Nine-fold lotus of the famous family

Chapter 532 The imperial decree bestows marriage, a dilemma (1)
Dodging the patrolling guards, Ah Fu took a small path to the side hall of Yongfu Palace in the dark. Fortunately, she checked this path several times in advance so that no one would find it.

The lights in the side hall had already been extinguished. She had told the attendants that if she didn't want to be punished by her sister, it was best to pretend that she was already asleep.

Ah Fu smiled triumphantly, taking advantage of the clear light of the moon into the hall, she turned into the inner room with a cat body, but just as soon as she stepped on the marble steps of the inner room...

Suddenly, with a "click", the candles on the walls of the entire inner room were lit up, and Ah Fu suddenly saw the imperial concubine sitting on the brocade yellow satin spring stool with a gloomy expression, and was startled , turned around and wanted to run back.

"Let me stop her!"

The imperial concubine didn't move, but the servants on both sides stepped forward neatly, blocking Ah Fu's way with a few strokes, leaving her nowhere to go.

Only then did Ah Fu sigh, turned around helplessly, forced a smile, and said, "Sister, it's already getting late, stop making trouble, the little prince and princess are still waiting for you in the palace, I'll see you off right now." You go back to the palace!"

The imperial concubine's eyes dimmed, and a trace of anger flashed in her eyes, but she waved her hands and said, "You all step back first!"

Ah Fu lowered his eyes a little uneasily, and wrung his hands together, like a child who has done something wrong.

"Minfu, come here!"

After everyone had retreated, the imperial concubine sighed and waved to Ah Fu.

Ah Fu is also Princess Minfu of Xiliang, but she can't tell Ji Chongyu about her identity, not to mention that she still pretends to be a court lady to find her.

Princess Minfu moved over slowly, obediently stood in front of the imperial concubine, and called out in a low voice, "Sister!"

"You girl," the imperial concubine pulled Princess Minfu to sit down, and pointed at her forehead, "You used to be naughty in Xiliang, and my father didn't care about you, but this is the palace of Daning, if you There is no way to act, and we will lose face in Xiliang!"

"Yes, I understand."

Princess Minfu stuck out her tongue secretly, but felt relieved. It seemed that her sister didn't know where she had gone.

The imperial concubine refused to let her sister go, so she put on a serious face, "This is the second time you have left the Yongfu Palace in private, where did you go?"

Princess Minfu pouted and said, "It's just walking around, you know I'm bored by myself." Seeing the imperial concubine's expression changed, she hurriedly changed her words, "Don't worry, sister, I won't dare again in the future!"

"Minfu," the imperial concubine sighed, and said earnestly, "You don't know how many people in this palace are waiting to pick on my sister's faults. I come from Xiliang and have no helpers in the court. If I hadn't given birth to a little prince I'm afraid that this position is not stable..."

Princess Minfu bit her lip, her eyes turned red suddenly, and said aggrievedly: "Then sister can trade me in exchange for me to marry that number one scholar?"

"Why don't you girl understand my sister's painstaking efforts?"

The imperial concubine shook her head helplessly and said: "The number one scholar is not only quick-witted, but also young and talented. You are a good match in every way to marry him!"

"There is also his older sister, who is Mrs. Pei of the Zhongyong General's Mansion. Even the Queen wanted to be a matchmaker for her younger brother, but she pushed her away. Such a family will definitely not be a follower of power!"

"Furthermore, Mr. Pei is now the commander-in-chief of Gansu, holding the military power in his hand. He is a general trusted by the emperor. If we are related to their family, the little prince will be more likely in the future..." The imperial concubine paused at this point, pinched Squeezing Princess Minfu's hand, he said expectantly: "Do you understand my sister's intentions?"

She has come to this point, who doesn't want her son to be the emperor, if she has this opportunity, she will naturally fight for it!
Otherwise, when the emperor is gone and the eldest prince ascends the throne as emperor again, can the three of them, mother and son, be accommodated in this palace?

Princess Minfu's eyes darkened, and she turned her head stubbornly, "My sister said that they wouldn't even buy the queen's bill, so could it be possible to agree to this marriage for your sake?"

"That's why my sister decided to cut it first and play it later, and ask the emperor to give me a marriage!"

The imperial concubine laughed suddenly, her eyes seemed to be filled with water waves, rippling out circles of ripples.

She is used to being cold on weekdays, and her occasional smile is like a spring breeze blowing through a pool of pear blossoms, but the white snow is so beautiful that it is unbelievably beautiful.

Princess Minfu remained silent, the imperial concubine couldn't help but suppress her smile when she saw it, she just took her hand and said seriously: "Minfu, elder sister knows your temperament, and you don't like us in Xiliang. Otherwise, why didn’t you get married when you were sixteen?”

"My sister asked you to marry Zhuangyuan Lang out of many considerations, but if that person is not really outstanding, how could my sister wrong you?"

"Although the men in Daning Kingdom are not as strong as our Xiliang men, they are handsome and polite to others, and they are even more courteous to their wives. What's more, you are married as a princess. Their family will never dare to treat you badly. your!"

Princess Minfu sighed helplessly, she already knew very well what was waiting for her fate.

Back then, in order to please King Liang, who is now the emperor, the father married his outstanding elder sister to the palace. She was still a concubine, but the elder sister didn't complain at all for the sake of righteousness.

Could it be that when she came to her place, she could do whatever she wanted, completely disregarding the overall situation?

Although Xiliang belongs to Daning, there are quite a lot of people who have different ideas inside, and does Daning really believe them?
From her point of view, it is not the case, Liangcheng is still stationed with heavy troops, isn't the emperor guarding Xiliang for them?
The situation is not as optimistic as she seems, and the situation of her sister in the palace...

Princess Minfu turned her head and glanced at her elder sister. The elder sister who used to be so carefree now has worry and anxiety in her eyes. The situation in the harem is changing, and it is not a smooth road!

She had already met the empress, such a deep and shrewd woman, not to mention the empress had the emperor's eldest son, and her sister's situation in the harem was not safe.

As long as there is power and interests, there will be battles!
Maybe she had already vaguely expected this when her father took her to the capital, but she just pretended not to tell the truth.

She still wants to meet the number one scholar, maybe she also wants to find a reason for herself to refuse or fulfill her!
Little did they know, her fate was already doomed!

It's a pity, it would be great if this Zhuangyuan Lang was that idiot.

She is not stupid, she can see that the concern in his eyes is sincere, and she has not been repelled or underestimated because of her status as a court lady, and she will naturally not be more flattered because of her status as a princess in the future.
