A gentle, warm breeze wafted through the Bishui Pavilion, carrying with it the faint scent of spring from the newly sprouted greenery in the courtyard.
Consort Zhen’s delighted expression did not escape Xiao Wenxuan’s notice. He smiled and said, “However, don’t get too excited just yet. The Fei family is not an easy one to deal with. Prince Qi’s marriage will have to wait for some time.”
“As long as the consort is a daughter of the Fei family, it will be worth it even if Ming’er has to wait a few more years. But Your Majesty, please make sure to choose a good one from the Fei family for Ming’er.”
“Of course. At the very least, it must be a daughter from the main branch of the Fei family to be worthy of my son. Although Xiao Ming had many faults in the past, a prodigal son who returns is more valuable than gold. Now, he must be worthy of the Fei family.”
Consort Zhen nodded. “But Your Majesty, what about Empress Zhao…”
“You don’t need to worry about that. The Crown Prince’s consort is the daughter of the current Grand Chancellor, Fei Ji. If Prince Qi also marries a daughter of the Fei family, it will only strengthen the relationship. Empress Zhao won’t oppose it.”
“Then I can rest easy,” Consort Zhen said.
After discussing Xiao Ming’s marriage, Xiao Wenxuan changed the subject. “By the way, where is the glass that Prince Qi sent me?”
“It’s right here,” Consort Zhen led Xiao Wenxuan to an inner room, where a delicate wooden box contained nine crystal-clear glass goblets.
