After Xiao Fubao's life was stolen, she became the favorite of the Beijing group

Zhang Yuniang took a deep breath and said: "Just because you like playing with him doesn't mean you have to marry him. Maybe you will meet a better playmate in the future? Just like you liked playing with Ah Zhao before, Now you like to play with Xingchuan and Li Xuan, and your playmates keep changing."

Niu Niu tilted her head and asked, "Then shall I marry the second brother or the third brother?"

Zhang Yuniang has never been so anxious as she is now: "Of course not, you are brothers and sisters!"

Although they are not related by blood, the children have always gotten along with each other as brother and sister. She also instinctively felt that she could not lead her daughter down this road. She could not imagine what kind of treatment they would accept from the outside world in the future if such a thing really happened. Pointing.

Niu Niu's eyes were still extremely clear, as if she had just proposed this option unintentionally.

Zhang Yunniang held the little girl in her arms and asked, "Did anyone tell you about this?"

Niu Niu would not hide it from her mother: "It was the old lady next door. She asked me if I was the child bride of the Gu family."

When Zhang Yuniang heard this, she was so angry that she almost smashed the table in front of her.

"Don't listen to her nonsense. You are the daughter of the family and the darling of me and your father." Zhang Yuniang said seriously.

Niu Niu raised the corners of her mouth and said proudly: "Of course I know I am your baby! I won't listen to her nonsense!"

Zhang Yuniang looked at her daughter with gentle eyes. She suddenly felt that compared with this bad choice, marrying Li Xuan seemed not so pessimistic.

Gu Mingda waited for mother and daughter to finish speaking before asking: "Good boy, do you think your brother Li Xuan is the most suitable candidate for marriage?"

Niuniu nodded: "I don't think there's anything wrong with him."

The little girl's words made Gu Mingda feel relieved. Niu Niu possesses all kinds of special skills. If she thinks this marriage is good, it will not hurt her in the future.

What everyone didn't expect was that the Gu family agreed to the marriage, Prince Jing's Palace and Li Xuan were also willing, but the emperor did not agree.

"Why are you so anxious, Queen Mother? The child is still young and his temperament has not yet been determined. Who knows whether he will grow up in the future?" The emperor rejected the Queen Mother's idea of ​​​​granting him a marriage with a look of displeasure on his face.

The Queen Mother's heart sank. The old lady looked at the Emperor's expression seriously, as if she wanted to find something wrong.

"But everyone in the palace knows that Niu Niu and Li Xuan are the best friends. They are about to reach the age of mutual defense. If they continue to be together, I'm afraid outsiders will gossip." The queen mother said tentatively.

An anxious look flashed in the emperor's eyes, and he said: "It's normal to separate when you reach age. Doesn't Niu Niu have other playmates? She is a little girl and she should play with other girls. "

The Queen Mother said: "If you cultivate a relationship with your fiancé from a young age, and everything will fall into place when you grow up, you won't have to suffer too much after marriage in the future. Wouldn't this be more comfortable than other girls? The Ai family always hopes in their hearts, like A girl like a granddaughter can have a smooth and worry-free life. "

The emperor didn't know why, but now that he heard the Queen Mother mention Niu Niu as a granddaughter, he couldn't help but find this title annoying.

"Mother, she is not your granddaughter! She is just the daughter of a petty official!" the emperor said viciously. His face was already a little out of sorts at this moment, completely unlike the emperor in the past who could remain calm in everything he encountered.

The Queen Mother felt as if a huge stone had fallen on her heart, and she couldn't help but think of Li's nonsense words. Could it be...

But before she could think of this, she suddenly saw the emperor, with a look of panic and guilt on his face.

The Queen Mother followed his line of sight and saw Niu Niu standing there at some point, and she didn't know how much the little girl had listened to.

"Niuniu, I don't mean to belittle you when I say these words. You are a very, very lovable little girl. Everyone likes you very much..." The emperor explained incoherently.

Niu Niu still looked at them with wide eyes: "Uncle Emperor, I am indeed not a child of your family, and my father's official position is indeed not high. What you said is actually correct."

The emperor was even more anxious. He couldn't help but think about whether it was too late to promote Gu Mingda now.

The Queen Mother had never realized so much at this moment that the emperor's eyes had changed when he looked at Niu Niu. He was no longer looking at a little girl of several years old.

The Queen Mother quietly moved her steps and appeared in front of Niu Niu as if by accident.

"Emperor, you have a lot of political affairs in your court. It's better for me to explain to her. You should deal with the political affairs first and don't delay the national affairs." The Queen Mother advised.

The emperor glanced at his mother gratefully and then left.

The Queen Mother held the little girl in her arms and said, "Although you and I are not related by blood, in my heart, you are my eldest granddaughter. The newborn baby is my second granddaughter. You are equally important."

The little girl snuggled softly in the Queen Mother's arms, grabbed the corner of her clothes, and said, "Grandma, the Queen Mother, I know that you will always be my good grandma."

The Queen Mother breathed a sigh of relief and was about to say that the same was true for the Emperor, but she couldn't.

Unexpectedly, Niu Niu took the initiative to speak: "Grandma the Queen Mother, I don't know why, but I'm a little afraid of seeing the emperor's uncle recently."

The Queen Mother immediately said: "Since you are afraid, you should avoid him in the future."

Niu Niu breathed a sigh of relief. She had never mentioned this before because she was afraid that the Queen Mother would be uncomfortable hearing this.

The Queen Mother then said: "Since you like your brother Li Xuan very much, then the Ai family will personally grant you a marriage, okay?"

Niuniu nodded.

Niuniu really likes Li Xuan, and she even has an almost instinctive premonition that it is more beneficial for her to do so now.

On the same day, the Queen Mother's decree of marriage was sent to the Gu family and Prince Jing's Mansion.

The emperor received the news, but it was already late at night, and he rushed directly to Shoukang Palace without even taking the ceremonial guards.

"Why did the Queen Mother do this? Do you have to go your own way?" The emperor questioned.

Although it was not the emperor's marriage, the Queen Mother's decree of marriage came down, and the emperor could not refute it. This matter was almost a foregone conclusion.

The Queen Mother looked at her son quietly: "Emperor, this is not the first time that I have granted marriage to someone, and you have never lost your temper like this."

The emperor wanted to hide the emotions on his face, but he did not succeed for a while.

"Don't show your emotions on your face. This is the first thing your father gave you after you became the crown prince. Have you forgotten it?" The Queen Mother asked.

The emperor took a step back, and he finally realized that something was wrong with him.

"I... I just don't like this kind of marriage..."

After the emperor said this, an expression appeared on his face that the empress dowager had not seen in almost thirty years.

Grievance and unwillingness intertwined, as if he was no longer the emperor above everyone else, but a big dog abandoned by his master.
