When the sun was spreading over the earth, the entire palace was shrouded in a touch of golden, with the coolness of the morning, the palace people hurried to the direction of each palace, while at the same time, the atmosphere in the huge Jinluan Palace was solemn.

In the recent salt tax case, the courtiers continued to talk about it. This time, people from the Liu family were involved. They didn't know how the emperor would decide. Last time the Liu Shilang was devalued. They felt that the emperor might start to suppress the Liu family.

"There are many doubts about this matter, so it will be handed over to Prime Minister Lu to investigate and deal with it. We must find out the person who is an official as soon as possible!"

The words of the person on the dragon chair fell, and Prime Minister Lu underneath immediately bowed and stood up, "Weichen must be investigated strictly!"

Seeing this, other people's minds became active in an instant. No one knows that the relationship between Prime Minister Lu and the Liu family is in dire straits. It seems that the emperor is determined to run the Liu family.

There was a lot of discussion underneath, and the person on the dragon chair suddenly chuckled, and said in a straightforward voice: "Last time the admonitions of the Aiqings, I have always kept it in my heart. The crown prince should indeed be a family. I wonder if the Aiqings have the right Candidate?"

The sudden words made all the courtiers stunned. You should know that the emperor had always avoided talking about this matter in the past, but today he took the initiative to mention it. After the shock, who remembers the salt tax, they all stood up and admonished one after another. Words.

"Prince Qi told the emperor, Weichen thought that the crown princess must be dignified and virtuous, without losing the talent and appearance, to convince everyone, and Prime Minister Lu is a unique choice."

It was the minister of rituals who was talking, and then an old Yushi next to him also came out, "The emperor, although Prime Minister Lu's daughter is good, she is known to have a gentle and quiet temperament, but lacks the atmosphere, which may make people unconvincing. The daughter of Liu Shangshu is not only a childhood sweetheart with His Royal Highness, but also has a good temperament and courage. She must be able to set the example in the palaces as well as the empress."

Speaking of this, one person immediately sneered, "Liu Yushi, because you are also a scholar, how can you regard stubbornness as courage? It is really ridiculous and generous, and the daughter of Liu Shangshu doesn't know how to become a prince. Concubine?"

For a while, everyone was arguing. Liu Guozheng stood there calmly, as if it had nothing to do with him, and watched everyone arguing there.

At this moment, an academician of the Hanlin Academy suddenly said: "Master Zhang's words are very bad. The next official listened to Taifu Shen's words. Although Miss Liu has a short enrollment, she is smart and exquisite. Choosing the princess is not the champion. What's the use of a good literary talent?"

Everyone didn't expect that the Liu family's hands had reached the Hanlin Academy. Who knew that Liu Yin was reckless and violent, and did not have the reservedness of a woman's family. How could Taifu Shen say that.

Listening to the quarreling among the people underneath, the person on the dragon chair just said meaningfully: "I think all Aiqing’s proposals are good. Both Lu Aiqing and Liu Aiqing’s daughters have their own merits, but there is only one crown prince, the emperor, how about you? Look?"

Suddenly, everyone turned their attention to the prince, who had been silent for them. No one knew how the prince hated the Liu family's concubine, and how he could marry a rude and violent woman.

In the face of everyone's gaze, Qin Yan suddenly took a step forward and nodded slightly, "The cousin is just honest, and my son... also likes it very much."

When the words fell, the whole hall was silent, and even the breathing was so clear and audible. Everyone looked at their unpredictable Royal Highness the same as seeing a ghost. After a long time, they did not recover.

How could His Royal Highness want to marry a woman like that? !

It must be to win over the Liu family! It must be so!

Don’t say that other people, even Liu Guozheng, who has always had nothing to do with him, has a slight change in his eyes. The biggest stimulus in his life is this moment. I thought it would take a lot of effort to make his daughter a princess. After all, the prince always He refused to accept the Liu Family's goodwill, but when everything came so easy, he felt so untrue!

Of course, he must know that what the prince said was just a matter of skill. It was only because of the Liu family that he was willing to marry his own daughter. He would not even dream of liking his own daughter.

The hall was still so quiet, the emperor looked at the son underneath with deep eyes, and suddenly said, "If this is the case, then the Ministry of Rites will take care of the matter. Choose a good day and get married. As for the daughter of Lu Aiqing... How about the emperor being a concubine?"

The calm voice immediately evoked everyone's attention. Prime Minister Lu immediately said respectfully: "Thank you, the emperor, being a concubine of your highness is naturally a blessing for the ministers and the next family, and a blessing for the little girl to cultivate throughout her life."

Others also quickly echoed, "The emperor Shengming!"

The sound in the hall was deafening, Qin Yan stood there without making a sound, his expression was as light as water, without any waves.

Until the next dynasty, everyone still couldn't guess what the emperor meant. Since he wanted to attack the Liu family, why let Liu Yin become a princess, it was really unpredictable.

And Liu Guozheng had to wait until the next dynasty to throw away the congratulations from his colleagues, and quickly caught up with the prince, while the others in his body also retreated with interest.

When there were no other people around the palace road, Liu Guozheng smiled and gestured to the crown prince, "The empress and the empress did not give a whistle to the minister. His Royal Highness was so sudden, it really scared the minister."

He just wanted to know what the prince really meant, and it was rare to really accept the Liu family's kindness?

Looking at each other, Qin Yan stopped, with a gentle voice, "This happened suddenly, but my uncle can rest assured that I will not treat my cousin badly."

Looking at the young man in front of him, Liu Guozheng was still full of doubts in his heart, he couldn't help but hesitate, "But... the emperor..."

"It's getting late, so I have to go to the council hall alone, one step ahead." After speaking, he turned around and left.

Only Liu Guozheng frowned and made her daughter the prince princess. He also asked Lu Lixing's daughter to be the concubine. The emperor was clearly making appointments with them. But the strange thing is that the prince never did Saying these superficial things, otherwise, he would not ignore his daughter forever, and now he said that he would not treat Yin'er badly. It seems that he has to discuss with his sister.

Changchun Palace.

Just after leaving the morning province of the palaces, the queen stood in front of the window holding the scissors and prune the potted plants unhurriedly, while slowly saying: "The emperor is just a few days away from the concubine Li, this damned hoof dared to be here. The palace is brave and majestic, and really doesn't know good or bad. When the emperor succeeds to the throne in the future, the palace depends on how arrogant the cheap hoof is."

In the inner hall, only the red apricot was waiting there. The blazing sun shone into the hall through the windowsill and sprinkled a golden color. She lowered her head and echoed: "Li Guifei is indeed ignorant of current affairs, and I don't want to think that there are five princesses here. , I am not afraid that you will find a bad marriage for the five princesses in the future."

Speaking of this, the queen suddenly picked up her phoenix eyes and cut off a branch with a "click", "You are right, the emperor has always wanted to win over the poor, and when that time she will marry the five princesses to a sour and rotten literati. The intention of drew on the officials again, and also made the cheap hoof helpless, to see how she still arrogant in front of the palace."

"What the mother said is extremely true." Hong Xing immediately laughed.

"Niangniang! Niangniang!"

At this moment, a court lady suddenly hurried in from outside the palace. Her sultry look caused the queen to furrow her brows and her face was displeased. "Why is it so panic, now there are really no rules."

After taking a breath, the palace maid immediately fell to the ground in fear, "The maidservant forgive me! It's just that the slave and the maid just got the news that they had been given a marriage to the cousin and the prince before the emperor, and now the imperial decree has been out of the palace."

With a crisp sound, a branch fell into the basin instantly, and the queen quickly put down the scissors, her dignified and beautiful face was full of surprise, "You...you say it again!"

It was Hong Xing who was the first to recover, and quickly said with a smile: "Congratulations Niangniang, Hexi Niangniang, I finally got what I wanted."

Never before had all this happened so suddenly, the queen was stunned for a long time, and for a long time, she was filled with joy on her shocked face. She thought that it would take some setbacks for this matter, but she did not expect to come so quickly, and the emperor still had a little noise. There is no omission, and the prince actually agreed to marry his niece, which really caught her by surprise.

At the same time, Liu Yin, who was in the Liu Mansion, was still learning embroidery with her mother there. Although she didn't like this boring thing very much, she still gritted her teeth and studied there.

The room was silent, and after finally embroidering a flower, she couldn't wait to pass it over, "Mother, do you think there has been a lot of progress?"

Although the stitches on the embroidered handkerchief are extraordinarily rough, they have an appearance. Unlike the daughters who didn’t even want to touch the stitches in the past. Knowing that her daughter is already sensible, Zhang naturally touched her head with satisfaction, “Very good, and practice again. Within a few months, I can embroider one for your father."

Hearing this, Liu Yin immediately put down the needle and thread and rubbed his sore wrist, his face was full of unhappy, "I don't embroider Dad. Yesterday, I asked him if he wanted a copy of the painting. I didn't want to give it. I was stingy."

"That's your father's collection, and you don't know how to appreciate the painting, what do you want it to do?" Zhang's nodded her forehead.

At the end of the words, Liu Yin immediately explained, "Father, what happened to me with so many collections? That Taifu Shen is so kind to me, he doesn't dislike my illiteracy at all, is so patient, and doesn't accept other valuables. I I just want to send some paintings and calligraphy to express. Isn't it allowed that people are not allowed to establish a good relationship?"

Seeing her sharper teeth and sharp mouth, Zhang also shook his head helplessly, "Your father takes care of this kind of thing, and you can do your own thing as a girl."

"But I have to—"

"Madam! Madam!"

At this time, the door was suddenly pushed open, and a green-clothed maid came in panting, as if there was something important, Liu Yin held her head and glanced at her, "Sister Ping'er, what is this urgent? My brother returned to Beijing early?"

"No...it's not..." Ping'er panted heavily, Xu Shi ran in a hurry, sweating all over her head, and pointed to the outside of the house and said: "The palace...there is someone in the palace..."

Hearing this, Liu Yin didn't even ask, but Ping'er went on to say: "The emperor gave the second lady and the prince a marriage. Go out and take the decree!"

When the words fell, even Zhang's expression changed. He immediately put down the needle and thread in his hand, with a serious expression. Liu Yin also sat up straight, looking at the other party with a dazed expression: "What...what did you say?"

"It's true!"

Ping'er stomped his feet and quickly pointed to the outside of the house and said anxiously: "If you don't believe me, you can go out and have a look. Now everyone is waiting in the hall!"
