Chapter 147: Petition for Nomination

Yu Guiren sincerely expressed her loyalty, but the queen always looked at her with a faint expression and did not say a word, Yu Guiren couldn't help but be a little nervous, she stopped talking and looked at the queen uneasily.

In the silence of the room, only the Western pendulum clock in the corner of the wall made a rhythmic ticking sound.

The queen looked at the pendulum clock in a daze, and then looked at Yu Guidao: "Have you ever heard of the vote?" ”

Vote for a name?

Yu nobles were shocked in their hearts.

The queen is a noble woman, how can she know such rude words?

It is her, although the family background is not glorious, but it is also a gentry with a head and a face, the elders of the family invited a famous female master to teach the sisters in the family piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, poetry and songs, if it were not for the great changes in the family, I think she and her sisters will grow into a lady who knows books and etiquette, and will never hear words such as "vote for names" in their lives.

However, after all, her family had suffered a great change, she was young at that time, and she had no memory of the good situation that had been in her home, and could only rely on the words of the old servants and the discussion of the market......

In her imagination, she is a pampered daughter, who was protected by her parents when she was a child, and will marry when she grows up......

But in fact, she carefully lived by someone else's name, grew up in humiliation like a thin horse, and when she grew up, she changed her appearance through hard work and was sent to the harem.

No woman would want to go through a life like this......

She endured all this, and every time she thought of the life she should have, she hated the person who ruined her life: the queen!

She entered the palace for half a year, and she was awarded the title of nobleman and the exclusive favor of the saint, and the internal officials and palace women complimented her, "Niangniang was born very blessed."

Oh, blessed......

In her life, how can she be blessed?

Whenever she heard such compliments, she always laughed and did not say a word, but in her heart she was very disgusted with that kind of statement.

Today, Princess Zhenbei entered the palace, and some people vaguely gave her a hint that Princess Zhenbei's appearance was somewhat similar to her.

Similar in appearance......

Only she knows that Princess Zhenbei is not like her, but Empress Wende......

Her family once received a copy of the portrait of Empress Wende when she was in her prime, and her family was associated with a noble man in the former court, and the copy was originally intended to be dedicated to that nobleman, but it was delayed for some reason.

Later, the nobleman lost his power and the family died, but she was the only one who survived death, changed her name and surname to grow up, and changed her appearance according to that Lin Mutu.

From her time to her entry into the palace last autumn, it was seven years.

In order to become this "blessed" face, she spent seven years, tried medical witchcraft, and endured all the hardships.

Therefore, after she suddenly heard that Princess Zhenbei looked like her, she was curious, and she didn't even care about the whole plan, and when she heard that Princess Zhenbei was injured, she hurriedly ordered a doctor who had always begged her to bring Princess Zhenbei to her to have a look......

The masters and servants in the palace probably felt that she was in a hurry to see Princess Zhenbei because of jealousy.

Oh, jealousy......

Probably.

It's just that it's not the kind of "jealousy" that those people think of......

Her original appearance was far more delicate than that of Empress Wende, so how could she be jealous of someone who was more like Empress Wende than her?

She was jealous that she had paid so much to get this look, and that someone was born with it, and it was better than hers......

Princess Zhenbei, with delicate eyebrows and eyes, noble and gentle bearing.

The person in the painting walked out of the portrait, as if Empress Wende was coming again......

What she was even more jealous of was that Princess Zhenbei didn't have to please the emperor with that face.

As everyone knows in the world, the king of Zhenbei, who has made great military achievements, has a deep love for the princess of Zhenbei, and has no children and does not accept concubines for more than ten years......

Thinking about Empress Wende again, although unfortunately died early, the emperor often remembered and posthumously crowned the throne, giving her supreme mourning.

So, that kind of appearance is probably indeed blessed......

As for her......

This face of hers was obtained by the crooked way of the evil sect, and the blessing naturally has nothing to do with her......

Now, it's another hurdle......

Yu Guiren retracted his thoughts and slowly replied: "The concubine is dull, and her knowledge is far inferior to that of Niangniang, but she can only know a few words...... I don't know, I don't know where this 'vote' comes from......"

Her eyes were full of confusion and incomprehension, as if she really thought that "Casting a Name" was an allusion, and she seriously recalled the source of this allusion for a long time.

The queen looked at Yu Guiren, and explained patiently: "The word "name is not an allusion in the book, but a green forest proverb......"

Greenwood......

Yu Guiren's eyes were appropriately wide and he looked at the queen in horror.

The identity she borrowed was the orphan of a couple of small-town Xiucai couples who died early, and was raised by loyal servants.

If she was really the orphaned lady, she would be shocked and frightened when she heard the "green forest".

The queen was not suspicious of Yu Guiren's reaction, and she continued to explain the meaning of "casting a name".

Yu Guiren listened respectfully on his face, and sneered in his heart.

She is not the orphan lady after all, and she happens to know the meaning of "casting a name".

Among her teachers, there was an Oiran who was famous in the Qinhuai River of Jinling City when she was young, and the former Oiran had a good friend who walked the rivers and lakes, she had seen the man when she was young, and then the man never came to the door again.

She asked the former Oiran, who disapprehended to tell her that the man had ventured to assassinate one of the gang's enemies in order to make a name for himself in a powerful gang, but had failed.

At that time, she knew the meaning of the petition.

As for the loneliness in the eyes of the former Oiran, it was after she inherited the holy favor and had the mind of a daughter that she gradually understood.

It's all the people and things of the past......

What's important is that the queen means "casting a name" to her right now?

The queen looked at Yu Guiren quietly.

Yu Guiren lowered his eyes and thought for a while, then looked at the queen cautiously and asked, "What does Niangniang mean...... Is it a concubine, if you want to be protected by your mother, you have to offer it...... Vote, vote? ”

The queen nodded: "Female Studies." ”

Yu Guiren asked in surprise: "Female student? ”

The queen's tone was firm: "If you can help this palace to promote the establishment of a women's school, this palace will promise to do one thing for you!" ”

The Queen's Promise......

Yu Guiren thought about it, made up his mind, and kowtowed to the queen with excitement: "The concubine will definitely do her best!" ”

The queen's face was as usual: "It's late today, you can step down!" ”

Yu Guiren saluted respectfully and happily, and was about to retreat, but in the end, O couldn't help but persuade the queen: "Niangniang, it seems that the saint has no intention of setting up a women's school......"

The queen looked at Yu Guiren coldly.

Yu Guiren hurriedly defended: "Niangniang, the concubine does not mean to retreat in fear of difficulties, Niangniang's order, the concubine will not hesitate to go to the fire......"

"The concubine is just worried that Niangniang's insistence on setting up a women's society will anger the Holy ......"

"What's more, even if you don't set up a girls' school, Niangniang will definitely be able to find the best master in the world for the eldest princess!"

Yu Guiren said this to show her loyalty to the queen, and she did not expect the queen to respond to her.

The queen said: "Do you think that this palace is for the eldest princess to set up a women's school?" ”
