Changsheng: Peak at the Beginning

Chapter 1136 Zhen Huan Enlarged to 62

Concubine Chen and Princess Chaogui acted quickly. On the third day, they shortlisted five candidates and reported them to Jiang Xinxin. "These are all young talents from prominent families, but marriage is an unpredictable matter, so the princess and I thought it would be better to choose two more and see."

Jiang Xinxin was very satisfied with the decisiveness of Concubine Chen and Princess Chaogui, and said to Concubine Chen: "These are all from families who are interested in marrying the princess. The princess is the youngest daughter of the late emperor, so this is not difficult at all."

Jiang Xinxin glanced at them casually. There were Ma Jia, Xilin Jueluo, Dong E, Yehenara, and Yiergen Jueluo. Jiang Xinxin was quite satisfied just by looking at the surnames. "Don't worry, noble lady. I will investigate these people in detail as soon as possible and will definitely not let the princess put her trust in the wrong people."

Mrs. Chen was even happier. She was also a woman, so how could she not know the importance of marriage to women? Jiang Xinxin was willing to carefully investigate the character of these people, and she could only be extremely grateful.

It was Da Pangju who hinted to Jiang Xinxin about choosing a consort for Princess Chaogui. Moge himself was waiting in the capital. He brought a large amount of gold and gems to ask for the princess' hand in marriage in exchange for a chance for Junggar to breathe. The Qing Dynasty was not willing to do so and just wanted to press on to win the victory.

So after Concubine Chen gave the candidates to Jiang Xinxin, Jiang Xinxin instructed Jiang Fuhai to find a way to investigate these people, and then went directly to the Palace of Tranquil Longevity.

"The noble lady and the princess have already decided on the candidate. I have asked Jiang Fuhai to investigate. I believe there will be a result in the next few days."

"Time is too short. Princess Chaogui is the late emperor's youngest daughter after all. Since we have already shown her kindness, we might as well do it well. Giving up halfway will only make things look bad."

Big Fat Orange glanced at the person at the top, Ma Jia, and said directly, "The Queen has worked hard, and there is no need to make Jiang Fuhai work hard. I have people who can do the job here."

Jiang Xinxin just found it funny: "It would be great if the emperor is willing to consider the princess, but Jiang Fuhai has already been ordered to leave the palace, so it doesn't hurt to let him go."

Men look at people from a different perspective than women, especially in such a highly centralized feudal society. Especially for an emperor, as long as the other person has talent and the emperor can trust him to employ him, the emperor will not care about other things.

But the one who was getting married was not the emperor, and he only wanted to use Princess Chaogui's marriage to benefit himself. Although this was not necessarily a conflict, it always ignored Princess Chaogui's wishes and her happiness in the second half of her life.

The emperor heard Jiang Xinxin's insistence. Although he felt uncomfortable because he was not trusted, he would not make things difficult for Jiang Xinxin because of such a small matter, so he changed the subject and talked about the Ulanara family. "I heard that the little princess of the Ulanara family has returned from Jiangnan. Does the queen want to meet her? She is also your own niece."

It took Jiang Xinxin a moment to realize that Big Fat Orange was probably talking about Qingying, the eldest daughter of the Nabul family who was adopted by Fei Yanggu, the biological father of Yixiu and Rouze.

But Jiang Xinxin didn't respond at all: "My biological son is gone, so why would Ulanara have any say? She's just an adopted niece, how can she compare with Hui'er."

Big Fat Orange was at a loss and could only wait until Jiang Xinxin left, then he took out something suitable from his private vault and gave it to Chunyuan's niece Qingying as a reward. After all, the two words "Chunyuan" in Nabul's letter made him feel soft-hearted towards the younger generation who was also well-read and had a temperament somewhat similar to Chunyuan.

If Jiang Xinxin didn't accept the challenge, Princess Qingying would not be able to get the honor of entering the palace. Even though Fatty Ju asked Nabul's wife and daughter to enter the palace to express her gratitude, Jiang Xinxin didn't let them stay for long. She just exchanged a few words and then sent them away.

At this time, Qingying was still a genuinely delicate little girl. She was not as awkward as the rumors said. She just felt a little aggrieved about being treated coldly by her aunt Jiang Xinxin. After returning home, she couldn't help but ask the reason.

"Mother, the people in the clan said that the Queen in the palace treated our clan members very harshly. I thought there might be some misunderstanding, but after today, I also feel that my aunt is really cold to my family. What is the reason for this?"

Nabul was a few years younger than Yixiu and Chunyuan, and the things that happened between Chunyuan and Yixiu could not be made public, so Nabul didn't know much, and his wife naturally didn't understand the ins and outs of it either.

But there is no need to pursue the details of some things. You can make some guesses just by looking at what happened.

Lady Nabul knew that the Queen Mother in the White House was still thinking about the fact that Rouze from the Ulanara clan had snatched her husband away and ignored the death of the eldest prince, but she couldn't explain all this to Qingying, who was a junior.

But she was also worried that Qingying would not know the seriousness of the matter and cause embarrassment, completely offending the nobles in the palace, so she could only avoid the issue and say, "Back then, the Empress was married to the Emperor as a concubine. The clan did not value the Emperor at that time, so they treated the Emperor with contempt, and it was also very common to treat the Empress."

Qingying was not a fool, and since things had come to this, she guessed that there might be something dirty going on between her two aunts, and that the Ulanara clan might have been involved, so she didn't ask any more questions, but just couldn't help sighing.

Lady Nabul loves her daughter dearly. Even though her daughter has been carefully brought up and has the best food, clothing and other necessities, there is a deeper calculation behind such efforts. Lady Ulanara still wants her daughter to regain the glory of the queen.

But these things could not be spoken out loud, so Lady Nabul could only smile and say, "Don't worry about these things, little girl. I told you today because I hope you can handle them properly when you are in the palace in the future, and don't let the Queen have a chance to freak out on us."

Qingying felt more and more that there must be a big secret between the two aunts. It was a pity that she didn't have any useful people around her and couldn't investigate those past events privately. She had always been a considerate and well-behaved daughter. When she heard this, she quickly acted coquettishly and expressed her opinion: "Mother, you really underestimated me. How could I be such an ignorant person?"

The atmosphere between Nabul and Qingying was very warm and joyful, but Jiang Xinxin was no longer in such a good mood after she sent them off. Her face darkened, and Jianqiu felt distressed. She quickly found something to distract her attention, "Madam, Jiang Fuhai has been away for several days. Is there any news?"

Jiang Xinxin certainly would not forget about Princess Chaogui's husband, and she also pulled herself together to deal with Jianqiu, "Not so fast, the news of those deep mansions is not that easy to find out."

Jianqiu was just looking for some random topic. After hearing what Jiang Xinxin said, she quickly stepped up her efforts: "Didn't Yangxin Palace say they would investigate it? The emperor has a lot of people at his disposal, so he should be able to find out information that we can't, right?"

Jiang Xinxin curled her lips in disdain: "What do these men know? They only consider a man as a good husband if he comes from a rich family and has some talent. What else can you expect from them?"

Jianqiu agreed with this and flattered Jiang Xinxin for her thoughtfulness, "Princess Chaogui is blessed with a sister-in-law like the queen to take care of her. Even if she can't marry a man of her dreams in the future, her life will definitely not be bad."
