Mu Huagui

Chapter 140 Choice
The concubine said she didn't care, but called Chen Jiao'er over, saying that she was unwell, and the prince chose a few suitable families for Zhou Yahan, so that she would take care of her when she was free.

Taking the list handed over by the princess, Chen Jiao'er immediately asked Qi Luoshu to send someone to inquire about their knowledge and character, as well as their family situation, the more detailed the better.

Zhou Yahan came to her more often, and gradually became more cheerful.Sometimes when he sees Zhou Mingyuan, he will come forward to salute and say a few words with a smile, instead of crying like before when he timidly said a word.

Zhou Mingyuan told her that Zhou Minghua's wedding date had already been set, and because Princess Xianjun was waiting to have a grandson, she would marry her next month.Although the woman felt that she was too rushed, she reluctantly agreed.

Their family must go to the wedding, whether they have disagreements in the court, or they want to get rid of them in private and then quickly.The camouflage of the royal family still needs to be displayed to the outside world.

The queen's due date is only a few days away, and Lu Huo'er specially sent her aunt Lu Qingzhu into the palace to accompany her, because the emperor was afraid that something unexpected would happen at the critical moment.

Lu Jiaojiao in the palace, the emperor has tolerated her until today, Chen Jiao'er is actually a little curious.With such a person around, why bother to be on guard at all times.

"You don't understand, the emperor..." Zhou Mingyuan suddenly stopped talking, as if remembering that it was a secret.

However, facing Chen Jiaoer's pink fist, he still chose to betray his allies, and whispered, "Didn't you give the Lu family's poison bible to the emperor?"

"You mean..." Chen Jiao'er was really shocked, she didn't expect the emperor to study this.At best, he thought that he would let his confidants grasp it, but he actually went into battle.

"When he feels that it's almost done, he will naturally deal with Lu Jiaojiao's affairs, so don't worry about it."

One of Chen Jiao'er's long-standing doubts was also solved, why Huang Zhilan died of poison in advance.It was because of his calculations that he used Lu Jiaojiao to make her fall ill early, and directly accepted all the effects that King Xian wanted to achieve, and gave him a big loss.

In such a short period of time, he was able to react so quickly and make an extremely quick counterattack.Thinking of this, Chen Jiao'er felt a little chills, although as an emperor, he should have such a scheming city.But she didn't want her husband-in-law to become such a person, so she subconsciously squeezed towards Zhou Mingyuan.

"By the way, Annan's reply letter has arrived. They actually don't object to this marriage, just say they don't like it." Zhou Mingyuan said.

That's good, the concubine will arrange to contact the Lin family to spread the word, and come to propose marriage.The most important thing now is to arrange Zhou Yahan's marriage, which is the most important thing for her in the near future.

Take the list and tell Zhou Mingyuan one by one.

"It's fine that the father is from the Metropolitan Procuratorate. His father is from a poor family and is a clean stream. The salary given by the emperor is not low. He insists on eating bran and swallowing vegetables every day. There is no such thing as a poor man."

Chen Jiao'er pursed her lips, she agreed with Zhou Mingyuan on this point.It's just a pity that this young master has excellent knowledge and character.

"The kid surnamed Huang is not good either. I don't know what his family is like. Although they are married, their family will not dare to bully Yahan, but the poor relatives of that family will come to the door every now and then to beat the autumn wind. If there is a slight mistake, they will dance. The foot said that their branch is developed, and they don't care about their poor relatives, and they don't even look at them, they have been born for three generations, so what kind of relatives are they still called?" Zhou Mingyuan pointed at this again, speaking righteously.

Seeing that the lady kept looking at him and smiling, Zhou Mingyuan said with some embarrassment, "It is agreed that you are in charge, so you should watch it yourself."

"I think what Xianggong said is very good, and it is exactly what I think in my heart." Chen Jiao'er said again, "It stands to reason that the eldest lady in our family should marry into a wealthy family and become the eldest daughter-in-law. This is not an insult to her identity .”

"However, status and life are not equal sometimes. It depends on our Yahan's current temperament. If it is really given to a big family and let her take care of all kinds, it may be too embarrassing. If the mother-in-law refuses to be considerate, I'm afraid You still have to yell outside, so that mother will lose face."

Zhou Mingyuan listened to her words quietly. Every time she wanted others to agree with her idea, she always presented a lot of evidence like this first.It's the best thing to let people get caught by her unconsciously, and when she comes up with the final result, the listeners will think it's reasonable.

"It depends on what you and your father think. Do you want her to marry into the palace or the emperor to win over a certain family or bind the family's interests together? Or do you just want her to marry a good family and live a happy life?" gone."

"Outside matters, just leave it to a man. I won't use her to marry, I believe my father thinks the same as me." Zhou Mingyuan expressed his thoughts without any hesitation.

"That's good." Chen Jiao'er felt that she had seen the right person, she couldn't help but raised her head, and lightly pecked him on the cheek.

"If you only want her to live well, it's best to find someone who is easy to find and has real talents." In this way, no matter how you think about it, you won't easily offend the palace, and you will naturally treat Yahan well.

"However, it also depends on Yahan's intentions, especially Auntie." Chen Jiao'er had a headache when she thought of Auntie's temper, and even visited her once two days ago.Every sentence is a temptation, and I think that no one else can hear it.It was really inconvenient to argue with Chen Jiao'er because of her status, but she didn't give her a good face either.

After hearing this, she cried again, stopped crying and said that she endured the humiliation and was willing to be ridiculed by the imperial concubine and asked her to give the young lady a way out.

Chen Jiao'er heard the news and couldn't laugh or cry. Sure enough, a poor person must have something to hate.

Seeing her sister-in-law making fun of her, Zhou Yahan lowered her head shyly.Chen Jiao'er laughed and said, "You should get married when you are a male college, and you should be married when a female college. I don't want to hear what you say, let your parents and sisters-in-law make the decisions, and you will be the one to marry in the end. Women have the opportunity to choose." Too little, if you live a bad life, wouldn’t it delay your life’s happiness.”

"Then, sister-in-law means..." Zhou Yahan finally raised her head, facing a piece of paper that Chen Jiaoer took out.These are the three candidates she selected after discussing with the prince and Zhou Mingyuan, and after showing it to the concubine.

Chen Jiao'er pointed to the name on the top and said, "This young master Qi, his ancestor was a hero who fought with the ancestor emperor. He is the youngest son of the family, and he is extremely doted on. Although he can't be a prince, your brother has seen his character and appearance. He is very outstanding." In the future, with your brother and the Qi family to help, the future will never be bad. The young master of the Qi family married the eldest daughter of Princess Yonglong, and the eldest daughter has just been conferred the title of imperial concubine."

No matter how old Miss Zhou Yahan was, she was only a concubine. It was not impossible for a wealthy family to enter, but being the eldest daughter-in-law of a family might be a little bit reluctant.Those who came to beg specifically for the sake of climbing the dragon and becoming the phoenix, the prince thought their family was in decline.

Seeing that Zhou Yahan was blushing but listening intently, Chen Jiaoer asked her to digest it, and then said, "Master Che in the middle is from a scholarly family, his father is a bachelor of the Imperial Academy, and his mother is from the Annan Chang family. She is very noble. Well, I think there is hope for the imperial examination.”

"The last one, as you know, is the young master Wang who lived temporarily in the palace. There is only a widowed mother in the family. She took the imperial examination the year before last and has become an official. She works in the household department of the prince's office. My mother has also been sent to the capital. Your brother said that he once visited his house as a guest, and his behavior was very dignified, so he should be from a very good family background."

"Here's their detailed situation. If there is anything unclear and you still want to inquire, feel free to ask your sister-in-law. This is a major event in your life. Don't rush to answer. Think carefully before making a decision, okay?"

Chen Jiao'er handed her the list, these were selected by the family with great painstaking efforts, each has its own advantages, it all depends on what she thinks.

"According to my sister-in-law, how do you think Yahan should choose." Zhou Yahan pinched the list, blushing like an overripe apple, and asked shyly.

"Silly child, this is related to your lifelong happiness. Of course you know best what you want." It's not that Chen Jiao'er has her own ideas, but she is not Yahan's parents after all, she would never dare to do such a thing Make up her mind.

Seeing how desperate Zhou Yahan was holding the list, Chen Jiaoer didn't want to keep her, and sent Wanxi to take her out.

Licorice listened clearly from the side, and when Zhou Yahan left, she said, "Look, servant girl, as soon as Missy takes the list back, my aunt will definitely let her choose Young Master Qi."

"That's right, Young Master Qi's family background is the most prominent." Chen Jiao'er nodded, but she thought in her heart that if Zhou Yahan heard what she didn't want to say, it would not be in vain to teach her these days.

If you marry into the Qi family, you will face a favored husband-in-law. The sister-in-law is the princess, the sister-in-law is the imperial concubine, and the mother-in-law is also the daughter of a high-ranking family. The family is prominent.On the contrary, because of her status as a concubine, she is inferior to others.No matter what you do in the future, you will bow your head and be obedient.If the husband and wife are in harmony, it's okay to say, but if they are not loved by the husband-in-law, how should they live their lives.It is natural not to dare to blatantly bully, but whoever said that not giving food is called abuse, and ignoring sometimes hurts people's hearts even more.

Sure enough, after Zhou Yahan got back the list, Auntie kept staring at Master Qi's name.Then he taught his daughter, "My eldest lady, there is nothing to hesitate about. Of course, the young master of the Qi family is the most suitable for your identity."

Some sighed again, "It would be great if the eldest son, the youngest son will not be able to inherit the title in the future, hmph, the princess must have played tricks on it, otherwise why can't I find an eldest son who can inherit the title with the status of the eldest lady of the palace."

Zhou Yahan looked at her aunt in disbelief. When she was a child, her aunt said the most that she was a concubine, so she was not welcomed by the princess and had no status in the mansion, so she was asked to be cautious in her words and deeds.Why is he so arrogant now that he feels that his identity can be matched with the eldest son who can inherit the title? Seeing that the young master of the Qi family married Princess Yonglong's eldest daughter, Princess Qingyang, you can know the requirements of this kind of family for the eldest daughter-in-law.

He murmured, "Master Che's mother is from the Annan Chang family, and it is said that she is very knowledgeable. Young Master Wang has already entered an official position and is highly regarded by the prince."
