Rebirth of the Demon Queen

Chapter 281 Face

"Your Highness the Crown Prince is a great gift, and he has rules both internally and externally, and I am very pleased."

Fang Luan said very humble, but the emperor's heart was getting heavier and heavier.

Beidi was just a barbarian country. Emperors of Dayan all dynasties have always despised Beidi very much.

Not only did he despise him verbally, he also had nothing good to say to Beidi in the history books of Dayan.

Xie Yao's peace talks not only placed Bei Di and Dayan on the same position, but also made various concessions in front of Bei Di.

Especially the cedes of the five cities to Beidi, which is the most intolerable thing for the emperor.

Even though the current situation of Dayan is inexplicably dark, in the emperor's heart, he always regards himself as the lord of revival.

Over the years, the emperor has devoted himself to political affairs and has been vain with civil servants, which has earned the reputation of being generous and kind.

If he is divided into divisions in his position, there is no need to think that his evaluation in later history books will drop significantly.

These pillars of the imperial court also don’t know such important issues.

After resigning from the emperor and returning to Wenhua Palace, Xie Yao finally couldn't help asking: "Mr. Zhang, the only one left in the peace talks is to make the decision, why do you have to discuss it again?"

This time the emperor is willing to choose a concubine for several princes. This is a rare opportunity for households with suitable daughters.

"How can I not know these principles? This is the biggest errand that my father has assigned since I entered the Eastern Palace. All the civil and military officials in the court are staring at the peace talks. If something goes wrong, wouldn't it be a shame to the people of the world?"

Because Taizu had a command order back then, all emperors, princes, concubines, and palaces were selected from ordinary women.

However, there are still many places left, and there is still a chance to fly up the branch and turn into a phoenix.

Therefore, the capital city focused on choosing concubines.

The quiet and handsome girl suddenly appeared in Lin Zisu's mind. When Zheng Mochen brought Zheng Peiyao to the mansion that day, the two had a few words of friendship.

Xie Yao couldn't stop winking at Zhang Ruogu, and Zhang Ruogu just pretended not to see him.

It is said that among the candidates, there is a girl named Zheng who was favored by Concubine Tang Zhuang and was about to become the future third prince's concubine.

Xie Yao paced in the hall quickly and said, "Is there any way to convince the father?"

Zhang Ruogu said with a grudge: "Your Majesty has always wanted to be comparable to Ruizong. This time he gave up his stance and negotiated with Beidi, which was also forced by the situation. If he was urged, he would make His Majesty dislike him."

The prefectures and counties in various places have elected 5,000 women of appropriate age. First, they are screened by the Ministry of Rites, and then evaluated by several nobles in the harem to select the final suitable candidate.

"Zheng Peiyao?"

Shortly after Qiu Guangzu and Rong Zonghou entered the pavilion, they had never said anything in front of the emperor. It was rare to have this opportunity. The two of them winked each other and said in unison: "There are all under the Prince's Hall, and I am convinced."

Zhang Ruogu was contemptuous and said politely: "Your Highness, don't panic. Now Jinlan Pass has elite troops to guard it, and Upp still has 20,000 elite cavalry. Even if Beidi wants to turn against him, it will not be that easy."

I thought that even if Marquis Weiyuan had some small thoughts on his daily life, he was still a person who knew the general.

Xie Yao knew that Zhang Ruogu was right, but he was extremely unwilling to accept it. He immediately complained: "We can afford to wait, but the third prince of Beidi cannot. If Beidi turned against him because the peace talks failed, what can I do if I Dayanru?"

When he looked up again, the emperor put on a kind expression and said, "After all, the prince is young, there will always be some omissions. You can't praise him and you still have to mention the opinions you should make."

But he seemed to overestimate the influence of peace talks. What the people in the capital are most concerned about now is not peace talks, but the selection of concubines from the Ministry of Rites.

Fang Luan responded casually, Qian Minzhong and Lu Zhiyuan just bowed but did not answer.

Zhang Ruogu shook his head and said, "Hastyness will not lead to success. At this time, you must not act rashly. Your Highness will wait for a while. Once the situation in Guanzhong is critical, then your Majesty will not be allowed to hesitate."

Unexpectedly, Fang Luan became a bird of a feather with the cabinet.

After more than half a month, the selection of concubines has come to an end.

However, they each had their own thoughts and only considered their own interests, and no one spoke out for objections.

"Do you still remember that Zheng Mochen? Yes, it's the fortune teller we met on the Chinese Valentine's Day."

Moreover, the civil and military officials of Dayan have always been in power, so they promised the position of the Crown Princess to the Fang family, hoping that Fang Luan would give Xie Yao some help in the future.

When it comes to the present, the shape is slightly distorted.

Although the selection of concubines was held in the inner palace, there were still people who were flirting with inquiries, and those who had gained the eye of noble people.

"My Crown Prince!"

There are more than a thousand eunuchs in the palace, and they always can't control the door and reveal the movements in the palace to the outside world.

In short, that happened more than ten years ago.

His Highness Dun appointed the eldest girl from Corning's Mansion early, and His Highness the Crown Prince also seemed to choose the second girl from Marquis of Weiyuan's Mansion.

Xie Yao was very concerned about peace talks and decided to give everyone in the world a beautiful answer.

Zhang Ruogu noticed something strange and hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, I think that the peace talks involve our Dayan national system, and it is not easy to be careless. I will discuss with His Highness the Crown Prince in a while to see if there are any shortcomings. I will ask Lord Qian and Lord Lu to check it out and report it in detail with Your Majesty tomorrow."

The emperor immediately lowered his face and turned his head aside.

The emperor roared softly, pouring out his dissatisfaction.

At Corning Bo’s Mansion in Beijing, when Lin Zisu heard Xie Xi say this name, she felt very familiar and couldn’t remember who it was.

Today, I have always been very frank about the affairs of the harem. Since I ascended the throne, I have held a ceremony for selecting concubines during this period.

It was Xie Xi who gave her the answer: "I heard that my father-in-law and Zheng Mochen have a good relationship. Zheng Peiyao is the daughter of Zheng Mochen."

"hateful!"

When I heard that she was going to marry Xie Hui, I couldn't help but secretly make a pity for Zheng Peiyao.

Xie Xi mentioned this and told the relevant information he found: "I heard that Zheng Peiyao is the outer girl of Luo Wenxin, the third master of Luo Mansion. However, Luo Wenxin refused to admit it and became the Zheng girl."

Regarding the relationship between Zheng Peiyao and Luo Mansion, Lin Zisu first heard of it and asked: "The first condition for choosing a concubine in the palace is to be innocent. If the Zheng family sister had such an identity, how could she choose the palace?"

Speaking of the reason, Xie Xi smiled very happily: "The mother and mother are not concerned about choosing a concubine, and the candidates for choosing a concubine are the only ones in Tang Zhuang Concubine. Tang Zhuang Concubine and Zhang Xian Concubine have never been dealt with. Since she has such an opportunity, she naturally has to take the opportunity to disgust Zhang Xian Concubine and his son, so that they will lose face."
