The Empress Dowager's Love in the City

Chapter 106

Long Jingye, who had finished the morning court, took off his draped dragon robe and put on casual clothes, but it was still dark in color, with his long hair loosely scattered behind his head, his left hand behind his back, and his right hand holding a glass of wine. He didn't even know when he fell in love with 'wine'.

He raised his head and swallowed it in one gulp, but asked lightly into the air: "Can Prince Jun join Yang Wu and the others?"

Han Ying, who appeared silently, clasped his fists with both hands, lowered his head slightly, and replied: "Reporting to the master, as far as I know, the crown prince joined the princess and the others yesterday, and he should be on his way to the imperial city by now!"

"I see, what are the old men doing about the concubine selection?"

"My lord, because of the words you said in the court that day, those people did not dare to act lightly, but those courtiers with girls at home are very busy, and they are all working hard for the election. Prepare for the concubine's affairs!"

"What's going on with Lord Zhen Guo?"

"The Duke of Zhen's mansion isn't too lively. He must have felt that he will win. In addition, Duke Zhen has always loved his granddaughter. He has raised her as a jewel in his palm since he was a child. Everything is still in the palace To teach you the rules, and to do so much is just to wait for the day when your master will speak!"

"Very good! I heard that the old man's granddaughter is indeed talented, and she is also the number one beauty in the imperial city, but what is her name?"

"The granddaughter of Duke Zhen is named Murong Xian!"

"'Murong Immortal'? Let me find out whether you are immortal or not?"

"Master, this Murong Xian is indeed known as a 'fairy' in the imperial city. It is rumored that she looks beautiful and refined, gentle and tranquil, and is proficient in all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. exist!"

"It's better to see once than to tell a hundred stories. How about it, let's see it first! How long is it until the day of choosing a concubine?"

"Return to master, there are still three days!"

"Well, I see! You go down!"

"Yes, my subordinates retire!"

……

On the town government's mansion...

"Grandpa, I'm going to get angry!" Murong Xian, the granddaughter of Lord Zhen Guo, said coquettishly.

"You child, I don't want grandpa to say that you are going to marry the emperor and become a queen sooner or later. What's so embarrassing?" Duke Zhen said dotingly.

"Oh...Grandpa, Xian'er is really going to get angry and ignore you!" After speaking, Murong An turned around and really ignored him.

"Okay, okay! Grandpa doesn't say anything! You! You are a big girl who is going to marry, and you are so thin-skinned!"

"I don't want to get married. I want to stay by Grandpa's side and take care of Grandpa!"

"This is impossible! I don't want my precious granddaughter to delay her life's happiness for an old man like me!"

"Hehe, I just like to stay under the protection of grandpa!"

This Duke of Zhen is a poor man. When he was young, he fought with the first emperor and put down the Japanese pirates who harassed the Longteng border. He was born and died. Later, he didn't find a wife until he was middle-aged, and he was almost forty years old. Only one son.

But the heavens were not good, the grown-up son, Murong Xian's father, died of an incurable disease less than a year after he got married. Fortunately, he was already pregnant with Murong Xian at that time.

Originally thought that even if there was no son, there would still be a daughter-in-law and grandson, but Murongxian's mother died of dystocia when she gave birth to Murongxian, and gave birth to a granddaughter, which made Zhen Guogong feel cold for a long time. for a while.

Fortunately, after a long time, he also accepted the reality. At any rate, he still has a descendant in this world who is related to his blood. Although it is a female doll, he also treats her as a treasure.

When Murongxian was less than six years old, his wife also abandoned him, and now only his grandfather and grandson are left alone in this world. Fortunately, he has the authority that the former emperor entrusted to him when he was in power. The military power has had certain power over the court over the years, and it is a good day.

Duke Zhen Guo originally planned to marry his precious granddaughter into the royal family, because he felt that the entire Dragon Teng could only be matched by the current Holy Master. His grandson is not only smart, but also very beautiful, It is not an exaggeration to describe it as a shameful flower in a closed moon. In addition, since she was a child, she has invited various teachers to teach her, so it can be said that she is a perfect woman.

In fact, it's strange to say that Murong An has fallen in love with him since she met Long Jingye from a distance since she was a child, even though she was only eight or nine years old at that time, and he was already a 15-year-old boy.

From then on, she wanted to marry a man like Long Jingye who was not only handsome, but also noble, and had unparalleled strength. At that time, she thought that he would marry a wife in a few years, But she is not yet an adult, she definitely has no chance to be his wife, but with the passage of time, he has never had the intention of marrying a wife, and he has successfully become the emperor above the dragon.

She didn't know how happy she was, and she knew that her favorite grandfather wanted to marry her to him. However, in the past few years, he had no intention of choosing a concubine. Until a few days ago, he announced in the court that The news that she was going to choose a concubine made her feel so excited.

Is it finally time?Is it finally possible to marry him?She thinks about these things every day, but when grandpa actually mentions them, she will still feel shy like a daughter and blush involuntarily.

"Xian'er, our father and son have been living together for so many years, now that you are getting married, old man, I really can't bear it?" As he spoke, the circles of Duke Zhen's eyes became moist.

Murong Xian hurried over to hold Duke Zhen's arm affectionately and said, "Grandpa, Xian'er can't bear to part with you either!"

"Hey! Okay, whether you are willing or not, the girl will marry sooner or later when she grows up. This time, grandpa asked you to enter the palace to serve the emperor. Is Xian'er really willing?"

As soon as Zhen Guogong said this, Murong Xian immediately blushed again. She was wearing a pink tunic dress today, and now she just called it like a peach blossom blooming in spring, especially beautiful.

"grandfather……"

"What? You don't like the emperor? If you don't like Grandpa, I'll make another arrangement for you..."

"No! Who said I don't like it anymore!"

"Haha...haha... Then, you are willing to send you into the palace, grandpa!"

"En!" Murong Xian replied shyly with her head lowered.

"That's good! Our fairy is only suitable for a man like the emperor! There are three days until the concubine selection ceremony, so you should take good care of it, and you will surely be crowned by the time!"

"Oh...Grandpa, I won't tell you anymore, I'm going back to my room!" After speaking, he got up and ran away.

"I'm sorry again!" Duke Zhen said dotingly, looking at his granddaughter's back.
