Chapter 55: Choosing a Concubine
Zhu Ajiao suddenly raised her head and smiled: "Brother Prince, Gillian and you don't look up and look down every day, will they really fall in love for a long time?" ”
Li Yuankang was stunned, "Why does your brain circuit jump so fast?" I was just talking about being lonely and rude to you. ”
Zhu Ajiao rubbed her eyes and said, "Gillian is just scared, after the prince's brother marries the side concubine, will he ignore Gillian." ”
Li Yuankang didn't answer, but walked under a flower tree, took something from his belt, hung it on the tree, and then, turned around and smiled at Zhu Ajiao, and left.
Zhu Ajiao saw it clearly, it was the wishful knot she made for Li Yuankang at will when she was keeping the New Year in winter.
It is said that it is a wishful knot, but it is just a euphemistic name, what kind of good-looking wishful knot can Zhu Ajiao's clumsy craftsmanship make? It's nothing more than two dog-tail grass folded together and folded into a heart-shaped pattern.
However, at that time, Li Yuankang liked it very much when he saw it, and secretly took the most beautiful one from the tree and collected it.
Now, Zhu Ajiao saw that the wishful knot was hung back on the tree, of course she understood that Li Yuankang was telling Zhu Ajiao in this way that even if he married a side concubine, he still had her in his heart.
Zhu Ajiao smiled sadly.
Pretending to be obsessed with Li Yuankang, he ran over with the wishful knot, "Brother Prince, wait for me!" ”
The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and finally it is the day for the prince to choose a side concubine.
In the imperial garden, the palace maids carried plates back and forth.
An old bow hung on the wall, and a quiver hung beside it, but there was no sword. On the pine chair in the center, there is a large white tiger skin.
This is arranged according to what Li Yuankang said.
And Li Yuankang is wearing a reddish-brown wide-sleeved python robe today, with a circle of gold edging at the hem, black satin pants underneath, and a pair of brown and yellow pants on his feet.
On the dark red coffee table, there is a reddish-brown tray, and on the tray is a bowl of steaming lotus seed soup, and the air is filled with a sweet smell. This is a table for the lady.
As Li Yuankang's adoptive mother, it is not surprising that she attended when choosing a side concubine.
Concubine Shu was wearing a silk gold thread embroidered cuckoo blood brocade robe, with yellow flowers lifelike, and a plain skirt underneath. As always, it's unpretentious and unassuming.
Moreover, Concubine Shu also brought in a female staff officer, who was Concubine Ouyang Huangfei.
Concubine De wore a white butterfly and a flower gown, a yellow silk coat inside, and a purple-blue pleated skirt underneath, sitting next to Concubine Shu, looking more gentle and dignified than Concubine Shu.
Then, the eunuch came over, opened the book, and showed Li Yuankang a series of names first.
Li Yuankang looked at it casually and said, "What does Concubine Niangniang think?" ”
Concubine Shu smiled: "It's better for the prince to like it." ”
Li Yuankang shook his head, "I haven't seen these people before, so I don't like them." ”
Concubine Shu said: "Since I haven't seen it, then next, let the prince see it." ”
Li Yuankang then retreated to the inner room.
Concubine Shu and Concubine De looked at each other and smiled, and said, "It's time to start." ”
The girls came in one by one, and after questioning, they performed their talents.
One of them is Concubine De's sister, Ouyang Minghua.
I saw that Ouyang Minghua was wearing a light gray lotus pattern top, covered with a tulle butterfly pattern cloak on the outside, and an embroidered silk coat inside, with a faint purple, and he quieted down at a glance.
