The queen didn't think about it, and said directly: "Naturally, it is a woman who is full of elegance and has both ability and political integrity, and she can be cultivated." ”

Xiao Ting smiled lightly, "Then the queen thinks that Miss Xiao has both ability and political integrity?" ”

Without waiting for the queen to speak, she continued: "Since the emperor thinks so highly of Xiao Ting and asks me to be the judge this time, then Xiao Ting will be responsible for the three princes, and must choose a woman with both ability and political integrity for him to be the concubine, otherwise it will not live up to the holy will." ”

"The fourth sister is indeed in her prime, and her virtue is naturally passable, as for her talent!"

Xiao Ting's words were not finished, but everyone already understood what she meant.

Qin, chess, calligraphy and painting are all things that these girls have learned since they were children, so naturally Xiao Mei can't help it

But when it comes to talent, it takes real effort.

The emperor probably thought it was very interesting, so he casually ordered the bachelor of the Hanlin Academy to come up with a question.

I don't know if the bachelor has a grudge against the Xiao family or Xiao Mei, but he was stunned to have a question that Xiao Ting didn't know why.

The final result was that half an hour passed, and Xiao Mei had to retreat humbly, and then fainted.

The emperor didn't blame her, but just glanced at the queen without a trace, and the queen consciously took the blame, and the test items this time were all from her.

And among these so-called tests, the questions have naturally been revealed a long time ago, and those who aspire to become the third princess have already done everything and got the test questions, just going through the motions.

Because of Xiao Ting's trouble, the banquet did not elect a concubine of the three princes until the end.

The emperor was so excited that he left early, only asking the queen to watch and do it, but the queen couldn't see the emperor's meaning, so she had to choose no one at the moment.

After the end, the two little ones wanted to go to the thatched house, so Xiao Ting asked the red spoon to take the two of them there, and she waited by the lotus pond.

A quarter of an hour passed in a flash, and all the ministers and wives quietly glanced at Xiao Ting with strange eyes, and then hurriedly left the palace with the flower butterfly girls, who were becoming scarce.

In summer, the pavilion is built in a patchwork, the pattern is very good, the cool breeze is blowing, it is very comfortable, Xiao Ting sits on the edge of the lotus pond, looking at the pond full of lotus, but there is a desire to doze off.

Just when she was in a half-lost state, Red Spoon hurriedly ran over, and fell when she went up the steps, which showed her eagerness.

Without waiting for Xiao Ting to ask her, the red spoon shouted: "Princess, go and see, Xiao Shizi is fighting with others." ”

Xiao Ting was instantly pleasantly surprised, jumped off the lotus platform, and said happily: "What? It's so fun to fight, let's go, let's go, I'll see. ”

After finishing speaking, he ran down first, and when he saw that the red spoon was still stunned, he turned back and pulled her.

The two hurriedly bypassed the imperial garden and came to a rockery forest, Xiao Ting was confused by the situation in front of them.

Didn't you say that two little ones were fighting with others?

Also, why is her cheap husband and the ninth prince here?

At this moment, Chu Yun was standing behind the Nine Princes, with a look of grievance, but his head was held high, and his expression was stubborn.

Xiao Xin stretched out her hand to block in front of her, confronted a boy opposite, glared at the child angrily, looked up at the Nine Princes, and stopped talking.

Opposite the Nine Princes stood a beautiful and peerless woman, looking at her age, she was only twenty years old.

That is a delicate beauty, in Xiao Ting's eyes, it is the image of a living sister Lin.

The brocade handkerchief in his hand wiped the corners of his eyes, and Shan Feng's eyes contained endless grievances and uneasiness.

The Ninth Prince turned his back to Xiao Ting and couldn't see his expression.

"Father, it's not the son's fault, why do you want me to apologize?"

Xiao Ting approached and heard Chu Yun say this.

The voice was still a little choked, as if he had been wronged endlessly.

Xiao Xin next to him was sharp-eyed, and when he saw Xiao Ting coming, he immediately turned around and ran over angrily, looked up and said with a little face: "Sister, don't blame us, it's him who bullies people." ”

"Well, tell my sister what happened?" Xiao Ting squatted down, picked him up and walked forward.

Xiao Xin's language organization skills are good, and soon Xiao Ting straightened out what happened here.

It turned out that the red spoon took the two of them out to go to the toilet, but when the two came out, they saw that the little boy opposite was taking a fire fold and burning rabbit hair.

Chu Yun was more anxious, so he stepped forward and pushed the little boy to the ground, pushing him to the ground, and he picked up the little rabbit and coaxed him.

How could the little boy be up, he was already older than Chu Yun and them, and it was very embarrassing to be pushed down by the little one, so how could he give up, and start with Chu Yun right away.

The little boy was followed by the guards, and if it weren't for the red spoon to report his name in time, the guards would probably have to move.

Despite this, the two sides fought.

Originally, Chu Yun and the little boy scuffled together, but later Xiao Xin saw that Chu Yun was not his opponent, so he also went up to help, and after the two of them put the other child down, they rode on the ground and beat them.

Xiao Ting had come close at this moment, and didn't pay attention to the Nine Princes and the obviously problematic woman opposite.

Instead, he looked at the kid opposite, who looked like he was seven or eight years old, and he couldn't see any injuries on his body, and his face was scratched one by one like nail prints, and he didn't know if Chu Yun or Xiao Xin did it.

Looking at Chu Yun's body again, there are a lot of footprints, messy clothes, white and tender little face, and some blood stains on his neck, which looks a little pitiful, no wonder Xiao Xin, a good baby, has to help.

Xiao Xin didn't have anything to do with herself.

"Who is this?" The beautiful woman saw that Xiao Ting had a close relationship with these two children, so she looked at the Nine Princes and asked.

The Nine Princes frowned slightly, and before he could say anything, he was interrupted by Xiao Ting.

"Concubine Ben is their sister and mother, what is your relationship with that child?"

Xiao Ting pushed the two children to the side of the red spoon and forced her straight towards her, the smile on her face was not reduced, but there was more coldness in her eyes.

The woman saw that she was imposing, so she looked at the Nine Princes, and it could be seen that the prince did not respond, so she had to look at Xiao Ting again.

"I'm his mother." The pitiful reply looked like Xiao Ting was bullying her.

"That's it!" Xiao Ting raised her eyebrows and smiled, and then said, "Since you apologize like this!" ”
