Xiao Bao'er swept the front yard, the pillars, the walls, the green bricks, and a bunch of freshly swept fallen leaves! The Central Plains people are really troublesome, the courtyards built look similar, and she can only know if the other courtyard where she was imprisoned in her dream is this when she goes to the inner courtyard. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 Seeing her raise her feet and step in, Yang Gonggong quickly grabbed her, "Princess, you are not allowed to enter or leave here!"

Xiao Chun glanced at Gonggong Yang, who hurriedly knelt down, "Slave to King Chun to say goodbye!" Two sneers were Xiao Chun's answer.

Xiao Bao'er on the side stood on tiptoe and looked in, and said, "It turns out that this is called the Flying Flower Palace, what a beautiful name!

Xiao Chun said: "The original design was nine hundred yuan, and the queen mother thought that nine was the number of poles, and only the Son of Heaven was worthy of using it. She ordered someone to cut off a few pieces of glazed tiles, and without changing the pattern, the glazed tiles changed from nine hundred to one thousand and one hundred. The glazed tiles that had been cut were laid around the pond by craftsmen, and there were no signs of cutting without looking closely. ”

Xiao Bao'er's bright face suddenly lost its color, and a vicissitudes that did not match her age condensed in her eyes. In dreams, every day is so real, every day is so hard. She counted the glazed tiles in the inner courtyard, and the number was exactly the same as what King Chun said. With the last glimmer of hope, she asked, "Lord Wang, is there a rockery pond in the inner courtyard?"

"There are no rockeries, there are ponds, and recently there are remnants of lotus to relieve loneliness"

"Are there big fish in the pond?"

"I've never seen it. ”

"Really?" When asked, Xiao Bao'er's voice trembled, her eyes were full of pleading, and she looked like tears would gush out when she heard the answer.

Xiao Chun thought for a moment, "This king has little observation of the pond in the inner courtyard, maybe there are big fish, but this king didn't pay attention." ”

Xiao Bao'er smiled, she has lived here for five years, and she has counted the tiles like Xiao Chun, and she knows very well the mood of counting at that time. I also know that the only place in the yard that has a little life is the pond, where the mud is thick and the water is shallow, and there are no big fish. Prince Chun knew that the change of words was just to comfort her.

"Lord Wang, please come here with your ears, Bao'er has something to say to you. ”

Xiao Chun looked at the guards outside the door, and leaned out part of his body with a puzzled expression. Xiao Bao'er took a step forward and was about to whisper to him, but Gonggong Yang beside her dragged her and said in a high voice, "Princess, don't forget the Empress Dowager's decree, this rule even the Son of Heaven must abide by it." ”

Xiao Bao'er stood up and said in a voice that the three people in front of the door could hear, "The pond in the inner courtyard is connected to the smoke pond in the Imperial Garden. There were no big fish in the pond, except that the inlet at the bottom of the west side of the pond had been sealed with stones, and only a small hole the thickness of an arm remained. The best way to get out of here is to dive in and pry open the rocks that seal the inlet......"

"Princess!" Father-in-law Yang was frightened by Xiao Bao'er's words. Does she know who King Chun is? Does she know that her words will cause death? Who took advantage of this steppe barbarian girl to bring these words to King Chun?

"Gonggong Yang, Bao'er scared you, don't be afraid, the matter will pass soon......" As she spoke, Xiao Bao'er pushed Gonggong Yang on her side into the Flying Flower Hall with lightning speed. She used ten percent of her strength, and she was sure that Yang Gonggong would not be able to speak for a few days.

"Ah......h

Grandpa Yang's screams made all the guards who were guarding around gather in front of the door. Xiao Bao'er said to them quite innocently, "The Empress Dowager has a will, and the Flying Flower Hall can only enter and exit." Yang Gonggong accidentally fell in, according to the will of the Queen Mother, you can't release him. ”

Several guards looked at each other, the Empress Dowager did have a will, could it be that this slave stayed with King Chun?

Xiao Bao'er said again: "The Flying Flower Hall is quite big, and many minions can still live, and the Queen Mother will naturally inform her." Today is the Empress Dowager's birthday, a day of celebration for the whole world, and we shouldn't bother her old man with such trivial matters, right?"

The guards were still hesitating, but King Chun spoke, "If the princess is fine, this king will close the door." ”

"Bother the prince for a long time, the prince walks slowly!"

King Chun ignored Gonggong Yang, who was lying on the ground, and reached out to slowly close the vermilion gate. During this time, he kept looking at Xiao Bao'er, and wondered why the princess who appeared inexplicably told him about the fact that the bottom of the pond led to the imperial garden.

The two doors were about to close for a while, and Xiao Baoer said four words silently to Xiao Chun behind the crack in the door: Gong change, run away.

Xiao Chun looked at Xiao Bao'er in shock, "Palace change, run away," did her lips really say this? The Empress Dowager has been in charge of the government for so many years, the Great Xia Palace is impregnable, and the vassal states contain each other, so why do you say that the palace has changed?

Xiao Bao'er ignored Xiao Chun's questioning gaze and turned to leave. The palace change will definitely happen, and the future regent Xuanze will never allow any prince surnamed Xiao to live. For the sake of having lived in the Flying Flower Hall with Xiao Chun, she hopes that Xiao Chun will live.

Heaven has given her the opportunity to choose again, and she hopes to distribute this special favor to everyone who is good to her.

When leaving, Xiao Bao'er glanced back at the dusty plaque of the Flying Flower Palace, and vowed never to return here in this life.

The two maids guarding the other side of the corridor asked, "Princess, why didn't Gonggong Yang come back with you?"

Xiao Bao'er sneered and asked, "How should you answer the Empress Dowager when she asks about this person?"

The two maids knelt down in front of Xiao Bao'er together, and said in unison: "Please also ask the princess to show me." ”

"If the Empress Dowager asks about that minion, you will say that you don't know where he has gone. If you accidentally say the wrong thing and cause me to be reprimanded by the Empress Dowager, I swear that I will sew your mouth shut so that you will never speak for the rest of your life. Xiao Bao'er has always been true to her word, and the two maids thought that their mouths would be sewn up with needles, so they were silent for a while, and they stopped thinking about probing.

As soon as Xiao Bao'er returned to the dormitory, several maids came with crowns and clothes, and said gossipingly, "Princess, you can come back, don't delay the time to congratulate the Empress Dowager on her birthday......

It was autumn, and the three-layer single dress in summer had been increased to six, and if the dress symbolizing the princess's status was added, Xiao Baoer had to wear nine layers of single clothes under the service of the maid. Not to mention that in addition to clothes, she also has to tie her hair and wear a crown, and her heavy cloisonné double luan red gold crown hangs with tassels, always reminding her to keep her head up and her chest to see the road ahead.

The last single dress on the upper body, the maids helped her to take a self-portrait in the mirror, only to hear her "oops", at this moment I realized that I chose a husband today, and all the tragedies in the dream began today, what should I do now?

"Princess, what's wrong?"

"Princess, but the clothes don't fit?"

"Princess ......"

"Get out, get out, get out......" she angrily drove all the maids out of the dormitory, and circled around the room like a trapped beast. She likes Xuan Ze, but she can't marry Xuan Ze, if she doesn't marry Xuan Ze, what should she do if she chooses a husband today?

Xiao Bao'er has straight intestines and straight brains, Guan thought about who else she could marry if she didn't marry Xuan Ze, and she didn't think that she didn't have to marry someone at all. Choosing a husband is just a means for the Empress Dowager to keep her in Daxia completely.

Su Su was taken to Xiao Bao'er's bedroom by the maid in a daze, and when she saw her running towards her enthusiastically, she couldn't help but take a step back, "The slave has seen the princess!"

Xiao Bao'er rarely used her brain, and when she was about to see the Empress Dowager, her mind was still a mess, and she didn't know what to do at all. After thinking about it, she decided to find Su Su, who was Xuan Ze's personal maid, and was placed in the palace by Xuan Ze to help the two of them pass the word. Su Su is literate and knowledgeable, has unique insights into many things, and may be able to give reliable advice.

"Su Su, do you know that the Empress Dowager will let me choose a husband today?"

"The slave and maid know that the son also asked the slave and maid to pass a message to the princess, and she will marry the princess no matter what!" At this time, Su Su had not yet been disfigured, and her palm-sized face faintly had the style of a mature woman. Xiao Bao'er looked at her on a guarded look, so she had to reorganize her language and asked politely: "Miss Susu, Qingshanjun often praises you for being smart and clever, and you are a rare helper. This princess has some questions in her heart and wants to find someone to answer, who do you think is more suitable in this world?"

Su Su looked at Xiao Bao'er in surprise. Xindao: She still thinks? There are still questions in her mind, the sun is coming out in the west!

"I don't know if the princess has any doubts, if you can trust the slave and maid, you can say it and let the slave and maid share your worries. ”

Xiao Bao'er is in a dilemma, how can she not mention the things in her dreams, and solve the trouble of choosing a husband right now?" You're smart, but it's a man's business, and you can't give Princess Ben an answer. ”

Su Su didn't think that Xiao Bao'er could have the so-called world affairs there, so she asked smartly: "Princess, do you want the slave maid to bring a message to the son?"

Xiao Bao'er Otherwise, Su Su's proposal, "I know Qingshan-kun is very smart, besides him, do you have anyone else you can recommend?"

Su Su pondered for a while and said, "Princess, in order to celebrate the birthday of the Empress Dowager, the Son of Heaven specially appointed the new science and technology jinshi and the genius of Daxia to gather together. These people are the pillars of the country, and the princess's questions, some of them must be able to help solve them. ”

Xiao Bao'er's eyes lit up.

The Empress Dowager and Xuan ordered her to choose a good person among the young talents. Because of Fang's secret permission, she has always set her eyes on Xuan Ze and has never considered other possibilities. In her eyes, except for Xuan Ze, the so-called Daxia nobles are just some greased and exaggerated sissies, and they have no choice at all.

Su Su's proposal made her think of another possibility, and the new Kejin Shi also met the requirements of the Empress Dowager. In addition, the imperial examination was an important way for the imperial court to obtain materials from the people. In order to prevent the government from being controlled by the aristocracy for a long time, the children of the nobles could not participate in the imperial examination, which meant that the new branch jinshi came from an ordinary background and would not bring her too much trouble. The problem that had been tangled all morning was finally solved, and she asked again: "Su Su, among this year's new science and technology scholars, is there anyone who Qingshan Jun appreciates more?"

Su Su thought for a while before saying, "Gongzi didn't talk about these people's literary talents to the slave maid, listening to Gongzi chatting with friends, on the day of the palace test, the Son of Heaven has already drafted the champion, the list eye, and the three of Tanhua through the article. But the son said to the Son of Heaven, only the words are like his person, and the handwriting of the list is too elegant and gorgeous, and he must have a good appearance, and it is more appropriate to give it to Tanhua. The next day, Tanhualang really had a good skin, and the son's ability to do things like a god made the Son of Heaven praise. ”

Xiao Bao'er was obedient and only listened to half of it, Su Su said so much, she only remembered that Xuan Ze said that Tanhualang was good. "Qingshan-kun is smart, and his vision for knowing people must be very accurate. You go out, I should go and say hello to the Empress Dowager. ”

Su Su didn't understand what Xiao Bao'er wanted to do until she left. If she knew that what she said just now made Xiao Baoer decide to marry Tanhualang, she would definitely sew her mouth on her own and wouldn't say anything!

In Yongshou Palace, the Empress Dowager sat in the center, and a group of noble ladies sat upright on both sides like clay sculptures. Xiao Bao'er was a little stunned when she saw this situation, and she couldn't understand, isn't the Central Plains woman tired of living like this? She sat upright all day long, laughing so much that she covered her mouth with a handkerchief, cried so much that she covered her eyes with a handkerchief, and couldn't open her hands and feet when eating and drinking......

"Here we go!"

As soon as the Empress Dowager spoke, all the ladies looked sideways at Xiao Bao'er. No matter how you look at the whitened dough, this is also an important reason why Xiao Baoer still can't tell who is who is the noblewoman in the Qing Dynasty.

She walked quickly to the Empress Dowager, knelt down at the middle-aged woman's feet and said hello. The Empress Dowager touched her hair in the air, and said with a smile: "Our family Bao'er is really filial, and the temper of a little tiger in the past has become a cat now." ”

"Wan Ting, give me a seat. ”

Xiao Huiting, who had been standing beside the Empress Dowager, asked the maid to carry a chair for Xiao Bao'er.
