Chapter 20: Choosing a Concubine
It's almost winter, and the leaves are falling all over the ground in late autumn, and it's desolate at a glance.
In the blink of an eye, Ouyang Leadhua has been in the palace for more than three months.
Occasionally, I heard Jing Que talk about Jing Ye's recent situation, and they have been exchanging letters, but Jing Ye has never written to Jing Fan, and Lead Hua only occasionally heard a few words from Jing Que.
Dongfang Qianhua has stayed in Anyang and never left, Ouyang Zhen remembered the queen's favor for Dongfang Qianhua, and named Dongfang Qianhua as the Marquis of Anyang.
I heard that Dongfang Qianhua still frequents the Drunken Immortal Building, and I heard how beautiful the Caiyue girl looks like in the city.
There have been happy events in the palace recently, Ouyang Shuo will quickly carry out the gift of the weak crown, the East Palace has always had a side concubine, two concubines, and the people are thin, Ouyang Zhen decided to choose a concubine for Ouyang Shuo when the gift of the weak crown.
I heard that the princess of the underworld, Dongfang Zixi, and the second princess, Dongfang Ziling, will come to watch the ceremony.
Ouyang Zhen even told Ouyang Shuo about the appearance and character of Dongfang Zixi and Dongfang Ziling early in the morning, but he saw that Ouyang Shuo was not interested. This time the harmony is of great significance, Ouyang Minghua insists on repenting of marriage, if Ouyang Shuo marries the princess of the underworld, leaving the country can be regarded as having an explanation for the underworld, Ouyang Shuo knows that it is powerful.
Qingguo will also send a princess to come, but I heard that the queen of Qingguo has no daughters under her knees, and there is only one concubine's daughter who is twenty-eight years old this year, named Dugu Chumeng.
Leaving the country is another full of lights.
When I got up in the morning, Yu Sheng whispered to me: "Princess, what kind of gift should we choose for His Royal Highness the Prince's gift, in the past, the gifts were hosted by Qingcheng, but this time His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the princess's own brother, and this gift must also have a heart." Yu Sheng reminded that the prince's brother prefers poetry and elegant things, and ordinary things are afraid that they can't get into his eyes.
Over the years, he has been obsessed with medical skills, and he has learned martial arts with Jing Ye, but he is not very proficient in this qin, chess, calligraphy and painting.
As if he remembered something, he asked Yu Sheng: "Yu Sheng, do you still remember, my senior brother drew a picture of mountains and rivers in the past, which has always been treasured by me, go find it quickly." ”
Sedume's painting art has always been excellent, but she was amazed at first sight of that picture of mountains and rivers, and she begged Sedum to come down. But after begging, he threw it aside and never looked at it again. It's a disappointment.
Unfolding the picture of mountains and rivers again is still vivid, the mountains, the water, the grass and trees, all of which are amazing.
Lead Hua let Yu Sheng take it and frame it well, just have a painting, what words should be inscribed, Lead Hua does not know how to compose poems, thinking of all the impressions of his previous life, the poems of thousands of miles of mountains and rivers are not remembered at this time.
A water to protect the field will be green, and the two mountains will send the green. This is Wang Anshi's "Mr. Shuhu Yin Wall", but what are the first two sentences?
Thinking about it, Leadhua simply didn't want to, anyway, there was still some time before Ouyang Shuo's weak crown gift.
The crown prince chooses a concubine, and the big names in the court are all good at training the school-age women in the family, and the women of the family have the opportunity, and even the lead Hua is out of the palace and listens to what the people say about the prince's selection of concubines.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not only handsome and chic, but also has won the hearts of the people. There are not many concubines in the East Palace, which makes the children of the family envious, if you only enter the East Palace to be a concubine, I am afraid that it is good.
Besides, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has no children under his knees, if he can enter the East Palace and give birth to a son and a half daughter for the prince, it is exciting to think about.
The East Palace is as brilliant as before, but it is more lively, because of the prince's choice of concubines, the emperor ordered the East Palace to be renovated.
As soon as Ouyang Leadhua entered the East Palace, he saw the busy figure of the palace people.
Ouyang Shuo's study was full of portraits of women, and when he saw Ouyang Leadhua coming, Ouyang Shuo put down his pen and said cordially: "Why does the imperial sister have time to come to me today?" ”
Ouyang Leadhua smiled and looked at the portraits on the table with great interest. "There are so many beauties, won't the royal brother be dazzled?"
Ouyang Shuo smiled dotingly at Ouyang Leadhua: "The imperial sister is used to making fun of me, and on the day you get married, I am afraid that the threshold of leaving the palace will also be flattened by the children of the family." ”
Ouyang Leadhua smiled shyly, bowed his head and said nothing.
Ouyang Leadhua suddenly saw a beautiful woman, who was actually the prime minister's daughter Yuan Shuxue, with bright eyes and bright teeth, a fair melon seed face, and a smile of spring. Unexpectedly, this Yuan Ruisi's sister is also a great beauty.
Ouyang Shuo saw Ouyang Leadhua staring at the portrait, and said leisurely: "I heard that the prime minister's daughter is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and she plays the pipa very well in one hand. ”
Ouyang Leadhua smiled playfully at Ouyang Shuo: "Brother Huang knows this young lady so well, haven't you seen it?" ”
Ouyang Shuo nodded seriously: "I'm lucky to have met once, it's a wonderful person." ”
Looking at Ouyang Shuo's serious expression, Ouyang Leadhua was shocked, it seemed that everything was destined, I was afraid that the two princesses of the underworld would not be able to win the favor of the royal brother.
Is she bound to marry into the underworld?
It had been a long time since the man in white had left that day. In the past, when she didn't want him to appear, he was often elusive, but now when she wants to see him, he is nowhere to be seen.
It was useless to think too much, so Ouyang Leadhua had to give up.
In her sleep, she seemed to go back to her previous life, she was still an office worker, picking up her children from school after work, everything was so real, as if she hadn't experienced so much.
Wake up and it's just a dream.
Yu Sheng took the framed map of mountains and rivers, and Leadhua suddenly remembered Wang Anshi's poem.
The thatched eaves are long and quiet without moss, and the flowers and trees are planted by hand. A water to protect the field will be green, and the two mountains will send the green.
Ouyang Shuo's gift of the weak crown was celebrated by the whole country. The queen attaches even more importance to it, and Ouyang Leadhua and Ouyang Minghua's costumes are prepared early in the morning.
Ouyang Leadhua wore a brocade robe with lotus embroidered gold peony pattern and bright satin trim, a large-sleeved floor-dragging skirt with a jewel blue background, and a thin smoke veil sprinkled with flowers on a dark brown background.
Ouyang Minghua was dressed in a light purple orchid silk robe full of golden Shu yarn, a pink and white silk skirt that mopped the floor, and a camel bottom bucket pattern icing on the cake and a silk tulle. It's truly beautiful.
As soon as the two princesses appeared, they amazed everyone, and they heard that the queen of the country was also a country and a city, and when Ouyang Zhen was still the prince, it was love at first sight for Dongfang Ziyan.
Now the two princesses are even more blue, and when they heard that the princess of Zhenguo has not yet been married, it makes the children of the family eager to try.
It's just that today is the crown prince's choice of concubine, and he can't give them a chance to behave well.
As soon as Ouyang Shuo appeared, everyone breathed even more.
The whole person exuded a charming kingly atmosphere, which made people reluctant to take their eyes off his face. He was so beautiful that it seemed to blur men and women, and there was a careless maturity on his evil face, so beautiful that it could not be described in words.
