Lucky Star Gao Zhao

Chapter 678

The sixth prince came back to Concubine Ning, and this time he had a better mind. He didn't teach his mother and concubine how the fifth prince copied Buddhist scriptures.

Concubine Ning was surprised by her son's behavior and asked, "Why do you want to go to Lao Wu's place?"

"I'm not thinking about getting married early. If I get married early, how can I surpass my fifth brother, so I went in and asked him."

Concubine Ning is even more strange, she is usually called the fifth elder brother, but now she is called fifth brother.

The sixth prince sighed and said: "I went in and took a look, the fifth elder brother's courtyard is really bleak, the decoration is also simple, and there are not many palace people."

"His mother is gone, how can Concubine Zhuang be willing to spend on him? Besides, Concubine Zhuang doesn't have much money on her body, so she has to keep it for the elderly? You know the difference between having a mother and not having a mother this time, right? Don't be angry with me in the future." .”

The sixth prince said with a shy smile: "The son did not make the concubine mother angry."

She lowered her voice and said, "Mother and concubine don't worry, when the son gets married and leaves the palace, the mother and concubine will live with the son and let the son and daughter-in-law be filial to you."

Concubine Ning's smiling face lowered her face when she heard the last sentence: "Wait until your daughter-in-law is filial to me, or will I be mad at me? Then I will follow the example of Concubine Zong and stay in the palace."

It's a bit of a taboo to say this, but the sixth prince still knows this, so he quickly changed the subject and said, "Concubine Mother, help me prepare a wedding gift for Fifth Brother. Anyway, he is going to get married before me, so I have to give a gift as my younger brother, mother." The concubine should be more prepared, and then she will appear respectful as a brother and friend, and the emperor will be happy."

Concubine Ning is not a stingy person, seeing her son say this, she praised: "My son has grown up and is much more sensible."

"I have always been sensible, but the world misunderstood me, alas!"

After speaking, he sighed.

Concubine Ning burst into joy.

After Huo Yinggui left the palace, he went straight back to Xi's mansion.

She didn't want to live in her aunt's house, but there were only her and her brother in Huo's house, so it was impossible to move out, but she also kept an eye on the houses in Beijing, and if she found a suitable one, she would buy one.

If my elder brother can marry Tang Shuyue and will stay in Beijing for the next few years, then it will be my elder brother's residence.

Before his grandfather left, he left enough silver, which was the same arrangement. If the marriage with the Tang family fails, it will be left to her dowry house in Beijing.

But she saw that Tang Shuyue liked her brother a little bit, but she had to work harder, and there was still a need for an elder to help her.

My aunt is definitely not good, it is better to be someone from the Tang family.

She inquired inside and outside the Tang family, and found that there was nothing wrong with people or things. Tang Shuyang and the fifth prince seemed to be friends by default, otherwise it would be impossible for him to come out and stand in line.

Huo Yinggui lived in the same yard as his cousin Xi Mulan in the Xi Mansion, and his uncle worked in the Imperial Academy. He was a bit rigid, but he was kind to his relatives, and he even told his wife to treat the Huo family well.

At first, Xi Mulan was curious about this cousin who came from afar, but she didn't expect to become the sixth concubine when she first arrived. Not to mention she was shocked, even the people of Xi's mansion were shocked, and she treated the Huo family brothers and sisters well.

After getting in touch with Huo Yinggui for a while, Xi Mulan found that the cousin who was known as reckless and impolite by outsiders was not like that in Xi's mansion, although the cousin deliberately behaved vulgar in front of servants.

So Xi Mulan knew what she was doing, but she was honest with her cousin.

Unexpectedly, after her good friend Tang Shuyue came, her cousin and Tang Shuyue fell in love. Xi Mulan secretly observed and found out the reason.

When her mother asked her if she would marry her cousin Huo Yingkai, she refused.She doesn't want to get involved in right and wrong.

Today when my cousin entered the palace, my mother brought me a post. She was a little embarrassed, and my mother also looked helpless.

"Since the second princess asked you to go, you should remind your cousin more, and just don't let her cause trouble in her house."

"Mom, what does the second princess want to do? Please cousin and cousin for no reason. Cousin and cousin have been here for so long and haven't seen her post a post. I'm afraid she..."

Qian Shi said: "It's okay, Concubine Shu and Concubine Ning have a good relationship, the second princess will not do anything to the sixth concubine, she is not afraid that Concubine Ning will eat her, but she is also afraid that her own mother will eat her, anyway, no matter who the Wang family is, Stay away from everyone, mother and father can't help it, so you should try to leave it alone."

When Huo Yinggui came back, she shrugged when she heard her cousin say that she would go to the second princess the day after tomorrow.

Both the eldest prince and the second princess were born to Concubine Shu, the second princess was the elder sister, married to the eldest son of a scholar of the Hanlin Academy, and her husband was a doctor of the Five Classics of the Imperial Academy, a family of literati.

Qian's husband-in-law is Concubine Shu's cousin, and Huo Yinggui is the concubine of the Sixth Prince, so they can be related.

Concubine Shu's father is still there, but he is deaf and blind because he is old. Concubine Shu's brother, who just does things regardless of right and wrong, is often complained by Concubine Shu.

The people of the Xi family and the royal family tried to avoid it as much as possible. The Qian family has been married for many years and naturally understands the direction of her husband's family.

Huo Yinggui thought that the second princess was just trying to win her over, and he just didn't listen to her.

"Cousin, I'll just go tomorrow. Speaking of which, I haven't seen many princesses. I just met the second princess."

Seeing her cousin's expression of wanting to talk but embarrassed, she pretended to be nonchalant and said, "Cousin, don't worry, I will pay attention to it. When the time comes, talk less and act like my cousin."

Xi Mulan could only nod her head, she couldn't tell her cousin about the matter here, mainly because she couldn't explain a few sentences clearly.

Huo Yinggui pretended to chat casually with his cousin, talking about Princess Pingwu.

She has been paying attention to Prince Qing and Princess Wu, who were born to the old concubine Jia. Speaking of her marriage, it was Prince Qing who talked nonsense and put her and the sixth prince together.

Later, when my grandfather inquired about it, the three of them understood what was going on. The sixth prince had offended the Hou family, which was Prince Qing's cousin's natal family.

After inquiring inside and out, the prince's thigh needs to be hugged. Since he wants to hug the prince's thigh, then the prince's relatives have to be friends.

The other day he said he liked the pony, but in fact Huo Yinggui had already found out that Zhuangzi belonged to Princess Pingwu's family, and he was just looking for an excuse to get close.

It happened that I happened to meet the son and daughter-in-law of Princess Pingwu. When I saw that the daughter-in-law was the same age as her, I remembered it.

"I like that little black horse. It's a pity that people say it has an owner and won't sell it. Cousin, it would be great if I could get to know Princess Pingwu's daughter-in-law. I think she is very kind and not like that domineering person. I will marry you in the future." For the sixth prince, Princess Pingwu is relative."

Xi Mulan said: "Princess Pingwu's daughter-in-law was not from Beijing before, and everyone is not familiar with her. Although there are private discussions that she came from a small family and married into the princess mansion for some reason, no one dares to go around. Inquire. Cousin, try not to ask about the Princess Mansion when you are outside."

Huo Yinggui asked again: "Cousin, my aunt also explained to me, I'm just curious, Princess Pingwu is the emperor's aunt, why didn't she become the eldest princess?"

Xi Mulan said in a low voice: "I heard my mother tell me quietly that after Emperor Chengzong passed away, Emperor Jian'an wanted to promote Princess Pingwu to be the eldest princess, but Princess Pingwu refused. Later, the current emperor After succeeding to the throne, none of the princesses, uncles and princes were promoted, so..., that's it."

Xi Mulan also shrugged like her cousin.

Huo Yinggui's eyes rolled, and he understood in his heart. He heard that the emperor is very stingy. If everyone is crowned the throne, he will get a lot of money.
