royal husband

When Shen Qianxue was going to attend the banquet, Shen Ningyu happened to be in Shen Qianxue Palace, so Shen Qianxue took advantage of the opportunity to bring Shen Ningyu over to accompany her, so as not to be bored.

Shen Qianxue smiled and said, "Auntie doesn't know either, but people will know when they come over later."

"Okay, Yu'er listens to aunt."

After Shen Qianxue said so, Shen Ningyu had no choice but to hold back for the time being.

Zhiqiu came in from the outside, leaned over to Gu Rushuang's ear with a normal expression and whispered, "Your Highness, just now Eunuch Yang came over to say that the emperor..."

Li Jin didn't keep everyone waiting too long, and walked in together with peace after a while.

child?

The moment Li Jin came in, the concubines, including Shen Qianxue, all had these two words in their minds, and their eyes were filled with unbelievable astonishment.

Because they all thought that the person Gu Rushuang was waiting for was the Gu family, but they never expected it to be a child they had never seen before.

What kind of tricks is Gu Rushuang playing?

Lan Yingying couldn't help frowning and said, "Your Highness, you just said that the person you are waiting for is this child?"

He is finally here.

When Ying Yuan first saw Li Jin walking over, he couldn't help but miss a beat in his heart, and then all his attention was absorbed by Li Jin.At the same time, a faint anger flashed in Yingyuan's eyes.

Who is he?It looks so good.

This was Shen Ningyu's first impression of Li Jin.

"Ah."

Gu Rushuang nodded her head, which was considered to be Lan Yingying's answer.

Li Jin calmly walked up to Gu Rushuang under everyone's scrutiny, bowed and said, "See Her Majesty the Empress, I ask Her Majesty the Empress to punish me if I come late."

Gu Rushuang shook her head, "Calm down quickly, this matter is not your fault, it's because of this Gong's reluctance, I asked you to come here even though I knew you were recovering from a serious illness."

He didn't come to see me because he was sick?

The anger in Ying Yuan's eyes disappeared instantly because of Gu Rushuang's words, leaving only a trace of worry that Ying Yuan didn't realize.

Li Jin cupped his hands and said, "It's my honor to be invited by Her Royal Highness the Queen."

"Good good."

Gu Rushuang repeatedly said yes, and asked Li Jin to sit down.

Lan Yingying is not a fuel-efficient lamp. Seeing that Gu Rushuang didn't intend to introduce Li Jin, she asked herself, "His Royal Highness, did you forget to introduce this child to us?"

Under Gu Rushuang's gesture, Zhiqiu blessed Fushen and said to Lan Yingying, "If you go back to Mrs. Jin, he is Li Jin, the eldest son of Dingbei Prince personally appointed by the emperor."

she is there?

Li Jin looked at the little girl next to Shen Qianxue calmly, and recognized that she was Shen Ningyu from /day/later.

It turns out that his name is Li Jin...uh...he...why does he keep looking at me?

Shen Ningyu turned her head shyly, not daring to meet Li Jin's gaze.

Lan Yingying opened her eyes wide, "He is that short-lived..."

Oops.

Lan Yingying realized that she accidentally said what was in her heart, she shut her mouth immediately.

"Concubine Jin."

Gu Rushuang glanced at Lan Yingying displeased.

"The concubine just said something wrong, please forgive me, Your Highness the Empress." Lan Yingying replied with a half-smile, and then shifted her gaze to Li Jin, "Your Majesty Li won't blame me, will you?"

What Lan Yingying said to Li Jin meant nothing but sincerity at all, because news of Li Jin's short life had already spread among the dignitaries in the capital, so why would Lan Yingying take the time to win over a dying man? people.

Li Jin said neither humble nor overbearing, "Miss Concubine Jin made a mistake unintentionally, how could I take it to heart?"

Lan Yingying smirked.

"I feel relieved that Li Shizi can think so."

With the end of this episode, the dust-cleaning banquet will officially begin soon.

All the people unanimously held up the cups in their hands and respected Gu Rushuang, "I wish Your Highness the Queen the joy of the Seventh Prince."

"Okay." Gu Rushuang was originally a wine-loving person who would not shirk, picked up the noble cup on the table and drank it all in one gulp, "I had such a good time today, I will tell Jin'er about that too. Bar."

After Gu Rushuang finished speaking, her eyes fell on Li Jin.

Li Jin stood up, cupped his hands and said, "His Royal Highness, please speak."

"Jin'er, I intend to let you be Yuan'er's companion, I wonder if Jin'er would you like it?" Gu Rushuang gave Li Jin the right to choose.

Shen Qianxue shrank her pupils, and reminded in a questioning tone, "His Royal Highness, you have already mentioned to the emperor about having Prince Li as a companion? The emperor also agreed?"

What kind of medicine is Gu Rushuang's gourd buying?This Li Shizi was born by Gu Rulan, he should take the initiative to avoid suspicion, why did he take the initiative to mention such a thing?

Shen Qianxue was stunned by Gu Rushuang's actions, and she couldn't figure out Gu Rushuang's plan at all.

Lan Yingying chimed in, "Yes, Your Majesty, it's a big deal for the prince to accompany you to study, you can't just make up your own mind without asking the emperor."

At the same time, the faces of the other concubines who gave birth to princes were also as dark as the bottom of a pot, but they had some scruples and did not dare to speak out like Lan Yingying and the others.

They looked down on Li Jin who would not live long, but behind Li Jin was the Dingbei Palace, and they had to guard against it.

Gu Rushuang looked at the concubines with no expression on her face, "You don't have to / worry / worry about this, I will naturally ask the emperor for permission first."

Actually.

Gu Rushuang also concealed something.

Gu Rushuang would suddenly say that it was not Gu Rushuang's original intention to ask Li Jin to be a companion, but Ying Zhengjing's intention to let Yang Shaochuan come over to pass on the message.In the end, it was Gu Rushuang's own idea to give Li Jin the right to choose.

In other words, if Li Jin is unwilling, Gu Rushuang will try his best to persuade Ying Zhengjing to give up the matter.

Li Jin saluted Gu Rushuang unhurriedly, "I am willing."

Li Jin originally planned to assist Ying Yuan, so naturally he would not refuse, but what puzzled Li Jin was how could Gu Rushuang mention this matter so much in advance in this life?

Gu Rushuang nodded, instead of continuing this topic, she asked everyone to eat more to enjoy themselves.

pity.

Because of Gu Rushuang's words just now, the concubines have long lost the mood to continue.

……

What the hell happened when Gu Rushuang asked Li Jin, who was sick, to be Ying Yuan's companion?Could it be... Gu Rushuang also wants that trash to compete for the crown prince?

After returning to her palace after the banquet, Shen Qianxue's complexion was not very good, and she kept thinking about Gu Rushuang's purpose.

Shen Ningyu's childish words broke the tranquility in the hall, "Auntie, what is the origin of that Li Jin? Why is your complexion not so good when His Royal Highness mentions him?"

"He is Li Jin, the eldest son of Prince Dingbei."

"That child is the child of King Dingbei? Why have I never seen him?"

"How old are you? You haven't seen many people in this capital, and they are older than you." Shen Qianxue tapped Shen Ningyu's nose with her finger, and smiled, "Yu'er, why did you mention him so suddenly? Could it be that you fell in love with him?"

The fathers of Shen Qianxue and Shen Ningyu were born of the same mother, so Shen Qianxue was tolerant of Shen Ningyu interrupting her thinking, and did not speak out to reprimand her.

Shen Ningyu blushed and denied, "No."

"You don't look like you don't have one." Shen Qianxue was originally teasing Shen Ningyu and talking casually, but now seeing Shen Ningyu's sudden blush, she naturally has the intention to continue teasing.

"Auntie, I'm going to find the fifth princess, so I won't tell you." Shen Ningyu knew that she couldn't tell Shen Qianxue, so she found an excuse and ran away.

The fifth princess that Shen Ningyu spoke of was Shen Qianxue's daughter Ying Xishen, who was the same age as Shen Ningyu.
