The emperor had only been on the throne for a few days.
The ministers in the court began to propose a draft to expand the harem.
Although the emperor refused on the grounds that the expenses of the harem should be saved and used for the common people, the ministers of the court, especially those with daughters at home, still persisted in admonishing him.
Wei Guo Gong Fu Zhong.
Wei Wushuang felt extremely uncomfortable.
Although Mrs. Luo tried her best to hide it from Wei Wushuang, she could not hide this kind of thing after all. Wei Wushuang got better and finally found out. The emperor made her Princess Pingkang!
Now that the prince's brother has ascended the throne and become the emperor, it is impossible for her to be included in the draft!
Wei Wushuang became more and more depressed day by day.
Mrs. Luo's attention, which was originally transferred to Lian Zhi, was completely transferred to Wei Wushuang.
Although she felt ashamed of Lian Zhi, Wei Wushuang was the daughter she had raised single-handedly, and her affection was not comparable to that of Lian Zhi.
Mrs. Luo advised: "Wu Shuang, this is the end of the matter. Don't think too much about it. Taking care of yourself is the most important thing."
No matter how Mrs. Luo tried to persuade her, Wei Wushuang could not let go.
After being depressed for many days, Wei Wushuang went to Mrs. Luo and said, "Mother, I want to go to Huangjue Temple to live permanently and pray for the Emperor and Dajing."
Mrs. Luo didn't know what Wei Wushuang was doing, and said sadly: "Wushuang, at your current age, you can't delay any longer."
Wei Wushuang looked gloomy and said: "Mother, I don't want to get married. From now on, I will always be with Buddha."
Mrs. Luo couldn't help but cry: "Are you trying to steal my mother's heart?"
Wei Wushuang held Mrs. Luo's hand: "Mom, don't worry, I won't stay in Huangjue Temple all my life."
Only now did Mrs. Luo sense that something was wrong.
Wei Wushuang nodded lightly at Mrs. Luo: "Mom, everyone has told me since I was a child that I will marry the prince's brother in the future. I have worked hard for this for more than ten years and I will not give up easily."
Mrs. Luo worriedly said: "But, even if the emperor has already established a queen, as a princess, it is impossible for you to enter the emperor's harem!"
Wei Wushuang looked resolute and said: "It depends on human effort!"
Mrs. Luo opened her mouth to persuade her again, but looking at her daughter's expression, she did not say anything.
She knew her daughter well. At this time, Mrs. Luo felt a little regretful. She should not have told her daughter that she would marry the prince in the future when she was still young.
Even she thought that given the Emperor's affection for the Emperor Xiaoxian and the Empress Dowager Xiaoxian, there would be no big problem for the daughter of the Wei family to enter the harem.
Now my daughter has developed an obsession and can't look back.
Mrs. Luo's mouth was full of bitterness, and she said to Wei Wushuang: "Okay, you can go to Huangjue Temple for a while and then go. If you figure it out, I will send someone back, and my mother will pick you up."
Wei Wushuang nodded.
After sending Wei Wushuang away, Duke Wei said to Mrs. Luo: "The emperor's harem is empty. Now the courtiers are proposing a draft for the emperor to spread the branches of the royal family. I'm afraid it won't be long before the draft is held."
"You take Wuyou back to the house and teach him some rules."
Mrs. Luo's face turned ugly when she heard this, and objected: "Master, Wuyou has a simple temper, so there is no place for him to be sent to the harem."
Wei Guogong said displeasedly: "What's inappropriate? Wuyou is the right age and has a good relationship with the queen. It will be smooth sailing when entering the palace."
Mrs. Luo smiled sarcastically: "What did the master say? Wuyou has a good relationship with the queen now. There is no interest in it. How can it be like this after entering the palace?"
Wei Guogong was a little impatient and said: "Then what do you think we should do? Wushuang has been canonized as a princess by the Supreme Emperor. If we don't give Wuyou away, how can we give it to the daughter of the side branch? How can the daughter of the side branch be of the same mind as ours?"
Mrs. Luo originally obeyed her husband in everything, but this time she didn't want to.
No need to ask, she also knew that Wuyou was not willing to enter the palace. The eldest daughter Wushuang is determined to enter the palace. If she knew that her family was sending her younger sister to the palace, she would be even more sad.
Mrs. Luo was unusually tough: "In any case, I don't agree to send Wuyou into the palace."
"What's wrong with the daughter of a side branch? You always have to rely on your family to enter the palace. What's more, you are the emperor's uncle and you can't get past this family."
It was the first time that Duke Wei Guo saw his wife's tough attitude. He was a little surprised and said, "Think about it again."
The couple broke up unhappy.
The next day, Mrs. Luo called Lian Zhi to the Duke of Wei's mansion.
Lianzhi showed Mrs. Luo a gift, and Mrs. Luo pulled Lianzhi to sit on the couch next to her and asked, "Wuyou, you are now in your period of filial piety. In a few days, my mother will hold a banquet to officially You introduce me to everyone.”
Lian Zhi didn't want to be so pushy and replied: "Mom, didn't I introduce you before? There's no need to hold a special banquet."
Mrs. Luo saw that her daughter didn't understand, so she said more clearly: "You are also old, and it is just right for this banquet to meet a son of about the same age in the capital."
Lian Zhi felt a little embarrassed after hearing this, and Chen Shigao's face appeared in his mind.
Recently, that guy is not like he used to tease her all the time. Instead, he always gives her this and that, saying he is trying to apologize for what happened before.
Mrs. Luo was someone who had been here before. When she saw Lian Zhi's expression, she immediately became vigilant and asked, "Wuyou already has someone you like?"
"ah?"
"No no."
Lian Zhi's face turned slightly red.
Mrs. Luo didn't understand anything when she saw it. She took Lian Zhi's hand and said sincerely, "Is there anything I can't say to my mother?"
Lian Zhi didn't know it in her own mind. She felt that she didn't hate Chen Shigao as much as before. If she said he was a husband, he couldn't really be called a husband. It was just that he was always in front of her, so she could only Thinking of this person, he said: "Mom, there really isn't one."
Mrs. Luo didn't force herself and said, "Then let's take a good look at it during the banquet."
"Mom doesn't expect you to marry into a rich family. You are simple-minded and have been accustomed to being at ease since you were young. As long as your character is noble and what you like, it doesn't matter if your family background is lower."
Lian Zhi nodded after hearing this. She didn't want to marry into a wealthy family. She was not used to it and couldn't do it.
After thinking for a while, Lian Zhi asked again: "Mom, didn't you say before that you want me to stay with you for a few more years since I'm not old? Why are you so anxious now?"
Mrs. Luo wanted to find an excuse at random, but then she thought about it and told her daughter the truth. Firstly, her daughter knew what she was thinking, and secondly, she took the opportunity to ask Lian Zhi what she thought.
He said: "The emperor has ascended the throne, and the ministers in the court are urging the emperor to draft a draft to expand the harem. Your father wants you to go."
When Lian Zhi heard this, his face turned pale and he shook his head hastily: "Mom, I won't go!"
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Luo said, "Mother knew that, so she asked you to settle down early."
