But Empress Shu remembered the words of the Empress Dowager Bo, carefully selected the girls of the right age, drew all the people she thought were suitable, wrote resumes, and made brochures, and then inquired carefully about the character and behavior, circled a few that she thought were appropriate, and showed them to the Empress Dowager Bo.

Empress Dowager Bo laughed when she saw these candidates, and said funny: "In the early years, the emperor chose you to be Da Lang's daughter-in-law, and I laughed at him at that time and said, Da Lang is already kind enough, and add a more generous one, I'm afraid the world will listen to that group of ministers."

"Unexpectedly, those people didn't bully your husband much, and they were full of praise for you. It's good that you have this benefit, and you can even choose the most honest little lady for your two sons. Aren't you afraid that your daughter-in-law in the future will be bullied to death by your two smart sons? ”

Belch?

Empress Shu felt as if she didn't understand, and looked at Empress Dowager Bo in a daze, not knowing how to answer.

"Listen well, I'll teach you." Empress Dowager Bo looked at Queen Shu like this and smiled helplessly, so she had to break it and crumple it and analyze it for her one by one.

"Your eldest is a smart kid, isn't he? But whoever picks out is a little less smart, will he dislike people for being stupid?

"Although it is said that it is possible to marry a wife, it is possible to take a concubine. But Da Lang has a high vision. There are all the beauties in the South Xun Palace, have you heard of him being lazy? No! So, if you give him a mediocre little lady, do you think he can see it in his eyes? Just being compared to the little beauties of this Nanxun Palace, your future daughter-in-law will have a hard time.

"Thirdly, Da Lang is the crown prince, the prince is going to pick the crown princess, you don't even choose among these meritorious ministers, what do you mean? Is it to tell people clearly that they want to prevent other relatives from gaining power? In this way, will any of these people in the court really support the crown prince? ”

Empress Shu's forehead was squeezing when she heard this, and her face was pale.

"Therefore, the prince's choice of concubine is a family matter, a palace affair, and a court policy." Empress Dowager Bo sighed and patted her hands, "You have been following me for half your life to enjoy the blessing of not using your brain, and suddenly you are wondering about this, which is indeed a little difficult for you." ”

"Queen Mother, I, I'll go back and take a look at these candidates, pick them again, and then send them to you for seeing." Empress Shu was full of shame.

Empress Dowager Bo smiled and bowed her head: "It's okay." You learn to watch. After all, they were both young and not in a hurry. Let's pick slowly, it's okay. ”

Empress Shu bowed her head and retreated.

Empress Dowager Bo looked at her back and sighed, and shook her head: "This pair of fools, what can I do......

More than a month passed.

Empress Shu quietly mobilized all her cronies, even including her mother's brothers and brothers-in-law, to get to the bottom of the little ladies in the capital. In the end, a list of six people came out, and he took it nervously to find the Empress Dowager Bo.

Empress Dowager Bo saw it, and nodded again and again with a smile on her face: "This time I have grown a lot." These candidates are very much in line with my wishes. ”

After thinking about it, he asked again: "This is all for the prince?" Or is it also for Jiro? ”

Queen Shu hurriedly smiled and said: "The young and the old are orderly, first finish the marriage for the prince, and then talk about Erlang." ”

"That's right. Erlang is a child, and he may not be willing to marry a daughter-in-law so early. The prince is helpless, he is the prince, and getting married is a major matter of first and first urgency. Erlang will let it go first. Empress Dowager Bo hesitated for a moment, nodded, and smiled and asked Empress Shu to directly transfer the list to the emperor.

Empress Shu breathed a sigh of relief, happily reported to the emperor what had happened, and gave him another idea: "The queen mother has always saved face for me, but I am afraid that even if I do something wrong, her old man may not be willing to say it to her face." Why don't you go to Shouchun Palace again and ask her if the old man has any meaning? ”

It's natural.

The emperor smiled and agreed, and the next day he deliberately set aside the whole afternoon to go out to see the Empress Dowager Bo.

"These six people are suitable for Erlang, but the prince is not suitable." Empress Dowager Bo really hid her words and didn't say anything.

The emperor froze: "There is no suitable one?" ”

"Nope." Empress Dowager Bo sighed and asked the emperor, "I heard that Chao Xiang's most precious person is his little granddaughter?" Ten years old? ”

The emperor stammered, nodded subconsciously, shook his head again, and said ashamedly: "I don't know much about this. I often hear that Chao Xiangye likes his granddaughter very much, but which, how old is this year, I haven't inquired in detail. ”

"How can you not know about such a thing?" Empress Dowager Bo scolded lightly, and Fang continued: "Chao Xiang is a veteran of the Three Dynasties, and he is also the talent that Taizu admired the most in his later years, and his appeal to Tianwenlin is not comparable to others.

"I inquired. His little granddaughter, not to mention her beauty, is quite arrogant. Be generous, courteous and courteous. These qualities are enough to be the crown princess now and the queen in the future.

"Of course, the crown prince chooses a concubine, you can't make a decision like this. It is better to let the prince see him. I mean, find a reason in the palace to hold a flower party or something, so that we can all meet these little ladies. It's better to see than to hear. ”

The emperor smiled and nodded: "What the queen mother said is extremely true. He looked at the list in his hand and hesitated: "What about these people?" ”

"Let's all come and play! It's all young girls, now it's more to get together, and in the future, all of them will be the life of a noble lady, maybe which one can help my granddaughter-in-law! ”

Empress Dowager Bo laughed.

The emperor had no choice but to laugh.

The old lady thought far enough......

It just so happened that Queen Shu also wanted to let her daughter be bored, so she simply invited a group of little ladies to come to the palace to play, enjoy peonies, drink apricot blossom wine, and eat peach blossom cake in the name of Princess Gantang.

The emperor, Empress Dowager Bo and Empress Shu looked at the little ladies next to each other, and sure enough, the most outstanding was the little granddaughter of the Chao Xiang family.

When the signs appeared, others were dissatisfied.

Someone muttered: "Chao Xiang is eighty-four, and he won't have to die old in a year or two?" This is choosing a concubine for the crown prince, why do you want to slap him? ”

There are also smart ones who sneered: "The Chao family has stood in the middle of the court for more than 60 years, and the protégés are all over the world. Not to mention that Chao Xiang said goodbye to the old, even if all the people in the Chao family resigned, the girls of the Chao family are still more qualified to enter the East Palace than some people! ”

In front of the Queen Mother and the Emperor and Empress, it is naturally impossible to quarrel.

But this sentence still reached the ears of the three of them, and the Empress Dowager Bo frowned: "It's so snobbish." ”

But the emperor felt that the last girl who spoke was really insightful: "Whose girl is it?" ”

"Tai Guogong's family." Queen Shu replied with a smile, "She looks good, but she has a very hard temperament." I was afraid that she would fight with the prince, so I didn't dare to pick on her......"

"The prince is naturally not suitable. However, Erlang still seems to ...... "The emperor's little abacus crackled."

Empress Dowager Bo opened her mouth and swallowed her words back.

Forget it, as long as the prince can have a good daughter-in-law...... Erlang, let his father and mother go...... I want to talk about "The Legend of the Crazy Concubine" with more like-minded people, pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
