I don't know what the queen mother means. "The king of Qin still behaved in a proper manner.

"I am your mother. There is no need for us to beat around the bush when talking to each other. Fifth brother! What is your relationship with this girl?" The queen stared at the King of Qin.

"My Queen Mother, this girl is just a good friend of mine. Since I am alone in Chang'an and have nowhere to stay, I am letting her stay in my house temporarily."

"Is that all? What is the origin of that girl?" the queen asked desperately.

"This..." The King of Qin and the Crown Prince both felt a pang in their hearts. They were doomed. They forgot to create an identity for her. How could they forget that a modern woman living in a mansion would need an identity to cover up her lie once she attracted attention?

The prince, who was watching from the sidelines, had an idea.

"My dear mother, I have seen this Miss Xia when I went to Lao Wu's house. I heard that she seems to be the niece of the former Minister of War Xia who has retired to his hometown. The eldest son of Minister Xia has always been good friends with Lao Wu, so he entrusted everything about my cousin's stay in Chang'an to Lao Wu to take care of." The prince was sweating as he finished speaking.

The King of Qin looked at the Crown Prince and thought that this boy was quite quick to react. Yes, the former Minister of War happened to have the surname Xia. His eldest son was also good friends with him and had stayed at his home for a short time when he went out for fun. It was said that Minister Xia's younger brother had disappeared many years ago, and the family he left behind was taken care of by Minister Xia. Not many people knew about it, and no one would investigate.

"Yes, mother, I went to the countryside where Minister Xia was staying some time ago and stayed there for a few days. Before returning to Chang'an, Master Xia told me that his cousin had always longed for the prosperity of Chang'an and wanted to come and have fun sometime. So I immediately took on the responsibility of taking care of Miss Xia." The King of Qin quickly followed the words of the Crown Prince. He thought to himself that he would write a letter to Master Xia to ask him to help him cover up the lie the next time he went back, so as to avoid being exposed in the future.

"So that's how it is! But why did I hear from the Crown Princess that you get along very well with Miss Xia? It doesn't seem like you are just ordinary friends?" The Queen still didn't believe the problem could be that simple.

"Mother, my son and Miss Xia got along well so we had more contact, that's all," the King of Qin replied.

The prince was so angry that his teeth itched. When he thought of the crown princess, he felt suffocated. This woman really wanted the world to be in chaos.

"So what do you think of Miss Xia's character?" The Queen asked desperately.

"Ms. Xia is of course a good girl. She is good-looking, has good character, and a good personality." The King of Qin did not know what the Queen meant, so he could only answer carefully.

"Oh! It seems that my son still has a good impression of this Miss Xia!" The queen seemed a little happy.

If this old man likes Miss Xia, that would be a great thing! The niece of the Minister of War is worthy of the prince. It is a pity to be a concubine, but if she is the Princess of Qin or a concubine, she can consider it. She said to the King of Qin with a smile.

"If I ask the Emperor to marry Miss Qin to you, would you agree?" the Queen asked the King of Qi tentatively.

"o(?Д?)っ!" King Qin

"Σ( ° △ °|||)" Prince

"What's wrong?" The queen looked at her two sons puzzledly, who seemed a little frightened by her suggestion.

"Mother, Miss Xia and I are just friends. We don't have any romantic feelings for each other. Besides, I have never thought of marrying her!" The King of Qin quickly distanced himself from the matter.

"I only ask whether you are willing to marry her. As for the love between a young man and a young woman, it will not be too late to cultivate it after you get married." The queen insisted.

"I don't want to!" King Qin said in a decisive tone. Are you kidding? If Mu Mu knew that her lifelong event was decided like this, she would eat him alive. Although he had a good impression of Mu Mu, modern people's attitude towards marriage was different from that of the ancients. It was inappropriate to just hastily decide on it, so he should stop it first!

"Oh! I am so disappointed!" the queen sighed.

"Mother, I see you coming." The one who came at this time was His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin. He had heard all the conversation just now, and of course there was also the Crown Princess who followed.

The two of them paid their respects to the Queen and sat down. The Crown Prince looked at the Crown Princess hatefully, but the Crown Princess pretended not to see it and looked at the Queen with a faint smile.

"The seventh prince is here! The Crown Princess is here too! I'm so happy today. It's been a while since we've had so many people here. It would be great if the third prince could come too." The Queen said with a smile

"My child is here too, mother." As soon as the words fell, the gentle figure of the third prince, Prince Yan, appeared.

"Okay, okay, haha, they are all here, all here." The queen was as happy as a child when she saw her four sons were all here.

The King of Yan greeted his brother and sat next to the King of Jin. The Crown Prince and the King of Qin thought, "Wow, they are all here. Now, this thorny issue has finally come to an end."

Prince Jin didn't think so. He didn't know what was wrong with Miss Xia. Her figure and smile kept appearing in his mind these past few days. Just now, when he heard outside the palace that his mother was going to arrange a marriage for Prince Qin, he was really nervous. He only breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Prince Qin said he was unwilling. Prince Jin didn't know what was wrong with him, but he just didn't want Mu Mu to marry someone else.

The Crown Princess looked at the situation and thought that she must not miss such a great opportunity, so she said to the Queen in a coquettish voice:

"Mother, didn't you say you would decide the marriage between the King of Qin and Miss Xia?"

The King of Jin usually had no good feelings towards the pretentious Crown Princess. He was even more disgusted when she brought up the old story again. He couldn't help but frown.

"Hey! The King of Qin said he doesn't want to marry the girl?" The Queen said in a disappointed tone.

The Crown Princess was a little nervous. Could it be that she had guessed it right? Was that woman really the vixen that the Crown Prince had entrusted to the Qi Wang Mansion?

Seeing King Jin sitting silently on the side, an idea suddenly came to my mind. I thought it would be a good idea to give it a try.

"Mother is too partial. The King of Qin has no wives or concubines, and the King of Jin has no wives or concubines either!" After saying this, he looked at the King of Jin.

When the Prince of Jin heard the Crown Princess mention him, his brows furrowed even deeper.

The Crown Prince and the King of Qin breathed a sigh of relief. They knew the King of Jin and knew he would not agree. But they still couldn't relax! Who knew what might happen if they were not careful?

The King of Yan was watching the show from the side, and he really wanted to know whether the King of Qin or the King of Jin would get married next. No matter who it was, he would be happy to see it happen, as these two men should have wives.

The Queen seemed to be awakened by the Crown Princess and looked at the King of Jin to see his answer. At this time, the King of Jin looked at the King of Qin's expression and felt a little angry. Didn't he just say that he didn't want to marry her? Why did he look a little nervous at this time?

So he asked without thinking.

"I wonder what the Queen Mother and the Crown Princess are talking about?"

"Haha! Recently there is a girl living in the mansion of the fifth brother. She is said to be the niece of the former Minister Xia. I heard from the Crown Princess that she is a rare woman. I thought that since she lives in the mansion of the fifth brother, she must be getting along well with the fifth brother. I was thinking of arranging for them to get married! Who knew that the fifth brother refused! Seventh brother! You are not young anymore. Since she is a good girl, and your fifth brother doesn't want her, why don't you take her in as your room? If she is really a good girl, give her the status of a concubine or even a princess, or let her be your concubine?" The queen tentatively asked her son who was always cold. Even she herself didn't know how she could give birth to such an outlier! And this outlier was the pride of her heart just like the crown prince.

"Since we are marrying, of course we should marry a princess. How can we let people suffer as a concubine?" When Prince Jin thought about letting Xiao Mu be a concubine, no matter if she was for him or someone else, he felt unhappy in his heart, so he said it without thinking.
