Chapter 28 Marriage List

Jingren Palace.

Concubine Xue dropped several celadon vessels in a fit of rage.

The little bitch is so arrogant and hateful that she actually embarrassed her in public.

"What an arrogant and rude lady, who doesn't know how to praise!" Concubine Xue smashed another glass bottle and sneered: "She is worthy of being the prince's teacher!"

"It's because of that bitch in Lushan that she dares to do this to my face."

"Your Majesty, be careful what you say." Aunt Zheng was so anxious that she almost covered her mouth: "Oh, ancestors, don't forget the lessons learned by Concubine Xian back then."

Concubine Xue's face twisted a few times, but she finally calmed down a little. She pinched her palms and shouted: "Yulu, bring me the selection list."

The Longevity Festival is approaching the end of the month, and foreign missions are about to arrive in Beijing.

The emperor was determined to build a kingdom and make friends with his neighbors.

When there were no royal daughters in the dynasty, they would select daughters from the clan, and the daughters of ministers would be canonized as princesses for marriage.

"What's the name of Pei's daughter's biological sister?" Concubine Xue looked arrogant and clutched her pen, displaying murderous intent.

"Hey." As soon as Grandma Zheng saw her like that, she knew that she was going to make trouble again. Her vindictive nature would never change in her life: "Go back to the empress and call Pei Yu."

Concubine Xue opened the roster and added to it, grinding her teeth and saying,

"When she begs me! She is a young lady, and I can't touch her regarding the marriage, so I have to blame her sister to take it for her."

How could the imperial concubine know that her addition would not only make things difficult for Pei Shu, but would actually make Pei Shu happy? It was simply a wasted opportunity to take advantage of the Qin family.

Aunt Zheng glanced at the open roster, her brows knitted as she stared at Fu Jingyao's name.

Fu Jingyao came from the former Zhenguogongfu, but was later deprived of title and land by the emperor, and was reduced to the current low-level county uncle, completely silent.

Aunt Zheng struggled for a moment and finally spoke out words of advice,

"Your Majesty, Fu Jingyao from the County Prince's Mansion, I look at it horizontally and vertically, but I still think it's not suitable, so why don't you just cancel it."

The once noble and distinguished first-class Zhenguo Duke's mansion was so angry that he died in battle. Except for his married daughter and a centurion who moved to the frontier, only Fu Jingyao and a widowed nephew were left in the mansion.

Get another one to marry...

Even Aunt Zheng, who had hardened her heart in this deep palace, felt a little bit unbearable.

Compassion is secondary. The key is that His Majesty, Xu, has gotten a little older. In the past two years, he has begun to think about the past and has no lack of compensation for the county uncle's house. The master can't see clearly, but she really sees it.

She dared to raise her head to guarantee that if the name list was submitted, His Majesty would not agree, not to mention that there was an eldest son of the Xie family in the previous dynasty.

If you just mess around with it, you won't get what you want, so why bother picking up lice on your body and looking for trouble?

However, Concubine Xue couldn't listen to it at all: "What a joke, would I be afraid that he belongs to a declining family?"

The master was stubborn and refused to listen. Aunt Zheng wanted to break the bitter medicine into pieces and stuff it into her mouth.

"Madam, it is true that the Fu family is quiet, but there is no one in the court. Xie Shilang is favored by His Majesty, and he is only one step away from the prime minister. We are a little worried about it."

Concubine Xue frowned impatiently and sneered coldly: "For him to offend me, this step is destined to be an insurmountable chasm."

She was not satisfied with either of them, she was just a minister of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and the Xue family had good intentions to marry her, but he resolutely refused.

Her niece was born into a noble family and had a weak heart, which was more than enough for him as a lonely minister with no family support and a stepmother who headed the household.

On the other hand, he was not grateful and continued, but refused without leaving any room.

what!

The master was already impatient, so Aunt Zheng stopped and kept her mouth shut. If she tried to persuade her again, she would persuade her to go in.

That's all, that's all, the Xue family is in bloom, as long as the empress doesn't make a big mistake, it doesn't matter.

On the other side, Pei Shu, who was resented by the imperial concubine, walked out of the palace.

As soon as he entered Zhilan Residence, he collapsed on the soft couch as if he had no bones. He closed his eyes and died.

It takes a lot of energy and effort to meet the Holy Spirit.

Yunlu silently massaged her head for a while and asked, "Is things going well?"

Pei Shu raised her hand and pinched her eyebrows: "I can't say whether it's good or bad at the moment, let's see."

Yunlu looked at her with a tired look on her face and said, "Some things cannot be rushed. When you are tired, take a short break."

"Yeah." Pei Shu was too lazy to move, so she just leaned on the Arhat and closed her eyes to take a nap.

The way she slept with her calves slightly curled up and her head buried in her arms reminded Yunlu of the lazy cat on Lushan Mountain who often jumped on the roof to bask in the sun.

Recently, the queen no longer pretends to be dignified all the time. In this Zhilan Juli, she is as casual as if she were in the mountains.

The lazy cat didn't rest for a while when someone came outside the second door to report that the Seventh Master was here again.

Pei Shu murmured sleepily: "How many times has he been here?"

"Including today, four trips." Yunlu said, "Do you want to see me?"

Pei Shu stretched out, put on her shoes and said, "See you."

It's not a good time to start a business today, so it's a good time to gather some wool to change your mood.

Side hall.

Seeing Pei Shu come out, the seventh prince hurriedly put down the tea cup and stood up. He waited for her to sit down before sitting back down again.

Having suffered a huge setback at the hands of Pei Shu, he no longer dared to underestimate this young man with a tender face and a dark heart, let alone set his sights on his elders.

The little ancestor would be grateful to God if he could see him. How could he have the confidence to act like an elder?

Pei Shu raised her eyes and looked carefully at this respected elder.

After waiting for him for so long and choosing to receive him in a side hall, he showed no dissatisfaction. He was actually a flexible and flexible person.

"It's so hot, you're tired."

Listening to her hypocritical words, the seventh prince felt choked in his heart, but he had to smile.

"Oh, it's all because of that treacherous son who doesn't live up to his expectations. I'm so exhausted that I still have to run around for him."

Pei Shu raised the corners of her lips silently: "Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. It would be great to let them go and enjoy the happiness."

"I think so too." The Seventh Master clapped his legs and sighed, "But there is no way to just sit back and ignore him. What is it like for a grown man to do nothing all day long? I punished him severely, and he is still thinking about it in front of the wall in the ancestral hall. , I saw that he really had a repentant heart, and he also sorted out the messy accounts before."

"I've also written a note and asked me to send it to the queen, so that you can read it together."

"It's not necessary." Pei Shu dismissed it in an understatement: "The account can be made into a three-point truth or a five-point truth. It doesn't mean much whether you look at it or not."

The smile on the face of the Seventh Grand Master was a little unbearable. He was an elder who had humbled himself to such an extent that even the Duke of the country would have to give him a bit of mercy when he came.

How did you develop such a hard-hearted heart at such a young age?
