Second marriage to the regent

Chapter 27 Dilemma
Feng De looked at the worried emperor and knew that he was still worried that Li Junyi would kill the emperor and usurp the throne as rumored.

He immediately changed the subject and said: "Now that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has reached the age of establishing a Crown Princess, the Prime Minister's daughter, General Jiang's daughter and Anguo Duke's daughter have not yet left the cabinet. Why doesn't the Emperor take this opportunity to choose a suitable candidate for the Crown Prince? ?”

Feng De believes that no matter which one the prince chooses, it will be of great help to him. The power of the three major families cannot be underestimated. If the prince can win over one party, he will be able to sit on the throne safely in the future.

The emperor also felt that it was time to choose a crown princess for Li Kunyi, and he also wanted to have his grandson.

"Follow me to Yongning Palace and see the queen." The emperor stood up and left.

Watching the emperor's figure gradually lengthened by the light and shadow, Feng De quickly followed him.

Yongning Palace

The empress learned that Li Xiangyue's fall into the water was directed and acted by herself. In order not to get married, she did such a ridiculous thing and threw a lot of things in anger.

A palace maid hurriedly walked in. The angry queen saw such a reckless palace maid and shouted directly: "You have no rules! Pull out the stick and punish her!"

The palace maid was so frightened that she knelt down before she even arrived: "Your Majesty, please forgive me! I saw the Emperor leading people towards Yongning Palace, so I lost my etiquette. Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty?" The Queen was a little confused. Could it be that the Emperor knew about this and came to investigate?
"Forget it, let's get down!" The Queen took back her orders and sat on the cave waiting for the Emperor's arrival.

The neat maids cleaned up all the scattered objects in the house and prepared tea just before the emperor arrived at Yongning Palace.

As soon as the emperor came in, he saw that the queen had poured tea for him and walked over with a smile.

"The Queen's news is quite fast. The tea has been prepared before I came in!"

As soon as the emperor finished speaking, he couldn't wait to take a bite.

Seeing this, the empress said with a smile on her face: "It's rare for the emperor to come to Yongning Palace. If I can't do this little thing well, what will I do if the emperor doesn't come in the future?"

"Hahaha!" The emperor laughed a few times: "The queen still loves to joke! You are Tianzhao's queen and my legitimate wife. How could I forget you?"

Then he took the Queen's hand and said comfortingly: "I am here today for Yi'er's marriage. Does the Queen have a daughter-in-law that she likes?"

Although the emperor had an answer in his mind, he still had to ask the empress for her opinion first. After all, Li Kun listened to her more.

The empress was a little stunned after hearing this. Why did the emperor suddenly want to choose a concubine for the prince?

Could it be Li Junyi?

The Queen is also worried. If one of these three major families really chooses one, they will definitely offend the other two. When the two families join forces, they will be tied at most.

But the most worrying thing is Li Junyi. If he also falls in love with one of the three people, if he succeeds, his power will definitely endanger the throne, and his son will be roasted on the fire?

"Is the Emperor worried that Yi'er will offend the other two families no matter who he chooses?" the Empress asked unabashedly.

The emperor sighed deeply and said, "I naturally hope that these ministers can live in harmony, but in the face of interests and power, it is difficult for anyone to balance loyalty and justice."

I don’t know whether the emperor was talking about those ministers or whether he was referring to his brother Li Junyi, who had been through life and death together.

The Queen seemed to see the guilt in the Emperor's heart, but this was always the case among emperors and heirs. If he was not cruel, he would be the one who fell off the pedestal.

"Your Majesty, there is no need to blame yourself. There are many things for which we cannot have the best of both worlds. If we want to get one, we must ruthlessly abandon the other.

Although the Prime Minister's daughter is also noble, the Prime Minister only has this daughter, but General Jiang is different from Duke Anguo.They both have a son with comparable abilities. The emperor still needs to make a careful decision between the two. "

The emperor was also in trouble, and he had no choice but to answer: "Since you and I can't choose an answer, let's wait until Yi'er returns to the palace and let him choose by himself!" Thinking of Chang Juerou, the daughter of Taifu Chang, The Empress suddenly said meaningfully: "Taifu Chang is Yi'er's mentor, and his daughter Chang Juerou is also infatuated with Yi'er. Once the candidate for the crown princess is decided, I will take her into the palace and wait for some time. I'll be sitting on my side concubine. What do you think, Your Majesty?"

The emperor knew that the queen wanted to return a favor and was just a concubine, so naturally he would not refuse.

Then he nodded: "That girl, I also have some impressions. Since the queen likes her, the queen can make the decision herself."

city ​​gate

When the army arrived at the city gate, the ministers who came to greet him saw Li Kunyi's carriage and ran over before the horse could stop.

"I am here to greet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince by order of the Emperor!"

As he spoke, his eyebrows and eyes rose, and he smiled happily.

Li Kun just responded through the curtain: "Your Excellency, please come to greet me. I need to return to the Prince's Mansion first, and then return to the palace tomorrow."

"I understand!" The minister stepped aside knowingly.

"Brother, just put me in front of the Marquis of Jing'an Mansion later."

Seeing that Su Junxi had entered the city gate, it was hard for her to follow Su Buyue back to Duke Anguo's Mansion. It was time for her to go back and see the situation in Jing'an Marquis' Mansion.

Su Buyue said nothing, just nodded in response to her.

The carriage soon stopped in front of the Marquis of Jingan's Mansion. As soon as Su Junxi got off the carriage, she saw Jun'er sitting alone on the steps in front of the door. When he saw Su Junxi coming back, he immediately got up and ran over and said : "Jun'er welcomes mother home!"

Su Buyue saw that the child who threatened to kill her sister last time actually called her mother today and shouted so happily. She thought it was a scam, so she kindly reminded her: "Little sister, you need to pay more attention and don't trust her gullibly."

After saying that, the carriage left.

Just as Su Junxi was about to ask why Jun'er was at the door, Jun'er whispered in her ear: "Mom, I want to see you."

When Jun'er said this, his body was shaking and he was afraid.

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Bai could no longer hold back so quickly. It seemed that Li Wanwan was monopolizing Tang Zhili, which obviously made her furious.

She gently touched Jun'er's head and said with a smile: "Now is not the time. Mother promises you that as long as you obey mother's words, mother will bring your aunt back."

"Really?" Jun'er looked directly at Su Junxi with expectant eyes.

Su Junxi responded with a smile: "Of course."

After saying that, she pulled Jun'er into the house.

Mrs. Ye was looking for Jun'er in the house, and was a little stunned when she saw Su Junxi and Jun'er having such close contact.

She couldn't believe her eyes. Could it be that Su Junxi wanted to win Tang Zhili's favor through Jun'er because she was infertile and her son had a new love?
"Jun'er, come to grandma!" Mrs. Ye waved to Jun'er with a smile.

Jun'er did not run over immediately, but looked back to see Su Junxi's reaction.

Su Junxi pushed his back: "Go ahead. Just remember to come back and have dinner with your mother later."

"Jun'er knows about mother!"
