Chapter 106: Bow your head

After speaking, Jiang Youxi quickly opened the door and walked out, with a sense of running away.

"Mother, what about my father? The son saw the prince and the prince, the father must have come, why didn't the father come to see the son, did he really not want the son? ”

Nian Yu's voice came from outside the door, Zhao Yu was angry and funny, what an eccentric child.

"Who said my father didn't want you anymore?" As soon as Zhao Yu went out, he saw Nian Yu holding Jiang Youxi's hand, tears were rolling in his eyes, which was very pitiful, but Nian Ting was well-behaved and stood quietly aside.

"Father!"

When Nian Yu saw Zhao Yu, she immediately threw away Jiang Youxi, and ran to Zhao Yu's side with her little short legs, shouting vigorously to hug her.

That cute appearance amused Jiang Youxi.

Although the emperor did not agree to choose a concubine in the early days, now in the court, as long as there is a daughter, they all wish that the emperor would choose a concubine, and these courtiers also occupy the office.

If you want to say that there were only one or two people who had this kind of mind in the past, forget it, but now, nearly half of the ministers have said that if the emperor wants to find an excuse, I am afraid it will be difficult, and it is a matter of time before he chooses a concubine.

"It's inevitable for the emperor to choose a concubine this time!"

"That's not right, Xia Guan can remember the young lady in Shangshu Mansion, but she is good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, presumably, she will be able to choose."

"I've borrowed your good words, ah, hahaha!"

In the next dynasty, all the officials were happy to flatter.

Who is happiest when it comes to choosing a concubine?

Naturally, today's Taifu is indispensable, and her eldest daughter did something stupid a few days ago, offended the queen, and was sent to the outside of the customs.

These days, those colleagues seem to be afraid of getting into trouble, and they all avoid themselves one by one, and even the few people who used to be good friends with him have become estranged.

If it goes on like this, where will there be a place for itself in this court?

Now it's different, he still has a daughter who is like a flower and jade, gentle and lovely, as long as he can enter the eyes of the emperor, then his dilemma in the court can't be solved?

Yes, as soon as Master Taifu returned to the house, he went directly to his daughter Zhao Xunxin's courtyard.

"Daddy, you're here? Come and sit, this is the walnut crisp that my daughter just made, Daddy try it. Zhao Xunxin looked at Master Taifu with joy, since she could remember, Master Taifu had only come to see her three times in total.

In addition, some time ago, after her sister Rausch was disposed of by the queen's mother, her father was sad and sad for a while.

Her life in the house was comfortable, and when she heard the shouts of other people's eldest and second misses, she always felt that she was a head shorter than that slut in everything.

Now it's different, although the next person still calls the second lady, but she is the only young lady in the house......

"Xun Xin, you also sit, dad is here to tell you good news." Master Taifu looked at his well-behaved daughter and felt very relieved.

I thought that I had neglected this woman before, and I would have to compensate her well in the future.

"Good news? Daddy, what's the good news, Daddy came to look for his daughter, presumably this good news is related to his daughter? Zhao Xunxin looked at Master Taifu half-coquettishly, crisply.

"You're the smartest." Lord Taifu was disgusted, and the doting in his eyes couldn't be hidden, "Several ministers in the court have united to ask the emperor to choose a concubine." ”

"Choosing a concubine? Really, is the emperor really going to choose a concubine? Daddy, you didn't deliberately make it up to make your daughter happy, did you? ”

When Zhao Xunxin heard this, she was so happy that she couldn't help herself, and after thinking about it, everyone knew how much the emperor loved the queen, and threatened that there would be only one queen in this life, and she might suddenly choose a concubine.

"Daughter, don't worry, this kind of thing Daddy may be joking, although the emperor has not made a decree yet, it is ironclad, sooner or later."

Master Taifu paused for a while, and saw that his daughter blushed with shame, and he was happy for her in his heart, "Daughter, while the holy decree has not yet come down, hurry up and prepare to prepare, you must be able to enter the emperor's eyes, and the Zhao family will rely on you in the future." ”

"Daddy, don't worry, my daughter will definitely become the emperor's concubine." Zhao Xunxin was so happy at the moment that she couldn't close her mouth.

"Well, what do you have to do these days, go directly to the treasury to get the silver, you don't have to save it for your father, and it is the right thing to participate in the selection of concubines." Master Taifu gave Zhao Xunxin a good salute and kindly touched Zhao Xunxin's head.

"Thank you, Daddy!"

Anyone who sees such a scene will probably think that this is a model of filial piety between father and son.

And poor Zhao Xunyao was forgotten by everyone like this, of course, except for the current eldest lady, who is Zhao Xunyao's biological mother.

The words were divided into two ends, Qiao Xin fled the inn, and met Zhao Xunyao who was also assigned by mistake, and when he met Zhao Xunyao, Qiao Xin fainted.

Zhao Xunyao struggled for a long time, whether to save Qiao Xin or not, or decided to save it, after all, she is not familiar with life here now, and it is good to have someone to accompany her.

……

Prime Minister's Office.

Since Lou Yan was taken into the house by Prime Minister Cao Cheng, Prime Minister Cao Cheng accepted Lou Yan as a righteous daughter, what is delicious and fun, the first thing that comes to mind is Lou Yan. It's better than his own daughter.

Cao Yunxin cried a few times, but it was useless, but she was scolded by Prime Minister Cao Cheng a few words, and even threatened to ban her feet if she made trouble again.

She never thought that her father would want Lou Yan to participate in the emperor's concubine election.

"Daddy, why, why did you let that Lou Yan participate in the concubine election? She used to be unclear with the enemy prince, maybe, maybe she had already been broken by that prince, such a broken flower and willow, what qualifications did she have to participate in the selection of concubines? ”

may be too excited, Cao Yunxin didn't choose to speak, and as soon as the words came out, she was slapped by Prime Minister Cao Cheng and dizzy.

"Rebel girl! Lou Yan is the righteous daughter I recognize, and she is also your sister, can you say that about your sister? Is this your upbringing? Prime Minister Cao pointed at Cao Yunxin angrily, his eyes full of disappointment.

"Master, besides, Yun Xin is also your biological daughter, you can favor one over the other, for the sake of an outsider, and your own daughter?"

The prime minister's wife is graceful and dignified, but she can be regarded as a half-old, in her, Lou Yan is always an outsider no matter what, I don't understand why the prime minister loves her so much.

"Outsiders? Lou Yan is my daughter-in-law, you are the mistress of this house, Lou Yan is also your daughter, but you simply describe her as an outsider? Yes? ”

Prime Minister Cao Cheng has now made up his mind to protect Lou Yan, and the words he said were heart-wrenching, "I said that Yun Xin is usually well-behaved, why is she so mean this time, it turns out that you are behind your back!" ”

"Come on, please Mrs. and eldest lady go back, before choosing a concubine, without my order, you must not step out of the door for half a step, otherwise the family law will deal with it!"

"Sir!" The Prime Minister's wife was frightened and shocked on her face, she could imagine that the lord wanted to ban her feet for an outsider, and the lord had never punished her before......

"Cheap woman, it's all you, it's all you, why did you come to my house, why? If you don't die, I'll kill you! ”

Cao Yunxin vented all this on Lou Yan, slapped Lou Yan in the face, and the corners of her mouth were broken.

"What are you still doing in a daze, why don't you hurry up and bring the young lady back, do you want me to do it myself?" Prime Minister Cao Cheng looked at the maid and the little maid who were stunned, and no one stepped forward to stop it, and roared directly.

Only then did the maid react and quickly took the person down.

"Lou Yan, don't take their words to heart, don't worry, since Daddy accepted you as a righteous daughter, he will definitely not treat you badly, you go back and prepare, in a few days, Daddy will take you into the palace together."

Prime Minister Cao looked at the slap marks on Lou Yan's face, very distressed, and didn't know how to comfort him, so he left after saying a few words.

Lou Yan touched the painful and hot right side of his face, and a smile seemed to be absent at the corner of his mouth, "Jiang Youxi, just wait, your happy days are numbered." ”

"I didn't expect you to hate Jiang Youxi so much, I didn't make the wrong decision to come to you in the first place." , The little maid behind Lou Yan suddenly raised her head, and between her words, there was still a trace of the maid.

"Aren't you too? Don't worry, I promised you, I will never break my promise, and I will wait. Lou Yan was not surprised at all, presumably, she had already known.

Then I will rest assured, happy cooperation!"

……

For several days in a row, most of the courtiers would risk their lives to make a statement, asking Zhao Yu to determine the date of choosing a concubine as soon as possible, and Zhao Yu was miserable.

On the second day, Jiang Youxi invited Zhao Yu's will, and three days later, invited the civil and military officials to bring their wives and daughters into the palace to participate in the Hundred Flowers Banquet.

said that it was a hundred flowers banquet, and among those courtiers, it was clear that they wanted to choose a concubine for the emperor, and they all became active, thinking about the law to let their daughters be in the limelight at the hundred flowers banquet.

Time is fast and fast, in a blink of an eye, three days have passed, on this day, the various ministers' mansions are lively early, tidy up, and I can't wait for everyone to be the first to enter the palace.

"Where's Miss? It's not here yet, so hurry up and urge it. "Lord Taifu and the eldest lady, the second lady, and the third lady have been waiting at the door for a long time, and they also saw Zhao Xunxin come out, and they were a little anxious, so they sent someone to take a look.

After a while, the subordinate and Zhao Xunxin rushed to arrive, Zhao Xunxin was dressed in a white palace dress, although the color was plain, the fabric was excellent, and the workmanship style was also extremely exquisite.

Zhao Xunxin's figure is vividly and exquisite, and Zhao Xunxin deliberately added a veil, which makes it even more mysterious and expensive, which makes people shine.

"Okay, okay, it's my daughter, it's not too early, hurry up and get in the car." When Master Taifu saw it, the corners of his mouth couldn't close.

"Daughter, you have to listen to your father when you enter the palace, but don't learn from your sister, the angry queen mother, no one can save you when the time comes."
