Xiao Lingyue felt funny: "What is Concubine Shu doing? In the name of her birthday, she gathered the unmarried young men and ladies from all families together. Could it be that she wanted to pull the red line for others?"

Chu Yuanqi said in a slight way: "I can't figure it out either. I originally wanted to reject it, but she was a concubine in the palace after all, and she had sent all the invitations, so it was not easy to lose face... As for Concubine Shu's purpose, I heard two kinds of rumors."

"Let me tell me?" Xiao Lingyue was a little curious.

Chu Yuanqi said: "A kind of news is that because of the two sons and one daughter of Concubine Shu, His Highness Xiang and Princess Thirteenth have not yet married, especially His Highness Xiang, who is not young and has been reluctant to get married. Concubine Shu is worried about the marriage for her children, so she thought of bringing the young men and ladies from all families in the capital together in the name of her birthday to select daughters-in-law and future son-in-law from them."

Xiao Lingyue took a light breath: "This... sounds a bit scary."

Chu Yuanqi looked full of life and was hopeless: "I won't say anything about His Highness Xiang. There are still many ladies in the capital who fall in love with him, but the Thirteenth Princess..."

He wanted to speak but stopped, and a look of tooth pain appeared on his face.

Xiao Lingyue thought of the thirteenth princess's outspoken style, and her fiancé who was chasing the Eighth princess's fiancé, and was eager to dig up the corner of her sister, and was rushing to be a mistress.

For a moment.

She looked at Chu Yuanqi with a little sympathy: "So, are you among the candidates for Concubine Shu's son-in-law?"

Chu Yuanqi looked at her resentfully: "Can you stop talking so straightforward?"

"Puff." Xiao Lingyue couldn't help laughing, raised her hands and said apologizing, "Sorry, I'll be more tactful next time."

Chu Yuanqi looked at her with even more resentment.

Xiao Lingyue held back her laughter and couldn't help but look at him.

Zhenbei Hou Mansion has a great status in Northern Qin, and Chu Yuanqi is the only eldest son of the Chu family.

In terms of identity, he is better than Wen Shaoqing, whom the Thirteenth Princess is obsessed with.

In terms of appearance, although he is not as handsome as Wen Shaoqing, Chu Yuanqi himself is not bad at all, with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, and heroic spirit. He is exactly the opposite of Wen Shaoqing.

In terms of family style, Zhenbei Hou Mansion has a clean and upright family style, which is also not inferior to the literary family.

On character...

Xiao Lingyue didn't know Wen Shaoqing's personality very well, but Chu Yuanqi's personality was definitely not bad. Although he had a bit of a young master's temper, he was also a type of person who was easy to get along with.

"Hiss..." Xiao Lingyue took a light breath.

Chu Yuanqi was a little uncomfortable when she looked up and down, and his ears were slightly red: "Why are you looking at me like this?"

Xiao Lingyue said quietly: "Little Marquis, I feel you are in danger."

Chu Yuanqi: "...?"

"From all aspects of identity, appearance, family background, and personality, you are the best among the young masters in the capital, and it is easy to attract people." Xiao Lingyue told the truth.

Chu Yuanqi's heart thumped, and the enthusiasm suddenly spread to his cheeks.

His eyes flashed a few times, and a bright smile couldn't help but appear on the corner of his mouth, like a big dog who couldn't help wagging his tail after being praised, and was both happy and shy: "Is that right? Why did you suddenly..." praise him like this?

Xiao Lingyue didn't pay attention to his emotions and continued: "So, if Concubine Shu has no problem with her eyesight, she is likely to choose you as her son-in-law."

Chu Yuanqi: "..."

In an instant, it seemed like a basin of cold water was poured on his head.

His smile froze.
