Chapter 149 First World 4
Maybe it's because he gave birth to a son and the emperor returned safely. Therefore, the queen's attitude towards Xuancao softened again. Looking at the queen, Xuancao couldn't get close to her. But the little nephew looks very nice, white and fat, like a small steamed bun.
She likes her little nephew very much, but she doesn't like the queen's sister-in-law, so she is very entangled every time she goes there.
Time passed quickly, and she turned 17 years old in a blink of an eye, and it was time to get married. She didn't know what her future would be like, and she was a little afraid out of thin air. The elder brother looked at her and promised with a smile: "Don't worry, I will definitely let our eldest princess marry the best person in the world."
After listening to her brother's words, although Xuancao said she was happy, she also didn't believe it. Where are there so many good people in the world who can marry...
When the queen heard that Xuancao was going to choose a son-in-law, she was also very interested and came to Xuancao twice. Looking at the queen's eyes when she looked at herself, Xuancao didn't know why, but there was always a creepy feeling. It's like something to be sold. As long as the price offered by others is enough, she will be sold very much.
Maybe it's absurd to say that such an idea is very absurd, but she did see that look in the eyes of the queen. So she doesn't like the queen more and more, although she gave birth to a lovely little nephew.
Later, the emperor said that he would choose a son-in-law openly. Choose a good husband for her. Princes and nobles from many surrounding countries came here just to participate in the selection of son-in-law this time. Xuancao felt very strange, because she didn't think she was so outstanding that it would attract so many people. She thought that many people must not come for themselves.
But she still acquiesced in her brother's behavior. Whether her brother really found a son-in-law for herself, or used this son-in-law to do anything else, she didn't care, because that person was her brother.
When attending the son-in-law selection meeting, the Empress chose several people to come and dress her up, saying that she now represents the face of the whole country, so she can't be like before. She dressed up and looked at the group of strangers looking at herself. He lowered his head slightly and looked a little shy.
Looking at her like that, the people below whispered there, as if they were discussing something. Will one of these people be their future husband? She thought that she wanted to look up again, but she didn't have the courage.
"Now, the eldest princess of our country is 17 years old, so she wants to choose a husband who is talented in literature and martial arts. Everyone here, I don't know how your martial arts skills are!" The emperor said with a smile, and his voice was very soft. Hearing her brother's voice, Xuancao turned her head slightly and glanced at him. When he first met his brother, he was only six years old. He didn't grow tall and his face, and he looked like a steamed bun. Today. My brother has been the emperor for many years, and my father has unconsciously left for so long.
Thinking of this, Xuancao was a little in a trance.
At this time, she heard the voice of the queen next to her: "You speak."
Xuancao glanced at the queen beside her with some confusion and subconsciously evoked a smile. The people below spoke more and more. She looked at the people below blankly, thought about it, and then said, "Thank you for coming to my son-in-law selection meeting."
She finished speaking, and the person below immediately made a loud noise. After waiting for the man to speak, Xuancao stood up and looked at everyone below: "I don't care about your literary talent or martial arts, but my husband is expected to protect our country from foreign enemies, at least while I'm alive!"
It seemed that Xuancao would say this, and the emperor was stunned. He frowned slightly and scolded in a low voice, "Xuncao, what are you talking about?" Xuancao looked at her brother and smiled: "When my mother left, she told me that since I have enjoyed the glory of being a princess, I must bear the obligations of the princess."
The emperor didn't expect that his mother would say this to Xuancao, and he was stunned. At this time, it was like a drop of cold water entering the oil pan and began to boil. Although Xuancao feels that her appearance may not be enough to captify the country. But she believes that there will always be countries willing to alliate with them. Although the alliance is a very unreliable thing, as long as she or she wants to come to the alliance, she can succeed. She thought and looked at the people below.
Maybe it was because she spoke amazingly, so her brother did not directly triumph on this day, but let them go back and wait for the news. Those people also have to go back to discuss with the forces behind them and watch them disperse.
The brother looked at her directly and asked, "Why don't I know when my sister had such confidence in her appearance!"
Xucao looked at the brother in front of her, hesitated, and then said, "Brother, I know, even if someone agrees. It's not for me, but for the two countries to form an alliance. And I'm just a bargaining chip. However, I am willing to do such a chip. After all, I don't know what my future husband will look like. I can't directly choose my destiny among so many people at once. Therefore, I would rather manipulate my marriage better.
"How can you think so!" My brother was a little hateful and gritted his teeth and looked at the Xuancao in front of him.
At this time, the queen smiled and said, "Isn't it good for my sister to think so? In this way, it can at least protect the peace of our country for a few years, and your majesty doesn't need to go on an expedition for this, and I don't have to worry about your majesty's comfort outside!"
"Pa..." Xuancao looked at her brother, who slapped the queen directly, and his eyes were cold.
"I chose you as the queen precisely because I heard about you in the boudoir. Say that you are smooth and virtuous, but looking at what you look like now, you seem to understand more and more how to write these words. You know, I can let you be the queen, and naturally I can make you nothing!"
The queen didn't seem to expect that her brother would hit her, and she was stunned there. Looking at the queen like this, the emperor sneered and said, "Remember that you will never interrupt when our family speaks!"
"Brother, anyway, she is my sister-in-law!" Xuancao went over and grabbed her brother's hand. She didn't want her brother to treat her sister-in-law like this.
Seeing her like that, his brother's face softened a little. He looked at her and said softly, "You know, I was going to ask you to recruit a son-in-law. Go straight to a son-in-law, and you don't have to leave me in the future. But if you say so now, you can only get married!"
Xuancao didn't expect that her brother would have this idea. She hesitated and then said with a smile, "Brother, you have to believe in Xuancao. Xuancao will live a good life no matter where you are. Brother, you have to promise Xuancao not to treat your sister-in-law like this again. As she spoke, she glanced at the queen next to her, but found the queen's vicious eyes. The queen looked at her fiercely, as if she wanted to eat her at any time. Seeing the queen's appearance, Xuancao was subconsciously stunned and looked at her brother again.
The elder brother sighed and glanced at the queen. The queen's face was already docile at this time. She saluted Xuancao and said, "I was indeed wrong just now. Please forgive the eldest princess."
"How can it be? How can it be?" Xuancao laughed twice and didn't know what to say.
......
Maybe it's because recruiting a son-in-law is different from getting married, so the candidates have also begun to change. At first, they were just the kings and grandchildren of some neighboring countries, but later they were basically the heirs of neighboring countries. Perhaps, this is an alliance. The alliance has to pay relative chips, and those heirs are their sincerity.
The heirs of each country naturally look good. After all, no one will bet on the future of their own country. Looking at those people, my brother's eyebrows were always frowned. Later, my brother chose a prince of the Shang Kingdom, named Zhao Yue.
