There is Room For the Poor Daughter - Chapter 761
[Chapter 761, mutual accommodation]
Princess Lekang walked aimlessly on the corridor in the palace, thinking of what she just overheard outside the government hall, a sarcastic smile slowly emerged from the corner of her mouth.
Regarding her marriage to Xi Liao, her maternal ancestral family, which is quite powerful in the court, did not raise any objections. Instead, it was Xiao Yeyang, this not very close cousin, who stood up and spoke for her.
No wonder my mother has always avoided seeing the Jiang family all these years. No wonder my mother often told her not to get too close to the Jiang family. It was not until today that she realized that the Jiang family was really terribly cold-blooded.
Will father
and father agree to the marriage proposal of the eldest prince of Xiliao?
“Princess, it’s getting late, shall we go back?” Seeing that it was already dark, the palace maid had no choice but to remind her.
Princess Lekang gave a faint ‘hmm’ and continued to walk slowly.
The emperor did not give a clear response to Xiliao’s marriage proposal. In the early days of the court, civil and military officials were arguing over this matter. Most people felt that for the stability of the northwest frontier, they should agree to the marriage.
Yan Mansion.
Garden gazebo.
“Xiao Yeyang, will the emperor agree to a marriage?”
Dao Hua handed over the newly added and subtracted drawings to Xiao Yeyang.
Xiao Yeyang took the drawing and looked at it, and said with a faint smile, “No.”
Hearing what he said with such certainty, Dao Hua was a little surprised: “Why?”
Xiao Yeyang: “Uncle Huang is a talented and bold emperor. On the border issue, he will not be like those short-sighted officials in the DPRK and China, advocating peace in exchange for a few years of stability.”
“If you want to keep the border stable forever, peace is useless, the country is strong and the army is strong. Even I understand this point, and the emperor’s uncle will naturally know.”
Daohua showed a puzzled face: “Then why didn’t the emperor directly reject the eldest prince of Xiliao?”
Xiao Yeyang smiled: “Xiliao’s request for marriage is actually a disguised temptation.”
“If you agree directly, the people of Xiliao will feel that Daxia is also eager to maintain peace. After the battle, there is no fighting strength.”
“If you decide directly, you will feel that Daxia is so strong, can you still raise troops against Xiliao? This will undoubtedly arouse Xiliao’s vigilance against Daxia.”
“No matter where it is Either way, we will let Xiliao make corresponding arrangements.”
“Now that they are not sure about our actual situation, we can take more initiative.”
“Again, Uncle Huang must have other considerations. Princess Lekang comes from the queen, she is the only daughter of the queen, and the queen comes from the Jiang family. This time, the Jiang family has done nothing, what will the queen think? Will she still have one heart with the Jiang family?”
For the uncle of the emperor, the stability of the harem is It is also very important.
Daohua’s face suddenly revealed.
Xiao Yeyang smiled and said: “Okay, don’t talk about these things, have you eaten the fruit I sent you yesterday?”
Daohua laughed suddenly: “Yes, I ate it.” Turning to look at Wang Man’er, “Go and bring me a plate of the durian mousse I made this morning.”
Xiao Yeyang looked surprised: “Are you used to eating it? Many people say that the fruit called durian smells bad .” Yes .”
Daohua smiled and said: “I think it’s delicious, you can try it later.”
Xiao Yeyang showed a little resistance, and he was not used to the fruit, which shows that Daohua wanted to be with her The way he shared the delicious food, he silently swallowed the words of rejection.
At this moment, Yan Wenxiu, his wife and three sisters, Yan Yihuan, came over.
“Big brother, sister-in-law, second younger sister, third younger sister, and fourth younger sister, why are you all together?”
Dao Hua stood up and ushered him into the pavilion. Xiao Yeyang didn’t move. There is no deliberate avoidance like before.
Han Xinran greeted Xiao Yeyang with a smile, and then said, “We just came from grandma.”
Yan Wenxiu walked towards Xiao Yeyang, and the two stood by the pavilion talking.
Seeing that Yan Yihuan and the three were all dressed up, Daohua asked with a smile, “Is grandma having guests?”
Han Xinran glanced at Yan Yihuan with a smile and nodded.
Seeing Yan Yihuan blushing and lowering her head, Daohua suddenly remembered that Mrs. Li mentioned to her two days ago that her father had fallen in love with a family and was going to tell Yan Yihuan. Could it be that family came to the house today?
The matter hadn’t been settled yet, Daohua didn’t ask, and chatted with Han Xinran about other things.
Han Xinran: “Mother said that the Su family will go to Beijing in the next two days.”
Daohua said with a smile: “It’s already July, and October is only three months away. It’s time to come to Beijing.”
Han Xinran smiled: “There are several happy events in our family this year.”
At this time, Wang Man’er came over with Liuli mousse.
“This is my new dessert, please try
it!” Daohua enthusiastically sold the dessert to everyone.
Everyone in the Yan family knows that Daohua likes to come up with new tricks from time to time, so she inserted a piece of dessert with a bamboo stick to save face.
However, when they smelled the dessert, Yan Wenxiu and the others did not move their mouths for a long time.
“Eat it!”
Daohua ate a piece, seeing that Xiao Yeyang hadn’t moved, she quickly inserted a piece and handed it to his mouth: “Try it, it’s delicious.”
Xiao Yeyang glanced at Daohua and opened his mouth Eat the dessert.
When Yan Wenxiu and the others saw it, they all looked at Xiao Yeyang with an air of inquiry: “Is it delicious?”
Xiao Yeyang’s face was a little stiff, and after chewing a few times and swallowing it under Daohua’s expectant eyes, he expressed affirmation. Nodded: “The taste is very good, everyone should try it.”
Yan Wenxiu took a small bite with the mentality of giving it a try, then ran out of the pavilion impatiently, and vomited on the ground.
Seeing Dao Hua, she was a little speechless: “Brother, you reacted too much.” Then, he inserted another piece into his mouth, then turned to look at Han Xinran and the others.
Seeing Yan Wenxiu’s reaction, Han Xinran didn’t have the courage to try it, so he put the dessert back silently.
Seeing that they refused to eat, Daohua looked regretful: “Durian is a good thing, it’s a pity if you don’t know how to eat it.”
“Give me another piece.” Xiao Yeyang said suddenly.
Daohua’s eyebrows and eyes frowned immediately, and she took a piece and handed it to Xiao Yeyang, but she took it back when she was about to put it to his mouth: “Do you really like it?”
Xiao Yeyang said with a wooden face: “Of course, I I think it’s not bad.”
Daohua revealed her face and explored: “Everyone’s taste is different, if you are not used to it, don’t force yourself.”
Xiao Yeyang glanced at Daohua: “I like everything you make. Eat.” As he spoke, he took her hand and ate the dessert in one gulp.
When Yan Wenxiu and the others saw Xiao Yeyang swallowing the dessert without changing his expression, they all expressed admiration.
Daohua looked at Xiao Yeyang’s stiff cheeks, smiled silently, put down the bamboo stick, and asked Wang Man’er to bring the dessert down.
Xiao Yeyang: “.I can eat a few more pieces.”
Daohua said with a smile: “I’ll give you all the delicious food, but I have to save it to honor the elders.”
Xiao Yeyang: “Then All right, I won’t eat.”
Listening to the conversation between the two and watching the two accommodating each other, Han Xinran was a little amused and envious at the same time.
In fact, she had a really good life after getting married. Her husband was considerate and gentle, and she didn’t have a concubine to share a house with her, but she always felt that something was missing.
She and Xianggong will not get along like the eldest sister and the young prince. Even if they are bickering, the atmosphere is sweet and warm.
Yan Yihuan was also secretly looking at Daohua and Xiao Yeyang with longing in her eyes.
Thinking of the lady I met today, and of the Young Master You who she spoke so highly of, I couldn’t help but have many expectations for the future.
