Chapter 233: Choosing a Concubine
That being said, but who in this temple would take it seriously?
The ladies sat down one after another, all of them pursed their lips and smiled, staring at the table in front of them with bare eyes. www.+βι +βpoint+βsmall+β said, that is, when someone really spoke, it was also a whispered conversation with the leading table.
Chu Yueqing was the same, she sat at the table, staring at the ground without squinting.
But naturally there are people who are more lively.
"Let's do the poem." A little lady in a pink shirt said.
When she said this, everyone around her responded to her.
Seeing this, the queen mother who was sitting on the main seat in the hall smiled and said: "If you like it, you can write poetry." It's up to you to come first. β
The queen raised her hand and pointed slightly, and said to the little lady who was the first to say, "Which house are you from?" β
The little lady in the peach-colored shirt looked not very old, she was naughty and active, she got up and said happily: "If you will be the queen's mother, the courtier Yuan Liu." β
"Yuan Liu?" The queen looked at her carefully: "Yuan Cen is far away?" β
"Back to the queen's mother, she is the grandfather of the courtier."
"Oh~" After getting the right words, the queen mother looked at Yuan Liu's eyes with a hint of consideration, and she smiled lovingly: "When will Liu'er have a good time?" β
"Niangniang," for some reason, Yuan Liu's face was slightly red, and the tone of his words became much lower: "Liu Er is not yet in time." β
At this time, a woman beside Yuan Liu got up, and she said to the queen's mother: "The concubine has seen the queen's mother. The queen's mother, Liu Er was born in the thirteenth year of Emperor Mo. It will be in time for March next year. β
As soon as these words came out, the smile on the queen's face was even worse, and she seemed to be satisfied and nodded: "This palace looks at Liu Er and I are very fateful, and in this case, this palace will come up with a question for Liu Er this time." As she spoke, the queen glanced at the ladies in the palace lightly: "Let's start with the word 'Yuan', Liu'er, you do it first." β
Liu Er bowed her knees to the queen mother, and said with a smile: "Liu Er thanks the queen for her grace." β
After that, Liu Er got up and said to the ladies in the hall, "Where did the fate come from?" Heaven or earth? The gentleman looks at the sun and the moon. The daughter sighed and parted. Don't say that you don't love each other, just chant and return. β
After Yuan Liu finished a poem, the other ladies in the hall looked at her with more vigilance and jealousy in their eyes.
Chu Yueqing looked at her dumbfounded, this little girl understands the pain of lovesickness at such a young age. It turns out that ancient people were really precocious?!
Chu Yueqing has not yet recovered from the shock. Yuan Liu had already explained to everyone: "This poem is actually not made by Liu Er alone. This time of year. Liu'er's brothers have all gone to the border gate, leaving the eldest sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law to wait in Beijing. Liu Er often accompanies her sister-in-law and sister-in-law, and once we gossip together. The poem was written by accident. Although it is not a masterpiece, Liu Er felt that this poem expressed the hearts of most women in our Qi country, so she dared to read it..."
Yuan Liu's tone paused, and then said to the queen concubine Huili: "The queen concubine Hui concubine, the courtiers are bold, and please ask the queen concubine Hui Concubine not to punish her." β
When Chu Yueqing heard this, he couldn't help but look at her again, this woman is really different!
If it were an ordinary person, they should have said that they would ask the queen to punish Concubine Hui, but she said not to punish!
Sure enough, the queen mother laughed after a "flutter", "You girl, you are a quirky." How can this palace punish you, Changning and the horses of this palace are also fighting in the frontier all the year round, your poem, but it also fits the mood of the first two years of this palace. Sister Huifei is even more considerate, where would she blame the little girl? Isn't it, Sister Huifei? β
The queen mother said, looking at Concubine Hui who had a birthday gift today.
Concubine Hui smiled brightly: "What my sister said is that my sister naturally won't blame the little girl." Besides, my sister also thinks that this little girl's poems are very good. Today, regardless of the rules or humility, everyone is bold and happy. Who's next? β
Yuan Liu had a smile in her watery eyes, and she said, "The courtiers thanked the queen and the concubine." β
Then she turned to the table on the right and said, "Sister, please make the next one with the word 'return'." β
On the right side of Yuan Liu, there is a lady with a demure temperament, she got up and first gave a blessing to the queen Huifei, and muttered for a moment before she said: "In June, the flowers bloom in splendor." Wealth and joy are full of joy, and the courtyard is full of fragrant flowers. β
ββ¦ The courtiers are not talented, so they congratulate Concubine Hui on your birthday with this poem. β
This is a poem that is suitable for the occasion, and the smile on Concubine Hui's face finally has a real point, and she said: "I have a heart." β
ββ¦β¦.β
The poem was carried out so unhurriedly, but Chu Yueqing was nervous on the side.
She can still play with the idiom at the end of the word, and pick up the poem?!
This is also too exaggerated! It's a test of her cultural heritage!
Chu Yueqing froze there: The direction of this matter has changed too much, can she not participate?
Is it possible to pretend to be transparent?
Or, did she run away while people weren't looking?
Chu Yueqing secretly glanced around, and suddenly felt that life had become dim, and she was sitting in an orderly manner, she would be found immediately when she got up, and what else was there to talk about!
Sighing, she turned to look at Xiao Dong beside her, only to see Xiao Dong's indifferent appearance, Chu Yueqing couldn't help but ask in surprise: "Xiao Dong, how is your poetry?" β
Xiao Dong didn't look at her, reached out and took a piece of snack from the table and put it in his mouth, muttering: "I know a little bit about it, but I don't know it well." However, there is no problem in dealing with this kind of fun occasion. β
The corners of Chu Yueqing's mouth couldn't help twitching: My God! Can you still be happy friends!
"However," Xiao Dong continued: "It doesn't matter if we make poems or not, what the queen wants to see is the table of these unmarried little ladies." β
As soon as Chu Yueqing heard that it could not be used as a poem, he instantly came to his senses: "Why is this? β
"You don't know?" Xiao Dong finally turned to look at her, his eyes sparkling with disbelief.
Chu Yueqing was stunned, and she muttered, "Should I know?" β
"This matter has long been spread in Beijing, and the little lady who came to Concubine Hui's birthday today knows it clearly. Although this banquet was under the guise of holding a birthday ceremony for Concubine Hui, in fact, the emperor asked the queen to choose a suitable woman among these ladies of the right age. β
"Choose the right woman?!" Chu Yueqing looked at Xiao Dong in surprise, and a thought flashed in his mind: "Won't it?" β
Xiao Dong nodded and said, "That's right, that's it." β
After getting the answer, Chu Yueqing poked his head over and whispered in Xiao Dong's ear: "But the emperor is so old, and he still wants to choose a woman to enter the palace?" β
Listening to Chu Yueqing's words, Xiao Dong resisted the urge to roll her eyes, she turned her head and whispered word by word: "It's for the Seven Princes to choose a concubine!" (To be continued.) )
