Volume 2 Light and Young Chapter 58 Wishful Thinking

No matter how the rivers and lakes felt about the relationship between the emperor and the princess, Luo Liyao was really busy because of Luo Xizheng's will.

"This is too bad! This is written, there are obvious scars on the body, it must not work, why send it? And this ......" Luo Liyao slowly walked through a pile of show girl picture scrolls spread out, looked at them carefully one by one, and tapped on the picture scroll when she encountered a show girl who did not meet the requirements, and the maid holding the picture scroll immediately put away the picture scroll and prepared to return it to the Ministry of Rites.

Shi Yuezhen sat with Xiang Tea in both hands and Tang Haoqi watching the play.

"Hey, hey, I'm dazzled by such a cursory look, Her Royal Highness the Princess is really amazing." Tang Haoqi looked at the many maids standing in the pavilion holding the picture scrolls, and only felt that his head was buzzing, "After watching this batch and batch, my eyes have to be blind." ”

Before he could finish speaking, another group of maids took the scrolls in their hands and retreated to the Internal Affairs Department to register, while other maids waiting outside the pavilion rushed in.

"Too much, isn't it...... If you look at it this way, when will it be a head? Tang Haoqi patted his head and silently stuffed a handful of snacks in his mouth.

"This is the right-age unmarried woman of all the families in the entire Tianqi, do you think there will be fewer?" Shi Yuezhen sighed twice and said, "Six passes, eight mansions, ten towns and seventy-two cities, this is still something that ordinary people can't participate...... I'm afraid I'll have to watch it for days. ”

"Ahh Tang Haoqi was secretly speechless, only feeling strange, "It turns out that this is the emperor's draft." ”

"It's still early, but now it's just a portrait." Shi Yuezhen took a sip of hot tea and explained, "Wait until she retires all those who don't meet the requirements, and then screens out the best of them, and then these women have the initial qualifications to enter the palace to run for election - from the physical examination to the subsequent three-month upbringing, it is still only the stage of testing, if you want to stay completely, you don't have to wait until the personal election." ”

"I know, I know, the meaning of personal selection is that the emperor goes to see those show girls in person, and he will keep which one he likes, right?" Speaking of which, Tang Haoqi was inexplicably a little excited, not that he was excited that there were beautiful women to see, but he just thought of the taste of this kind of many beauties at his own choosing-it's so cool!

"Are you stupid? Don't understand what that 'sole responsibility' means? Shi Yue really patted his head angrily and said, "When you choose it yourself...... Your Majesty probably won't go. ”

"Huh? Isn't this the choice of his concubine? He really doesn't care at all, huh? Tang Haoqi hurriedly lowered his voice, secretly glanced at Luo Liyao, who was screening the portrait of the show girl not far away, and approached Shi Yuezhen, "He's not afraid that the princess will deliberately choose some crooked melons and cracked dates for him?" ”

"Call you stupid, you're really stupid." Shi Yuezhen stretched out a finger to push him back, and said, "You've seen my sister give my brother."

Do you choose a wife and concubine? ”

"Uh...... No. Tang Haoqi paused, and he really had nothing to say about Luo Xizheng's strange approach.

"Then have you ever seen a mother whose son took a wife and took a concubine but ignored him?" Shi Yue really looked at him with disgust and said, "Is it possible?" ”

"No, it's unlikely." Tang Haoqi was puzzled for a moment before answering, and felt that something was not right, "No, didn't you say that it was all handed over to the princess?" ”

"Only you fool can believe this, noβ€”you see." Shi Yue Zhen raised his face and motioned for him to look in the other direction.

Tang Haoqi looked back and saw a woman dressed as a maid but obviously different from ordinary maids walking towards them, holding several unusual pictures in her hands.

There are too many pictures of the show girl, and in order to save money, they are all painted with ordinary colored ink using pine handles and white linen paper prepared by the Internal Affairs Department.

And the material of the picture scroll in the hand of the maid, just Tang Haoqi, a layman, can see that it is extraordinary at a glance.

"This ...... Whose maid is this? Blatantly came to the princess to open the back door, right? Tang Haoqi cautiously approached Shi Yuezhen again and poked her, "I don't think the princess will pay attention to her at all." ”

"Then you're wrong again." Shi Yuezhen didn't push him away this time, "Continue to watch the play." ”

Tang Haoqi stuck out his tongue, grabbed a handful of dim sum in the snack box on the table, and turned his head to watch the play.

The corner of the maid's mouth kept a few smiles on her chest, and she slowly walked in front of Luo Liyao, only slightly blessed herself, and said, "See Her Royal Highness Princess Zhenli." ”

Luo Liyao was watching the little maid in front of her put away the scroll, and suddenly heard her voice, but she didn't turn her head immediately, but first took a cup of tea from Bang Yue and took a sip silently.

"Your Highness!" Seeing that she had not paid any attention to herself, the maid straightened up and called her again.

Luo Liyao waved her hand, and just as she was about to speak, she frowned, suddenly covered her lips and coughed a few times, causing Bang Yue on the side to say urgently: "What are you doing!" If Your Majesty knows that Your Highness is sick again, you will not be able to escape the guilt of death! ”

The maid was taken aback, and hurriedly accepted the careful thoughts in her heart, and when she lowered her head and spoke again, her tone was already a little more respectful: "The slave maid is Yingjin next to the Empress Dowager Zhao, and she was ordered by the Empress Dowager Zhao to hand over these pictures of show girls to Princess Zhenli." ”

"Ahem...... Let it go. Luo Liyao didn't seem to be interested, she didn't even look at her, and she didn't even mean to ask the surname of the person on the scroll, who lived and where she lived.

Hearing this, Bang Yue pursed her lips, but she also stepped forward to take over the picture scroll in Yingjin's hand.

Yingjin glanced at Bang Yue, but did not hand over the scroll in her hand, but only insisted: "The Queen Mother said that she wanted the slave to hand it over to Princess Zhenli in person." ”

"Whew

。 Bang Yue shook her head, silently withdrew her hand and retreated to Luo Liyao's side.

"Who are you?" Luo Liyao was finally willing to turn around and give her a look, but it was not the kind of indifferent look that usually didn't care about anything, and there was a hint of impatience that should not appear on Luo Liyao.

She glanced at the picture scroll in Yingjin's hand, and Ning Wan's face suddenly appeared in her mind, and an inexplicable thought suddenly appeared in her heart-

With her, Ning Wan also wants to enter the palace as a concubine? Wish for the moon.

"The slave is the ...... of the Empress Dowager Zhao's side"

"Are you noble? Let go of your body? Luo Liyao turned her head to stop looking at her, and cast her eyes on the next picture scroll, feeling a little irritable inexplicably, "If you don't give it, hurry up and take it back to Yide Palace, don't stand here and get in the way!" ”

When she said the last sentence, Luo Liyao only felt that the anger in her heart that had been depressed for a long time was becoming more and more unbearable, and her tone and voice unconsciously increased-although the volume was not very loud, it just happened to make people inside and outside the pavilion hear it clearly in this somewhat quiet atmosphere.

Including Shi Yuezhen and Tang Haoqi, who were silently watching the play, and Yu'an, who had just walked outside the pavilion and was about to step into the pavilion.

Princess Zhenli's mood today...... It's really bad, isn't it?

It seems that none of you here have seen such a battle, after all, Princess Zhenli's temperament - but she is notoriously good, and she is kind and gentle and amiable, where is there such a fierce time?

Yingjin, who was scolded by her, turned blue and white for a while, biting her lip and not knowing what to do.

Bang Hua patted Bang Yue, who didn't care and even had a little bit of anger, and took the initiative to step forward and said: "Hey, Bang Yue and I are both the palace maids in charge of His Highness's side - if Sister Yingjin doesn't dislike it, leave it to me." ”

"Yes, yes." Yingjin was a little frightened, and when she saw that Banghua gave her a step, she went down. hesitated a few times, but still had the courage to say, "Your Highness...... Please make sure Your Highness to see it for yourself. ”

"Sister Yingjin rest assured." Bang Hua hurriedly took a few picture scrolls in her hand and gave Bang Yue a look.

Bang Yue understood, although reluctantly, but also stepped forward and politely invited Yingjin out.

Yingjin turned back step by step, as if she still had something to say, but when the words came to her mouth, she saw that Luo Liyao was still very impatient, and hurriedly swallowed back the words that came to her mouth.

"This ...... Well...... If you don't show mercy to the Queen Mother like this, won't you be troubled? Tang Haoqi only felt that Luo Liyao's words just now trembled his heart and liver in shock, and hurriedly asked Shi Yuezhen in a low voice, "I've never seen her lose her temper like this, I always feel that today's princess is particularly irritableβ€”β€”"

"I'm afraid I'm crazy." Shi Yuezhen also whispered back to him, the expression on his face was a little indescribable

"Don't say you haven't seen it, I haven't seen it...... I'm afraid I'm driving me crazy. ”

"Uh......" Tang Haoqi was about to say more, but out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Yu An, who was walking towards them with a careful face, and hurriedly stopped.

"Miss Shi, Master Tang-" Yu An greeted the two of them with a straight salute, "Her Royal Highness the Princess, she ...... today"

"I'm in a bad mood, Mr. Yu'an just saw it." Shi Yuezhen gave him a low look, "Your Majesty has something?" ”

"Hmm...... It's not a problem, it's just that His Majesty thinks that His Highness must be busy with the draft recently, and asks the servant to send His Highness a newly made fur bag. ”

"She's obviously upset, and you give her a new one...... I'm afraid I'll be more irritable. Shi Yuezhen made a terrible expression, "And now she probably doesn't want to hear news from His Majesty." ”

"Alas, this ......" Yu'an was really desperate, and looked at the things that the little attendant was often holding behind him, and he couldn't put it down or take it away, but he could only secretly slander in his heart - Your Majesty, where did you provoke the princess, and I don't know how to coax it well this time.

And Luo Xizheng, who is slandering him, is not in a good mood now.

"Madame Montay means to say...... Want Zhenli to marry Meng Yan as soon as possible? Luo Xizheng tapped lightly on the table, although he deliberately concealed the look on his face, his tone completely revealed his current displeasure.

"Yes. I believe Your Majesty still remembers-" Mrs. Mengtai, that is, the wife of Meng Hui, the former general of Zhenguo, and the mother of Meng Yan and Meng Fu, was standing in the Yiyuan Hall with her head bowed at this time, and said unhurriedly, "When Empress Zhao's mother was still alive, the two of them had already decided to marry in public. The courtiers are middle-aged and widowed, and only such a pair of children can't rest assured, but she is ...... Alas, don't say it. ”

Luo Xizheng frowned, as if he had thought of something, and then smiled inexplicably, and said: "I understand Madame Montay's painstaking efforts to be a parent, but the first emperor and Empress Zhao passed away one after another, and Zhen Li has already told me that she will mourn for the first emperor and Empress Zhao for three years." ”

The implication is that it is impossible to marry Luo Liyao as soon as possible. Unless he ignores the period of national mourning of the first emperor and Empress Zhao, and does not care about Luo Liyao's wishes.

Luo Xizheng looked at the struggling look on Mrs. Montame's face, and secretly sneered in his heart-

Meng Yan wants to marry her? Wish for the moon.
