Chapter 19: Edge

After a day of shopping, the excitement of not having enough fun made Anxin and Jiaojiao not feel sleepy, but the grandmothers of the two strictly asked them to go back to sleep and prepare to enter the palace tomorrow, and there must be no dark circles under their eyes.

Anxin couldn't sleep, she turned over and over in bed, thinking that she would finally be able to see Shizi's brother. While thinking about it, even the passers-by in the capital thought that Brother Shizi would make trouble. Such an excellent brother, everyone can see it. And he is just the prince of the world, if he is too good in the capital, where will the prince's face go? That's not a good thing. No way! Brother Shizi is dangerous!

Feng Hanchen, the son of Prince Feng, who was considered to be in danger, had also rushed to the capital within the deadline. Because of system problems, the only people who followed him back to Beijing to receive the reward were his personal guards, and they could only be the number of two squads. It is estimated that there are many people coming, and the one sitting on it will be flustered.

It was the eldest prince who greeted Feng Hanchen outside the city gate, and after the two finished speaking, the two teams, a team of forty people, actually said that they could not enter the city gate, and could only camp outside the city. As a general, Feng Hanchen can only bring an errand guard into the city. And the eldest prince smiled kindly, and said that he had wronged the prince. Everyone is a brother, and tonight I will arrange for you to live in the Xuanfeng Palace of the Imperial Palace. Living in Xuanfeng Palace is the treatment of a prince, in that palace, there is a hall, and there are several small courtyards scattered behind, and a prince has a small courtyard. If you live there, you can save face.

In this way, Feng Hanchen took his big errand Liang and lived in Xuanfeng Palace.

Is this worth it? It wasn't dark yet, and the news spread in the palace. On the face, it is said that the emperor values this son, and his father is a brother who worships the son, so he is regarded as a nephew, and it is appropriate to live together. Isn't Lizi meaning to test the son of someone else's family whose folk reputation is higher than that of all princes?

It was just dark, and the big eunuch next to the emperor came to congratulate him on behalf of the emperor, and the scene was clear. Then the third prince came, and he came with wine. It is said that it is a rare wine that was packed and brought in at the best restaurant in the capital today.

Washing away the dust, Feng Hanchen, who changed into casual clothes, sat down with the three princes and drank wine, and his bearing was not bad at all.

The two talked about the military, the border customs, and then the customs of the capital. Most of the three princes said that Feng Hanchen should say a few words. The third prince also complained in his heart, if it weren't for his mother who said that he wanted to win over the border city, he wouldn't want to come to Feng Hanchen for such an embarrassing chat.

In the end, the third prince also said: "Brother Hanchen, today I met an interesting girl in that restaurant. I haven't seen it in the capital before, so I guess I came to the Spring Festival banquet this time. said that it was a spring banquet, but in fact, the queen mother wanted to take this opportunity to meet the ladies of various families and prepare for the selection of concubines in two months. I really don't know, will the queen mother keep her and let her enter the list of concubines? ”

"And the girl who interests the third prince?"

"She could hear the Assassin on the second floor drawing a bow in a noisy restaurant! Today, she saved me once. The next time I see her, I'm sure I'll be able to ask her name. "The smile of the third prince is very gentle.

The sound of a bow draw? Feng Hanchen's hand holding the wine glass couldn't help but stiffen.

Before Anxin was ten years old, when she lived in the Ye family, he often went to the Ye family to play with her. Go when you're upset, go when you're bored, and look at her smiling face that can't be seen by your eyes, so that he feels that in this world, not everyone will design for him, at least Ye Anxin will give him a sincere smile.

At that time, one of the games they often played was to listen to the sound of the bow drawn.

When you tie the arrow feathers, you will adjust the feathers to make the arrows louder. He drew his bow and shot arrows, while she was blindfolded and smashed him with an apple, just listening to the sound of arrows. Of course, the arrow, which was wrapped in a thick red envelope ball by her, really shot, will not hurt. And how could Feng Hanchen be willing to make her hurt, every time she pulled the bow, she could hear the sound with peace of mind, and the apple smashed it mercilessly.

Today, the person who saved the three princes once should be Ye Anxin! And damn it! Is the third prince still looking forward to seeing Ye Anxin again tomorrow?

Feng Hanchen put down his wine glass: "Okay, I'm a little drunk." Three princes, thank you for the wine. I'll go and rest first. I'm going to see the beautiful women tomorrow. ”

In the palace courtyard, there are a total of twenty-six young ladies, and I heard that in addition to these twenty-six, there are eleven in the capital who participated in the spring banquet. Together there are thirty-seven young ladies. Among them, only Ye Anxin is alone, and he has a marriage contract. The others are all women of school age in the family who have not yet been married.

When she heard Mama Su say these inquiring information, Ye Anxin, who was already wearing a new dress, removed the step shake on her head and said, "Mama, help me choose a plain skirt, just wear it usually." Today, just like usual, just wear this little hairpin. ”

"Miss, what are you talking about? Today's attendees are the emperor, the queen, and the ladies of the palace, and all the princes and princesses are also there. ”

"Just do as I say!" As she spoke, she had already removed the bracelet from her wrist. Judging from the identity of the participating lady, her appearance is different from others. What the queen wants to see is what kind of person Feng Hanchen's fiancΓ©e is.

Brother Shizi is good enough, if she is equally good, it will only make people feel that Brother Shizi will definitely make trouble in a few years. The edge is too exposed, easy to fold!

At the palace spring banquet, among the thirty-seven young ladies who appeared in the back garden, only Ye Anxin was a little girl with light makeup on her face and only a small hairpin on her head. Others are all showy, and they look at people differently. Look at the young ladies of the family in the capital, and look at the young ladies who come up below them, their eyes are slanted. Look at Miss Wei, who is like a peacock, why is she so stupid? Don't you understand this? No matter how beautiful she dresses up today, it's useless! To let her come is just to save face. What kind of family background does Miss Wei have? The daughter of the younger brother of the princess and princess! This blood relationship is really involved, and it can be pulled to the previous dynasty. The emperor can respect Prince Feng, the granddaughter of the princess of the previous dynasty, but it is absolutely impossible to choose a person who is related by blood of the previous dynasty as a daughter-in-law!

Jiaojiao was dressed in a fashionable skirt in the capital, a beautiful headdress, and a red mouth, asking Anxin: "Why did you come here like this, don't you change your clothes?" ”

"I, I don't have any other clothes. I think this dress looks good, too. ”

The delicate little mouth is even more pouting.

The ladies enjoyed the flowers in the back garden for a while, and the queens, mothers, and princesses in the neighborhood all recognized these young ladies almost. Only at the eunuch's voice "The queen has arrived!" Under the voice, he took a seat.

In a large open space in the back garden, tables were set up, and seats were taken according to their respective grades. The queen is in the first place, and the first person sitting in the lower left is Prince Feng and Princess Feng.

Then the princes were seated. The princes sat on both sides. Mama said that there were five princes, the oldest was thirty-one years old, and the youngest was sixteen years old. Anyway, these princes have nothing to do with her Ye Anxin, and she is not nervous, unlike Jiaojiao next to her, who is in a cold sweat when she pinches the handkerchief. And the eunuch shouted loudly: "Prince Feng has arrived!" ”
