Prince Qinghe lowered his head with a look of disappointment, then raised his head again and said, "But the general doesn't believe the child's affection for Miss Ruhua. How about the child go to the general's residence in person to explain to the general."

King Qinghe was so angry that he didn't fight anywhere, and cursed: "Go, you just go, you are shameless, I want more, if you dare to go, I will break your legs! There are so many daughters of aristocratic families in the capital, There is no shortage of someone in the Ye family, do you have to be her?"

The prince said seriously: "No matter how good the other family's daughter is, she doesn't want any children. She only wants Ruhua."

King Qinghe helplessly patted the prince on the shoulder: "You care about the daughter of the Ye family. Think of a way as a father. You will definitely convince the general."

"Thank you, dad." Prince Qinghe left happily.

King Qinghe went to Princess Qinghe's yard, thinking that his daughter, Princess Yurong, would be there, but she was not there, so he asked his daughter. The princess smiled and said: "Rong'er has been playing crazy lately. He leaves the house every now and then to look for the sister she gave her handkerchief to. Play."

King Qinghe said: "Let her play with her. My daughter's family has only been at home for about ten years. When she goes out in the future, she won't be able to play with her anymore. There's no need to carry her."

Princess Qinghe smiled gently and asked about the marriage proposal with the Ye family, and King Qinghe told her the truth. Princess Qinghe did not expect such a result. She thought Ye Shiheng would agree to discuss the marriage.

She was a little unhappy. With her family status in the Qinghe Palace, marrying a daughter of the Wufu family was a step above the Ye family. The high branches were handed to Ye Shiheng's hand, but he actually refused to take them.

Princess Qinghe said: "If you don't agree, just don't agree. Our palace doesn't care about the daughter of the Ye family. In terms of status, the Ye family is not worthy of our palace. The daughter of the Ye family is nothing but beautiful. , it really doesn’t match Ah Jue.”

King Qinghe disagreed, "You can't say anything. The Ye family is the founder of the country. They followed Taizu in the south and north, and there were so many civil servants and generals who conquered the territory of the Song Dynasty. After the establishment of the Song Dynasty, these heroes suppressed them and reduced their titles. , the exile, few families could survive the three dynasties. The battles in the court were wars without smoking. The Ye family is still standing and has military power, which shows that it is not simple anymore. The Ye family is a loyal family. Speaking of the lintel , there are few families in the imperial court who can compare with it, even the later Ning family, Gu family, Luo family, and Lu family cannot match it."

The servant brought tea, and Princess Qinghe brought it to King Qinghe herself, and said: "Your Majesty, people in Beijing nowadays don't judge who they marry because they are born first. It's not like no one is looking at where the lintel of the Ye family is placed. Birth is always a joke. After all, the Ning family, Gu family, and Luo family also produced marquises. The Lu family also produced a queen. Even the Queen Mother and Princess Pingting were also from the Lu family. The ancestors of these families are famous, and the Ye family My ancestors were just untouchables, not even a marquis."

King Qinghe took a few sips of tea and put the tea cup on the square table. He looked at Princess Qinghe who had a long-haired and short-sighted look. What is the origin of the eighteenth generation? Just look at the present. The Ye family is a century-old family. It has been favored by the emperor. The Song Dynasty was able to start the dynasty. The Ye family contributed nearly half of the credit. Not to mention the marquis, even the king with a different surname can afford it. Together with the Tai The heroes who founded the country, especially those who received titles, were mostly content with enjoying themselves, not seeking to make progress, and got involved in court disputes. In the end, they ended up in a bad end and the family was ruined. The Ye family saw exactly this and refused to be granted titles. When entering into disputes, only by being wise and careful can you stay safe. This has been passed down to this day. The Gu family and the Ning family have been granted the title of marquis. Which one has passed three generations? Gu Hou was involved in Prince Xiang's private salt case, which led to the decline of the family. The Ning family and the Gu family are In-laws, because the Gu family was neglected, Ninghou's eldest son was unmotivated and committed a crime. In the end, he was deprived of his title. Two once-famous families were defeated like this. Although the Ye family was a military general, they never had any What a mediocre person. Princess, as a father, I naturally have to think carefully about Jue'er, and I also have to plan for the palace. The Ye family is a good choice, and family background is not that important."

King Qinghe insisted on proposing marriage to the Ye family, but Princess Qinghe was still reluctant. She said: "The Ye family's family background is not low, but none of his daughters-in-law are from good backgrounds, and Ouyang's father is a hospital official." It's true, the eldest daughter-in-law Gu Shi is just the daughter of a junior sixth-rank official, and the new bride is still a humble business girl with bad conduct. If you are married to such a family, you are not afraid of people's ridicule. I am still afraid. Besides, Yes, didn’t Ye Shiheng refuse? It’s too late to talk about a kiss, so you’d better tell your son to give up as soon as possible.”

King Qinghe said: "You can't be shameless. You can hold a banquet in a few days and invite a few ladies to get together. Mrs. Ouyang has a good relationship with General Hu's wife and Mrs. Hua Ping. They will also be invited. Let's find an opportunity. It would be much better for you to talk to Mrs. Ouyang about this matter since we are both mothers."

"Okay, listen to the prince." Although she was not happy, Princess Qinghe still agreed to the matter.

Let's say that when Ye Shiheng returned to his mansion, he put away the tea winnings he had won, and then went to Feiyuan. After visiting the old man, he returned to Rongliyuan. In the evening, I talked to Mrs. Ouyang about King Qinghe's marriage proposal.

Mrs. Ouyang knew that her daughter was beautiful and liked by many people, but she was surprised to be favored by the royal family. She said: "This is a big deal. You should refuse it well. How many relatives are there in the royal family? Which prince or county king does not have three wives and four children?" Concubine, our Hua'er has a simple temper and can't cope with the twists and turns in a big house. If you want to find a son-in-law, you have to find a simple person, a husband who is honest and enterprising, and a family with loving parents-in-law."

Ye Shiheng said: "It's better to ask Hua'er about this. You have to hear what she means."

"It is important to listen to Hua'er's thoughts when it comes to important matters in Hua'er's life." Mrs. Ouyang quite agreed with her husband. Thinking of her daughter in her prime, she added, "Don't worry about whether Prince Qinghe is sincere to Hua'er or not. He is sincere, and I don't want Hua'er to marry into the royal family. The Qinghe throne is very powerful, and if we marry him, it will probably cause unnecessary suspicion and disputes, and our Ye family may also be in trouble."

Ye Shiheng put his arms around Mrs. Ouyang's shoulders and said sincerely: "In my heart, the safety of the family is as important as the happiness of Hua'er. Don't worry, this will not happen, and Hua'er will not marry the prince of Qinghe. The Ye family There is an ancestral motto of the Ye family that no one can violate, including my daughter."

Mrs. Ouyang hugged her husband's waist, "I know, that's why my father-in-law married my mother-in-law, you married me, and Lin'er married Hua'er."

The Qinghe Palace is a huge force. The Ye family holds military power, and a marriage is a strong alliance. Not to mention what other people may think, His Majesty, as the Lord of the Song Dynasty, may not tolerate the alliance of the two forces. This It also goes against the ancestral precepts of the Ye family.
