A few days later, Xu Yuanqing went to the palace to visit Empress Xu, and heard that the election of the crown prince was over, and it was only a matter of time before the crown prince made the selection himself. It just so happened that the ladies who participated in the election today entered the palace to meet the queen. Before the time came, he first met with Empress Xu.small talk.

Empress Xu's gold hairpin and jade ring, graceful and luxurious, spoke with Xu Yuanqing with a smile on her face, "Nan Nan, which girl's birth date did your mother count for you? I asked her and she didn't say anything, which made me very curious."

Xu Yuanqing got a headache when he heard it, and felt that the national teacher was not efficient at doing things. Stretching his head and shrinking his head was a stab, why is it so unpleasant? Fortunately, everyone just knows to count the birth date, and don’t know who it is, otherwise he would be even more distressedup.

"Sister, this is not a sign of horoscope, if mother asks you to make an order, don't agree to it."

"I dare not promise you this. If a girl from a good family is suitable for you, I will naturally make it happen. But I don't know who the girl is, and I happen to be choosing the princess. It would be bad not to bump into the prince." Xu XuThe queen looked distressed, as if she was really thinking about what to do if she really bumped into her.

Xu Yuanqing really hoped to run into her, but she was still a girl anyway.

"Sister, you're overthinking. There are only a few candidates for the crown princess, and they have nothing to do with me."

"Too."

Shen Qiwen's candidate for the crown prince is actually very easy to guess. There are only a handful of women of the right age who can help him stabilize the position of the crown prince, including the Lu family, the Yang family, the Xiao family and the Xiang family.

These four families are all well-established families in the capital and all have unmarried daughters. Excluding the Xiang family and Xiang Changning, there are only three families left. According to the direction in the book, Shen Qiwen is obsessed with Lu Qiuling. He must choose the Lu family.See if Xin Zhengyuan agrees with him.

While chatting, heard that everyone was coming, and the prince was also here. Empress Xu helped Fuchai to get up, and asked Xu Yuanqing to go and see it together. If he didn't show up, he could watch it with the prince behind the screen.

Shen Qiwen had already waited behind the screen, and when he saw Xu Yuanqing, he frowned, with undisguised disgust, and he didn't question him aloud due to the occasion, so don't look elsewhere.

Empress Xu gestured to excuse her, and looked at the young girls in the seats, a look of sadness flashed in her eyes, but she returned to her dignified and generous appearance for a moment, and turned to ask the nanny, "Did the second lady of the Xiang family not come?"

"General Xiang has business to deal with and said he won't come."

Xiang Changning has been very busy recently, so naturally he has no time to take care of these things.

Empress Xu nodded without blaming her, but she heard someone murmuring that Xiang Changning didn't understand the rules, that the girl from the Xiao family was talking about her prestige, saying that Xiang Changning despised the empress because of her merits, Empress Xu frowned slightly, not waiting to stop it, I heard Lu Qiuling say, "Miss Si thought too much about it. General Xiang has indeed made meritorious service, but she has never used meritorious service to humiliate others. The frontier war is not yet settled, so state affairs should be the most important thing.The boudoir doesn't know the world situation, so don't talk about it."

With a gentle voice, like a lark singing softly, Xu Yuanqing looked at Shen Qiwen with fascination, and sneered with downcast eyes.

Empress Xu sized up Lu Qiuling and everyone present, and finally waved her hands, "Okay, you guys have also been greeted, I'm exhausted, you can step back."

Everyone retreated, Shen Qiwen appeared to pay his respects, Empress Xu didn't go around, and asked straightforwardly, "The prince has met, is there anyone who recognizes it?"

Shen Qiwen was quite hesitant. Empress Xu took the tea from the maid and took a sip slowly, "Miss Yang's calmness is very good. Although your father mentioned it a little bit, in the end it's up to you to like it."

Seeing that Shen Qiwen couldn't make up his mind, Xu Yuanqing guessed that Xin Zhengyuan must have said something to him, so he didn't dare to touch Lu Qiuling. In fact, Lu Qiuling was ambitious and only wanted to be a queen, and Shen Qiwen was an idiot, who had been manipulated to death by her for so many years.However, the two are a good match. Since Shen Qiwen didn't make up his mind, Xu Yuanqing, as a loyal reader, naturally wanted to help their love, so he stood up decisively.

"The Yang family has a strict family style, Miss Yang is a beautiful woman, and she is a good match for the prince." Xu Yuanqing stood up with a smile on his face, looked at Shen Qiwen's fierce eyes and continued, "Sister, I just heard what Princess Danyang said just now.My dear, if the crown prince doesn't like the princess, I don't know if I can ask my sister to say something nice for me."

Empress Xu: "Shut up, Nan Nan, the Crown Princess has not yet been decided, so don't overstep."

Shen Qiwen's face was ugly, and he asked with a smirk, "I heard that Madam combined the horoscope of the son's birthday with someone else's horoscope, is it a rumor?"

There are many people who know about this matter, but it was still the wind that leaked from his yard. Xu Yuanqing gathered up his robe and replied with a normal expression, "This is true."How do you know that my mother didn't match Princess Danyang's horoscope for me?"

He will be so quiet that he has nothing to say, "You..."

Xu Yuanqing turned around to salute Empress Xu, and said solemnly, "If the princess is not destined to be the crown princess, please tell me some kind words for me."

Shen Qiwen's eyeballs almost popped out, and he said through gritted teeth, "My father and emperor are in charge of my son's marriage, so my son will resign!"

After the person left, Empress Xu showed anxiety, hurried down and asked him in a low voice, "Is it really the horoscope of Princess Danyang?"

"Sister, why do you believe it? How can my daughter's family's horoscope be given to anyone casually? Besides, it is not a crime of deceiving the emperor to run for the princess concubine after matching my horoscope? I was just talking nonsense because I provoked the prince."

Hearing this, Empress Xu was relieved. She was too anxious just now and didn't think about it carefully. She had heard that the prince had been obsessed with Lu Qiuling for a long time. If she was so excited just now, she would lose her mind in a hurry and might do something.

The two of them have always been at odds. Empress Xu knew that she patted Xu Yuanqing in peace, "Lu Qiuling is not a good match, and I don't think you will like her either."

Lu Qiuling's popularity is mostly due to the beauty created by distance. People who have never been in contact with her have only heard of her talent and seen her appearance, so they have fantasies about her, but those who have been in contact with her don't like her.He even dislikes her a bit, she is obsessive and domineering, makes a high-profile publicity, does not give way to others, and enslaves servants, anyone with winking eyes will not befriend her, only lustful people like the prince are attracted to her.

When Xu Yuanqing left the palace, he heard Xiao Huangmen, who led the way, say that the crown prince had lost his virtue just now, and was reprimanded by His Majesty. Gein and Princess Danyang were arguing, and his words were indecent in public, which scared the other ladies.I fainted.

Shen Qiwen was really simple-minded and easy to catch, but he was hooked in just a few words.

Walking to the small gate, he happened to meet Xin Zhengyuan, Xu Yuanqing greeted him, Xin Zhengyuan told Xiao Huangmen to go first and he would also leave the palace, so he could show Xu Yuanqing the way.

Xin Zhengyuan was dressed in a vermilion official robe, rarely held a high position, but his spirit was not good, and he suddenly said, "It seems to be the same when I first met you."

Three years ago in spring, the weather was warm and hot. Xu Yuanqing went to the palace to pay respects to Empress Xu after his body softened a little.Yuan, who became famous when he was young, was full of vigor and vigor, and the young man greeted him enthusiastically and even guided him the way.

Xin Zhengyuan was very patient, he waited for him for a long time without showing any impatience, and carefully sent him back to the mansion. At that time, he had not yet entered the Eastern Palace, and had not yet made a close friendship with the crown prince.To benefit the common people, he often looks high-spirited and high-spirited.

Later, after staying with the prince for a long time, he became more and more haggard and decayed. Today, his hair is covered with white hair, his eyes are full of decay, and his spirit is lost.

Xu Yuanqing glanced sideways at the fake smile on his face, and vaguely remembered the young man he met three years ago, who was a little dazzling in the sun, and was pushed by time into the current rotten posture, "Lord Xin hates me?"

Xin Zhengyuan avoided answering, "I've always wanted to ask the prince a question."

"Master Xin, please."

Xin Zhengyuan: "Why does the prince have to fight against the crown prince?"

Xu Yuanqing stopped, glanced at him and then looked back, the endless palace walls, in previous years he had to rest several times when he walked such a distance, but this time he walked to the end in one breath, just because of his weakness, everyone in the house saidHe is back and forth, only Xu Yuanqing knows why he is getting better and better.

"If I say that I am my family, Mr. Shen will not believe it. If it is a personal enmity, the crown prince has never offended me publicly. I have always kept him from stepping down." Xu Yuanqing felt that he had gone too far, and he smiled lightly.He looked, but his eyes were cold, "Before Mr. Xin entered the East Palace, did you hear that I also set foot in the East Palace, and I also had contacts with the crown prince."

After finishing speaking, Xu Yuanqing felt sick in his heart. His frail body seemed to be unable to bear the physiological reaction caused by psychology, and he collapsed all of a sudden. He hurriedly supported the wall to prevent himself from falling down.

Xin Zhengyuan frowned slightly when he heard it. He had heard it before, so he was even more puzzled why he was going against the prince everywhere now.

"The crown prince is the crown prince. Even if there are mistakes, he is still the son of the real dragon, the chosen one. Is this son going to fight against the sky?"

Xu Yuanqing knew that he had a deep obsession with Shen Qiwen, and he could instigate him against him without thinking a few words. Suddenly his head sank and his eyes darkened. He waved his hands and refused Xin Zhengyuan's support, and straightened up, "Master Shen and IDifferent ways, let’s go here.”

After speaking, he staggered while leaning on the wall. He hasn't had such symptoms for a long time. It must be because he hasn't taken the medicine recently. It seems that the medicine can't be stopped, otherwise he will lose the chain at a critical moment, and he should look upright just now.However, this broken body has no momentum at all.

"Xu Shizi, what a coincidence." Xiang Changyuan came out out of nowhere, and greeted him enthusiastically. Seeing that he didn't care about alienation anymore, Xu Yuanqing raised his hand and greeted weakly, "Help me."

Seeing this, Xiang Changyuan hurriedly stepped forward to support him, with a nervous expression, "Are you sick again?"

This may not sound like a good word, but the truth is, Xu Yuanqing was supported by him, almost her whole body was pressed against him, and she felt a lot more comfortable, "Please send me home." After finishing speaking, I did not forget to add, "Just help me, don't hug."

As soon as he finished speaking, he closed his eyes, Xiang Changyuan anxiously carried him on his shoulders and ran away, heading straight to the outside of the palace.
