Chapter 1588： cut out the heart

The next day at the palace, Zhulan felt uncomfortable wearing her official clothes. The official clothes were too solemn, which meant it was very heavy. For Zhulan, who seldom went out and liked comfortable ones, she was very disgusted to enter the palace.

Zhulan took Su Xuan to the queen's bedroom. The queen was resting for a long time. This time, her complexion was a little better, and it was rare to see a hint of ruddy on her face.

The Queen has already prepared refreshments, and when the reception is over, the Queen smiles, "I haven't seen the old lady for many days, the old lady is getting better and better."

The tone was envious, and seeing Mrs. Zhou Hou's wealthy appearance meant that she was living a long life.

Zhu Lan replied, "The minister's wife is a fat woman, eats well, sleeps well, and her complexion will naturally be better."

The queen sighed in her heart. Don't look at her resting, but her heart is not idle. She has to guard the harem, worry about the prince, and worry about the mother family. The effect of her resting is not very good. "The old lady tastes the new tribute tea."

As soon as Zhulan came in, she smelled the aroma of tea, picked it up and took a sip, "Good tea."

Su Xuan, "..."

What kind of tea comes to the mouth of father-in-law and mother-in-law is good tea, and they want to laugh.

The queen curled her lips, "This palace has prepared some, and the old lady will bring it back to the Hou residence later."

Zhulan is not pretentious, she prepares it in advance, and it is especially given to the Hou Mansion when she sees it, "Xie Niangniang."

The queen looked at Su Xuan and was stunned, "The county owner is getting more and more radiant, she really looks like the mother of a teenage child."

Su Xuan has never understood why her mother-in-law brought her into the palace alone today, so she carefully replied, "The emperor's grace is so great that the people are well-being, and it is only when the courtiers and wives have a smooth life that they look a little younger."

The queen felt comfortable when she heard it, but her eyes flashed with regret. The emperor beat her. After she was seriously ill, she felt that her life was not long, and she wanted to make a precondition for her death. After many years of love, the emperor may have agreed very high. Later, she was really afraid of Zhou Hou, Zhou Hou is a person who can give up everything. After the emperor beat her, she thought for a long time that it is better to live hard.

The queen said again: "The first few girls in the Zhou family are married, and the betrothed, and now it's the fifth girl's turn. I heard that there are many people who come to ask for marriage."

As soon as these words came out, both Zhulan and Su Xuan became nervous.

The queen paused and continued: "I heard that the fifth girl is quiet. I heard from the emperor that Zhou Hou is reluctant to get married early. If the fifth girl has chosen someone, I will give you the marriage in person."

Su Xuan, "..."

Bamboo Orchid, "..."

No, who cares about your marriage, even the son-in-law we choose doesn't care about it. In case the granddaughter wants to divorce her husband after one day, it is not easy to divorce her husband if you have a marriage, so you can only be widowed.

Zhu Lan thought about it a bit, got up quickly and said, "The court lady has thanked the empress for her kindness, but my grandfather can't bear to be wronged by his granddaughter after marriage."

The queen understood after thinking, "!!"

No, who's granddaughter doesn't look forward to He He Meimei's life when she gets married, and no one dares to provoke the fifth girl when she gives her marriage. This marriage has not been decided, so I have to think about how to deal with it if the marriage is not good. It is a long experience!

Su Xuan also widened her eyes, and then pressed the corners of her upturned mouth. She can control the Su family alone, and she is not a person who follows the rules, so it's normal to have a bad life and be far away!

Su Xuan knew in her heart that her daughter was not going well after her marriage, and she really dared to divorce her husband, not to mention divorce.

After the queen sent them away, she was still a little dazed, "The Marquis of Zhou and his wife let the head of the palace know."

The female official said with a smile, "The Zhou family is the one who really cares about their daughter."

The queen was silent, yes, it was the Zhou family who really loved their daughter.

After leaving the palace, Su Xuan was a little stunned, "Mother, the queen has not seen anyone for a long time, and today she summoned us alone, why is it?"

Just to say marriage? Do you send something?

Zhu Lan looked at the large and small boxes in the carriage, "First, the Queen summoned me alone to show that the royal family attached great importance to Zhouhou Mansion, secondly, the Queen also wanted to express that she would not have any grudges against Zhouhou because of the Wen's family, and thirdly, to discuss Yuwen's marriage is to show the emperor that she has no extra thoughts about Yuwen."

Su Xuan, "Why do you say you have no idea about Yuwen?"

Zhu Lan said faintly: "The prince is going to get married, there are many discussions about the candidate for the side concubine, and the queen has moved her mind."

Su Xuan was frightened. Bah, she didn't expect monstrous wealth, she only hoped that the lazy girl would live a smooth life, and the concubine was also a concubine. Isn't this gouging out her heart?

Su Xuan, "Mother, where did you see it?"

Zhulan pointed to the location of the palace, "I heard what your father-in-law said, and I had a hunch that it came true today."

Su Xuan stared at her mother-in-law. Seriously, her mother-in-law was nothing like a child who grew up in the village. Even if she taught her wife behind her father-in-law, her mother-in-law was very talented. Learned a lot from my mother-in-law.

When they got home, Zhulan registered the items sent by the queen in the register. These were all unregistered items that could be given away in private, such as fine tea leaves and silk and satin sent to the palace.

After going to the yamen, Zhulan didn't take entering the palace seriously. After talking with Shuren, it was over. When Shuren and the emperor came back from playing chess and talked to her, she was mentally prepared.

So what the queen said today is not surprising, obviously the emperor beat the queen.

The fourth room was not calm, and Changzhi didn't read the book after dinner, "What you said is true?"

Su Xuan rolled her eyes, "Could it be true what Mother said?"

Changzhi, "The harem is a whirlpool, Yuwen is really being calculated, and our Houfu is really a thorn in the eyes of a family in the capital."

Su Xuan was also terrified, "Who said it wasn't, father is half of the prince's master. The emperor and the emperor place great importance on father. Our mansion will face many calculations, and the daughter is even more dangerous."

If it does happen, the Shangguan family will also break up with the Hou Mansion. Whoever made the daughter really become a side concubine will endanger the position of the prince concubine of the Shangguan family.

Changzhi lowered his voice, "Did you say that Dad found something, that's why he made a fuss in the court?"

Su Xuan hesitated, "It's really possible."

If Zhou Shuren knew it, he must have said that he didn't think so much. If the emperor didn't ask him to play chess, he would never doubt that the queen was thinking about his granddaughter. He thought he had expressed his attitude towards the royal family clearly enough!

Time flies The autumn harvest is over in a blink of an eye, and the township exams are also coming to an end one after another, all waiting for the results.

This year, Jiang Du participated in the township examination, and after waiting for a few days, the list came down, and many people in Beijing went to see the list.

Ming Rui accompanied Shangguan Liu to watch the list today, and of course Chang Zhong and the Fourth Prince who joined in the fun.

When the list came out, Shangguan Liu ranked third, a good ranking. Shangguan Liu was very satisfied. It was several places higher than he thought. Seeing Mingrui still staring at the list, he smiled and said, "What? Are you sorry?"

Ming Rui, "I will not regret my decision, but I just saw the name of the sixth son of Wen."

Shangguan Liu is very fond of the Wen family, and everyone has something to do with the prince, "Sixth?"

Ming Rui, "Well, let's go out, it's too crowded here."

Shangguan Liu looked at the rankings again. The first is the eldest grandson of the Minister of Punishment, the second is not a familiar family member, and the fourth and fifth are all acquaintances.
