Wu Zhao entered the palace, and the young slave was in distress

"Oh? Let's hear it. Taizong still didn't turn his eyes and said.

"Back to the Lord, the female martial artist, the name is famous, the word Ruyi, the age of fourteen, the second daughter of the warrior Tong of the Duke of Yingguo." Wang De said.

Taizong only repeated Wu Zhao's name twice in his mouth before closing his eyes and saying, "Samurai Tong...... As I remember, he's gone. ”

"Exactly...... However, his son Wu Yuanqing accepted the heir, and it stands to reason that he will not be able to be named the official name of the country, and he should also be a title above the fifth grade. It's just that the filial piety period of the country has not yet expired, and according to the law, the heir must wait for the expiration of the filial piety period. ”

Taizong still closed his eyes and said, "Hmph...... Before his filial piety expired, he was in a hurry to send his sister to the palace? You're too anxious, aren't you? I heard that this Wu Zhao was once begged by him for many things, but he didn't get a courtesy. Wang De, have you heard of these things? ”

Although Wang De had heard it, he didn't know how to talk about it, so he looked at De'an.

Seeing this, De'an stepped forward and said: "Lord, the prince and the prince are serving the lord every day, and I am afraid that these foreign affairs are unknown." However, De'an knew some inside information because when he was working for the prince, he had met the family members of those officials who had discussed with this martial artist a few times. ”

"Let's talk about it!"

"Yes, a few days ago, when De'an was ordered by the prince to send the newly matched vermilion powder in the palace to the uncle and duchess of the country, he happened to meet the wife of Lord Liu and the uncle and the duchess of the country for a boudoir party. Listening to Mrs. Liu, the marriage of the Wu family, her brother once mentioned it to Lord Liu's mansion, and wanted to be suitable for the second son of the Liu Mansion. However, Lord Liu and his wife despised their family background for not being expensive, and they also despised their biological mother Yang's frivolity, so they actually refused. ”

"Young? But that jade peony, and the Yang family who took the words of the former emperor Yang to publicize it all day long? ”

"This is the woman. But speaking of which, the little lady of the Wu clan is also a poor person. ”

"How?"

"De'an once heard that this little lady of the Wu family had entered the palace with her mother in her early years, and she had ...... praised one after another, saying that although she is only a three-year-old child, she is extremely talented and beautiful, and she loves literature and history, and she will be a good child who will inevitably be your wife in the future. ”

Taizong suddenly opened his eyes and looked at De'an with interest: "This Wu Zhao, have you ever seen the queen?" ”

Seeing this, Wang De hurriedly stepped forward with a smile and said, "Alas, the slave is really old, and he doesn't even remember this girl." Sure enough, it's still a good memory of the Lord. Hasn't this Wu girl really been rewarded by the queen? The queen still loved her very much, hugged her in her arms, and was reluctant to let go! ”

Taizong turned his head and glanced at him: "You also know?" ”

"The slave doesn't know," Wang De said with a smile: "But this matter, Hua Shanggong once mentioned it in the early years, and also mentioned that the queen mother said that this Wu girl is really a good child, but it is a pity that there is a light and virtuous mother, and it is such a family, although there is an upright father like Ying Guogong to teach, the temperament is the best." But it is inevitable that the mother who has not seen it will be regarded as a strange commodity in the future!

So he felt pity and showed a little grace, and coaxed the Yang family to invite Mr. to come, so that he could raise this daughter. Later, the Yang family couldn't hold back his temperament, and came to the palace three or twice, delusionally thinking that he would send this little lady of the Wu family to Emperor Gaozu as a maid! was immediately taught a good lesson by the queen mother and the concubine Yan. That's when I broke off. ”

Taizong was silent, and asked De'an again: "You only said half of what you said, continue to speak." ”

"Yes, when the slave was walking outside, he did hear that this woman was famous all over the three states, and they all said that she was difficult to find in the world, and she was extremely filial to her father, and she was also quite virtuous. It's just pitiful that he was dragged down by his family background and his mother's sister's notoriety.

Originally, Ying Guogong also wanted to adapt her to a good family. But because of the matter of the portal, and the name of his mother's thinness, his sister's reputation for jealousy is well known in the court......

Therefore, although the sons of many families admire her name and pour out their talents, they are only willing to marry her as a concubine due to the limitations of the elders in the family. Ying Guogong was unwilling. Therefore, this Ying Guogong had to tell his daughter in front of the Yang family before he died, and he could enter the palace to serve the lord. He also said that the Lord is virtuous, and the daughter of a meritorious man is not unprotected when she enters the palace.

However, after Ying Guogong went, the Yang family openly told people that although her husband Ying Guogong had the title of Guogong, he was just a trader after all, and her daughter did not have a good family background when she entered the palace, and at most she was just a girl. If it is suitable to be a concubine with your family, it can be regarded as a glorious life. Therefore, he refused to let his daughter enter the palace, and found the Cui family in Taiyuan, wanting to make a good daughter suitable for the Cui family who was an official servant as a concubine. ”

Taizong sneered: "I have heard of the name of this Yang woman, but I didn't expect her to be so snobbish."

That Cui Daochang is over eighty years old, and it is more than enough to be the great-ancestor of the Wu clan in terms of age......

Hum! Ying Guogong was the founder of the country, and the emperor also respected him very much, and he wanted to be cared for more......

These sons of the family are just a group of bastards who rely on the merits of their ancestors! What qualifications do you have to be a concubine after the hero?!

When this matter spreads, wouldn't it teach those heroes who were born poor and contributed to my Tang Dynasty to chill their hearts? ! Even the children are in an uneasy situation, those talented people from poor backgrounds, who is willing to be loyal to my Datang?!

What's more, even the queen praised this girl for being a good girl...... Wang De! ”

"Slave here!"

"Immediately pass on my will, Wu's daughter, father Ying Guogong, founding father, noble status, talent, virtue and virtue, and have been promoted in the dynasty for a long time. And the old queen's kindness, good manners, hired into the palace with courtesy, and sealed the five talents! Three days later, together with other selected talents, enter the Taiji Palace! ”

"Will!"

Two hours later.

Mei Niang was sleeping, and was suddenly woken up, but when she looked, it was her mother.

Yang shook his daughter excitedly, pointed out inarticulately, and only said, "It's coming...... Here it comes! ”

"What's coming? Mother? ”

Seeing that Yang was so panicked, Mei Niang was also shocked, hurriedly got up, put on a thin coat, and scattered her hair to see.

But I saw a post officer standing at the door with the same excited face.

The post officer was also stunned when he saw Mei Niang's appearance, and then smiled: "It's really bright and beautiful, no wonder I also smell the reputation of the little lady today!" Little lady, please quickly change your clothes and go to the lobby! The canonization envoy from the palace is waiting! ”

Mei Niang's heart sank, and she subconsciously looked at the moon outside the window.

Seeing her like this, the post officer couldn't help urging again.

He sighed secretly in his heart and said, "Thank you, my lord, the little girl will change her clothes." Please also ask the adults to entertain the canonization envoy on behalf of the little girl. ”

The post officer left with a smile, and before leaving, Yang hurriedly found a few more tongbao and stuffed them into the post officer's hands.

Although Mei Niang frowned, she didn't say anything after all. It's just a quick change of clothes.

Seeing this, Yang came forward to make up with his daughter, but was stopped by Mei Niang - for no other reason, Mei Niang didn't love fat pink since she was a child, so she always quarreled with her mother because of makeup.

Tonight, maybe it will be the last time of her Wu Meiniang's free life, so why not be willful once?

After a while, Mei Niang, who was dressed in a milk-colored square-collared robe, wrapped in a goose yellow silk skirt, and pulled a virgin's bun, slowly came to the front hall and saw the canonization envoy.

The canonization envoy was woken up late at night by the red man Wang Degong, who was next to the current saint, and ordered the holy decree to be summoned, and he already knew that this woman was extraordinary. Looking at it now, I sighed even more: it really lives up to its name, and it is as beautiful as a woman. Between the demeanor, there is a sense of peace and nobility, and it will inevitably be even more favored in the future, so he smiled:

"Our family said that it has been more than ten years since I entered the palace, and it is the first time I have seen the Holy Lord send the prince to announce the decree in the middle of the night. Sure enough, such a good woman, I'm afraid that there are only four ladies in this palace, and she is a few chips better than the little lady! ”

Yang was proud when he heard this, and was just about to step forward to say a few words to show off, but he was blocked by Mei Niang's dodge, and said, "There is Father-in-law Lao, please also ask for the holy decree." ”

The canonization envoy nodded with a smile, unfolded his will, and announced it.

……

Until the envoy had been gone for a long time, Yang was still standing in front of the window, watching the carriage go away with joy.

He closed the window again, turned his head to look at his daughter sitting on the edge of the bed, and said, "How is it?" Mother is right, right? If I hadn't introduced you to those adults, how would the Holy Lord know that your little girl of the Wu clan was so ......?"

"Mother, at this point, why don't you understand? In the will, it is clearly written that the daughter of the Wu family, her father should be the prince of the country, the founding minister, and the status is noble......

Still don't get it? If it weren't for the hero's body of my father, this will not have reached this post station at all! ”

Mei Niang was tired, and she didn't want to say anything more to her mother, so she just shook her head and got up to leave.
