Chapter 248: Selection

The Queen Mother's face looks extremely ordinary, and her round face is a little blessed, but she seems to be more kind. The clothes and crown are all dressed according to the grade of the Queen Mother, and they are not replaced by the light cicada wing crown that has been very popular in Beijing recently because the crown is too heavy, which shows that the Queen Mother is really a person who pays attention to rules.

"How old is this year? What books have you read? The Queen Mother took Sanniang's hand and asked with a smile, looking like an amiable elder.

Sanniang replied respectfully: "If you go back to the Queen Mother, the courtiers will be fifteen years old after the New Year." The courtiers have read the boudoir training, the female precepts, and the rest are some miscellaneous books to pass the time, and they can't be counted. ”

When the Queen Mother heard this, she asked with great interest: "You have even read the harem training?" Saying that, he turned his head and said with Mama Tongchun: "I remember that the girls in Beijing are not all trained now, and some people say that it is out of place." According to the mourning family, what is wrong with this rule? It's just that people's hearts are now impetuous. ”

Mama Chun echoed with a smile: "What the Queen Mother said is, but isn't there a junior who has the same calm temperament as you?" ”

When the Queen Mother heard this, she patted Sanniang's hand affectionately: "No, I just said that as soon as this little girl from the Wang family came in, I saw that I was very in love." Good boy, since you have read the harem training, can you recite a few paragraphs to the mourners? The mourning family's memory is not as good as before, and they have almost forgotten it. ”

Saying that, the Queen Mother stared at Sanniang, although there was a smile in her eyes, but her undoubted look was also obvious at a glance.

Seeing this, Mama Chun next to her glanced at Sanniang with some concern, she was afraid that because of her kind reminder today, Sanniang would be self-defeating. The Queen Mother's temperament is the least fond of pompousness, and she is also very strict with those who tell lies.

Mama Chun was thinking of saying something to divert the Queen Mother's attention. I don't want to Sanniang, but I have already lowered my head slightly and carried it.

Sanniang's voice is not slow or urgent, soft and calm, and reciting the boudoir training word by word gives people an illusion, as if she can do everything she recites.

The smile in the Queen Mother's eyes was even worse. While listening, he patted the back of Sanniang's hand.

When Sanniang finished reciting the entire boudoir training at one time, Mama Chun and the Xue family were relieved, but Sanniang still lowered her eyebrows and was pleasing to the eyes. The appearance of pampering and not being shocked.

The Queen Mother laughed, and asked Sanniang a few allusions mentioned in the boudoir training with great interest, and Sanniang answered them all. The answer is perfect.

"Good! Good! Good! This girl is a good one. The mourning family loves! After the queen mother took the school exam, she said happily to the left and right: "Go and take the book of the boudoir training that the mourning family copied before, and reward it to Sanniang." ”

The Queen Mother's Mobao is extraordinary! Because the queen mother obeyed that a woman is virtuous if she was not talented, she did not pay attention to things such as reading and writing, so there were very few ink treasures that were circulated. Rare is precious, and it can be said that the handwriting of the Queen Mother today is more precious than that of the Emperor and the Emperor.

Now the Queen Mother rewards Sanniang for a book that she copied by herself, and this honor is not something that everyone can get.

Mama Chun glanced at Sanniang and went with a smile.

Sanniang knew that this was the dignity given to her by the Queen Mother. Get up and thank you.

At this time, the inner prison outside sang again: The queen has arrived.

Sanniang just got up, and she couldn't sit down at this time. He stepped back slightly. After the queen came in and saluted the queen mother, she and everyone in the palace greeted the queen with peace.

Wait for the end of the salute. Sanniang also saw the queen's appearance clearly because of her geographical advantage.

The queen's appearance is somewhat similar to the Shen Wei Shen Gongzi that Sanniang just met, but it is slightly inferior to Shen Wei, because both of them have thin lips. And obviously thin lips look better on a man's face than on a woman's face.

"Queen, you came just in time, these are the two girls of Wang Dong's family, you come and take a look." The Queen Mother beckoned the queen to sit next to her, and pointed to Sanniang and Wuniang with a smile.

"No wonder Erchen heard your laughter outside the hall just now, Erchen still thought about what happened to the Queen Mother so happy today, it turned out that he saw the lovely junior." The queen's voice is soft and soothing, giving people a feeling of spring breeze.

The Queen Mother saw that Sanniang was still standing on the side, so she pulled her to sit on the embroidery pier in front of her: "This is Sanniang of the Wang family, the mourning family just took the school exam, which is very satisfactory to the mourning family." ”

When the queen heard this, she also looked at Sanniang, although she was also smiling, but the queen's eyes were scrutinizing, giving people the feeling that she was evaluating the value of a piece of goods. Sanniang secretly pondered the queen's gaze, and her face was still respectful and polite.

The queen looked at Sanniang but was a little strange, she heard her mother say that the two daughters of the Wang Dong family were shy and shy, as if they had never seen the world, but today, this concubine just seemed too regular. And the one who came out was a little nervous when he saw it.

The queen looked at Sanniang and Wuniang for a while, and naturally had a measure in her heart.

The Queen Mother is also very busy every day, and today she summoned the Xue family, the purpose of Sanniang and Wuniang has been achieved, and it is time for the Xue family to retire.

"Xue's family, in the future, take the children into the palace to talk to the mourning family, the mourning family and Sanniang are very close to each other." In the end, the Queen Mother explained Xue Shidao with a smile.

The Xue family responded busily, and took Sanniang and Wuniang out of the Queen Mother's Ci'an Palace.

In the palace of the Queen Mother, only the Queen Mother and the Queen were left at this time.

"What do you think, Queen? Both kids are good. Imperial Physician Jiang has already selected Sanniang for Shao'er, and I see that it is a tight match. What do you think of Wu Niang? But did you pick it for Shen Wei? The Queen Mother still used a silver chisel to pick a special candied fruit entrance, and squinted her eyes slightly.

When the queen heard this, she knew that the queen mother was going to marry Wang Dong's concubine to Xuan Shao, which meant that if she also took a fancy to the daughter of the Wang family, she would have to pick the concubine.

The queen was a little reluctant in her heart, but she knew the temperament of this mother-in-law. It's easy to talk to, but once she's done with the decided, it's stubborn to the end.

The queen smiled: "Originally, it was good for Erchen to look at this Wuniang, but yesterday I heard a rumor, which made Erchen hesitate a little." ”

"Oh? What rumors? The Queen Mother glanced at the candied fruit on the small silver plate, and remembered that she had already eaten the three prescribed by Imperial Doctor Jiang today, so she put down the chisel in her hand and asked her to bring the plate to the queen.

The queen didn't like sweets, but she never shirked when the Queen Mother rewarded her with sweets. Seeing that the candied fruit was put on the small table in front of him by the palace people, he also picked up the silver chisel and inserted a small date entrance.

It wasn't particularly sweet, and the taste was very sweet, but the queen barely held back her nausea. She never thought there was anything delicious about this sweet and greasy thing, and the Queen Mother used to eat two plates a day. In recent years, due to the dissuasion of the doctor, he can only eat three pills a day.

The queen swallowed the dates in her mouth as if swallowing the dates, but her face was normal: "A while ago, Hui Lan of the Wang family of Zhuangjun was stabbed in the face, and it turned out that it was the fifth lady of the Wang family who did it. ”

"Oh?" The Queen Mother looked at the queen in surprise, but she thought that she seemed to have heard of this matter, but because it coincided with the death of the second prince, she didn't pay much attention to this matter, and no one mentioned that matter recently, presumably the Wang family and the Zhuangjun Wangfu had mediated clearly.

"This kid is not as outstanding as her sister, but she is also a well-behaved person, how could she do such a thing?" The Queen Mother frowned in disbelief, the shy and shy girl just now would do something to stab the county lord.

The queen smiled faintly: "You can see it at a glance when you look at people?" When we look good, we may just look good on our faces, but we may not know what kind of face we look at when we turn around. ”

The Queen Mother sighed when she heard this, and nodded: "What the queen said is not unreasonable, since this is the case, then the fifth young lady's temperament should be taken a second look." Shen Wei's family affairs are also sloppy, you should be cautious as a sister, or wait for this year's embroidered girl to enter the palace, and then we will take a good look at each other? There is always the right person to pick out. ”

Seeing that the Queen Mother only mentioned Wu Niang and did not mention San Niang, the Queen Mother knew that the Queen Mother was still satisfied with Wang Dong's concubine, so she frowned. originally thought that she was the daughter of the Wang family, but she was weak, and it was best to marry into the Shen family. The words of the maiden...... The status is a little worse, and since the fifth lady of the Wang family, since she dares to stab the county lord, it can be seen that she is not a worry-free person, and this temperament is a little troublesome.

The queen was a little upset in her heart, and it seemed that this matter still had to be discussed with her father before deciding.

After the queen left, the queen mother got up and walked comfortably: "This Jiang Popi looks at people quite accurately, I don't see many of the three girls of the Wang family, and I know how to advance and retreat and abide by the rules." "In the eyes of the Queen Mother, women are the more disciplined the better, and of course, everyone's demeanor is also essential.

The queen mother picks people from the perspective of her elders, but most men in the world today still don't like women who are too wooden and boring, respectable but not cute, heavy but not amiable.

Therefore, after several generations, the ladies in the family will not be too strict when teaching their daughters, and they will not be too strict with their daughters to not be able to read and write, and they must not smile in the face of men, even if they are their own husbands, and so on...... Therefore, the harem training advocated by the Queen Mother will be considered untimely.

Mama Chun has been by the Queen Mother's side for many years, so she naturally understands the Queen Mother's thoughts, and she also smiled when she heard the words: "Where will the people that the Queen Mother values be bad?" So the slave and maid look, with an elder like you as the gatekeeper, Xuanshao Gongzi is a blessed one. (To be continued)
