Lord Prime Minister

"Long time no see, Royal Sister."

The man had a warm smile on his face, dressed in white clothes shrouded in the golden afterglow of the sunset, he looked gentle and harmless, but Wenmei knew that behind this smiling face was the heart of a wolf and a tiger.

Wenmei lowered her head and suddenly remembered that she hadn't visited the emperor's brother for several months. She was afraid for a while, thought for a while, and said: "Today, the concubines from the palace went to the temple to pray for the emperor. May the Bodhisattva bless my brother to be safe. The Bodhisattva is really effective, and I saw my brother when I came back..."

Pretending to be a relaxed joke but getting no response, Huangfu Mingxuan raised his head and looked down at her slightly.Wenmei became nervous again, and slowly lost her voice, then lowered her head again.

"I know this, Cuiping told me just now." Raising her hand, Cuiping came out from the corner, put the tea down on the table, glanced at Wenmei, and quietly backed away.

Huangfu Mingxuan turned around and sat down on the chair, pointing to another chair.

Wenmei hurriedly sat down, not daring to say a word.

"Ask Mei, how old are you this year?" The lid made a soft sound when it hit the teacup, Huangfu Mingxuan blew on it to dissipate the heat, and asked casually.

"It's sixteen."

"En." Huangfu Mingxuan nodded and put down his teacup, "Time flies, you have already reached the age of marriage. Now that your mother and concubine are gone, I should take care of you. I have already made plans for your marriage, Let's get married in a few days."

"Brother Huang..." Wenmei stood up, a little in disbelief that the first thing he came out was her own marriage.

"The other party is the richest businessman in the capital, with a huge property. Although there are several concubines in the family, the main house has been vacant. After you go, you will be the official, and you will not be wronged." Huangfu Mingxuan continued, regardless of asking How about Mei, he made up his mind to marry her.

Wenmei bit her lip, her face turned pale, her fingers were hidden in her sleeves, her heart was full of panic, fear, worry and unwillingness, but finally she just silently lowered her head.The obedience and weakness rooted in her heart cannot be changed in two years. She hates her incompetence, but dare not resist.

"Don't go out these few days, I will send some people over to teach you about the marriage, you stay in the palace and don't run around." Huangfu Mingxuan asked again, and didn't ask Mei at all, and didn't care what she thought.

Now there are very few officials in the DPRK who support him. In the past two years, the people who stood in his faction have been replaced by new faces. It is almost impossible to win over the person who is the queen at a glance.Then we had to start with the money first. A son-in-law like the richest businessman in the capital was more effective than several officials.

Huangfu Mingxuan asked again when he didn't get a response after speaking, and turned to look at her. "Did you hear that?"

Wenmei's hand holding the cuff was loosened and tightened, and the stone in her hand was clenched, and the clenched tighter and tighter, until the palm of the hand was hurt by the stone, and then she let it go as if she compromised.

"Yes, brother."

"That's it. I will find a time to ask father to be fulfilled. You can wait in peace in the palace." Huangfu Mingxuan stood up, as if he was about to leave.

"En." While agreeing, he got up from the chair, agreed again, and carefully sent the person out the door.

After the eldest prince left, Cuiping came out and saw the eighth princess standing outside the door, as if she was collapsed, stepped forward to comfort her, "Princess? Are you okay?"

Wenmei remained motionless, as if she had lost her soul, Cuiping asked her and she didn't answer, she didn't know what she was thinking.

Cuiping was worried for a while, and she ignored the loss. She knew that the princess had someone she liked in her heart, and now the eldest prince asked her to marry when he came. He asked: "Just now when I saw the princess coming in, she was full of joy and called me by my name. I don't know what kind of happy event the princess encountered when she went to the temple to offer incense today?"

Wenmei finally moved, and said softly: "No, there is no happy event." After speaking, she turned and went back to the room, and closed the door to prevent anyone from entering.

Although Cuiping was worried, she had no intention of disturbing the princess. She was just worried that she would do something stupid, so she knocked on the door to say hello from time to time.

The first thing the eldest prince did after he released his foot restraint was to go to the Hall of Mental Cultivation to pay his respects to the emperor, and then he went back. Unexpectedly, he came here in the evening.Although Eunuch Li was puzzled, he did not hesitate to report to the emperor, and opened the door to let him in after getting permission.

Huangfu Mingxuan thanked him earnestly before walking in. The emperor was sitting in front of the table reviewing the memorial, with a bright yellow coat on his shoulders. The room was a little dim, and the candles had already been lit.

Kneeling and kowtowing to pay respects, Huangfu Mingxuan said softly: "I pay respects to my father."

Emperor Guangcheng looked at the memorial without looking at him, but replied: "Didn't you come here just now? Get up."

Huangfu Mingxuan stood up in response, and said, "My son just went to see the eighth emperor sister. It turns out that the younger sister already has a sweetheart in a short time. As soon as she saw me, she dragged her to talk to me. My son thought, Now that the concubine mother is gone, it has been really bitter for the imperial sister to live alone for the past two years. Now that she has a sweetheart, I must promise the imperial sister happiness in the future. After much deliberation, I came to the imperial father again, hoping that the imperial father can grant the imperial Preside over Wenmei's marriage."

Hearing this, Emperor Guangcheng finally put down his pen, raised his head and asked, "How old is Mei now?"

"It's the age for marriage leave, sixteen." Huangfu Mingxuan replied respectfully.

Emperor Guangcheng nodded and coughed violently a few times. Huangfu Mingxuan raised his hand to stop Huangfu Mingxuan from stepping forward to help him. He coughed a few times and then stopped, his voice becoming weak. "Since you have the heart, I will leave it to you to do it."

Huangfu Mingxuan was overjoyed and agreed again and again.

Emperor Guangcheng picked up a memorial and opened it, went to the cinnabar pen again, and asked casually: "How is that man's family? How is his character? Which official's son is he?"

Huangfu Mingxuan lowered his eyes slightly. "The family is fairly well-to-do, and he treats people kindly. He can be regarded as an aspiring talent, but he is not a member of the court, but a businessman."

"Businessman?" Emperor Guangcheng raised his head and asked, then nodded again. "It's fine as a businessman, I'll leave Wenmei's marriage to you. There hasn't been a happy event in the palace for a long time."

"Yes, Royal Father, the minister there will step down first." Huangfu Mingxuan bowed his fists, and after getting permission, he exited the Hall of Mental Cultivation. When he went out, he greeted Eunuch Li before leaving.

Miaotong just came back from Nanyuan today, pestered Longxiu to accompany her to practice martial arts, and finally decided to go back to the palace after seeing that the time was late and being invited again and again, passing by the Hall of Mental Cultivation, just in time to see Huangfu Mingxuan coming out of it, she was stunned for a moment.

She almost forgot the existence of the First Prince, has it been two years?Has the foot ban been lifted?

I came to see my father just after the ban was lifted, and I was so happy, I don't know what bad idea I had.

Miaotong walked over quietly and patted Eunuch Li on the shoulder outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation. "Eunuch Li, when did Big Brother come out?"

Eunuch Li was taken aback by him, but Miao Tong had always been so used to it, so he could only pat his heart and said, "This morning."

Miaotong stretched her neck to look at Huangfu Mingxuan's back, pouted. "Brother, what do you want to do with your father? You are so happy."

Eunuch Li shook his head, "Your servant is standing outside the door, how would you know?"

Miaotong refused, knowing that Eunuch Li deliberately didn't tell her. "Eunuch Li can hear you standing outside the door."

"I can't hear you." Eunuch Li said while looking at Miaotong, who was sweating profusely. The clothes on her body were not the princess's palace clothes, but a set of weapons. There was no bun, and she just stood up, gesticulating all over her body. None, can not help shaking his head. "It is also good for the seventh princess to learn etiquette. Now that the eighth princess is about to get married, you should leave the martial arts field and do more embroidery..."

"The eighth princess is going to get married?" Grasping this sentence, she asked again with her eyes wide open. "Brother Da Huang was talking about this just now?"

Eunuch Li was startled, knowing that he was talking too much, he accidentally said what he said, so he closed his mouth, Ren Qigong asked nothing.

Miaotong pestered him for a while and asked him, but he didn't get an answer, but she knew in her heart that it must be because of this matter, so she stopped asking, thought about it and went back to the palace.
