Chapter 473: I don't know how to converge
"Your Majesty," the father-in-law looked horrified, "rest for a while?" "The emperor has been reading the excerpts for several hours in a row, and he is very tired.
At that time, the emperor stood up suddenly, propped his right fist on top of the fold, sighed and said, "Go to Concubine De's Palace." "Don't dare to stop it, the public and the public ordered the people below to prepare the dragon chariot.
When the night was already dark when she arrived in the palace of Concubine De, the daughter of the gate palace saw that His Majesty was coming, so she hurriedly entered the house to pray. Concubine De, who was just about to rest, was pleasantly surprised, and His Majesty came to her place for two nights in a row!
Ignoring Fan Dai, she walked out of the house with broken steps, "The concubine didn't know that His Majesty was coming, and she missed the welcome, and I hope Your Majesty will forgive her sins!" As he spoke, he knelt on the ground.
Without saying a word, the emperor waved his hand and retreated from everyone, and walked straight towards the table on the right, and the people in the room rushed out, and in a few breaths, there were only two people left in the room.
Concubine De looked at Saint Shang Tieqing's face and couldn't help but wonder, "Your Majesty, but what happened?" Everyone can see that he is displeased, how can Concubine De, who is good at observing words and feelings, not see it.
After a long time, the corners of the emperor's mouth twitched, "It's not this uneasy one!" When I wanted to drop the inkstone next to my hand again, I was stopped by her.
For the sake of her unaware, the emperor slowed down his tone slightly, suppressed the anger in his heart, and told Qi Xiangtian about seeking joy in Baihuayuan. This matter was discovered by the court's internal officials, and there are not many people in the know, but there is no guarantee that this news will not be revealed. Bad things spread thousands of miles, and I am afraid that it will not take long for such things to damage your identity to be known.
The emperor and Concubine De looked at each other, naturally knowing the pros and cons.
"Your Majesty, according to the concubine, he wants to have someone who knows the cold and the hot by his side," Concubine De looked at the emperor who rubbed her eyebrows, "It's better for us to choose a concubine for the crown prince, and he won't linger in the pickled land anymore." After finishing speaking, her eyes lit up, like Qingshan Yuandai's eyebrows slightly bent into a beautiful arc.
After thinking for a long time, the emperor nodded heavily, "That's it." Only then did he stretch his brows and look tired.
In the palace of the king of Ruxian, behind a red curtain with gilt edges and embroidered patterns, leaning on a pair of beautiful people.
"Today, the king's spies came to report that Qi Xiangtian was presumptuous in the Hundred Flowers Garden," Qi Junqing wrapped his arms around Jiang Hejing's waist and said in a deep voice, "It seems that someone has discovered this matter and reported it to my father." "Of course, this is just speculation.
No matter how much he has eyeliner, he can't see everything clearly.
Jiang Youjing tilted his head to look at him in surprise, "What! He has been crowned the crown prince and still doesn't know how to converge? She had also heard that Qi Xiangtian was good to visit Willow Lane, and now it seems that this is really the case.
hugged her tightly, and gently pinched the delicate skin under his hand, Qi Junqing sneered a few words, and did not speak, only stared at her eyes that seemed to be dripping water.
Being stared at like this, she pursed her full little mouth and muttered a few words, and her pink fist smashed on his strong chest muscles, "Look at what, it's not like I haven't seen it." ”
"This king will be glad when he sees you, won't he?" Qi Junqing tapped the tip of her nose and rubbed the hair on her head before refusing to stop. The candlelight flickered, illuminating her palm-sized face more and more delicately, how could he not be happy when he saw it like this?
The two of them had a little more amusement before they stopped, Jiang Hejing blushed and gasped lightly, raised his foot and kicked at the people around him, but he was no match for him, and his outstretched foot was quickly pinched by him.
The itch came from the center of her foot, she was angry and couldn't help laughing, and finally fell into Qi Junqing's arms, "No, let go of me!" And then he really let go.
Looking at the person lying on her stomach softly in her arms, Qi Junqing couldn't help laughing, brushing the sweat from her forehead with a handkerchief, and the two of them didn't stop fighting until now.
"Actually, I don't think the prince is worse than Prince Xin," Jiang Hejing lay on his chest, touching the stubble on the side of his mouth in his hand, "Why doesn't the prince fight for it, according to the concubine, the prince can also sit in that position." He pouted again as he spoke.
Qi Junqing pondered for a long time, then looked down at her, his hand involuntarily covered the two pink lips, teased for a moment and then leaned his mouth over, so that his mouth was full of honey.
The double candles burned most of the time, and the spring color behind the red tent was sultry, and there were countless beautiful scenery.
……
The next day, she stayed with her waist on her back, her legs couldn't stop trembling, Xi'er entered the house with a pale face, and brought the water in, "Princess, the prince went out early in the morning, and he didn't forget to ask the slave to rub your body today." After saying that, the girl sneered again.
Jiang Hejing was embarrassed, he couldn't help but have thoughts, and went for a walk in the courtyard after breakfast, Qi Junqing didn't know what he was busy with these days, and he usually disappeared early in the morning.
After another two days, the women of the city went to the market to buy flour, rouge and lipstick, and the daughters of large families had already gone to the famous silk village to customize clothes. Why? It's just because His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is going to choose a concubine!
Jiang Hejing, who heard the news, was stunned for a moment, and then immediately understood the mystery, at noon this day, just about to go out of the house for a walk, he saw Xi'er hurriedly entering the hospital, "Princess, Miss Jiang Er is here." ”
"Do you know what's going on?" She hung her eyebrows and glanced out suspiciously. If she didn't want to see her, she could have asked Xi'er to reject Jiang Xian, but now she was a little more curious in her heart, and naturally wanted to go to the meeting.
"That's it, bring her in." Jiang Yojing turned back into the house and sat on a pear wood chair. Xi'er summoned someone to bring Miss Jiang Er in, and then retreated to the pillar and stood quietly.
After saluting, Jiang Xian sat down with her head down, her eyes were very attentive, "Is it okay for the princess to come in?" The sound was warm and glutinous, causing goosebumps to arise.
"This concubine is very safe." Jiang Hejing replied without changing his face, secretly wondering how Jiang Xian could be so decent today, and he was not so obedient and polite on weekdays.
Doubts are doubts, she still nodded and motioned for her subordinates to prepare tea. is also a sister-in-law, if she doesn't stay good, it seems that she is a princess and a child.
"My sister came today to ask the princess for a favor," Jiang Xian squeezed the veil tightly, and then covered it to her mouth, "Recently, I heard that Prince Xin is going to choose a concubine, and my sister is thinking about whether she can use the light of the princess and the princess to ......" After that, her voice was like a mosquito, but looking at her cheeks were red, and her face was embarrassed, what else was there to Jiang Youjing that was unclear?
"Sister, is this in love with Prince Xin?" Without looking back on the taboo, Jiang Youjing asked generously.
Jiang Xian was even more shy not to turn her head, "My sister just wants to try it and see if she can be lucky enough to enter the eyes of the prince." With that, he shyly pinched his veil.
"As far as the slave maid knows, the women who can participate in the selection of concubines are all concubines...... "It was Shi Hongmei who served tea, pretending to want to say something and stopping, and sneered coldly in her heart that this Miss Jiang Er is really shameless, she is just a concubine, and she wants to marry into the emperor's family, which is ridiculous!
Hearing this, Jiang Xian clenched her fists.
"This concubine will think about one or two." After a while, Jiang and Jing replied softly, with no emotion on their faces.
After saying this, Jiang Xian left satisfied, and as soon as she arrived at the main hall of Jiang Mansion, she kicked over the wooden shelves where the green plants were placed. I didn't expect that the big girl in Ruxian Wangfu was really powerful, and the two of them choked to death with one sentence.
What does it mean that "all the women who can participate in the selection of concubines are concubines", which is not clear about slapping her in the face?
Thinking of this, she raised her foot again, but was stopped by the second aunt who was walking quickly, "What are you doing, Jiang Youjing agreed?" Seeing that her daughter was silent, she naturally guessed the result.
"She said that she would consider it, but the people in the house were too much, and they even sarcastically ridiculed me as a concubine and I was not qualified to participate in the selection of concubines!" Jiang Xian was angry, and her tone of voice was inevitably a little rushed.
Second Aunt Jiang also understood this, so she persuaded her, "Don't be angry with a maid, your body matters." ”
The two were still muttering, Jiang Jing entered the house, and when she raised her eyes, she saw that the mother and daughter seemed to be discussing something, and she wondered in her heart, "It's a good day today, why don't you go out for a walk?" Ignoring the strange glances of the two, he sat down on the pear wood chair.
The second aunt's eyes lit up, and she smiled and said to Jiang Jing: "Master, as the day of Prince Xin's selection of concubines is approaching, our daughters are all extraordinary in appearance and quality, so it's not good to miss this opportunity!" She beckoned to Jiang Xian. Jiang Xian, who understood it, hurriedly took a few steps forward, greeted her with a smile, and was very grateful to her mother in her heart.
Jiang Jing squinted at the mother and daughter, and thought of Jiang Youjing in her heart, "Well, my Jiang family has already produced a princess, and it is really inappropriate to have another one now, there is no need to discuss this matter further, she is not suitable to enter the palace." He tapped his index finger on the tabletop, and "she" naturally referred to Jiang Xian.
In the blink of an eye, the second aunt's face was as ugly as a layer of dust, and Jiang Xian was not much better, she turned around and trotted back to the house in disappointment, full of grievances welled up in her heart, Daddy was so biased towards Jiang and Jing!
On the other side, Qi Xiangtian personally went to the Ruxian Palace, and gave an invitation to Qi Junqing and his wife.
"Please also ask King Ruxian and the princess not to be surprised, they must come then." Qi Xiangtian blew the tea on his hand, his eyes were pleasant, and he completely forgot about the Baihuayuan a few days ago.
Qi Junqing bowed slightly, but did not speak.
Seeing this, Jiang Youjing couldn't help but smile awkwardly, "Congratulations to His Royal Highness the Prince, I hope you will find a lover to spend your life with in this concubine selection, and the prince and I will go at that time." Suddenly, he looked at Qi Junqing. Seeing that the man's eyes were dark and deep, his thin lips were pursed, and his eyebrows were slightly frowned, she smiled and closed her mouth.
On the day of the selection of concubines, the women in the city were dressed up, in order to win the attention of the prince. Even if you can't get into the eyes of the prince, maybe you can get the favor of dignitaries.
The selection of the crown prince is divided into three links, the first two links are compared with conduct and appearance, and the last link is compared with talent or talent, that is, compared with poetry and songs, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, dance and music, etc. The women who can reach the third link are not only good-looking, but also dignified and beautiful, and their temperament is better than ordinary people.
After the prince, the prince and the people of status were seated, the father-in-law called the waiting women to line up one by one. Because it is the prince's selection of concubines, the requirements are not as strict as those in the palace, as long as the prince likes it, other aspects are not so strict.
