I asked you to save the villain, not to take him as your wife!

Because she believed deep down that Zhou Ji would never agree to any marriage proposal, Bai Qiu Ming continued to eat well and sleep well.

However, because of Shen Liyue's arrival, he did not return to the palace to rest, but stayed in the inn.

Shen Liyue left her hometown for more than 20 years. After returning, she did not go to the Dingguo Marquis Mansion.

Her father, mother, and grandmother have all passed away.

The current Dingguo Marquis Mansion is controlled by her blind brother.

She was afraid that she would get into bad luck after going there.

Before the welcoming banquet held for her by the Great Zhou, she only met one person, and that was the current Queen Mother of the Great Zhou.

After not seeing her for many years, her good friend was still as kind and pure as ever, but she had changed beyond all recognition.

But Shen Liyue did not regret it.

It would be very disadvantageous for her to stay in Da Zhou.

After all, a heroine in a sad novel can only get love after she dies.

But is she rare?

She is not rare.

What's so rare about the love of a group of blind people?

So she married Qiu Ci without hesitation. Even when she learned that the prince she was going to marry had many concubines in his mansion, she didn't care.

Anyway, she doesn't love the other person.

Unexpectedly, this allowed her to marry a good man.

In Shen Liyue's imagination, she would not like a man with many concubines even if he looked like Tony Leung.

But when she found out that his concubines were not concubines at all, but widows of soldiers who died in battle, her opinion of him changed completely.

She said, how could the concubine of a prince have such mixed looks.

It turns out that these women were not concubines at all.

And none of his more than twenty daughters was actually his.

As for why these widows have no sons, actually they do.

But he can treat his daughter as his own, but not his son.

The son has the right to inherit the throne, which confuses the royal bloodline.

Therefore, separate arrangements were made for the widows of soldiers who had given birth to sons.

How proud is Shen Liyue?

If he really had children with so many women, it would be impossible for her to give birth to Bai Qiu Ming with him.

Shen Liyue and the Queen Mother of Da Zhou met outside the palace.

To be more precise, it is outside the imperial city.

There is a Red Leaf Mountain outside the imperial city.

Although the maple leaves on the mountain have not turned completely red at this time, the red and yellow colors are still pleasing to the eye.

The two most noble women of the two countries talked and drank in the maple forest with cheerful laughter.

They talked about the interesting things that happened when they were waiting to be married, and then talked about their respective lives in the past twenty years since they were separated.

The life of the Queen Mother of the Zhou Dynasty was rather regular and boring.

The only thing we can talk about is probably our two children.

But Shen Liyue's life is much more colorful.

She promoted trade between Qiuci and other countries and sold Qiuci's cattle and sheep to various countries.

We also made woolen sweaters, woolen quilts and the like.

In your spare time, you can also go horseback riding on the grassland.

The Queen Mother of the Great Zhou listened to Shen Liyue's story, holding the wine glass in one hand and supporting her cheek with the other, with a longing look in her eyes.

"That's great." After Shen Liyue finished speaking, she sighed softly.

"If you like it, go and try it." Shen Liyue picked up the wine jug and took a sip of wine, saying with a smile.

The Queen Mother of the Great Zhou shook her head: "I am the Queen Mother of the Great Zhou, it is not possible."

Shen Liyue disagreed: "Why not? I tell you, happiness is the most important thing in life."

The Queen Mother of the Great Zhou smiled and shook her head again without saying anything.

How could she not know?

But as a queen for more than 20 years, all her edges have been smoothed out.

Although they are the same age, Shen Liyue still has the light of a young girl in her eyes, while she has become a stagnant pool.

I am old at heart, but I don’t look old on the outside, and I don’t have the mood to have fun or go crazy.

"Let's not talk about it anymore. Life is pretty good now." The Queen Mother of the Great Zhou waved her hand and said.

Her son became emperor and her daughter was filial and lovely. What else could she be dissatisfied with?

"Actually, today, I have something I want to ask you." Shen Liyue said, rarely showing a bit of embarrassment.

"Go ahead." The Queen Mother of the Great Zhou was also a little curious.

What on earth happened that would make Shen Liyue have this expression?

"Does the matter of our children's marriage, as we said before, still count?" Shen Liyue asked.

The Queen Mother of Zhou was stunned for a moment.

She looked at her good friend, smiled and nodded: "Of course it counts, but the children have to be willing. My Jing'an seems to have someone she likes."

As she spoke, she sighed.

"I'm not talking about Jing'an." Shen Liyue said.

"If it's not Jing'an, then who is it?" The Queen Mother of Da Zhou was really stunned this time.

If she remembered correctly, Shen Liyue only had one son, Bai Qiu Ming?

That’s not right. Shen Liyue actually has a bunch of daughters.

Does she want to marry a daughter to Ji'er?

"Are you talking about Ji'er?" asked the Queen Mother of Zhou.

Shen Liyue nodded.

"Ayue, I may not be able to agree to this." The Queen Mother of the Great Zhou said depressedly.

Without waiting for Shen Liyue to speak, she continued, "Only he can decide his marriage. I also hope that he will get married soon, but he just won't."

Shen Liyue was stunned. This was different from what she thought.

She thought that when the Queen Mother of the Great Zhou said that she could not agree to her, she meant that she could not agree to Bai Qiu Ming and Zhou Ji being together.

The result is that he is unable to arrange Zhou Ji’s marriage?

"What you mean is that as long as Zhou Ji agrees, you will agree?" Shen Liyue asked.

The Queen Mother of Da Zhou nodded: "That's it."

Shen Liyue understood.

"Okay, then I'll talk to him directly. Come, let's drink." Shen Liyue picked up the wine jug.

"If you can persuade him to get married, then I have to thank you." said the Queen Mother of Da Zhou.

Shen Liyue said nothing and silently filled the glass of wine for the Queen Mother of Da Zhou.

I just hope that when that time comes, the Empress Dowager Zhou won't point fingers at her and scold her.

……

In the blink of an eye, it was time for the welcoming banquet held by the Great Zhou for Queen Qiu Ciguo.

The welcoming banquet was very lively.

Some ministers who knew Shen Liyue had complicated expressions.

As for why it is complicated, only they themselves know.

At the welcoming banquet, Shen Liyue didn't say much, but every word she said was meaningful.

The banquet ended successfully.

But the real topic comes after the banquet.

The ministers in the hall were still toasting each other, but Zhou Ji, Bai Qiu Ming and Shen Liyue had already left.

"My aunt said she had something to talk to me about. What was it?" Zhou Ji looked at Shen Liyue with a respectful attitude, not showing any signs of being crazy at all.

Shen Liyue looked at Zhou Ji carefully and nodded in her heart.

With such looks and good temperament, it’s no wonder that his son can’t live without him.

"Since you call me aunt, I will also treat you as a junior. Aunt, I will speak frankly. What do you think of my A-man?" Shen Liyue spoke directly.
