Imperial Garden, a pavilion, outside the pavilion is guarded by eunuchs and palace maids, a little far away from the pavilion, and it is difficult to hear the content of the people in the pavilion. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Xiao Ping, who is still a little baby fat, and Xiao Shan, who is tall and handsome, sit opposite each other, Xiao Shan has a bright smile, Xiao Ping puffs out his face, if you don't hear the content of their conversation from the outside, you must think that Xiao Shan is just teasing Xiao Ping, Xiao Ping is angry, but if you hear the content of their conversation, it will make people feel weird.

"What does the fifth brother think of this place?" Xiao Shan smiled brightly and glanced at Xiao Ping lightly.

Xiao Ping puffed out his face, swept around, and glared at Xiao Shan angrily, but said in his mouth, "It's not bad, the pavilion is open everywhere, and there is nothing to cover around." ”

Xiao Shan shook his head, looking like he was playing a scoundrel from a distance, "Fourth brother, I hate every time why God makes the fourth brother so smart, but others are so stupid, you said that in the palace, you have to be careful of mysterious secret talks to discuss countermeasures, this is not a cover-up, but to expose yourself to discuss conspiracies and tricks, attracting the attention of others." ”

Xiao Ping pursed his lips and complained, as if he had been greatly wronged, "The fourth brother is right, so the fourth brother invited me here, so openly and unabashedly, outsiders only see the form, we are like quarrelling, but in essence, we are discussing some ulterior things." ”

Xiao Shan smiled, stood up and came behind Xiao Ping, touching his inky black hair, from a distance, it looked like Xiao Shan was apologizing, "Unspeakable things? Fifth brother, you are like an adult at the age of three, and the fourth brother and I are also open-minded, this is all an ulterior thing, otherwise it will be publicized, we will either be imprisoned to death as demons, or we will be worshiped as geniuses, and then besieged by the three elder brothers, my mother is just the daughter of a prefect, the concubine has long been given up by the Murong family, we can only wait for death, you said the fourth brother, am I right? ”

Xiao Ping turned his head to the other side angrily, looking at it from a distance, "Fourth brother is right, we are all ulteriors. ”

He turned to look at Xiao Shan again, and from a distance, it seemed that Xiao Ping had made any request to Xiao Shan, but the fact was that Xiao Ping was unwilling to accompany Xiao Shan to perform pantomime, and asked Xiao Shan directly, "What is the fourth brother looking for me?" Come on, I don't want to pretend to be an angry kid to entertain others. ”

He gave Xiao Shan a look and motioned for someone not far away to watch them.

Xiao Shan smiled flatteringly, kneading Xiao Ping's shoulders, and from a distance, it looked like Xiao Shan was offering courtesy, "Fourth brother, I just want to say, the eldest brother has changed, don't be deceived." ”

Xiao Ping looked at Xiao Shan suspiciously, exhaled lightly, and his puffed face disappeared, as if his anger had also disappeared, in fact, Xiao Ping sighed, "The prince four years ago was more than calm, but it will never be as verbose as now, but after being canonized as the prince, the prince has become a friendly brother, and he is a good brother who teaches his younger brother in a long way, but just like us, he is just wearing a layer of skin, but unfortunately, this layer of skin is late, and it makes people think about it slightly, and it is full of flaws." ”

Xiao Shan squatted down again and pinched Xiao Ping's thighs, "Yes, who in the palace doesn't wear a layer of skin, my mother concubine is the same, and the concubine is the same, but they are not as good as us, they can only deceive others after they expose their true nature, and we, when we are still children, are covered with a layer of skin, and others can't spy on what is under this skin." ”

Xiao Ping angrily removed the slightly painful thigh that was pinched by him, got up, and walked out of the pavilion with his face puffed up, only whispering in Xiao Shan's ear, "Don't be too proud, if you are too proud, you will suffer a big loss." ”

Xiao Ping walked out of the pavilion, leaving Xiao Shan alone laughing, as if he thought Xiao Ping was funny, but in fact, he laughed at Xiao Ping's warning, as a prodigy with an early mind, what if he was just stubborn and self-serving?

In the corridor not far away, Emperor Qingping had been standing on the side of the corridor looking at the pavilion, in his eyes, this was Xiao Shan teasing Xiao Ping.

Seeing Xiao Ping leave the pavilion in a huff, only when Xiao Shan, who was smiling proudly and arrogantly, Emperor Qingping said to himself, "This fourth child seems to have a good relationship with the fifth child." ”

Then without waiting for Father-in-law Qian to respond to the compliment, he turned around and left.

Zhaoyang Palace

The concubine warmly received the eldest lady, chatted with her, from the uncle to the lobby brother, from the old lady to the eldest lady herself, and the lobby sister-in-law, greeted them one by one, and said that her mouth was dry, and then she picked up the teacup and moistened her throat.

The concubine's eyes rolled, covered it with a teacup, and asked quietly, "The eldest aunt went to Sister Yao this time, but what the old lady ordered was done properly?" ”

The second lady's heart rose suddenly, and she looked at the eldest lady nervously, she couldn't help but blame the concubine in her heart, you asked so bluntly, what if you anger the eldest sister-in-law? When I return home as an informant, I must also be fed.

The eldest lady glanced at the second lady who was worried next to her, and then lowered her head and smiled, it was not surprising that the concubine would know that she was ordered by the old lady to go to the concubine, after all, the second lady was the concubine's own mother, "Things are not very proper, so the woman came to your Zhaoyang Palace to see if you can take a hand." ”

The concubine asked directly, and the eldest lady also said directly that there was no beating around the bush, after all, the purpose of her coming to Zhaoyang Palace was to be a dead horse and a live horse doctor, to see if this transparent concubine, who had long fallen out of favor, could talk to His Majesty.

"My niece thinks that Sister Yao must have her own difficulties," the concubine smiled slightly, "My niece has long lost His Majesty's favor, but she doesn't have to worry about Sister Yao's, she is very willing to give it a try." ”

The eldest lady looked at the concubine who agreed so happily in surprise, but the concubine beckoned to Murong Shan, who was not as timid as in the Evergreen Palace this time, and walked up to the concubine very obediently.

The concubine carefully looked at Murong Shan, nodded with satisfaction, hugged her, and then said with a smile, "This is Shan'er, she will be a rare beauty when she grows up." ”

She pretended to hesitate and paused, before she said embarrassedly, "My niece can go to Your Majesty's place to try, but you can't use the relatives of the six princes as a pawn, after all, the six princes have Sister Yao, and it is not the niece's turn to interfere." ”

The eldest lady nodded slightly when she heard this, and the concubine came to test it, it was indeed inappropriate to use the relatives of the six princes as a felling, but she couldn't think of anything else for a while, so she had to ask, "Does the concubine have other opinions?" ”

Just waiting for your words, the concubine was overjoyed, her eyebrows raised, her eyes were full of brilliance, and she said her thoughts, "The niece can't interfere in the family affairs of the six princes, but the five princes were raised by their nieces, and his niece's words have a certain weight, so it is better to change the six princes to the five princes, do you think it is feasible?" ”

The eldest lady stared at the concubine, and sighed slightly in her heart, what a shrewd person she was, as soon as the lady finished speaking, she understood that the concubine was trying to win her big house, and when the old lady went, the Murong family was the master of the big house, even if the Murong family was no longer beautiful, but with the Murong family, the concubine would be able to stiffen her waist, instead of being so aggrieved and shrinking into a turtle.

It's useless to figure out the joint, she can't call the shots in this matter, it is true that she has a certain right to speak in the Murong family, but it was the old lady who made the decision in the end, so she had to shirk and said, "This matter still has to be discussed with your uncle and old lady, and then the old lady decides." ”

The concubine smiled slightly, not caring about the eldest lady's prevarication, she had already expected this, rubbing Murong Shan's delicate skin, "Shan'er is so well-behaved and beautiful, my niece likes Shan'er very much, and I really want her to be her daughter-in-law, if she wishes, her niece will not treat Shan'er badly." ”

Whether this is true or not, the eldest lady is happy to listen to it, and parents are always happy when others praise their children.

At this time, Ping'er came in from outside, and after giving a salute, she said, "Niangniang, the fifth highness has come down." ”

The concubine immediately smiled and urged, "Let him come in quickly, let him see the daughter-in-law I chose for him." ”

The eldest lady wanted to open her mouth to stop the concubine from saying this, but after thinking about it, she swallowed the words that came to her mouth, and it was not bad to think about it carefully, as long as she tried to find out His Majesty's attitude towards the Murong family, which prince Shan'er married would be the future princess.

As soon as Xiao Ping came in, he heard such a sentence, and he was thundered for a while, and secretly took a deep breath, which stabilized his shaking heart, and his brain thought about it, the concubine announced it like this, I am afraid that this daughter-in-law is going to be decided, this may be a political marriage.

Xiao Ping packed up his thoughts, and then showed a bright smile again.

"Mother."

"Grandmother."

He saluted the concubine one by one, and the second lady saluted, the concubine nodded slightly, but the second lady was busy and said, "No, no." ”

When he arrived at the eldest lady, Xiao Ping saw it, that is, every year at the banquet, he would see the eldest lady, but he didn't know how to call it, so he looked at the concubine suspiciously.

The concubine smiled and introduced, "This is the eldest aunt of the mother concubine, you should call the eldest uncle and grandmother." ”

Xiao Ping shouted sharply, "Uncle, grandmother." ”

The eldest lady also hurriedly got up and retreated, not daring to respond.

"Come here, look at the daughter-in-law that the concubine picked for you." The concubine beckoned to Xiao Ping and said.

Xiao Ping looked at the three-year-old girl in the arms of the concubine, delicate and cute, took a deep breath, did a good job of psychological construction, and thought to himself, since it is a political marriage, as a prince, he should accept it silently.

Xiao Ping approached the concubine and looked at Murong Shan carefully, Murong Shan also looked at Xiao Ping ignorantly, and the other people in the hall were silent, looking at the two people who looked at each other.

"I know this sister."

An earth-shattering sentence, Xiao Ping was thundered by himself in his heart, and he couldn't hold back the goosebumps that he was about to get up, and silently knelt down to beg Jia Baoyu's forgiveness, expressing repentance for his shameless plagiarism.

"Oh? Nonsense, Shan'er is the first time to enter the palace, how can you recognize it? The concubine said angrily.

Plagiarism once is endlessly repentant, and there is no pressure to plagiarize again, Xiao Ping smiled back to the concubine, "Although I haven't seen it, it's very kind, just think of it as an old acquaintance reunion." ”

The concubine smiled from ear to ear and said bluntly, "Fate, it's really God-given fate, auntie, what do you say?" ”

The eldest lady smiled reluctantly, "Yes, Shan'er and the fifth prince have never been masked, but they are like old people, but they are fate." ”

As soon as she said this, she showed her attitude, she herself agreed to marry Murong Shan to the fifth prince, the old lady didn't know, but the concubine nodded with satisfaction, pointed at Murong Shan, and asked Xiao Ping, "Let him be your daughter-in-law, can you treat her well?" ”

"Let it be hidden in the house of gold."

Xiao Ping cried silently in his heart, once plagiarism forms a habit, it is difficult to be original and say his own words.
