Chapter 4 Proposal

"The Second Highness is here, so you won't kneel down!" the coachman scolded, showing no mercy at all.

"The Second Prince saves my lady~" Zhong Ling heard this and shouted loudly. When the people around him saw that it was the Second Prince, they knelt down one after another, looking very frightened.

Although Sikong Bin was not convinced, he was also somewhat suspicious about whether the Second Highness was in the car. After all, the second Highness would appear here for no reason for the night banquet in the palace tonight? But with so many people around him watching, he couldn't help but smear the royal face, and finally he barely knelt down. The coachman helped Chen Yuan and the others into the carriage. Sikong Bin looked in the car unwillingly, but it was dark and he saw nothing.

After getting in the car, Chen Yuan calmed down. She knew very well that there would be no second prince in the car. Because the second prince was ordered by the emperor two days ago to inspect the disaster, it should be a few days before he could return to the court. However, Sikong Bin never cared about these things, so naturally he didn't know whether the second prince was real or the second prince in the car. So he was a playboy, but he was also tactful and didn't bother him anymore.

Chen Yuan knew that this was his own pretender, because the current situation was that unless the people from the palace came, who could still shock Sikong Bin? But it was enough to know these tricks, because others didn't know it. It was just that Chen Yuan was helpless because the Miss Gu family got on the Second Highness's carriage and horse, and in this way, gossip may be inevitable.

I thought the farce would end, but I didn't expect that a few days later, Sikong Bin really brought the matchmaker to propose marriage. This made Chen Yuan very embarrassed and annoyed and angry.

Prime Minister Gu politely received these people from the Sikong family. He was not afraid of the power of the Sikong family, but he didn't take this matter seriously at all. How could his granddaughter Chen Yuan marry such a playboy?

The matchmaker said all the good things, as if Chen Yuan had gained great benefits when marrying her. After all, in the eyes of others, this is a blessing that cannot be obtained even if she asks for it. If Prime Minister Gu does not agree with this marriage, it is ungrateful.

Gu Zheng was holding his white beard. When he listened to these words, he did not show any emotion. He just told his servants to ask the lady.

"Why do you have to ask the lady? This is definitely uncountable. How can you push the lady into the fire pit?" Zhong Ling was a little angry. She didn't understand why the Prime Minister didn't just return it.

However, Chen Yuan understood that the people of the Sikong family could not be easily offended for the time being. The grandfather was here to solicit his own opinions on the surface, but his attitude was already very clear. Since ancient times, marriage was the order of his parents and the matchmaker's words. If the grandfather really agreed to this marriage, why do he need to express his own opinion?

My grandfather just wanted to fight back from the Sikong family through himself. Even this vulgar man wanted to marry him, which was simply a fool!

Immediately, Chen Yuan asked Yuxiu to take back a few requests for betrothal gifts, saying that as long as these things can be achieved, no matter who it is, she, Gu Chenyuan, would agree without saying a word.

But Sikong Bin and the matchmaker were completely stunned when they saw these requests. Who can do this?

One must be the end of the sea and another round

Second, you need to have two sleeves of flat wind

Three phoenix tail feathers

"My lady said that if you don't have the unparalleled things in this world, you won't have the unparalleled people in this world!" Yu Xiu happily returned to the inner courtyard when he saw Sikong Bin and the others' expressions.

What is this requirement? Where does the bright moon come from under the sea? How can the plain ground get a clean breeze, and the phoenix tail feather? Who can get it?

Needless to say, Sikong Bin and others had to return in disappointment. Since then, Chen Yuan's request for choosing a son-in-law has spread throughout the Western China. Everyone laughed at Sikong Bin for being overestimated and made the Sikong family feel shameless. After this incident, no one dared to easily go to the Prime Minister's Gate to propose marriage. Gu Zheng didn't know whether he should be happy or worried.

It is said that Sikong Bin could not hold the beauty back. He was crazy and went to ask his queen and aunt to ask the emperor to give him a marriage, but there was no movement later. It was thought that two months later, Yu Jing's envoy wanted to come to Xihua, so these trivial matters were nothing.

On this day, Chen Yuan received an invitation from the third princess Wei Jinxi to enter the palace.

Speaking of this princess, her biological mother is a palace maid with a humble status, and Jinxi passed away after she was born, so Jinxi was always raised by her legitimate mother Empress. Although it seemed glorious on the surface, the queen did not take this illegitimate princess seriously in private and did not summon her very much on weekdays.

However, the emperor was kind to this daughter, and the granddaughter of Prime Minister Gu was also lonely and helpless, so he asked her to be his companion and asked Chen Yuan to be Jin Xi's companion. Therefore, Jin Xi could summon Chen Yuan to the palace at any time without asking the queen for an order.

Chen Yuan entered the palace and heard about the Queen summoning Sikongqing. Sikongqing was using tea on the queen's side, while Chen Yuan and Jin Xi were whispering around the warm stove in the palace.

After a while, Jin Xi has lost a lot of weight and looks a little haggard.

Before she could ask in detail, Chen Yuan guessed why she was so lonely. "Have essay Sikong often entered the palace recently?"

As expected, Jin Xi's eyes darkened, she sighed and nodded slowly, "As soon as the ceremony of the hairpin has passed, I have always been to my mother's side recently, and everyone in the palace said..." Jin Xi couldn't help but sigh and said nothing.

However, Jin Xi's personal maid said that it was rumored in the palace that Jin Xi's status was not as good as a lady in a noble family, and everyone was watching her jokes.

Jin Xi has been not very happy about her identity since childhood. Now Sikongqing is very popular, but instead she seems to be a humble princess. People in the palace have always been worshipping high and low, but Chen Yuan can understand it. But looking at Jin Xi's appearance, it may be even more difficult to stay in the palace.

"Since the palace is so unsatisfactory, have my sister ever thought of getting married soon?"

In fact, Jin Xi had already reached the age of marriage, but the queen had been suppressing the matter, and the ministers with good looks in the court would not take the initiative to ask for such a princess, so her marriage was delayed.

Seeing Jin Xi frowned, Chen Yuan comforted: "Sister, the envoy of Yu Jing will come to propose marriage soon. Among the royal princesses, except for Princess Jinlan and Princess Jinyi who are already married, the other princesses are still in the age of the general. This is the most suitable for you. If your sister gets married in another country, she will no longer be afraid of the queen and will not suffer these grievances."

"But, will the mother agree to such a thing? I always feel that the mother intends to let Sikongqing marry..."

Chen Yuan smiled meaningfully, "It depends on whether my sister is willing or not, how can I control the Queen?"

"Could it be that my sister has a solution?"

It is indeed possible to think of a method, as long as you win it, you can win it. Moreover, Chen Yuan originally thought that Sikongqing came back at this critical moment to get married, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that it would not be so simple.

First, Yujing Kingdom is not a local country, and the Sikong family may not be willing to marry Sikong Qing. Second, the Sikong family values ​​this lady so much and creates a very expensive life-criticism. They must have wanted to help her ascend to the throne. Only in this way can the power of the Sikong family be maintained, and they will not let Sikong Qing go far and let Sikong Qing be a concubine of another country with uncertain future.

So, if Sikongqing returns to her house, if Chen Yuan guesses well, the Sikong family is going to let her be the princess of the Second Prince.

Although the Second Highness had a biological mother, he was adopted under the name of the queen in his early years because he had no queen's birth. Although the queen now has a young son and the prince is not decided, with his current status and reputation, he can be regarded as the best candidate for the crown prince.

"Sister, don't worry, as long as my sister is willing, I will plan it for my sister."

In a blink of an eye, the spring breeze brings warmth. It was April, and the envoys of Yujing Kingdom arrived as scheduled.

Although Chen Yuan did not see the scene in person, he heard the rumors in scatteredly and was a little curious about the Xiangcheng princess and the almost mythical right prime minister Ying Zhen.

It is reported that the princess Xiangcheng came to horses, and was heroic and not as squeamish as a young daughter. She was quite masculine as a man. Ying Zhen was following her, which made everyone even more amazed, and they all praised Yu'er Lang.

In the past few days, news about the envoy of Yujing was spreading on the streets and alleys. For a time, women gathered in the streets, hoping to meet the young master Ying Zhen by chance.

When Yuxiu told Chen Yuan about this, Chen Yuan was thinking. If she was Ying Zhen, she would not dare to go out to meet people. The scene would have been very lively.

"Miss, the day after tomorrow is the day when Wangshan is visiting the park. Why don't you go? Don't you want to see that young man?" Zhong Ling asked coquettishly.

In order to entertain the envoys, the emperor and queen of Xihua specially set up a garden party in Wangshan, Jinzhou. At that time, the nobles and children could visit, which was to ask the Princess Xiangcheng to appreciate the cultural style of Xihua.

"You want to see the young master!" Yu Xiu couldn't help but make fun of him.

Chen Yuan pointed at Zhong Ling's unwilling head, deliberately kept it aside, smiled, "Why don't you go? Not only will I go, I also have to change my identity!"

Xiyue: I really want to see the young master~
