Princess Huihe laughed loudly: "The princess is not a thing...... and felt that what she said was wrong, but she didn't know how to answer, she just looked at the five princes with a smile.

"Can you play with me?" The fifth prince blinked his eyes and looked at Empress Chen and Princess Huihe with hope.

Seeing that the third prince was quietly pulling the fifth prince behind him, his face looked very nervous, and Queen Chen also laughed.

"Naturally, I can play with you, and I only play with you." Princess Huihe didn't seem to see the embarrassment of the third prince, but she took care of herself and climbed with the fifth prince.

"Are you really just playing with me?" After that, he tilted his head and thought for a while, and then asked, "Then can I choose this princess myself?" ”

The five princesses naturally have to be chosen according to Queen Chen's intentions. Princess Huihe had a trace of embarrassment on her face, so she looked at Queen Chen, but Queen Chen replied simply: "Since it is only with you to play, it is naturally up to you to choose Ah Rui." ”

The eyes of the five princes narrowed with laughter, and the third prince was a little surprised when he saw that Empress Chen actually made such a promise, and he was a little surprised that it was Princess Huihe, but he didn't expect Empress Chen to be so cheerful, and the surprise in his expression flashed.

The third prince seemed to think that the fifth prince was too formless, and was about to open his mouth to let him settle down, when he heard a sound of footsteps coming into the inner hall from far and near. can make noise in the Yongyan Palace, except for the lord of Wanhua, there are only a pair of children of Princess Huihe.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for the crystal chain to fall. The first to trot in turned out to be the county lord Wanhua.

She was afraid that the county lord of Wanhua would fall, and she didn't dare to be presumptuous in front of the queen, so she could only keep instructing behind her: "County Lord, you go slower, County Lord, be careful of your step." ”

Lord Wanhua ignored her worries in the slightest, and trotted around the screen. When he looked up and saw that Zheng Rui was really there, his eyes lit up instantly. She had just overheard the palace people say that the third prince and the fifth prince had come to Yongyan Palace, so she ran over in a panic.

He went straight forward and saluted the queen mother and the eldest princess. After Empress Chen said that she was exempt, the county lord of Wanhua walked up to the five princes, and his tone was strongly condemning: "Uncle Fifth Emperor is not trustworthy, last time you said you took me out of the palace to play, last time you avoided me when you entered the palace, this time I didn't plan to let me know, when will you take me out of the palace?" ”

The fifth prince's expression was a little embarrassed. Seeing that the county lord of Wanhua looked very indignant, he said in a low voice: "You be quiet, I asked my imperial brother last time, and he said that he couldn't take you out." ”

At this moment, even the third prince's expression was a little unnatural, he was standing beside the fifth prince, and after hearing the words of the fifth prince, he subconsciously took a few steps back.

But the fifth prince didn't realize that he had dragged his brother into the water. He hesitated and said to Wanhua County. "Otherwise, it's okay for me to give you the snowball, but you can't let me take you out of the palace anymore."

Snowball is a Persian cat, the whole body is as white as snow, and the name was taken by the three princesses some time ago.

The county lord of Wanhua looked like he had been deceived, shook off the hands of the five princes, and muttered: "Who wants your broken cat, I only know that you are not trustworthy Uncle Wudao." If you don't take me out of the palace to play. I'm going to ignore you in the future. ”

Empress Chen knew what was going on after listening to a few words.

Since the county lord of Wanhua moved to Yongyan Palace, his temperament has become dull, and he has lost his temper like Fang Cai to make a small temperament, and it is the first time that it makes Queen Chen feel very rare (It is reasonable to say that the county lord of Wanhua and the five princes have only met a few times, and they should not be very familiar, but I don't know how the five princes are in line with the heart of the county lord of Wanhua.

After Lord Wanhua lost his temper, Ke Qin and Ke Yunshuang entered the inner hall one after the other. Seeing that there were more people in the room, there was no surprise on their faces, they had seen the third prince and the fifth prince, and the two saluted one by one.

Ke Yunshuang was still young, and he only knew that Lu Dao followed his brother to salute, and he didn't know what happened. On the contrary, Ke Qin was already the governor, and he secretly glanced at the third prince and the fifth prince a few times.

The county lord of Wanhua was still sulking with his head down, the fifth prince was tired of heartlessness, he thought he had explained it clearly, but he didn't pay attention to the county lord of Wanhua anymore.

Empress Chen couldn't help laughing when she saw it, now the fifth prince is still a child, I am afraid that because of this, she will meet the heart of the county lord of Wanhua.

Seeing that the county lord Wanhua was still hanging his head, he smiled and said: "Dan'er, don't blame your Fifth Emperor Uncle anymore, the palace is strictly forbidden, so he naturally can't take you out of the palace at will." The imperial grandmother promised you that after a while, how about letting your fifth emperor uncle take you out of the palace to play? ”

The county lord of Wanhua has a single name of "Dan", and after giving her the title of "Wanhua", only Queen Chen will name her as "Dan'er".

When the county lord of Wanhua heard Empress Chen say this, his face became happy. But he didn't thank him, but trotted straight to Queen Chen, and rolled into her arms: "It's still the emperor's grandmother who is the best for me." ”

Empress Chen patted the back of the county lord of Wanhua, and her gaze became far-reaching.

Empress Chen let the county lord Wanhua out of the palace, but it was almost June. Although he left the palace, he only went from Yongyan Palace to the eldest princess's mansion. Empress Chen was not at ease, and asked Liu Yi, the female official next to her, to follow.

And this time, it was the eldest princess who sent an invitation and invited many girls in Beijing to come to the eldest princess's mansion to enjoy the flowers.

said that it was to enjoy the flowers, but only invited unmarried girls over the age of thirteen in Beijing, and they were all sons of a family ≮ It was clear that they wanted to enjoy the flowers, but in fact, they chose concubines for the five princes, and all the houses in Beijing knew it very well. In the Yuanhou Mansion, only the third girl, Gu Qingwan, and the fifth girl, Gu Qingyan, received the invitation.

Whether you want to marry this family or not, this is an invitation sent by the eldest princess, and the girl who received the invitation is naturally going to go.

The fourth and sixth girls who did not receive the post were naturally very happy in their hearts, while Gu Qingyan cried aggrievedly in Xiao Sun's house. She is the concubine of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion, and she feels that she has a great future, so she is naturally unwilling to marry a fool like the fifth prince.

Xiao Sun comforted Gu Qingyan for a while, but Gu Qingyan was still a little embarrassed, and even Xiao Sun's heart was a little bored.

"I heard that more than a dozen girls were invited to the Eldest Princess's Mansion to 'enjoy the flowers' this time, that is, the six girls of the Xie family of the Liguo Mansion were invited. Seeing that Gu Qingyan listened, Xiao Sun said again, "Besides, only two of our family have gone, and your third sister is in front of you, if you want to choose someone from our Dingyuan Marquis Mansion, you must also choose her first." You go, it's just the right age, just make up the numbers. ”

The hatred on Gu Qingyan's face flashed: "Isn't Gu Qingwan unable to marry Lu, but it's just right to match her with a fool." ”

Seeing that Gu Qingyan was a "fool", Xiao Sun scolded him loudly: "Don't say anything about 'fools' in the future, that's the prince." This is in Jinhui Hall, if it is outside, it is heard by others, but it is unacceptable. Always remember to keep your mouth tight, or you won't know when you will get goods for me and your father. ”

Gu Qingyan was dissatisfied with Xiao Sun's strict waiting, but she couldn't refute it, so she said: "What I'm saying is not angry, looking at the current appearance of the third sister, I can't find any suitable people in Beijing." It's better to marry the fifth prince casually, and be the princess of the princess, is she still wronged? ”

It is said that Gu Qingwan gave the fifth prince, and she took half of the advantage.

Xiao Sun's thought about it really felt feasible, and only then did he smile and nod Gu Qingyan's head and said: "As far as you have a lot of ideas, this is to choose a concubine for the prince, and it is not up to us to have the final say, it depends on the meaning of the heavenly family." Don't worry, the old lady is reluctant to marry you. Maybe you're not uncommon, but there are people in Beijing who value this family business. ”

Gu Qingyan pursed her lips, but she didn't speak.

And on that side, Old Madam Gu was really worried about this matter. Tell the three girls in their house how difficult it is to get the right family affair, she has experienced it herself. Moreover, she only learned a few days ago that Gu Mingde had privately rejected the solicitation of the second prince.

This battle for the throne has always been either/or, even if they did not stand in line with the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion, the second prince was afraid that they would have already classified their Dingyuan Marquis Mansion to the line of Empress Chen.

If Gu Qing Wanzhen married the fifth prince, it would be beneficial to the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion. If this candidate is Gu Qingyan, the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion will pay a concubine to enter, and Old Madam Gu is still a little reluctant. However, Gu Qingwan's current family affairs are not high or low, and for her and the Marquis of Dingyuan, there is no shortage of good relatives.

Therefore, on the first day of the flower-viewing banquet, Mrs. Gu sent a lot of head jewelry to the Yuanxiang Pavilion. Early in the morning of the second day, he sent the jade plate to the Yuanxiang Pavilion again, and personally helped Gu Qingwan to freshen up. Before going out, he also asked the jade cup to take the place of the peach branch and go out with Gu Qingwan, so that he could always remind her on the side.

She and Gu Qingyan sat in the same carriage, and in comparison, Gu Qingyan's dress this time was dwarfed. The two stood together, and naturally Gu Qingwan, who was dressed up, was more eye-catching.

And Gu Qingyan was compared to Gu Qingwan, but for the first time, there was no resentment in her heart.

"The third sister is dressed like this today, it looks so good." When Gu Qingyan saw Gu Qingwan, she deliberately complimented her.

Gu Qingwan just sneered, didn't answer, and then went straight into the carriage without saying a word.

Since yesterday, I knew that Old Madam Gu did not send anything to Gu Qingyan's Splendid Pavilion, and Gu Qingwan knew what Old Madam Gu had planned. She didn't make a fuss, the jade plate dressed her and let her play with everything, that is, Mrs. Gu sent the jade cup to go out with her today, and she didn't say anything, she accepted it one by one.

It's just that he went out of the door of the Dingyuan Marquis's Mansion, but he couldn't help but take care of the old lady. (To be continued)
