Chapter 43: Princess Antai
The girl in Tsing Yi put her hands behind her back, her heroic eyebrows furrowed, and she was very displeased, "Didn't you tell you not to follow me?" ”
She is the youngest daughter of the current emperor, and she is also the most favored princess in the palace, the fourth in the preface, the title Antai, and her biological mother is a precious concubine who has been favored in the harem for many years.
The person she admired most in her life was the sister of Emperor Taizu of this dynasty, the eldest princess of Ningguo. Since she was a child, she thought that she could be like the eldest princess of Ningguo, Heng Ge immediately crisscrossed the battlefield, even if she was a daughter, she had to make a career, which made everyone look at her.
But now nothing has been accomplished.
Because a few days ago, the saint and the precious concubine mentioned that they wanted to choose a horse for her, Princess Antai was irritable, so she often changed into civilian clothes and went out of the palace to relax.
Thinking that the precious concubine's birthday was coming, Princess Antai thought about choosing something by herself and giving it to her mother, which can be regarded as a little filial piety. Unexpectedly, she asked people to put everything up, only to find that she didn't bring any silver.
This was frustrating enough, but I ran into a snarky girl who didn't know whose family it was.
You can imagine how Princess Antai is feeling.
Fortunately, I also saw people from the Tang State Mansion again. The two girls looked, one gentle and the other bright, and they both looked good.
"Your Highness, Your Majesty is not at ease, and has specially ordered us to secretly protect Your Highness." One of the guards looked up in the direction of Cai Diexuan, "Those two people who dared to collide with His Highness, do you want to ......?"
The two people he said in his mouth naturally referred to the snarky girl and the young man in brocade. Looking at the dress, it should also be from a big family.
Princess Antai smiled and waved her hand, "They don't know my identity, so there's nothing to bump into." The mouth is bad, but there is also a lesson. ”
She didn't become the most favored princess in front of the saint because she had a biological mother who was a noble concubine. The saint loves this daughter, but also because Antai has an open-minded bearing.
The saint is a good-looking man.
has a daughter's ambition to prevent a man, which makes him look bright, so he naturally cherishes it more.
"Forget it, let's go back to the palace." I thought I could have fun sneaking out, but I didn't expect someone to follow behind. Princess Antai was slightly disappointed, so she simply returned to the palace.
In the palace.
The precious concubine was sitting in front of the window, holding a delicate flower scissors in her hand, building a pot of pomegranates.
"Mother, I'm back."
A familiar voice came from outside. Before the words fell, Princess Antai, dressed in men's clothes, had already strode in.
The precious concubine did not look up, and concentrated on cutting the branches on the pomegranate flower branches, and then put down the scissors.
"Why are you dressed like this?" When I saw my daughter's outfit, I just smiled, "It's weird." Your father is choosing a horse for your sisters, and if this continues, who will dare to marry you? ”
Princess Antai threw the long stick in her hand to a palace person, sat opposite the precious concubine with a loud voice, and didn't need to be cared for, she picked up the tea cup next to the precious concubine and poured it in one go.
Looking at her daughter, who was not more polite than the prince, the precious concubine sighed and shook her head, envious of the mothers of the third princess and the fourth princess. The princesses of other families are gentle and quiet, just her, she has climbed trees and houses since she was a child, and the saints like her, and she is allowed to learn martial arts like the princes. Every time I think about it, the precious concubine feels a headache.
Princess Antai didn't take the colt who didn't know where it was to heart, and said with a big grin: "If no one marries, no one marries." I don't look down on any of these young children in the capital. My colt must be a great hero who stands up to the sky. ”
This is not the first time that Princess Antai has said this. However, as an emperor, where can the major events of his life come from his heart?
Thinking of the sage's tone before, the smile on the corner of the precious concubine's mouth was a little stiff. I didn't want to continue the topic, so I diverted the conversation.
"You came back to the palace, but did you go and see Your Majesty first?"
Princess Antai nodded, "Go." However, my father was talking to King Yijun, so I didn't go in, and let people go back to my father and queen and come to my mother's concubine. ”
mentioned King Yijun, Princess Antai was very puzzled. It is said that Yijun Wang Yan is just her father's cousin. However, since returning to the capital, his father seems to be inseparable from him, and he wants him to accompany him every day, and his pleasant face is better than treating her royal brothers.
"Mother, my father seems to like King Yijun very much." Princess Antai didn't understand, "I have also seen King Yijun, he does have military merits, and he looks good." It's just that every day is a cold and indifferent appearance, I heard the queen mother say that Prince Yu doesn't seem to like him very much, but his father is different. ”
"Yijun Wang......" Hearing the name, the smile on the precious concubine's face disappeared. In the depths of his eyes, there is a well-heaping complication. There is a touch of sadness, but also a little hatred.
However, such a change was only fleeting, and Princess Antai did not notice it.
The precious concubine stroked Princess Antai's long hair, lovingly covered a strand of hair behind her ear, and said softly: "After shopping for a long time, go back and rest." After a while, go inside and say hello to the queen. She mentioned you yesterday. "Fengyi Palace
Although she has been favored for many years, the precious concubine has never been arrogant. On the contrary, she has always been courteous and polite, especially respectful of the queen, she must ask for peace every day, and she never dedicates herself to daily palace affairs.
It can be said that a noble concubine is no different from the queen in her demeanor. In contrast, it is Queen Xue, because she is the successor of the side room Fuzheng, she is afraid that the people in the palace will not be convinced, and she is extremely strict in her daily life, and her reputation is not as good as that of a precious concubine.
Princess Antai rolled her eyes, "Got it." ”
He muttered again, "I really don't want to go." ”
Except for the eldest prince and the second princess Rongtai, Empress Xue did not treat the other princes and princesses well. It's not harsh, but everyday indifference is real. Especially Princess Antai, because she is deeply favored by the saints, Queen Xue rarely has a good face for her.
However, recently, Queen Xue has been unusual, and she has been a lot more kind and kind. If you want to talk about the reason, Princess Antai also knows that among the candidates selected by her father for the three of their sisters, there is Queen Xue's nephew, Xue Rin.
If you want to talk about Xue Rin, he can also be regarded as a talented man in Beijing, and now he is the commander of the forbidden army, young and promising, and the most promising son of the Xue family.
It is said that the horses of this dynasty can hardly interfere in politics. If the princess descends, Xue Rin will only be able to get the false title of a concubine in the future. For a talented and ambitious person like Xue Rin, marrying a princess is not a good choice.
It's just that the current situation can't help him.
