Chapter 152
Qu Muge rested in Gu Nanye's arms.
Gu Nanye asked, "Seeing that you are busy all day, are you tired?" ”
Qu Muge shook his head and said, "Happy, don't feel tired." ”
"Someone else got married, and you are so happy? What do you do with so much effort. ”
Qu Muge recalled: "I will be happy when I see the newlyweds like fairy couples, I will be happy when I see the festive and grand sedan chair, I will be happy when I see the full dowry, and I will be happy when I look at the gorgeous and beautiful phoenix crown!" ”
He hugged the little girl gently, listening to her undisguised envious tone, and remembering her excited and happy appearance today.
Today, she has been guarding the bride all day, and she refuses to take her eyes off, how envious should she be?
Gu Nanye retracted his arm and whispered, "What others have, my little girl will have." ”
Qu Muge didn't expect him to say this, he was stunned for a moment, then nodded heavily, and replied, "Hmm! ”
The sense of happiness in his heart rose spontaneously, and Qu Muge hugged Gu Nanye tightly.
The two of them were tired of being in the carriage for a while, and Gu Nanye finally sent people to the palace gate, and he was a little reluctant.
Although they often meet in the Heart Cultivation Palace, Qu Muge is hiding behind the screen.
Qu Muge could occasionally hear Gu Nanye's voice, but Gu Nanye couldn't see anyone or hear the sound, he made excuses several times to stay alone to discuss with Emperor Yong, but Emperor Yongdi didn't notice his intentions, and didn't ask Qu Muge to show up.
So do the math, they haven't been alone for a few days.
Qu Muge took Gu Nanye's hand, and didn't want to get out of the carriage: "I've been really busy lately, I've been busy with this marriage, and I'm going to be busy with my father's draft later, I'm really a head and two!" ”
For the draft, Qu Muge has no experience at all.
As a princess, she is not suitable for this kind of thing, but Xiang Guifei was "sick" because Xiang Jia wanted to send Xiang Simin into the palace for the draft, and refused to take over, so Empress Dowager Yu had to ask Qu Muge to arrange a matter.
Gu Nanye suddenly regretted a little, she shouldn't have let the emperor and the queen mother trust her so much, making Qu Muge so tired.
He said: "As soon as the miscellaneous affairs are to worry about the household department and the internal affairs office, the emperor has a plan for which people to keep, you just follow them and go through the motions." And you have to learn to know people and make good use of them, and you don't have to do everything yourself. ”
Qu Muge nodded and wrote it down, hesitated for a while, and finally said goodbye to the palace.
Qu Muge probably saw too much Gong Dou, although Gu Nanye told her that she would send someone else to do it, but she didn't dare to completely let go of her hands, for fear that something would happen to her life.
A total of 268 women were selected and submitted to the household department from all over the country, and after two rounds of screening by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, 40 people remained, and finally the emperor himself selected them.
The day of the palace selection was set for February 26, and when the day came, Qu Muge asked the Queen Mother and Xi Concubine to accompany Emperor Yong to screen.
Emperor Yong took the roster in advance, and after hooking up a few young ladies from important ministers' families, he said to Qu Muge: "You can discuss the rest." ”
"But my father...... If you don't even show your face, the show girls will be very disappointed. Qu Muge held the roster and said embarrassedly.
Emperor Yong said indifferently: "Do I still want to make them happy?" ”
Qu Muge had never seen such an unconcerned "daughter-in-law", so he had to act according to the emperor's orders.
Qu Muge went to Chuxiu Palace alone, and Empress Dowager Yu saw the situation and knew that Emperor Yongdi would not come.
Since Emperor Yong's ascension to the throne, he has always had this attitude.
Empress Dowager Yu said: "It's not early, so let's start." ”
In fact, after many rounds of screening by the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the forty show girls who could be left behind were all young ladies from large families with good looks and innocent backgrounds, Qu Muge had nothing to ask, so he only kept the people he wanted to keep according to Emperor Yong's wishes.
Empress Dowager Yu picked a few others that were pleasing to the eye, and Concubine Xi did not dare to assert herself, so she completely followed Empress Dowager Yu's opinion to flop.
The speed of the draft was very fast, and in the end, a total of eight people were left, six of whom were hand-picked by Emperor Yong, and two were left by Empress Dowager Yu.
The eight show girls left behind are all placed in Chuxiu Palace, and their grades are all "good people", and after receiving a one-month training, they can start to sleep, and whether they can be promoted after that depends on their own creation.
Li Mujin had a good personal relationship with Xiang Simin, so she came to Qu Muge and said that she wanted to see Xiang Simin.
Qu Muge thought that Xiang Simin saw her in the draft, and he didn't dare to raise his head in shame, so he said to Li Mujin: "It's okay for you to go and see her, but she is now the concubine of her father, you can't call her sister anymore, you have to call her a beloved, don't let her be made fun of." She may be ashamed to see you, you enlighten her, we will not look up and look down in the palace in the future. ”
Li Mujin nodded and said, "I know, I went to her for this matter." ”
But Li Mujin only went for a while, and quickly turned back, and said with some anxiety: "I didn't find anyone, the palace people of Chuxiu Palace said that Xiang Liangren was called away by Xiang Gui's concubine." ”
Xiang Guifei is still old-tempered, and she really can't help it for a moment......
Qu Muge had a headache and didn't know whether to take care of this matter.
Even if she could save Xiang Simin once, she couldn't clearly turn against Xiang Guifei for her, and Xiang Simin was sent in by Xiang Jia, so she should have expected such a situation.
She thought about it and said to Li Mujin: "Let's take a look first, maybe their aunt and nephew have something to say, and it's not good for us to bother." ”
"Hmmm......"
Li Mujin couldn't find Xiang Simin, so he had nothing to do, so he stayed in the Tiyuan Hall and gossiped with Qu Muge.
"Third sister, you've been so busy lately, I came to look for you, and I haven't seen you eight times out of ten."
Qu Muge said helplessly: "Yes, I wish there were a few more hosts to take care of the affairs of the harem, so as to save me!" I have just finished the draft, and it will be the wedding of the eldest brother immediately, and the imperial grandmother told me today that I am going to prepare for the Qingming Festival to worship my ancestors! ”
Li Mujin hugged his head and said, "It's too capable, it's not good...... But how are you going to spend your birthday? There has been no movement until now, are you not going to hold a ceremony? ”
yes, it's her fifteenth birthday!
Qu Muge's birthday is March 18, and Li Youxian's wedding is March 16, she hurriedly forgot it, and others obviously don't remember it either.
When a girl reaches the age of fifteen, she will be able to perform the ceremony, and after the ceremony, it means that the girl has grown up and is ready to marry.
But there are also many people who have postponed the ceremony, and the queen mother and the emperor have not mentioned the ceremony to her, which means that they do not plan to marry her off this year.
Qu Muge was a little depressed when she thought of this, especially after watching Bai Yuanhui and Xie Zhiyin's wedding, she especially wanted to put on a red wedding dress for Gu Nanye.
Li Mujin felt disappointed that Qu Muge had been neglected, and hurriedly persuaded: "This year's time is in conflict with the wedding date of the eldest brother, and it is not suitable for a ceremony, so it will be better next year......"
