Soon after the prince returned to Beijing, he got engaged.

According to the customs at this time, the prince is only engaged now, which is considered very late.Because the prince was not married, before going to sea, some ministers used this as a reason to persuade the emperor not to let the prince leave Beijing.However, the emperor still let the prince accompany him.

At the time of the engagement, the prince could not see any joy, but looked a little listless.

Back in the capital together, Su Yi, who didn't plan to go out for the time being, wanted to laugh at the appearance of his younger brother Mu Ai, who knew that the prince didn't look shy at all, but seemed to be in a bad mood, which made Su Yi a little worried.

The current princess is the future queen.Although Su Yi doesn't expect his younger brother and his future sister-in-law to be more affectionate as husband and wife, just like his own father and mother, although there are many misunderstandings, they get along well now, which is not bad.At least you can't look at each other and hate each other, right?

Could it be that the candidate for the crown princess did not make my younger brother like it?

However, with the style of the emperor's father and the empress's wife, although the candidates have almost been decided, they should also let the prince's brother see which one is more suitable for him.Now that Yu Chao's rule is stable, there is no need to use the status of the princess to win over anything.The prince's younger brother can choose one of the suitable candidates that he likes.

No matter what, you shouldn't be depressed.

Su Yi is in trouble, of course he is looking for Mu Yan and Ding Dong.Although Mu Yan was not interested in the prince's feelings at all, as a courtier, it seemed that he shouldn't interfere in this matter, but now he is actually a member of the royal family, since Su Yi was worried, he went to ask.

Mu Yan was also straightforward, he went directly to the prince and asked him why he was depressed, saying that Su Yi was worried about him.

The corner of the prince's mouth twitched: "Brother is really worried? Is it because you are meddlesome?"

Mu Yan sneered: "Why do I care about your marriage? Besides happiness, who else would worry so much about you?"

The prince's expression softened, and said: "Yes, only the eldest brother will notice this."

The prince thought for a while, and said: "Actually, it's nothing, but it's a bit depressing to think of living with many people I don't know in the future."

Mu Yan had no choice but to say, "That's what you chose."

The prince said: "I did choose the one who is the most pleasing to the eye, but it is also a stranger."

Although Mu Yan loves freely, most people in this world want to get acquainted after they get married. It's really hard for others to understand the prince's mood.After all, everyone does it.

"We'll get to know each other in the future." Mu Yan could only comfort him in this way, "Since you're already engaged, you can exchange letters. There's still more than half a year to get married, so you should get to know each other by now."

The prince frowned and said, "What should I tell her? I don't know what women like to talk about."

"You talk about what you like, just be friends, don't care about her gender." Mu Yan said, "The crown princess chosen for you by your majesty and empress must be a knowledgeable person who can get along with you."

The prince thought the same thing, to become the mother of a country, you must have two brushes, right?So he decided to write a letter to the future princess, to get acquainted with her in private.

Nowadays, the defense between men and women is not serious. For men and women who are engaged, not to mention exchanging letters, if they are led by the parents of both parties, it is okay to have secret gatherings.It's just that the status of the crown princess is a little different, which makes people a little bit scruples.

But if the prince is willing to write a letter to the princess, it will be too late for the princess to be happy.The prince is willing to exchange feelings with their daughter, and if they have some kind of true love after they get married, their daughter will suffer less.

If you marry someone else, you can still take care of your family. If you become a princess, you need your daughter to work hard on her own.

After Su Yi heard about it from Mu Yan, he understood his younger brother very well: "Jun Le was withdrawn since he was a child, and he is much better now, but he must feel uncomfortable if he suddenly wants to accept a stranger to spend time with him day and night. It will be fine once you get to know him , anyway, he chose it himself, so he must like it somewhat."

Even if you just like the other person's face, with a certain amount of goodwill, the goodwill can expand.I just hope that the princess's conversation is also the type he likes.

But Su Yi didn't know that the prince had concealed this from him.

It is one thing to feel that the Crown Princess is a stranger, and it is difficult to accept it. More importantly, the Crown Prince is somewhat displeased with the Crown Princess' natal family.

As the crown prince, he should have been engaged long ago.It's just because he has been "confused" for five years that the aristocratic family is unwilling to let their daughter marry a "fool".

But that is because the prince is not too old, and the empress is not in a hurry to show him the princess.And the emperor was hesitating at that time whether to abolish the prince.If the prince is abolished, naturally there is no need to rush to find a concubine for the prince, so as not to become enemies instead of getting married.The Yu Dynasty has just been established, so it can't offend these aristocratic families.

Later, when Su Yi arrived in the capital, the prince was "sober", and the queen began to pay attention to the candidate for the prince's concubine.

The queen was unwilling to choose a woman whose natal family was too powerful for the prince.Although the queen was not from a noble family, she was also from a scholarly family. There were many celebrities in the family, and many of the handkerchiefs she handed were women from the noble family.The queen knew that the women of the aristocratic family were influenced by the family, and the family was the first in everything. Most of the time, the husband's family was just a means to help the mother's family.

If the queen has a daughter to marry, she may feel that there is nothing wrong with it.But if she were to marry a daughter-in-law, she would naturally not like it.

At that time, the queen chose the daughter of this family, but it was not this one, but the eldest daughter of this family.Now the concubine is five years younger than the prince, and the woman whom the empress favored was already married.

The queen just wants to see when the prince will get married, which needs to be decided by the emperor.

At that time, the emperor was still thinking about how to abduct the eldest son back to inherit the throne, and he didn't care about this matter.Although this woman is also a daughter of an aristocratic family, her family is not a big aristocratic family, but a scholarly family like the queen. Because of the darkness of the late Han Dynasty, she has been studying behind closed doors and has not been an official.

After the Yu Dynasty was established, the emperor issued an order to seek talents, and this family entered the court as an official.Therefore, her name is enough, and her daughter should be well-bred, and her influence in the court is not obvious. If the prince does not need the help of his wife and family, the status of this daughter is indeed suitable.

Excluding Su Yi, the emperor is the only son, and the position of prince does not need the support of his wife and family, and it is also suitable for the queen to choose this.

And if the emperor wants to replace Su Yi as the crown prince, it would not be considered a disgrace for that woman to be the crown princess.

So the emperor acquiesced, and asked the queen to make a statement first.

The queen would not say that she was going to choose a concubine for her son, but she only mentioned it jokingly when she asked the family to have a drink, who knew that the son not only drank too much, but also that the aristocratic family in Beijing didn't have much respect for the royal family at that time. , he laughed at the foolish prince, saying that it would be really miserable if someone married the prince.The man also mentioned the names of some women, those women were all from aristocratic families, some of them were from big aristocratic families, but they were either ugly in appearance or poor in moral character.

The man said with a smile: "Anyway, I just want to marry the prince an arm. Isn't this just right?"

From the perspective of others, in fact, what that person said is not bad.If the crown prince is really a fool, it would be meaningless to marry a good or bad one.As long as you choose a big family, tie that family firmly to the prince's boat, and support the prince's ascension to the throne.

The queen was a little annoyed, but there was nothing she could do.Who made his son foolish all the time? Although he is sober now, not many people know that it is normal for a family not to want to marry their daughter to a foolish person.

The queen even admired this person a little bit, although she was a little outspoken, but even if her son is stupid, he is still a prince, and his family is not a prominent family. As long as there is a crown prince, the influence of the family will be greatly improved. Xiao Shijia won't be moved.

Of course, although it is acceptable intellectually, the biggest emotion in the queen's heart is still anger.She knew that this matter could not be rushed, anyway, her son was already awake, so let's take it slowly.The matter was shelved.

However, the queen still used this matter to complain to the prince, saying that the prince has been pretending to be stupid, and now he is looked down upon by others.

The prince didn't care much about this in his heart.His whole heart was on Su Yi.

Afterwards, the prince's talent and benevolence became more and more famous, and the emperor and empress were not in a hurry, and decided to choose a prince with all four corners.Then there were frequent major events in the court, and the aristocratic family changed very quickly, and the emperor and empress were even less anxious.If you choose one today, tomorrow you will find out what's wrong with that family, and the whole family will be fucked, wouldn't that be a joke?

Afterwards, the queen carefully selected more than a dozen young women, and did not show the prince's family status, but only asked the prince to choose one he liked based on appearance and behavior. Who knew that the prince's choice happened to be that woman.

After so many years, since the empress has included this family as a backup candidate for the princess, naturally that incident did not leave her with any grudges.But although the crown prince doesn't show it on the surface, he actually has a very good memory.The prince is not as gentle as outsiders seem, he is not big-minded, so it will be blocked.

But he didn't dare to tell Su Yi about this.He knew Su Yi well, and after hearing this, Su Yi would definitely feel that he was narrow-minded and that the family did nothing wrong back then.

The family didn't say it publicly, but they just joked with friends while drinking privately.Who knew that friend was the queen's "spies"?

The prince was "stupid" back then, and many people watched his jokes behind his back.In other words, among the officials of the aristocratic family, there was no one who did not mention his stupidity as a casual chat.

If he wants to get angry one by one, he has to record all the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty.

What's more, that family's moral character is indeed good. If they are happy to send their daughter up on the premise of knowing that the prince is stupid, this character should make people think twice.

Storybooks in the world always like to write about women's family dislike the poor and love the rich, why you used to look down on me, but now I make you look down on me.But these are just sour words and nonsense.Which family doesn't like to marry a daughter to a better destination?When you were poor and stupid, of course he looked down on you.Now you are willing, but you have met the requirements for choosing a son-in-law at the beginning.In fact, there is no difference in essence.

If someone married a daughter, what kind of crooked melon and cracked dates just asked for marriage and then closed their eyes to marry her, then there would be a problem, right?

That family doesn't care if you are a prince or not, they just don't want their daughter to marry a fool, and they don't want to trade their daughter's life for the family's wealth.

Now even if your prince does not have the position of prince, he is still a good boy who is praised by others. Of course, the family happily sent their daughter here.

To put it bluntly, I still strive for my own strength.

The prince was trained to be dejected.

Well, although he didn't tell Su Yi about this matter, Su Yi didn't know where he knew it, or he guessed it from somewhere, and specially trained him for it.

Mu Yan and the queen smiled and said nothing, hiding their achievements and fame.

"I know, I'm being stingy about this." The prince said dejectedly, "If I have a daughter, I don't want to marry her to a fool, no matter how important that person's status is to me."

Su Yi reached out and rubbed the prince's face, "Isn't that all?"

The prince has now grown into a tough young man, but his elder brother still kneads his face like kneading dough, and he has no intention of resisting at all.

"If you think that person is not suitable for you, I will not advise you to be more affectionate with that person. After all, feelings are your own business, but because of this kind of thing, be careful that I look down on you." Su Yi half-jokingly threatened.

The prince quickly shook his head: "No, no, absolutely not, I already know I was wrong."

Su Yi laughed: "Okay. Have you written a letter with that woman? How do you feel?"

The prince said: "I really have some doubts."

The prince took out a letter, the contents of the letter were quite satisfactory, and there was nothing that should not be read by others.However, there is a chess game attached to the letter, and the person in the letter seems to want to discuss this chess game with the prince.

The prince is better at chess than Su Yi, but the two brothers, no, Yi Ran should be included, the three brothers are all stinky chess baskets.The prince is really powerless to discuss the matter of ancient chess records.But if he said no, the prince would feel ashamed.He regrets it now, why did he let the other party mention the things he likes first, and now he is cheating himself?

Su Yi smiled and said: "It's not easy, just write back and say that you are not good at this one, change to another one, and you will definitely be good at the next one."

The prince was a little embarrassed: "Is this okay?"

Isn't it embarrassing?

Su Yi said: "This is not asking you to marry a talented person, but to marry a wife who will accompany you. As your wife, she will know who you are sooner or later. If you write a letter to her in advance, it means that the later Turned early? So in your letter, you just show your original appearance. If she likes it, she likes it, and if she doesn’t like it, forget it. Anyway, you can’t change it, right? Could it be that because of this letter, you can play chess? Are you ready? So many masters in the East Palace didn’t teach you.”

The prince smiled and said: "That's right. No matter how much I have a headache, what I'm not good at is not good at."

Su Yi nodded: "Being coquettish in the letter, begging for mercy, don't be afraid of losing face. Let me tell you, you have to have a thick skin to catch up with your daughter-in-law."

Su Yi held his younger brother's shoulders and said, "How do you think I chased He Qing, the flower of the high mountains?"

The prince had a strange expression: "You chased after?"

Su Yi put gold on his face and said: "Of course, I fell in love with him at a glance back then, and then I took him down under my thick-skinned offensive, isn't it very powerful?"

The prince laughed dryly, "That's indeed very powerful."

Su Yi patted the prince on the shoulder and said, "So you have to learn from me. Remember, you must not be thin-skinned."

The prince laughed dryly: "Okay... I will learn from elder brother."

Su Yi sent the prince away, and Mu Yan smiled behind him: "You chased me, why didn't I know?"

Su Yi was taken aback, and said angrily, "You eavesdrop!"

Mu Yan said: "I just have good hearing."

Su Yi pointed angrily: "You eavesdrop!"

Mu Yan sighed: "Okay, I'll eavesdrop."

You didn't lower your voice, I could hear it even standing outside the door.

Su Yi said: "Yes, yes, I was the one who chased you back then, right?"

Mu Yan shook his head with a smile and said, "How do I remember that I fell in love with you first? You were not angry with me at first."

Su Yi said: "That's because you misremembered, actually I fell in love with you at first sight."

Su Yi lifted Mu Yan's chin with his fingers with a smirk: "You look so small, I like to admire you just by looking at it."

Mu Yan's temperament changed, his winking eyes were like silk, and he acted shyly: "Then I implore Lang Jun to take pity on me."

Su Yi laughed loudly: "Okay, okay, I will definitely take pity on you."

Then Su Yi was snatched by Mu Yan and resisted on the couch, and he didn't know who pity whom in the end.

． ． ． ． ． ． ． ． ． ． ． ． ． ． ． ． ． ． ． ． ． ． ． ． ． ． ． ． ． ．

After the prince returned to the palace, he wrote a letter according to Su Yi's "thick-skinned" strategy, expressing that he was not good at playing chess, and said shamelessly that he wanted to change.Prince Xin felt embarrassed when he saw it, so he was naturally embarrassed to show it to Su Yi, so he brought his stupid brother.

Yi Ran read the prince's letter and couldn't help but shudder: "Who taught you?"

The prince said: "Brother, he said that he pursued Mu Yan so much back then."

The corner of Yi Ran's mouth twitched: "You clearly know that he is the eldest brother He Qing is after."

The prince said: "Elder Brother said so, right over there."

Yi Ran was speechless.So what the elder brother says is right?Then you post the letter.

So the prince sent the letter excitedly.As a result, the reply sent him a big scoop of cold water.

The reply letter was not as he imagined, it was an exchange of feelings between children, but a piece of "admonition", saying that the prince can't do this, chess is one of the six arts of a gentleman, and even if he is good at this, how can he be the king of a country.In the letter, he talked about how important chess is. Playing chess can develop intelligence, play chess can exchange feelings, play chess can communicate with courtiers, all in all, prince, go and learn how to play chess.And you don't want to do it if you are not good at it, it is really blah blah blah.

The prince silently crumpled the letter into a ball, threw it away, and felt cold in his heart.

When the princess-to-be replied, she was curiously asked by her elder brother. When she returned, his family was all depressed.

"You knew that the prince is not good at chess, why did you do it on purpose?" Her father said depressedly.

The princess-to-be said solemnly: "It is precisely because I am not good at it that I need to persuade the prince. As the princess, the future mother of a country, my daughter should always persuade the prince to go on the right path."

Her father was speechless: "It's just playing chess. The prince is kind and has a virtuous reputation, but playing chess is no mean, why are you doing this?"

The princess-to-be said: "The prince should be the first of the people. If he is not the first of the people, how can we talk about governing the country?"

Her father was even more speechless.As long as the emperor knows how to choose and employ people, he doesn't need to be able to do everything, so what do he ask his ministers to do?

Her father persuaded her for a long time, but the princess-to-be felt that she was right.Her father wants to cry but has no tears.I used to think that my daughter was good in everything, very well-educated and well-behaved, completely different from those girls in the aristocratic family who behaved wildly.Now it seems that maybe the teaching is too stubborn?

I hope the prince will not be angry.

After Su Yi learned of this, he couldn't help but sigh.

This is the disadvantage of blind marriage in ancient times. Now that they are all engaged, it is too late to say these things.You can't say that you have to choose a new one because of your personality incompatibility?I only hope that after the princess's family finds out the problem, they can change the mind of the princess.The position of the crown princess is not just a position, but also the wife of the crown prince.She puts her identity before the mother of a country, and she must first remember that she and the prince are husband and wife.

Su Yi hoped that the prince's wife would not be as businesslike as his own parents. Although he was a wise king and empress in front of outsiders, he could see that the two of them were very strange and had no warmth at all.After years of hard work, he gradually felt like a relative.

The prince has suffered a lot since he was a child, and it is harder for him to accept others than others.If the crown princess does not put herself in the position of the prince's relatives, but only treats the prince as a boss, or even a student, then the crown prince feels that it is impossible to agree with the crown princess.

After learning about this, the queen also had a headache.Although she has no love for the emperor, she hopes that the prince will have someone who knows how to warm and cold, not a "virtuous wife" who is on the line when it comes to minor issues.

That's not what a real wife does.Even if she has no affection for the emperor, she still knows what she should do and what she should not do, and she will take a good attitude when admonishing her, so as not to embarrass the emperor.

She is an old and decrepit queen who has no family support. She can stand upright in the harem. Even when the prince was still "stupid", the emperor respected her. Pretty concubines, every one can shake her status, how can she do without some means?

The queen had no choice but to call the princess and her mother into the palace and beat them up.

The princess was very unconvinced.The queen doted on the prince and did not let her persuade him.If everything is followed by the crown prince and the future emperor, wouldn't he be acting as a minion for a tiger, along with those treacherous concubines in the history books?

The concubine's mother was so angry that she held her chest. The prince has the style of a wise king, so why is he acting as a minion for a tiger?Have all your books gone into the dog's stomach?Who said that being a queen has to be against the emperor?

The crown prince said, loyal words are harmful to the ear and good for deeds.

After learning about it, the queen kept sighing.

But the marriage has already been decided, what can she do?Is it possible to marry in first, and then marry a warm and cold person for your son?But the emperor and the empress do not get along, and I fear that the harem will be unstable in the future.You can't let your son worry about the affairs of the previous dynasty in front of the emperor, and also be troubled by the harem?

Just when the queen had a headache, the family of the princess-to-be passed the steps first.The princess-to-be is seriously ill, and I am afraid that she will become a princess.Their family is ashamed of the emperor's family.

Well, the ladder is handed over, so the marriage will be broken.The queen was very moved and gave the family many rewards as comfort.

That family can't help it, their daughter offended the prince and queen before they got married, how can this marriage be married?Although they don't intend to let their daughter benefit the family, they also don't want their daughter to cause trouble for the family.

So the prince got the reputation of restraining his wife again, which made it difficult to find the princess.

As a prince of a country, it is not easy to choose a concubine, which is a spectacle.
