Changsheng: Peak at the Beginning

Chapter 1170 Zhen Huan Enlarged to 94

The Fourth Prince was a little confused by Jiang Xinxin's words, but he listened to them carefully. However, he couldn't figure out whether marrying a princess with Aisin-Gioro ancestry would hinder his offspring.

Because his family background was not good and he had no support from his mother's family, the Fourth Prince wanted to choose a good wife from the beginning. Of course, there was no concealment or deception in what he said in Jingren Palace before. After all, he knew that there were many noble ladies who had set their sights on the position of the legitimate wife this time, and those who could stay would have powerful families.

So, it would probably be better if we could choose a princess with royal blood.

But what Jiang Xinxin said was never without purpose. After thinking it over, the Fourth Prince finally decided to listen to Jiang Xinxin. After all, he would marry her no matter who she was.

It was naturally very simple for the Fourth Prince to secretly investigate the origins of the concubines. He didn't even need to check deliberately. He just needed to say a few words, and the people below would naturally tell him the glory of the ancestors of the concubines he mentioned.

Thus, Fu Cha Langya, a beautiful girl from the Fu Cha clan and the daughter of Ma Qi's younger brother Li Rongbao, was the first to be eliminated just because Fu Cha's ancestor had married the princess of Emperor Taizong when he was outside the Great Wall.

Thinking of Fucha Langya, the Fourth Prince was slightly reluctant to give up, but he also had to consider the attitude of Jingren Palace, so he set his sights on the Guwaljia and Suolunzhuo families from outside the Great Wall.

Thanks to his father Big Fat Ju, the Fourth Prince was able to see a lot about the court situation even though he was only in charge of government affairs. He also knew that because his father had behaved like a bad person and offended many nobles, his father had to rely on Nian Gengyao, a military general from the Han Army Banner, for a long time.

If Jingren Palace had not stepped in to suppress Nian Gengyao and his sister Nian Shilan, there would probably still be no military generals from the upper three banners serving Big Fat Orange in the court.

As for why he chose a Manchu clan from outside the Great Wall, that was the Fourth Prince's own ingenuity.

In fact, although the land outside the Great Wall is colder and more hostile than the Central Plains, even if one has considerable power, it is out of reach. But this is just right for the bald Fourth Prince.

Fortunately, Fatty Ju himself has few children, and those who are now able to compete for the throne either have obvious defects or are not old enough. The Fourth Prince, who has become prominent, should keep a low profile, and the wife, who comes from a prominent family outside the Great Wall, is a very clear choice.

After all, although Big Fat Orange is old, he looks to be in good health, especially with the Emperor Shengzu who has reigned for sixty years above him. The Fourth Prince thinks that it will be no problem for his father to pass the age of sixty easily, so it would be better for him, the most competitive prince among the older princes, not to stand out so quickly.

In Jiangxuexuan, palace servants were coming and going, moving various things to arrange them. The final election of this temporary general election was scheduled to be held in Jiangxuexuan.

Like the Suiyuxuan not far away, the Jiangxuexuan has no rear hall, only left and right side halls and left and right side halls. However, because the Jiangxuexuan itself has an underground dragon, it is often chosen for small banquets in winter.

Choosing a wife for the princes is a big deal. Qingying was directly married to the third prince without going through a major election, which was a special case. Dapangju had not had anyone enter his harem for several years, so the selection of a wife this time was a crucial matter for many big families.

Jianqiu personally led people to clean up the Jiangxuexuan, just to make life a little easier for the concubines. After all, it was really inconvenient to go out in the winter. Moreover, Fatty Ju waved his hand and asked the wives of the royal family to come and join in the fun, so there were more issues to consider.

When the first snow fell, the Jiangxuexuan was filled with the warmth of spring. A group of female relatives were chatting and laughing, waiting for Big Fat Ju to release the Fourth Prince and the Fifth Prince. Only the participating beauties could not help but feel nervous.

Among the concubines of this session, the one with the highest status and position was Fucha Langya, the daughter of Li Rongbao of the Fucha clan who was from the Bordered Yellow Banner. Although Fucha clan did not say it explicitly, since Fucha Langya appeared here, many concubines felt that she was the most likely person to become the Fourth Lady, so some concubines with less powerful families could not help but surround Fucha Langya and show their courtesy to her.

Before she met Qingying, Fu Cha Langya was a very typical lady from a noble family. Although she was admired by many noble ladies, she couldn't help feeling proud, but she didn't show it on her face. Her words were sweet and she didn't show any arrogance at all, which made all the concubines and the palace servants who were observing secretly couldn't help but nod their heads repeatedly.

Prince Heng's wife has no children of her own, but at her age now, she no longer has the resentment and resentment she had when she was young. With the support of the Fourth Princess, she now has a large sum of money in her hands. Both her husband's family and her own family have to respect her. Her life is so happy.

When Prince Chun's wife was young, she had a good life with Prince Chun. However, she gradually lost her heart to the many concubines he favored. Now, she and Prince Chun treat each other with respect, and she has a filial son, and her life is going smoothly.

Even though the Ninth Prince's wife had the lowest rank, she only gave birth to two daughters. However, both of her daughters were very promising. Although they were married to Mongolia, they stayed in the capital, so she could see them every day and lived a good life.

The wife of Prince Ding was from the Fucha clan and was the biological daughter of Ma Qi, so even though she had no children and there were no children in Prince Ding's mansion, she still lived a good life.

Prince Yi's wife was already loved by the late emperor and had a very good relationship with her husband. It was a pity that her husband was gone now, and she was unable to witness the glory of Da Pangju's ascension to the throne. However, Da Pangju had arranged for her biological sons and illegitimate sons in the mansion. Now everyone had a title and something to do, so her life was the smoothest.

Although the remaining few young wives were elders of the Fourth Prince and the Fifth Prince, they had only married into the royal family not long ago. At this moment, they only dared to pick up some safe topics and agree with a few words. They did not dare to speak out, and they did not even dare to easily join in the conversation when commenting on the concubines.

After waiting for a long time and having served all the food and drinks, a palace servant finally reported that the Fourth Prince and the Fifth Prince had arrived.

Jiang Xinxin, the legitimate mother, quickly called Jianqiu to ask the concubines to come over. After a while, more than ten concubines from famous Manchu families lined up in two rows in the main hall of Jiangxuexuan. It happened that the fourth and fifth princes came together. After the two of them greeted each other, Jiang Xinxin directly greeted them: "The girls here are all from famous families. They are more than qualified to be your legitimate wives. You two brothers can choose who you like and give them the jade ruyi."

The two brothers responded in unison. The Fourth Prince directly picked up the jade ruyi that Jianqiu brought, but the Fifth Prince did not move, which made the Fourth Prince look at him sideways.

The Fifth Prince winked and explained, "Fourth Brother, please choose quickly. I like pretty girls and I have already picked one. Unfortunately, she hasn't come out yet."

Before the Fourth Prince had time to think, he was pushed in front of the concubines by the Fifth Prince. Fu Cha Langya stood in the middle of the first row, and on her left and right were the women he favored, Guaerjia and Suolun Zhuo.

Guaerjia's hometown is outside the Great Wall, and her family has hereditary titles and positions. Her father is now the Governor of Fujian. Suolunzhuo's hometown is also outside the Great Wall, and her family also has hereditary titles and positions. Her father is now the Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi.

The Fourth Prince had his own aesthetic preferences, so he chose the extremely beautiful Suo Lun Zhuo. He smiled and handed the jade ruyi in his hand to Suo Lun Zhuo, which made Suo Lun Zhuo very surprised, but made Fu Cha Langya feel very embarrassed and ashamed, and she couldn't help but redden her eyes.
