Zhen Huan is still in love, and her sister's goal is to become the queen mother

Huimin had also had the same worry as An Lingrong. Logically speaking, most young people of this age have fantasies about love. Even if they don't particularly like someone, they will have some affection and preference for them.

But what about Hongyao? He treated everyone equally.

He goes to the Queen's place the most often, three times a month, but the first and fifteenth days are the rules set by our ancestors. He goes to Concubine Rui's place twice, and the rest of the nobles only go once a month. Those with lower ranks may not even see the Emperor in a month.

Yingyue is still young and has not yet served the emperor in the imperial bedchamber, but Hongyao often goes to her palace to have meals with her. However, it seems that Hongyao only treats Yingyue as a younger sister.

It was just because she was a cousin with whom he had some affection, and most importantly, because of his mother's family background, that was why he treated her a little differently.

It's said to be love between a man and a woman, but I really can't tell.

Even if Hongyao said he liked the Queen and the others, based on Huimin's understanding of her son, that was really not the case.

But it is not true to say that Hongyao disliked these concubines. After all, every time Hongyao went to the places of several high-ranking concubines, those concubines were always laughing in the palace, and each of them looked as if they were deeply in love with Hongyao.

Huimin also understands her son's temper. The child attaches great importance to his family. He cares the most about his mother and his younger brother Hongxi. He also has a lot of importance in his heart for his several good brothers. In addition, he has deep feelings for Xia Dongchun and An Lingrong, the two stepmothers who raised him when he was young.

But while my son is loyal and righteous, he also has a thick barrier in his heart. It is not easy to enter his heart and occupy a place.

Now, things have become even more difficult after Hongyao ascended the throne.

It's just a small corner and it's hard to squeeze into.

Hongyao was nice to both Niuhulu and Fucha, but Huimin knew that Hongyao did so mostly out of consideration for the families behind them.

Afterwards, Huimin and Fucha Peiyun also talked about this matter.

Fu Cha Peiyun comforted him:

"Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. If Hongyao's mind is not on this, then he doesn't care about it. He wants to be a wise ruler who will be remembered for generations. It's okay for him not to indulge in love. Besides, it's not certain what will happen in the future."

"I'm worried about my Hongqing. Your Hongyao has countless girls rushing to him, but our Hongqing..."

Fu Cha Peiyun's face was full of hesitation, "He is already sixteen years old, it's time for him to choose a wife, but..."

Fu Cha Peiyun hesitated for a moment before saying:

"You know Hongqing's situation. Which of those girls from aristocratic families would be willing to marry him? Even if the emperor arranged the marriage, they certainly wouldn't dare to disobey. But if they married him and harbored resentment towards Hongqing, then..."

"I don't ask for anything else, I just hope to find someone who doesn't look down on Hongqing and can live a good life with Hongqing."

Fu Cha Peiyun's worries are not unreasonable. Although Hong Qing currently looks no different from a normal person, the symptoms he had in his childhood had already spread throughout the capital. Now, his reaction is a little slower than others.

The daughters who were well-educated by the aristocratic families would never disobey the imperial edict for the sake of their family, but it was not certain what they were thinking in their hearts.

This is indeed a difficult decision.

There is also Shen Meizhuang. Hongjun has also reached the age to get married, but Shen Meizhuang is more worried than Fucha Peiyun.

Although Hongqing was a little slow to react, this concubine was a little difficult to choose.

But in fact, Shen Meizhuang did not have to worry that this wife was unwilling to marry Hongjun. Instead, she had to worry that Hongjun would look down on this future wife.

Hongjun's mother knew him best as to what kind of temper he had.

This child has a capricious personality and a changeable temper, but because of this he is admired by the noble ladies in the capital as having personality.

Hongjun had a face like a pretty girl, and his complexion was a little pale due to his weak physique. He was tall and slender. He was not thin due to years of martial arts training, but he was definitely not a burly person. He looked elegant and graceful, and because of his good looks, many women in the capital fell in love with him.

Moreover, Hongjun was well-known for his talent at a young age, and many civil servants were optimistic about him, and many of them wanted to marry their daughters to him.

But it was useless for others to think highly of him, because no one looked down upon Hongjun.

Hongjun's temper is that Hongyao comes first and he comes second. Ordinary people are simply not worthy of his attention.

Choosing a wife makes Shen Meizhuang worried.

My son has such a bad temper. He is arrogant and conceited. Any young lady who marries him should not be irritated by him and end up quarreling with him every day.

At least Hongqing has a gentle personality and a simple and honest temper. After Fujin marries him, the couple can get along with each other slowly and get along with each other.

But what about Hongjun?

ah~

If I were to choose a wife for Hongjun, how could I pick one that would satisfy him?

The late emperor was really a shrew. Why didn't he choose a wife for Hongjun as well? Shen Meizhuang thought, so that she wouldn't have to worry about this matter now.

Look at how much effort the late emperor put into choosing his wife and concubine. He was really... biased.

Moreover, Hongjun was really not serious about marrying a wife.

Said directly to Shen Meizhuang:

"This matter is not something that mother and son can decide. It all depends on what the emperor brother decides. Brother Hongyao will never choose a bad wife for me. It all depends on the emperor brother."

"I will marry whomever my brother chooses. In the folk, parents decide and matchmakers decide. In our palace, the emperor makes the final decision. Now that my father is gone, I will naturally listen to my brother."

Although Hongjun said this, he really did not care about the selection of his wife at all.

After all, in terms of talent and learning, there are few people in the world who can compare with him, not to mention talent. It is difficult to marry a wife that Hongjun admires, as there are not many people with whom he can have common topics.

There is also the appearance. Over the years, because of his good looks, Hongjun was teased by those clan members when he was in the study room. After being severely punished by Hongjun and Hongyao, those people finally restrained themselves.

But it can be seen how good-looking Hongjun is. Hongxi, Hongqing and Honghan are all good-looking, each with their own charm. But if we talk about the most handsome among these brothers, it must be Hongjun.

Even Shen Meizhuang felt that she had given birth to a beautiful child.

Several princesses joked privately that this mynah bird was more princess-like than the princesses.

Of course, they didn’t dare let Hongjun hear this, otherwise they would definitely be angry.

It seems that Hongjun might not necessarily like to marry a beautiful wife, because there would not be many who would be prettier than him.

Moreover, Shen Meizhuang thought about these princes, from Hongyao to Hongjun to Hongqing, and also thought of the younger ones, who all seemed to be not interested in love.

Hongjun had already gone to the court to receive his assignment. He had a very sharp tongue and whenever he was assigned to a department, he would find a lot of malpractices. He was not one to tolerate that and he did not care about the human relationships or the ways of the world. He directly wrote memorials to point out the problems one by one and even quarreled with those officials in the court.

He was not afraid of offending anyone at all and looked like a lone minister.
