Chapter 139: Giving the Sachet
Lin Baiyu closed her eyes and rested, and the rest of the show girls were divided into several small groups according to their relationship, and they gathered together and whispered, and only she and Lin Baishu were alone. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Lin Baishu has been buried by the jealousy and resentment of all the show girls, but she herself can't feel it, sitting by the window of the warm pavilion with a smile, looking at the scenery of flowers blooming outside the window, full of confidence.
After waiting for about an hour, it was finally Lin Baiyu's turn and the others. Because they came out of the same family, Lin Baiyu, Lin Baishu, Lin Baichan and Lin Baiwan were called into the main hall by the same batch, and there were other noble daughters with them.
Lin Baishu and Lin Baiyu are dressed solemnly, even if they don't care about the imperial power in their hearts, but they can't show it at this time, they must be cautious, otherwise they will bring trouble to the Lin family.
The five people were taken to the center of the main hall, and instead of the eunuch shouting out their identities or anything like that, the five people reported their names and identities one by one from left to right.
"Lin Baishu, the eldest daughter of the Marquis of Baoling, knocked to see the emperor, the crown prince, and the crown princess. Long live the emperor, long live, long live, long live, the crown prince is a thousand years old, and the mother is a thousand years old. ”
"Lin Baiyu, the second daughter of the Marquis of Baoling, knocked to see the emperor, the crown prince, and the crown princess. Long live the emperor, long live, long live, long live, the crown prince is a thousand years old, and the mother is a thousand years old. ”
"Lin Baichan, the third daughter of the Marquis of Baoling, knocked to see the emperor, the crown prince, and the crown princess. Long live the emperor, long live, long live, long live, the crown prince is a thousand years old, and the mother is a thousand years old. ”
“……”
After kowtowing, the five people were called, but they didn't dare to raise their heads, so they could only hang their heads and wait for the questioning of the superior.
"Lin Baishu. ”
Lin Baiyu heard the voice of an old man, needless to say, it must be the emperor. This emperor is now in his sixtieth year, and it is said that he has rarely been in the harem in recent years.
"The courtiers are here. Lin Baishu stepped forward.
"Which Shu is it?" This was a woman's voice, and Lin Baiyu judged that it should be the crown princess.
"Back to the crown princess, it is the 'Shu' of 'Shuige Xunfeng to Wan Shu, a total of red and green'. Lin Baishu replied.
"Shuige Xunfeng to Wan Shu, a total of red and green? This is that poem? Why haven't you heard of it?" asked the prince suspiciously.
Lin Baishu is a card, lying in a groove, too carried away, forgetting that this sentence comes from Cao Xun's "Eight Tone Harmony? Lotus Appreciation, Synthesized with Eight Songs, Hence the Name", David is not in the Song Dynasty, and there is no Cao Xun here.
Lin Baishu hurriedly said: "This sentence is one of the words filled in by the courtiers when they were watching the lotus flowers in the garden just now. ”
"Oh, what's the whole word? The prince asked. In my heart, I thought that this woman really took the opportunity to show herself, but what was her purpose?
Lin Baishu opened her lips and recited in a frustrated manner: "Fangjing to Hengtang, the official willow is overcast, and the rain is new. Looking at the lotus root flowers, reflecting the smoke and sand. Bo Jingcui spreads the glass, like standing, fluttering on the river. Get the color, the fresh makeup is shining, and the fragrance is submerged. The water pavilion is full of red and green, and the flowers are deep. Move the first opening, smell the golden tassel and keep it. Take advantage of the time to enjoy the poolside, the prognosis is about to be about the light clouds, and the light clouds are low. If you don't drink it and rely on it, you will be full, and the lotus pearl dew. ”
"Good. What a song to appreciate the river. The emperor praised, "She is worthy of being the first talented woman in the David Dynasty." ”
The prince pouted when he heard this, and he wanted to remind the emperor that there was no lotus pond outside the Spring Palace at all, where did Lin Baishu just see the lotus flower to write such a poem?
The crown princess also nodded in praise and said softly: "Yes, give the sachet." ”
The draft of the David Dynasty is somewhat similar to that of the Qing Dynasty, if the show girl is selected, it is "giving a sachet", which means leaving a brand; However, the David's sign does not mean that the show girl was left in the harem, but that the show girl's marriage will be arranged by the royal family, and whether she is killed in the harem or married to the clan will be notified after returning home.
The crown princess's voice sounded again: "Lin Baiyu." ”
Lin Baiyu stepped forward: "The courtiers are here." ”
The prince spoke: "Raise your head. ”
Lin Baiyu raised her head slowly, and a delicate little face appeared in the eyes of the three giants, and Lin Baiyu also took the opportunity to see the three giants clearly.
The emperor was sitting in a yellow robe, his appearance was a few years younger than his actual age, his beard and hair were already gray, if he took off a dragon robe, he would have nothing to do with a modern old man. The crown prince sitting on the left side is also wearing a yellow dragon robe, about forty years old, and looks three points like the emperor; on the right is the crown princess, much better maintained than the prince and the emperor, looking no more than thirty years old, dignified and beautiful, with kind eyebrows.
"Your name is Lin Baiyu, but the 'Yu' of 'Yu Xinhui Wan Pin'?" the crown princess asked softly.
Lin Baiyu responded: "Hui Niangniang, it is this word 'Yu'. ”
The prince said with satisfaction: "Sure enough, Hui has a blue heart." Not bad. ”
He turned his head to the emperor and said, "Father, it's her." ”
The emperor glanced at Lin Baiyu seriously and nodded with satisfaction: "Give the sachet." ”
What? Give the sachet? Wrong, right? Shouldn't we give her flowers? Their Lin family already has a person who has obtained the sachet. And what did the words of those three people mean just now? The more Lin Baiyu thought about it, the more she felt that it was not good. It seemed like something was about to happen that she didn't know and couldn't control.
Next, Lin Baichan and Lin Baiwan were given flowers. Lin Baichan's face was male, but Lin Baiwan was very happy, she didn't want to join the royal family and the clan at all, with her father's official position and the prestige of the Lin family, she would definitely marry a good man.
The other person in this group was also given flowers, and her expression was the same as Lin Baichan's, and tears were left when she was taken out of the main hall. No one cares why she cries, and most people react with disdain, isn't it just that she was defeated? What is there to cry about, and she won't marry like this when she goes home? This crying person must be "his heart is higher than the sky, and his life is thinner than paper", and he wants to marry the royal family, right? Don't look at her face, no one will notice it in the crowd, how can the royal people choose her?
Whether it is the person who gives flowers or the person who gives the sachet cannot leave the palace immediately except for the main hall, he has to go to the side hall to wait, and wait until all the show girls have been selected, and then they will be sent out of the palace by people.
By the time I left the palace, it was already dusk on the moon, and it was very lively outside the palace gate, all of which were carriages that came to pick up the show girls. Lin Baiyu silently followed Lin Baishu into the carriage, her expression was still in a trance at the moment, she did not recover from the shock of leaving the sign, and naturally she did not notice Lin Baichan's resentful and jealous eyes and Lin Baishu's ecstatic expression of being extremely proud, meaning that her wish was about to be fulfilled.
The carriage drove all the way to the second gate of the Baoling Marquis Mansion, and the third daughter got out of the carriage and was taken directly to the residence of Mrs. Lin in the main courtyard. Lin Junhao and Aunt Zhao were waiting in the main courtyard, and the scattered people hadn't eaten yet, and when they saw the three girls entering the house, Lin Junhao hurriedly asked Lin Baishu: "How is it?"
Lin Baiyu smiled proudly: "Father, I was given a sachet." ”
Lin Junhao laughed when he heard this: "Well done, worthy of being my daughter." ”
Mrs. Lin said with a smile: "The three girls must be hungry when they come back so late, so let the kitchen bring up the dinner first." We asked the children in detail after dinner. ”
Lin Junhao was in a good mood, and said with a smile: "Madam is right, then let's eat first." ”
Aunt Zhao couldn't go to the dinner table to eat, standing behind Mrs. Lin to serve, looking at her daughter's indignant expression, how Aunt Zhao didn't know that her daughter was defeated, and sighed in her heart. She already knew that the result would be like this, but she had some hope, hoping that her daughter would be able to jump through the draft carp and enter the royal family, and become an existence that even her wife would not dare to provoke. Hey, it's an extravagant hope. With such an existence as the eldest lady, how can her daughter be favored by the royal family beyond her?
The people at the dinner table had different thoughts, except for Lin Junhao and Lin Baishu, who were eating happily, the rest of them were absent-minded, and they put down their chopsticks after a few bites of hastily.
After the meal, Lin Junhao sat on the main seat, drank the tea served by his subordinates, and asked Lin Baishu in detail about the draft.
Lin Baishu proudly told the story, Lin Junhao was overjoyed, and praised: "Okay, it is worthy of my Lin Junhao's daughter." It seems that the emperor and the crown princess are very satisfied with you, and your position as the fifth princess is set. ”
Lin Baishu's face flew red, and she said coquettishly: "Dad, the emperor hasn't issued an edict yet." ”
Lin Junhao said: "Nine out of ten things are safe." I have already bought off Gonggong Huang by the emperor's side and Aunt Cui by the crown princess's side, and they will help you say good things. ”
Lin Baishu was happy: "Thank you, father." ”
Mrs. Lin noticed Lin Baiyu's expression in a trance, thinking that she was unhappy because she lost the election, and comforted: "Second girl, there are not many people to be selected in this draft, and it is normal to lose the election." Don't be sad, I will help you find a good family and let you get married. ”
Lin Baiyu looked up at Mrs. Lin in a daze: "Mother, I was left with a sign." ”
"What?" said Mrs. Lin, Lin Junhao, and Aunt Zhao in surprise.
"Second Miss, are you about to say something wrong, right? Her daughters have been branded, how can Lin Baiyu, the second wood, be left with a brand.
Lin Baiyu's gaze swept to Aunt Zhao: "The crown princess gave me a sachet, is this a sign or a sign?"
"Of course, it's a sign. Lin Junhao was extremely happy, he didn't expect that his two daughters could marry into the royal family, and he would have one more backstage in the future.
Mrs. Lin laughed suddenly: "I didn't expect the second girl to be so creative and be valued by nobles, it's really good." ”
However, Mrs. Lin's smile did not reach the bottom of her eyes. She was a little more depressed in her heart: Lin Baiyu, who entered the royal family, was afraid that it was not so easy to master. You have to find a way to take it into your own hands......
