Volume 1 Chapter 334 Show Girl
The show girls were temporarily placed in the post house on the west side of the imperial city, and the queen was upset, and she didn't dare to trouble Emperor Yongtai, so she began to toss a few children, especially Fu Moyu, who saw Tian'er's transmission into the palace and scolded her.
After coming and going, Nie Linyu complained for Fu Moyu, "Why does the queen mother always look at you unpleasantly?" ”
Fu Moyu smiled bitterly, "It's just those reasons, one is that I haven't grown under her knees since I was a child, and the other is that she always thinks that I am stronger than my eldest brother, but what she hurts the most is still my eldest brother, so it annoys me when she sees me." ”
Nie Linyu felt that he couldn't understand the queen's mental journey very much.
Li Xiangru, who hadn't seen him for a long time, came to the door, "Fourth brother and fourth brother, tell you something new, do you know what the queen mother did in this draft?" ”
Fu Moyu was a little curious, "What's wrong?" ”
Li Xiangru is familiar with himself, regards Kui Wang's Mansion as his own home, asks the palace maid to pour tea, and lets him serve snacks, and eats and drinks for a while Fang Dao: "Our queen mother, let my father and emperor for all these years, this year is a tough time, and I actually made the decision to put those top looks and figures on the brand, and I didn't show it to my father, just waiting for the end of the draft to send them home to get married." ”
Fu Moyu and Nie Linyu glanced at each other, and they both felt a little abnormal.
"What did my father say?" Fu Moyu didn't believe that Emperor Yongtai would not know about this.
Li Xiangru said: "What else can the father say, the queen mother said, the father should also pay attention to maintenance when he is old, the young and beautiful people will inevitably rely on pampering and do not know moderation, and then the draft, should choose some virtuous people to serve in the palace, the queen mother also said that the royal family is different from the ministers, there is no need to pay attention to marrying a wife and marrying a concubine, there are many virtuous concubines in ancient times, and our southern royal family should also follow suit, if there can be a few virtuous concubines, it is not in vain that she has been the queen for so many years." ”
Li Xiang is such a person with a bit of imitation talent, and imitates Queen Yu's tone and demeanor vividly.
Fu Moyu's eyes flashed, "You came to my house just to tell me this, why don't you tell your eldest brother?" ”
Li Xiangru touched his chin, "Big brother is serious, I don't have anything to say to him, I don't bother to pay attention to the others, so I can still say a few words to you." ”
Fu Moyu couldn't cry or laugh, "Okay, I thank the second brother for lifting up." ”
Li Xiangru took a few more sips of tea, "I won't tell you more, I have to go to the post house to take a look, there are so many beauties, don't waste it, my father can't get it, I fancy a few, I don't think the queen mother will not give it." ”
After saying that, he hurriedly left.
Fu Moyu and Nie Linyu glanced at each other, and it took a long time for Nie Linyu to say: "This matter is completely wrong, someone must have given the queen mother an idea." ”
After thinking about it, he said: "That Yang Liufang, I thought that the person who pushed me into the water was him, but when I met him a few days ago, I took a closer look, and there was no scar on his face. "90 look
Fu Moyu thought for a moment, "I have this matter in my heart, I don't have a clue now, I may never be able to find out, you can't eat this loss in vain." ”
Let's say that Li Xiangru went to the post house, the second highness of the light fell, and the post house officials were a strong stutter, anyway, those who live in it now are all with signs, and those who leave the signs live in the palace and wait for the second round of selection.
He asked Li Xiangru, "Your Highness, did you announce those show girls and let you choose them carefully?" ”
Li Xiangru touched his chin, "It's not necessary, you don't have to be public, just treat this king as an ordinary person, this king will go shopping by himself, and pick slowly." ”
Historically, the draft has naturally been selected by the local government first, and the good ones are screened out before they are sent to Beijing for selection, and the unsightly ones can't even pass the level of the magistrate, so those who can enter Beijing are all ring-fat and thin, and they have their own characteristics.
Who knew that the queen was uncharacteristically strong this year, picking up the not-so-good-looking signs, brushing down a large number of them, and filling the five major courtyards of the post house.
When he walked to the third weight, a show girl came out of the house with her head down, she didn't see her face yet, she saw her figure first, and Li Xiangru cheered, this show girl walked with a slender waist and walked like a willow, and she almost wanted to see his soul.
What a stunner, my father is not blessed, I am cheap, Li Xiangru sighed in his heart.
Immediately asked the steward, knowing that this beauty was selected by Wuyang City, it was the daughter of a small county Cheng, according to Queen Yu's instructions, they had to go home to Beijing early the day after tomorrow.
"The day after tomorrow-" Li Xiangru touched her chin and thought about it, "She's lucky, I have taken a fancy to her in this king, and I don't have to go home, and my father can't find a noble son-in-law for her, so the prince will take her back to the house, and Ming'er will go to the queen mother to ask her to be crowned, wouldn't it be beautiful to be a side concubine?" ”
The steward was taken aback, it stands to reason that although these show girls have put off the brand, they can't marry arbitrarily in Beijing, and they must go back to their hometowns to get married, but the second prince is not something he can offend, so after thinking about it, he came up with a reason.
"Your Royal Highness, this woman, are a little ignorant of lifting, she is full of ambition to enter Beijing to be elected, who knows that the emperor has not seen the golden face and put the sign, I don't know how aggrieved I am, you will take her into the house, she may not be grateful to you, but it is better to completely let her lose hope, and send her out of Beijing when she directly announced that she will be a side concubine, she is happy, and she will have fun waiting in this room."
The words were ridiculous, but Li Xiangru felt reasonable, and nodded again and again, "What you said makes sense, just do it, well-this king has to go to the palace to ask the queen mother for an order." ”
Queen Yu heard that the second son wanted to accept a failed show girl as a side concubine, but she did not stop her, only said that the position of the side concubine could not be easily given, if she really liked it, she would be accepted into the house first, and then canonized when she was pregnant, which was also a common thing, and Li Xiangru happily agreed.
On the day when the undrafted girl left Beijing, he really waited on the official road outside the city, because he did not ask for the will to canonize the side concubine, Li Xiangru changed his play and decided to come to a hero to save the beauty, which can also make the beauty grateful and take the initiative to make a promise.
When the carriage came, he was so excited that he was bubbling all over, waved his hand, and his secret signal had already been discussed, and then he shot the hidden weapon that had been held in his hand on the horse's feet, and the horse was frightened, and dragged the carriage and began to gallop.
Li Xiangru grasped the opportunity, put on a chic posture, jumped into the carriage with a light jump, and planned to take the beauty in his arms and jump off the carriage together, he rehearsed it many times in his mind, and felt that it was perfect.
Who knew that he had just entered the carriage, and before he could see where the beauty was, he was hit the back of the head, and he fell unconscious.
