Chapter 27: The Pretty Man (1)
The Empress sat in the upper seat of the main hall, holding a cup of warm tea in her hand, but did not drink it.
His eyes were looking straight ahead, his brow furrowed slightly.
In fact, the princess is not bad-looking, her name is Huaixin, and she is two in her twenties.
She was straight, with a straight waist, a hint of heroism in her eyebrows, a few strands of black hair combed in a bun on the top of her head, a golden hairpin inserted, and the rest all draped over her shoulders.
At this moment, even if she leaned over and supported herself on the table with one hand, her waist did not collapse, and her body with the gold belt was lined more tightly and powerfully.
"Second child, don't go, I'm dizzy when I see it."
The second princess hurriedly stood still.
"Sorry...... But Eldest Sister Huang, I'm so anxious. ”
The second princess smashed her hands together, and her fat face was also bitter.
She said that the four princesses were pregnant with spirits, and they were obviously drunk every day before, and the mother and queen disliked them, and the ministers hated them.
Who would have thought that if I quit drinking now, I would return to the fourteen or fifteen years old, heroic.
The second princess gritted her teeth.
"What can I do? Eldest Sister Huang, I really don't know. My daughter painted at the 100th birthday banquet before, and she compared us to each other, but yesterday she was even more like a prophet, and even dodged my attack and exchanged glasses with me while drinking......"
The princess said coldly: "You have one less thing to say, now you fell off the horse and were doused with horse manure, and you still had a bad stomach at the banquet, which can be said to be known to the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty, and it must have been revealed by Huai Ling." ”
At the mention of this, the second princess had a headache.
"Ah yes, I got up early this morning and went to the palace to find the mother to apologize, but the mother didn't even see me."
The Empress shook her head slightly.
"It's strange that the mother emperor can take care of you, you must save your position in the heart of the mother emperor, otherwise you will break first in the future, even if I succeed to the throne, I will not be able to fish you up."
The second princess was even more scared when she heard this.
"Elder Sister Huang, I also think Huai Ling is ...... Target me! ”
The imperial lady said with a cold face: "It's not that she targeted you, but you targeted her first, so she took revenge on you." ”
The second princess choked.
I wondered how the eldest sister of the emperor could help Huai Ling's sister?
But the queen still said that she had to be alert.
At the beginning, the emperor set up a princess, although he liked the six princesses, but the six princesses were too young to be entrusted with important tasks.
The fifth child is sick and weak, the third child has little decisiveness, not to mention the second child, he has not been smart since he was a child, so he is torn between her and Huailing.
Later, the emperor's husband, Emperor Yunhui, had no daughters under his knees, so he accepted the eldest princess who had no father to raise and grew up in the princess since childhood.
This is the transformation of the concubine into the concubine.
The emperor also naturally chose her as the crown princess.
But she has been sitting on pins and needles, and it is difficult to sleep and eat.
Because she knows that she can change from a concubine to a concubine, so can Huai Ling.
She must suppress Huailing from now on.
"Second child, in the Winter Festival half a month later, there is a special martial arts competition program in the palace, you have to take the first place in that show and make the mother queen happy."
"But...... But the eldest sister of the emperor, I can't even beat you, how can I beat Huai Ling. ”
The Empress slammed the table.
The second princess was frightened.
She hurriedly pumped her mouth, "What I mean is that the eldest sister of the emperor is both civil and military, smart and brave, and that Huai Ling is light and two years younger than me, so I can't beat her." ”
"Hmph, then assassinate, you do yours, I do mine, this time you can be smart, you pig's head, don't show any expression like last time, Huai Ling saw you and turned your army."
"Yes...... It's ......"
The second princess thought for a moment.
suddenly thought of Xia Ziqing.
It's the rare bamboo horse before Huailing.
The sister-in-law of the Minister of First Rank.
"Eldest Sister Huang, hasn't that Xia Ziqing always admired your position as a monarch? He's been helping you before, why didn't he help him last time he painted? ”
These words happened to be heard by Xia Ziqing, who came to visit.
Xia Ziqing was dressed in green clothes, and her face was beautiful, but she didn't have the charm of those vulgar people.
Sure enough, he is the most beautiful man in the imperial capital.
He saluted the crown princess and the second princess.
Then he said: "Your Highnesses, it was Huai Ling who didn't talk to me before, so I didn't have a chance, but she wrote to me many times later to show her love to me, so this time I ...... I will definitely be able to help Her Royal Highness. ”
With that, Xia Ziqing turned around and left.
He had actually planned to get close to Huai Ling.
If you don't show your purpose quickly, the queen daughter will promote her husband, who grew up with her since childhood, from a side monarch to a righteous monarch, and she will have nothing to do with herself.
He had seen too many men in the palace.
If you don't marry directly as a Zhengjun, even if you succeed Zhengjun later, it will be difficult to convince the public.
When the imperial lady becomes the emperor, as the emperor, he is easy to dig out those things in his early years and be ridiculed by other favorite husbands.
Thinking like this, without a stick of incense, Xia Ziqing came to the door of Huai Ling's mansion.
He was about to knock on the door when he heard a voice inside.
"Tang Bao'er, the weather is good today, I'll take you to fly a kite."
"Also, I'm here to put it, just come and see, is your body still in pain? Your feet still hurt, so you can't stand for long. ”
Xia Ziqing was stunned.
Tang Bao'er?
And Huai Ling's gentle voice, isn't this just for himself?
Why would she still say it to another person now?
Soon, the door was pushed open.
Huai Ling put his arm around Jintang's waist with one hand and a kite in the other, and when he raised his eyes, he saw Xia Ziqing.
She was slightly stunned at first, and then said very politely: "Young Master Xia, what are you doing?" ”
Xia Ziqing also held a kite in his hand.
He was a little overwhelmed for a moment before telling himself.
He is the most beautiful man in the imperial capital, and Huai Ling is just a fool next to him, what is he afraid of?
So Xia Ziqing took a deep breath.
"Your Royal Highness Huailing, I heard that the second princess fell off her horse and was frightened at a horse racing competition yesterday, and she was sick, are you okay? I'm really worried about you, and I don't want me to fly a kite, so that you can relax and feel more relaxed. ”
Huai Ling wanted to spit on his face.
Still distracted? When I see you, I will block my heart and be ashamed.
"No need, I'm going to accompany my husband to fly a kite and let him relax, if it's just this matter, please go back."
Xia Ziqing frowned, and the hand holding the kite tightened and tightened.
This Princess Huailing, is it really wrong in her brain?
"Wyring! I'm worried about you...... You used to like to follow me the most, 'brother' and 'brother' to make me care about you, don't you? ”
Before Huailing could speak.
Jintang listened to a stirring spirit.
He immediately retorted.
"Your Highness doesn't need your concern...... I am also older than Your Highness...... I can also be a good brother to His Highness......"
Somehow, Jintang actually had a great sense of crisis.
There was a voice in my heart.
Huailing can only have me as a man.
I also only have one woman, Huailing.
Have to!
