Chapter 420: Preserved Fruit
The emperor laughed twice, got up and said to Leng Yi: "It's my mistake, today I am fortunate that my uncle asked me to come over and take a look, otherwise I would really miss a good show." ”
Leng Yi: "The emperor didn't just come to see the play. After speaking, I couldn't help but look at the hundreds of young women outside the veil, I don't know who will be selected into the middle palace by the flower stamen and the emperor.
The emperor didn't care, sat down again, and saw that Hua Rui was looking at him, so he said with a smile: "Grandmother said that as long as I like it, my grandmother will like it too, right?" ”
Hua Rui put his hand on the emperor's hand, patted it gently, and said, "The king of a country should not be happy and angry, where do you look like a king?" ”
Sun Qi smiled and complimented: "That's our emperor's blessing, there is such a queen mother who loves herself." ”
Lord Wang Chengyan on the side, that is, the concubine of the eldest princess of Wei, Wang Zhixuan and Wang Zhimo's father, heard Sun Qi say this, but he didn't dare to say anything, just smiled.
"That's right, what Grandpa Sun said is very true." The emperor said with a smile, and everyone laughed too.
"Grandpa Sun, Lord Fang and Mrs. Fang have brought it." A little eunuch was outside.
The emperor poked his head and said, "If the teacher is really here, it is the first time I have seen his wife, how can I not look like this Fang Jinyan?" ”
Leng Yi said: "Fang Jinyan's mother is Lord Fang's third lady, and this Fang Shuli is Mrs. Fang's daughter. ”
The emperor glanced at Leng Yi, thoughtful but did not speak.
"Why don't you let the teacher come in and talk, it's starting to get hot." The emperor said.
"The mourning family felt that it was more appropriate to stand by their daughter's side."
The emperor looked at the flower's expression and did not speak again.
Fang Ziqing. When I sent someone to call you, I told you why? Blossom asked.
"The minister greets the Empress Dowager, the minister ...... Got it! ”
Hua Rui looked at Fang Ziqing under the stands and Dong Yuexi beside him, and said, "Is your wife next to you?" ”
Dong Yuexi is quite calm. Hearing the voice behind the veil, he quickly knelt down to give a salute, and said in his mouth: "The concubine has seen the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager Chitose Chitose Chitose Chitose!" ”
"Hah...... Don't say anything about Chitose or not, I want to know that the two characters on my desk have something to do with you? ”
Dong Yuexi looked at Fang Jinyan, her eyes were cold. "Back to the Empress Dowager's words, the concubines and husbands don't know about it."
The emperor whispered on the side: "I won't admit it." ”
Leng Yi said: "What does the emperor think?" ”
Hua Rui also looked at the emperor. said: "Yes, what does the emperor think should be?" ”
The emperor played again, and whispered a few words in Hua Rui's ear. Hua Rui pretended to be angry, but with a smile on her face: "Naughty again, don't!" ”
Leng Yi said: "I don't know what good idea the emperor has?" The minister would like to hear about it, the Empress Dowager. I think what Lord Fang taught the emperor is just the way of being a king. Sooner or later, one day this country still has to be taken care of by the emperor alone, so it is better to let the emperor decide this matter today. ”
Hua Ruijiao glanced at Leng Yi with disgust, although there were only the three of them and Lord Wang Chengyan behind the veil, the eldest princess of Wei did not accompany her today, mainly because Wang Zhimo was sick again one night, and no one knew about it except them, so naturally she would not tell anyone about it.
"You just go with his will, do you know what he has in mind?"
Leng Yi smiled slightly. Said: "The emperor has always been wise and wise, how can the minister know the holy will?" ”
The emperor saw that Leng Yi was in a good mood today. I dared to speak, so I said with a smile: "Uncle, what I mean is that since I have read all the eight characters, today I happened to choose a relative for the second young master of the Wang family, why don't I let the accompanying Qin Tianjian people take a look, is there a suitable one among them?" If so, wouldn't that be exactly what they did? ”
Leng Yi saw that the emperor was the same as he thought, but his face did not reveal anything, but said indifferently: "What if it is not compatible?" ”
The emperor smiled indifferently and said, "Then forget it." Then look for it from other women of the right age. ”
Leng Yi smiled and said: "I think that Fang Shuyu and Fang Shuli can also be regarded as beauties, especially that Fang Shuli is the daughter of your teacher, the emperor thinks ......"
The emperor heard Leng Yi's words, and quickly stopped, and said: "That's it, that's it, my uncle still spared me, I don't like this deep boudoir compound to let the rules and etiquette constrain the woman who has no personality of her own, and she is also my teacher's woman, oh my God, accompany me in the palace for five hours a day, don't you want to be my countryman in the future?" ”
At this time, the housekeeper of the Wang family told Wang Chengyan to get up and say goodbye and go out first.
Hua Rui looked at the emperor with a painful look but laughed, and waited for Wang Chengyan to leave, then whispered: "Don't say that the emperor looks down on that Fang Shuli and looks down on the mourning family, don't talk about it, just now, where is it like a master of the middle palace who can be the mother of the world." ”
"What my grandmother said is that in the end she is still the eldest sister, and the key time is not to protect her sister, but to identify her sister, I don't want such a woman." The emperor looked disdainful.
Leng Yi looked at the sun outside that was getting more and more scorching, and there were ice cubes in water tanks placed around them in the veil, he looked at Fang Jinyan outside, she seemed to be a little unable to hold on, her body was originally unable to stand under the sun, if she didn't insist, she should have gone out of the city and sat in the carriage at this time, and she would not suffer from this.
"Okay, now that the emperor has an idea, the minister will let the people from Qin Tianjian come and take a look." After speaking, he hurriedly asked someone to pass on the officials of Qin Tianjian who had been accompanying him.
"Grandmother, I see that the sun is starting to get hot, why don't we go to the backyard and go to the hall, and get this matter out of the way first, and then we'll talk about other things."
Leng Yi said: "The minister thinks that the emperor is still thoughtful, don't choose a parent, first faint a few, but it's not good, look at the daughter who should be Dali Siqing sitting in front of me, it seems that it will not work." ”
Hua Rui waved his hand, Sun Qi understood, walked out, and asked the mothers in charge to take the young ladies they brought to the hall in the backyard to rest, that place was originally the place where the Wang family sacrificed every day, and the venue was very large, so it could accommodate the people present.
The people present waited for the Empress Dowager to leave with her own people, and then dared to get up, no one knew that in addition to the Empress Dowager and Lord Leng, even the emperor was here today, after all, they were all women who had lived in the boudoir for a long time, where did they have any chance to meet the emperor?
Sun Qi walked to the Fang family, first gave Fang Ziqing and Dong Yuexi a gift, and then said: "Spread the Empress Dowager's decree, please move a few of you to the backyard as well, in order to prevent collusion, so I also ask the mother who is in charge of the affairs to tell a few people to take them away." After speaking, he glanced at Fang Jinyan, and then walked away.
Dong Yuexi took advantage of the crowd, walked to Fang Jinyan's side, and said in a low voice: "Jinyan, this is your idea?" ”
Fang Jinyan smiled slightly and said, "What did my mother say, Yan'er didn't know." ”
Fang Ziqing stepped forward and glared at Fang Jinyan, and then said softly to Dong Yuexi: "Don't worry, it's just two eight characters, it's no big deal." ”
Dong Yue was overjoyed, pointing at Fang Jinyan and saying something, the housekeeper's mother on the side walked to the side and bowed down and said, "Miss Fang, please go with the slave." ”
Fang Jinyan looked at Dong Yuexi's face, and still followed the housekeeper's mother with a smile.
As soon as Fang Jinyan walked to the backyard, before she had time to go in, she saw a man standing in front of her, because she was worried about colluding confessions, so the housekeeper's mother took her to another trail, there was no one on the road, and a man suddenly appeared, which made Fang Jinyan startled.
"Fang Jinyan, it turns out that your name is Fang Jinyan, this name is so good, why is it different from the names of your two sisters?"
Fang Jinyan looked at this person who was dressed well, with a face like a crown of jade, teeth like braided shells, sixteen or seventeen years old, Fang Jinyan thought to himself that this person really wanted to have seen himself, and appeared in the Wang family, could it be the second young master of the Wang family, because Wang Zhixuan of the Wang family had seen it himself, and his age was about the same.
"Jin Yan has seen the second young master."
The other party laughed and said, "How do you know that I am Wang Zhimo?" You forgot, we've seen it! ”
The man took a step closer, Fang Jinyan looked at the housekeeper's mother, as if she didn't mean to dissuade her from leaving, and suddenly understood in her heart that this person should have asked the housekeeper's mother to deliberately bring herself here, suddenly, Fang Jinyan smelled a smell of déjà vu, she didn't retreat, but looked at the man.
"Please also ask the second young master to respect himself." After that, he was leaving.
Behind the man, a man who looked like a subordinate came up, came up with a tray, and said respectfully: "This is sent by the slave girl from the Ziyuan girl, saying that it is time for you to take medicine at this time." ”
Fang Jinyan looked at the subordinate vigilantly, and then at the man, who smiled and said, "What? Afraid I'll poison your medicine? ”
Fang Jinyan thought for a while, picked up the bowl and drank it all, then put the medicine bowl on the tray, and said to the man: "Thank you, it's hard to find it all the way for you." ”
The man said, "The slave doesn't dare." After saying that, he lowered his head and retreated.
The man took out a very delicate small brocade box from his arms, with a protruding button on it, and opened it with a light press to open it with all kinds of preserved fruits and nuts, he handed the brocade box to Fang Jinyan, and said: "Dare to drink the medicine, naturally there is no reason not to dare to eat these delicious preserved fruits, right?" ”
Fang Jinyan didn't care, he found a bright red pearl-sized preserved fruit from it and put it in his mouth, it was really sweet, and immediately swept away the unpleasant bitter taste in his mouth before, leaving only sweetness.
"Okay, the Empress Dowager is still waiting, Jin Yan has thanked the second young master here, not only did Jin Yan not delay the time to take the medicine, but also gave Jin Yan delicious preserved fruits." After saying that, he bowed and bowed, and then took his leave. (To be continued......)
