Chapter 8 This Palace is Green?

"The Princess?" Princess Chengping seemed to remember something and said lazily, "I vaguely remember that ten years ago, my father chose one for me. Although that man was not as good as Yu Lang, he was still quite heroic and could only be regarded as a general. Since he had to find a princess, he was not as good as a familiar person, so he was better than a familiar man. I believe in the father's vision of choosing a man."

Princess Chengping's indifferent tone made the corners of the Empress Dowager twitch.

Madam Hua: "The person the princess mentioned is Gu Fengqi, the son of the Prince of Jing'an?

Princess Chengping thought for a while and nodded, "Yes, it's the son of Gu Xian, the Marquis of Jing'an. I only remember his famous father. After all, marriage depends on family background."

The Empress Dowager glanced at her granddaughter, "Gu Fengqi looks good and has a great ability. Now that she is a young master of the third-rank Flying Cavalry Guard, she is indeed a good match."

Princess Chengping nodded in agreement, and she said that the father's vision of men would not be wrong.

"It's a pity that he got married a few years ago, and now his eldest daughter is three years old." The Empress Dowager quietly added the second half.

Princess Chengping was stunned for a moment. After reacting, she became angry. She patted the armrests of the chair heavily. She wanted to stand up but found that her legs and feet were weak, so she could only sit and have an attack.

"Since Gu Fengqi is already in a marriage contract, how can he allow others? Their men yell all day long, but no one teaches them what husband is doing! He is simply shameless!"

The Empress Dowager rubbed her eyebrows, and she didn't want to talk anymore, so she just looked at Madam Hua tiredly.

Madam Hua said in a flat tone: "Princess, the engagement you had with Gu Fengqi was just a verbal word from the Emperor. You were injured and drowsy before the Emperor was formally issued. Besides, the Gu family waited for five years after you were sleeping, and then they got the permission of the Emperor five years later to get another marriage."

Princess Chengping's face was finally a little better, but she was still green. She asked in a cold tone: "Which family does not understand the rules? Even the man I have decided to marry? Who gave them the courage!"

Madam Hua: "General Gu's current wife, Princess, has just met her, and she is Xiao Huiniang from the Xiao family."

When Ying Dongjun heard this name, his voice couldn't help but hum from his nose. He waved his hand and said, "It's her? Forget it, this Gu Fengqi can actually fall in love with Xiao Huiniang. He has such a vulgar taste. It's better if this kind of man doesn't want it."

The Empress Dowager then spoke again, "Without Gu Fengqi, grandmother will choose a better prince consort for you!"

Princess Chengping thought for a while, "Okay, but I have a few small requests."

The Empress Dowager paused before saying, "What are the requirements, you say."

Princess Chengping pondered and said, "First of all, the appearance cannot be too bad, at least it cannot be worse than that Gu Fengqi, otherwise wouldn't my granddaughter be ridiculed by others? It doesn't matter whether I congwen or congwen. Literature has the charm of a literati, and martial artists also have the handsomeness of a martial artist, each with its own flavor. However, no matter how low the official position is, it cannot be lower than the third rank! Then..."

"Also?" The Empress Dowager's face was a little overwhelmed when she heard this.

"Well, add the last one. Even if it is not a family, the family must have a title of marquis or above. When people get married, shouldn't it be the first priority to get married?" Speaking of this, Princess Chengping sighed with regret, "If you want to say that Yu Lang is the difference, this one is too ordinary. Otherwise, she would be the best choice for the prince consort!"

The Empress Dowager: "…"

The atmosphere was frozen for a long time before the Empress Dowager regained her voice, her tone was a little serious.

"Chengping, you have to know that you are now twenty-five years old and no longer young! Xiao Huiniang and Ji'an, who are the same age as you, have already become children. If you are an ordinary girl, you can only wait for others to pick and choose from you. Fortunately, you have a high status and are protected by your grandmother. Now you still have room to pick others, but you can't be too ambitious."

Princess Chengping couldn't help frowning when she heard this and said in confusion: "Just because I am twenty-five years old, I can't have any requirements for my marriage? I have to just give up some crooked things? I remember that the Minister of Zhou from the Ministry of Revenue was 65 years old. She married a beautiful girl who was fifteen years old to fill the house, which became a beautiful story."

The Empress Dowager sighed and persuaded gently: "He is a man, you are a woman. This is the way of the world."

"What a world of killing!" Princess Chengping snorted coldly, raised her chin, and felt a little arrogant. "Anyway, I don't care about what others do. If I want to be my Princess Chengping's son-in-law, it's not a cat or a dog. Otherwise, I would rather not choose a son-in-law. At that time, wouldn't it be a beautiful young man to serve him? Why bother yourself!"
