Reborn to choose a husband, I will lead the deposed prince to seize my ex-husband’s kingdom

The ancestors of the Zhao family were tired after having been busy for a long time, and the birthday banquet in the backyard was naturally coming to an end.

The brothers in the front yard wanted to go to the building to have a drink together in the evening, and the wives of each family took the lead in leaving with their juniors.

As soon as Zhao Ying got on the royal carriage, Xie Chongyu ran up with a smile on his face: "Mother, I have your attention today, Princess Rui."

Zhao Ying rubbed her brows to relieve the fatigue of today. Because the power of Zhenguo Palace was not as powerful as before, Xie Chongyu first came to her to marry Xu Mingyue as his concubine.

But after witnessing what happened today, she immediately changed her name to Princess Rui.

It seemed that her youngest son really took Xu Mingyue into his heart.

Zhao Ying knew the answer in her heart, but she chose to ask: "Who do you like?"

"Xu Mingyue, the legitimate daughter of the Xu family."

Xie Chongyu told Zhao Ying what happened at the rehearsal place, and his words were full of joy.

Seeing that Zhao Ying did not express his position, Xie Chongyu continued to praise:

"My son listened to her guqin music in the attic today and felt very good. Now even the mistress of the Chen family in Lu County praised her character. A woman with such skill, character and appearance should marry into Heaven."

Zhao Ying gently shook the fan in her hand, thinking of Xu Mingyue's every move today, and the eyes that fell on Xie Chongyu showed caution.

Zhao Ying figured it out. Xu Mingyue came to this banquet today to prove to the women and children in the back house of the capital that she could bear the title of the destined daughter.

Since she wanted to take up the title, it was with the intention of marrying one of her two sons.

"Chongyu, God's will is said to be magical, but the power in your hands is the real thing. Are you sure you want to give up the support of the Prime Minister for her?"

"The Zhenguo Palace is not as good as before."

Zhao Ying's heart was biased. She preferred Xie Chongyu's simple-minded younger son, and she always wanted Zhao Muyun to marry Xie Chongyu.

Without thinking, Xie Chongyu said: "Mother, with the love of you and my father, I don't need to rely on my in-laws to win over the court officials. I will not be a rebel."

Zhao Ying raised her hand and slapped Xie Chongyu on the forehead: "You bastard, please speak up."

"Mother, people all over the world say that she has this kind of destiny in her. I will marry her back first. If she has the ability, she will secure her position. If she doesn't, she can't blame anyone."

These words reverberated in Zhao Ying's mind, and a new idea suddenly came to her mind.

It seems reasonable that Xu Mingyue and Zhao Muyun married the same person one after another.

The expression on Zhao Ying's face became a little calmer, and she made it clear what she had promised in the past:

"Your father once promised her father and brother that she would make the decision on her own marriage."

"And your imperial brother failed in his early marriage proposal. If you did get married, I would be worried that your brother would be separated."

They all crawled out of Zhao Ying's belly. Zhao Ying didn't want the two brothers to fight to the death.

"The queen is too worried."

Xie Chongyu sat next to Zhao Ying and pinched Zhao Ying's shoulders rather casually.

Without Xu Mingyue, he and Xie Chongan would not be of the same mind.

"The Xu family's legitimate daughter should marry as the wife of the Eastern Palace. If the emperor's brother cannot do it, it will be the turn of God's will."

"Is it possible that the mother still wants the sons born by other concubines to inherit this destiny?"

When Zhao Ying heard this, she realized that what she said at the birthday banquet today was inappropriate. Xu Mingyue had no chance of marrying into an ordinary noble family.

Fortunately, Lin Yan did not arrange a marriage for Xu Mingyue in court today, otherwise there would inevitably be discord between her and Xie Yan.

"She will also come on the Mid-Autumn Festival."

"I think you can test their willingness in advance and then decide how to act on the Mid-Autumn Festival."

Zhao Ying's words are a reminder. If the two are in love, then they will go with the flow. If not, then Zhao Ying doesn't mind a little threat and coercion.

Zhao Ying also knew in her heart that she would not be able to reach the step of threatening her. The purpose of Xu Mingyue's setbacks today was to marry into the Tian family.

"Thank you, Queen Mother. Don't worry, I will definitely do this properly."

--

After getting on the carriage, Xu Mingyue, who had been tired for a day, leaned lazily on Lin Yan's shoulder, enjoying the warmth from her mother-in-law.

He lowered his head and looked at the newly acquired jade bracelet. The color of this jade bracelet was an excellent imperial green, with green flowers faintly floating on it. The dots connected in series turned into a distant view of beautiful mountains and rivers.

Something like this that has symbolic meaning at first glance cannot be used casually to reward others.

Xu Mingyue had other ideas in her mind, but she was not in a hurry to ask Lin Yan now.

In a very good mood, Xu Mingyue raised her hand leisurely, pointed at the plate of gold and jade in front of her and said:

"Tiantian, Youyu, if you find an opportunity, pawn everything. The money you get will be enough for Tiantian to eat pork knuckles for a lifetime, and enough for you two to buy clothes for a lifetime."

Tiantian followed the words; "Thank you, girl, I will pawn it all later."

Youyu shook her fan to fan Xu Mingyue, and said softly: "The girl has won so much joy today. If the master hears it when he comes home later, he may have to show it off to the court for several days."

"You Yu, you made a mistake." Xu Mingyue took the iced fruit Tiantian handed over and said, "Daddy has to show off for at least half a year."

Tiantian added: "The second young master may even instruct people to publicize it everywhere, so that everyone in the capital knows how powerful the girl is."

Xu Minglang would indeed do this, but Xu Mingyue would not allow Xu Minglang to do this.

The veil of some things is interesting only if it is slowly unveiled.

The carriage stopped at Wangshu Tower. Lin Yan knew that Xu Mingyue still had something to say, so she stood on the second floor with Xu Mingyue.

The evening breeze passed by, and the square pavilion was well shaded by the trees. Even if there was no ice plate, it was not very hot at the moment.

The round fan in his hand swayed slightly, and Lin Yan asked: "How come Yaoyao called all the masters over to support you today?"

Without the Yu family, even if Xu Mingyue could make a name for herself, she would have to be overpowered by Zhao Muyun on someone else's territory. How could she be so happy?

"I don't have that kind of ability." Fox eyes were full of cunning, Xu Mingyue was still doing Tai Chi with Lin Yan: "But I can probably guess whose handiwork it is, but I won't tell my mother-in-law."

Lin Yan took two steps back and sat on the soft stool: "Aniang also has the answer in her heart, and she won't tell Yaoyao."

"Humph." Xu Mingyue chuckled softly and sat next to Lin Yan: "Auntie, I heard that Xie Qingyao lived in Chen's family in Lu County before he was six years old. Did he once have the surname Chen?"

Lin Yan laughed out loud, how long could she endure Xu Mingyue?

"Auntie doesn't know."

Gently shaking Lin Yan's arm, Xu Mingyue began to act coquettishly: "Aniang, Aniang, please tell me."

Lin Yan saw that Xu Mingyue was in a particularly happy mood today than before, and knew that some people had seen Xu Mingyue in another appearance.

But Xu Mingyue must have been kept in the dark before today.

"In order to marry the legitimate daughter of the Chen family, the late emperor secretly used the name of his wife as his wife. Eight years after he ascended the throne, the late queen gave birth to his eldest son. This son not only took the surname of Chen, but was also raised in Lu County before he was six years old. , to be trained according to the head of the Chen family."

Xu Mingyue held a round fan and fanned it to Lin Yan: "That means the eldest son was born only in the tenth year of marriage. Royal heirs are important, so why is it so late?"
