Chapter Twenty-Eight: Choosing a Concubine in the Palace
"Knowing that my sister didn't eat or drink for a day and a night, my sister was very distressed, and I wanted to prepare roast chicken for my sister, but my sister was punished for kneeling in the ancestral hall, which inevitably disturbed the ancestors. Bai Yan got up and took the food box he brought, and walked to Bai Chutao's side.
Bai Chutao's eyes were red, and he looked at the clear green vegetable soup in the food box, and became more and more angry.
Bai Yan turned around and walked towards the door, and at the moment when he raised his feet, he heard the sound of breaking wind behind him, so he pretended to fall to his left hand and was caught by the painting screen.
And the object that was smashed out by Bai Chutao was the food box, and it rushed to Bai Qiancheng later with the soup that was sprinkled all over it.
Liu Shi was dumbfounded, looking at Bai Qiancheng, who was smashed by the food box, and then at Bai Chutao, the only existence in the room, and his legs collapsed to the ground.
How, how could this be?
It was easy for him to show his innocence to Bai Qiancheng with all his net worth, and he gave away the general power of the family to Aunt Hu, which made him calm his anger.
specially didn't let people send food to Hui'er and starved her, so when she came to the door with the master, she was pale and weak, maybe the old man was soft-hearted.
And that night, even if the thief took Hui'er's hairpin, he only defended that Chu'er went out and accidentally fell and was picked up by the thief, and he went to Baifu at night with the idea of soaring, otherwise why not go to Chu'er's yard but go straight to the girl's residence.
The old man who has just changed all the time has set foot in the ancestral hall, why did this happen.
said that the good and powerless Chu'er actually dropped the food box on the master's body?
Bai Yan stabilized his body and said in surprise: "Father, are you okay?" He turned his head to look at the ancestral hall again, "Third sister, even if you don't like the food brought by your sister, you won't just fall out of the door and spill your father." ”
Bai Chutao's body stiffened, and he slowly turned his head, seeing Bai Qiancheng who was full of embarrassment, and his eyes were on fire, and he suddenly didn't know what to do.
"Get out of here!" Bai Qiancheng scolded the Liu family who wanted to come forward to wipe it, and then pointed at Bai Chutao with a sneer, "Don't change your dead nature, kneel for a month, and then go back to your yard to reflect on it." ”
"Since you don't know how to cherish food, I think you don't like such mundane things, then let you have green vegetables and white porridge every day."
Bai Yan bowed back and saluted: "The child sends off his father." ”
"During this time, my sister has cultivated her mind." Bai Yanhui hit Bai Chutao again, and then left the ancestral hall.
"The weather was so nice." The white goose looked back at the red and willow green flowers in the garden, and was in a better mood.
This night, Bai Yanhui had a long dream, Si Chenye knelt at his feet and begged for his favor, hahaha he found the field when he was in Chang'an, it's not too beautiful!
"Miss, no, Miss!" The painting screen broke into the door, his face was in a hurry, "There is a decree in the palace, Your Majesty personally chooses a concubine for the regent." ”
Bai Yanhui opened his confused eyes, "And then?" ”
"Miss is on the list!"
"Huh?" Bai Yanhui wore underwear and walked barefoot in the room, "Really! ”
"Steward Zhao beside the master personally ordered, there will be no fake!" The picture screen was so anxious that he turned in circles, "Miss, how is this good?" ”
Although Bai Yanhui's eyes were also black, he still had a clue in the chaos.
All in all, the emperor personally chose a concubine for Si Chenye, depending on the situation, it will not be just a concubine, but it will be more than two uncapped.
However, the most important thing about Si Chenye is that he is a high-powered king with a different surname.
Although the emperor is old, he is the lord of a country after all, and such a Si Chenye emperor is jealous.
So this time, the concubine selection with great fanfare on the surface may not be able to point out some crooked ways secretly.
The white geese were leisurely basking in the sun in the yard, and the mouths of the painters were bubbling, and the comparison between the two was indeed different.
"Miss, my good miss, why are you still so stable." The painting screen has also seen a little bit of the world, and knows what a terrifying place the palace is, every palace banquet is like walking on thin ice, not to mention that the master is just a city protector general.
"What else can you do if you're unstable? Who made me a treasure? "Bai Yanhui spread his hands back, pretending to be helpless." But don't get too angry, be good, sit down and drink a cup of herbal tea, there must be more anger than you at this time. ”
Who is it? The picture screen endured it and still didn't ask.
In the ancestral hall at this time.
Counting, Bai Chutao is already thinner than Huanghua, and the Liu family has been carefully pampered for so many years, and suddenly his appearance has changed, although he is distressed, he still has to listen to the words of the head of the family.
Especially!
Especially the news spread in the palace today, the palace personally came to pass the decree, and the second lady of the Baifu showed off her wisdom, and she was also on the list of regents to choose concubines, and she was ready to enter the palace half a month later.
Princess Regent!
Liu's eyes were red, and he carefully planned for his daughter, and in the end, his daughter was still kneeling in the ancestral hall and couldn't see the meat, and Bai Yanhui was so lucky that she could enter the palace to run for election!
Even if she knew her own status, Concubine Zheng didn't dare to think about it, but it was a little possible for the side concubine.
In case Bai Yan becomes the regent's side concubine, won't his family have to look up to him, and Chu'er will be pressed by Bai Yanhui for the rest of his life and can't raise his head.
"By the way, everyone in the house is broken now, you send someone to keep an eye on it, and no one in the ancestral hall and the Chu'er courtyard will pass the news in." Liu remembered something and hurriedly instructed Zhao's mother.
Although Zhao's mother said that she hurried to do it, she was still a step late.
Bai Chutao already knew.
Now the people in the house also know that the second lady is going to enter the palace when the tide rises, maybe she is a side concubine, and who doesn't want to get a piece of the pie.
It's just that the second lady is capable, and the maids in the yard are all purchased by herself, and she is very loyal, and she has no chance to get close to the second lady, so she can only take some partial moves, such as deliberately stimulating the third lady or something.
Sure enough, when Zhao's mother went to Bai Chutao's yard, Bai Chutao, who came back from kneeling, sat on the edge of the bed in a daze, as if she had lost her soul.
The maids gave her nothing but knee pads and gentle massages of her.
Mother Zhao was frightened, and went out to ask a maid, and when she knew that the young lady was out of the ancestral hall today, someone passed by and told the second lady about choosing a concubine, and the third miss became like this.
If they don't eat or drink, the maids are terrified.
When the Liu family received the news and hurried over, holding Bai Chutao was a heart-rending cry.
cried that his life was hard, and he worked hard to get into the position.
Crying that her daughter's life is miserable, just like herself, good things will never come to her.
"Mother, my daughter is unwilling." Bai Chutao sobbed low when she came back to her senses.
When Bai Chutao was a child, Liu's was just an aunt, and at that time, she would be blamed for quietly calling 'mother', and then Bai Yanhui's mother was gone, and Liu's was on top, and she could call 'mother' openly, but she liked to call Liu's 'mother' in front of Bai Yanhui.
Because that way can show that he has also become a descendant.
This is the 'mother' that Bai Chutao called out many years later, and Liu's heart was like a knife at that time, "Chu'er, don't worry, Bai Yanhui won't be so lucky, which candidate this time is not talented and beautiful, and the family is good, Bai Yanhui is just the queen mother added the herbal couplet that she remembered casually." ”
She's just an add-on.
Bai Yanhui's eyes flashed with jealousy, even if it was an addition, I wouldn't let her have a chance to rise, "Mother, what if?" If she is chosen, how can her daughter get ahead in the future. ”
Thinking of the terrible days when they were dominated by the side room concubine in those years, the mother and daughter finally felt that they had to make a move.
Since the palace decreed, Bai Yanhui had no way or could pretend to be sick, otherwise it would be disrespectful.
So there are other tricks, such as disfigurement, broken legs, such moves can't be done in the house, there will be someone in charge of the palace to investigate, to do, on the way into the palace.
At that time, Bai Yanhui will be alive or dead, and he will have nothing to do with Baifu.
Half a month is fleeting.
Mama An, who was given education in the palace, returned to the palace the day before yesterday, and Mama An was very relieved when she left, she had heard that the second lady of Baifu was weak, and she was worried that she would not be able to learn the etiquette in such a short time.
Who would have thought that this Miss Bai Er could understand it at a point, she was really smart.
Whether it is to meet the queen mother, the queen or the harem concubine, the number of etiquette is different, especially when choosing a concubine, each should pay attention to the points, this girl is very exquisite.
And during these days, I live very comfortably.
When Mama An returned to the palace, she ignored the etiquette for the first time and held Bai Yanhui's hand, "The girl is a person who understands, since she has entered the candidate, she knows the truth of going with the flow, but the way of weighing in the palace, the girl also has to take care of it, and it is difficult to have a good end in this world." ”
Bai Yanhui directly hugged Mama An, this Mama has served Chang'an, Chang'an played urine to take care of Mama An, and then Chang'an was gone, Mama An was also because of her wide connections, which was preserved, Rao is so, originally the princess of Chang'an was in power and became an ordinary parenting grandma.
It's also a time change.
The days are fleeting.
Bai Yan sat back in the carriage, painting the screen when she was around, and re-selected the painting fan in her yard to take care of affairs.
Suddenly, the carriage shook wildly uncontrollably, and Bai Yanhui also fell uncontrollably, and the picture screen was too busy to take care of himself, seeing that the young lady crashed straight out of the carriage and desperately pounced on it.
Bai Yanhui knew that the Liu family would not settle down, so before getting into the car today, he only hesitated for a moment before getting into the car, and he just wanted to stay away from the things in the palace, and he didn't want to be contaminated, if he could exchange today's accident for a clean next life.
Worth.
Bai Yan, who closed his eyes and let himself fall, thought about stumbling on the cold road, and when he went back to recuperate for a few months, he suddenly didn't feel pain, didn't he have a problem?
"Miss Bai Er, is this a hug?"
The frightened Bai Yan opened his eyes at this time, what happened?
Si Chenye hugged himself!
is still in public, on the way to choose the regent, this is good, he is safe and sound, and he may be the target of countless people when he enters the palace.
Bai Yan wants to cover his face and disappear from anyone, which is called being smart but being mistaken by being smart!
"Miss Bai Er doesn't have to be shy, there must be a problem with the carriage, there is still a distance on the way to the palace, why don't you take this king with you?" Si Chenye put down the white goose and returned, and by the way, he was very kind to put forward his opinions.
Before Bai Yanhui, who decisively wanted to refuse, could speak, Si Chenye whispered in words that only the two of them could hear: "Xin Ruhan! ”
