Chapter 269 Wanting to Recruit a Consort

Xiao Chenghan arrived at Yongning Palace during dinner time. Dinner was already being prepared in the main hall of Yongning Palace. Princess Xiao Yunxi of Leyao was also there tonight. This was the opportunity she had fought hard to have dinner with her father. She also wanted to take this opportunity.

Ask for grace for yourself.

After dinner, Concubine Yan Shu drank tea with the Lord, and Xiao Yunxi also chatted with her.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Xiao Yunxi said, "Father, can I choose my son-in-law by myself?"

Xiao Chenghan was surprised when he heard this and asked: "Oh, Le Yao wants to choose his consort? But there is already someone he likes?"

Xiao Chenghan knew that Lao Ba took Le Yao to the flower viewing party held at the eldest princess's house last time, so he guessed that his daughter had fallen in love with some young master at that flower viewing party.

Xiao Yunxi thought of the side she had met Anlehou, and thought of Anlehou's illustrious achievements. She felt that only such a young talent could be worthy of her.

A blush appeared on Xiao Yunxi's face, and she said a little shyly: "Father, the man I like has made great contributions to our Jin Dynasty. Moreover, he is both civil and military, has good character, and has outstanding talent and appearance.

"

Xiao Chenghan was very curious as to whether anyone who had made great contributions to the Jin Dynasty was married. Could it be Shao Yichen? Because only Shao Yichen had the highest status among those who had recently made great achievements and returned home in triumph.

He knew that his daughter would never find someone with a low status.

Xiao Chenghan asked: "Who is the hero?"

Xiao Yunxi said: "I met him once at my aunt's house. He looked like a jade tree facing the wind, and he was extremely handsome. Now he has made great contributions to our Jin Dynasty. The person I like most is Chu Jingyan, the Marquis of Anle."

Xiao Chenghan, who was drinking tea at this time, couldn't help but spit out a sip of tea when he heard this. He choked on the tea and coughed. Han Li quickly stepped forward and patted the Holy Emperor's back gently and handed over the handkerchief.

Xiao Chenghan picked up the handkerchief handed by Han Li and wiped his mouth, looking at Xiao Yunxi with strange eyes, "You said the person you like is Anlehou Chu Jingyan?"

Xiao Yunxi nodded, "Father, I have finally fallen in love with someone, please give me your permission."

At this time, Concubine Yan Shu who was next to her also spoke kindly for her daughter, "Your Majesty, Xi'er has told me about this many times. This Anlehou is indeed a young talent, and he is a good match for our Xi'er. Let's recruit him as our consort.

, it can also be regarded as a reward for the heroes."

Xiao Chenghan listened to the words of the mother and daughter in front of him and sneered in his heart, thinking that Concubine Yan Shu was really good at calculating. Now that she has seen Anlehou, she is so talented and has made great achievements. She will definitely have a bright future in the future. This is why she is planning to use her daughter to help her.

Eight wins over Anlehou, and thus can break one of Lao Si's arms.

Huh, these people are really capable of scheming, even their daughter's marriage. But this time they will be disappointed. Chu Jingyan is a woman and there is no way she can become the consort. She is destined to become the fourth son's wife.

Xiao Chenghan's face darkened and he said, "I have already made arrangements for Le Yao's marriage, but An Lehou cannot."

Yan Shufei froze in embarrassment when she heard this.

When Xiao Yunxi heard that her father rejected her request, her eyes immediately turned red, and her tone of voice was aggrieved, "Father, I really like Anlehou. Father, please allow me.

He doesn’t want anyone except his sons and ministers.”

Xiao Chenghan's face immediately darkened when he heard this, "What? Are you still threatening me?"

Concubine Yan Shu immediately stood up and apologized, "Your Majesty, calm down. It's all my fault that I didn't teach Yun Xi well."

Xiao Yunxi shed tears of grievance there.

Xiao Chenghan stood up angrily and glanced at Concubine Yan Shu, "Don't mention this matter again in the future. Don't let Le Yao run around outside the palace again. Let me learn the rules in the palace."

After saying that, Xiao Chenghan flicked his sleeves and left Yongning Palace.

Xiao Yunxi cried sadly when she saw that neither she nor her mother-in-law had agreed to her request.

Concubine Yan Shu saw her daughter crying sadly and patted her daughter on the shoulder and said, "Okay, don't cry. If your father doesn't agree, we can't do anything about it, so don't worry about it anymore."

Xiao Yunxi rushed to her mother, hugged her legs and begged, "Concubine, please help my daughter. My daughter really likes Chu Jingyan. If Chu Jingyan becomes her daughter's consort, what will happen to her in the future?"

I will definitely let him help Bago more. I will also try my best to bring him to Bago's side."

Xiao Yunxi knew that the most important thing for her mother-in-law was myna, so she could only start from myna.

Concubine Yan Shu certainly hoped that Anlehou would marry his daughter to help her son. Even if she could not completely help her son, it would be good to drive a wedge between Anlehou and the fourth child.

Xiao Chenghan returned to the Zichen Palace angrily, thinking that he should summon Lao Si and Chu Jingyan back as soon as possible, grant them marriage as soon as possible, and get the wedding done, which would also satisfy some people's thoughts.

Now the British government is thinking about Chu Jingyan, and the daughter who doesn't know her identity is also thinking about Chu Jingyan. Those who don't know Chu Jingyan's true identity don't know that there are many people who are thinking about her.

Xiao Chenghan immediately issued an edict asking Xiao Yilin to handle border affairs as soon as possible and return to Beijing as soon as possible.

——

Xiao Yilin and Jing Yi, who were at the border, were quite happy to be together every day. The two often went up the mountain to "treasure hunt" together.

Xiao Yilin handed over the construction of the pass to Shu Shenglun, who only occasionally asked about it. The affairs of the military camp were very familiar to him and did not require much time at all.

So every day after Xiao Yilin finished his official duties, he accompanied Jing Yi into the mountains to collect herbs. They really went into the mountains to collect herbs and did not look for mineral deposits.

Mineral deposits are so easy to find. Besides, Xiao Yilin thinks it would be great to have a copper mine in the north. If there are other mines, the north may not be peaceful. Beiyan may take risks and start a war again because of these mineral deposits.

.

If not now, then probably in the future.

There is only one copper mine in the north, which is easier to keep secret and safer. It is also easier to mine.

There are many precious and precious herbs in the mountains near Xiangzhou, and Jingyi harvests a lot every day. She has accumulated a lot of herbs in her hands, and she also secretly collected a lot in her lucky bag.

Jingyi also discovered several kinds of fruits in the mountains. Although they were wild, Jingyi also collected them. With the female parent, she could cultivate more and better varieties.

Jing Yi also made a lot of hemostatic powder for the Xuanwei army, as well as medicine to treat bruises and injuries.

Soldiers drill every day in the military camp, and injuries from injuries are common among soldiers.

Many of the soldiers of the Xuanwei Army who were seriously injured this time had to be operated on by Jing Yi. This was an eye-opener for the military doctors. They did not expect that the wounded could be treated in this way.

Many military doctors studied surgery with Jing Yi.

After everyone settled down, Xiao Yilin arranged for Jingyi to give lectures to the military doctors from time to time, imparting surgical and medical knowledge, as well as some first aid knowledge on the battlefield.
