After Xiao Qixing returned to the palace, he drafted a holy decree and promulgated it to choose concubines for the crown prince and the prince who had reached the age of sixteen. For a while, the government and the opposition were ready to move, and all the ministers who had daughters of the right age to be married in the family were looking for painters to paint portraits of their daughters and sisters.

You must know that the current crown princess will be the future queen, even if she is not favored by the prince, being a side concubine and concubine is also a noble status, no matter how bad it is to be allowed to other princes, she will also be a princess in the future, and it will be helpful to the clan family.

Since it is the marriage of the princes, the queen mother is old and should not work. The concubine is in charge of the harem affairs, so she naturally has to handle it herself. Find someone and calculate the date, and set it for the fifteenth day of the next month. During the period, all the nobles who meet the requirements can send the portrait and the birth date to the palace together, and the person will record it into a book, which is convenient for the queen mother and the emperor to read.

The busy days passed quickly, and Xiao Yichen had already taken the antidote after poisoning himself, but he just cooperated with the medicine prescribed by the imperial doctor to recover. Seeing that the time was about the same, Xiao Yichen let himself "recover", and the hospital collectively breathed a sigh of relief.

The queen mother was very happy about choosing a concubine for Xiao Yichen, seeing that her Chen'er was already eighteen, not to mention the heirs under her knees, even the prince's mansion did not have a woman in charge, as the emperor's grandmother, she was naturally worried. The concubine herself has a prince, and the degree of concern about Chen'er's affairs can be imagined, the queen mother is always worried, and because she rarely deals with those noble women, she has no bottom in her heart, so she is afraid that if she chooses a woman with bad character for Chen'er, won't it hurt Chen'er, think about it, or discuss it with Fu Qingyu.

Because the eunuch sent by the Queen Mother said that the Queen Mother had something to ask, Fu Qingyu didn't bring Jingyi when she entered the palace, and let her stay in the Hou Mansion by herself.

"Qingyu to meet the Queen Mother." Ying Ying bowed, and before Fu Qingyu could finish the salute, he was personally helped up by the Queen Mother.

"What are you doing with me so politely, all these red tapes in the palace are for others, and there is no need to do this when there are no outsiders between our mothers."

Fu Qingyu's heart was warm, and he responded, and sat with the Queen Mother with his backhand, and then asked: "I don't know what the Queen Mother called Qingyu?" ”

The Queen Mother was a little worried, took Fu Qingyu's hand and said: "No, the emperor wants to choose a concubine for Chen'er, this matter will be handed over to the concubine, you also know Chen'er's situation in the palace, I am worried that the concubine is not careful." ”

"Even if the concubine wants to secretly make a stumbling block, isn't this still with you and the emperor? The selected woman must go through the hands of you and the emperor before the candidate can be decided. "Although I don't understand the process of choosing a concubine for the prince, I can imagine that there is no final decision for the noble concubine, as long as the queen mother and the emperor check it well, I believe that Chen'er will have a good marriage, at least the family will help Chen'er ascend the throne.

"That being said, I'm relieved. Chen'er's crown princess is different from the past, and the national teacher once said that he must find a woman with a phoenix life as the crown princess, so that he can be good to Chen'er and Da Wei. "The Queen Mother told Fu Qingyu about the divination of the national teacher after begging for rain that year.

The ghost and god said, Fu Qingyu didn't believe it or say anything, after all, it was related to the fortune of the Great Wei Dynasty, but he asked suspiciously: "What is the daughter of the phoenix?" ”

The Queen Mother sighed: "I don't know, the national teacher only said a birthday back then, I remember that it was a girl born on the sixth day of June in the year of Gengwu, what is considered a phoenix life, no one knows." ”

Hearing this birthday, Fu Qingyu's heart sank, she talked to the Queen Mother when she entered the palace for the first time, and asked about Jingyi's age, and said that she was born on the sixth day of June in the year of Gengwu, including Huo Ting. This......

She didn't know there was such a statement at the time, so she didn't deliberately hide Jingyi's birthday.

As soon as I thought of this, I heard the Queen Mother say: "Hey? Speaking of which, you once said that Jingyi seems to have been born on the sixth day of June, which is really a coincidence, but unfortunately Jingyi is a man, if it is a woman, it can be said that it is really good. The Queen Mother smiled and patted the back of Fu Qingyu's hand, and her regret was beyond words.

"Yes......" catering to the Queen Mother, Fu Qingyu was worried, and what did she say next with the Queen Mother, Fu Qingyu couldn't remember clearly, and when she came back to her senses, she had already returned to the Hou Mansion with her subordinates.

"Mother, you're back! Look, there are a lot of new fish in this lake, all fat and big, waiting for me to catch them and roast them. Jing Yi pulled his trouser legs and cuffs, standing by the lake to catch fish, the red-tailed carp inside was fat and strong, and was scurrying around in panic because of Jing Yi's claws.

Looking at the carefree and laughing Jingyi, Fu Qingyu's heart was even heavier, her Jingyi should be like this, if her daughter was discovered, she would inevitably participate in the selection of the crown princess, just because of a birthday, she would die in the royal family, which was really sad.

So many big families are gearing up, eager to send their daughters to the royal family and become a person of honorable status, but that position, to her Fu Qingyu, is not a fart. What a proud woman the first queen was, in the end, she was besieged in the harem, and she had to see her husband's other women every day, not only that, but she also had to generously persuade the emperor to be wet with rain and dew, and she couldn't be jealous and jealous.

The world is originally unfair to women, and the queen is the most difficult identity for women, the wife of an ordinary rich and noble family can take care of the concubine room in a dignified manner, and the concubine is bought and sold, not to mention selling, even if she is killed, no one dares to say half a word.

But the queen can't, the queen wants to be a mother in the world, and she wants to be a role model for women. Jealousy and resentment are not advisable, only by suppressing oneself and thinking about the emperor everywhere is competent.

She couldn't bear to live like this in the future, no matter how good Xiao Yichen was, she couldn't offset the suffering that Jingyi would suffer in the future. The tricks in the palace, how can Jingyi's temperament stand it, not to mention those methods of pickling the yin, it is impossible to prevent it, even if Jingyi is strong in martial arts, what if he can use medical drugs, no emperor likes his wife so powerful, and he can threaten his life at any time.

The high palace wall is both a right and a prison. She shouldn't have lived like that, and she can't live like that!

Seeing Jing Yi smiling brightly in the sun, Fu Qingyu couldn't bear to interrupt her, she just made a few big fish she caught, grilled two, and cut the remaining one into fillets, seasoned with chili peppers and other seasonings, and made a spicy taste, Jing Yi's cheeks were bulging.

"Jingyi, my mother has something to tell you." After eating and drinking, Fu Qingyu pulled Jingyi to speak.

"Okay." Jingyi sat next to Fu Qingyu obediently and handed her the freshly brewed tea.

"You also know about Chen'er's choice of concubine, and my mother only asks you to guarantee one thing. In any case, you must not let anyone know that you are a daughter, you can do it? "Never more stern, Fu Qingyu looked directly at Jingyi's eyes.
