Chapter 165 was selected
Princess Cheng's proposal, Han Xiao had no opinion, and Wu and Cheng Yuanniang did not dare to have an opinion.
The twelve alternate beauties couldn't help but look at each other. It's like an exam, the results are announced three days later. In three days, maybe you can still do something.
Now it's announced on the spot, and I don't have a chance to do anything if I want to.
"It's still early, and it's not too late to write after the banquet." Princess Cheng said with a smile, "It's rare to have a happy event in the house, and you must have a good day." ”
Han Xiao said: "Obey the princess's arrangement." ”
The Hundred Flowers Banquet officially began, that is, eating, drinking, and watching the song and dance performances.
Princess Cheng is the most leisurely, listening to music and watching beauties. Han Xiao has always been calm and calm, and this time is no exception, only occasionally when he looks at Shen Xiu, his eyes are very gentle.
It's just that others don't have so many good moods.
is the same background board as Nian Ruolan, in such an environment, I also feel a little pressure.
Because there is no dowry, he can't marry a good family, and he is unwilling to marry low and endure hardships.
But now that I want to go to the palace to beg for a living, is this decision right?
"Speaking of which, this Miss Shen, I look very familiar." Cheng Yuanniang said suddenly.
It was already a little cold, but when Cheng Yuanniang suddenly said this, everyone's eyes suddenly looked at Shen Xiu.
I saw Shen Xiu's eyes indifferent, and said, "Yes, I have had several relationships with the princess. ”
"It's really a good admit." Cheng Yuanniang said coldly, "Among the women I have seen, you are ......"
"Enough!" Han Xiao interrupted, "If you get drunk, go down and sober up, don't get drunk here." ”
Such a merciless reprimand, not only Cheng Yuanniang was stunned, but even the Wu family and the eleven candidates were also stunned.
Cheng Yuanniang ridiculed Shen Xiu on the spot, although it was very undignified. But Cheng Yuanniang is the wife, and Shen Xiu is also a side room even if she is elected. In front of Princess Cheng, she is so openly protective, and I am afraid that this Shen Xiu will go to heaven in the future.
However, the person concerned, Shen Xiu, seemed very indifferent, or rather, from the beginning, she was a feeling outside the situation.
Whether it was coming in with Han Xiao or Cheng Yuanniang's provocation just now, she had nothing to do with me.
"I ......" Cheng Yuanniang suddenly blushed, feeling embarrassed, but she didn't dare to refute, so she could only look at Princess Cheng.
Princess Cheng sighed softly, with impatience in her tone, and said, "Alas, it's another dispute, it's really annoying." Forget it, let's start writing candidates, end early, and it's quiet. ”
The topic changed, and the singer, who was originally playing and singing, immediately retreated.
The big eunuch standing next to him presented the prepared pen and ink.
Wu and Han Xiao wrote it automatically, but Princess Cheng and Cheng Yuanniang wrote it by the little eunuch around them, which is also a common thing, write a name for yourself, the master doesn't want to write, let someone write on his behalf.
After the four notes were written, the great eunuch went over to collect them, stood in the middle and began to read them.
"The princess of the county has chosen the candidate, Wei Yu, madam. Nian Ruolan, ma'am. The great eunuch read aloud.
Nian Ruolan was a little surprised, thinking that she could be a concubine at most. I didn't expect the Wu family to mention her position so generously, under the name of the county king, in addition to a concubine, there are also two lady positions, both of which are six grades.
As long as she can serve on the jade plate, whether she is favored or not, she can enjoy the treatment of a lady. Girl of the month, there will be no less.
She never wanted to compete for favor, nor did she think she would be favored. As long as she is given a place to live quietly in a corner, she will have nothing more to ask for.
Wu treated her like this, and she was very grateful.
"I was selected for the ......" Wei Yu looked very surprised.
She didn't think she had performed well, but she didn't expect to be really selected as a lady.
Wu smiled and said, "My sister is so cute and moving, I like it when I look at it." ”
Although it can't compare to Shen Xiu, Wei Yu is also beautiful like a flower, and he looks easy to control. Maybe in the future, she can really add a piece to the county king's mansion, and it will not hurt her.
One more person, multiple helpers, is not bad.
"Princess Xie Jun." Wei Yu smiled happily.
The big eunuch beckoned to Nian Ruolan and Wei Yu and said, "Please come to the middle with the two young ladies." ”
Nian Ruolan and Wei Yu got up and stood in the middle of the hall.
The big eunuch continued to read out, followed by Cheng Yuanniang's note, but it was unexpected: "Nian Ruolan, concubine." ”
"What a coincidence." Wu immediately smiled, looked at Cheng Yuanniang and said, "I didn't expect that I have the same vision as the princess, since the princess also likes Miss Nian, I will cut my love." ”
Cheng Yuanniang wants Nian Ruolan, but she is just fighting against her.
But accepting Nian Ruolan is a favor. Now she has done enough to favor people, but Cheng Yuanniang grabbed people halfway, so it has nothing to do with her.
At this time, if you don't pick someone who is beneficial to you, but only cares about playing against her, Cheng Yuanniang's stupidity, even if her aunt is Princess Cheng, she can't save it.
"Then I'll take it." Cheng Yuanniang said angrily.
Nian Ruolan stayed on the spot, only feeling that she had gone from heaven to hell in an instant, and there was only one concubine and two side concubines under the name of the prince.
Although after becoming a prince, there are still two wives. But who knows when Lord Yan will die, if it is ten or eight years later, there will be too many changes. There are a bunch of beauties, where can it be her turn.
If it is under the name of the Wu family, she is now a famous lady, and there is still hope for life.
was intercepted halfway by Cheng Yuanniang, but she had to start from the concubine, and she didn't know how much she had to suffer.
"Hand-picked by the prince, Shen Xiu, side concubine." The great eunuch continued.
No one was surprised, Shen Xiu got up and stood in the center, there was no joy or depression on his face, and he looked extraordinarily calm.
"I disagree!" Cheng Yuanniang suddenly slapped the table and got up, almost roaring, pointing at Shen Xiu and saying, "She ......"
"Enough!"
The reprimand again came from Princess Cheng, who waved her hand directly and said, "The princess is drunk, send her back." ”
"I, I ......" Cheng Yuanniang cried, infinitely aggrieved in her heart, but she didn't get any mercy.
Princess Cheng said in a deep voice: "Aren't you ashamed enough, you don't like your husband, you don't want to think about why." On the contrary, he is jealous of others every day, and he is not the unification. ”
Such a reprimand, especially the tautology in front of a group of selected women, even the Wu family was surprised.
Although Cheng Yuanniang is very excessive, she openly opposes her husband. But Princess Cheng's reprimand also trampled Cheng Yuanniang's face to the ground.
"Woo, woo......" Cheng Yuanniang cried and was persuaded away by her subordinates.
The scene suddenly became cold, and the great eunuch who read it out was even a little overwhelmed. Halfway through the banquet, the princess was invited away, which is also a toss.
"Go on." Han Xiao said.
The big eunuch immediately took out the last note, Princess Cheng's.
"Wei Ling, side concubine, Ye Fu, Ye Wei, concubine." The great eunuch read out.
At the same time, everyone present was a little surprised.
Three have been selected, and three more have been added, twelve people, six people have been selected, far more than expected.
The three of them got up and entered the ranks, among which Shen Xiu and Wei Ling were side concubines, standing side by side in the first place.
Wu couldn't help but look at Wei Ling, and was very surprised in his heart. Seeing Wei Ling's first glance, she didn't think about it.
The so-called good wife and beautiful concubine, Wei Ling's main room is too full and too dignified.
Of course, there is no problem with a woman's dignified appearance, but the problem is that today is a concubine selection room. This kind of concubine room, which is more like the main room than the main room, is not suitable no matter how you look at it.
Thinking back to Princess Cheng Cheng just now, and choosing Wei Ling, could it be that Princess Cheng had planned to give up Cheng Yuanniang? No, that's my niece.
"There are six people in total, what does the prince think?" Princess Cheng looked at Han Xiao and asked.
Han Xiao's voice was flat and said, "It's all good." ”
"Alas......" Princess Cheng sighed softly, looked at Han Xiao, and said guiltily: "I picked the princess for you, my niece, but she is really ...... It's also my fault, I'm too selfish and mistaken for you. ”
Wu was shocked when he heard this, and he could say such a weak word, Princess Cheng is really a person who can achieve great things.
"The princess is serious, and it's also my fault that she didn't treat the princess well." Han Xiao said, his voice was even calmer.
Princess Cheng smiled bitterly: "Your personality is so pampered, no wonder you don't like it." ”
"The princess was born in a famous family, so she is naturally noble." Han Xiao said.
Princess Cheng continued: "Of these twelve people, I see that only Wei Ling has a bit of the demeanor of a master mother, so I chose you as a side concubine." I hope she can help Yuan Niang and take care of the affairs of the back house, which can be regarded as my compensation. ”
"I'm annoying the princess." Han Xiao still said not salty and indifferent, and did not answer at all.
Wu Shi was puzzled when he heard this, what did Princess Cheng mean by saying this?
Cheng Yuanniang is indeed not able to manage things, so Princess Cheng deliberately chose a room-like Wei Ling to replace Cheng Yuanniang.
However, saying it so bluntly is afraid that it will make Han Xiao watch out in advance, but it is not good.
In other words, this is Princess Cheng's strategy, the so-called true and false, false and true, making it difficult to distinguish between the true and the true.
"That's the six." Princess Cheng said, looking at the six people selected, her eyes were gentle, "In the future, you will serve the prince well, be harmonious, and don't make trouble for the prince." ”
"Yes." The six of them spoke in unison.
Princess Cheng said again: "As for the residence, Concubine Wei lives in Linglong Pavilion, and Concubine Shen lives in Pinghu Qiuyue." The other four, don't huddle together with the princess of the county and the princess, and all of them are placed in the back garden. ”
As she spoke, Princess Cheng instructed the chief eunuch again: "Look at the arrangement." ”
"Yes." The great eunuch responded.
The six people who were selected were all happy in their hearts, and even Shen Xiu breathed a sigh of relief.
If you have an independent yard, you don't have to huddle with the main room to see your face, even if the house is smaller, closing the door is also a king.
Only the Wu family was faintly disappointed in his heart. She deliberately chose Wei Yu, who had outstanding colors, in fact, she also thought that if Wei Yu was favored and Han Xiao came to Nuan Xiangwu for her diligence, she would be able to get some light.
Now that they live alone, she can't get any bargains.
"The marriage matter is arranged by Guo Changshi." Princess Cheng said, got up and waved her hand, "That's all for today." ”
Everyone stood up and sent Princess Cheng away.
