Chapter 26: The Palace Selection

Wen Yue directly gave her hand stove to Wen Xun'er, and pulled her up and down to take a closer look: "Look at this little white face!" Auntie has a new cloak from Jiang Guo here, it's so warm, you take it back, don't leave it! ”

After that, someone brought the cloak, and the cloak was wrapped around her body, all mink fur, and it was extremely warm, and her hands, which had been frozen all the way, were warm!

Although I knew that this concubine loved this niece very much, I didn't expect that this love would soon surpass that of mother and daughter!

She was flattered and responded: "Thank you, auntie! ”

Concubine Yue looked at her: "Why haven't you seen each other for a few months?" Sit down! ”

The three of them chatted for a while, this concubine Yue is a standard beauty embryo, speaking of which, Wen Xun'er's face is a little like her, but this concubine Yue has a beautiful face, coquettish but not charming, with her own three points of style, no wonder she has been in the palace for more than ten years!

"I've heard about yesterday's incident, as long as Xun'er is fine, as for those who chew their tongues outside, see if my aunt doesn't tear their mouths!"

Xu sighed: "Now the problem is not outside, but at home!" Your brother listened to the rumors outside, and he had to marry Xun'er to Xiao Jiwei, you also know that your brother's temperament is stubborn, and he can't pull ten cows, if this Xun'er marries Xiao Jiwei, won't the rest of his life be ruined? ”

"What? Brother wants to marry Xun'er to that illegitimate child? When Concubine Yue heard this, she was even more angry than her, "I can't figure it out, what is the charm of this Xiao Jiwei, it is worth my brother that even his own daughter is willing to marry him!" ”

"Xun'er, don't worry, my aunt will make the decision for you in this matter, it's a big deal, I'll go and ask the emperor for a marriage decree! When the time comes, I will see how my brother will influence your marriage! ”

Wen Xun'er breathed a sigh of relief: "But auntie, there is no need for the holy decree, right now I have thought of a foolproof plan with my mother, that is, let Xiao Jiwei come to Xiao Yun as a companion, and with Taixue to restrain him, it will also allow me to successfully participate in the palace election, and when the time comes, it will be too late for my father to influence my marriage, and my aunt will not have conflicts with my father!" ”

"Xiao Jiwei is reading to Xiao Yun as a companion?" Concubine Yue twisted her eyebrows, "Although I have only seen Xiao Ji Wei a few times, but that child is very gloomy, I don't worry about handing Xiao Yun into his hands!" ”

"Auntie!" Wen Xun'er squatted down and held Concubine Yue's knees, "You also know that I have a dangerous holiday with Xiao Ji, if he is allowed to be his companion, this is his only chance to leave the Wen family, and he will never do anything that is unfavorable to Xiao Yun and destroys his future!" ”

"I've thought about it seriously!" Xu said, "Our Wen family was born in bandits, and there is no child who likes to read, but this Xiao Jiwei has always liked to read, and I don't know how many times I just caught him go to the study, if he is allowed to be Xiao Yun's companion, it may not be a good thing!" ”

"And I talked to him, as long as he is a good companion and finishes the palace election, he can make his father retract his mind to let me marry him, aunt, just a few months, Xun'er's happiness in the second half of his life depends on you!"

"Okay, okay, get up, it's just a few months of companionship, I don't expect him to dare to move other crooked thoughts!"

"So my aunt agreed?" Wen Xun'er immediately stood up and made a face full of joy.

"You rarely ask your aunt to do something, just such a thing, can your aunt do it for you? But as a condition, you have to finish lunch today and go back, so let's talk to my aunt and nephew!" ”

"Order!" Wen Xun'er looked at Xu, and Xu finally smiled reassuringly.

When she finished lunch, Concubine Yue asked her to pack a lot of food for her: "The chef of my Yuehua Palace is specially invited by the emperor to our Jiangling people, and the Jiangling dim sum made is particularly authentic, I think you should like it, bring more dim sum back!" ”

"Thank you, auntie!"

"Thanks for what!" Concubine Yue didn't know what she thought, and pulled Wen Xun'er aside, "But there is something about the palace election, have you thought clearly?" On the side of the Nine Emperors, there are several alternatives, and our Wen family is the most uncertain one, so you can't consider other princes? For example, the Seven Princes, or the Ten Princes! ”

Wen Xun'er smiled shyly: "If I say, I don't want to choose a prince, can my aunt?" ”

"Don't want to choose a prince?" Concubine Yue was surprised, "Didn't you focus on the Nine Emperor Princes before?" How? Did he do anything that didn't suit you? ”

"It's not!" Wen Xun'er sighed, "There are many disputes among the royal heirs, so I want to live more comfortably, and it is better to choose anyone than the royal family!" ”

Concubine Yue looked at her in surprise: "You can actually think of this layer, it seems that you have really grown up!" Yes, since I entered the palace, I have been from this cage bird, even if the emperor loves me again, I can't live a happy and free life, like I used to be in Chongle Mountain, hunting pheasants, catching fish, digging birds' nests is not a matter of hand-to-hand, but in this palace, everything is restricted, and everything must be reminded to pay attention to words! ”

"Auntie, you're suffering!" Wen Xun'er held her hand, a place like the palace, once you come in, it is impossible to get out, and it is normal for Concubine Yue, who is free and easy by nature, to be imprisoned in this cage.

It's no wonder that she dotes on her niece so much, no matter how nonsense her niece is outside, she carries it for her niece, I'm afraid it's also for Wen Xun'er's true temperament!

On the way back, it was still Shen Wei who picked him up, it was snowing heavily, he was dressed in armor and riding straight on a high-headed horse, and the snow fell on top of his head, lining his face solemnly and coldly, which made people unable to take their eyebrows off.

Wen Xun'er noticed that the hand holding the reins was red from the cold, but he didn't seem to feel it at all, looking ahead, always alert.

The Wen Mansion has arrived.

Wen Xun'er and Xu both got out of the carriage, and after thinking about it, Wen Xun'er put the stove in his hand against it: "General Shen, warm your hands!" ”

Shen Wei was startled, and hurriedly took a step back, his face a little red: "No need...... Thank you Miss Wen for your kindness! I'm not cold! ”

Xu Shi took the hand stove in Wen Xun'er's hand and stuffed it in his hand: "Don't be embarrassed, this is given to you by Aunt Wen, and then!" ”

After that, he pulled Wen Xun'er into the house, leaving Shen Wei alone in the snow, looking at the stove in his hand in a daze.

Since both his parents died, no one has cared about him for a long time!

The New Year is coming soon, Xiao Jiwei's injury after two months of recuperation, finally healed, he went to Taixue as a companion on this day, the always weak figure seems to have suddenly come to the spirit, the whole body is straight, not to mention, the bottom of the eyes are also blooming with a different look.

And Wen Xun'er began to prepare for his palace election.

She didn't intend to participate in the palace election, so she didn't make detailed preparations, but Xu was enthusiastic, and prepared all the clothes and jewelry she wanted to wear inside and out, and also sorted out the information of the princes for her to memorize, in her words, success or failure in this move, whether Wen Xun'er can become the princess or not, it depends on the result this time!
