Chapter 82: Calculation

Xiao Yaya went to Huo Mansion to go to the invitation of the little sisters, and the other two were also there, both with sad faces, if there was no accident, the four of them would enter the palace as concubines, but Xiao Yaya knew that her father had agreed to marry the Shen family last night, so her ease was very eye-catching.

"Why are you still so happy?" Huo Mengxuan said, which Huaichun girl doesn't want to find a good Langjun, His Majesty is naturally a good Langjun, but this good Langjun can't be alone alone, and I panic when I think about it.

"You all saw the behavior of the concubine yesterday, and we don't know what the situation will be when we enter the palace. ”

"What's the use of worrying. Xian Yiqiu said, "It's as if we can make our own decisions." ”

"It's not just us who will enter the palace this time, that Alyssa will also enter the palace. "Don't talk about how to fight after entering the palace, you have to fight with your own people first.

"Those of them went in to be palace maids, and with our identity, entering the palace has already acquiesced in our identity. Bai Honghua said, "Why bother yourself." ”

"What is our identity?" Xiao Yaya said, "No matter how noble our status is, can we still honor the royal family?"

Huo Mengxuan sighed, "If you want me to say, there is no home at home." ”

"You said, His Majesty the Emperor is staying well in the capital, why did he come to Sanyang Pass. ”

This is a bit of a statement, after all, after the news that His Majesty will come over a year ago, the entire Sanyang Pass was overjoyed, and she was also full of expectations, and now she felt that the emperor would take them away when he came, and she felt that it would be good if she didn't come.

"Actually, I can't say for sure. Xiao Yaya said, although her mother told her not to say it outside, she still couldn't help it, "There are so many people who go to Northern Xinjiang, be concubines, be palace maids, and may be married to others by His Majesty." ”

"Impossible. Xian Yiqiu said, "The people in the capital pay attention to the right people, we are the number one person in northern Xinjiang, and in the eyes of the people in the capital, they are all border barbarians." ”

"Yaya, your brother is very useful in front of His Majesty, when your mother goes to the palace to greet your mother, can you let her take you in, even if you are familiar with your mother a few times. Shi Honghua asked

, it would be better if your mother could take care of it.

"Why don't you ask your mother to take you. Xiao Yaya said, "My aunt doesn't have that face." ”

"I just kindly said, why are you like this. Shi Honghua was a little aggrieved, "When the time comes, we will enter Beijing together and take care of each other." ”

Xian Yiqiu persuaded her to leave, the two were isolated, Huo Mengxuan said to Xiao Yaya, "She is right, she left home and went to the capital in the future, we went out in one place, and we should be in the same breath and take care of each other." ”

"I can't get used to her flattery. Xiao Yaya said, "When I was playing polo, I deliberately assigned her to the concubine's team, otherwise I would have played three." ”

"There's nothing wrong with her wanting to have a better life. Huo Mengxuan said. "Don't target her in the future, don't let others see our jokes. ”

"She'll forget it. Xiao Yaya said worriedly, "That Alyssa is also going to Beijing with us, she is also a person with looks and means, I'm afraid she will be your rival." ”

"She's not the only rival. ”

"In the future, we will be the enemy step by step. ”

The doorman of the Xiao family went to the village where the Xiyue people lived and said to the village chief, "Your Alyssa has been selected as a show girl, this is a dowry, you are ready to prepare, and you will send her to the Taishou Mansion tomorrow." ”

The dowry of the show girl is the same in the north and south, it is ten taels of silver, which can be regarded as a formality.

The village chief was overjoyed with the ten taels of silver, and personally sent it to his brother's house, "It's all right." ”

Alyssa was originally helping Grandma sort the wool thread, but when she heard this, she threw down her things, turned around and went into the back room, and Grandma looked at her worriedly.

Asked her uncle, "What is the name of the person who went in?"

"Show girl. The uncle said, "Not only her, but also the girls of the Xiao family, the Huo family, and the Xian family are all in the name of the show girl, and when they go to the palace, they will be divided." ”

"Doesn't that mean that our Alyssa may not necessarily become the emperor's concubine, but may also become the palace maid?" said Grandma worriedly.

"Alyssa didn't go into the show girl by herself, it was His Majesty who asked her by name, didn't you see, today the people of the Xiao family are polite to me, not like they used to look at people, they are definitely better informed than us. ”

"When Alyssa enters the palace and becomes a concubine, I will ask the pavilion chief and ask him to allocate a piece of land to us, so that we don't have to rent other people's land again. The uncle said, "Don't worry, when the time comes, I will leave the fattest and largest piece for your family." ”

Alyssa's parents were not good-looking, and the uncle sighed after being silent, "The clansmen will always remember Alyssa's kindness." ”

Grandma went into the back room and rummaged through the cabinets for a while, and then took out a cloth bag, "Alyssa, these are the dowries that Grandma has saved for you over the years, I originally wanted to wait until you said someone else and then take it to make jewelry, but now it's too late, you put it on your body and use it on the way to Beijing." ”

Inside the cloth bag were some silver nuggets and precious stones, some new and some old, and it looked like it had taken a lot of time.

"I don't want to. Alyssa said, "I don't have much money at home, I took these away, what are you going to do?"

"These are prepared by you, and no matter how poor my family is, I have never taken them out. Grandma said, she touched Alyssa's face, "My daughter was born so well, like a fairy in the sky, Grandma is proud and worried, after all." ”

"Hey, don't talk about bad things. ”

"I thought you would marry a big family in Sanyangguan, but I didn't expect you to have such luck to marry into the palace and be the emperor's concubine. ”

"Grandma, I don't want to be the emperor's concubine. Alyssa said sadly. "I just want to live a happy life with the people I love. ”

"Even if it's a little harder, it doesn't hurt. ”

"Do you think that Grandma wants you to marry a big family, or the emperor, because she is greedy for their financial resources?" Grandma shook her head and said, "Your beauty is your merit, but it is fragile, unable to protect itself, and even brings disaster to the people around you." ”

"I know that whether it is a big family or an emperor, they can protect you well. ”

"And Huck, I can't protect you. ”

"He can't even convince his mother to take you away. ”

"Grandma. Alyssa looked at her in horror, how could Grandma know.

"I'm not a noble person, why should my daughter risk her life for the future of the whole clan and marry so far away. "If Huck takes you away, I won't say anything." ”

But he has been locked up in the house by his grandmother so far. ”

"If you don't go to the palace and stay here, the next time the nobles in Sanyang Pass take a fancy to you, can you still count on Huck?"

"Grandma. Alyssa threw herself into her grandma's arms, "Why, why me." ”

After Qin Yunyi went back, he was angry with Qi Zongwen for several days, and he ignored it, Qi Zongwen was not annoyed, he came over to coax and persuade him, and he attached the small and made it low, which also had a unique flavor.

"Mother, you're still angry. Myoyoshi brushed her hair and said, "Seeing that we are all going back." ”

"Let's make peace today. Qin Yunyi looked at the mirror and said, "Your Majesty said that he wanted to take me to run the horse yet, but I haven't gone yet, I have to run away and go back, otherwise I won't regret going out this time." ”

"Niangniang is not really angry with His Majesty at all. Miao An smiled and said, "Niangniang did it on purpose." ”

Qin Yunyi only smiled silently, and Miao Ji's eyes widened, "Really, that Niangniang pretended to be too similar, and the slave really thought that Niangniang was angry with His Majesty, and she was very worried." ”

"I'm not angry, it's time for Your Majesty to be angry, I'm wearing a dress like that, and I'm bold in real numbers. Qin Yunyi said, "So I don't go out these days, I don't see guests, and I don't have to talk to me outside." ”

"Niang Niang is really a good trick. Miao An said, "The show girls have already gone to the Taishou Mansion, there are fifty of them, and Concubine Song and the grandmothers around the concubines have gone to explain the rules to the show girls." ”

"Mr. Han asked the slave to go, and the slave said that she didn't have time to serve the mother. ”

"If you don't go, you should know that you don't know anything less. Qin Yunyi said with a smile.

"The one in there, Alyssa, is really good-looking. Miao An said, "It's only a little worse than Niangniang." ”

"How nice that has to be. Miaoji said in surprise.

"You'll see it on the way back. ”

Qin Yunyi said when Qi Zongwen came over that His Majesty said that he would take me to run a horse, and he was about to return to Beijing, when would he take me.

"You can go whenever you want. Qi Zongwen said, "I'll let people arrange it now, how about going in the afternoon?"

Qin Yunyi nodded.

Qi Zongwen beckoned her to come over and sat down with her in his arms, "I was reckless that day, I didn't want to humiliate you, don't be angry with me anymore, okay?"

Qin Yunyi moved his body, not to break free from him, but to adjust a more comfortable position for himself, "Actually, I'm not angry with Your Majesty, I'm just a little ashamed." ”

"That's outside, it's mixed, and if it spreads, it won't be good for Your Majesty's reputation. ”

"If it's in the palace, whatever your majesty does. Qin Yunyi leaned against him and said, "I can do it all." ”

"It's all bad for me. Qi Zongwen said, "It will never be the case next time." ”

"But you must also promise me that you will not dress like that in front of people in the future. Qi Zongwen said, "It's okay in private." ”

"Hmm. ”

Qi Zongwen wanted to take Qin Yunyi to run a horse, but he didn't bring many people, only a few guards followed not far away, and the two of them indulged in horseback riding, in the endless grassland.

Xiao Ye looked at the two figures who were far away and asked the people around him, "Is Niangniang a tiger girl who is very accomplished in horsemanship?" ”

"Before her father didn't commit an accident, he was a first-class Qingliu family. Others said, "I can't get anything to do with the generals." ”

"Committing a crime?" Xiao Ye asked, "What did you do?"

The others were preparing to gossip, and then after seeing Xiao Ye's face, they came to their senses in time, and after coughing twice, they said, "No matter what you do, it won't affect the identity of the mother." ”

"I'm just a little curious. Xiao Ye didn't ask strongly, but said with a smile, "According to Your Majesty's love for Niangniang, what is wrong cannot be lightly revealed." ”

Qi Zongwen took Qin Yunyi until he ran to a beacon castle where he could see in the distance before stopping, and he pointed at it with a horsewhip, "Do you know what those houses are for?"

Qin Yunyi shook his head.

"When the Yi people come to attack, the Beacon Fort will burn wolf smoke and report the military situation. Qi Zongwen said, "Most of the Yi people are in early winter, and when they don't catch spring and summer, they run away after grabbing, which is very scoundrel." ”

"Is there nothing General Shen can do about them?" Qin Yunyi asked.

"It's all the result of Xu Zan's connivance in the past, and the small criminals don't pay attention to it at all, let's fight, make a big fuss, their horses are fast, and they may not be able to catch up, don't fight, it's really disgusting. Qi Zongwen said, "Unless you clean them up hard, you will remember it for a long time when you know that it hurts." ”

"The relationship between the Central Plains and the Yi people has been like this for thousands of years, the Yi people are vigorous, that is, the court and the pro-cut land, the court is prosperous, and the Yi people are called ministers and tributes, and so on and so on after recuperation. ”

"The Central Plains can't look down on the barren land of the Yi people, the Yi people have no fixed place, only people, everything can be abandoned, naturally the barefoot are not afraid of wearing shoes. Qin Yunyi said.

"yes. Qi Zongwen sighed and said, "It's the Han Wu, what if you reach the depths of the Yi tribe, the court can't manage it so hard, and there are more people in the Yi tribe, and they fight back, over and over again." ”

"If they were allowed to live in peace, they might not be so competitive. Qin Yunyi said whimsically, "The bitter cold outside the plug makes people have to be strong-willed, if the outside of the plug is like Jiangnan, naturally they only know the wind and snow." ”

"You're thinking simple. Qi Zongwen said, "It's hard to fill the cravine, no matter how good it is, it can't compare to Jiangnan." ”

"However, Shen Qing mentioned to me that he had gone through the county records of the past years, and during the years when the border trade was opened, there was little military, so he suggested that I reopen the border trade. ”

"Your Majesty already has hills and valleys in his heart. Qin Yunyi said with a smile in affirmation.

Qi Zongwen tilted his head and smiled at her, "After Shen Qing returns to Beijing, I will ask the successor General Zhenbei to set up a trap to clean up the Yi clan, and then we will talk about border trade." ”

"Your Majesty, Mingjun, is a blessing to the subjects of the world. Qin Yunyi said.

He didn't ask why he didn't take action while Shen Qing was there.

Your Majesty also has things that you don't want to say too clearly.
