The one hundred and twentieth round
When he happily took out the things to be used and showed them to everyone, everyone looked at each other, no one could guess what he was going to do, this was choosing a concubine and not wiping dominoes, what did he do with a deck of dice?
I heard him say in his mouth: "This so-called distinction between the main concubine and the second concubine, isn't it who is big and who is small?" Come on, come on, one of you rolls the dice once, a handful of winners and losers, whoever has a big number of points will be the big concubine and the big wife, and whoever has a small number of points will be the second concubine and the little wife. ”
"What's the matter, isn't this king's method fast, trouble-free and fair, ten thousand times better than my third brother's stupid method of tricking up the mysteries and being vassals and elegant!"
The hall suddenly sounded all kinds of coughing sound one after another, the Duchess of Weiguo was the most unlucky, she was drinking tea, and listened to the wonderful method of choosing a concubine by His Royal Highness the King of Linchuan, and immediately squirted out all the tea, coughing earth-shattering.
Mrs. Dingxi also sighed in her heart, this Royal Highness the King of the County is no longer an eye-opener for her every time she sees him, but as long as you stay with him for a while, he can make you "impressed" at him again and again in a moment.
Although everyone secretly scolded King Linchuan in their hearts for his broken method of choosing a concubine, they had to admit that although this method was inferior to the extreme, it was really as Qin Fei said, "fast, trouble-free and fair".
However, after a short period of effort, Cui and Jin Ernu finished rolling the dice, Cui Qijun was six points, and Jin Cuiqiao was two points, so no one had the slightest objection to which of the two would be the main concubine and who would be the second concubine.
Qin Fei saw that the size had been divided, clapped his hands and smiled: "Okay, since this king has chosen a big and small wife, it's done!" There is nothing to do with this king to stay here, so I will retire from the queen mother's aunt first, and Brother Yong is still waiting for me to go back and fight crickets with him! ”
He threw the dice casually, saluted the Empress Dowager Sun, turned around and left, and disappeared as soon as he slipped away.
There was an eerie silence in the Ying'an Hall again, and it was the coughing of King Yingchuan that broke the silence. Concubine Yingchuan saw that he was coughing very badly and couldn't stand steadily, worried that he had blown the flute several times today and was too angry, so she hurriedly told the Empress Dowager Sun that she was going to help him go back to rest first.
When the two old ladies saw that the time was almost up, they glanced at each other, got up and left their seats together to congratulate the Empress Dowager Sun and Concubine Yingchuan, congratulate the two county kings on finally choosing their favorite princess, and finally congratulate Mrs. Zuo Xiang, congratulating her daughter on becoming the princess of Linchuan in the near future.
Mrs. Zuo Xiang couldn't be happy at all in her heart, whether it was her family or herself, she wanted her daughter to marry King Yingchuan, even if it was okay to be a second concubine, it was better than marrying the King of Linchuan. What if she is the concubine of the king of Linchuan? As for the hidden illness of the king of Linchuan, not only is he destined to miss the throne, but he can't even do the things of husband and wife, and he can't give his daughter a more noble status, and he can't even give his daughter the joy of Dunlun, and he can't even give his own daughter?
Where is this a good family affair, it is clearly to send my daughter over to be a widow! And this King of Linchuan is still such an unobtrusive bastard, he is a hundred times worse than those idle gentlemen in Beijing, just look at his behavior today, this temperament, and marrying a wife, such a major life event, he can also be so nonsense, it can be seen that in his eyes, he doesn't take the second concubine seriously at all, and there is no woman in his eyes at all, can you still expect him to shout and care for his daughter?
Mrs. Zuo Xiang simply felt more and more chilled the more she thought about it, and the smile on her face that was barely squeezed out was even more ugly than crying.
When Empress Dowager Sun saw it in her eyes, she felt that the anger in her chest was a lot smoother, hmph, this slut is now relying on her husband to be the left minister of the government and the opposition, and she is bold, and she dares to sing against her master, which is really beyond her strength!
What if her daughter is the concubine of the king of Linchuan, but she is just going to be a widow, it is not as good as her niece and granddaughter, in the end she is married to Qin Min, although she is a second concubine, but what about the second concubine, she was not even a serious concubine back then, and now she is not sitting on the throne of the queen mother.
Besides, this is just a selection of candidates, and it is not an official marriage, there is still a month before the wedding, if something happens in the meantime, it is impossible to wait until the wedding, Cao Yulian can be directly carried into the Yingchuan palace as a concubine?
Thinking of this, Empress Dowager Sun felt that her mood was better again, and her gloomy face finally cleared up and showed a smile, she got up and said: "Since the candidates for the concubines and concubines of the two county kings have been selected, there will be a will tomorrow, although the two county kings are not young, but the county kings are married, there should be etiquette and pomp, and they have to prepare for the last month's work, and they will hold a wedding ceremony for the two county kings in October." ”
"You four ladies have been regarded as my royal people from now on, and after returning home, you must live in a simple place and wait for marriage with peace of mind, as for the etiquette rules in the palace, the palace will send two grandmothers to teach you. In the past few months, you have to be cautious and careful with this palace, but don't make any bad things happen before you get married, which will not only ruin your own good future, but also affect my royal reputation. Don't blame me for talking ugly about it, if something like this really happens, don't blame the ruthlessness of the subordinates of this palace! ”
Cai Wei and the other four hurriedly knelt on the ground, and said something in their mouths, "Obey the teachings of the Queen Mother, be sure to clean yourself, and wait for marriage with peace of mind".
Empress Dowager Sun waved her hand, "That's it, you are also tired for a long time, so go back to the house to rest first!" ”
Concubine Yingchuan originally wanted to leave Cai Wei alone for a while, and then tell her a few words, seeing that Empress Dowager Sun would rather leave a while later, but also let these ladies go first, so she had to give Cai Wei a look, and watched her follow the three daughters and slowly walk out of the palace.
Cai Wei was afraid that the three girls would provoke her words in case of provocation, so she deliberately slowed down her pace, far behind them, and when she arrived at the second gate, the three people had already boarded the car and left, these days Yingchuan Palace's daily pick-up and drop-off of her Zhu Yingcui cover Jiuhua car has stopped in front of the door, Wen Mama is standing next to the car and looking at her with a smile.
Cai Wei thought that Mama Wen suddenly appeared here, and she must have passed on something to Concubine Shen, but Mama Wen only said to her, "Miss Zhou, this car is loaded with a lot of things that Concubine Yu brought to you today, and you can't sit more people, I'm afraid that I will be wronged by the two girls Xiangcheng and Gantang, who are sitting in a small car behind her." ”
Why didn't the things that the concubine gave her put into that car, but in this Jiuhua car? Although Cai Wei felt a little strange in her heart, because it was just an inconsequential matter, she didn't ask too much, and nodded her head in agreement.
Mama Wen said to Xiangcheng and Gantang: "You two go to the back and take the car, I'll wait for you girls to get in the car!" After speaking, he helped Cai Wei to step on the footstool.
Seeing that Cai Wei had gotten into the carriage, she lifted the curtain and was about to go in, when she suddenly stiffened, and she stood at the door of the carriage, unable to take a single step.
