolerate the Crown Prince and us. The family marriage will allow the father's Xu family army to be used by the prince."

Mrs. Yun glared at Nanyin and once again reminded her to stop talking sarcastically.

Beisheng felt a dull pain in his head. He had already decided on something, so there was no need to argue again and embarrass his parents.

Then he lowered his eyebrows and said, "I have already met Mr. Lang. He asked me to wait at home. When he makes arrangements, I will enter the palace. Dad doesn't need to worry about this anymore."

Bei Sheng was extremely gentle and calm when he spoke, but Xu Zhaoting and Mrs. Yun's hearts tightened.

They couldn't figure out what Bei Sheng was thinking, and they were nervous because they couldn't figure it out.

They wanted Beisheng to state his true wishes in the open, but in the blink of an eye, what would happen if he said it in the open?

The parents couldn't help at all.

Now that the matter has reached this point, Bei Sheng did not have any strong objections. They both buried their concerns deep in their hearts and accepted the matter.

Xu Zhaoting said warmly: "Since you have made up your mind, don't go out anymore in the next few days. Just wait at home with peace of mind."

He turned his eyes to Nanyin and said, "Same for you. You used to have close contact with King Leping. Now Beisheng is going to the palace to participate in the selection of the crown princess. As a father, no matter what conflicts you had before, for the sake of the reputation and safety of the family, please calm down!"

Beisheng listened expressionlessly.

Nanyin smiled lightly, "How dare your daughter disobey her father's teachings."

Mrs. Yun couldn't help but frown as she listened.

As she said, the two daughters looked calm on the surface, but secretly none of them was worried.

The turn of his eyebrows shows his thoughts that others cannot detect.

In the dead of night, she felt a little regretful. When Beisheng proposed to return to Runing, she should have strongly supported it.

But in the daytime, various things got involved, and I felt lucky that she was not allowed to return to Runing. The Xu family needed a capable person to continue its glory.

Undoubtedly, Beisheng is more suitable than Nanyin in terms of temperament and ability.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Yun breathed a sigh of relief.

Finally, Beisheng did not resist, returned to Beijing safely, and agreed to participate in the selection of the crown princess.

The atmosphere in the room was dull and depressing. Bei Sheng stood up and said directly to them: "If father and mother have nothing else to do, my daughter will leave first."

Xu Zhaoting's heart was confused and he nodded dullly, "Okay, let's go and rest."

Bei Sheng did not hesitate, and after bowing, he left the main room of Mei Xiangju.

As soon as Bei Sheng left, Nan Yin didn't stay long. He said a few polite words perfunctorily and withdrew.
