On the fourth day of the first month, in the Begonia Courtyard of Yufu, Mrs. Yu came to the Begonia Courtyard with her maid early in the morning, looking at Yu Tang, who had just finished eating, she couldn't help but admonish: "Tang'er, you remember to wear this dress prepared by your mother, this is the mother specially sent the material to the Jinyu Pavilion and invited the best embroidery lady to make it for you, the mother didn't dare to choose those delicate colors for you, this lilac is not ostentatious but also good-looking, you are dressed in the palace is just right, alas, if it is not no way, the mother really can't bear you to enter the palace." ”

"Okay, okay, mother, mother, come and sit here for a while, mother-in-law is thoughtful, just in line with her daughter's mind, her daughter will be very careful when she enters the palace, her father and mother don't have to worry, but her mother is afraid that she is going to be bored, and her daughter doesn't know when she will be able to return home, and the eldest brother and second brother stay in the army all day, and they didn't stay at home for a few days after the New Year.

Mrs. Yu couldn't help but reddened her eyes when she heard this: "Mother's good child, you have to go back to the house early, if you stay in the palace for a day, your mother's heart will not be solid for a day." ”

Yu Tang hurriedly approached and gently wiped away Mrs. Yu's tears with a handkerchief, "Don't worry, don't worry, Tang'er is so smart, she won't let others bully, Tang'er is not at home, why don't you take Bai Xue to the yard, this Bai Xue is very smart, she has learned a lot of words, her mother is boring and can tease it, and there are two brothers, who are always not at home, and her mother is quick to arrange family affairs for them, and find two sisters-in-law to come back and take care of the two of them for her mother." ”

Sure enough, Mrs. Yu was amused by Yu Tang's words, and nodded the tip of Yu Tang's nose: "Hehehe...... You girl, you will make your mother happy, but what you said is not bad, your two brothers have also reached the age when they should find their relatives, and when the time comes, you will definitely choose two sisters-in-law who will satisfy you. ”

"What is it that I am satisfied, it's not that I marry, I must have my brother satisfied, isn't it my mother's ......?"

"You girl, talk nonsense! That's it, I think you must not dare to be so presumptuous in the palace, and go to the palace to learn the rules carefully and sharpen your temperament. ”

"Mother~ Mother's mother, my daughter is worried about this rule, and I hate learning the rules the most."

"When the time comes, listen to Mama's words, my mother will bring you more silver, you can take it with you, you need to do it everywhere in this palace, don't feel sorry for the money, just use it, and when it is used up, send a letter to your mother, and your mother will send it to you."

Yu Tang buried his head in Mrs. Yu's arms and said coquettishly: "Hmm~ Mother, my mother still loves me." ”

"You're my good daughter, who else can you hurt if I don't hurt you, okay, have you thought about which girl you want to take into the palace?"

"Hmm~ Although Hongxing and Qingzhi have grown up with me since childhood, but this time my daughter wants to take Qingzhi and Yushu, but I don't know how to talk to Hongxing, I also want to take Hongxing, but Yushu knows some medical skills and martial arts after all, Qingzhi is sometimes more stable than Hongxing, Hongxing will be reckless when she is in a hurry, and her daughter wants to keep her at home."

"It's not bad for you to think about it this way, but the jade book is familiar with the rules? If Hongxing stays at home, ask her if she is willing to go to the hospital for a while or stay in this Begonia Courtyard, that's it, the girl in your yard is your own decision, just tell your mother when the time comes, your father is about to go down, and your mother has to go back to the main courtyard, you think about it yourself. ”

"Daughter to you."

After speaking, Yu Tang took Mrs. Yu's arm and slowly sent her out of the courtyard gate, and when he turned around and went back to the house, he called Hong Xing into the house.

As soon as she entered the house, Hongxing couldn't help but ask, "Is there something wrong with Miss calling Hongxing?" ”

"Hongxing, you come closer." After saying that, when Hongxing approached, Yu Tang grabbed her hands, "Hongxing, I don't know if you will blame me, but I have already decided to bring Qingzhi and Yushu to the palace draft this time." ”

Hongxing seemed a little at a loss when she heard this, her eyes turned red in an instant, she blinked vigorously a few times and held back her tears and said softly: "Miss, how can I blame you, Hongxing understands, Qingzhi is more secure than me, and can protect you better, Yushu is even more skillful, I have always been a little reckless, I am afraid that I will collide with the nobles when I enter the palace, Miss's arrangement is very good, but I grew up with Miss, and I have not been separated for so many years, I am really a little reluctant, Miss, you have to come back sooner......

After choking and speaking, Hongxing couldn't hold back her tears, Douda's tears fell, and Yu Tang, who was watching, couldn't help shedding tears: "I can't bear Hongxing, Hongxing has to take care of herself in the house, by the way, you want to go to your mother to serve for a while, and your mother can protect you at your mother's place." ”

Hearing that Yu Tang was worried that she was being bullied, Hong Xing couldn't help but smile: "Miss is worried, I am Miss's personal maid, who dares to bully me in this house, Miss is only going out for a short time, I am guarding the small courtyard here, cleaning up the yard, and waiting for Miss to come back." ”

"Hmmm! I will come back soon, if someone really dares to bully you, go to your mother, and she will make decisions for you. ”

"Yes, the slave knows that Miss must protect herself, if Miss comes back with one less hair, I won't be able to spare the two of them."

Yu Tang smiled and rubbed Hongxing's cheeks: "Okay, I must come back completely, Hongxing will help me call them in, and I will also tell them carefully." ”

Hongxing turned around and went out after answering, and after a while, Qingzhi and Yushu walked in, and the two walked to the chaise longue in a little confused, seeing that Yu Tang was squinting and taking a nap, Qingzhi called softly: "Miss, do you have any instructions for calling the two of us here?" ”

Yu Tang then opened his eyes and looked at the two people in front of him, he didn't speak for a while, and when he saw Yu Tang, he only stared at himself and didn't speak, Qingzhi was about to ask again, but Yu Tang opened his mouth: "Qingzhi, Yushu, do you know that I will enter the palace draft the day after tomorrow?" ”

Seeing that the two nodded, Yu Tang continued: "The rules in the palace are that each show girl can bring two maidservants into the palace together, I thought about it carefully and decided that the two of you will go with me." ”

Qingzhi and Yushu both opened their eyes in surprise, Yushu seemed to react to something, and spoke first: "No wonder Sister Hongxing's eyes were red just now, is it sad that Miss Hongxing wants to take me, but the slave maid doesn't understand why Miss is bringing me, it stands to reason that Sister Hongxing should be brought by me." ”

"Yushu, I brought Qingzhi because Qingzhi is more secure than Hongxing, I take you because I know that you are a smart person, and I need your medical skills and martial arts, the palace is full of dangers, I am afraid that Hongxing's character will cause trouble, and I will not be able to protect her at that time."

Yushu nodded: "Miss is thoughtful, it's just that Sister Hongxing is in the house by herself, I'm afraid she will miss Miss." ”

"This is also helpless, but I shouldn't be able to choose either, I hope to go back home sooner, and you can comfort and comfort Hongxing when you go back."

The two said in unison: "Yes, miss." ”

Yu Tang then waved his hand: "Then you can go out, you will also leave the day after tomorrow, and you will also go back to pack up your clothes and soft clothes." ”

When the two went out, Yu Tang lay down on the couch as if he had lost all his strength, slowly closed his eyes, but his mind was disturbed, not knowing what to do next, and not knowing what the outcome of this palace draft would be, and not knowing whether Yu Fu could stand on the same side as the prince, everything was unknown......

———————————————— dividing line———————————————————-

In a blink of an eye, it was the sixth day of the junior high school, Yu Tang walked out of the gate of Yu's mansion accompanied by his family, looking at the carriage of the embroidered girl in the palace outside the door, Yu Tang turned to look at his parents and brothers, very reluctant.

Mother Yu was even more sad and couldn't stop crying: "Tang'er, take care of yourself in the palace, and ask the palace people to send a letter to your mother if you lack anything." ”

"Okay, mother, when my daughter comes back, eldest brother, second brother, when I am not at home, you have to go home more often to accompany your father and mother, and your father should also take care of yourself."

Father Yu nodded and sighed: "Tang'er has grown up, you must be careful in the palace!" ”

The eldest brother Yu Huaizhi also responded with a slight smile: "It's really that my brother is less at home, I don't know that Tang'er is so sensible and considerate now, sister rest assured, the eldest brother and your second brother will come back from time to time to accompany their parents, and it is important for you to protect yourself in the palace." ”

The father-in-law standing next to the carriage saw that the family had said almost the same, so he stepped forward and urged: "Then Miss Yu, let's go, right?" The hour is not early. ”

Mrs. Yu secretly glanced at the personal maid, and saw that the maid stepped forward and quietly stuffed a purse into her father-in-law's hand, "This young lady came from afar to pick up my young lady, my father-in-law has worked hard, and this young lady has to work hard to take care of my father-in-law on the way to the palace." ”

The father-in-law silently put away and replied with a smile: "That's natural, Miss Yu's slave should be taken care of properly, the general and his wife can rest assured, Miss Yu, let's please, you hold the slave's hand?" ”

Yu Tang hurriedly refused: "Don't dare, I'll go up by myself, thank you father-in-law for your kindness." ”

Finally, after glancing back at his family, Yu Tang got into the carriage and opened the window to say goodbye to everyone, and then the carriage began to move, and Yu Tang gradually couldn't see Yu's mansion, so he could only sit down honestly with sadness, and the green branches and jade books on the side distracted Yu Tang's attention with snacks, and the atmosphere in the car relaxed.

The morning sun gradually rose from the horizon, and Yu Tang's carriage gradually merged into the middle of one after another show girl carriages, and the carriages all drove in one direction - the imperial city full of unknowns and desires, the direction of the carriage was the same, but the people in the car had sorrows and joys, and their future fate was unknown......
