Chapter 264
After Qian Jiujiu and Prince Xiaoman left the palace, Qian Jiujiu glanced at the prince vaguely: "His Royal Highness, haven't you thought about finding a princess?"
Mu Yexing heard such a topic in the palace just now, and now he heard Qian Jiujiu ask this again, he couldn't help laughing: "Why, younger siblings are very interested in the future princess?"
Qian Jiujiu shook his head: "That's not true, it's just that ordinary people care a little bit about those who spend their whole lives with them, and that's right, the prince is not an ordinary person."
"It can be said that my princess is talking too much. I have something to do, so I will leave first."
After finishing speaking, Qian Jiujiu left, Xiaoman looked at Qian Jiujiu's back, and didn't speak, but followed Mu Yexing silently.
But Mu Yexing listened to Qian Jiujiu's words, and was stunned for a while before realizing that Qian Jiujiu's words meant that he was too calm.
Glancing at Xiao Man behind him, he couldn't help but tease him: "Master Yongxi County, what does your sister mean?"
"Do you think I'm too calm?"
Xiao Man was stunned for a moment, apparently not expecting Mu Yexing to ask himself this question, and glanced at Mu Yexing.
"Back to the prince, my sister may mean that you are not an ordinary person, because for ordinary people, one wife is enough."
"And you, besides the crown princess, can also have side concubines. You can have countless women in your life. Even if you don't like the one now, you can just find someone you like in the future."
"So you don't need to care about the princess or something."
Mu Yexing opened his mouth wide and looked at Xiaoman: "Master Yongxi County, can you speak?"
How can you say that? But Mu Yexing discovered that what County Lord Yongxi said was true, and suddenly Mu Yexing shuddered.
He will be involved with countless women in his life in the future, thinking of this, he can't help but feel a little strange.
But it's hard to say what's strange, but Xiaoman glanced at Mu Yexing: "What does this mean, His Royal Highness? Xiaoman can talk, didn't you hear it?"
Mu Yexing gave Xiaoman a blank look, and stopped talking: "Forget it, let's go home and get in the carriage."
When the two got into the carriage, Mu Yexing glanced at Xiao Man from time to time, and Xiao Man frowned: "If you have any orders from His Royal Highness, you can speak directly."
The meaning of these words is also very straightforward, don't peek, just say what you want, Mu Yexing's face is a little unnatural.
Obviously Xiaoman is so young, how can he speak so aggressively? Fortunately, he is a generous-hearted His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
Otherwise, Xiaoman would definitely be punished for the crime of disrespect, but now it seems that he still has something to ask for.
Looking at Xiaoman, he heyed twice: "That Xiaoman, in fact, there is something that the prince really wants to ask you for help."
"You are just like Princess Xiao, you are weird, you can help me think about it, see if you have any good ideas tomorrow, to test those ladies?"
Xiaoman glanced at Mu Yexing: "It turns out that His Royal Highness still cares, but isn't this matter still left to the empress to handle?"
"Is His Royal Highness still dissatisfied? I suggest you ask someone to inquire about the performance of the ladies of each mansion in the mansion, and then analyze it to be more accurate."
Xiaoman was really puzzled when he said that. Looking at Mu Yexing's documents, it turned out that he was also worried about this issue in his heart.
It seems that he is worried about finding a bad concubine, and he doesn't even think about it. According to the empress's love for him, how could it be possible to choose a bad one for him.
In fact, Xiaoman completely misunderstood, Mu Yexing was just bored, so he just asked, and didn't intend to get an answer from Xiaoman.
Looking at Xiaoman, Mu Yexing decided to change the subject: "Master Yongxi County, do you have any objections to the Crown Prince?"
Hearing Mu Yexing's words, Mu Yexing glanced at him wonderingly: "Where is His Royal Highness, you are the prince, how dare Yongxi have an opinion on you."
Mu Yexing curled her lips: "You can just perfunctory me, seeing that your attitude towards me is completely different from that towards Qian Jiujiu."
Xiao Man couldn't help laughing when he heard this: "Is Your Highness joking? Your Highness and my sister are not comparable."
While talking, the Prince's Mansion has arrived, Xiao Man glanced at the Prince: "Your Highness, we're here, get off the car. The villain is going to prepare food for Your Highness."
After speaking, Xiaoman turned around and left. Xiaoman was absolutely on guard against the prince, but of course Xiaoman was still dissatisfied.
The reason is very simple, that is because the prince once told Qian Jiujiu the story of the dove occupying the magpie's nest, which is to doubt her whole personality.
After such a thing happened, I still want to be given a good face by others. Your Highness the Crown Prince, do you want to say that he has a good face?
And Qian Jiujiu didn't know anything about what happened here. After returning to the palace, he saw that Dong Chen who had gone to investigate Mu Yecheng's death had already returned with someone.
Looking at Qian Jiujiu, Dong Chen directly knelt down: "Princess, you are back."
Qian Jiujiu glanced at Dong Chen: "How is the investigation going? Who is the dead person? Where is Mu Yecheng?"
After several questions in succession, it could be seen how much Qian Jiujiu attached importance to Mu Yecheng. Dong Chen knelt down and answered Qian Jiujiu's words.
"Princess, the news has been interrupted. We found out that it was indeed only a guard who was burned to death, not the third prince."
"When I went to track down the whereabouts of the third prince, I lost several people, and finally lost the clue. Someone should be helping behind the scenes."
"Your subordinate has neglected his duty, please ask the princess to punish him."
Qian Jiujiu frowned, he didn't expect that Mu Yecheng, who had nothing left, would actually run away, so he was amazing.
"Get up, if you do mental calculations or not, how can you not escape? Let's put this matter aside for now. This princess is giving you a chance to make meritorious deeds."
"Right now, ask someone to check Concubine Qing's background and whether Concubine Qing has any relatives. Go."
Dong Chen couldn't figure it out, but now he was used to listening to Qian Jiujiu, so he turned around and went to investigate Concubine Qing's background.
Hong Chiu beside him looked at Qian Jiujiu but hesitant to speak, and of course Qian Jiujiu also saw Hong Chiu's appearance.
"Just say what you have to say, what do you want to say?"
Hong Chiu glanced at Qian Jiujiu: "Princess, isn't that Nanny Ping someone from Imperial Concubine Qing? It is said that she has been with Imperial Concubine for a long time."
"What do you want to know, maybe you can ask her."
Qian Jiujiu glanced at the red chips: "It's best not to let Nanny Ping know about this matter, the concubine mother has been her former boss for decades."
"It is estimated that the relationship with the concubine mother is much deeper, do you understand?"
Hong Chip immediately understood: "The servant understands and will keep it secret."
Qian Jiujiu still trusts the red chip, so he said kindly: "Let's go, let's go and see the north, south, and north."
After saying that, he turned around and went to the toy room. Now that he was looking for two children, the first choice must be the toy room. Sure enough, the two children had fun playing in the toy room!
While watching the two children playing, Qian Jiujiu thought, what happened in the recent period has changed, it would be great if Mu Yexiao came back now.
But calculating the distance, it will still take two or three days, and I won't be able to come back so soon, and tomorrow is a palace banquet.
I believe the queen has sent someone to send out all the posts by now. It will definitely be very lively tomorrow, thinking of this, Qian Jiujiu smiled.
She also agrees with tomorrow's palace banquet, that's because she also has a purpose, maybe she can hear something tomorrow.
Here Qian Jiujiu is planning, and in the palace, the queen is also planning, and this time she will choose three of the five women she likes.
As for who can be the crown princess and who can be the side concubine, it depends on their own fortune. Now everything is ready.
And everyone understands that the waiting time is tomorrow.
Qian Jiujiu looked at the two little ones who didn't understand anything, and was thinking about whether to take them with her tomorrow.
Thinking that no one will take them with them in the palace tomorrow, Qian Jiujiu decided not to take any risks, and it is better to keep the two children at home tomorrow.
In the blink of an eye, it was the next day. In the morning, Qian Jiujiu told Nanny Ping, "Take care of the two children."
After Nanny Ping agreed, Qian Jiujiu turned around and entered the palace. Today, Qian Jiujiu only brought two maids by her side, one is Hong Ling.
One was Qing Ye, and he set off with the two of them. After getting into the carriage, he headed towards the palace.
When Qian Jiujiu came to the palace, it was quite early, because the morning court was not over yet, and after today's morning court ended.
Because today's palace banquet is not only for the simple selection of the crown princess, but also for welcoming the envoys of the Qian Kingdom.
So the time was set at noon, after the morning court was over, the emperor could come with all the ministers. When Qian Jiujiu arrived, the queen was still walking around excitedly.
Looking at the preparations for the palace banquet, Qian Jiujiu bowed to the queen: "My daughter-in-law has seen the queen mother, is the queen still busy?"
The queen glanced at Qian Jiujiu, she couldn't hide her happiness. In previous years, she was most worried about her silly son.
Who would have thought that her crippled son married a good wife, and even had a stupid son. Therefore, the queen was always very grateful to Qian Jiujiu.
Looking at Qian Jiujiu: "Jiu'er is here, do you think the mother's arrangement is good? Today I chose a princess for your fifth brother, your mother and my life will be complete."
Although she never got the emperor's love in her whole life, she made a good choice and got the emperor's gratitude, just for this.
The queen lived like a fish in water in the harem, because she didn't lose her heart. Although there are some regrets in this life, everyone's choice is different.
The queen is undoubtedly the winner in life!
