sick princess

When Guoxiao had just passed away, many noble ladies came to the door in the name of caring for Baoluo.Now that Baoluo is sick, Empress Dowager Xu is worried, so she wants to call the noble lady who came to visit Baoluo into the palace to talk with her.At the same time, it was reported that the Fu family proposed to congratulate the Longevity Princess, and the Empress Dowager Xu was quite moved.

When the ladies who received the news knew about it, their hearts skipped a beat, secretly thinking that it was terrible.

It's true that they want their nephew to be the Lord, but they don't plan to let their son marry a princess who is about to die of illness!If the Longevity Princess can marry into their family well, they will naturally benefit immensely from Emperor Yongjia's love for this younger sister.But if the Longevity Princess is gone, it will be hard to say.It's unlucky to welcome a dead person into the house, and their nephew might even be labeled as a wife restrainer.

What's more, the situation of the Longevity Princess this time is really extremely dangerous and shocking.Even if she survived by luck, no one would dare to welcome her again.Princess Longevity's body is too weak, if something goes wrong one day, wouldn't their whole family have to be blamed?Furthermore, if they married such a daughter-in-law, they might not expect to have grandchildren or nephews.With a body like the eldest princess, how dare you let her give birth?With Emperor Yongjia and Empress Dowager Xu staring over his head, how dare he let the son-in-law take a concubine?

From this point of view, what you can get from marrying the long-lived princess is only a glamorous appearance, and it is not affordable at all.

These noble ladies who are able to enter and leave the palace and show favor to Baoluo overtly and secretly are all from first-class and second-rate families in the imperial capital. Marrying a princess daughter-in-law is the icing on the cake for them. If they do not marry a princess daughter-in-law, it will not affect their own status. Naturally, they will not be like the Fu family and the He family, who are bent on facilitating this matter.

But in just a few days, those who were able to betroth their own nephews went to the woman's house to exchange Geng Tie.Those who couldn't settle down immediately tried to find ways to hold back their illness.

When the date set by Empress Dowager Xu came, only two-thirds of the wives actually entered the palace.Here, there is still a small half who has already engaged his nephew and nephew, so he doesn't worry about it.

The rest of those who could not find an excuse not to come, and failed to make marriage arrangements for their nephews, were extra careful when talking to Queen Mother Xu, and tried not to let Queen Mother Xu have the opportunity to shift the topic to their nephews.

Although they concealed it very well, after all, Queen Mother Xu has stayed in the palace for so many years, so naturally she could not fail to see their small thoughts, and immediately lost the desire to talk to them.

These people, when they saw her daughter looking good, they all wanted to come to her daughter, but now when her daughter has something wrong, they shrank away like turtles, as if they had completely forgotten how much they used to pursue her daughter .

With such a family, how could the Empress Dowager Xu rest assured to entrust her precious daughter to her?Baoluo is her eyeball, even if she is happy, she will never promise Baoluo hastily.

Empress Dowager Xu didn't talk to these wives for a while, and a look of exhaustion appeared on her face, and she let them go away.

Several of the shallow-minded wives immediately showed expressions of relief, which caused the Empress Dowager Xu to snort in displeasure.

"Hey, just now, did I act too obviously? The empress dowager won't see it, right? God can learn from me. I don't have any disrespect for the eldest princess and the empress dowager. It's just that my kid is really useless. I can't afford to be the kindness of the Empress Dowager..." the woman said vaguely.

"Who says it's not? The eldest princess is so seriously ill that she is about to die. Who is willing to celebrate her with the eldest son of the first branch of the family? But the one from the first branch, or the one from the side branch, the queen mother The empress definitely doesn't like it. From my point of view, I'm afraid that only a family of fourth or fifth rank like the He family would use the eldest son to gain a better future. If this is not selling a son, what is it?"

"Shut up! You can just talk about these things in front of us. If the empress dowager hears it, I'm afraid she will be unhappy."

"That's natural. I'm not the kind of person who doesn't know how to measure. Naturally, I won't take it outside and talk about it..."

But from the later period of the first emperor, Empress Dowager Xu has been quite powerful in the palace.Now, with Emperor Yongjia ascending the throne, her control over the harem has been further strengthened.These imperial wives think that their conversations are very secretive, but in fact, how can they avoid the eyes and ears of the Empress Dowager Xu?

It didn't take long for these words to reach the ears of Queen Mother Xu.

Empress Dowager Xu suppressed the smile on her face, and said indifferently: "Go, tell those gossiping people that in the future, they will not be welcome in the Compassionate Ning Palace of the Ai Family!"

Empress Dowager Xu naturally knew that if her daughter wanted to be happy, it would be difficult to find a young talent to match her.Therefore, she can also understand the mentality of those women who are afraid to avoid them.But some people don't know how to measure, and they must say that her daughter is only worthy of marrying into the He family, which is a popular family, and I'm sorry.

It made her feel uncomfortable, so she had no choice but to make those people feel uncomfortable!

……

The father and son of the Lan family led the Daxia army. After a hard fight, they defeated the soldiers of the Beirong and wiped out nearly half of the troops of the Beirong.

Different from the small victory last time, this time, the Great Xia Army won a complete victory. The King of Beirong didn't show any blood this time, so don't try to get away easily.The Great Xia treasury was empty due to several wars. How could Emperor Yongjia not make up for these losses from King Beirong?

Everything is going well, except for An Guogong's injury.

This time, during the fierce battle, An Guogong was seriously injured by an arrow feather shot by King Beirong.If it weren't for Duke An's injury, the army would not have slowed down.Fortunately, An Guogong has a good foundation, and although he is far from recovering from his injuries, his spirit has improved a lot.

What is gratifying is that with the news of the Great Xia Army's victory, Baoluo's condition has also improved. She is no longer in a situation where her life is hanging by a thread at any time like a few days ago, but she is not completely out of danger yet.

Although Emperor Yongjia was worried about his younger sister, he was the king of a country after all. It was impossible for him to stay in front of Baoluo's hospital bed for a long time like Queen Mother Xu. He needed to deal with the affairs of the court and the army. As the emperor, he also needed to go to the city. Welcome at the door.

Although the rise of the Lan family father and son began with their blood relationship with the late emperor, it has to be said that the father and son have always been so reassuring when it comes to fighting.

"The two lovers did not live up to my expectations. This time, I, Daxia, was able to repel the Beirong people. The two lovers have contributed a lot. I wonder what rewards the two lovers want? As long as I have it, I will definitely not be stingy!"

An Guogong thought for a moment, and said: "During this battle, many soldiers were injured and disabled, and they will no longer be able to stay in the army in the future. I implore the emperor to give them some good land to grow, so that they can earn a living. Also let them know the kindness of the emperor."

"It's said that An Guogong loves soldiers like sons, and it's true. I agree with this request. Doesn't Aiqing ask for something for herself?"

"Chen..." An Guogong thought for a long time, but he couldn't think of what he needed, so he said: "I can't think of it for the time being."

"Your Majesty, my father has nothing to ask for, but I have something to ask my Majesty." Lan Chengyu saluted Emperor Yongjia.

"Oh, let's hear it?" Emperor Yongjia seemed quite interested.

"Chen Xinyue, Princess Longevity, please marry me to Princess Longevity!"
