Soon after, it was the sixteenth birthday of the fifth sister, and it was also her gift. As the first concubine of the princess, the day of the Gongfu was unprecedentedly grand.

Early in the morning, the people in the house began to be busy, and the maids sent in all kinds of beads and rouge, which were to wash their faces and apply powder. The fifth sister is naturally beautiful, her skin is like cream, and the powder is slightly applied, and the elegance is fully revealed. Equipped with a gorgeous costume embroidered with beads, the rings are ringing in unison, like a god who stepped on the clouds at the end of the nine heavens.

For her long hair is the most prestigious grandmother in the palace, with the grandmother when she got married to wear the red gold Ruyi hairpin, the hairpin body is slender and long, with excellent craftsmanship inlaid with bright red rubies like blood, layer upon layer of down in turn, a look at the precious. After a few words of teaching, the fifth sister kowtowed respectfully to the elders before the ceremony was completed.

Although there are constantly people in the wealthy family who throw olive branches to the Chen family, the Chen family is unmoved, and the Yujing who was previously fancy is obviously not able to, and I don't know what the Chen family is counting on the chassis.

Later, the third sister's child was born, and the newborn child's face was wrinkled, not like the third sister, nor like Gu Xi.

But Gu Xi was very happy, hugged the child in the swaddling clothes, and looked at the third sister affectionately, and was teased by the second sister on the side before reining in slightly.

The third sister suddenly remembered something, and said to the second sister: "When it comes to the fifth sister and Xu, I also think about the little sister, although Yu Jing has this thought about the little sister, but not necessarily the people of the Yu family will accept the little sister, for so long, the Yu family has no attitude, I always feel that something is wrong." ”

"You're not alone, I also have this idea, the most important thing in this world is the mind, it is inevitable that Yujing will be forced to choose someone else, he naturally has a good choice for him, but the little sister can only rely on him." The second sister sighed.

"Don't pull it down, their Yu clan is a wealthy family, and our Rong clan is a small family? Joke, how can the little sister also have a county position, if it weren't for an illness, how could she be cheap Yujing's kid, just steal the fun, and pick and choose. ”

"Besides, I heard that there will be a general election in the palace after the New Year."

The third sister was a little curious and said, "What to choose, concubine?" ”

The second sister shook her head and said softly: "Queen! ”

My heart is down as I sit on the side, Queen? is so dignified, how could he choose a queen? I saw her when I was a child, graceful and luxurious, with a heavenly majesty, isn't it......

"It was the little sister who was set back then, and now it seems that it is the young lady of the Wang family."

I became more and more distracted and asked, "Why did you choose the queen?" Is it because the current queen doesn't want to be the queen? ”

The two sisters were amused by my words, "Where would anyone not want to be a queen?" ”

"Then why ......?" I couldn't figure out why.

"When the emperor collapsed five years ago, the current emperor is just a teenager, and he doesn't even have a few concubines, where did the queen come from!"

I just remembered that at that year's national funeral, it was the emperor who had named me the lord of Changle and personally lit cinnabar.

I don't know why, but the thought of his broad palm and gentle face that seemed to be smiling at me made my heart ache.

During the Chinese New Year, it is rare that the home is very clean, and everyone's eyes and expectations are on the fifth sister. The emperor wants to choose one of the women of the right age to be the queen, and the one who is in the mansion of the country is naturally the fifth sister with just the right scenery.

The fourth brother helped his father deal with affairs in the army, and it was rare for him to remember me in his busy schedule, so he sent a lot of things intermittently.

Pei'er said that today's emperor ascended the throne at a young age, and he also single-handedly quelled the rebellion in the Quartet, and he is a young man who is both civil and military.

The first emperor was a warm person, and his son must have inherited his warmth, he would be a good emperor who was generous and benevolent, and he was also such a gentle husband who could laugh.

In order to make the fifth sister a blockbuster on the day of the draft, Chen took a lot of effort to invite the most famous gentlemen in the capital to his home. Piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, poetry and book etiquette, the fifth sister has done a good job, and at this moment she is crazy and perfect. It seems that if you don't have a good background, you can be a queen casually, and this glory is not easier than the feats of fighting on the battlefield.

After the first trial of the general election, among the five people who stood out, there were naturally five sisters, but what I didn't expect was that there was Zhao Fei.

Also, although Zhao Fei's mind is a little heavier, she is also an outstanding beauty, and she has such a good literary style, even if she is not a queen, she will be a favored concubine.

Chen was very happy, and took the fifth sister to the Buddhist temple to add a lot of wishing incense, but he didn't expect to meet the Wang family who also went to worship the Buddha.

The Wang family was elected at that time to replace me in the palace to accompany the young lady, before everyone thought that the queen's position belonged to the Wang family, but I didn't expect the emperor did not directly crown her as the queen, but carried out the election with great fanfare, and some people inevitably discussed, saying that the emperor did not like Miss Wang.

One is Zhong Lingyuxiu's princess, and the other is the daughter of the palace who is in the limelight, and the queen's position must be produced between the two.

After the palace election, the will did not come out immediately, and the Chen family was a little nervous during the waiting time in the past two days, and there was an indescribable feeling in the entire mansion. I felt a little dull, but it was an extraordinary time, and I didn't want to touch her brow, so I honestly hid in my yard and didn't come out much.

My father came back at dinner in the evening, so I reluctantly moved from the small table in my room to the front room. The father hurriedly replied and went to deal with the affairs, and the grandmother took the hand of the fifth sister and asked. Asked about her impression of the emperor, the fifth sister blushed and said softly: "The emperor, he is very good-looking." ”

The grandmother touched the hair of the fifth sister lovingly, and said, "The man who can make Lan'er think of him must be extraordinary, so grandmother will be relieved." ”

Chen Yinyin was very happy, but he still pretended to be humble and said, "Old lady, the results of the palace election have not yet come out." ”

Grandmother smiled: "In terms of appearance and family background, our Lan'er is a first-class standout, and we will definitely be selected." ”

Although there is a grandmother's preference, this sentence is not too exaggerated, the fifth sister is indeed the most prominent of many wealthy ladies, the only suspense is the Miss Wang who grew up in the palace, I don't know what kind of temperament she was born in.

The emperor's election is one of the few lively events in recent years, and even gambling houses have placed bets, guessing whether the queen is the fifth sister or the Wang family who grew up in the palace.

Yu Jing, who has never been interested in these things, also asked me a few questions, but unfortunately although I am from the public government, I don't know anything about the details.

After I was with Yujing, it was the first time I met my father, and Yujing and I were walking down the street with our hands in hand, and my father was coming to me, followed by several lieutenants.

I was a little embarrassed, so I hurriedly pulled my hand out and said, "Father." ”

Yu Jing was not as cramped as me, and walked over generously, "Uncle Rong." ”

My father nodded to us, he didn't speak, and we didn't dare to leave, so we were relatively silent opposites.

After a long time, my father's eyes moved away from me and fell on Yujing beside me: "I met your father yesterday, and I heard that you will return to your hometown in a few days. ”

I have never heard Yu Jing mention this matter, looking at him sideways, he looked at his father with burning eyes, and said, "Yes, there are some things to deal with in my hometown, but I will come back in two or three days." ”

"Hmm." The father retracted his gaze, "It's not very peaceful in the capital recently, so it's best for you to bring someone when you move around." ”

"I was negligent in thinking that I would only wander around the bustling parts of the city."

"You guys play with you." The father said, "What's the matter with Yujing today?" ”

"My nephew is an idler, but at my uncle's orders." Where is Yujing idle, but seeing that her father asked so, no matter how busy she is, she has to respond.

"You can send Xuan'er back to my study after you come back."

"Yes."

There was no expression on my father's face, he had always admired Yujing very much, but today's expression was different from the past, and for a while I couldn't remember what was the difference.

My father let go of these words and left, and Yujing and I were at a loss, and we didn't have the heart to play, so we walked and went home.

When we went back, my father and the lieutenants were still in the study discussing things, and Yujing and I wanted to wait outside. Who knew that the little guy on the side saw it, and he went in to report without saying hello.

Not long after, those lieutenants came out with their helmets in their arms, and the style of the soldiers who had fought on the battlefield had always been rigorous, and the movements of a row of people saluted me in unison, which startled me.

"Come in." My father shouted inside, and Yujing didn't hesitate, smiled at me and went in.

I was a little uneasy, and secretly looked in through the erected window, only to see Yujing standing in front of his father's bookcase, although his father was drooping, he could still see a tired face, he looked up, and the sunlight that seeped in from the door frame fell on his face, and he was no longer gloomy.

"Sit down." Father gestured to the chair beside him.

"A few days ago, you took Xuan'er to attend the birthday banquet of Old Lady Yu, and there was a storm in the city, I am an unqualified father, and I am troubled by many affairs, so I can't find time to ask a question or two."

"It's my nephew who is too reckless and has affected Ah Xuan." Jade has always blamed herself for this, even though I told him myself that I didn't care.

"I didn't call you to apologize." A hint of sharpness flashed in his father's eyes, and when he stared at Yujing, his eyes flashed, "Among my children, the most painful is Xuan'er, even if she is criticized by the world, I hope she can always be so happy." ”

The person sitting in front of him is no longer Chengguogong, but a father who is worried about his daughter, earnestly teaching the man in front of him who is about to entrust his daughter with a happy life.

"If Xuan'er hadn't encountered that change, probably I would be very happy to see you together, but Yujing, you must know that your Yu clan is not an ordinary clan, it is beyond my control." Father paused, "Of course, it's not that I don't believe you, but the world is changeable, and your Yu clan is too powerful for me to control." ”

"Uncle's concerns are not unreasonable." Yu Jing's expression was a little evasive: "Don't hide it from you, I haven't been able to get the approval of the elders in my family so far." ”

"If it were me, I wouldn't have agreed." The father sighed, "That's what worries me the most. ”

Yujing's hand tightened again, and I could feel the burden on him, coming from me, my cowardice, my inaction.

"My nephew can't promise you anything else, the only thing I can promise you is that Yu Jing will not marry Rong Xuan in this life, and she will be a couple for the rest of her life, and there will be no others." Yujing's words were earnest, and when she said these words, it was as if she was swearing.

"You can do it, but the least important thing in this world is sincerity."

"I only have so little persistence and stubbornness, I hope my uncle can believe me."

"That's it." Father thought for a while, "Before the matter is settled, don't deal with Xuan'er for the time being, this is also what your father conveyed to me yesterday, I think it is better for me to open this mouth than for you to have a dispute with the head of the Yu family." ”

Yujing, like me, was shocked, anyone can hear the deep meaning of this sentence, but let's not come and go!
