Chapter 287: "Choosing a Concubine"
Jiang Tang pondered that there were too few descriptions of the county lord in the original book, and he never mentioned these.
Just when I was curious, a casual and generous female voice came from outside:
"You're just right here, come and help me taste it."
As soon as he looked up, he saw Nangong Jiayue followed by two guards, walking towards him with several scrolls in his hands.
She walked in, sat down in her chair, and motioned for the two guards to place the scroll on the table.
Jiang Tang: "What is this?" โ
Nangong Jiayue didn't treat herself as an outsider at all, and poured herself a cup of tea: "You can just open it and take a look." โ
Inexplicably, Jiang Tang had a guess in his heart.
She chuckled at her, then picked up a scroll and slowly unfolded it.
Then, a warm and clean portrait of a young man appeared in front of her.
There are also small letters next to the portrait, indicating the name and family history of the other party.
Fang Caiyu, twenty-one, Hou Shizi of Ningguo.
โฆโฆ
Jiang Tang didn't speak, and Chunxing, who was curious to see on the side, was also stunned.
Just now, she was worried that the county lord was living in the palace to rob the prince, but now she only felt ashamed. He lowered his head and did not dare to speak again.
"These are all ......," Jiang Tang raised his eyes to look at the woman in red in front of him.
Nangong Jiayue nodded: "It's all given to me by the emperor's uncle, the portraits of marriageable men from various families in the capital." โ
As she spoke, a touch of pride appeared on her gorgeous face: "It seems that my uncle really loves my niece, and he is really thoughtful." โ
No one dared to take it.
And Jiang Tang is once again sure that he is worthy of being the cousin of the crazy male protagonist, and he is a real tiger.
After a short period of surprise, Jiang Tang also accepted this setting, and asked while watching, "Sister County Lord, don't you want to take a look?" These sons have their own styles, and their family backgrounds are also very good. โ
Nangong Jiayue was very calm: "I've seen it all, you pick and choose, if there is anything you like." โ
Jiang Tang's thin white fingers that had just landed on the next painting scroll were stunned, and he suddenly didn't dare to look down.
If it reached someone's ears, she was afraid that her hand would be gone.
Jiang Tang stopped looking, walked over to the woman in red, and asked softly: "The person the emperor chose for his sister must be excellent, but I don't know what my sister wants?" โ
"Request?" The woman turned her head and smiled at her, and was amazed: "It's very simple, just look good, don't be ugly." โ
Jiang Tang nodded, and then ordered: "Then open all the portraits and look at them." โ
As soon as she ordered, the subordinates immediately did so, and then said to Nangong Jiayue: "Sister take a look at it casually first, and leave everything that catches her eyes." When the time comes, please ask the prince to hold a banquet, find all the people, and see for yourself. โ
This time, Nangong Jiayue looked at Jiang Tang with some astonishment.
Jiang Tang turned his head to look at her: "What's wrong?" โ
She shook her head, not knowing what to say for a moment.
The little girl looks well-behaved and clever, but her tone is not small.
opened her mouth to find someone to let her choose, I don't know if I thought she was going to "choose a concubine".
The maidservants stood in a row and unfolded the portraits in their hands one by one,
The sons of each family on the portrait have upright facial features, heroic atmosphere, or peach blossom eyes are seductive, and Sven is delicate...... Judging from his appearance alone, the emperor didn't hide his selfishness at all.
The two looked at each other one by one, commented on two sentences from time to time, and finally came to a conclusion:
Jiang Tang: "Although my lord's temperament is really bad......"
Nangong Jiayue glanced at her: "But in terms of appearance, everyone can beat him." โ
Jiang Tang nodded: "Since that's the case, it's better to marry the county lord's sister." โ
"Poofโ"
This time, Nangong Jiayue squirted out a sip of tea, and the disgust on her face couldn't be suppressed: "How did you say such a terrifying thing?" โ
Jiang Tang is innocent: "Isn't it my sister who wants to look good?" The prince is actually ......"
"Master, county lord, there is a Mama Chen outside who asks to see you!"
The maid's words interrupted the conversation between the two, and Jiang Tang was keenly aware that when she mentioned "Mama Chen", Nangong Jiayue's face beside her was gloomy for a moment.
It's a pity that the system is not there now, otherwise you can ask what the situation is.
"Let her go back, the county lord is not free now......"
"The old slave has seen the county master, you haven't come back, the old slave is really worried."
An unfamiliar voice came from the doorway, and then a well-dressed old woman stood up from behind the girl.
Jiang Tang subconsciously frowned, this kind of unruly minion was placed in King Rong's mansion, and he would have died a long time ago.
looked at Nangong Jiayue beside him again, and his face was even more ugly:
"Don't you see anyone around?"
One sentence made Mama Chen's face stiffen slightly.
Then Jiang Tang felt the other party's bone-like gaze pass over her, and there seemed to be a little disdain in his eyes.
Jiang Tang: ?
Then he saluted unhurriedly: "The old slave has seen a nobleman." โ
So, where did she offend her?
There were doubts in his heart, but Jiang Tang's face did not show it: "Mama, please be polite." โ
Mama Chen got up, her eyes swept over the portrait in Yahuan's hand, and her brows were furrowed: "Forgive me, the old slave heard that the emperor sent you a portrait, and he was in a hurry, so he dared to come." โ
When Jiang Tang heard this, she only thought that she cared about Nangong Jiayue, and then the next moment she was disgusted by the old woman's words:
"The county lord has already been chosen? Who is it? The old slave could reply to the princess. โ
How can anyone decide the family matter at a glance at the portrait, there is nothing wrong with this old woman, right?
But Nangong Jiayue just frowned: "I haven't chosen it yet, you don't have to worry about it." โ
Mama Chen immediately retorted: "The county lord can't say that. The old slave is at the behest of the princess to serve you. The princess is not in good health and cannot return to Beijing, but she is very concerned about your marriage. Before leaving, he specially instructed the old slave to tell her in time no matter what the situation was. โ
There was a pause: "Let the old slave palm your eyes, I'm afraid that you are too young and will be deceived by some people who don't understand the rules and are cheap." โ
If she didn't look at herself when she spoke, Jiang Tang would only treat her as mean.
But she looked at her noisily.
makes people have to wonder, this person is so presumptuous, does he think she has a good temper? Or don't put her in sight at all?
Jiang Tang prefers the latter.
The gentle smile on her face faded, and Chun Xing on the side was about to ask her what she said, but Nangong Jiayue broke out first:
"Shut up! Who gave you the guts to talk nonsense here! Nangong Jiayue's beautiful eyes lit up and said angrily.
She was angry with yin and yang, anyway, she was used to it. But if you bully the little girl next to you, that's not good!
"Is it because the county lord hasn't been angry for too long, so that you, the dog minion, have learned to inch inch? Get out of here and kneel for me at once, and I won't get up without permission! โ
The grandmother, who was still scathing and mean, was stunned, and some couldn't pull her face and reminded:
"Have you forgotten that I was sent by the princess......
"Am I not going to be able to call you?" Nangong Jiayue's hand was already pressed on the horsewhip on her waist, as if she was going to pull it out and whip her in the next moment.
