The cannon fodder just wants to survive until the end

Afterwards, the seventh prince looked like someone who did not want to fight for the throne, and there was almost no ambition in his eyes.

Finally, the Seventh Prince is quite capable. As long as he does not get involved in the fight for that position, he will at least be a prince in the future.

Ming Huaixi thought about it and the more she looked at Yang Xiuyuan, the more she liked him. She felt that he was tailor-made for her. Except for the fact that he looked a little too delicate, everything else was exactly what she wanted.

"Okay, marry me." Ming Huaixi thought it through and didn't hesitate. She agreed directly and finally chose him.

Yang Xiuyuan felt relieved. "Then I will take you to see my mother some other day, okay?"

Ming Huaixi had some difficulty hearing this sentence, "You can, but only after the marriage is granted."

"it is good."

"Your Highness the Seventh Prince."

"You can call me by my name. This is my courtesy name." Yang Xiuyuan felt that calling him the Seventh Prince was too unfamiliar, so without waiting for Ming Huaixi to finish, he stuttered and told Ming Huaixi his courtesy name.

"Okay, well, Lingzhi, when will your oral disease recover? You can't keep it like this forever, right?"

"Once we are more familiar with each other, everything will be fine."

"Is that so? Then I hope we can get to know each other soon."

After staying on the seventh floor of Wangque Tower for a while, Yang Xiuyuan took Ming Huaixi to a restaurant for dinner. Well... it was the same restaurant that the third prince took Ming Huaixi to last time, the most famous restaurant in the imperial capital of Zhao State, the Zhuangyuan Restaurant.

This restaurant was indeed opened by the family of a former top scholar. It was not called the Top Scholar Restaurant in the past, but Laotie Restaurant. It was not originally the most famous restaurant in the capital of Zhao State. Ever since the boss's son passed the imperial examination and became the top scholar, the boss changed the name to the Top Scholar Restaurant, and it became famous in an instant.

In addition, the number one scholar also married the daughter of the prime minister of the dynasty. The number one scholar's wife was a good housekeeper and hired two imperial chefs from the palace. The food in the number one scholar's restaurant was not bad to begin with, and now it was even better.

The wife of the No. 1 scholar also changed the decoration of the No. 1 Scholar Restaurant, dividing it into different areas for people to dine. So no matter whether they were common people with a little money or the dignitaries of the State of Zhao, they all liked to dine at the No. 1 Scholar Restaurant.

Ming Huaixi thought the food tasted good the last time he went there, but unfortunately the Zhuangyuan Restaurant was quite busy, so they usually couldn't make take-out meals. They could only pack up what they couldn't finish in the restaurant. This made Ming Huaixi a little distressed, especially since the dishes Ming Huaixi liked had to be reserved exclusively in the restaurant. Ming Huaixi had asked someone to try it before, but the customer couldn't get in line.

Now, they can have a delicious meal again, which makes Ming Huaixi even more satisfied with Yang Xiuyuan.

After Ming Huaixi returned to the post station, he received a letter from Jingguo.

Although most of Ming Huaixi's dowry team were selected by the old Marquis of Xinyang, some were arranged by the old emperor. When they first arrived in Zhao State, those people sent a message to the old emperor to explain the situation. Ming Huaixi felt there was no need to stop them, so he ignored it.

Ming Huaixi held the letter, still wondering what his father would say? Oh, Emperor Zhaoming wanted her to choose a prince to marry, would his father want to interfere?

Facts have proved that Ming Huaixi guessed correctly. Emperor Sheng Yuan really wanted to get involved in this matter. As the emperor of a country, Emperor Sheng Yuan naturally had to understand the situation of friendly countries.

Emperor Sheng Yuan clearly stated in the letter that he wanted Ming Huaixi to marry the fourth prince, saying that she came from a noble family and would be most likely to ascend to the throne, which would be beneficial for the future alliance between the two countries.

Ming Huaixi almost laughed after reading the letter. The State of Zhao was in its heyday. Let's not talk about whether the Fourth Prince could ascend to the throne. Even if the Fourth Prince finally ascended the throne, would the king of a country affect his attitude towards another country for the sake of a woman?

In Ming Huaixi's opinion, Emperor Sheng Yuan was just talking big and giving blind orders. Although the two countries were allies, it did not mean that the allies could interfere in each other's political affairs.

Ming Huaixi burned the letter after reading it. It was a useless thing and would only make him upset if he kept it. It would be better if it didn't exist.

Ming Huaixi would never listen to Emperor Sheng Yuan. In less than two years, the person in charge of Jingguo would be replaced. The emperor was far away and nothing could happen to her if he didn't listen. Anyway, she had already gotten all the benefits she deserved and didn't need to continue to please Emperor Sheng Yuan.

After that, the other princes would still come to see Ming Huaixi occasionally, but Ming Huaixi rejected the invitation from all others except the seventh prince. He had made up his mind and there was no need to get involved with them. It was better to keep some distance.

A month passed quickly, and soon it was the date given by Emperor Zhaoming. Ming Huaixi entered the palace with the eunuchs.

It just so happened that the princes were there too.

When they saw Ming Huaixi coming, they all greeted her. Now everyone knew who Ming Huaixi was going to choose, and she just came to the palace for a formality.

Afterwards, Emperor Zhaoming asked Ming Huaixi who he chose. When Ming Huaixi chose the seventh prince, Emperor Zhaoming showed a look of satisfaction, and it was obvious that he was very satisfied with Ming Huaixi's choice.

Afterwards, Emperor Zhaoming issued an edict to grant her marriage to Yang Xiuyuan, and the wedding date was in the following year. The Seventh Prince still had several older brothers who were not married, and these few months were used for them to choose prince consorts to marry.

In fact, if it weren't for the princess who was to be married off, the mothers of those princes would have already identified several suitable candidates for them, and would have arranged the positions for them once the matter was over.

The marriage of the Third Prince was also planned by his supportive counselors, who were determined to make the best use of his marriage and choose for him a wife from a family that could best help him.

After Ming Huaixi was married to Yang Xiuyuan by Emperor Zhaoming, Yang Xiuyuan found an opportunity to take her to meet his mother.

Yang Xiuyuan's mother was the child of Emperor Zhaoming's teacher, and could be considered his junior sister. However, the Grand Tutor retired due to his advanced age a few years after his daughter entered the palace.

Emperor Zhaoming respected this imperial tutor very much and tried to retain him many times when he was about to retire, but he and the tutor both knew that only his retirement was the best option.

Yang Xiuyuan's mother's surname is Wang. Now both of Yang Xiuyuan's uncles have been sent to work in the capital, and they can be regarded as Emperor Zhaoming's confidants.

Yang Xiuyuan had never been interested in the affairs of the court since he was a child. Emperor Zhaoming also had some sincere feelings for Yang Xiuyuan's mother. After Yang Xiuyuan was born, he looked very much like his mother. Emperor Zhaoming doted on him very much and wanted to give fatherly love to this youngest son who was destined to become a prince. He was usually very nice to Yang Xiuyuan.

The other princes seemed to have known that Yang Xiuyuan would not compete with them for the throne, and they were all willing to give him the care of an elder brother. Generally speaking, Yang Xiuyuan's life would not be difficult now or in the future.

Ming Huaixi was stunned at the first sight of Yang Xiuyuan's mother. No wonder Yang Xiuyuan looked so delicate, it turned out that his mother was even more beautiful. Yang Xiuyuan was a little inferior to other mothers. It seemed that it was a problem of his father's genes.

Ming Huaixi now firmly believed in a saying: It doesn't matter if you find an ugly man, what matters is that you have a 50% chance of giving birth to an ugly man in the next generation, which is terrible.
