Zhou Haochen entered the palace and arrived at the Jingqi Zhai.

Jingqi Zhai was located in the northwest corner of Kunning Palace, covering an area of more than ten acres. Compared with the magnificent palaces such as Kunning Palace and Cining Palace, it appeared more like a small family's daughter.

Of course, compared to the Forbidden City that Zhou Haochen was familiar with, the Great Yu's imperial palace was more than ten times larger overall.

Jingqi Zhai had a quiet environment, which was very consistent with Concubine Yun's image in the harem.

Low-key and not causing trouble!

And never competing for favor.

Because Concubine Yun had no cultivation to rely on, and never competed for favor, her low-key personality made her popular in the harem.

Walking into the main hall of Jingqi Zhai, Zhou Haochen saw a beautiful woman in a white palace dress, sitting on the bed.

The slender curve of her waist opened up downwards, outlining a curve like a juicy peach.

The beautiful woman had a noble and tranquil temperament, with a hint of charm in her elegance.

Just looking at her temperament, one could tell that the beautiful woman in front of him must have come from a privileged family, and her temperament could only be cultivated through a life of luxury and comfort.

The beautiful woman was holding a scroll of a painting of ladies, carefully examining it, and occasionally smiling.

"This son greets Mother Concubine."

"Chen'er, come and sit next to Mother Concubine."

Zhou Haochen sat next to Concubine Yun and glanced at the painting of ladies in Concubine Yun's hand.

The girl in the painting was captivating and a peerless beauty.

At first, Zhou Haochen thought that his mother was looking at a portrait of herself when she was young, but the girl in the painting was obviously a completely different type from Concubine Yun, and was not Concubine Yun when she was young.

Who is this girl in the painting?

Mother Concubine is looking at it so intently.

Zhou Haochen muttered to himself and asked.

"Mother Concubine, what do you want from this son?"

"What? Can't Mother Concubine look for you if there's nothing?"

"Mother Concubine only has you as a prince, and it's been more than a month, and you don't even know to come to the palace to see Mother Concubine."

Concubine Yun put down the painting of ladies, her tone resentful, her autumn eyes filled with tears, just like an abandoned woman.

Zhou Haochen smiled sheepishly and didn't dare to argue.

Since transmigrating, he was afraid of revealing his secrets, and he hadn't entered the palace to see Concubine Yun for more than a month.

So he was complained about by Concubine Yun.

"Mother Concubine, this son knows his mistake, and will definitely come to see you often in the future."

"Chen'er, remember what you said today. If you still only come to see Mother Concubine once every month or two, Mother Concubine will really be angry."

The crystal in her autumn eyes disappeared instantly, and the resentment on her face just now disappeared completely.

"Chen'er, you are sixteen this year, and you have reached the age to start a family."

Starting a family?

I'm only sixteen, and I'm being urged to marry!

Zhou Haochen didn't know how to complain.

Before transmigrating, he was urged to marry by his parents and elders. After transmigrating, he couldn't escape the fate of being urged to marry either.

"Mother Concubine, this son has had an eye disease since he was a child, I'm afraid there is no suitable match."

Zhou Haochen said seriously.

These words were not an excuse.

"Chen'er, it was impossible before, but it's different now."

"Mother Concubine has found a marriage for you, which is definitely suitable for you."

"Which family's girl is it?"

Zhou Haochen showed a curious expression, wondering who gave his mother such confidence.

"The direct daughter of the Cui family's head! Ranked third in the family."

"The Cui family? Which Cui family? Which Cui family of the Five Surnames and Seven Clans?"

"It is the Qinghe Cui family of the Five Surnames and Seven Clans. Other Cui families are not worthy of my son."

His marriage partner was actually the direct daughter of the Qinghe Cui family's head.

Zhou Haochen's heart was stirred up by a storm.

It wasn't that this partner was not ideal, but that it was too ideal.

The Five Surnames and Seven Clans are top wealthy families that have been passed down for tens of thousands of years.

The history of the Five Surnames and Seven Clans is much longer than that of the Great Yu.

Not only in the Great Yu Dynasty, but also in the Great Xia Dynasty, the Great Jin Dynasty, and even more distant eras, the Five Surnames and Seven Clans were top forces.

During the Great Xia Dynasty, the Five Surnames and Seven Clans were so arrogant that the emperor was not worthy of marrying the direct daughter of their families.

When the Great Yu was founded, the Five Surnames and Seven Clans were severely suppressed by the Great Ancestor, and their strength and prestige were no longer comparable to those during the Great Xia Dynasty.

But even so, the direct daughters of the Five Surnames and Seven Clans' heads were either internally married or married to promising princes.

He, a little transparent prince, should not be within the scope of the Five Surnames and Seven Clans' heads' direct daughters' marriage.

"Mother Concubine, given my current situation, how could I be favored by the head of the Qinghe Cui family?"

"There must be something fishy about this."

"My son is clever and saw the clues at a glance."

Concubine Yun chuckled.

"The direct daughters of the Five Surnames and Seven Clans' heads have always been arrogant. If it were other women, they would definitely look down on you, my son."

"The Cui family's Third Miss has a special situation, which makes it cheaper for you, my son."

"What's so special about her?"

The curiosity in Zhou Haochen's heart grew stronger and stronger.

The latest and most complete novels are available at 69shuba.

"This Cui family's Third Miss is in the same boat as you. She has had a leg disease since she was a child and cannot walk. She can only sit in a wheelchair for the rest of her life."

"Chen'er, don't dislike the girl for having a leg disease. Mother Concubine has seen the girl's portrait, and she is a top-notch beauty, tall and elegant, and definitely the best of the best among noble ladies."

"If she weren't unlucky and had a leg disease, it wouldn't be your turn, Chen'er."

"Moreover, because of her leg disease, the Cui family's head feels guilty towards this little daughter and is especially fond of her. The dowry is several times richer than that of other direct daughters."

"The Cui family is very sincere and has even sent the Third Miss's portrait to Mother Concubine."

Zhou Haochen suddenly understood.

It turned out that the beautiful girl in the painting was the Cui family's Third Miss.

"Chen'er, if you marry this Miss Cui, you will have the support of the Qinghe Cui family."

"In the future, after your father and mother pass away, you don't have to worry about the new emperor making things difficult for you."

"Chen'er, what do you think of this marriage?"

Concubine Yun asked softly, staring at Zhou Haochen with eager and expectant eyes.

Concubine Yun had put a lot of effort into this marriage.

It was not easy to choose a daughter-in-law who seemed almost perfect in her eyes.

Except for her difficulty in walking.

If she didn't have a leg disease, it wouldn't be her child's turn.

Zhou Haochen thought about it and nodded in agreement.

No matter how you look at it, this is a very good marriage.

Given his current situation, it is impossible for him to marry a better woman than this Miss Cui.

Unless he suddenly announced that his eye disease was cured, and showed extraordinary strength, and announced his participation in the battle for the throne.

Only in this way could he get the investment of the Five Surnames and Seven Clans.

As for the problem of leg disease.

It's not a big deal.

It's just that I'll have to work harder in bed.

I'll take on the responsibility!

"This son will leave everything to Mother Concubine to decide."

"Good!"

Concubine Yun smiled happily, her smile like the sunshine.

Perhaps because she had completed the most important thing in her heart, Concubine Yun's whole person instantly glowed, as if she was a few years younger.

Making her already well-maintained and gentle appearance seem like a girl for a moment.

"Mother Concubine will send someone to the Cui family to propose marriage and exchange birthdates."

"Chen'er, just wait to embrace the beauty."

"Qiulan, come in, this palace has some private words to say to you."

Seeing that Concubine Yun wanted to have a private conversation with Qin Qiulan, Zhou Haochen tactfully waited in the outer room.

"Your Majesty, what are your orders?"

"Qiulan, in the entire palace, this palace only trusts you."

"This palace has a very important thing to entrust to you."

"Please give your orders, Your Majesty. Even if it means climbing mountains of knives and plunging into seas of fire, Qiulan…"

Before Qin Qiulan could finish her words, she was interrupted by Concubine Yun.

"No need to climb mountains of knives or plunge into seas of fire. It's not that scary."

"You just need to climb into Chen'er's bed."
