Changsun Zhou Mingli is the candidate for the best, so he got married early and went to another place to experience it. He married a lady of a good family. Changsun was also very steady, which reassured Mr. Zhou.

Mingjia is his legitimate grandson and has always been his favorite. This year, he was eighteen years old. Because he was young, he was not allowed to marry early because he was not allowed to talk about marriage early, so he never got married. However, his mother, Yang, had already favored the choice of a wife. It was because his parents died early, and his daughter-in-law, who had lived in the Zhou family for many years, had a niece, Yang Siwei.

The two did not have a marriage contract, but because the Yang brothers and his wife died, his eldest daughter-in-law, Yang, was worried that her niece would have no one to rely on and was bullied by the clan, so she took it to her home, raised herself and even intended to marry her youngest son Zhou Mingjia.

Mr. Zhou rarely cares about the inner house, let alone the eldest son's inner house. Although he loves Mingjia, he saw that Mingjia knew his mother's thoughts and had a childhood sweetheart towards the Yang family's cousin, and did not show his rejection of this marriage, so he did not interfere too much.

Besides, Mrs. Zhou persuaded her that the old woman is old and loves to be married, not to mention that Mingjia and Weier are a pair of golden boys and jade girls who grew up in front of her. She was full of joy in seeing her, and she was so happy that she could not see them as a couple.

As his wife's wishes, Mr. Zhou agreed that the cousin of the Yang family was the future granddaughter-in-law.

It is precisely because of this that although Miss Chou’s family is in decline, with the support of the old lady and wife Li, the servants dare not say anything. They even serve Miss Chou more than her own daughter. They know in their hearts that this is the future second young lady and their status is much more noble than theirs.

Who knew that such a thing would happen. If I had known this, Master Zhou would have engaged Mingjia and Weier first.

...

After hearing the news that his father-in-law brought back from the palace, Yang began to complain in his heart. If he had not suppressed Mingjia and did not talk about the marriage before he was admitted to the Jinshi, why would her niece Weier be delayed until now? What kind of monks can approve their lives?

"Vier is the only blood I have seen growing up, and it is my own sister's only bones and blood. I have no shame to see my sister after I die. You should persuade my father-in-law more and go back to Your Majesty." Yang Shi

And if Weier was sent out for the sake of the princess, what else could there be?

"What do you know about women?" Zhou Yan, the eldest son of the elder Zhou Pavilion, bowed, "This is the emperor's grace, why did you say you refused?"

Zhou Yan had the idea of ​​being a minister in his heart. In his opinion, there was something good to think about in this matter. Of course, they would do whatever the emperor said. Even if the princess married, they would be the king and should respectfully respect them.

So he didn't know why his father was worried.

Yang was extremely unhappy. She knew that her master was a elm-hearted man, but she didn't expect that he was so pedantic and stubborn in such matters. For his loyalty to the emperor, he could even send his son out in just one word.

But Yang could not, she could not ignore her poor niece. In her opinion, Weier is good here and there, and everything is good. She has no biological daughter. She loves Yang Siwei as a daughter, and she is the only Mingjia wife she recognizes. What kind of princess and princesses can compare with Weier.

Mr. Zhou was talking,

"Master, I really can't go back to Your Majesty." Mrs. Zhou asked as she looked at Master Zhou's sigh and worried look.

"Oh, you think it's so easy to get back." Mr. Zhou Ge looked at his wife helplessly. This was grace. In the previous dynasty, those emperors prepared for the princess, even if the emperor didn't say anything, those people would not dare to talk about marriage, let alone his grandson Mingjia was personally hinted by His Majesty.

Although Your Majesty has always been lenient, he is the emperor after all. He has made achievements in farming, and the government and the people have praised merits. When he was full of ambition, he asked about the marriage of Princess Luohe, which was nothing more than to add icing on the cake.

How could he go back? Could it be that there is a candidate for favorable candidate in his family? Wouldn't he tell His Majesty that Princess Luohe is not as good as the girl they chose?

"Sir, the second young master has arrived." A servant reported.

Master Zhou thought for a moment and said, "Let him go into the study with me."

Mrs. Zhou knew that Mrs. Zhou was going to talk to her grandson Zhou Mingjia alone, but she didn't follow in, but just sighed.

A young man wearing a navy blue brocade robe and a handsome face as handsome as jade, looked as gentle and gentle as a rough jade. He was calm and elegant in every move.

Zhou Mingjia bowed and bowed, with a gentle and close smile on his lips, "Grandfather"

When he saw his young grandson Zhou Mingjia, his expression calmed down a lot. The emperor intended to choose him as his son-in-law. Zhou Ge Lao did not intend to hide it from him. Mingjia is eighteen this year and will come to the court to take the exam next spring. After everything goes well, he will become an official. Not a child who is worried about everything and protected by others.

He also needs to think about some things, make decisions, distinguish the pros and cons, and not regret it in the future.

After hearing this, Zhou Mingjia was slightly stunned. No matter how outstanding he was, he was known as the Prince Zhilan in the capital. He was just a young man who had not yet entered the court and had never visited Tianwei in person.

Zhou Mingjia thought about it carefully for a while and it might be a great thing for others. If he falls into him, he will become a disaster that will harm the entire clan if he is not careful.

The deeper he thought, the more sweat came out from his forehead, and Master Zhou held the tea and quietly watched the young grandson he valued, falling into deep thought.

Finally, Zhou Mingjia was heavy but a little relieved, "Mingjia was mediocre in his qualifications and was not enough to match the princess. It would be better to refuse His Majesty's case."

Master Zhou nodded slightly.

***

Zhao Jin really didn't know that there was something wrong with the Zhou family. He didn't have special hobbies or suspicious temperament, and he didn't have so much time to explore the gossip in his ministers' private houses.

Moreover, Zhao Jin felt that he had already said clearly to Mr. Zhou. What he cared about was whether the Zhou family and Zhou Mingjia were worthy of Luohe. In addition, there were romantic friendships, childhood sweethearts, concubines, and children from noble families, and Zhao Jin didn't care.

As long as the Zhou family knows that he intends to take Zhou Mingjia as his son-in-law, deal with all of these, and then prepare to marry the princess, it is enough to wait for the princess to be wholehearted and have no mistakes.

This is also Zhao Jin's habit as a man or the emperor of this era. For them, the best thing to give women is fame, fortune and honor.

Zhao Jin was not worried that the Zhou family would dare to deceive the king. He knew very well what kind of person Zhou Ge was. He would not know that even if Zhao Jin, as the emperor, would never spare this matter easily.

When Zhao Jin thought of the good marriage arranged for Luohe with all his heart, he was satisfied and even his steps became much more relaxed and happy.

Since Master Zhou had not replied yet and Zhao Jin cared about Luo He's reputation, he did not tell Luo He about the candidate of the prince consort he liked, but the queen knew about it.

Like Zhao Jin, the queen was very satisfied with the candidate Zhou Mingjia, the grandson of the Zhou Pavilion. Although she didn't say it, her eyes that looked at Zhao Xin from time to time were meaningful.

Zhao Xin, who was obviously joking, said: "..."

When he turned his head and continued to play chess with the little prince, his white and tender face, which was somewhat similar to Zhao Jin, was tense seriously, and his eyes were fixed on the chessboard, as if every step was a major choice in life.

When a trace of joy of winning the chess piece finally appeared, with a "bang", his chess was completely dead.

Zhao Xin looked at the little prince Zhao Lan and said gently and kindly, "Did you see anything?"

The little prince recalled the teachings of his father and Master Shangshufang. He looked at the chessboard carefully. Why did his chess lose? He raised his eyes and his eyes were dark and lit and said seriously, "If you are empty, you are real, you are empty."

Zhao Xin said calmly, "No, I'm just teasing you."

Zhao Lan: “…”

When Zhao Jin came to the queen's harem at noon, the prince Zhao Lan held his thighs and was so angry that he didn't speak.

Aunt Luo He always bullies him and specializes in playing chess with him.

Zhao Lan, who always thought that Aunt Luo He was playing chess with him because his level was only better than him, thought that one day he would improve his chess skills and beat Aunt Luo He. He didn't know that Zhao Xin just thought it was more fun to play chess with him.

When it comes to playing chess, even his father Zhao Jin can't beat her.

***

Yang, who couldn't persuade her master and was worried, simply found her niece Yang Siwei and discussed the solution together. She had already regarded Yang Siwei as her daughter-in-law, so she naturally felt that they were on the side.

The emperor intends to marry the princess to his cousin? Yang Siwei was greatly hit and didn't even listen to what Yang said later.

Looking at Yang Siwei's back with a distraught look on her face, the maid in the room asked worriedly, "Miss, what's wrong?"

Yang Siwei didn't speak, lowered her eyes, but her crystal tears had wet her eyelashes like butterfly wings, and her beautiful face was as white as paper, and she was frustrated and weak.

The maid said anxiously, "But someone bullies the lady. I will tell my wife now and let her make decisions for the lady."

Is it because someone bullies the lady’s family background, or is it because she is ridiculed by secretly making her unhappy? Humph, if you dare to make her sad, she must report to her wife and ask her to teach them a lesson. The maid doesn’t have to think about who she will be. She is just a concubine, so how can she compare with her wife’s niece?

Yang Siwei grabbed the maid who was about to leave, and said softly, "It's useless to tell my aunt."

Compared with the royal princess, she is just a little orphan. How could the Zhou family stand up for her, whether it is her aunt or the Zhou family?

When my cousin and the princess get married, where should she, an orphan girl, go?

My cousin should be her husband. The princess has a golden branch and a jade leaf. She enjoys all her wealth and glory. Why bother to compete with her?
