Chapter 575 Proposal
"That's good, then you have to tell me what kind of person you want to find, and then I can follow your instructions and find him." Xia Zihan mentioned her search for a man again.
Si Cao blushed for a long time, but she didn't have the nerve to say anything. Finally, she said delicately and softly, "As long as you have a good character."
Appearance, height, etc. are all external conditions. What she values is internal.
"Also, parents should be kind." After getting married, she didn't want to be angry with her mother-in-law. At that time, she heard that the princess's biological mother died because of her mother-in-law's abuse.
Xia Zihan wrote down the two conditions she mentioned.
After eating barbecue on the mountain, a group of people returned to the guest house of Xiangguo Temple.
As soon as he entered the house, a man in black came to Chu Jingqi and reported something in a low voice.
"On the first day of the Lunar New Year, when Prince Ping and Princess Zhengna entered the palace to worship their ancestors, for some unknown reason, they got into a fight and almost injured the Queen Mother. The emperor angrily ordered Prince Ping to be beaten twenty times while they were worshiping their ancestors. Under the rooftop, in front of hundreds of people in the Ao family.”
At that time, Prince Ping was beaten to the point of dying. He did not even participate in the ancestor worship, so he was carried back to Princess Ping by the palace guards.
Princess Zhengna was also fined and sentenced to one month of confinement.
When Princess Zhengna saw Prince Ping being beaten, she was afraid that the emperor would also beat her, so she brazenly said that the emperor had deceived her, deceived the envoys of the Japanese country, and gave her a marriage to a child, which had wasted her life.
When the emperor heard this, he was so angry that he even wanted to beat her twenty times.
It was the queen who begged for Princess Zhengna, saying, "Princess Zhengna is a delicate girl, twenty years old. How can her body and bones bear it? Today is the first day of the first lunar month and the first day of the new year. It is better not to see blood." ”
In the end, Princess Zhengna was only punished for copying the female ring five hundred times.
"Haha, it seems that these days are going on in Prince Ping's Mansion."
In the evening, Chu Jingqi hugged Xia Zihan and gloated.
Xia Zihan looked up at him, "Prince Ping and his wife are quarreling, are you happy?"
"Hmph." Chu Jingqi said with a look of resentment, "At the beginning, if she hadn't been shameless and insisted on me driving the car for her, could I have misunderstood you?"
It was almost because of this that his Ayu didn't want him.
He hated Princess Zhengna to the extreme.
It's just a pity that Princess Zhengna was a marriage princess sent by the Japanese country, so he couldn't kill her directly.
Xia Zihan looked ashamed and regretful, "That matter is over, don't mention it again in the future." In order not to remind her how stupid she was at that time, she wanted to break off the engagement with him because of impulse, and almost lost the man she loved deeply. , and sent it to other women’s bowls.
If that were the case, then she would have to hate herself to death.
After only staying in Xiangguo Temple for two days, Xia Zihan hurried back to Prince Anjun's Mansion.
As soon as he entered the gate of the palace and before he could enter Yuqiongyuan, Xia Zihan ordered Ma Bao to make a list of the names and conditions of the unengaged teenagers in the palace.
In the evening, holding this list, Xia Zihan and Chu Jingqi put their heads together and read the names one by one. In the end, Chu Jingqi only chose one candidate, which was Manager Zhang's son.
Manager Zhang has two sons. The one on the list is the eldest son. He is only 18 years old this year, three years younger than Si Cao. But he is steady and cautious. He looks talented and has good character. He is currently with his father. Learn to take charge.
If he hadn't been busy in the past two years, his mother would have engaged him long ago. Chu Jingqi said, "I heard from my father that Zhang Youxin is a good person, and he is praised by my father for his work and speech. After two years, Zhang Youxin will be older, and my father will promote him to deputy manager."< br>
He became the deputy steward at the age of twenty, and the entire Chu family was not there yet.
It seems that this person's ability is indeed good.
As for the rest of the list...
Chu Jingqi said, "I don't know any of the other servants. In my opinion, your maids are not suitable at all to match the servants. Don't go to the house to find them, just find them from under the fox." A few.”
Looking for a secret guard?
Xia Zihan said awkwardly, "Can a secret guard marry a wife?"
"Why not? The children they give birth to will be natural secret guards in the future. I also thought that instead of going out to find children and raising them, which would be so troublesome, I would just let the secret guards marry and have children, and give us a group of domestic secret guards. Come and let their father train them from an early age. In this way, our Chu family’s secret guards will develop faster.”
Then he added, "It just so happens that you have more than a hundred female killers under your command. After two years, when they are older, let them serve as secret guards."
The corner of Xia Zihan's mouth twitched, and when she looked at Chu Jingqi, her eyes became strange, "Tell me, have you been trying to distract the girls under me for a long time?"
"No way, I only thought so inadvertently because of Ma Baosheng's marriage. Besides, the secret guards are just like the soldiers under me, they are all people who hang their heads on their belts. The soldiers can get married, why can’t the secret guards?”
Well, that's right and makes sense.
Xia Zihan thought about it carefully and had no objection.
The next day, Chu Jingqi found Zhang Youxin and asked Xia Zihan to meet him.
Zhang Youxin is good-looking, not very handsome, but he has good features and looks talented. His face has a faint smile even if the sky falls, and no one can tell what he is thinking.
Xia Zihan immediately commented with two words, ‘fox’.
This person must be a fox, or a cunning fox. However, if he is really a capable person, she feels that she will not wrong Silk Cao by betrothing him to him.
Xia Zihan asked Zhang Youxin a few questions at random, and Zhang Youxin answered them respectfully, neither arrogant nor humble, with a calm expression.
Xia Zihan became more and more pleasing to the eye.
After sending Zhang Youxin away, she asked Silk Grass, who had been waiting for tea and glanced at Zhang Youxin several times, "How is this guy? Are you willing?"
Si Cao's pretty face suddenly became red. She shyly blessed her body and said, "It's all up to the princess to decide."
Xia Zihan was very happy, smiled and nodded, "Okay, then I will tell the prince and ask him to talk to Manager Zhang."
But Si Cao insisted that her wedding would be scheduled for the twelfth lunar month of this year. There was still a year left, so Xia Zihan was not in a hurry.
In the afternoon of the next day, Chu Jingqi went to see Manager Zhang and told him Xia Zihan's intention to betroth the silk grass to Zhang Youxin.
Manager Zhang was shocked.
I heard that the maids around the eldest young lady are not only beautiful, hard-working, capable, and charming, but also have good kung fu skills.
