Chapter 30 Reluctance to be dignified is not the emperor
Similar to Xiao Changting's guess, the old guys in the court who had their own thoughts couldn't bear it for too long and mentioned the matter of choosing a concubine to Xiao Changting again.
This time, they succeeded. And Xin Muyuan, on the day of the selection of the concubine, was also carried into the palace as a specially invited nobleman.
However, Xie Zhan did not follow again.
When Xin Muyuan and Mu Yi came to the living room, Xiao Changting habitually looked behind her, and when he saw only Mu Yi, he was slightly stunned, and asked, "Didn't your new follower come?" ”
In his impression, Xie Zhan has been sticking to Xin Muyuan more and more since he was blasted out of the living room that day, except for going to the toilet.
Fortunately, Xin Muyuan's temper is good, if it were him, Xie Zhan, this kid, would have been beaten many times!
Xin Muyuan shrugged his shoulders and said, "He said he was not feeling well. As for whether he is uncomfortable or afraid of being recognized, I am afraid only he knows in his own heart.
"Okay," Xiao Changting's gaze was a little lost, he still wanted to see what the scene was when Xie Zhan was recognized in public. Will it be said that the prince of the Protector's Mansion is sick in the brain, or will he say that he will only run behind the woman if he has no interest?
Or is it that the son of the world is in love for a long time, just to make up for the guilt in his heart? Xiao Changting shuddered when he thought of the last possibility: "What I told you before ......"
Xin Muyuan showed a sly smile at him and said, "Don't worry, leave it to me, the result will be satisfactory to you!" ”
Xiao Changting looked at her smile, but felt that he was not so relieved in his heart.
"You're not going to give me anything wrong, are you?"
"Hey, what kind of person is Xin Ye, can you still not know? Rest assured! I do things, you can rest assured! ”
On October days, the leaves turn yellow. The leaves fluttered and hung on the branches, and the wind blew gently and fell down with a "whoosh".
The position of the concubine is set in the Fangxiu Palace, which is large and empty, and can accommodate 2,000 people. After all the courtiers and their families are settled, a large number of seats can be vacated for the women selected from all over the country to stand.
Xiao Changting sat behind the curtain of the high platform, and the luxurious bead curtain blocked him...... Handsome and handsome face. Xin Muyuan stood in front of the red hazy curtain.
"This ...... What's going on? ”
"Who is this woman? Why has the old man never seen it? ”
"I see that she doesn't behave like a mortal, which kind of relative of the emperor should she be?"
"Nonsense, the emperor's relatives are so little, they can be counted on one hand, why have we never seen her?"
The ministers whispered, confused and annoyed, especially where she stood.
That position was too high, higher than the position of the emperor's personal living eunuch, which made them vaguely feel a sense of crisis. And this sense of crisis makes them very uncomfortable.
Du Shangshu was the only man who did not participate in the discussion of this topic, he picked up the wine glass on the table, noticed that the emperor did not move, did not dare to drink, and put it down again, feeling extremely depressed.
I'm afraid that apart from Du Mingyue's group of juniors, as well as those who have had contact with Mrs. Xie, no one knows this woman with elegant behavior on the high platform better than him.
He was a little glad that he didn't embarrass her too much at the beginning, otherwise, with the strength behind her, he was afraid that he would not have a good time.
The most shocked and regretful one was the family of the Protector of the Kingdom. The husband and wife stared at the woman standing in front of the curtain, their eyes were straight, and they couldn't say a word for a long time with their mouths open.
She looked around in confusion for an answer, but no one present could answer her.
"I've seen all my lords, ladies and gentlemen. The people's daughter Xin Muyuan is a noble person specially invited by the emperor this time. ”
Xin Muyuan spoke, and those who had seen Xin Muyuan gasped and looked at the Huguo family with complicated expressions.
"Isn't this the Lady of the Prince who the Duchess of the Protector despises the most? How did he become a special guest of the emperor! ”
"Then who knows? Maybe this woman is so charming that she has fascinated the emperor? ”
"Isn't the emperor smarter than Xie Shizi? Xie Shizi didn't look at it, can the emperor look at it? ”
"It's probably turnip and cabbage, everyone has their own love."
The ladies began to whisper.
Xin Muyuan smiled slightly, and said: "I think everyone already knows that the emperor invited the people's daughter to come over, it is to appreciate the face of the people's girl, I believe in the vision of the people's daughter, I hope that the people's daughter can participate in the selection of this concubine, and select the emperor's favorite pillow person from among the very good daughters." ”
Ladies: "......"
Mrs. Luo was the first to speak, and said, "Look, I have long said that this girl is clever, intelligent, and likable, and she will definitely be a rich and noble person in the future." You see, isn't that what I said? ”
After talking to others with a smile, he said to Xin Muyuan with a kind face: "Muyuan, my aunt is already protecting ...... When I first saw you, I liked you very much, and I thought your face was the best. Look, what my aunt said is right, right? ”
Xin Muyuan smiled innocently and said, "Auntie, your ability to face this is awesome!" Then I will borrow your auspicious words to wish me more and more business of Liying Shengxiang! ”
Mrs. Love's face froze for a moment, and she smiled awkwardly and withdrew her gaze. There was a lady next to him who let out a low sneer, and the lady with eyes was already busy bombing with sycophants.
Almost as soon as Mrs. Luo's words fell, Mrs. Du had already spoken, "Mu Yuan, do you remember your aunt?" We've seen it at the Luo family's birthday banquet. Maybe you don't remember, after all, we only have a rush relationship. At that time, my aunt liked you very much and thought you were gentle, generous, kind and reliable. Just that time...... Later, when I went home, I often talked to your Uncle Du about you. Hey, my family is not blessed, only Mingyue's daughter...... If I have a son, I will marry you back! ”
Du Shangshu, who was sitting next to him, had a dark face.
The lady who likes gossip has already laughed, and turned out the grudge between Du Mingyue and Xin Muyuan, and everyone laughed, only Mrs. Du's face became darker and darker, and she glared at her husband next to her in annoyance.
It's really a big official to play prestige, this is good, and it directly broke my daughter's lifelong event!
With the beginning of Mrs. Luo, Mrs. Zhang, Mrs. Wang, and all the family wives in the family who have daughters participating in the draft have to jump out and praise Xin Muyuan.
However, as the center point of the rainbow fart, although Xin Muyuan listened to all these obedient words into her ears, she did not take any of them as the truth, and the expression on her face was always faint.
When they were almost done, Xin Muyuan opened his mouth unhurriedly and said, "The people's daughter is trusted by the emperor, so she naturally wants to give a satisfactory answer to the emperor. To this end, the folk girl deliberately set up three checkpoints. ”
