Chapter 663 Telephone

"Why isn't his surname Zhu? Why isn't he my brother? Sure enough, nature can't determine it. But... eh."

Zhu Xianfen thought for a while: "He can be my brother. He can."

He picked up the white intercom phone on the table and pressed the button leading to Yongshou Palace:

"Why?"

"Mom, why don't you give me a brother?"

"Huh?" On the other end of the phone, the Queen Mother was stunned for a moment.

"Ah, I'm sorry, I slipped up. It's mom, do you think Zhu Ling is getting married soon?"

"You are the emperor, why are you asking me?"

"Isn't this what my parents ordered the matchmaker to do? I have to ask mother first if you have any arrangements."

"Arrangements? There are no arrangements. We don't have this rule in our family. We always choose when we get married."

"So, do you have any specific requirements?"

"You must be dignified, virtuous, and well-mannered. Well, you must also be diligent and thrifty in running the house, and be good at cooking."

"Mom, are you talking about yourself?"

"Your mother and I were attracted by your imperial grandmother at a glance. As expected, she is still very discerning."

"Hey, I'm asking for a hard request." Zhu Xianxian's voice raised three times, "Tell me, can I use your request as mother to ask other people? That's definitely not possible. Just say yes. There are no hard requirements.”

"The hard requirement is that there is no hard requirement."

"It wasn't there before?"

"Your mother and I are from a scholar's family, and your grandfather is over seventy years old and is only a county magistrate. Don't look at what the Zheng family and the Li family want to say about their family background. Our old Zhu family doesn't pay so much attention. If you really want to say it, There is only one hard requirement: choose a decent woman and don’t waste money. And then you have to like it yourself.”

"You're not asking me! Aren't I already married?"

"." There was silence on the other side of the phone for a while, "Ah, sometimes I always feel that you are still young, and before I realize it, you are already married. But you are not yet."

Before she could say anything about the child, Zhu Xianfen said, "Mom, what do you think of Shangluo?"

"Ah, you mean that child."

"Yes, that's the one I often mention. Do you think he is suitable for Zhu Ling?"

"Absolutely not."

"Eh? Why?" Zhu Xianfen said in surprise, "Didn't you say there was no request?"

"I say there is no lower limit, but there cannot be no upper limit. It's not good to be too beautiful. The prince-in-law can't be too beautiful - this is still not important. The important thing is that you can't delay others. After becoming the prince-in-law, your future will be ruined. No matter what you do in the future, you will be punished. The status of the consort is a constraint. So don't delay my future by messing around with the couple. I will not agree to it unless your sister tells me."

"But I really need him to be my brother!"

"You're a good-for-nothing boy, you have no ability, you actually want to build relationships by marrying your sister. What's the difference between you and Sun Quan? Do you also want to marry Sun Shangxiang?"

"No, no, that's not what I meant."

"Then don't make this crooked idea."

"Hey." Zhu Xianfen suggested again, "Why don't we invite Shangluo to have a meal during the Chinese New Year?"

"Are everyone from Ganlu Temple here?"

"No, no, no! Mom, what are you thinking about? I really don't mean that. I just want to make a match. She is really nice, right?"

"Okay." On the other end of the phone, the Queen Mother agreed, "I still have the same two requirements: if it's too handsome, it will delay my daughter. If it's too virtuous, it will delay his future. That's it."

The phone was hung up. The only thing left in Zhu Xianfen's ears was the busy tone of "Du - Du -".

"Ah! This is so difficult to handle! It's easier to ask for a lower limit, but what do you want me to do if you ask for an upper limit!" After saying this, he shook his head:

"No, Zhu, you can't be Sun Shiwan, that's not okay. You can't do things that are worthless. But if they see each other, there's nothing I can do about it, right? Hey! Then Victoria can't see her. Him. Oh my god, why am I still pushing him toward Victoria?"

He picked up the red phone on the table and called the Roman embassy.

"What? Victoria has arrived?" "Yes, yes. I'm really sorry, we don't know why. But my Lord has arrived."

"When she spoke to me on the phone a few hours ago, wasn't she still in Constantinople? Why is she already here? I didn't arrange a Ninghe number to pick her up. Where is she now?"

"She said she had already arrived at the place she had booked to stay."

"what?"

Shangluo and Phaethon were having dinner.

"So, the emperor ordered the people over there to be beaten?" Phaethon suddenly asked.

"who?"

"It's what you said just now that people from the Boni country are making trouble. There was news just before you came back, saying that they and the Koreans were fighting at the gate of the Ministry of Rites."

"Is there such a thing?"

"Now it seems that those Koreans were probably called by the emperor, right?" Phaethon asked, "After all, you were discussing over there, and then something happened here. Obviously, the Korean side cannot be mobilized by the national surname. Then there is only the Emperor."

"What was the final result?"

"All the people from Boni have been admitted to the hospital. All the Koreans who beat the people are fine. They all went to the police station and surrendered."

"It seems too 'arrogant'. It doesn't seem like his style, but it seems like his country's surname. Well, let's ask later." He didn't pay much attention and continued to eat. After all, as a heavenly king, as usual, he only cares about the affairs of heaven. He doesn't understand the affairs of the world at all, so he doesn't care about them.

Ding--

Doorbell rang.

"Huh? Have you bought anything?" he asked Phaethon.

"No. When I buy shampoo, I always buy it myself."

"That's probably because my clothes have arrived. I ordered a set that day."

Shangluo walked over and opened the door.

"Your order of tuna and onion extra large cheese pizza has arrived!"

【ah! The takeout I ordered has arrived! 】

"When did you order it?"

[I called from Jinyiwei’s dial-up station. 】

"Who's going to eat?"

[Of course you come to eat it~~ Then just leave some for me to eat at night, and I'll heat it up in the oven. 】

"." Shangluo slapped his forehead, "I shouldn't have changed with you that day."

The order was already placed, but he couldn't do anything, so he stepped forward and opened the door.

The delivery boy wearing a peaked cap stood at the door holding a pizza box.

"A total of 158 dollars, thank you for your patronage."

"Here." Shangluo took out the money from his wallet, and his wallet suddenly shrank.

【Ah~~it smells so good, this is the smell. 】

Shangluo silently took the pizza to the table. Place the doughnuts to one side and place the pizza in the middle.

"Huh?" Phaethon was stunned for a moment, "Ordering pizza? That doesn't sound like you."

"Who else could it be?"

"She? It does seem like something she would do. Have you ever eaten pizza before?"
