"The painting is indeed a good painting, but Luo Er can't make a judgment." Mingluo replied: "But when I heard Mrs. Chu's words, there are two similarities. ”

Whether it's just two points, she is clear.

But as she said, she should not be "presumptuous".

She didn't look up at the demeanor of the Holy Emperor, but only heard the voice and asked, "It is said that the painting is now hanging in the Dengtai Tower?" ”

"Exactly."

The Holy Emperor seemed to ponder for a moment, but in the end he only said, "That's it." ”

The taut string in Mingluo's heart relaxed.

There are good and bad paintings hanging in Dengtai Building, but fortunately, at least my aunt dispelled the idea of taking the painting back to the palace to see.

At this time, a palace lady entered the palace and said: "Your Majesty, Yu Chang asks to see you." ”

The Emperor of the Holy Book bowed his head and motioned for him to enter.

Mingluo stepped aside, acquiescing that the topic of Chang Suining had been revealed.

Yu Zeng brought a list and presented it after saluting: "...... On it is a list of officials who have recently advocated the election of the crown princess as soon as possible, and I would like to ask Your Majesty to take a look at it. ”

The Holy Book Emperor looked through it, and there was only a look of "sure enough" on his face.

On this list, most of them are officials of the scholar clan, and from a look, the leaders are only Cui, Zheng, Changsun and other surnames.

After the Pei incident, those people did not really retreat, first used the position of the secretary of the Ministry of Rites to contend with her repeatedly, and finally pushed Mrs. Chu out, which was considered to neutralize the matter.

Now, these people have begun to propose the early election of a crown princess for the crown prince......

The crown prince Li Zhi is only thirteen years old, why should the princess be in such a hurry, in the final analysis, he just wants to remind her and all parties that now that the prince has grown up, it is time for her to return to power...... It's just an attempt to use this as a name to achieve their goal of gathering and integrating forces.

The Holy Emperor closed the list, and did not rush to say anything, but only explained some other matters.

Yu Zeng responded one by one.

Ming Luo took the tea he had just exchanged from Gong E's hand, came to the imperial case, and poured hot tea for the Holy Emperor.

The tea soup was poured into the tea cup, and the tea mist was rising, and the Holy Emperor said casually to Yu Zeng: "Before you came, I was talking to Gu'an about the girl of the Chang family. ”

Yu Zeng has been with her for many years, and she occasionally talks to her about topics other than political affairs.

Ming Luo gently put down the teapot and lowered his eyes to guard behind the Holy Book Emperor.

"Your Majesty is talking about the matter of ascending to the Tai Tower yesterday?" Yu Zeng smiled slightly and said, "The slave has also heard of it. ”

"She can afford this poetry meeting, and she can control such an unexpected situation, but she has some skills." The Holy Book of Emperors.

Mingluo's drooping eyelashes moved slightly.

Yu Zeng: "Your Majesty praised it falsely, children like to be lively, it's just luck." ”

The Holy Emperor smiled rarely: "You also treat her as your own child, and you know how to depreciate yourself for her." ”

Then, he asked: "Speaking of which, since this child was brought back by 'Ah Xiao' back then, do you know where it came from?" ”

"According to His Royal Highness, it was just an ordinary poor people, and his parents died early, and seeing that he was lonely and pitiful, His Highness brought it back to Beijing."

The Emperor of the Holy Book bowed his head, and then pondered: "'Ah Xiao' is benevolent, and he also rescued many orphans when he went out to fight, but after saving it, he was placed like this...... But she seems to be the only one. ”

"Yes." Yu Zeng explained: "Most of those orphans were placed in the military camp to learn to do things, but because Sui Ning was the youngest when she was brought back, she was only able to walk for the first time, and because she was a girl, she stayed in the Xuance Mansion. This girl was born pleasing, and she liked to stick to Her Highness on weekdays, and Her Highness also liked her very much, and she took her name personally, and the slave and General Chang took extra care of her. ”

"After that...... His Royal Highness is gone, and before leaving, he told him to take care of her. Yu Zeng's voice paused slightly, and then he said: "The slave and General Chang read His Royal Highness's instructions, and over time they got used to taking this girl with them to protect them...... As time goes by, they will treat it as if they were their own. ”

The Holy Book Emperor seemed to sigh with emotion: "Being able to meet 'Ah Xiao' is her creation." ”

She said, "Let her enter the palace tomorrow, I want to see her." ”

Yu Zeng should be "yes".

A faint hint of sarcasm flashed in Mingluo's eyes.

So she was right, the other party was very lucky.

From beginning to end, it was just because he was a little favored by His Royal Highness the former Crown Prince that he easily got all of this, including the attention of the saint at this time.

……

Because he didn't rest until dawn, Chang Sui Ning made up for sleep during the day, and waited until the evening before going to the martial arts arena.

Xi'er went to see the two little beggars she had brought back last night.

The two of them washed inside and out, combed their hair neatly and wrapped it on the top of their heads, and changed into clean clothes.

Xi'er nodded with satisfaction, then looked at the ragged old clothes that she had changed from the two of them, and said, "The girl said that you should not throw away your original clothes, and you may be able to use them later." ”

The two boys' hearts pounded as they listened.

This is...... If they don't behave well, do you mean throwing them out at any time?

Xi'er didn't know how the two of them were suffering from gains and losses, and said, "Come with me." ”

The two hurriedly followed.

Xi'er took people to the martial arts arena.

Chu Xing had already heard Chang Suining talk about the two of them, and at this time, he glanced at the thin little bodies of the two, and only said, "Just run two laps today." ”

The two children don't know why - is this one of the tests for them?

For fear that they would be thrown out if they ran slowly, the two of them generally ran two laps and quickly returned to Chu Xing and Chang Suining.

"Girl, we're very good at running!"

"Hmmm! If a dog is chasing after you, you can run faster! ”

"I can run the entire Suzaku Street in one go!"

Chu Xing: "......"

There is a foundation.

Looking at the two children who were sweating profusely, their eyes were full of longing to be affirmed, for fear of being abandoned, Chang Sui Ning smiled at them and nodded, "Very good." ”

She called for Ah Che to come over.

"This is Ache, you are the same age. From today on, the two of you will follow Ah Che and come here every morning to practice martial arts, and the rest of the time Ah Che will do whatever you do. ”

The two of them responded in unison and looked at Ah Che obediently.

Ah Che suddenly felt a little nervous - is the girl going to let him bring a new person?

He was very apprehensive in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it on his face, and he met the two lines of sight, trying to make himself look calm and old-fashioned: "What are the names of the two of you?" ”

The two children shook their heads one after another.

The little beggar who has no father, no mother and no one wants has no name, and if he does, it is just a nickname, not a serious name.

Chang Suining is familiar with the road, and understands that this is another part of the test of her ability to choose a name-

"Your name is Littleend."

"Your name is Xiao Wu."

"Good!" Chang Suian, who had just finished practicing a set of knife techniques, wiped his sweat and exclaimed: "Catchy and profound!" ”

Chang Suining: "......"

It's not very deep, is it?

Chang Sui's "I want to take it and use it" demeanor made the two children more and more flattered, and hurriedly knelt down to thank Chang Suining.

After that, he followed Ah Che and left the martial arts arena.

On the way, Ah Che pretended to ask some questions, and seeing that the two answered diligently and well-behaved, Ah Che gradually settled down.

But he soon discovered that being too attentive and well-behaved was not all good.

The two of them implemented the girl's sentence "What Ah Che does, what you do with you" is too precise, and lacks the most basic sense of boundary between people-

"I'm just up all night...... You don't have to do this kind of thing together! ”

It was night, and Ah Che's panicked voice came from the room.

……

In the early morning of the next day, Chang Suining resumed his habit of going to the martial arts arena in the morning.

As soon as she got off the donkey's back and handed the bow in her hand to Xi'er, she heard Azhi come to pass the word, saying that someone had come to the palace and summoned her to the palace by the sage's decree.

Chang Sui Ning paused slightly with a handkerchief to wipe his sweat, but his demeanor did not change: "Well, I'll go back and change my clothes." ”

She was calm and composed, but Xi'er was quite nervous for a while.

This is the first time a girl has entered the palace!

and it was the saint himself who called it......

Xi'er followed her girl back to the courtyard, first bathed and changed clothes, and then combed her hair and dressed.

"Don't be nervous." Chang Suining noticed the little maid's apprehension, and comforted: "Outside the gate of the inner palace, there are palace people who will stop you, you don't have to follow me into the palace to face the saint." ”

The daughter of an official like her, who does not have any titled status, cannot bring her own female envoy into the palace.

Xi'er was stunned when she heard this, this is it.

Immediately, he became more and more worried: "That girl is ...... alone"

Chang Suining interrupted her: "I'm not going to fight." ”

As he spoke, he casually picked up the Nanzhu golden hairpin in front of him and put it on himself, got up and said, "Let's go." ”

After tomorrow, she suddenly wanted to see her, just for the day before yesterday.

But the fault of the Xie family is on the bright side, no matter how the Empress Ming thinks of her in her heart, it is impossible to do anything to her on the surface.

If you are a little "interested" in her because she "imitates" the style of the eldest princess of Chongyue, then there is no need to worry about anything.

Chang Kuo personally sent his daughter out of the house, whispered a reassuring advice, and watched her get into the carriage to the palace.

The carriage and horses did not stop all the way.

Chang Sui Ning stepped off the carriage and raised his eyes to look at the majestic palace city.

Reliving this time, she is destined to be unable to avoid this palace and the queen of the Ming Dynasty - or rather, she chose not to avoid it.

The girl stepped through the palace gate, and the hem of her skirt swept over the vermilion threshold.

Entering the inner palace gate, there is an inner prison waiting there.

The inner eunuch led her to the Manna Palace, and when there was no one on the road, he whispered to her: "Yu Chang asked the slave to remind Chang Niangzi a few words......

Chang Sui Ning walked without squinting: "Father-in-law, please speak." ”

"Chang Niangzi doesn't have to be nervous, when she arrives in front of the saint later, she just needs to bow in a proper manner, talk less, ask less and look less, just answer."

Chang Suining nodded.

"There is also ......" The inner supervisor lowered his voice: "The heat is scorching, and the lady will inevitably be hot and dry all the way, but you need to be calm and calm, don't quarrel with people, and don't easily do anything with people...... Chang Shi said, Si Gongtai has something important today and he can't leave, if you fight with someone, he may not be able to come over in time. ”

Chang Suining: "......"

According to her guess, Ah Zeng's original words may not be so euphemistic.

When she went to the palace, he broke his heart.

The sun was shining, and she walked slowly along the shadows under the palace wall, and saw that the Manna Hall was in front of her.

Do you still have a commuter pass? Otherwise...... How about buying something from my good sister Song of Thorns? "The Chronicles of Song Tan" is fresh and easy to farm, and it is necessary to heal!
