Empress looks forward to falling out of favor every day

Chapter 380
She said slowly.

"It's better for the emperor to hand it over to the Ministry of Rites, so as not to be biased. In this way, whether everyone gets rewards or punishments, and how much rewards and punishments they deserve, there is a system, fair and just."

After the words fell, the Empress Dowager turned around and brought up another matter.

"Ai Jia remembers that General Xiao is not too young now, but it is because he has been far away in a remote area for the past three years, has never married a wife, and there is no one to manage the house, and there is no one to serve in the room."

"Emperor, you have to help General Xiao pay attention, and promise a good marriage to General Xiao, otherwise, the world will say that you, the emperor, have delayed General Xiao's good marriage."

Xiao Nanchen sat quietly at the side, his expression was cold and serious, but it was hard to see what he was thinking at the moment.

Moreover, this is not the first time the Queen Mother has mentioned this matter.

Ye Mohan glanced at Xiao Nanchen, and seemed to think that this matter was not a small one, so he agreed, "Zhen will keep an eye on it for him."

"It just so happens that Ai's family is here, Emperor, Ai's family took a serious look today. The eldest daughter of Dong Pin, the servant of the household department, is dignified and virtuous, and she is also beautiful. She is not bad.

Also, the second daughter of the Duke of Yan just reached the age of Ji this year, and she looks pretty. Not long ago, the Duke of Yan wanted to send his daughter to the palace to serve the emperor. The emperor liked to go to Concubine Xiao recently, and he didn't think about accepting a concubine. Why don't he give this good thing to General Xiao. "

Ye Mohan sat on the chair, looking like he was thinking about which woman to choose for Xiao Nanchen.

Xiao Nanchen opened his eyes slightly, got up, lifted his robe and knelt down.

"Your Majesty, Empress Dowager, I only want to protect my family and country, and I have no intention of caring about the love of my children. Please, Your Majesty, Empress Dowager, take it back."

The Empress Dowager looked at Xiao Nanchen, her eyes darkened, and said with a smile: "General Xiao is loyal after all, but this marriage can't be delayed. If you don't give me a marriage, you won't need it. The Ai family will give you two maids, and you can take them back. You don't have to worry about them. They have been trained and know how to serve men best. It's not a big deal. You can just take them back as a housekeeper."

Xiao Nanchen was about to open his mouth to refuse, when he raised his head, he saw the warning from the Queen Mother's gentle eyes.

It was she who proposed to marry him.

Xiao Nanchen refused, so she took a step back and gave him a housemaid. If Xiao Nanchen also refused, then she would not give her face.

Xiao Nanchen lowered his eyes, he knew the reason behind it.

Now that he has meritorious service, he must be cautious in his actions, otherwise the noble master above will think that he has meritorious deeds and will not take him seriously.

"My minister complies with the order, thank you Your Majesty, the empress dowager for your kindness!"

Xiao Nanchen backed away.

In this room, only the Queen Mother and Ye Mohan were left.

The queen mother glanced at the mung bean soup in front of Ye Mohan's table. Ye Mohan hadn't even touched a sip of this mung bean soup since just now.

Ye Mohan raised his eyes and looked over coldly.

"Has the mother-in-law finished singing this play of harmony between mother and child? Have you enjoyed it? Are you still satisfied?"

The queen mother curled her lips into a smile, "Ai's heart is full of dissatisfaction, and it depends on what outsiders say. This mung bean soup was your favorite drink when you were young. Why didn't you take a sip today?"

Ye Mohan heard the words, his eyes became colder, "Oh, I really liked drinking when I was young, but I liked it at that time, but my mother didn't give it to me. Now I don't like it, and my mother hastily brought it over. It's a bit ridiculous."

There were no outsiders here, and the queen mother stopped carrying it. After hearing Ye Mohan's cold and sarcastic words, her face completely sank, she snorted coldly and walked outside.

Mother Feng saw that the Queen Mother came out, so she hurriedly stepped forward to support her.

Looking at the Empress Dowager's face, Nanny Feng knew that the Empress Dowager and His Majesty must be having an unpleasant fight again, so she couldn't help but look ugly.

He thought to himself that Ye Mohan really forgot his roots, and he must not forget that if there was no queen mother back then, how could he get the throne today!
Eunuch Li saw the Empress Dowager coming out, and hurried in to serve her.

Eunuch Li heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Ye Mohan lowering his head and busy approving the memorial.

If it had been in the past, His Majesty would have wiped it all out by now.

"Your Majesty... the servant will make you a cup of hot tea?"

"Ah."

Ye Mohan responded, and suddenly glanced at the mung bean soup from the corner of the eye, and said coldly, "Take it out and pour it out."

Eunuch Li paused, turned around, and immediately understood what Ye Mohan was referring to, turned around and took down the bowl of mung bean soup on the table.

When Xiao Nanchen walked out, his expression was not very good-looking, and he was about to leave the palace gate, when he saw the two maids waiting at the palace gate, his expression was completely ugly to the extreme.

The two maids were dressed as first-class maids, when Xiao Nanchen looked over, they also saw Xiao Nanchen, and lowered their heads shyly.

When Xiao Nanchen approached, the two of them stepped forward together and bowed respectfully.

"Father..."

Xiao Nanchen glanced at them, "Name?"

The two maids looked at each other and said.

"Master, my slave name is Qingyu."

"Master, my slave name is Hongyu."

When the two servant girls spoke, their tone was soft and flattering, obviously they were servant girls who had been trained.

And look at this appearance.

Xiao Nanchen thought sarcastically, the Empress Dowager was really kind to him.

Because there were two extra girls temporarily, Xiao Nanchen asked the boy to prepare a carriage, and he drove the horse back first.

The two maids were taken back and placed in Xiao Nanchen's courtyard, and the housekeeper cleaned up two empty rooms for them.

Ziyun, on the other hand, didn't react.

Originally, there were only her and the general living in this courtyard, but now there were two more delicate girls, and she felt helpless and uncomfortable for a moment.

Qingyu and Hongyu looked at the courtyard here, their eyes fell on Ziyun who was standing aside, and they couldn't help but evoked a smug smile.

They knew about Ziyun, and knew that Xiao Nanchen was always served by Ziyun, but Ziyun had no identity.

After all, they were given to Xiao Nanchen by the Empress Dowager herself, and now she feels that she is much more noble than the brothel girl in front of her.

Hongyu walked forward with Qingyu, shouting: "Let me serve you tonight, sister, are you not allowed to rob me?"

Qingyu turned her head and glared at her coquettishly, "Whether to grab or not, it's up to you where I'm going, we're all on our own!"

Ziyun listened to their words, and didn't avoid them, yelling one after another.

Ziyun grabbed the hem of the clothes with her hands, feeling more and more uncomfortable.

—

The fact that Xiao Nanchen was almost given a marriage was spread into the harem in a blink of an eye.

This woman in the harem is living a boring life. Apart from being jealous, she usually watches the excitement and listens to gossip.

There was a little disturbance in this palace, and it could quickly spread to the harem, and it was discussed a lot.
