[Pen Literature .], wonderful free reading without pop-ups!

"Miss, the nobleman from last time sent something again, this time it is some high-grade old ginseng and tonics. It just so happens that the young lady can go to the ground to move, and it just happens to be able to make up for it. Aunt Liu walked in with a bunch of boxes wrapped in red paper.

Zhuang Rou has been lying on the bed for a full month, and she has been able to walk a few steps with a cane, which is still because of the iron armor skill and internal strength, so she can recover so quickly, otherwise she would have to lie down for another ten days and half a month.

Aunt Liu wanted to speak a little and stopped, and finally couldn't help but say: "Miss, that noble man is a county king, do you have any intentions for Miss?" I sent a lot of things home this month, and I didn't send someone to ask you when you could go back last time, this kind of rich and noble person is in chaos. ”

Zhuang Rou had long felt that she could walk without crutches, but Aunt Liu and her brother did not agree, for fear that she would fall again. Before going out to run errands, Zhuang Xuewen also told Aunt Liu that she must not be allowed to run around.

And he went out to run errands, and it was more than ten days since he left, Zhuang Rou suspected that he was going to deal with the affairs of Batianmen.

Sun Zhiling followed them to the capital, and the next day he got the medicine he wanted, and he didn't have time to say hello to Zhuang Rou, but he just asked Zhuang Xuewen to rush back with a word.

"Aunt Liu, that's a beautiful man, and the girls in the capital like him a lot." Zhuang Rou walked slowly in the courtyard, wanting to regain her freedom as soon as possible, it was too uncomfortable to look like this.

Aunt Liu looked like a person who had come over and said: "Miss, this handsome magnate is even more amazing, his stomach is full of flowers, but he will deceive people." Miss, don't fall for them, the more handsome the worse. ”

Zhuang Rou glanced at her, isn't that brother also a handsome bad man?

finally went home, but was managed like this by Aunt Liu, and this little life of eating, sleeping and sleeping was not so easy.

My brother is not at home, so I am even more bored.

She misses the days in Hongzhou a little, it was called a comfortable one, and now she can't even fight the pig's head at home.

It's been a month since the decree was delivered, and it was said that there would be a reward, but it took so long. Not to mention being promoted to an official or something, he doesn't even have two taels of silver, it seems that this emperor is also poor, and he can't get this reward.

"The emperor is so stingy, if he doesn't reward him, I'm afraid he will forget it." Zhuang Rou muttered, thinking that Chu Xia had sent Yang Qing to urge him twice, he only felt annoyed.

I've never seen such a black-hearted boss, people's bones are broken like this, but I only know that I am in a hurry to call myself back to office work, is this still human?

In the palace, Emperor Zhou Kun was chatting with the empress, but it was about Zhuang Rou.

"Your Majesty, that Zhuang Rou's family background is thin, and she is just a small arrest, so it is unseemly to suddenly make her a county lord." The queen persuaded bitterly.

If it weren't for the Queen Mother looking for her, she wouldn't know that the emperor planned to crown the king of Nahe Yinde County, and there was a woman with bad rumors as the county lord.

Originally, she was just a commoner, and she didn't even have the qualifications to be a concubine for Chu Xia, but if she was crowned the county lord, wouldn't she be a noble girl.

If this is Chu Xia's whim, it is not impossible to marry her as a wife.

The Queen Mother will never let this happen, as long as the woman named Zhuang Rou can't become a noble girl, it is impossible for Chu Xia to take her into the mansion as a concubine.

This county lord is absolutely not, the queen looked at the emperor's face carefully, and she didn't want to have anything to do with the emperor for this.

Seeing that the emperor was not angry, she continued: "Your Majesty, that Zhuang Rou shows up all day long, if she is named a noble girl, I am afraid that she will give other noble girls a bad start, and I feel that I can also go around to show off." ”

Moreover, there is no innocence between her and the little king, and this word is very difficult to hear. Besides, even if the two of them really have something that makes the king of Yindejun really moved, the queen mother will not agree. ”

Zhou Kun didn't think this matter was complicated, Zhuang Rou was Zhuang Xuewen's sister, and he sent back the holy decree that would be taken as a rebellion by the unaccounted emperor uncle, which was a miracle.

Although this merit cannot be made public, several Shangshu also knew about it, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it will be rewarded according to the merit.

Zhuang Rou is a woman, and she can't enter the court as an official, so she wanted to reward some gold, silver and jewelry, but Zhuang Xuewen said with a cold face that these things are not needed at home, don't send people with garbage.

Seeing him like that, he is not satisfied with his use of money to send Zhuang Rou, this is not thinking about it, thinking that it is just right for a woman to get a knighthood.

If she has become a relative, she can still be a lady of a few grades, but she is not married yet, so if she doesn't give it to a county lord, will she give it to the county lord?

I didn't think about it, but the Queen Mother knew about it, but I was worried that Zhuang Rou had become a noble girl, and she was going to marry Chu Xia.

Zhou Kun felt that the queen mother was doing this too much, Chu Xia wanted to stay and marry the princess of another country, and the envoys from several countries nominated the princess to marry him.

Even if Zhuang Rouzhen and Chu Xia were interested, it would be impossible to be concubines, let alone those who were just circulating, how could someone as smart as Chu Xia do such a trouble-seeking thing.

Besides......

He believes that Zhuang Xuewen will not let Zhuang Rou be a concubine, where can people look at this, the Queen Mother really thinks too much, and wants to intervene in everything.

Although Zhou Kun acquiesced that Chu Xia was destined to choose one of those married princesses, he also hated the harem meddling in this matter very much.

But now that the relatives have not been removed, many ministers are still the queen mother's people, so he can only pretend to be obedient.

One day, I will eradicate these stubborn rocks one by one......

Zhou Kun knew that he couldn't show his feet now, and he had to make the Queen Mother still think that he was the incompetent emperor who was filial and weak.

He said: "She is a woman, if she is not the county lord, what kind of reward does the queen think is suitable?" ”

The queen already had the instructions of the queen mother in her heart, and she smiled slightly and said: "The concubine heard that she has already entered the ten, and she is already the age of talking about marriage, and if this drags on, there will be no good people to choose, so why don't you give her a good marriage?" ”

Zhou Kun only felt that his head was big, and he could give any reward, but if he forcibly arranged a marriage for Zhuang Rou, I was afraid that there would be a big mess.

If you can't be an official and you don't want to ask for money, you can't give this marriage, and you can't give a title, so you have to give something to reward!

If he didn't give anything, Zhou Kun felt that he would lose his heart with Chu Xia, but Chu Xia was a flying pigeon and asked for the title of Zhuang Rou three times.

Everyone is a man, how can he hide his little thoughts, isn't he just thinking that if Zhuang Rou has a knighthood, he can use his brain.

Title......

Suddenly, Zhou Kun thought of a reward that would not offend anyone and would satisfy everyone.

He smiled and said, "Don't worry, I know how to reward her." ”

"If you really want to reward a good family affair?" The queen smiled with relief, it seems that she can also explain to the queen mother.

Zhou Kun smiled secretly, "The queen will know when she arrives." ”

The queen was a little surprised, this still has to be hidden?

But after thinking about it, there is a queen mother, and there is no need to offend the emperor, after all, the queen mother still has a day to return.

Zhuang Rou didn't know how long the palace had been fighting for rewarding herself, for her, it was just a holy decree, and it would be good to reward some gold, silver and jewelry.

If there is a bigger Dongzhu and a good jade, I will make some jewelry for my brother, he is now in the palace all day long, and he has to dress up.

Let the concubines in the palace and the nobles outside see how good their brother was born, and what handsome men in their eyes are just ugly men.

Unexpectedly, the next day, the father-in-law of Xiao Yuanzi in the palace came with his will in person.

Zhuang Rou was injured, and took three soft cushions to receive the order, Xiao Yuanzi read there for a long time, and she was at a loss until she was helped up by Aunt Liu after receiving the order.

She took the holy decree and asked inexplicably, "Gonggong Yuan, what is this?" ”

"Congratulations to Miss Zhuang, of course this is the emperor's reward. It's just that this time it can't be made clear, so I rewarded it with grace. In the future, we can't call Miss Zhuang, we have to change the title. ”

Not only Zhuang Rou, but even Aunt Liu and the subordinates in the family are confused, and there is such a grace for women?

"Gonggong Yuan, is this holy decree really given to me, not sent by mistake?" Zhuang Rou asked again in disbelief, is this a mistake.

Gonggong Yuan waved the dust and said seriously: "The holy decree clearly says the word Zhuang Rou, this can't be wrong, anyway, congratulations." ”

Zhuang Rou pursed her lips and said speechlessly: "Gonggong Yuan, I'm a woman!" What's the matter with the emperor sealing me a donkey? Is it possible to marry a princess to me? ”

"Master Horse, this full name is Captain Horse. Although it is generally given to the princess's husband, it is not necessary to marry the princess to be a concubine. Although Zhuang Yuma is a woman, her job is not to be arrested, this is also a public office, and it is normal to be promoted to a dignified and upright lieutenant! Yuan Gonggong said cheekily.

What the hell is the horse master, and there is no princess to marry me, do you play with such a ridiculous official position?

Zhuang Rou asked a little unpleasantly: "Then I will serve in the DPRK in the future, what is the main thing?" ”

Gonggong Yuan smiled and said: "Don't worry, don't worry, although my job is to be a royal horse guard, I am now a knight." You don't need to go to court, you can be idle, but you can enjoy the benefits that ordinary officials can't get. ”

"Although it can't be hereditary, there is also a position when you enter the palace, and you won't be punished casually if you collide with a nobleman. For Zhuang Concubine, this is extremely suitable. ”

Why does it sound so ugly!

Zhuang Rou flattened her mouth and arched her hand: "Thank you Gonggong Yuan for solving your doubts, but can you not call me Zhuang Gongma?" I think the horse master is good. ”

Gonggong Yuan was stunned for a moment, and immediately smiled and said: "Okay, Master Ma, then our family will go back to the palace first." ”

"Father-in-law walks slowly." Zhuang Rou directly grabbed two of the gold ingots rewarded by the emperor and stuffed them into the sleeve of Duke Yuan, which was completely intolerable for him to refuse.

This reward is really ugly, and Gonggong Yuan knew that Zhuang Xuewen had a good relationship with the emperor, so he accepted it with a haha.

Zhuang Rou watched all the people in the palace leave, and threw the holy decree to Aunt Liu, "Aunt Liu, put this away, I really don't understand what the people in the palace are thinking, it's inexplicable." ”

"That's it, let the young lady be the master of the horse, then at least you have to send a princess." Aunt Liu muttered and took the holy decree inside.

Two days later, Chu Xia, who was doing nothing in Hongzhou, squirted out a mouthful of summer soup, "What! The emperor named her the captain of the horse? ”

"Yes, I originally wanted to make her the county lord, but the Queen Mother stopped her." Xiao Ran said.

Chu Xia looked at him for a few breaths, took a handkerchief and wiped his mouth, leaned back on the rocking chair and shook it, "In this case, she will probably be summoned to the palace soon, so that people can keep an eye on it." ”

"Are you afraid that someone in the palace will be unfavorable to her?" Mo Cong asked curiously.

Chu Xia looked at him deeply, "It's not good for her?" I'm afraid that she will beat the nobles in the palace to death! ”

Shi Zang said coldly: "She did it. ”
