The princess is soft! The sick villain is crazy

Chapter 74 Marriage

Author: Raising cats every year

Elder Shuyi left like this.

The queen mother leaned against the beauty couch, clutching the handrail with one hand, muttering to herself: "He will not come again..."

It has been forty years, and she should have let go of these things, but when she saw Xue Tingzhao appear in front of her, the Empress Dowager still couldn't control her emotions.

It turned out that they hadn't let go.

But they are all old. The young man who once looked bright and majestic, now he is covered with fine lines, with spots of years full of years, and his body is hunched over, and he can no longer see his youthful appearance.

And she is also old, with gray hair, half of her body buried in the loess, and no longer has the bright beauty of a girl.

If you miss it, you miss it.

"Grandma..."

Shu Yao called out softly, and the queen mother suddenly came back to her senses and smiled like a self-deprecatingly, "Sorry, it's because the Ai family is sentimental."

She raised her head, looked at Shu Yao with soft and complicated eyes, and waved to her, "Good child, come to my grandmother's side."

A girl who was once so big had already grown up and was graceful. Recently, the Queen Mother received many greetings from noble ladies, who wanted to bring her children into the palace to express condolences to the Queen Mother. What was her idea? How could she not understand?

Shu Yao sat down next to the Empress Dowager, and Xuetuan meowed in Shu Yao's arms. The Empress Dowager touched Xuetuan's soft little head, "Yaoyao, have you ever thought about marrying a husband? If you have someone you like, the Ai family will ask the emperor to give you a marriage."

In the past, they all agreed that Shu Yao and Xie Yanzhou were a couple, and few people asked Shu Yao this question. This was the first time that the empress dowager mentioned marriage with Shu Yao.

Shu Yao was also stunned.

Who do you want to marry?

She should have answered with confidence, "I don't want to get married", but the first moment when the empress dowager asked her this question, Shu Yao's mind actually passed through Li Mingji's face.

Shu Yao was rarely at a loss: "I..."

The Empress Dowager couldn't see her strange child when she raised her. She was a little surprised but not surprised. She changed her question:

"Yaoyao might as well talk to the Ai family, what kind of husband do you like?"

Shu Yao kneaded the fluffy and soft fur of the snow, causing the latter to gently pat her wrist with her tail. She frowned and thought carefully for a moment, "Be gentle and considerate, and be patient in doing things."

Qin Yanghou has a bad temper and will get angry after a few words. He tries his best to maintain his authority as his father. Shu Yao hates such men the most.

"The backyard must be clean," Shu Yao said, "I am not allowed to take a concubine."

It is best if the identity is lower than her - she doesn't want to listen to her husband's shouting every day. After all, her future husband must be able to help her dress and wash, dress up, and be self-aware of her identity.

Shu Yao was raised by Emperor Yong and the Empress Dowager since she was a child. Emperor Yong has always taught her that she could not treat herself badly at any time. Therefore, she asked her to marry a stranger, take care of her husband and children, and give birth to children for him. Shu Yao would not do this.

The Empress Dowager was amused by Shu Yao's speech, but nodded in agreement: "Yaoyao is right."

The girl always has beautiful fantasies about marriage and the future husband. When she thinks of those past events, the queen mother's eyes darkened and a hint of hatred flashed across.

"Yuanyuan hasn't been engaged yet. Grandma, don't worry about my marriage," Shu Yao put down the cat and hugged the queen mother's arm. "Grandma, if I don't get married, I'll be with you and my uncle."

"Shufei will worry about Ayuan's marriage. The Ai family is worried that her health will not be successful and she will not get married."

What's more, Shu Yao's mother...

The Queen Mother closed her eyes, and guilt and regret intertwined in her eyes.

"Grandma, I don't allow you to say such despicable words!" Shu Yao stared straight, "Elder Shu Yi said that you don't need to apply a needle to you in the future, you will definitely live a hundred years old!"

But she inevitably remembered her dream.

She died of this poison in her dream. At that time, Zhang Sheng had already been killed by the disciples of the Dingmaster. Who would still harm her?

"The Ai family knows."

The Empress Dowager couldn't help but laugh and gently touched Shu Yao's head, "You are the one who is most worried about in the Ai family. The Ai family will definitely watch us get married beautifully."

"Empress, empress!"

The grandparents and grandsons said a few words, and the eunuch outside the door hurried in, "See the Empress Dowager, meet the Princess. Empress, and the Marquis of Qin Yang ask for a meeting!"

...

Outside the palace of Yanshou.

Qin Yanghou looked coldly at Li Mingji in front of the guards.

"Ten thousand taels of silver? Li Mingji, you are so brave! You can buy the original works of painters of the previous dynasty at such a price. You actually spoke up and fooled Manager Pan to buy your paintings at a high price. This is a fraud!"

Qin Yanghou was paid for the duty from the Hanlin Academy today. When he remembered that he needed to buy new mo in the study, he asked the carriage to turn the path of Mo Yuxuan and went to pick it up in person. When he walked into Mo Yuxuan, the shopkeeper Pan Jun suddenly knelt in front of him and asked him for help in tears.

Pan Jun is the cousin of Pan. Over the years, he has also presented the "Hanshan Map" to the Housing of Emperor Yong's birthday party. Therefore, the Hou of Qinyang asked Pan Jun to get up and ask him what was going on.

Qin Yanghou only realized that this "Hanshan Map" was purchased by Pan Jun for 10,000 taels of silver, so he had mortgaged many treasures from the store. Now it was time to get the new materials, Mo Yuxuan could not afford the spare money. Pan Jun ran around for this and borrowed them from every household.

The key to the Qinyang Hou Mansion was in the hands of Pan, and Qinyang Hou was not very clear about how much money the Hou Mansion was. The number that Pan Jun needed was far from what Qinyang Hou could do now.

After thinking for a moment, Qin Yanghou thought of Li Mingji.

This young man who was never conspicuous and started his career, but now serves as the commander of the capital Yuhou and is also trusted by Shu Yao.

He is the painter named Qingyan.

If Pan had not rescued Li Mingji, Li Mingji would not have been attracted by Shu Yao and would have risen straight. It can be said that the Qinyang Marquis Mansion had the kindness of knowing Li Mingji.

If he knew the tactfulness, the "Hanshan Map" should have been presented directly to the Qinyang Hou Mansion. However, he knew that he would not repay his kindness and slandered the Hou Mansion. How could Qinyang Hou swallow this breath?

That's a total of ten thousand taels!

Qin Yanghou immediately returned to the palace and tried to get the ten thousand taels of silver back.

Shu Yao was not good at softness and hardness. If she asked Shu Yao to argue, she would definitely favor Li Mingji. Hearing that Shu Yao was with the Empress Dowager in Yanshou Palace today, Qin Yanghou was overjoyed and went to Mo Yuxuan again and asked Pan Jun to give him the account book.

The Empress Dowager is a wise person and will not favor Shu Yao in everything like Emperor Yong. The account book clearly records Mo Yuxuan's embarrassing situation, and the Empress Dowager should also understand that Li Mingji asked for 10,000 taels of silver, which was intentional.

"The Marquis misunderstood," Li Mingji smiled warmly, his eyes dark and unconscious. "I just consigned the painting, and didn't know that the painting was sold to you."

Queen Mother: Who do your granddaughter wants to marry?

Shu Yao: (calculate with your fingers) Gentle and considerate, careful and patient, obedient...
