In February, after his seventh birthday, the filial piety of the late emperor was officially exiled.

Xu Jin succeeded to the throne, using the sun instead of the moon, but in the past two years everything in the palace has been simple and never held a banquet to commemorate the late emperor. Now that the mourning period has passed, the atmosphere in the palace has gradually changed, like spring coming after the cold winter, bright and light.

Fu Rong led his daughters to accompany the Queen Mother, Axuan and Apei played with the palace maids, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law sat in the corridor to watch.

"Are you ready to go to Lingshan in the middle of the moon?" The empress dowager smiled and spoke to Fu Rong.

The summer vacation of the year before yesterday, the family of five lived in Youran, and the same was true last year. However, Xu Jin promised Fu Rong that he would take her to Lingshan to escape the summer vacation in March this year. The emperor's departure from the palace was all prepared several months in advance, so he naturally could not hide it from the empress dowager.

"Actually, there is nothing to clean up. There are all palaces in the east and west Lingshan. We just need to bring a few personal objects that we used to. I just can't bear to leave my mother." Fu Rong reluctantly hugged her mother-in-law's arm, "Mom, you are always stuffy in the palace, don't you find it boring?"

"I'm so old and still act coquettish." The empress dowager touched her head and said with some recollections: "Who said I'm always stuffy in the palace? I've been to Lingshan for seven or eight times, and it's almost the same every year. You don't want to go all the way to see the old scenery. Besides, I stayed in the palace to take care of Brother Wang, don't you feel at ease when you're playing outside, right?"

Speaking of son, Fu Rong was even less in a mood.

Xu Jin said with a look of gratitude that he wanted to take her to Lingshan, and Fu Rong really wanted to go there. In her previous life, she was not in a good position and had never seen the real good scenery of Lingshan. When she went out for a walk, she would be contemptuous with other noble girls, as if it was so embarrassing that she and Li made a mistake. Therefore, she could go as the queen in this life. Fu Rong happily prepared. But she didn't expect that after waiting for more than half a year, she saw that she would set off in another half a month, but Xu Jin told her to only take her daughters and not her brother.

She left Beijing in March and returned in July, which means she was going to separate from her son for four months.

If it weren't for the lack of resistance to Xu Jin, Fu Rong really didn't want to go.

The Empress Dowager knew that she was reluctant to leave her, so she patted her hands with emotion: "The child is grown up, and it is useless for us to stay by our side all the time. Like Jing Xing, she went out to fight when she was a teenager, and I couldn't sleep well every night, but what can I do? Without the hard work of training as a child, I would not be as good as he is now, so I should think about it. Look, if you are not around, Brother Wang will have the opportunity to be alone, which is a good thing."

Fu Rong understood, he just couldn't bear to let it go.

Just as he was depressed, Concubine Rou and the second princess were coming.

The seventeen-year-old second princess was wearing a cherry-red dress, like a flower that had been silent for three years, blooming all the time, bright and magnificent.

"Auntie is so beautiful!" A Xuan saw that her aunt suddenly changed her clothes and forgot that she was still playing games. She smiled and ran towards her aunt, hugged her thigh and looked up at her, "Auntie's skirt looks good, my sister and I also have one, which is made by my mother!"

The five-year-old girl has a beautiful look at her ears and looks like a little fairy.

The niece is getting older and heavy. The second princess is not convenient to hold her anymore, so she held her hand and greeted Apei first, and then asked Axuan with a smile: "Then Axuan Apei put on tomorrow, let's go to the garden to rush to butterflies together."

Axuan nodded happily, not allowing her aunt to go to the corridor, and pulled her to play games together.

The second princess had no choice but to say hello to the Queen Mother Fu Rong from afar, and then took the initiative to be blind and wanted to catch two little nieces.

The queen mother looked at her and smiled, and Tong Rou Concubine quipped, "Look, Fuhui is like a child."

Concubine Rou sighed.

The empress dowager had a good relationship with her and knew what Concubine Rou was most worried about. She asked softly: "Fuhui still doesn't agree to choosing the prince-consort?"

When the late emperor went, he told her and her son to choose a good family for the second princess. She remembered it in her heart and her son also in her heart. Kaichun's son asked her to ask Concubine Rou's request for the princess. Fortunately, he chose a few good family members for Concubine Rou to see the second princess, but the second princess refused to nod, so they were not able to make arrangements.

Concubine Rou nodded helplessly, not wanting to mention her worries, but instead asked about Xu Qing’s marriage, “When will you choose a concubine for Prince Huai?”

This time it was the empress dowager who was worried.

My son and Cui Wan's childhood sweetheart have been together for so many years since they were young, and they can meet almost every day. Feelings do not mean that if the other party does something wrong, they can give up by reason, but they are even more painful. They tell themselves rationally not to think about it, but their hearts are trapped in and pulled out. It is like cutting out the flesh. How many people in the world can bear it, and how many people can see clearly?

Therefore, the Queen Mother hopes that her son will marry another princess and live a peaceful life and give her a few grandchildren, but her son refuses repeatedly, and she can't force him.

The two elders were sympathetic to each other, and Fu Rong listened on the side, and his thoughts gradually drifted away.

She didn't care much about Xu Qing's affairs. What she was worried about was her brother and the second princess.

The second princess must have liked her brother, and she has liked her for a long time, but the little girl did not rely on the favor of the late emperor to directly ask for the prince-consort's orders, nor did she show her love for her brother in front of her. She is well-behaved and obedient. If she hadn't asked her for help when she was young, Fu Rong would not believe that the second princess liked her brother.

My brother is already twenty-six years old, and he is not young. Seeing that Brother Guan is about to be in love, he is still a bachelor. Fu Rong is really angry. He makes his mother worried and makes their sisters worry. Moreover, if he got married early, the second princess might have forgotten to admit it. He will not marry him for a long time. If he had changed to Fu Rong, he would have hope in his heart.

At noon, I accompanied the Queen Mother to have a meal. After that, Fu Rong took her daughters back to Fengyi Palace to rest.

Xu Jin came back early in the afternoon. He accompanied Fu Rong to coax his daughters and helped Axuan swing for a while. Then he saw Fu Rong sitting on a rattan chair in a daze towards the sunset, as if he was worried.

"Brother Wang, come and help my sister." Xu Jin gave up the place and asked Brother Wang to come over.

Brother Wang likes to take care of his sister, replaces his father and queen, and carefully helps her sister wander around.

He was weak, and the swing was much smaller than when Xu Jin shook. Axuan was not very happy and urged him sweetly: "Brother, use some more force."

Xu Jin was about to walk to Fu Rong, and turned around after hearing this, looking at it, and said, "This is great, Brother Wang, don't listen to your sister."

Brother Wang handed her sister a look of "sister's obedient".

Axuan pouted her mouth.

Apei sat on the embroidery stud beside him, staring at the shaking swing with big eyes, her little mouth slightly opened, as if she was saying something, and suddenly her eyes lit up and stood up and said, "It's twenty enough, it's my turn!"

Brother Wang slowly stopped the swing.

Axuan didn't have enough fun, but she agreed to have one person twenty times, so she wouldn't be able to compete with her sister, so she sat on the embroidery pier. There was also a swing next to her, but she liked to let her brother shake and watched her sister play.

Xu Jin sat on the rattan chair and pinched Fu Rong's nose as if no one was around: "What are you thinking about again?"

Fu Rong came back to his senses and was about to slap his hands away, but his heart moved and pulled his hands down to speak to him: "Today I heard my mother talk about Fuhui's marriage with Concubine Rou, and said that the prince consort is not easy to choose. Fuhui is the pearl in the hand of the late emperor and the emperor's sister. She must choose an outstanding aristocratic family to be worthy of it, but the real aristocratic family members want to make achievements, so I am afraid they don't want to be just a son consort, right?"

She wanted to know Xu Jin's attitude towards the son-in-law. Because of the second princess, she turned over history books, and not every dynasty restricted the son-in-law from becoming an official. Xu Jin was the sixth emperor of the Great Wei Dynasty. Perhaps the Xu family really had a daughter, and only Princess Yongning and the Second Princess were born in the previous five generations. One Princess Yongning may not be a precedent that must be followed.

Xu Jin looked at his two daughters.

He also has his own princess. When his daughters are old, what kind of man should he marry? Is it the kind of person who only knows how to play or Liang Tong who is really capable?

Of course it is the latter, he will not marry his daughters to useless men.

And the prince-consort is also a relative of the foreigner.

Duke Qing did not have an official position, but Princess Yongning was still ambitious to marry her daughter to the emperor and then help her grandson plan the throne. This is an example of the princess being honest and princess being honest. There were also princesses in the previous dynasty. The princess was honest by killing the orthodox prince with the title of princess and then electing the princess’ son, which was his son who ascended the throne.

Therefore, whether relatives of the foreign country will become troubles is the human heart, the ability and means of the incumbent, rather than just empty words.

"As long as the prince consort has real talent and knowledge, I will use him. No, unless Fuhui likes it, then he is not worthy of being the prince consort."

Withdrew his gaze, Xu Jin smiled and said to Fu Rong.

Fu Rong was relieved after hearing this.

On the second day, Miss Axuan and Ape went to the garden with the second princess to play. Fu Rong asked her to invite her brother over. She greeted Xu Jin last night, and the excuse was to ask about the family.

Fu Chen came soon.

Fu Rong met him in the main hall.

Fu Chen came in and looked for two nieces that looked like flowers, but couldn't find them. He asked his sister wonderingly: "Where is Axuan and Apei? Didn't they miss me?"

Fu Rong mocked him angrily: "You made their grandmother angry and made their mother angry, why do they miss you?"

As soon as Fu Chen heard the words, he knew what his sister wanted to say. He turned around and walked out, "I have something to do, let's go first."

"Stop!" Fu Rong ran a few steps and pulled him, signaling Mei Xiang to stay outside. She pressed her brother on the chair and asked him condescendingly: "You are still planning to find a sister-in-law for me in your life? If you don't want to, I will devote my mind to choosing a wife for Brother Guan, so as not to waste time on you!"

Fu Chen leaned on the back of the chair with his eyes closed, "I'll sleep for a while, you can tell me, remember to wake me up after I finish speaking, there's something wrong with me."

He looked like a scoundrel, and Fu Rong was so angry that he pulled his ears.

Fu Chen is thick-skinned and is not afraid of her ripped off.

Fu Rong had no choice but to ask him directly: "Does my brother have someone he likes in his heart? Is it the second princess?"

Fu Chen opened his eyes suddenly, stared at his sister for a while, and asked as a fool: "Second Princess? What does it have to do with her whether I marry a wife or not? Why did you get involved with her?"

There must be a demon when something goes wrong. He is outside. Fu Rong doesn’t know which girls his brother has met. He only knows the second princess. She can only guess it. If she guesses, she will be the best. If she can’t guess, she will follow the trend. "That Lantern Festival, you sent the second princess back. Did the second princess say you like you? My brother didn’t respond, so the second princess cried?"

Fu Chen seemed to have heard a huge joke, and stood up and played her with a thunderous sound: "What nonsense, it's nothing at all..."

"She told me everything." Fu Rong raised her head and stared at her brother tightly, "She has not married yet. She wanted to wait for you to get married before she gave up."

Fu Chen was stunned.

That's how she thought?

Fu Rong wanted to know his brother's thoughts, so he deliberately provoked him: "Brother, when the late emperor went, he wanted to choose a princess for the second princess. The second princess refused to accept it. Now she is filial, but she still refuses. I can't think of any other reason except waiting for you. The second princess is a good girl. I don't want her to waste time. If the brother doesn't like her at all, then I will lie and lie to her, saying that if the brother has a lover, he will soon get engaged. The second princess will definitely believe me, so that we will choose a princess for her, and she will not refuse."

My brother is a man, and he doesn't like a girl he likes, so it doesn't matter if he continues to wait. The second princess is different. It's okay this year, but it's even an old girl next year. If my brother really doesn't like the second princess at all, Fu Rong can't bear to watch the second princess wait foolishly. He is a good boy. Once he knows that there is no hope, he will accept his fate and marry, so that his mother will not worry.

Facing her sister's inquiring gaze, Fu Chen was stunned for a moment and suddenly smiled, "Okay, just tell her like this, it's best if she believes it, she doesn't believe it, I really find you a sister-in-law."

When she said she liked him, she was only twelve years old. What she knew was nothing more than to repay his life-saving grace. He was reluctant to marry, one was that he had never met the woman she liked, and the other was that she was guilty of her. After all, she had been crying. At that time, the little girl said she liked him, but Fu Chen didn't take it seriously, but when she cried, he took it in his heart. He hoped that she would grow up, hoping that she would truly understand what it means to marry the person she liked. This proved that she was naive and ignorant at the time, not that he hurt the heart of a little girl who liked him.

But he didn't expect that she was waiting for him to get married.

Isn't this princess too stubborn?

How could she like him? The two of them added up to a few words.

Since she was stubborn, he would let her give up.

To make it clear, Fu Chen touched his sister's head and turned around and left.

When I walked to the gate of Fengyi Palace, I ran into the second princess holding a niece in one hand.
