The enchanting prince and the sweet concubine

"All take their seats," Xiao Huang smiled at them, and the five of them sat at the positions designated by the maid.

After a while, an old court lady walked up to Xiao Yi and Lan Duoduo with two cups of tea, "Please ask Princess Yi to serve tea to the emperor and empress."

Lan Duoduo thought that marrying into the royal family does not need to serve tea, so she glanced at Xiao Yi, who gave her a look to show her to hurry up.She stood up from her seat, lifted the hem of her skirt, and followed the court maid carefully to walk up to Emperor Xiao step by step.

She picked up a cup of teacup, stretched the teacup in front of Emperor Xiao, bowed her body halfway and saluted, "Father, please use tea."

Xiao Huang took the teacup, slowly lifted the lid with his right hand, took a sip, handed the teacup to the maid, and smiled lovingly at her, "Hehe, she will be the daughter-in-law of our royal family from now on, come on, Father I don’t have anything for you, so I’ll give you this exquisite jade bracelet as a gift.” Lan Huang handed her a small and unique transparent white jade bracelet with both hands, and all the ministers and daughters in the hall were envious and jealous. The exquisite jade bracelet in Tianlan Temple is made of the rare white dragon and bright moon jade. The old abbot of Tianlan Temple gave it to the late emperor, and it is the only one.Moreover, when the crown prince married Gu Ruyan, Xiao Huang only gave him a pair of jadeite earrings. It seems that the folklore is true, Xiao Huang prefers the younger son, even the treatment of the younger son's princess is different.Xiao Yi was even more puzzled, why was his father willing to give her the jade bracelet from Tianlan Temple?

Lan Duoduo just thinks that this bracelet is exquisite and beautiful, and there is nothing special about it. Compared with this jade bracelet, she prefers silver, and the emperor's gift cannot be exchanged for money, and she doesn't like to wear so many jewelry.

However, don’t give away the gifts for nothing, presumably Xiao Huang is not a stingy person, and the things he gave are not bad, she took the bracelet with both hands, "Thank you, Father Huang." A childish but sweet thank you , but hurt Mu Ziqian's heart, why didn't she have this honor?She doesn't care, she will get it one day, and she will become the envied Princess Yi.

Lan Duoduo got up and took two steps, stood in front of Queen Gu, held up another teacup and bowed to her in the same gesture, "Queen Mother, please have some tea."

Empress Gu took the teacup, gently lifted the lid and took a sip, then handed the teacup to the court lady with an elegant gesture like a peony, "The things from your mother are not as expensive as those from your father. This is a butterfly." Ruyan also has a hairpin with colorful beads, hers is golden yellow, and yours is blue, it's a gift from the queen mother." Queen Gu has always been fair to everyone, as can be seen from this butterfly hairpin , she treats both Xiao Feng and Xiao Yi the same.

Lan Duoduo took the butterfly hairpin, "Thank you mother." After speaking, she got up and followed the maid back to her seat.

"In the blink of an eye, Yi'er and Feng'er both married concubines, and I was still intoxicated by Yi'er and Feng'er's childhood like a dream. It seems that time is not forgiving, and I have to admit that I am old." Xiao Huang's eyes revealed An emotion that people can't see through.

"Yeah, we should be grandparents too. It's just that Yi'er married the little princess, and I don't know when he will have a child of his own." Queen Gu frowned, worried that she might have to wait four or five years.

"Looks like it's Feng'er first!" Xiao Huang responded with a smile, Gu Ruyan lowered her head in embarrassment, Xiao Feng's expression also became uncomfortable, who knew that he and Gu Ruyan hadn't had sex yet after half a year of marriage, he said, Wait until she wants to touch her.

"Why don't you give Yi'er and Wu Ce several side concubines and concubines, and Feng'er will also choose a few. Since ancient times, men have had three wives and four concubines. Your Majesty, what do you think?" , only made her a queen, and there were no noble concubines in the harem, but as the mother of a country, she still hired many maids for Xiao Huang.Although Xiao Yi and Xiao Feng were not her own children, she herself had no children, and she treated them as her own children since she was a child. The mother of the two children passed away early, Empress Gu also felt distressed when she saw it, and she always loved Xiao Yi and Xiao Feng.

Mu Ziqian was overjoyed when she heard the queen's words, Gu Ruyan raised her head to look at Xiao Yi, and Lan Duoduo couldn't help but look at him too, this Xiao Yi is the most beautiful man in Xiao Zhanguo, and he is a prince, so there should be a bunch of beauties with thousands of dollars It's right to want to marry him, but at the age of 21, he doesn't even have a concubine. It can be seen that he is not happy to marry him.

The elder brother of the prince is also the only concubine, and the elder sister of the princess, no matter how you look at it, she is not close to the elder brother of the prince. The ancients didn’t marry their husbands and regard their husbands as their gods. Could it be that these three people have a love triangle? Never liked women.

Xiao Huang sighed, "This Yi'er just married the little princess of the Lanling Kingdom. Now Tan Yi'er marrying a concubine is not very good for outsiders, and it is too wronged for the little princess. There is also Feng'er, who has only married a concubine for half a year. We can't just make decisions for our children." Xiao Huang looked like a loving father, thinking of his children and daughter-in-law in every sentence, which made all the ministers feel sorry for them, thinking of themselves, no matter whether their children are happy or not, they will do it themselves. He made the decision for them.

"Father is right. My servants are only married to the little princess. It is not suitable to marry a concubine at this time. Empress Mother, don't worry too much about your servants." He has never liked women, so let him marry a few more to make him jealous. His peaceful days were completely broken.But she would fight, it seemed impossible, peach blossom eyes couldn't help but glanced at her.

"Father, the queen mother is right. The prince is already 21. When Duo Duo is 15 years old and Ji, the prince will be 24 to [-]. If he is old enough to have children, everyone in the world will make fun of him. Why don't you find ten girls for the prince sooner?" Twenty more concubines, so that the royal family can have offspring." Lan Duoduo wished that he could find more concubines, and if he didn't like women, they would let them annoy him to death. He married so many, maybe he might find someone he likes, Get out early too.

Everyone was stunned by her words. This princess is really different from other women. Other women wish that their husbands would better not marry concubines, so as not to steal their position and be neglected by her husband. This princess is for herself. It's really rare for a husband to stuff a lot of women, but this princess is still young, maybe it will be different when she grows up.

Xiao Yi's heart was full of bitterness, she hated him so much, she wished that he would marry other women, more than a dozen or twenty, what did she think of him, a beast?Or does she think he is old? Is he very old?But yes, she is only 12 years old, not even the cardamom age, he is already 21, when she is 15 years old, he will be even older.

Mu Ziqian rolled her eyes and made up her mind.

"Look, Your Majesty, how a little princess can think about it!" Queen Gu smiled, she has always been familiar with the general situation, she never thought that a princess from a small country would be so sensible.

"Okay, let's wait until after the envoy meeting!" Xiao Huang's voice became low, is it really good to marry a few more?If a person could have one love in his life, would he think about three wives and four concubines?The queen and all the ministers smiled and nodded when they heard this.

"Speaking of which, the envoys meeting will start in a month. In the past, I planned and organized it all by myself. I am old, and the emperors are so big in the blink of an eye. This year's envoys meeting will be organized by brothers Yier and Fenger. It must be more sensational than the previous one, and the daughters of all the ministers can also come to participate this year, but one thing, prepare your talents." Xiao Huang has a lot of meaning, what is Xiao Huang planning, so The important four-year envoys meeting will be jointly organized by the Crown Prince and Prince Yi. It is well known that the two secretly fight, and the daughter of the minister in previous years is not qualified to participate at all. It is really hard to guess the emperor's mind.

Xiao Yi and Xiao Feng looked at each other, each thoughtful, "Yes, I will definitely not disappoint my father." Xiao Yi and Xiao Feng spoke in unison, and smiled at each other after speaking.
