Chapter 149: Choosing a Chamberlain for the Princess

"Squire?" When the idiot heard this, he was a little puzzled.

At this time, add people, or squire? The prince is about to enter Beijing, and there are a bunch of internal officials and guards around him, who else do you need?

Lu Song looked around, lowered his voice and said: "It's the princess's meaning, before entering Beijing, we must arrange a few attendants with His Royal Highness's size to enter Beijing with His Highness." Speaking of this, he paused and said: "There are not cheap places on the road, and it is convenient for one or two." ”

It turned out to be a stand-in, and it seemed that he was worried that the more than 2,000 miles from Anlu to the capital would be unsafe.

The idiot felt that his head was full of black lines.

The son of the world is from a noble background, and he is extremely arrogant in his bones, would he be willing to use a stand-in? Besides, in front of the Qin Cha who welcomed the Son of Heaven in the capital, he acted like this, and he was a little stingy, but it seemed that he couldn't trust them, didn't he offend people?

And the identity of the son of the world is already different, he is the son of heaven, if the son of heaven is not safe, doesn't it mean that someone is plotting a rebellion? Offend the clan.

No wonder Lu Song mentioned this matter, his face turned bitter, and he didn't agree with acting like this.

"How did Your Highness allow it?" Dao idiot curious.

Lu Song smiled bitterly: "The princess has been crying, Your Highness is filial, what else can you do except agree." ”

Without waiting for the idiot to speak, Lu Bing was anxious and said, "Dad, don't call the second brother here...... We still have Xiao Wei in our family, and there is only one male in the second brother's family......"

When Lu Song heard this, he looked at the Taoist idiot with a little hesitation.

Dao idiot smiled: "The princess is just a mother's heart, just in case, where it will come to that point." ”

Lu Bing still said: "But what if? ”

Dao idiot Zhengse said: "If there is really a case, I believe that His Highness will not let my grandmother be lonely." I am also from the palace, so I don't need to persuade him. With the nature of His Highness, he does not like to be around. On the way north, the attendants must be getting along with His Highness day and night, and they are not as familiar with the people His Highness does not like. Again...... If you really have to meet in case, how can you guarantee that outsiders will block the sword for His Highness? ”

Hearing him say this, Lu Song also felt that his words were reasonable, but he didn't want to persuade him again. In fact, like the Taoist idiot, he felt that there was nothing to worry about on the road. After all, the legacy is there, and the son is already the heir. At present, there are 5,000 men and horses, but there are definitely more people and horses entering Beijing, and when passing by the guard posts along the way, they will definitely be dispatched to follow.

In this way, being a squire this time is only good for the Taoist idiot. After all, the identity of the prince has changed, and it is a good thing to take the opportunity to strengthen the relationship with the prince. Even the princess will also take credit.

Thinking of this, Lu Song nodded and said, "Okay, since Erlang has this heart, he will go with Lu Bing to see His Highness with me." ”

The idiot nodded, and followed Lu Song's father and son to the Qiyun Palace, but he did not see the prince immediately, because the magnates and dignitaries from the capital were in the Qiyun Palace, discussing the departure with the princess and the prince.

Lu Song took the two of them to the side hall to wait, and after a while, Xing Baihu also arrived, bringing four captains, all of whom were of medium height and thin stature.

Dao idiot glanced at them, and then at himself and Lu Bing. Although Lu Bing is two years younger than himself, he is about the same height because he practiced martial arts at a young age.

It's just that he and Lu Bing are repaid, with a young and immature face, pretending to be fifteen years old, which is reasonable; Xing Baihu brought four, and his body shape was there, but his face looked too big.

Lu Song obviously saw it too, and couldn't help frowning.

Xing Baihu didn't know Lu Song's intention to ask him to pick people, but he only knew that he was picking a few lieutenants of medium stature, and Lu Song would take them with him to spread the word in the future. He was not worried about the tiger's head and asked, "Is Dingshan okay?" How old is he, how can he be an errand boy by His Highness's side? ”

Lu Song snorted and said, "Are you going to tell His Highness this?" Could it be that Lao Xing forgot that Dingshan was originally the person chosen by His Royal Highness. ”

Xing Baihu was choked and speechless, and said for a while: "When His Royal Highness ascends the throne, I will go to find a well-behaved daughter, and this son-in-law can still run away." ”

Lu Bing sat with the Taoist idiot and whispered: "Your Royal Highness wants to be the emperor, then I will be the imperial guard in the future, what will the second brother do?" ”

The idiot said: "Take the exam, take the exam, and become the former minister in the future and serve His Royal Highness." ”

When Lu Bing heard this, he smiled and said: "It's so good, it's still like being in the palace, everyone is not separated." ”

The idiot smiled and didn't answer.

How can it be the same as in the palace, Lu Bing is still there, with the status of a milk brother, it may be easier to enter and leave the palace in the future; Like other people in the palace, even if they enter the court, they have all become foreign ministers.

As he spoke, he heard movement outside.

Lu Song got up and looked outside, and saw many people coming out of the main hall.

Huang Jin came over and said, "Lord Lu, Your Highness is invited." ”

Lu Song answered, turned around and beckoned everyone to follow. But when he arrived at the door of the main hall, he only brought Lu Bing and Dao Idiot in, and asked the others to wait.

There were four people in the room, in addition to the chamberlains Gao Kang and Lu Fang, there was also a tiger head standing behind the prince. Although the tiger head is one year younger than the prince, he is already half a head taller than the prince, and he is fed with big fish and meat in Xing Baihu, and his body is strong, like a calf.

It's just that his face is no longer as smirk as before, he is tense tightly, and he looks a little imposing. However, when he saw the Dao idiot who was following Lu Song, his expression still eased.

Shizi was drooping, a little gloomy between his eyebrows and eyes, and when he saw Lu Bing and Dao Idiot, he was stunned, and saw Lu Song's intentions, so he shook his head and said, "No, how can you use the two of them?" ”

Lu Song said: "Your Highness, there are more than 10,000 people going north, if you want to get close to Your Highness, in addition to the local guards who are served, there are also guards in Beijing, as well as palace guards and honor guards. The so-called attendant is just Princess An's heart, where is it so dangerous? ”

When the prince heard this, he hesitated a little, and finally shook his head and said, "Even if there is only a trace of danger, I will not be elected to the two of them." Da Lang here The nurse will be worried, and Erlang is a single ding. ”

When the idiot heard this, he only felt a warmth in his heart. Even if he knew that the prince refused to do this, it was more because of Lu Bing, and he was just incidental. But the son of the world can say a word, and there is some true feelings.

Lu Song said: "It is precisely for the slightest danger that we can't use outsiders as attendants." How can the safety of His Highness be handed over to outsiders. Da Lang and Erlang have some work in their hands, and when His Royal Highness is loyal, His Royal Highness will allow the two of them to accompany him. ”

The prince still shook his head, and Lu Song had no choice but to carry the princess out and said, "Your Highness, with the two of them here, the princess will feel at ease." And after all, they are His Royal Highness's Mansion School Companions, and they are not obtrusive when they are with His Highness, and they look better in front of Qincha. There are four other people outside, selected from the palace guards, does Your Highness take a look first? ”

Only then did the prince nod and said, "Let's pass it on first." ”

After looking at these four people, Shizi couldn't help frowning, and didn't say anything, only shook his head at Lu Song.

Lu Song also felt that these four "attendants" didn't look like them, so he asked Xing Baihu to take people back first.

In fact, those who are about the same size as the prince in the palace are a few internal officials around His Royal Highness, except for the school companions. But no matter how reckless Lu Song is, he will not say the words of letting the internal official be his attendant. In the eyes of the royal family, eunuchs are inferior.

Shizi said: "Lord Lu doesn't want to show up to others, just Da Lang and Erlang, and go to the same concubine later." You can't get a bunch of people and let those Beijing officials laugh alone and timid. ”

Lu Song thought for a while and said, "The minister also thinks that he is in the car all the way, and it is not good to squeeze too many people." ”

Shizi nodded and said, "Exactly, the two of them, plus Dingshan, are enough." ”

Speaking of this, the prince paused and said: "I have just discussed with a few adults, I will go to worship my father on the first day of the next month, and set off for the north on the second day of the new month." The six adults of the Honor Guard Division and the four adults of the Mansion Guard went north with the lonely. They also took the token of the military department in their hands, and tomorrow they sent an order to prepare people and horses to escort Lone to the north. ”

When Lu Song heard this, he only felt sour in his heart.

He thought that he would never have a chance to leave Anlu in his life, but he didn't expect that there would be a day to return to Beijing, and he would still be the old man of the prince's mansion......

Today is March 27th, not a few days before the first day of the next month, Lu Song withdrew from the Qiyun Hall and went to the Honor Guard Division to select people.

The Department of Honor and Sanitation has six adult hands, nearly 1,000 people; The palace guards are four, that is, two thousand people, and the palace has three thousand guards, escorting the prince to the north. Needless to say, many people who go north will be rewarded. Among them, most of the officer ranks will be left in the capital by the prince. It is impossible for the son of the world to stay alone in the capital after going north.

Who goes, who doesn't go, and Lu Song has a headache......

In the Fengxiang Palace, in addition to the princess, there are also Mrs. Wu and Xiao Wu.

The movement in the palace was so big yesterday, how could Jiang Qingshan hide it from his family. The Jiang family has become a royal prince, which is a great joy for the Jiang family.

The Zhang family has produced a queen, one family and two marquis, and has been beautiful for decades. Although the Jiang family did not produce a queen, it produced a queen mother.

Jiang Qingshan was ecstatic.

Mrs. Wu and Xiao Wu are repentant, although the princess dotes on the son and obeys the son's life, but the prince is a kind person. As early as when the prince was alive, he was cheeky and gave Jiang Feng to the prince, who can say anything?

It's too late to say this now, Jiang Feng has already made a marriage, even if she regrets her marriage, with the stubbornness of the princess and the prince, it is impossible to allow her to enter the palace. However, even if you can't enter the palace, as the eldest lady of the royal family, it is not good to marry the local gentry.

Jiang Lin is also there, even if Wu Baihu is his cousin, his status is too low. If the Jiang family pushes grace and becomes a marquis, Jiang Lin is the son of the Hou Mansion, how can he marry a daughter of a hundred households?

At this time, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were fortunate to set the wedding date of the two brothers and sisters this year.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law entered the palace to find the princess to get an idea. came early in the morning, because the princess went to the Qiyun Hall to discuss the date of the trip with the Qincha, and waited in the Fengxiang Hall all morning.

waited for the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to be impetuous, and the words were a little unpolite, and the intention was straightforward.

The princess was worried about her son's going north, and when she saw that her mother's family had some warmth in her heart, after listening to the intention of the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, this warmth also turned into ice ballast.

She said with a cold face: "Even if the Jiang family is not a high-ranking family, it is also a pure white family, even if it is a marriage contract, how can it be easy to regret the marriage?" ”

Seeing that she was annoyed, Xiao Wu didn't dare to squeak, only looked at Mrs. Wu with his eyes.

Mrs. Wu sneered: "This is also for the sake of His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness has arrived in the capital, the queen mother and queen are pressed in the palace, and there are ministers and nobles in the court. ”

The princess frowned and said: "Xuan'er is the heir of the Son of Heaven, and since he entered Beijing, he has ascended to the position of the Son of Heaven, and the whole world is Xuan'er's subjects, where do you need a foreign family to help him?" Besides, the matter of repentance of marriage is also ugly, and it may even involve Xuan'er. If the Jiang family is really thinking about Xuan'er, don't mention the matter of repentance again. ”

Xiao Wu was still unwilling, and said: "Lin'er is okay, kiss and kiss, and marry you." Your brother and I only have one daughter, Feng'er, how can I be willing to leave her here alone. ”

The princess glanced at her and said, "What's so difficult about this, let Feng's son-in-law follow her into Beijing." Lu Dalang was originally Xuan'er's companion, what did he have to go north with Xuan'er? ”

Xiao Wu wanted to say more, but was stopped by Mrs. Wu in a low voice.

Mrs. Wu said: "Don't worry, princess, although your brother and sister-in-law are weak and weak, they can't help Your Highness, and they won't discredit Your Highness." ”

While he was talking, the maid came in and told him that the prince had come and was waiting outside the hall.

The princess hurriedly said, "Hurry up and invite Your Highness in." ”

The prince brought Lu Bing, Dao idiot, and Tiger Head in.

Mrs. Wu and Xiao Wu didn't dare to sit anymore, so they hurriedly stood up.

"Mother." The prince met the princess first, and then his grandmother and aunt.

Because the son of the world is the heir of the Son of Heaven, both of them turned sideways to avoid it and did not dare to accept the courtesy.

Although the prince was disgusted with his grandmother and aunt earlier, he thought that if he entered Beijing, he was afraid that it would be a few months before he could settle down to welcome the princess into Beijing.

Therefore, the prince was very polite to Mrs. Wu.

Although Mrs. Wu is the grandmother of the son, she has long been afraid of this grandson, and now she thinks that the person standing in front of her is the future emperor, and she is even more worried.

Xiao Wu was beside him, with flattery, interjecting from time to time, but what he said was boundless.

The princess really couldn't stand it, so she said: "In the past two days, there is a messenger in the palace, and there are many trivial matters, so I won't leave my mother to eat, and another day this side will be clean, and then invite my mother over." ”

Mrs. Wu was not at ease in front of the prince, and she was not annoyed when she heard the princess's words of "sending off guests", and said, "You are busy, we will come back next time." ”

The princess got up and sent it to the door, and asked the two grandmothers to send it on her behalf, before turning back.

"But there's a person to choose for the squire?" There are only a few days left on the journey, and the princess is most worried about this matter now.

Shizi turned around, pointed to a few behind him, and said, "Mother, just choose the three of them." ”

The princess was stunned when she heard this, her eyes paused on Lu Bing and Dao Idiot, and when she landed on the tiger head, she frowned and said, "Xuan'er, this is not a child's play, Wang Dingshan's body is different from yours." ”

The prince had to say the excuses such as the crampedness of the carriage, and the question of whether outsiders were loyal or not.

The princess is not disobedient to persuasion, seeing that her son has an idea here, even if she is a little dissatisfied in her heart, she is not verbose, and only tells Mama Zhou to pack up the reward.

Each of the three of them had a piece of mutton fat white jade and jade pendant, as well as a treasure-inlaid dagger......
