Chapter 247 is determined

The empress's incomparably generous behavior quickly won a chorus of praise, and many ministers in the court, who had almost regarded the Wang family as a transparent person, reassessed her value. Li Zhi is now in the prime of life, and there are not a few people who want to send their girls into the palace to get a piece of the pie, but they have never had the opportunity.

Although Li Zhi's friendship with Yongning has always made many people uneasy, no one will believe in any "one life and one couple" in these years, especially Li Zhi, the main target, is still a monarch of a country who can sit on three thousand beauties, and there are not a few people who are waiting to see the jokes of Yongning and the Fang family in private.

Yongning actually didn't care much about whether to choose a beauty pageant or not, but when Li Zhi came to her with a weak face and stammered and explained to her a lot of things about power, balance and the like, she was very unceremonious and knocked Li Zhi on a private money, so in the next few days, she never gave Li Zhi a good look, but she tossed it like this, but Li Zhi quietly breathed a sigh of relief, although she had to be careful from time to time, but it was better than her ignoring it, when she didn't see him such a big living person

Qinhua is still young, and she doesn't understand what the word "beauty pageant" that she can always hear these days means, she just knows that Li Zhi doesn't like this word very much, every time she asks about beauty pageants in front of Yongning, Li Zhi will always wink at her, and even in order to keep her silent, she also promised her some conditions in private, so in the heart of Her Royal Highness the princess, beauty pageants are actually a very beautiful thing.

Li Cong is older, and he has been carefully taught by Fang Xuanling over the years, and Yongning has been imperceptible from time to time, so that he already has his own way and method of looking at problems. Originally, he was also suspicious of the beauty pageant, especially after discovering that the queen had quietly improved his reputation through this matter, and the anxiety in his heart couldn't be suppressed.

After the incident came out, he had been cautiously staying by Yongning's side, for fear that she would be sad about these things, but he carefully observed for a few days and found that Yongning only showed some concern about the beauty pageant when he tossed Li Zhi, and everything was as usual at other times, as if nothing happened. Yongning's performance made him often confused......

"Gorou, what's wrong with you these days?" When Yongning found out again that his son was secretly looking at her with a tangled gaze, he reluctantly put down the book in his hand and called Li Cong to him.

"Mother concubine......" Li Cong sat down next to Yongning, but he didn't know where to start.

Yongning groaned slightly, and guessed what Li Cong was struggling with, so he nodded at Qingyan and the others who were waiting in the hall, and asked them all to retreat, leaving only their mother and son to talk together. "Are you worried about your father's beauty pageant?" She didn't talk nonsense, she went straight to the point, but such a direct way of speaking seemed to make Li Cong a little uncomfortable, and the stunned gaze made her feel funny.

The undisguised smile in Yongning's eyes couldn't help but make Li Cong a little surprised, and he forced himself to calm down and said, "Isn't the mother concubine sad in her heart? ”

"How do you know I'm not upset?" Yongning said with a smile: "It's just sad, but it's not necessarily for others to see it......"

"No" Li Cong pursed his lips with a small face, and retorted unceremoniously: "The mother concubine is not sad, although every time your father comes, you look angry, but ...... But I just know that my mother didn't feel sorry for this."

Yongning was stunned, she didn't expect Li Cong to have such an idea, she couldn't help but sigh lightly, and was speechless for a while.

Yongning's sudden silence made Li Cong more and more uneasy, he leaned closer to Yongyao's side again, pulled her sleeve and shook it lightly twice, and shouted with a little grievance in his voice: "Mother concubine......"

Yongning took advantage of the situation to hold Li Cong in the crook of his arm, put his cheek on the top of his head, and whispered: "It's okay to say these words here in the concubine, just go out to others, no matter who it is, don't say it again, you know?" ”

Li Cong nodded, he didn't really understand anything, what words could be said to whom, he could still grasp this kind of proportion.

"Goro, you have to know that whether it is a relationship or a family, it needs to be maintained with heart...... Yongning thought about it, and still planned to solve Li Cong's confusion from the other side, after all, some things are a little heavy for children, and it won't hurt to understand them when they grow up...... "Your father and I have traveled all the way, and we have a cognition of each other that outsiders can't understand, for us, the causes, processes and results of many things are actually not so important, What matters is the attitude towards these things...... For example, your father will deliberately come to explain to me, for example, I will deliberately lose my temper with your father, because we have identified each other and decided that we will go on together for the rest of our lives, so we can calmly do anything in front of each other......" When Yongning said these words, his eyes were a little tender, and the corners of his mouth quietly rose unconsciously.

Li Cong's explanation of Yongning's non-explanation is actually not fully understood, but he can vaguely understand that Yongning is saying that between her and Li Zhi, there will be no misunderstanding because of things like beauty pageants entering the palace...... Li Cong's worries these days are just that he doesn't want his parents to be separated for some inexplicable things and inexplicable people, and when Yongning's words revealed these reassuring information, he soon stopped worrying about it. It's always easy for children to leave behind things that don't seem important when they get the answers. It wasn't until many years later that Li Cong had his own family and children, and when he looked back and thought about what Yongning had said, he had another feeling.

Yongning is in this married life, but he really has a feeling of getting better. After a little noisy and pleasant toss, she was able to discuss with Li Zhi very calmly the girls who were to be selected in the palace: this background is deep, and she should stay in the palace to be stable; That has a "good" temperament, and is suitable for staying in the palace to have a lively time; This appearance is outstanding, and it is suitable for staying in the palace to beautify the environment......

So a beauty pageant that made everyone in Datang pay extra attention to it, similar to a black-box operation, in the private discussion between Li Zhi and Yongning, the final result was determined. Of course, in the selection process, there will always be some "accidents", but in the list that has already been determined, only those that have been crossed out, but nothing else has been added......

In this beauty pageant, the Guanlong wealthy family and several major families have girls from their descendants or side branches entering the palace, and what their idea is, naturally everyone understands. Since Li Zhi, with the help of Fang Xuanling, forced the eldest grandson Wuji, who has always represented these wealthy families in the court, to return power and resign, although he has not shown the intention of doing anything to these wealthy families, but these big families who have been passed down for many generations have their own calculations, how can they not see that their own hidden worries are getting heavier?

And the queen's sudden proposal for a beauty pageant to enrich the harem has made these wealthy families vaguely see a glimmer of light, even if there is a 1 in 10,000 chance that their daughters can get the holy favor, then at this juncture, there will finally be a past day - the families with the same thoughts, at this time, there is no idea of fighting openly and secretly in the past, and the situation in front of them is clearly to live and live together, and everyone will die together, and they will naturally not coax at this time.

So in the process of the beauty pageant, there was a very strange scene, those girls who came out of everyone, actually carried forward the style of mutual assistance and mutual benefit one by one, and they just hugged each other, and fought to the end one by one, standing in front of Li Zhi.

Li Zhi seemed a little absent-minded in the process of pro-election, and the queen Wang who accompanied him didn't seem to find out, but just told him which girl this was, what talent she had, and what kind of temperament, and then asked Li Zhi to decide whether to go or stay......

A group of women who can stay are all on the list that Li Zhi forced Yongning to memorize early in the morning, but what surprised everyone was that the women who were included in the palace this time only got the title of "beauty" with the highest rank, and after a few months of tossing, no one even caught Jieyu, not to mention how disappointed the families of these girls who were selected into the palace were, even the queen Wang who proposed to enrich the harem was so disappointed that she didn't want to look at those young and beautiful little girls......

However, this disappointment is only a matter of a moment, and it is already like this, even if you are disappointed, it will not help. Having come to this point, I can only think about the benefits, at this time the position is lower, so what's the matter, as long as you can be favored, if you want to rise to the position, what is the difficulty? As a result, many people are holding such a mentality and always insisting on smiling at each other.

But the Wang family vaguely understands that these girls are in the palace, and they are afraid that they are difficult to be favored, just looking at Yongning's calm and clear appearance these days, she no longer has the idea of supporting people from these little girls. And as a wife, where is she really willing to look at those young and beautiful girls all day long? From the bottom of her heart, she also wished that these girls who didn't seem to be able to get Li Zhi's eyes would disappear from her eyes......

It's just that this thing of not looking at the beautiful little girl, but it is not up to the Wang family to decide, Li Zhi praised the queen's due diligence as if he was an official, and directly placed the newly left more than 20 little girls in the idle palace near the Lizheng Palace, and even deliberately placed the only two "beauties" in the apse of the Lizheng Palace, and deliberately explained to the Wang family in front of people to teach and take care of them, showing a very attractive look for the beautiful looks of these two beauties......

When Wang received such an entrustment, the smile on his face was so stiff that he couldn't hold it anymore. Although she had the intention of luring newcomers into the palace and hoping to share the grace of Yongning, when these women were piled up in front of her, she knew that this was a bad idea to hurt others and hurt herself......
