"Is there anything I should know?" Zhao Lingyi looked at Zhao Muqing's expression, but she was afraid that there was really something, so she also asked with a straight face.

"I have received news that the concubine will summon you during the Double Ninth Festival next month and let you participate in the Double Ninth Festival banquet, and the post will probably be sent tomorrow, so my grandmother will let someone teach you etiquette." Zhao Muqing was a little helpless about this somewhat ignorant sister, why didn't he even know about his life?

"Chung Yeung Festival palace banquet?" Zhao Lingyi was shocked.

The Chung Yeung Festival is said to be next month, but it is now the end of the month, and it is almost only about ten days.

Although it is said that there is a chrysanthemum appreciation party in the palace every year during the Double Ninth Festival, it doesn't matter to those who themselves, how can they summon themselves on a whim this year?

I remember my grandmother once said that a few decades ago, the girls of the Dingguo Mansion would also be invited to the banquet in the palace, but since my grandfather went, there has been no such honor in the Dingguo Mansion, why is there such a thing after many years? Could it really be related to Nangong Zhan?

"Will you summon me alone, or will all the girls in our family go?" Zhao Lingyi also began to worry a little.

"You're the only one in our house. There are only two girls in the second room, you and the third sister, but the third sister is a concubine, so naturally she does not have this qualification. Grandmother attaches great importance to this matter, and I am afraid that Grandma Jiaoxi will be able to arrive this afternoon. ”

Zhao Muqing said very calmly, she is a person who knows proportion, she and her eldest sister are not qualified to participate in the palace banquet, although she is also a serious girl in the house, but where is her father's official position, she still can't go to such an occasion.

Zhao Lingyi finally understood, if she really wanted to enter the palace. Naturally, someone must teach him the etiquette in the palace, otherwise when he arrives in the palace, he will make a mistake if he can't keep it, and if he collides with that nobleman, it will become a disaster.

She asked herself that she could do everything else, but she was really not sure about entering the palace. In her previous life and present life, she had never had the experience of entering the palace. It's strange about the rules in the palace or something.

Since such news has spread in the house, there will naturally be no shortage of people who are ready to move, and the marriage of the eldest sister and the second sister has been decided. Naturally, there is no such idea of showing up in public, but there is also a third-sister Zhao Yanwan with outstanding looks in the house, and she has always been a person with lofty ambitions, and it is a good thing to go to the palace to cling to nobles. How could she not be tempted?

Not to mention that Zhao Yanwan and Lu's mother and daughter had an idea in their hearts, even Zhao Zhongkang felt that this was a rare opportunity. If the eldest daughter can also get this opportunity, the natural one may be much older than the younger daughter, in any case, the eldest daughter's outstanding appearance is a recognized fact. When the two children stand together, anyone can immediately see that they are elevated.

The Dingguo Mansion is in decline and is very unpopular. During this time, Zhao Zhongkang was looking for a husband for Zhao Yanwan, and he obviously felt it. In addition, Zhao Yanwan is the daughter of a concubine, so she is even more disliked.

I don't want to suddenly be happy from the sky, there is such a good thing, how can I not grasp it firmly? 、

In the face of such temptation, the selfish side of human nature is exposed, and Zhao Zhongkang's idea is that he will fight for a glimmer of hope for his eldest daughter no matter what.

"The palace will not invite Sister Ling to the palace for no reason, I heard that it is the concubine who wants to choose the princess for the prince of Yanwang, so she will post widely, and even our house has not been missed, this is a rare good thing." Zhao Zhongkang came to his mother very strangely to say goodbye, in order to mention this matter.

She won't come to her mother's Ninghui Hall now when she is free, because every time she comes, she will be blamed, so it is better to live her own little life in Fangcao Garden.

"Our house is now not as good as the face of previous years, your sister was like Sister Ling'er's age, she still went to the palace, but Sister Ling was twelve years old, but it was the first time." Mrs. Shi couldn't help but think of the glory of the mansion many years ago, but it was a pity that things were people.

She had long given up the idea of letting Sister Ling attend such an occasion, but she didn't want to have such an opportunity.

"That's what Mother said. If the children in our mansion can climb the Yanwang Mansion this time, our mansion will have a more status in the capital in the future. ”

Zhao Zhongkang no longer thought about how to rely on his own efforts to create a good situation for Fuzhong, but thought about how to rely on his daughter. The two daughters are growing up day by day, and the delicate and lovely ones make him think a lot. Choosing a relationship for the eldest daughter in person is not only to hope that the eldest daughter can live well, but also to pull some support for his family.

Listening to Zhao Zhongkang's words, the Dou family scoffed a little, the second master was a good person back then, but in the past few years, he only had such thoughts, and he was not as ambitious as Erlang.

"What my son means is that if the post in the palace has no name, this time I will let Sister Yan enter the palace first." Zhao Zhongkang said while watching his mother's face attentively.

Zhao Zhongkang's words made Dou so surprised that he almost dropped the tea bowl in his hand to the ground, so can he say it casually? I really haven't seen anyone send their daughter to the palace banquet, and the second master is really ridiculous.

Naturally, the Dou family would not say anything at this time, but there was still the old lady, and he would never let the second master do such a wrong thing.

"How do you have that thought?" This is the crime of bullying the king, even if there is no clear edict, only the concubines in the palace will attend such a banquet, if the Dingguo Mansion sends the daughter of the concubine to the house in a good manner, and people find out, I am afraid that it will be condemned.

The son thought, the young and the young are orderly, Sister Yan is older, and her appearance is more outstanding than Sister Ling, if she goes to the palace, I am afraid that the chance of being selected will be greater. Although her mother loves Sister Ling, in the end, Sister Ling is more ordinary than Sister Yan. What's more, the two children rarely go out, and others don't know each other, even if we send Sister Yan into the palace, others can't recognize it, who will know the daughter we sent into the palace? ”

Zhao Zhongkang came back from the yamen, and after knowing about this, he thought about it with all his might, and he felt that the best way was for Li Dai Taostiff and let Sister Yan enter the palace in the name of the eldest daughter in the house. If you can be selected, it is okay to marry as a concubine.

Sister Yan'er's family affairs have always been looking for candidates, but he has seen several families before, and he has also discussed with Liu Yushi's mansion several times, but Liu Yushi's mansion is not very satisfied with Sister Yan'er. It seems that the dislike is out of the house, and there is a lot of prevarication these days.

If Sister Yan can enter the palace and get Qingmu by luck, wouldn't she have to worry about it anymore? At that time, the mansion can be re-established with the help of Yan Wangfu, and Sister Yan herself can also get a good family business.

Although it is said that the prince of Yan Wang is not as noble as the prince in the palace, it is not bad. The prince of King Yan will be King Yan in the future, and he is also a high-ranking person. Not everyone can climb high. If you miss this opportunity. It's hard to find such a good thing again.

In addition, the prince of Yan Wang himself has seen it, he is a rare good child, and if he can be his son-in-law, it will naturally be a very face-saving thing.

Mrs. Shi listened to her son's words. I was almost.

Don't say that there is no candidate in the palace yet, even if it must be selected by the government of the country, can you still let go of the daughter of the concubine? He didn't want to think about it, what kind of place was it in Yanwang Mansion? Don't say it's a little girl. Frankly speaking, Ling Jie'er is already a high climb as a princess. I'm afraid that the concubine suddenly remembered her own home. Just a casual sentence, he had a lot of ideas, and even did not hesitate to mess up his concubines.

This obstacle is really getting more and more confused. He sent his concubine's daughter as a concubine, not to mention how big the crime is, is it fair to Sister Ling? What will Sister Ling do in the future? Is it a concubine's daughter? If this is known to the Li family. As soon as the lawsuit goes up, it is really the end of my own house.

"If so. What should Sister Ling do? ”

"Mother loves Sister Ling the most, and if she wants to come to Mother to say a few words, Sister Ling is also willing to listen." In the past few years, Sister Ling'er has not treated herself as well as before, but she is closer to the Dou family, but she has always respected her mother the most.

"I don't have the face to say this to my child, if you think you have the face to say it, just say it yourself. If I were a child, I would have no face for you. "The old lady's position has always been firm.

Zhao Zhongkang thought about it, and if he wanted this matter to be hidden, he could only ask Sister Ling to agree, otherwise even if it was a thing, there would be trouble.

Lao Taijun and Zhao Zhongkang didn't know about the matter between Zhao Lingyi and Nangong Zhan, but the Dou family was very clear, the concubine was willing to summon Sister Ling, so she naturally had a plan in her heart, as long as Sister Ling was good, the matter would probably be decided. At this time, the Dingguo Mansion changed people, isn't this looking for death?

"The second master is just biased, is it possible that he still plans to take the life of the family to make trouble? We all know that you feel sorry for Sister Yan, but the second master sent Sister Yan Li Dai Taozhuang into the palace as Sister Ling, in case she is selected, is it difficult for Sister Yan to admit that she is the daughter of the concubine? "It's really pitiful for Sister Ling to have such a father.

"This-" What should Sister Ling do, Zhao Zhongkang naturally didn't think about it, and he didn't plan to think so much about her, after all, his mother loved her, and he wouldn't really treat her badly, but when Dou asked coldly, he really didn't know how to answer.

"It's great, just put her in your name as a sister-in-law, and raise her as a concubine. Could it be that I, as a father, can still treat him badly? Zhao Zhongkang said with some annoyance.

This Dou family is really, Sister Ling was not born to her, why is she always protecting? It's just that she can't see Sister Yan'er's goodness at all, if she can see Sister Yan'er's good, she would have made the decision a long time ago and let Sister Yan be recorded in her name.

Dou Shi asked to understand this, but he didn't say much, there was always a mother-in-law who presided over the overall situation, and he mentioned a few words in time, so as not to say too much but make more mistakes.

"You threw this idea away to me early, if it is known, I am afraid that our house will not even know how to die. The people in the palace are so easy to fool? What's more, don't forget that Sister Ling has a few very decent uncles in front of the emperor, and an aunt who has been favored in the palace for many years, isn't it a dream if you want to change her? If Sister Ling doesn't make trouble herself, can her family not make trouble? ”

Mrs. Shi glared at her son, she didn't even want to say more to this confused son, no wonder the Dingguo Mansion has not been treated well these years, how can such a confused mind be successful? Grandpa Lao Guo is a smart person, and he is not a stupid person, why is his son so confused?

Zhao Zhongkang forgot all about this, but he was full of satisfaction thinking about Zhao Yanwan's bright future, and when his mother talked about it at this time, he remembered that it seemed that the prince of Yan Wang and Dingyuan Bofu were still related. And maybe the prince of Yan Wang also knows Sister Ling, so it really can't be changed.

It's no wonder that Zhao Zhongkang doesn't know, in the past few years, although there are many people in the mansion who have seen the prince of Yan Wang, no one would have thought that there would be such a day, even if a few girls and the Dou family found clues, they were all afraid of ruining Zhao Lingyi's reputation, so they just hid it.

Zhao Zhongkang has always only been related to Zhao Yanwan, so he won't know these inside information.

It's just that Zhao Yanwan can't enter the palace as a concubine, he is very unwilling and can't change, can't he let Sister Yan'er go with him?

"But I thought about it, but fortunately, my mother reminded me in time to save my son from becoming an intoxicating person in the house. It's just that even if Li Dai Tao is stiff, it is always okay to let Sister Yan go to the palace to see the world together. Zhao Zhongkang said, glancing at his wife.

If you want to enter the palace, you must have the status of a concubine, and if you want to give Zhao Yanwan the status of a concubine, one way is to let Aunt Lu become a flat wife, and her daughter will naturally have the status of a concubine, and the other way is to let Zhao Xinwan be recorded in the name of the Dou family, so that she is also a concubine, although the concubine who came so is not as good as the concubine born to Mrs. Zhengtou, but it is also much higher than the concubine.

No matter which of these two goals can be achieved, for Zhao Zhongkang, it is worth rejoicing.

How could Dou not understand the meaning of Zhao Zhongkang's words, but Dou didn't want either way. Even if she doesn't have her own biological children, she wouldn't want to remember such a daughter who will never think about her in the name of herself, giving people such benefits for nothing.

Seeing that Dou Shi didn't speak, Zhao Zhongkang hated in his heart.

Is there such a virtuous woman in front of you? It's just a girl born in a broken family, and being able to be the housewife in her own house is already a creation, but now she doesn't respect her husband? At this time, she needed to let her speak, but she actually pretended to be dumb and refused to say a word.

Zhao Zhongkang was about to get angry at the Dou family, and he didn't want Shi Lao Taijun to speak first.

"You're not as sensible as your daughter-in-law, so it's better for you to quickly accept this foolish mind. Although our house is not like those century-old families, there has never been a time when there is no distinction between the concubines and the concubines. "Mrs. Shi doesn't agree with this kind of thing, there is no shortage of Zhao Yanwan in the house, and naturally there is no need to raise such an ignorant child as a daughter. (To be continued) R655
