Lunch is served in the outer courtyard. Tang Lun thought that the meat was too bad for a while, that there was too much salt in the vegetables for a while, and that the soup was too bland, in short, all kinds of awkwardness.

Cui Keyin took the maid to serve two dishes, and when the maid served the dishes, she glanced at Tang Lun, and Tang Lun, whose buttocks were twisting on the chair, immediately became honest, picked up the chopsticks and bowed his head to eat.

Zhou Heng glanced at Cui Keyin, and said softly: "There is a maid and a woman waiting here, you can also go to eat." ”

Because there were foreign guests, they didn't eat together. Cui Keyin and Jiang's lunch was set up in Chunshan Residence.

Cui Keyin bowed and retreated, staring at the kitchen to serve the food, until the melons and fruits were served, and then returned to the Spring Mountain Residence.

After lunch, Tang Lun hurriedly said goodbye, saying that he would write a poem to criticize Lu Xian and win support for Qiao Yang in Shilin.

Jiang and Cui Keyin complained: "Seeing that the spring festival is approaching, he doesn't say that he studies hard, and he is busy with these things every day, which is really sad." ”

Cui Keyin deeply agrees, even if he is talented and doesn't study well, how can he pass the exam? Isn't entering the country to study just to prepare for next year's Spring Festival?

Jiang said: "Your aunt is heartbroken for him, but he doesn't listen to people's persuasion, and he is so busy with other people's affairs all day long that he can't see anyone." ”

"It's not like that, Lu Xian has gone too far. If a precedent is set and the rules are broken, the lifters will not have a peaceful life. Cui Keyin said.

"You don't talk to him well, but you talk to him. Nothing is as important as next year's spring. Jiang sighed.

The two were talking, and the little maid said at the door of the banquet room: "Miss, Miss Yao Liu is here." ”

Miss Yao Liu, whose best name is Huidong, was so excited that her face turned red, and when she saw Cui Keyin, she said, "Have you heard of it?" The Queen Mother summoned Dingxing Marquis to the palace to discuss Miss Li Wu's marriage. ”

As a senior gossip in the famous circle of Beijing. As soon as Miss Yao Liu got the news, she immediately ran to Xinglin Hutong. A look of "the queen mother wants to choose a side concubine for King Jin".

The schadenfreude in her little eyes was too obvious, Cui Keyin was angry with her, and deliberately sighed faintly, and said: "The prince originally had a rule of concubines on both sides, and the queen mother did this out of love for King Jin." It's just that the ready-made people in front of you can't see it, why do you look at Miss Li Wu? She's not very good. ”

"Put the ready-made person in front of you"? Yao Huidong was stunned, who was the person in front of him? Isn't that her? Even if it is a side concubine, it is also a concubine, and it is also married into the royal family. Married to the Prince.

Cui Keyin looked at her stunned appearance, lowered her head and smiled, and asked Lu Ying: "Bring the newly made rose cake." ”

Yao Huidong couldn't sit still anymore, jumped up suddenly, and said, "Next month, my grandmother will be saliva, and I have to make two handkerchiefs to celebrate my grandmother's birthday." That's the farewell. ”

She came and went in a hurry, and she really came and went like the wind.

Cui Keyin didn't leave her and sent her to the Hanging Flower Gate. Seeing her leave and about to turn around, Zhou Heng came out from behind the pillar and said, "I wanted to come over just now." The maids say you have guests. ”

Cui Keyin asked rhetorically: "So you've been standing here?" ”

"Not really. But I heard that the guest was leaving, so I came over and happened to meet him. I had to stay aside. Zhou Heng said slowly.

He's very well-informed. Cui Keyin let him go to the banquet room and served tea. Speaking of the Queen Mother's summons to Li Mingfeng, she said, "This is the side concubine?" ”

They haven't gotten married yet. Even the concubines have been arranged. Thanks to Cui Zhenyi, he had been worried that the Queen Mother would take his life.

Listening to her sour tone, Zhou Heng couldn't hide the smile in his eyes, and said with a smile: "I didn't agree, even if the Queen Mother made an order, I have a way to let her take it back." ”

"Huh?" Cui Keyin raised her eyebrows at him.

Zhou Heng drank the tea in one gulp and said, "Let's have another cup, and I will talk to the eldest uncle with a dry mouth." ”

That's what it means to not want to talk about it. Cui Keyin held on and said, "Did the Marquis of Dingxing look for you?" ”

"yes. said that his daughter was unspeakably expensive, which made me laugh. I refused. He leaned over with a salivating face and said, "I know so much about righteousness, should you reward me with something?" ”

Lu Ying, who was waiting in the room, quietly retreated.

Cui Keyin said: "People are the daughters of the Hou Mansion, they want to have status, they want to have good looks, you say you refuse, you will refuse?" ”

Zhou Heng fanned his nose with his hand and said, "Who smoked vinegar in the house, why is it so sour." ”

In a word, Cui Keyin laughed and said, "What did you do to her, she didn't marry you?" ”

Although the Dingxing Marquis Mansion is a third-rate noble, the young lady who came out will not want to be a concubine.

Zhou Heng looked innocent and said, "There is nothing to do." ”

Huanxi is really good at seizing the opportunity, and said outside the door: "Lord, the slave has something to report." ”

"Come in." Zhou Heng said, turned his head and explained to Cui Keyin: "If there is nothing important, he will not be so reckless." ”

Cui Keyin's jaw head.

Huanxi bowed in, said two words in Zhou Heng's ear, and bowed out again.

Zhou Heng had a surprised and funny expression on his face, and said, "I didn't expect it to be as she wished." ”

Cui Keyin looked at him puzzled.

Zhou Heng said with a smile: "The Queen Mother summoned Dingxing Hou into the palace, for the sake of Miss Li Wu's marriage, but not for the purpose of registering as the side concubine of King Jin, but for the purpose of accepting Miss Li Wu into the palace." ”

"Admit her into the palace?" Cui Keyin's jaw almost dropped.

Zhou Heng rarely saw Cui Keyin like this, and said happily: "Now you can rest assured?" ”

"The Queen Mother is really wise, since she is unspeakably expensive, she is the destiny of being the queen and the queen mother, then enter the palace as a concubine, give birth to a prince, and have the opportunity to become the queen mother in the future. I just wonder if the emperor will be unhappy? Cui Keyin also laughed, and suspected that this was Zhou Heng's secret ghost: "You made this happen, right?" ”

Zhou Heng denied it: "It's not me." ”

Regardless of whether he did it or not, in short, Li Xiuxiu's marriage is a foregone conclusion, and Cui Keyin is in a much better mood.

Zhou Heng took the opportunity to say: "Didn't you say that you were going to Fengtai to pick up a few pots of flowers?" Why don't we go and see it in a few days, and if there is a good shuttle, buy a few pots and plant them back. There are too few flowers and trees in the palace. ”

There is a sense that she wants to decorate her future home.

The current weather is neither hot nor cold, just to go shopping, Cui Keyin agreed.

The two of them are happy to talk here, but Li Xiuxiu is going to die or live: "Who wants to marry that wretched?" I don't do serious things every day, I can only paint, can I keep the country......"

Before he finished speaking, he was covered by Li Mingfeng: "My little ancestor, you keep quiet." ”

and then continued to say unconcealed from her mouth, she had to be impeached and cursed by the imperial history to destroy the country.

Li Xiuxiu cried: "What does it matter to me that the emperor has no heirs, why should I enter the palace to give birth to him?" ”

In the sixth or seventh year of Emperor An's wedding, the queen had nothing to do, and the concubines had nothing to do, and the imperial historians had nothing to do to brush up their sense of existence, so they impeached him for not actively cultivating, so that none of the wives and wives succeeded in conceiving/pregnant. No matter how good Emperor An's temper is, every time he sees such a twist and turn, he is so angry, but when he is angry, the stomachs of the concubines are still deflated.

Li Mingfeng released rumors, the Queen Mother first listened to it as a joke, and Ma Liang reminded the Queen Mother: "Since it is unspeakably expensive, presumably the little prince should be on this woman." ”

The more the Queen Mother thought about it, the more justified she felt, this was not a gift from God to Emperor Zhi'an, what was it? If such a woman is not included in the palace, who will she accept? (To be continued......)
