Chapter 288
Seeing that Ye Leyi didn't seem to be very clear, Ye Zi'an quickly explained: "Princess Huaiyi, you should know that she is the younger sister of the emperor's mother and compatriots. Princess Keyi was not born to the empress dowager, but a favorite concubine of the former emperor. , Not liked by the Queen Mother.

She also knows the Queen Mother's attitude, and she is not active at ordinary times. Princess Wen Ning is the princess who married far away in the south of the Yangtze River, and Princess Yongning is the biological sister of King Zhan. "

"Since they are of the same generation, why is one named the eldest princess and the other not?" Ye Leyi asked curiously, not knowing the ancient rules.

"The emperor and the queen mother are not happy. It is said that the relationship between the favorite concubine and the queen mother is very bad. Naturally, the child is involved. Princess Huaiyi is the younger sister of the emperor's mother. The emperor will naturally grant her favor."

Ye Zi'an said in a low voice, "Now there are only these four princesses in the royal family, and the ones before that have already passed away."

"Then it looks like this, is it true that there are few princesses? Are there few at birth or what?"

"On the one hand, few are born. Eighty-nine percent of the children born to the royal family are sons, and only one to two percent are daughters. But daughters are not easy to live, and they are easy to die early. Therefore, since the founding of the country, every generation of princesses has survived. You can count on one finger."

"I see." Ye Leyi nodded thoughtfully.

War Palace.

Gu Xiuyuan originally wanted to find Ye Leyi, but thought that he had just returned, he was full of dust, and he might have to clean up, so he stopped thinking about it.

After Gu Xiuyuan packed up, he went to the study.

The boss received a message and hurried over to report, "Master, this subordinate has received news that Princess Wen Ning's family seems to be coming to the capital to live for a while."

Gu Xiuyuan paused, "Wen Ning? Why did she come back suddenly? Didn't she stay in Jiangnan all the time?"

"The subordinates don't know either. They only said that they felt uneasy because they didn't fulfill their filial piety by the emperor's side. They brought their family members here to see the emperor."

Gu Xiuyuan snorted coldly when he heard the words, "Boss, do you believe this reason? Since you feel uneasy, why did you ask yourself to marry Jiangnan? What are you going to say now? I want to be filial by my father's side. believable."

The boss asked with some hesitation: "Master, what you mean is that Princess Wen Ning has some other purpose in coming to Beijing this time?"

"I remember that Wen Ning's child is not young, right? It is reasonable to say that in the first few years it was because the child was still young and couldn't live without his mother, but now Wen Ning's child is going to talk about marriage, and the child Little, can't you justify it?

Wen Ning's husband has gradually taken over the family a few years ago, and now is a busy time, so how could it be possible that he simply came to see his father?It is certain that they have other purposes, but they don't know what they are planning. "

Gu Xiuyuan snorted coldly, he wouldn't want to get involved in the prince's fight because his father was getting older now, right?When Wen Ning left the capital at the beginning, he wanted not to get involved in it. Now that he came back suddenly at this time, he always felt that this matter was a bit weird.

The palace, the imperial study.

Naturally, the emperor also received this news, couldn't help being stunned, and said: "So that's how it is. He was waiting for Xiu Yuan to come back. This child Wen Ning is very shrewd."

Eunuch Qian next to him endured it, but still asked, "Do you have any guesses, Your Majesty?"

The emperor nodded, "It is indeed a bit of speculation."
