The world

7, Holy will

After a dance, Yuan Jia saluted the empress dowager and retreated. When she withdrew, she secretly looked around. In the eyes of the emperor and the prince and others, she saw ** naked possessiveness. In the eyes of several princes, she saw obsession and desire. Only in the eyes of the seventh princes, it was the kind of appreciation and praise that moved her. In the eyes of the concubines, in addition to surprise, there is even a faint sense of jealousy and even a faint sense of crisis. As for his father's eyes, there is nothing but pride.

Changing into clothes and returning to the hall again, everyone's look basically returned to normal, but the emperor and the crown prince looked at her with ambiguity.

About the prince, Yuan Jia didn't know much about him, but Cheng Zhihang was upset when he saw the prince staring at his beloved daughter.

In Cheng Zhihang's view, his daughter will not be small no matter what, even if the other party is the prince, unless the prince can divorce or reduce the current crown princess to a side concubine, and then treat her in the position of the main room. However, the crown princess was selected by the emperor himself, and there was an emperor's imperial edict to marry. If the prince dares to let the crown princess go to court without authorization, then his crown prince will also do it.

Therefore, in choosing a son-in-law for his beloved daughter, Cheng Zhihang first excluded the prince and several married princes. In his opinion, the only prince who is most suitable for his beloved daughter is the fifth prince. The mother of the sixth prince is just Yunrong, and she is a famous medicine jar, which is impossible. Although the seventh prince is both good in literature and martial arts, has good looks and morals, and is raised by a virtuous concubine, his biological mother is a daughter who doesn't even have a grade. It can't be compared with other princes at all. In the heart of Cheng Zhihang, who valued the blood of the concubine, he has long been excluded. As for the eighth prince of the same age as his daughter, because his birth is not very high, and his qualifications are mediocre, he is not considered at all.

The only comfort that makes him feel that although the fifth prince is 18 years old, he has already reached the age of marriage. Even if the fifth prince has never stopped, the formal original wife has never been married. Of course, this is the credit of the emperor. The prince can't marry casually. It's only when the emperor appoints the main room to get married. The emperor didn't know why he didn't designate a candidate for the main room for the fifth prince, so that the fifth prince only had two concubines so far, and the original configuration was empty. In Cheng Yuhang's view, this is the position reserved by the emperor for his daughter. As long as his daughter grows up, she can be rightly promised to the fifth prince.

It's not only Cheng Yuhang who thinks so, but also Shufei. In order to marry her son, she asked the emperor a lot, but the emperor didn't marry the fifth prince for a long time, which made her complain a lot. Seeing such an excellent Qinrou Junjun. Looking back on the emperor's promise to marry her in person, she took it for granted that the emperor kept the position of the fifth prince to wait for Qinrou Junjun to grow up.

In fact, in the emperor's heart, he did have this idea, but when he saw Cheng Yuanjia again half a month ago, he had completely overturned this idea.

Cheng Yuanjia's beauty is the only one he has seen in his life. Even if she is only twelve years old at this moment and has not yet reached the age of marriage, there are so many beautiful women in the harem that no one can be compared with her in appearance. Even the mother of the seventh princes, Xue Cai, who was called the first beauty in the harem by him, is not comparable to her.

Even if Cheng Yuanjia is the daughter of the emperor's cousin according to the generation, this still can't stop the emperor's coveting for her. Even if he knew that the empress dome would interfere, he couldn't help turning his head.

A family banquet, under the seemingly filial and happy situation of father and son, came to a successful end. The emperor and others with their own heart said goodbye to the empress dowager and returned to their palace. Cheng Yuhang also took Yuan Jia to say goodbye to the empress dowager.

The Empress Dowager took Yuanjia's hand and said, "Yuanjia, you have to go to the palace to see your aunt often. These days, your aunt has never been so happy with you."

Cheng Yuanjia hugged the empress dowager affectionately and said, "Rongjia is also reluctant to give up her aunt. Fortunately, Yuanjia will live in the capital for a few years, and she also has a palace token given by her aunt. When she misses her aunt, she can go to the palace at any time to talk to her aunt. When does her aunt want to drink the tea made by Yuanjia, she can also send someone to the modest palace. Pick up Yuanjia and accompany him to the palace.

"You are the girl who knows grandma's thoughts best." The empress dowager smiled and came to her niece's ear and said, "Don't worry about the emperor's thoughts on you. Your aunt won't let you become his plaything, even if he makes you queen."

Yuan Jia nodded slightly and whispered, "If my aunt is careful, please pay attention to the seventh prince for me. I always feel that he is a little special, as if there is something hidden in my heart."

The empress dowager was stunned, and then nodded and said, "Okay, I will pay attention to it. Girl, you won't like him, will you? Don't say I didn't remind you, he is the youngest of all princes.

Yuan Jia smiled at the empress dowager and did not explain. Instead, he said goodbye to the empress dowager with his father and went out of the palace.

The next day, a news broke out in the palace that the emperor finally married the fifth prince. The other party was not Yuanjia, which Cheng Yuhang and Shufei thought in their hearts, but the direct granddaughter of Sun Min, a university scholar, Miss Sun Jia, who is now 16 years old.

Later, Yuanjia learned from the empress dowager that the day after the birthday banquet, Shufei intercepted the emperor who returned to the palace in the early morning. She insisted that the emperor marry the fifth prince, and claimed that although Yuanjia Junjun was not as good as him, there was also a precedent for a ten-year-old marriage in the previous dynasty. She asked the emperor to marry Cheng Yuanjia, the king of Qinrou County, to the fifth prince. As a result, the emperor was furious, scolded her for making her own decision, and quickly chose a marriage for the fifth prince, and issued a decree of marriage in less than an hour.

Concubine Shu originally wanted to marry Cheng Yuanjia according to her son's wishes, and she thought that the emperor also meant the same, so she confidently asked the emperor to make an order. Unexpectedly, she was the result, and there was nothing she could do in the face of her son's anger.

Because of the emperor's urging, the fifth prince's wedding was held two months later. Yuanjia did not drink his wedding wine, nor did he bother to understand his thoughts. In Cheng Yuanjia's opinion, the fifth prince is just a playboy, far less than the memory brought to her by the seventh prince.

I saw the seventh prince again in Prince Qian's mansion two months after the fifth prince got married.

The reason why the seventh prince came to Qian's mansion was very simple, because Wei Qitong, the eldest grandson of Prince Qian, got married, and he came to watch the ceremony on behalf of his adoptive mother and virtuous concubine. Moreover, the seventh prince, Wei Qitong and Wei Qike, are both educated in the imperial prison. From the perspective of blood relationship, they are cousins who are close relatives and good friends in private. Therefore, Wei Qitong got married, and the seventh prince had to attend.

Prince Qian's mansion held a happy event. Of course, there were many guests. Prince Qian and his two sons were so busy that even their son-in-law Cheng Yuhang was dragged by them to help. No one cared about the whereabouts of these half-and-sized children. Wei Qike turned his eyes and took the seventh prince Wei Yihao straight to Yuanjia's residence. I came from the small courtyard.

The noise of the front yard can't be transmitted to Cheng Yuanjia's yard, not to mention that it is a little far away. The sound insulation boundary she secretly arranged alone can make the courtyard enjoy real quiet in the downtown.

As soon as Wei Yihao stepped into the courtyard, he felt the unique Jingyi in front of him. A breath that could make the most manic heart calm down instantly wrapped in the flowing water of the bridge. What shocked him more was that his heart, which had calmed down for a long time, actually had an incomparable desire to rise. The last time I had this feeling was that at the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet, when he saw Qinrou Junjun, he almost broke his calm mood that he had always been proud of. The beautiful girl who sat next to the empress dowager smiled, sat next to him and nodded slightly to him, dancing at the birthday banquet, which actually made him deeply infatuated. However, he knew that his birth was too low. Although he was a prince, he was still not qualified to marry her, so he could only hide this kind of love in his heart.
