Chapter 459 A Woman's Careful Thoughts
"Can this work?"
Hearing what Qiaoer said, Wannian couldn't help frowning.
"Princess." Qiao'er explained: "The general is a world-renowned hero, and he will definitely need a child to inherit his bravery in the future. Since the princess can't give birth to a child, why doesn't she marry the general?"
Princess Wannian showed a look of embarrassment, and the jealous nature of women came into play at this time.
It's true that Liu Ye is a chariot general, and I'm also a court princess, so what's wrong with him? What's more, if Liu Ye marries another house, what if he falls out of favor?
Qiaoer coaxed: "Princess, even if the general takes in a new wife in the future, after giving birth to a son, he will be a concubine after all. The princess can bring him over to raise him at that time, isn't he still the son of the princess?"
This kind of thing was very common in ancient dynasties. After the concubine of the nobleman gave birth to a son, if the main wife had no son, then the main wife could adopt the son of the concubine.
Princess Wannian said reluctantly: "What if I find a charming girl and compete with this princess for favor?"
Even though Princess Wannian is as honorable as a princess, she is still a little woman after all. She has no ambition to emulate Empress Lu of this dynasty, and she just wants to live a stable life under Liu Ye's protection with peace of mind.
Qiao'er nodded and continued to act as a dog-headed military adviser: "Then you can't choose the daughter of a noble family, otherwise the family will be its backing and will definitely compete with the princess for favor."
Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu went to Luoyang to study when he was young. He once said a famous saying that has been passed down to this day: To be an official is to be a Jinwu, and to marry a wife is to be a Yin Lihua. Zhi Jinwu is the leader of the forbidden army in the capital, commanding a group of Jinwu guards, escorting the emperor in the capital, majestic and majestic, so some people envy Zhi Jinwu.
And Yin Lihua is a lady from Xinye, she is beautiful and charming, and what the poor boy Liu Xiu hopes most is to marry Yin Lihua.
However, after Liu Xiu became emperor in Hebei, the queen was not Yin Lihua, but Guo Shengtong. Why?
Because Liu Xiu was in Hebei at that time, if he wanted to win the world, he had to get the support of King Zhending Liu Yang. Liu Yang said that I can support you, but you have to marry my niece.
Liu Yang's niece is none other than Guo Shengtong. Although Liu Xiu loved Yin Lihua very much, she had to accept this political marriage in order to achieve a great cause, so she married Guo Shengtong.
Although Princess Wannian was worried that she would not be able to give birth to an heir for Liu Ye, she was even more worried about meeting a Guo Shengtong.
Qiaoer thought about it, and suddenly had an idea: "Princess, Qiaoer has a good candidate here."
Princess Wannian asked curiously, "Who?"
"Cai Yan."
Wan Nian suddenly realized: "But the new Taishiling, the daughter of Cai Yong, a master of Confucian classics, Cai Wenji?"
"Yeah, haven't you heard?" Qiao'er pretended to be mysterious: "That day, the black mountain bandits were about to move, and the general personally led the troops to Hedong. It happened that Cai Wenji was expelled by the Wei family, and she met Xianbei people on the way. Thanks to the general's action." With help, we returned to Luoyang safely."
"Cai Yan is a talented woman with a gentle nature. Although Mr. Bo Jie is from a family of Confucian classics, he is indifferent to fame and wealth by nature." Qiaoer laughed and said: "Besides, there is a general who saves me, so wouldn't Cai Yan be a good candidate?" ?”
When Princess Wannian heard Qiao'er's words, a firm light shot out from her eyes: "Well, if that's the case, I'll go to Tai Shiling's house in person."
Cai Yong didn't go out of the gate, and devoted himself to compiling the "Book of the Later Han Dynasty". Suddenly, Cai Fu, an old servant at home, trotted in: "Master, there is a visitor."
Cai Yong buried the case and engraved words, frowned and said: "Who is it? If ordinary people are waiting, you can just send them away. Don't waste my time."
Cai Fu looked serious, walked up to Cai Yong, and said in a low voice: "My lord, this is General Cheqi's wife, Your Royal Highness the Eldest Princess."
Cai Yong was taken aback for a moment: "Eldest Princess?"
Strange and strange, why did Princess Wannian come to see me, Tai Shiling?
Just as Cai Yong was about to get up, the servant Cai Shan ran over panting again: "Master, the princess told you not to disturb you, she has gone to the lady's room."
Cai Yong's complexion became even weirder. When did Yan'er meet the eldest princess?
That's all, let's continue to study books.
In Cai Yan's room.
"The little girl Cai Yan has met His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess." Cai Yan bowed to salute, but was stopped by Wannian.
Wan Nian warmly smiled and said: "Sister said this, what is the eldest princess, if it weren't for Yuqing's protection, the Han Dynasty would have been on the verge of collapse, and I would have been no longer a princess."
"If you don't mind, I'll call you younger sister and you call me older sister. You and I are sisters." Wan Nian took Cai Yan's hand and said with a smile.
Although Cai Yan's enthusiasm for Wannian was a little strange, he still asked, "I don't know what the eldest princess is doing to me?"
Wannian sighed: "Oh, I'm a little ashamed to say it. We women, it's really a disaster. My sister, you married a sick child, and my sister's family was almost killed by Dong thief."
Originally, Cai Yan's complexion changed when he heard Wannian talking about his marriage to Wei Zhongdao, thinking that Wannian would come to mock him, but then he heard Princess Wannian lamenting his tragic fate, his head was a little confused, and he didn't know Wannian What is the princess going to say.
Princess Wannian glanced at Cai Yan and sighed: "It's a pity, since my sister married General Cheqi, she has not been able to give birth to a son and a half for the general so far. I'm ashamed too."
Cai Yan comforted him: "Nezha, a famous general of the Zhou Dynasty, was born, and his mother was pregnant for three years. My sister doesn't have to worry."
Princess Wannian sighed, and simply put her mouth on Cai Yan's ear, and muttered for a while, Cai Yan's face turned reddish immediately, and her white jade-like face burned like fire because of her shyness.
"this"
Wannian stepped up his pursuit: "Since the general saved your life, you must repay him, right? How many people are there in the world who are such a hero like the general?"
"Besides, I heard that Mr. Bo Jie compiled the "Book of the Later Han Dynasty" recently. There are tens of thousands of volumes of books in the palace treasury since the Zhou and Qin Dynasties. When you marry the general, won't you kill two birds with one stone?"
Cai Yan blushed and did not speak, but Wan Nian simply said: "Since this is the case, my sister should stop talking. According to the order of my parents and the words of the matchmaker, the general will naturally propose marriage to Mr. Bo Jie. My sister will follow me back to the palace." .”
"Ah?" Cai Yan was taken aback: "Isn't this a little anxious?"
"Hehe, don't be in a hurry, or the general will go to war again." Wannian took Cai Yan's hand and directly pulled him out.
Cai Yan was dragged by force and sent directly to the cart, Cai Yan was sent away with half push and half push.
After Cai Yong knew what was going on, he kept silent.
