In fact, the Empress Dowager also knew in her heart that Luo Qinghan had a very low chance of agreeing to this marriage.

But she just didn't give up and wanted to fight for the Lu family in the end.

At this time, Luo Qinghan refused mercilessly, and the empress could not hang on her face, and her expression was a bit ugly.

"Xinyao is the grand-niece of the Ai family, isn't she even worthy of a county king?"

Luo Qinghan said lightly: "The grandmother is serious, Miss Lu is virtuous and virtuous, and it's not a problem to be a queen, how can she not even be worthy of a mere prince?"

This is obviously sarcasm.

The Empress Dowager was told that she couldn't come down from the stage, and her expression became more and more gloomy: "Do you still want a military talisman?"

Luo Qinghan: "I told you a long time ago that you will give me a military talisman, and I will keep the Lu family safe. As for the rest, please forgive my grandson for not being able to agree."

Seeing his firm attitude, the Empress Dowager knew that there was no room for change in this matter, so she could only retreat.

"If Duke Chenliu can't do it, Li Qingyan, the minister of staff, can always do it, right?"

When the banquet was held in the palace at the beginning of the year, the Empress Dowager met Li Qingyan.

Although this person was born in a poor family, he was well-mannered and full of talents. He was the champion of the last imperial examination, and he was already a senior official of the fourth rank at a young age.

If this trend continues, he is likely to join the cabinet in the future and become a generation of famous ministers.

If you can marry Lu Xinyao to him, when he enters the cabinet to worship the prime minister in the future, the Lu family will surely follow suit.

Luo Qinghan: "Although Li Qingyan is not yet married, he has already made a marriage contract with someone, but he has not yet formally engaged. I can't be a good man."

The Empress Dowager frowned and looked at him suspiciously.

"Why didn't Aijia hear that Li Qingyan had a marriage contract?"

Luo Qinghan: "This is what Li Qingyan told me personally, and there will be no falsehood."

The Empress Dowager can only regret in her heart, it is a pity that such a good potential stock.

Luo Qinghan: "If the imperial grandmother wants to find a good home for Lu Xinyao, she might as well consider the young grandson of Duke Changjun."

Duke Changjun, like Duke Hongguo, were both foreign relatives.

The difference is that the relative of the Duke of Changjun is very loyal, and there is basically no trouble.

Duke Chang's father was Duke Chang, and after Duke Chang passed away, the eldest son inherited the title, and according to the rules, the title went down one rank, so he became Duke Chang.

Regardless of family background or age, Lu Xinyao is a good match for the young grandson of Duke Changjun.

The Empress Dowager was not very satisfied.

Even if they are relatives, there are differences.

When the predecessor Changguo Gong was still alive, the Chang Guogong family was still a bit shy, but since Chang Guogong disappeared, their family's status has also plummeted.

Now this Duke of Chang is a lump of wood. He can neither speak nor have any great skills. He is useless except for a title.

If this trend continues, after his son inherits the title, the title will have to fall.

Without three generations, the title will be lost.

At that time, their family can only be reduced to common people.

The Empress Dowager did not want the descendants of the Lu family to be ordinary people.

Seeing her unwillingness, Luo Qinghan didn't force her, and said lightly.

"If the imperial grandmother is dissatisfied with the young grandson of Duke Changjun, you can show Lu Xinyao another family. There are so many young talents in Shengjing, you can always find a suitable family if you look for it slowly."

The Empress Dowager: "If Ai's family chooses someone for Xinyao, will you help to marry him?"

Luo Qinghan: "As long as they are consensual, I am naturally willing to be an adult."

The Empress Dowager stopped talking about Lu Xinyao.

She reached out and touched the wide sleeves, and took out a small black cloth bag.

Unfold the black silk satin to reveal the metal inside.

It's another weapon!

When Luo Qinghan saw the soldier talisman, his eyes finally changed a little.

The Empress Dowager: "The military talisman is here, but you have to write the imperial edict first."

Luo Qinghan agreed happily: "Yes."

He asked people to prepare pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and wrote the imperial edict to forgive the Lu family on the spot.

The Empress Dowager looked at the content of the imperial edict and made sure that it was correct before handing over the military talisman.

Luo Qinghan took the soldier talisman, and then took out his own soldier talisman.

The two soldier talismans are next to each other, just to make up a pair of tigers.

The bumps in the middle fit very tightly.

At first glance, it looked as if they were supposed to be a single piece of talisman.

In fact, they were indeed cut from the same weapon.

Now that they are closed again, it means that all the military power of the Dasheng Dynasty has been gathered by Luo Qinghan.

He put the two military talismans into his sleeves, and his mood changed a little.

As long as he has military power, he can have a lot less scruples, which is of great help to what he wants to do next.

The Empress Dowager pointed to the imperial edict and reminded.

"You haven't stamped it with a jade seal."

Without the imperial decree stamped with the jade seal, even the emperor's own handwriting is useless.

Luo Qinghan wouldn't be a rascal for this matter.

He asked someone to bring the jade seal and stamp the imperial decree.

The Empress Dowager looked at the red seal in the lower right corner of the imperial decree, and the stone hanging in her heart could finally fall to the ground.

She finally didn't have to be the sinner of the Lu family.

After Luo Qinghan left Changle Palace, he went straight to the Council Hall.

...

After having breakfast, Xiao Xixi went back to the house to sleep.

However, she didn't sleep for long when Baoqin woke her up.

"Niangniang, don't sleep, Princess Ying should be here later."

Xiao Xixi opened her sleepy eyes, looked at the top of the bed, and was sluggish for a long time before she gradually recovered.

Yes, today she invited the Queen of England into the palace to enjoy flowers,

She couldn't sleep in any longer and could only struggle to get out of the bed.

Xiao Xixi sat in front of the dressing table, letting Zhezhi comb her hair and make up.

Baoqin asked while putting a bracelet on her wrist.

"Where is the maiden going to receive Princess Ying? Is it the Royal Garden? It's spring now, and the flowers in the Royal Garden are blooming just right, which is very suitable for viewing flowers."

Xiao Xixi yawned and said lazily, "Why do you have to go so far? I think the scenery in the backyard of Yunxiu Palace is very good. There are flowers, trees and rivers, not much worse than the Imperial Garden."

Baoqin: "..."

Yes, there are not only flowers, trees and rivers in the backyard, but also chickens, ducks, pigs and geese!

Baoqin asked with difficulty: "Are you serious?"

Xiao Xixi took it for granted.

"Seriously, of course! I think the backyard is very suitable for entertaining guests. Not only can you enjoy the scenery, you can also fish and pick fruits, and you can have a barbecue when you are hungry. How great!"

Baoqin was speechless, and could only resign and say, "Okay, you'll be happy."

Xiao Xixi not only invited Princess Ying, but also invited Concubine Li and Yao Jieyu.

The four of them went to the backyard of Yunxiu Palace together.

Looking at the lush vegetable garden in front of her, Bu Shengyan, Concubine Li, and Yao Jieyu's expressions were all a little subtle.
