Chapter 199: Marriage Giving (5)

Fuqing came out of the Heart Cultivation Hall in just a moment's effort, and he said with joy on his face: "Little master, go in quickly, don't let Your Majesty wait." ”

He Xi nodded calmly, and then entered the inner hall with Ruyi, and the hall was burning with ambergris that could only be exclusive to the emperor's family, with a strong aroma and a sense of calmness, which made people unconsciously addicted.

"I still thought that you would be angry with me and the queen in Lingxiu Palace all your life." Above, there was a ridiculous laugh from Tuoba Chen, He Xi steadied his footsteps, and slowly said: "The concubine sees Your Majesty, Your Majesty is blessed with Jin'an." ”

Tuoba Chen glanced down at He Xi, only to see that her eyebrows and eyes were quiet, and she no longer had the resentment and ruthlessness she had before, her heart was slightly relieved, and he beckoned to her and said, "Come here-"

He Xi turned around and took the bird's nest in Ruyi's hand, personally stepped forward and put it on the emperor's desk, she stood aside obediently, and saw that there was a page on the emperor's desk, and it was written the names of some women, and the first in line was Wei Hongsleeve, which had been marked with a vermilion dansha pen.

With just one glance, she withdrew her gaze and stood aside with her eyes and nose and nose.

Tuoba Chen took the bird's nest and took a sip of it, and sighed: "This is made by the imperial dining room?" He Xi replied respectfully: "It's made in the concubine's kitchen, and a little tender ginger is added to it, does Your Majesty like it?" ”

Tuoba Chen tasted it carefully, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "Well, it's really ingenious, and it tastes good." ”

He Xi was praised, and there was no joy or pride, like a soulless puppet, with respect and meekness on his face, like a mask, on his face.

Tuoba Chen got up, took He Xi's hand and walked to the desk, pointed to the people on the table and asked, "Do you know who these people are?" ”

He Xi glanced at it, shook his head and said, "The concubine doesn't knowβ€”"

Even if she knows these people, these people are all marriageable ladies in the capital, they are all sixteen or seventeen years old, counting, they are only a few years younger than her, originally when she was still Mu Jin, she only met a few times, but she still knows Wei Hongsleeve, she is already talented at a young age, and she has heard her mother praise her, and when she grows up, she will definitely make the sons of the Beijing family flock to her.

Now that she's on the Emperor's roster, is itβ€”

Just as she was thinking about it, she heard Tuoba Chen say: "These people are all the princesses I chose for King Xian, I don't know what the concubine wants?" ”

He Xi's breath was stagnant, she thought that the emperor was going to fill in some numbers in the harem to check and balance, but she didn't want to choose it for Tuoba Yue, she originally looked at these and didn't have anything, but when she heard Tuoba Chen say this, she actually felt that these words became a little dazzling.

She forced herself to turn her face away, and said softly: "The people chosen by Your Majesty must be excellent, but Your Majesty just said that she chose a concubine, but is it a concubine?" ”

Tuoba Chen said: "This is naturally a concubine, these people are all talented and beautiful women in my capital family, such an identity, with a concubine, I am not wronged by the virtuous king at all." ”

He Xi pondered for a moment and said: "However, the concubine heard that the daughter of the Xiao family in Southern Xinjiang, Xiao Naike is in love with His Royal Highness King Xian, childhood sweetheart, is Your Majesty-"

Sure enough, He Xi's face sank when he saw Tuoba Chen, as if the last ray of brilliance had been put away after the sun had set. And then he fell into darkness and silence.

"The Xiao family is at most a century-old family, besides, King Xian's mother once committed suicide in fear of sin, although her father did not evaluate her too much, but after all, she is a concubine of sin, and the Xiao family has not been convicted of this, it is already considered a grace to the Xiao family, and their daughter is not worthy of our Xianwang." Tuoba Chen said coldly.

He Xi closed his mouth in disdain, looked at the candidate on the paper and asked, "Then this Miss Wei Hongsleeve is the concubine chosen by His Majesty for His Royal Highness King Xian?" ”

Tuoba Chen snorted, and He Xi pondered and said, "Red sleeves add fragrance, but it's a good name." ”

Tuoba Chen's expression softened, and then he sighed and said: "I always thought you were smart, so I would tell you this, King Xian returned to Beijing this time, I will definitely have some rewards, but I can only reward these." ”

He Xi nodded, which was regarded as an acknowledgement.

Fuqing suddenly walked over and stood in front of the door, Tuoba Chen glanced at it, and asked in a loud voice, "But what's the matter?" ”

Fuqing looked at He Xi and saw that Tuoba Chen did not react, so he said respectfully: "Your Majesty, after Imperial Physician Wei went out of the Heart Cultivation Palace today, he went to the Weiyang Palace of the Empress Niangniang, saying that he was asking for the Empress Niangniang's pulse. It's justβ€”"

Tuoba Chen looked at the paper in front of the case and said, "Just what?" ”

Fuqing hurriedly said: "It's just that this morning, Imperial Doctor Wei has already asked Niangniang for a pulse, and he will go again in the evening-" Fuqing didn't say any more about the latter words, he was only responsible for delivering the news, and as for the decision, he could only hand it over to the superiors.

Tuoba Chen smiled coldly and said, "This Wei Zhongliang is smart but is mistaken by clevernessβ€”β€”"

He Xi lowered his head slightly, Wei Zhongliang was afraid that he couldn't imagine that Tuoba Chen was going to choose a concubine for King Xian, after all, in the capital, everyone thought that Xiao Nai must be the best choice for Princess Xian, so Wei Zhongliang's reaction was understandable.

She smiled and said, "However, if Imperial Physician Wei knew about His Majesty's hard work, he would probably not be so full of soldiers." ”

Tuoba Chen seemed impatient, threw the paper on the table aside, and said, "That's it, it's just some mediocre ministers." ”

He Xi saw Tuoba Chen's impatience, and he was not comforted, but just quietly accompanied him.

In the evening, He Xi returned to Lingxiu Palace, she wrote a letter in front of the desk, handed it to Ruyi, and said, "You take this letter and find a way to send it to Uncle Liang." ”

Ruyi nodded and walked briskly.

He Xi played with the wolf in his hand and said secretly: Lan Ruo, Wei Zhongliang must want your help, but with Lan Ruo's intelligence, how could he not detect Tuoba Chen's intentions, but it doesn't matter, I'll help you.

At this time, in the military camp on the outskirts of Beijing, Rambo sat aside to rest after the military drill, and saw several people gathered together and whispered, and looked at himself from time to time, obviously discussing a topic related to himself.

Rambo stepped forward a few steps and asked loudly, "What are you talking about?" ”

Those people are also the sons of the generals and generals in the capital, and they are also quite flattering to Lan Bo on weekdays, and when they heard Lan Bo ask themselves, one of them said boldly: "Lan Gongzi, we are fighting for youβ€”β€”"

Rambo frowned, for some reason, he found a place to sit down, and asked, "What happened, how did I not know?" ”

The man looked around and saw that there was no one, so he whispered: "Of course you don't know, maybe the prime minister doesn't know about this matter." ”

Rambo saw that the man couldn't get to the point, and couldn't help but be a little impatient: "Don't sell it." ”

The man was reprimanded, but there was not the slightest displeasure on his face, and he said, "Do you know the daughter of Imperial Physician Wei, Wei Hongsleeve?" ”

Rambo couldn't help but be stunned when he heard Wei Hongsleeve's name, and he couldn't help but think of a woman with a good appearance in his mind, and he coughed lightly: "Miss Wei, who in Beijing doesn't know?" Hurry up and tell me what the hell is going on? ”

The man smiled awkwardly and said, "I heard a secret, King Xian has made a contribution to the treatment of the epidemic this time, and I heard that His Majesty intends to give Miss Wei to His Royal Highness King Xian as a side concubine." ”

Lan Bo's brows furrowed, and he said with some regret: "According to Miss Wei's talent, it's really a pity to just be a side concubine." ”

When the man saw Lan Bo like this, he was also filled with righteous indignation, and he said: "The most pity is not this, I also heard my father say another thing, that is, in fact, Miss Wei should have been promised to Lan Gongzi you, since ancient times, heroes and beauties, that Tuoba Yue just relied on his identity as a royal child, and he was able to do it, such a thing of snatching love with a sword, it is really-"

Rambo's eyebrows furrowed even tighter, and he said, "What did you say?" The man peeked at Rambo's expression, and said in a sloppy voice: "I said-this Miss Wei should have been married to you, and Imperial Doctor Wei went to find the queen mother because of this, but-" Rambo said with a mocking smile on his face: "But what? ”

The man swallowed his saliva and said, "But there is news that the Empress also thinks that Miss Wei should be married to His Royal Highness King Xian-"

A trace of displeasure flashed in Rambo's eyes, everyone in the world is like this, if it is said that at the beginning, Rambo and Wei Hongsleeve did not have a chance, then maybe he was just sorry, but now I heard that Wei Hongsleeve had the opportunity to marry him, and this feeling was completely different.

The man felt that he was afraid that he had said the wrong thing, and added: "Young Master Lan, you don't have to be angry, maybe this is fate, a matter of heaven, and the queen has no choice, right?" ”

Who knew that hearing this person say this, Rambo's smile became more and more cold, and he sneered and said: "Everyone thinks that I have a queen sister, and I must be very envious, but no one knows that this sister is better than nothing." ”

That person didn't dare to accept such words, after all, he was not a relative of the emperor, and he still knew the truth that came out of his mouth. Rambo didn't expect these people to say anything, he got up and said, "Today, I'll go home, you talk to the general." ”

The man nodded, and watched Rambo walk out.

In the Prime Minister's Mansion, Rambo entered the mansion angrily all the way, and the housekeeper saw it and was busy: "The son came back early today." Rambo glanced at him coldly and said, "Where's my father?" The housekeeper's heart sank, and he hurriedly cheered up and said, "The master went to Lord Zhao's mansion, and I am afraid that I will not be able to come back until dinner." ”
