In the middle of March, although more than a month has passed since the beginning of spring, the weather in the north is still warm and cold, hot and cold, and it is the most difficult day of the year to rest.

The great general of Fuyuan, the elder brother of Emperor Kangxi, Prince Yu Aixin Jueluo. Fuquan suddenly suffered a cold wind at this time.

Emperor Kangxi is a person who attaches great importance to feelings, and has been close to his second brother since he was a child.

Fuquan pointed to the woman standing outside the hall door and said to Kangxi: "This is Dong E's seventy-year-old daughter?" ”

Kangxi nodded.

Fuquan looked at Kangxi, said with a smile in his eyes: "You are very attentive!" What about her, what do you think? ”

Kangxi shook his head.

Fuquan smiled again: "Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, why force it?" ”

Kangxi looked back at Qing'er and said quietly: "Look at those sons of mine, who do you point her out so that you don't wronged her!" ”

Fuquan smiled and teased: "My son felt wronged, so she pointed it out to my son, anyway, I didn't run out of Aixin Jueluo's house." ”

Kangxi replied to Fuquan with a helpless smile, shook his head and sighed, and said slowly: "I also hope that she will have a peaceful life, but her difference is destined that she will not be able to spend her life in peace." ”

Fuquan said: "Who to point her to, don't you have a choice?" ”

Kangxi shook his head with a smile: "There are too many candidates, so I can't settle down." He added solemnly, "She should be in her most suitable position." ”

As an emperor, in his eyes, everyone is a pawn and has his own place. But at the same time, he is also a father, he wants his sons to be happy, and he also wants Qing'er to be happy. He loves Qing'er because of her intelligence, her loyalty and filial piety, her kindness, and her love and righteousness. In the past few years, he has felt more and more that the waves between his sons are undercurrent, and he hopes that his sons can see the love and righteousness from Qing'er and feel the preciousness of family affection.

In the past six months, he felt that he might be wrong, and his sons were honest: the fourth child was more cold than before, just burying his head in things, but he could feel that he was unhappy, he had something on his mind, and he remembered a person in his heart, that person was Qing'er, he knew that the fourth child's temperament was rational and calm, and it was an accident for him to fall in love with Qing'er.

Lao Jiu has been drunk since Qing'er's disappearance, and he can't say the bitterness in his heart, the son who was nostalgic for flowers and regarded women as nothing, has now become infatuated and dedicated, as if having Qing'er alone, it is enough, as if nothing can compare to Qing'er.

Thirteen, thinking of thirteen, Kangxi was distressed, his son who had been competitive since he was a child, since Qing'er disappeared, he was not engaged in official business, and he lost his soul every day, so he secretly ran to the Cao Gang to find Qing'er by himself on the day of his southern tour.

There are other sons and daughters-in-law who seem to have grown up in 'girlfriends', because that is Qing'er's place, where Qing'er's taste, Qing'er's temperament, and Qing'er's feeling are there.

There is also the prince, who actually had a big quarrel with Suo Etu for Qing'er, which really made him feel uneasy.

Seeing such sons, he had to hide Qing'er, and he couldn't tolerate the existence of the woman who let his sons fight, but he couldn't do anything about Qing'er, Qing'er was too good after all.

This half a year has taught her to understand the relationship between men and women, and she should know who she should choose, if she doesn't know, then she will decide for him, and she can't let her choose indefinitely, her sons may be painful, but it is short-lived, time will dilute everything, and he knows that the longer Qing'er drags on the time, the more bad it will be for his sons, and he can't let things happen beyond his expectations!

Qing'er's eyes looked at the end of the road in front of the hall, where five people came over, in addition to the eighth, ninth, and tenth elder brothers, there were also two brothers, Baoshou and Baotai. The five of them were still in the distance and their eyes fell on her in unison, as if they didn't believe her existence. Yin Yu approached quickly, ecstatic, grabbed Qing'er's hand, and asked in a trembling voice, "Is it really you?" Qing'er! ”

Qing'er took a step back and dodged Yinyu's hand, and bowed to everyone: "Qingyang has seen you!" The standard flag dress, the standard posture, the standard smile, the standard tone, such a Qing'er reminded Yinyu of Hu Qing and Hu Qing's signature smile when they first met, neither humble nor arrogant, gentle and polite, but cold and alienated.

Yinyu slowly paced to Yinyu's side, and his face was as warm as jade, and he had turned back to calm from the previous shock, and his voice was flat, and he said calmly: "Qing'er, Huang Ama is inside!" ”

Qing'er smiled and replied, "Yes, Eighth Brother!" "Polite and courteous.

Yin'er looked at Qing'er and asked puzzledly: "Qing'er, you don't know us anymore?" What happened to you? ”

Qing'er smiled and shook her head.

Yinyu took another step forward and approached Qing'er's side, leaned over and grabbed Qing'er's hand, dragged her away and then stood still, and asked continuously: "You don't forgive me like this?" Blame me for that? Hate me so much? Isn't it? Are you so heartless? Unable to see what I do to you, and what I do to you, and ...... to you, do you want to kill me? Looking at Qing'er, who was expressionless as if nothing had happened, he finally couldn't help but go crazy, and the last sentence was extremely aggrieved. Qing'er, I've been worried about you for so long before you appeared, do you know how anxious I am after you are gone? Do you know how I spend my days these days?

Qing'er's eyes were cold, she withdrew her hand from Yinyu's hand, and bowed her head: "Brother Jiu, Qingyang doesn't know what you're talking about, but Qingyang has something to ask Brother Jiu, I wonder if Brother Jiu can agree?" ”

Yinyu looked at her with a painful heart, Qing'er, do you still say the word 'begging' to me? I know I'm wrong, and I'll give you whatever you ask. So, without hesitation, he said firmly: "You can say it, but don't say the word 'begging', I will promise you everything." ”

Qing'er's heart was relieved, and her face was sincere: "Thank you, Brother Jiu!" ”

Yinyu lowered her head and looked at Qing'er from the top of her head to the soles of her feet, today's Qing'er is different from the previous two times in women's clothing, with a delicate and smooth face, green eyebrows, and phoenix eyes and starry eyes. The body has grown much taller and fuller. The beauty is still the same, the temperament is still the same, but there is more of a woman's charm, and she looks more like a woman than before, and her heart is full of tenderness, and she can't help but slow down her tone: "What's the matter, you say." ”

Qing'er looked at the bottom of his eyes and said slowly, "Please treat my senior sister well!" After saying that, he bowed again.

Yin Yu glared at Qing'er, clenched his teeth, but there was anger in his phoenix eyes: "Do you know what you're talking about?" You just ...... like that" Before the words were finished, Qing'er had already bowed her head and saluted respectfully: "Qing'er retires!" Leaving Yin Yu, who was so angry that he wanted to beat someone, and a few other unknown people entered the hall alone.

Kangxi beckoned to Qing'er: "Qing'er, come here, let the prince see you!" ”

Qing'er bowed to Fuquan and saluted: "Qingyang has seen the prince." ”

Fuquan looked at Qing'er, shocked, and speechless for a while. Kangxi looked at him fixedly, and then said to Qing'er: "Qing'er, let the brothers come in." ”

Qing'er turned around and walked outside, Kangxi asked Fuquan quietly: "How?" ”

Fuquan shook his head, "This kid has had ups and downs in his life, and he is also a ......." ”

Kangxi asked again: "What?" ”

Fu Quan sighed: "Since ancient times, I hope you can give her a person who loves her." Emperor, treat her well! ”

Kangxi looked back at Yinyu, who was still angry as he walked into the door, with a faint smile on his face.

In the imperial garden, Kangxi and the Queen Mother were reading the draft girls. Concubine Hui, Concubine Yi, Concubine De and other harem ladies accompanied the emperor, and the queen mother was accompanied by Qing'er.

The Queen Mother turned around and beckoned to Qing'er, who was standing beside her, and only said in her ear when Qing'er leaned closer: "Do you remember what you told you?" ”

Qing'er leaned into the Queen Mother's ear and whispered, "Queen Mother, Qing'er remembers!" If these show girls are selected, they will leave her name tag, which is called leaving a brand; If you don't get selected, you put a sign. Then, the show girl who left the sign was re-selected regularly, and those who did not stay were re-selected, also known as the brand. The show girls who are selected again after the second selection are given to the royal family or the clan family; One is to stay in the palace, serve the emperor around, and become a candidate for concubine. Queen Mother, is Qing'er right? ”

The Queen Mother stretched out her hand to caress Qing'er's cheek, gestured to the show girl below with her eyes, and said with a kind smile: "Qing'er is the smartest!" That's right! Let's take a look, is there a show girl you chose? ”

Clear. Er smiled and hated the Queen Mother: "Queen Mother, how can Qing'er be qualified to read the draft girl, if it weren't for the Queen Mother's insistence, how could Qing'er come to this occasion?" ”

The Queen Mother held Qing'er's hand, put it in her palm, and said slowly: "Qing'er, I was reluctant for you to leave me, so I took you with me." Won't you promise me? ”

Qing'er looked at the Queen Mother, looking at this old man who doted on herself like her grandmother, she only felt heartwarming, her eyes were full of tears, and she couldn't help nodding: "Okay!" Qing'er promises you! ”

Kangxi's gaze inadvertently swept over the Queen Mother who held Qing'er in her arms and Qing'er who was lying on the Queen Mother's shoulder to hide her tears, bowed her head and said a word to the eunuch behind her, and then looked at the rows of show girls below.

When the eunuch read the name, the show girl saluted and replied, and the emperor and the ladies judged whether they should put up a sign or leave a sign from their appearance, voice, figure, manners and movements.

After a while, a group of people rushed into the garden, from the prince to the third elder brother to the fourteenth elder brother, everyone ignored the show girls who were participating in the election, stood still in a daze, and looked at the slim Qing'er beside the queen mother. The first to feel disrespectful was the third elder brother, and after the third elder brother took the lead in bowing, the rest of the people reacted, and after greeting the emperor and the queen mother and the ladies with uneven tones and movements, they couldn't wait to look at Qing'er.

Qing'er leaned over and saluted everyone: "Dong E Qingyang has seen all the elder brothers. The corners of his mouth showed a self-deprecating smile: It was unexpected that the show girl who was supposed to participate in the draft was here to accompany the Queen Mother to read the draft girl!

"You say, you've been in the palace all the time?" Yin Zhen grabbed Qing'er's shoulder and arm, looked at Qing'er fixedly, and said suspiciously.

"Yes, Four Baylor!" Qing'er looked at Yinxiang on the other side. "I'm sorry, senior brother, I'm worried about you!"

Yinxiang shook his head, he was really stupid, he didn't expect that Qing'er would be in the palace, since the Mid-Autumn Festival, how could there be no Huang Ama by Qing'er's side!

"You said, Huang Ama personally took you back to the palace?"

"Yes, the emperor said. When I woke up, I was already in the palace. I've been in Cining Palace these days. ”

"When we went to greet the Queen Mother, you didn't see us? You're avoiding us on purpose? Yinxiang didn't believe that Qing'er would be like this.

"I'm studying, I didn't know you were coming." Qing'er shook her head, and suddenly realized that this was the case, and the emperor deliberately let her avoid it.

"Learn what?" The two asked in unison.

……

"Why don't you answer, Qing'er, who is teaching you?" Yinxiang asked worriedly again, and glanced sideways at Yinzhen.

"Mama Qu." The voice is low and timid. Thinking of those teachings, it really made her a little unacceptable.

Yinzhen and Yinxiang looked at each other and smiled, no wonder Qing'er has become so much like a 'woman', it turns out that she has been educated by Mama Qu.

"Alas! I hate it, what are you laughing at? You've gone too far! Qing'er pouted and blamed the two of them.

"It seems that Mama Qu didn't teach you well! You don't look like a woman yet. Yinzhen shook his head and looked at Qing'er with a smile and said.

"Fourth brother, don't force Qing'er, after all, she has been playing a man for more than ten years, and he has always been so casual, don't restrain her."

"It's still my brother who treats me well. Senior brother understands Qing'er best. Walked quickly to Yinxiang's side, put his hand into the crook of his arm, and looked at Yinxiang with a smile.

Yinxiang looked down and saw the tenderness in Qing'er's eyes, stroked her hair more and more fondly, and whispered: "You are a woman now, Qing'er, you have grown up." ”

Qing'er, senior brother finally waited for you to grow up.
