Chapter 201 Rumors of Concubine Selection
The queen's calculations in Fengqi Palace, Concubine Ling naturally didn't know.
At this time, Concubine Ling was busy planning and arranging the flower-viewing banquet ten days later.
For An Cheng's unsuccessful selection of concubines, this is a first-class event, half a point of sloppiness, any little detail, Concubine Ling is doing it herself, she simply has nothing to do, with these things to keep her busy, but also to avoid her cranky.
At the same time, the people of Beijing were boiling again.
The selection of the princess is a major event, and when it is not selected, there is generally no rumor, and it is just circulated among the nobles.
It is only after it has been chosen, when the decree is given, that it will be widely announced.
But now, the eleventh prince wants to choose a concubine, and this flower-viewing banquet has not yet begun, and those who are about to enter the palace to participate in the flower-viewing banquet have all been pointed out.
It's nothing to be broken, it's just that those who are invited, their identity and family background are not very glorious.
At the very least, in a place like Jingshi, where the emperor's relatives and high-ranking officials and aristocrats run everywhere, officials below the fifth grade, although they are Beijing officials, are only small officials the size of sesame beans.
Compared with the eldest daughter of Zhenguo Gongzi who retired before, it is simply a group in the sky and a group on the ground, and there is no comparison at all.
But the legs of the eleventh prince are not conducive to walking, and it is understandable to choose these small families with ordinary family backgrounds.
After all, those with more noble status, who wants to serve a cripple for the rest of their lives, is that tantamount to keeping a widow alive?
Besides, among these powerful families, which one should not choose a marriage that is beneficial to the family.
The physical condition of the eleventh prince is destined to be unable to make achievements in the court, and he will stop at a prince's position in this life, and there is no future at all, and those families who have a little more long-term vision will not be willing to send their daughters to the Anwang Mansion.
The people couldn't help but feel a little pity for An Chengluo.
These eleven princes are probably the worst among the many princes, and even the candidate for this concubine can't choose a big family with a head and a face.
Although those people, for ordinary people, are also incomparable, but compared to the royal family, it seems a little unsuitable, the eleventh prince has fallen into such a situation, how can it be a miserable word.
Feng Shi was in a hurry, and with a little anger on his face, he came to An Chengluo.
Before he could speak, An Chengluo asked indifferently: "Who provoked you with this appearance of looking for someone to fight?" ”
Feng Shi looked angry, hugged his fists and said: "Lord, the palace has held a concubine banquet for you, and now the entire Beijing division has spread it all over, Concubine Ling Niangniang doesn't know what to think, and the choice is not a young lady from a big family, those people are talking ugly, and the subordinates are just angry." ”
An Chengluo smiled lightly and shook lightly, and said: "What's so angry about this, in the eyes of outsiders, this king's legs are disabled, although those people's status is low, but they are also more suitable for this king at this time, the mother concubine is hardworking, how can you understand." ”
Feng Shi listened, but still couldn't swallow this tone, and said: "My subordinates just don't understand, isn't this a joke for you to give people plainly?" ”
An Chengluo raised his head, looked at the blue sky, and stretched out his hand to cover the dazzling sun, although it was winter, the sun at noon, the sun sprinkled on people's bodies made people feel warm in this winter, but it was still dazzling.
After being silent for a long time, he slowly spoke: "Those who are in a high position, just like this dazzling sunshine, in this winter, although they can make people feel warm, but they can't look at it directly, the more people in high positions, what they are planning is naturally to go further in the court, if the mother concubine chooses those people's daughters to enter the palace, even if they really choose someone in the end, I am afraid that they are also humiliating." ”
Feng Shi pursed his lips tightly, his brows furrowed in one place, he was able to understand the words of the prince a little, just like the eldest daughter of the prince of Zhenguo, and finally ended up withdrawing from his family, that is the real joke.
A prince, if he is dismissed several times, he can't keep his face, but I'm afraid it will become the biggest joke in history.
With a shallow smile on the corner of his mouth, An Chengluo continued: "The mother concubine knows the king's intentions very well, and choosing these people with ordinary family backgrounds is not to cover up the king's intentions, those who are in high and powerful positions, although they can be regarded as icing on the cake, but they also widen the gap between them, and then the king will not be easy to choose." ”
Feng Shi's eyebrows and eyes instantly stretched, a smile appeared on his face, and he said: "My subordinates understand, Concubine Ling is afraid that the identity of those noble girls is too noble, and the non-night girls will be compared to them. ”
An Chengluo threw an appreciative look at Feng Shi, which was not bad at all.
But it's not just a non-night girl, but also Hua Xian'er.
Although the Jiangnan Hua family has a prominent reputation, it is still a little worse than those in Beijing.
Feng Shi gave a thumbs up and said: "Niangniang and Wang Ye are worthy of being mother and son, and Niang Niang's heart for Wang Ye is really very intimate." ”
An Chengluo raised his lips, his mother concubine has always been towards him, there is no doubt about this.
Although he doesn't care much about it, he can walk the streets and alleys and be known to the people, but I'm afraid that someone is manipulating it behind his back, fueling the troubles, and blocking her mother's concubine plainly, how can he do what the person wants.
Retracting his gaze, An Chengluo raised his hand and rubbed his somewhat painful eyes, and said slowly: "Go and find out who released the rumors, this matter is remembered by the king, and if you find an opportunity in the future, you must repay it well." ”
Feng Shi clasped his fists with both hands and replied seriously: "Yes, my subordinates will check immediately." ”
Wu Qing and Jiang Ling have been secretly rushing to Tiantai Mountain for several days, and the matter of Tiantai Mountain is not to be delayed, and now among this Beijing Division, there is only one Xie Fei who is lying on the bed and still can't get off the ground, and Fengshi.
Events, big and small, all fell on Fengshi.
The sand sculpture guard in the capital was also temporarily handed over to Feng Shi to call, although this made Jiang Ling very dissatisfied, but now it was an eventful time, even if he was reluctant, he could only obey orders.
Besides, Jiang Ling went to Tiantai Mountain, and the matter of Jingshi was beyond his reach, so at this time, it was naturally more appropriate to hand over the sand sculpture guard of Jingshi to Fengshi.
The sand sculpture guard came out, and it didn't take long to find out the source.
At first, it came out of the mouths of a few idle wine men, these people are famous in a certain part of the capital, at first most people don't believe it, just think they are talking about wine, how can there be more people who say it, naturally, people can't help but don't believe it.
And these winemakers have all been in contact with the same person before, and after investigation, this person is from the palace office, and this person is the queen's minion.
