Mrs. Liu's expression was slightly stunned, Dai Da/Grandma also looked at her mother-in-law unexpectedly, Mrs. Liu smiled and said: "Wulang is so funny to speak, it's really interesting, how many people can't ask for it when he enters the palace as a nobleman, and he has become a sin?" Gorou is just funny when he speaks. \[\]”

"I think the same as Wulang," Li Danruo continued with a smile: "Don't say that the place in the palace is the home of the princes and nobles, if there are groups of wives and concubines, then it will not be easy to be a concubine, and my own daughter-in-law is always looking forward to her well, how can it be enough to be prosperous and rich?" I don't know how much blood and tears are hidden behind the glamour, if it is not desperate, why bother to suffer such a crime for those vanities? But this is the matter of the third aunt and the fifth sister, I am an outsider, so I have to say a lot. ”

Mrs. Liu and Dai glanced at each other, and said with a smile on their faces: "Yes, yes, you said yes, your third aunt said yes, in the end, they are separated, their family affairs, we don't care too much, since your third aunt and fifth sister have made up their minds, then let them go." ”

Li Danruo smiled and didn't answer, Mrs. Liu didn't mention this topic anymore, Dai Zhang Luo put on a snack, enthusiastically let Li Danruo, Li Danruo picked up and ate two pieces, accompanied Mrs. Liu to gossip for a while, and then said goodbye and went back.

In the evening, Li Danruo told Jiang Yanming that Li Lingbo wanted to enter the palace to be elected, Jiang Yanming frowned and said, "What does Mrs. Liu mean by this?" ”

"I see that she is also willing to enter the palace with her fifth sister in her heart, and the eldest aunt's heart is changing, but she doesn't know the depth of this matter, and she wants to explore my words." Li Danruo said in a low voice in a somewhat stunned voice, Jiang Yanming's brows tightened, and he was silent for a long time before he spoke: "Let them do this?" ”

"I can't help us, back then, the third aunt wanted to promise the fifth sister to the younger brother of Prince Jing's side concubine, but the wife refused to say anything, because of this, she also called the third aunt over and scolded her, but didn't the third aunt still secretly promise her family? At that time, the wife was still alive, and then it became like that, she never felt that there was anything wrong with her, only blamed others for not helping her, so those things happened, the wife herself cut off the medicine, left her last words, and let the eldest uncle and the third uncle Ding worry home, but the third uncle still took the love at the order, the third aunt and the third uncle, even the grandmother didn't go to her heart, I said, I'm afraid she won't even listen to it, the third aunt's temper is to ask people to help her completely according to her heart, but if there is a little bit of failure to do what she wants, that is, you are sorry for her, besides, the fifth sister's temper is also a dissuasion. ”

Li Danruo sighed in annoyance, and Jiang Yanming also sighed and said in a low voice: "Even if this is the case, you can't blindly go with them, you can't write two Li characters in one stroke, Liu Guiren is not easy to mess with, besides," Jiang Yanming paused and continued: "Besides, the fifth sister is good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and has all kinds of character and talent, so why bother to mix this troubled water?" ”

"Well, the fifth sister has been slightly smarter than the average person since she was a child, alas!" Li Danruo sighed heavily, looked at Jiang Yanming and smiled bitterly: "I'm afraid that she is such a smart person, her eyes will stare at the little interests under her nose, and she will fiddle with her little cleverness all day long, her eyes are above the top, her eyes are dusty, and she can consciously play with the people of the world, everything is her own fault with others, she entered the palace...... Li Danruo smiled bitterly and sighed, Jiang Yanming stretched out his hand to hug her and comforted: "Concubine Liu Xian...... Will it open the net? She is the concubine of the Li Mansion. ”

Li Danruo shook his head lightly: "It's not that Concubine Liu Xian is willing to do it, it's that she herself is willing to keep it, but her temper, besides, if she wants to enter the palace at this time, she must have plans and aspirations, how can she be willing to keep it?" No, I can't let her enter the palace, Mrs. Ning fought for the safety of the Li family with her life, I can't destroy her hands, I will go to the palace tomorrow and beg Concubine Liu Xian, or let her lose the election. Li Danruo made up his mind and said, Jiang Yanming stretched out his hand and rubbed Li Danruo's frowning and smiled: "That's fine, draw salary from the bottom of the kettle, completely end her mind, she is dead, this matter is over, okay, don't worry, look at you, there are wrinkles between your eyebrows." ”

Li Danruo rubbed his eyebrows softly by him, stopped mentioning this matter, and bothered about the bunch of little ladies on the paper.

Guo Shu sent over a few people who were all shrewd and capable, that's it, Li Danruo was also busy around for more than ten days, looking for all kinds of excuses and opportunities, before the little ladies on Concubine Liu Xian's list were carefully read in private, and went back at night to sort it out carefully, and the next day he entered the palace to find Concubine Liu Xian to return to the messenger.

“…… There are five little ladies in the Fan family who are quite old, three are written on this piece of paper, and there are two, one said that he was a concubine, and he did not dare to be selected, one was too young, only fourteen years old this year, these two I also looked at by the way, nothing surprising, first said that these three on the paper, the third lady is the youngest brother and daughter of Fan Xianggong, the temperament is soft and gentle, literate and courteous, a little cowardly, the biological mother passed away when he was four years old, and the father continued the next year to the current wife, the stepmother entered the door and gave birth to two sons, I heard that the father of the third lady is also weak, very afraid of guilt, This lady is very average to the third lady. ”

Concubine Liu Xian lifted the pen, and Fan Sanniang's name was scribbled and said with a smile: "The concubine of the Fan family does not dare to apply, it seems that this eye is staring at the queen's seat." Li Danruo smiled, moved his fingers down a line, and then said: "Fan Wuniang is the youngest daughter of Fan Xianggong, Fan Xianggong is nearly half a hundred years old to get this old daughter, she has loved her very much since she was a child, Fan Xianggong is very strict with her son, and she is very favored by this little daughter, this fourth lady is spoiled like a crab, and she has to go in and out horizontally everywhere, and she is quite smart." Concubine Liu Xian smiled at Ying Yingying, and drew a tick after the name of the fourth lady.

Li Danruo tilted her head to look at her, and Concubine Liu Xian smiled: "You go on." Li Danruo then continued: "Fan Liuniang is the daughter of Fan Erye, innocent and delicate, loves to talk and laugh, she doesn't look at people's faces when she speaks, people are annoyed, she can't see it, and she only cares about talking and laughing at herself." Concubine Liu Xian raised her eyebrows, and while laughing, Fan Wuniang drew a circle next to her name and said with a smile: "This is ready, and there are two more to talk about." ”

"The concubine is the fourth lady, cautious, cautious in what she says and acts everywhere, she shouldn't say a word, she shouldn't listen to a word, and there is a seventh lady, hearty and lively, very considerate of people's opinions, a few ladies of the Fan family, just count her likable."

"Forget about these two." Concubine Liu Xian smiled: "What about the little ladies of the Wei family? ”

"Several little ladies of the Wei family are very good, all of them are better than the daughters of the Fan family, among them, the six ladies of Wei are born well, the demeanor is beautiful, I see pity, it is really like a tender half-bloomed lotus flower, the father of the sixth lady, Wei Sanye, is a concubine, the sixth lady is very scheming, but it is too small, slightly inferior to the sixth lady is the second lady of the Wei family, the second lady is the daughter of Wei Xianggong, the birth is very gorgeous, just like a proud peacock, most of the time the chin is rushed."

Concubine Liu Xian laughed, hesitated for a while between the names of the two with the pen, but did not tick it, only signaled Li Danruo to continue, Li Danruo smiled: "The three ladies and the four ladies are all concubines, and the biological mothers are not favored, the Wei family did not report it, the fifth lady on this list is the daughter of the second master of Wei, she is a talented woman, she holds a book everywhere she goes, and she has to bring out a poem if she can't say two sentences. If you want to listen to her play the piano, you have to wait for her to play the piano and she is willing to play, I have waited for these days, and she has not heard it when she has no piano will. ”

Li Danruo spread her hands and said, Concubine Liu Xian laughed, Li Danruo continued: "There is also a seventh lady, who is the sister of the sixth lady, but the two sisters are very different, this seventh lady is not as good-looking as half of the sixth lady, she is picky by nature, and she speaks harshly and surprisingly, and everyone looks like people owe her hundreds of dollars." ”

"I like the crab girl of the Fan family and the peacock girl of the Wei family," Concubine Liu Xian clapped her hands, as if she had made up her mind, and said with a smile while sketching on the pen and paper: "Coincidentally, they are both daughters of two princesses, and they are evenly matched in terms of identity, as for the ...... of this sixth lady" Concubine Liu Xian pondered for a while, drew a circle after the name of Wei Liuniang with a pen and asked: "How is the relationship between Wei Liuniang and Erniangzi?" ”

"Wei Erniang looks down on Wei Liuniang's 'pretense', but Wei Liuniang treats Erniang very well." If Li Dan responded, Concubine Liu Xian pursed her lips and said, "Excellent? Who knows what is going on in my heart, it's good for the two of them to come in together, this kind of half-bloomed elegant lotus, maybe it can be right for the spleen and stomach of the official family, and the rest of the families are not outstanding? ”

"There are several," Li Danruo pointed to the list and said it one by one, Concubine Liu Xian chose six or seven more circles, Li Danruo looked at the names of those or ticks or circles, and said with a smile: "There is one more thing, I have to ask you to help." ”

"What's the matter? You name it. ”

"My fifth sister, Li Lingbo, the eldest daughter of Li Yushao, the governor of Huaizhou, also reported her name and wanted to come in to be elected," Concubine Liu Xian looked at Li Danruo in surprise, put the pen in her hand on the pen stand, looked at Li Danruo and frowned: "You don't want her to be selected?" ”

"Well," Li Danruo nodded in response, and Concubine Liu Xian frowned: "Is it she who wants to be chosen?" Have you persuaded her? Didn't persuade you? ”

"I didn't persuade her, I didn't go to see her, it was her mother who insisted on being elected, alas, it was also what she meant, her mother loved her very much, if she refused, she would never be forced to be elected, the fifth sister has always regarded herself as a talented woman, her eyes are above the top, her eyes are not dusty, and it is not suitable to enter the palace." Li Danruo explained with a wry smile, Concubine Liu Xian glanced at her and said, "You can't persuade and can't manage it, so you thought of such a method of drawing salary from the bottom of the kettle?" Okay, that's a small thing, and I'm going to do it. Li Danruo hurriedly smiled and thanked her, Concubine Liu Xian looked at her and shook her head with a smile, pointed to the names on the paper and said: "You remember these people, I will invite these little ladies into the palace to appreciate the chrysanthemums on the Midyear Festival, so that the official family can pass by, and you can also come in and help me watch some of them." ”

Li Danruo was busy, and talked to Concubine Li Xian about some details, and then went back.
