Sir, can you marry me?

Chapter 325

The ladies were noncommittal about this.Lord Mo has a wide range of candidates for choosing a daughter-in-law. If there is no dowry, it means that a girl from a poor family is also fine, as long as the girl meets the conditions of talent and good conduct.

"Oh, since Lord Mo has set such a family rule for the Mo family, mothers who have girls in the family and want to marry Dingbeihou will have to work hard." The empress said kindly, her face was full of smiles, but the smile Can't reach the bottom of the eye.

When Mo Yuxuan was still Ling Yuxuan, he publicly refused Mrs. Ling to accept him as a concubine. The charming and beautiful Miss Zhu Er stepped out of the sedan chair and knelt down and begged him to take him in. The daughter gave up the idea of ​​being a concubine and nepotism with him; he now has a certain family rule, and his sons' marriage will not be easily affected by the marriage of the family.He is meticulous in thinking, decisive and ruthless in his actions. He is worthy of being cultivated by Prime Minister Ling and the emperor together.

She looked at Xiao Wenqing, with hesitant calculations flashing in her eyes.

Some high-ranking officials and aristocrats fancy a promising person, and if that person is already married, they will secretly use means to force that person to divorce his wife or reduce his first wife to a concubine, or even kill his first wife, and then make himself a concubine. The daughter married in the past; her natal family always wanted to marry Mo Yuxuan, and now there is an urgent need for marriage, but Mo Yuxuan himself is the emperor's favorite minister, important minister, second-rank Marquis, who can force him to divorce his wife, or marry his wife? Downgraded to a concubine?What's more, Xiao Wenqing already gave birth to a son, and no one had any reason to demote her from a wife to a concubine, so the eldest son became the eldest son.

Xiao Wenqing is the wife chosen by Mo Yuxuan himself. In order to train her, who has been a maid for ten years, into a noble lady who can socialize with noble ladies of aristocratic families, Mo Yuxuan has spent a lot of effort.She should be his love and his weakness.It's just this Xiao Wenqing, how can she win her over?From the information she got, she knew that Xiao Wenqing was not a person who liked to socialize, she just took this as a responsibility and tried to maintain a friendly relationship with the wives and daughters of various families.

"Oh, it's a pity, it's the little girl from my natal family who is not lucky enough to be the first to make an appointment with the young master." The empress smiled and shook her head, and then said, "Wen Qing, Lord Mo is already thirty-one this year. Having only one son means that the heirs are too weak? You are the head wife of the Mo family, and you have the responsibility to prosper the Mo family and let the children of the Mo family grow together." If Xiao Wenqing offered Mo Yuxuan a concubine, Mo Yuxuan would not refuse, right?
Xiao Wenqing was suddenly filled with displeasure. She finally got rid of her mother-in-law's oppression, and the empress was free to care about Yuxuan's back house again.

"I report to the Empress, the fate of children is determined by heaven, and it cannot be changed by ordinary people's hard work." Xiao Wenqing bowed and said, "The Marquis has always had his own ideas about taking concubines, and no one else is allowed to intervene. Mother-in-law, no, old man Ling I used to take concubines for Lord Hou, and Lord Hou was...very angry." Since Yu Xuan is no longer the son of the Ling family, she no longer calls Mrs. Ling mother-in-law.

Could it be that the wind blows too much on your pillow, and Master Hou doesn't want to take concubines anymore?

The queen and all the wives were muttering sourly in their hearts, and they said that Xiao Wenqing was a good imperial husband, and Lord Hou only favored her.

Xiao Wenqing had a slight smile on the corner of his mouth.No matter what they say, as long as they don't attract Yu Xuan's attention, she will be very satisfied.

The queen and the wives chatted some more topics, and the time soon came. The eunuch at the Jiaotai Hall came to report that the banquet was all ready, and the queen and the wives were invited to the table.

"Today's Mid-Autumn Festival, I originally wanted to invite all the wives to enjoy the moon together, but I thought that you would also be reunited with your family to enjoy the moon, so I changed the dinner to a lunch. Everyone, join me and enjoy the imperial dining room Delicious food, listening to the new song and dance by the music workshop." The queen got up after speaking.There is a family banquet in the palace tonight, and all the princes and grandchildren in Beijing will bring their wives into the palace to reunite with the emperor and her; imperial concubines are not ordinary concubines, a large group of daughters-in-law and grandsons-in-law will come to worship in front of her at night.

"More concubines to give you a banquet." Seeing this, all the wives got up and bowed one after another, letting the empress step down from the imperial platform, and then followed her to the Jiaotai Hall.

Mrs. Minister of the Ministry of War and Xiao Wenqing are relatives, she deliberately lagged two steps behind and waited for Xiao Wenqing to approach, and then walked side by side with her.

She whispered: "Wen Qing, the empress is not happy, please wait a moment and deal with it carefully."

The Empress has always wanted to recruit important ministers with military power for the King of Qin, and she has been recruiting her, the wife of the Ministry of War, for seven or eight years. Every time she enters the palace, she is trembling.The former dynasty is a man's world, while the harem is a woman's world. Although women can influence men's decisions, their influence is limited.What's more, before the crown prince was abolished, none of the officials in power would explicitly support King Qin.Now that there is no crown prince, the important ministers and close ministers are watching the emperor's words and feelings, and faintly feel that King Qin's chances of winning are not great, and that Prince Rui has been reused by the emperor recently, and they are unwilling to take the risk of choosing between these two princes.Although the emperor is old, he has a clear mind, and the princes are still under his control. Outsiders, it's better not to enter the muddy water of the royal family.

Xiao Wenqing nodded slightly, and said gratefully, "Auntie, thank you for reminding me." She knew that the queen wanted to win her over, so she just gave the queen a soft nail. shoes to wear.But she is pregnant, and when she gets sick, she can find a reason not to go to the palace for a long time to avoid the empress's wooing.
