Chapter 143 Be a matchmaker for him and Xue Mei
Chapter 143 Become a match for him and Xue Mei
Xue Mei needs the help of Prince Ancheng.
The little prince seemed very interested and was willing to help her instead of just refusing.
The two of them stood in the sun and started chatting.
The palace maids and eunuchs passed by not far away, avoiding this road without disturbing them.
The palace maids were talking quietly.
"It's the Lord of Chengyang County."
"The imperial concubine was not treated, and the Imperial Hospital was helpless, so she was cured."
"Not only, she also cut the imperial concubine's kidney."
"You can live without kidneys. This county lord's medical skills are really great. The Queen Mother of the West even praised her."
"Have you never heard of it? She is a disciple of the ghost doctor Lu Qi. The Lu family has admitted it and call her ancestor."
When the palace maids talked about Xue Mei, they had a deep admiration and were all exaggerated words.
It seems that they are so powerful.
"Is that Prince Ancheng? He is very compatible with the Lord of Chengyang County."
"The Prince of Chengyang is very beautiful, and it is so good to match the little prince that the Queen Mother Dong should agree."
The palace maids may not have seen Xue Mei at close range, but only saw her from a distance. She walked leisurely and was not nervous at all in the palace, which was very unusual.
Xue Mei doesn't care about other people's comments.
She stood there carelessly, chatting with Xiao Mingyu, and talking about her needing Xiao Mingyu's help.
"...I cured the imperial concubine, and Your Majesty may reward me. This time, I don't want gold and silver anymore, and I want Your Majesty to make me the princess." Xue Mei said.
Xiao Mingyu laughed.
Princess, she mentioned it this way last time, and the emperor refused.
"What's good about the princess?" Xiao Mingyu asked.
"The princess can open a mansion, owns his own mansion, and supports his family." Xue Mei smiled, "The princess's golden treasure seal is stamped with the government and recognizes it. In the future, I will make a decision for myself."
Women have no seals.
They will have a small seal, printed on their books, just the fun of the boudoir.
The government does not recognize this seal.
Only the seal of adult men has the effect of the law.
Women like princesses and princesses are different from ordinary women.
Xue Mei couldn't be a princess anyway, so she worked hard on the princess.
After hearing this, Xiao Mingyu thought she was really unusual. Like Cheng Lanqing, she always valued what others ignored.
How can a woman insist on being the same as a man?
Most women think it is natural for them to belong to men.
"The county lord is not satisfied?" Xiao Mingyu smiled.
"The county lord doesn't have a big seal," said Xue Mei, "it can't open a palace."
Xiao Mingyu calmed down his joking mood.
He knew that Xue Mei had made serious requests and that he would do his best.
Therefore, he pondered for a moment, thought about everything before and after, and told Xue Mei: "According to my understanding of Your Majesty, it is unlikely that he will be named the princess this time."
Xue Mei frowned slightly.
Xiao Mingyu analyzed it to her: "First, you cut the imperial concubine's kidney, and this matter is causing panic in the court. If you have to repay merits and demerits, Your Majesty will not punish you or praise you very much;
Furthermore, you were named the county lord a few months ago, but now you have changed your name to be named the princess, which seems like your Majesty’s kindness is worthless. Your Majesty attaches great importance to your kindness. If you insist on asking for it, you will make him unhappy."
Xue Mei nodded after hearing this.
She knew that compared to her, Xiao Mingyu must know the emperor better.
He did not play tricks on Xue Mei. Xue Mei made the request of "Princess". He might get nothing and would be scolded.
"This time, if Your Majesty wants to reward you, you can ask for some money." Xiao Mingyu said, "Don't want anything. You asked for it last time. Your Majesty knows your personality. If you don't want it, Your Majesty will be a scheming person.
Your Majesty is not happy to fool him and lie in front of him. By the way, the last time you went to Prince Rui's Mansion, I may have said the wrong thing, which made Your Majesty mistakenly think that you did not do your best to save Prince Rui. Your Majesty is a little unhappy about this."
Xue Mei glanced at him.
Xiao Mingyu smiled: "I didn't mean it."
"How do you compensate?"
"The time is right in the future. I will help you become the princess, can you do it?" Xiao Mingyu asked.
Xue Mei nodded.
"Then I would like to thank the little prince." Xue Mei said.
Xiao Mingyu smiled helplessly.
After the incident was said, Xue Mei was going to return to Linhua Palace, and Xiao Mingyu was going to pay tribute to Empress Dowager Hu, but the two passed by.
He smelled the breath of Xue Mei, which had a refreshing smell.
After entering Empress Dowager Hu's palace, Empress Dowager Hu was in a good mood.
She told Xiao Mingyu: "The Lord of Chengyang County, recommended by the Ai family, cured the imperial concubine. The group of imperial doctors, including wine bags, the Ai family kept saying that they were all driven back to herd sheep, but Your Majesty did not believe it."
Xiao Mingyu smiled and said, "Grandmother, how stupid the people in this world are. If everyone is as wise as you, that's great? There are always a very small number of people who can see through it. Don't be angry with our stupid people."
"You kid, you are the best at speaking." Empress Dowager Hu smiled.
Then, she seemed to remember Prince Ancheng's marriage and sighed again.
"...Ai's family looks at it. The Lord of Chengyang County is a good person and is very compatible with you." Empress Dowager Hu said, "The Ai's family has to be the matchmaker for you."
Xiao Mingyu's heart broke out.
As if there was some strange expectation, he quietly stumbled his head and glanced at him.
"Grandmother, the Lord of Chengyang County is indeed a good girl. Grandmother, you always have a great vision. It's a pity that my grandson doesn't have this blessing." Prince Ancheng smiled.
Empress Dowager Hu shivered: "Why, you don't like her?"
"Not this. The Lord of Chengyang County was engaged several years ago. Her fiancé's grandfather passed away and caught up with the rules and was not out of the house." Xiao Mingyu smiled and said, "If the grandson goes to steal his fiancée, the censor's spit will drown me, and he will also implicate you, grandmother."
Empress Dowager Hu didn't expect this floor.
She couldn't help but feel a little regretful.
Xiao Mingyu did not breathe a sigh of relief, but instead felt a little deeper in his heart, something that suppressed his heart.
Why did you suddenly think of being a mediator for him and Xue Mei?
My grandmother hasn't mentioned his marriage for many years.
Often noble girls came to the palace, which made her very happy. The intention was obvious, and she was much more capable than Xue Mei, so her grandmother never let go.
Xue Mei came and didn't please her much, but she actually liked her.
Xiao Mingyu sighed heavily.
Xue Mei didn't know this, and she had returned to Linhua Palace at this moment.
In Linhua Palace, Empress Dowager Qi and the Emperor were both there, and Princess Yu and Princess Baoqing were also sitting down; Empress Yun, Concubine Shu, and Concubine De were not willing to fall behind.
Everyone was surprised after seeing Concubine Dan Tai.
Your Majesty wants to reward Xue Mei.
Xue Mei remembered Xiao Mingyu's words. Of course, even if Xiao Mingyu didn't remind her, she would keep her character in front of the emperor.
"What reward do you want?" the emperor asked.
Xue Mei took the opportunity to show off her merits and flatter the emperor: "Your Majesty was named the county lord last time, and Chengyang was flattered. However, Chengyang was relatively poor and could not deserve the noble status of the county lord, and the marquis's mansion was also in a downturn.
If Your Majesty rewards some money or jewelry and lets Cheng Yangeng go out to show off, the emperor's kindness will be great, and Cheng Yang will thank Your Majesty for your kindness."
Everyone: "..."
Princess Baoqing rolled her eyes: Even if she became the county lord, Xue Mei still has this kind of virtue and cannot be promoted.
King Yu was surprised to see Xue Mei. Who is really asking for a reward? Usually, he refuses.
The queen and others also opened their eyes wide.
The emperor laughed.
