Chapter 271: Choosing a Concubine

Since entering the palace, in addition to Your Majesty, the only one who is really good to herself is this simple little princess.

Concubine Qiong settled down and returned to the palace.

The emperor said, "You are also not optimistic about Yining and Twilight Tianshen?"

Concubine Qiong knew that although Her Majesty seemed to support Yining, in fact, most of it was her own selfishness, but she didn't show it, she just said, "It's not all the way, if you get together, it will only be a woman who will suffer at that time." ”

For example, she herself, because her background is too low, even if she is favored by His Majesty, she still can't get the respect of others from the heart, although Yining is tall, if she listens to Your Majesty and uses means to marry Du Tianshen, a man like that will never accept her.

The emperor listened thoughtfully, and Concubine Qiong no longer dwelled on the matter.

"The princess is young, and she chooses slowly, His Royal Highness King Ling and His Royal Highness King Duan do not have concubines yet, and the princes are indifferent, so it is better to help the princes choose concubines first. ”

The emperor thought about it, too, there is only the eldest grandson of the emperor in the palace of King Ye, there is a small lord in the palace of King Ling, King Jun has no heirs, and King Duan has not married a concubine, if it is not for Concubine Qiong's reminder, the children's major affairs have been forgotten.

"Or you are careful, they don't know how to mention it, then Zhang Luo Zhang Luo, first choose a step-princess for King Ling, King Duan will also marry the concubine first, King Jun has no heirs, pick a side concubine for him, choose two concubines, the matter of heirs is very important. ”

Concubine Qiong said, "Then Your Majesty will personally issue an order and let the queen mother prepare." ”

The emperor thought for a while, "Motherhood, naturally selfish, she has a heart on the king of Ling, she can't take care of others, now Concubine Nan has also been sealed, let her assist the queen to do it, these things are too cumbersome, you just accompany me." ”

"That's right, the concubine is lazy. ”

"Just after the birthday feast, so that all kinds of feasts don't get together and get in a hurry. ”

Concubine Qiong said, "It's so good, let everyone get ready." ”

The holy decree was soon sent to the queen's palace, and the emperor remembered to choose a concubine for King Ling, and the queen was still very happy, but she had to take the other two, and Concubine Nan also intervened.

Seeing that the queen was displeased, the henchman persuaded, "Your Majesty is also afraid that the queen will be too tired to choose concubines for the three princes alone, and Concubine Nan is also an old man, but she has this qualification, so Concubine Qiong is favored, isn't she also qualified." ”

The queen rubbed her eyebrows with a headache, "It's right, think too much, it's just yourself who is tired, but fortunately, Yining put it aside in advance." ”

"It's better to push the matter of King Duan to Concubine Nan, and Niangniang should choose a concubine for His Royal Highness King Ling, His Royal Highness has only one county lord under his knees, which is too thin. ”

The queen said, "Your Majesty is afraid that I will only care about King Ling, so I sent a southern concubine, if this palace treats them like this, wouldn't it be a matter of words, this palace would rather be tired and endure some, and I can't drag down King Ling." ”

"Just, your body. ”

"It's just that there is no mistake on the surface, but they are just two ordinary princes, so you don't have to worry too much. ”

The henchman said cautiously, "King Najun." ”

"What about King Jun, if His Majesty doesn't speak for a day, he is not qualified, but he just chooses a concubine for him and gives him a few side concubines. ”

"Niangniang, since Concubine Nan has also received this decree, let's pick one for King Jun according to his qualifications to pick a concubine. ”

The queen's hand is stunned, this is a good idea, as long as the time comes, as long as it is arranged slightly, saying that this is the meaning of Concubine Nan, then King Jun will be regarded as a pampered and proud, even if His Majesty does not dispose of it, send a side concubine to his mansion who is similar to the main concubine, and his mansion will not be stable.

"That's a good idea, reward. ”

"Thank you, Queen. ”

The queen raised her hand and asked her to go down, thinking about it alone, dealing with other people this time is only secondary, and choosing a good concubine for King Ling is the most important, I don't know if King Ling himself likes it.

Yi Ning went to the post house full of worries, and the eldest princess was drinking tea with Nan Qi.

After greeting each other, the eldest princess invited her to sit down.

Seeing that she was listless, the eldest princess asked, "What's the matter?

Yi Ning thought of her identity, thinking that she wouldn't talk nonsense to others, glanced at Nan Qi, and still said, "I have something I like very much, but he doesn't belong to me, should I use my identity and status to snatch him over?"

Although the eldest princess didn't know what she was talking about, she was obviously very confused now, so she said, "An ordinary thing, as a princess, as long as you beckon, someone will send it to you,

But you can take away things, you can't take away the meaning of things, you are still young, you have parents and brothers to take care of, but as a princess, in addition to dignity, there is still a responsibility on your body, you will one day find that people must learn to restrain themselves. ”

Yi Ning said, "I don't understand, but I know that the eldest princess must be very hard, so I won't bother you with these things." ”

"Not really, I'm an older sister, I have to learn to protect my younger brother since I was a child, and I never dared to be too willful, and now even if I am above 10,000 people alone, I still don't dare to indulge. ”

Nan Qi hurriedly said, "The scenery outside is just right, let's not talk here, Yining, you don't go out of the palace on weekdays, I'll take you to have a fun today." ”

Yi Ning cheered up, "Okay, what's the best place to go, you are not allowed to hide your secrets." ”

Nan Qi said, "A good opportunity to please the beauties, how can I hide my secrets." ”

The eldest princess and Yining rode in the same car.

"Eldest princess, what do you think of Nan Qi?"

"Nan Shizi is well-read, elegant, knowledgeable, and has the style of a family, and is a beautiful son. ”

When Yi Ning heard this, he patted his chest, "That's good, it seems that the eldest princess still doesn't hate him, and having him with you is not a slack." ”

The eldest princess smiled, "Although I am a guest, I don't need to be accompanied every day. ”

"Anyway, Nan Qi is also idle in Beijing, and it is good to accompany the beautiful woman of the eldest princess, so he is cheaper. ”

The eldest princess lifted the curtain, looked at Nan Qi, who was riding a horse to protect the side of the carriage, and said in a low voice, "It's just a pity." ”

"What a pity?"

It's a pity that as the son of a general, he was seriously injured, his martial arts were all lost, and half of his spirit was lost.

"Such a talented person can only stay in Beijing to watch the flowers. ”

Yi Ning also sighed and said, "Brother Ye, they also admire him, but because of his identity, they can only give him an idle position, and the King of Yunnan is leading the troops outside, and he can only stay." ”

"The princess is really ice and snow smart. ”

"It's a pity that no one can help him, maybe he will have to stay here forever. ”

Nan Qi naturally didn't know that the two girls felt sorry for him very much, but he had accepted his life, since he couldn't change it, just be yourself, there would always be a chance.

The group went out of the city and went to an annex, which was very large and had a flat area behind it.

Looking at the plaque, it should be the courtyard of Nanqi's house.

Although the houses are exquisite, they are not very remarkable in this suburb of Beijing.

But since Nanqi has boasted about Haikou, it won't be so simple.

After a few turns with everyone, a stone path led to the plain behind the courtyard.

Walking through the lush locust forest, the eyes suddenly open up.

What was blocked by the other courtyard was a thousand purples and thousands of reds.

It's July, when the flowers are blooming, the breeze brings the fragrance of jasmine, and the more purple crape myrtle in front of you.

It's really a sea of flowers, I don't want the exquisite bonsai placed in the palace, but a bustling and lively one.

The oleander on the side of the road is also in full bloom.

The sea of flowers stretched far to the foot of the mountain.

The two girls naturally like it very much, those people like vassal elegance, like the so-called delicate things, once they see such an unadorned natural beauty, they are naturally shocked.

The two of them lingered here for a long time, sat down under the flower stand built by wisteria, and someone hurriedly brought the seasonal flower tea.

Yining's eyes are still lingering in the sea of flowers.

Yi Ning said, "I didn't expect you to have such thoughts, it's really good to be a little idle, are you going to please that girl." ”

Nan Qi glared at her, "What do you think, I didn't get it, it was my rough father who asked him to plant it for my mother, I was afraid that others would come to see it every day, and I specially built a courtyard to block it, just for my mother." ”

The eldest princess said with a smile, "The so-called iron man is tender, the king of Yunnan is brave and good at fighting, I didn't expect to please his wife, and he also had such thoughts." ”

Nanqi said, "It's a pity that my mother only watched one season, they went to the border, these mountains, peach blossoms in spring, peony crape myrtle in summer, golden chrysanthemum in autumn, red plum in winter, flowers bloom in all seasons, but still can't wait for its owner." ”

The eldest princess persuaded, "Peace is the most important thing, and if there is Nan Shizi to appreciate it for Lingtang, it will not live up to this thousand purples and thousands of reds." ”

Nanqi said, "Also, this season, crape myrtle blooms best, we passed through the crape myrtle forest, to the foot of the mountain, there is a lotus pond, you can boat, the peach on the hillside should also be ripe, it is worth seeing." ”

Yi Ning said, "So far, has the eldest princess gone?"

Nan Qi said, "The eldest princess can ride a horse, why don't you let them lead the horse, and we will ride over." ”

The eldest princess said, "It's okay." ”

Nan Qi called someone to instruct, "Go and lead the horses, find two docile mares, and make some fresh snacks for the occasion, and send them to the lake, and the fruit wine in the wine cellar, and open two jars." ”

The eldest princess smiled, "The prince is thoughtful,"

With this beautiful scenery, several people should put aside their own hearts and swim.

The news that His Majesty was going to choose concubines for several His Highnesses came out of the palace.

Jingli is boiling again, looking at His Majesty's posture, he will not only choose a few concubines, the heirs of all the princes are thin, this time it must be a big election.

Many families were moved, and letters spread to all states and counties.

Although some people's identities are not enough to be concubines, as long as they climb up to the palace, the benefits will naturally be endless.

The queen is looking at the roster of the best daughters in the capital, and if she wants to choose, she must choose the best.

I just watched a few, and someone from outside came in to report, "Niangniang, Concubine Nan is here to ask for peace." ”

The queen looked at the roster in her hand and said, "Please let her in." ”

"The concubine has seen the queen's mother. ”

The queen said, "You came just in time, I am worried about Your Majesty's will, King Jun has no children, you have to choose for him." ”

"Niangniang is serious, the concubines are just a start, and King Jun is just choosing a side concubine, so you don't have to pay too much attention to it. ”
