Chapter 387: Love at First Sight
In fact, Liu Zhi has been putting secret agents around Laiyan, firstly to protect him, and secondly, to monitor.
Of course, these spies don't have to report everything, and they only report when there is a special event.
Or when Liu Zhi himself specified that he needed a certain aspect of information.
The strength of Long Linwei lies in its pervasiveness, they are the eyes and ears of the emperor, watching over everything that is needed for him, not just for individuals.
If it is peaceful today, the role played by Long Linwei does not seem to be as powerful as before, but it still has a good deterrent effect.
According to intelligence, Lai Yan has not only worked hard in her work over the years, but also has a very clean private life.
He and Liu Hua often live separately from each other, but so far, he has not added a concubine, and he has never raised a beautiful maid singer, and he is a very self-disciplined person.
Even after Liu Hua made it clear that he could no longer have children, nothing had changed.
This made Liu Zhi very pleased, Liu Hua and Lai Yan were also happy with each other at the beginning, and I hope that their relationship can last for a long time.
"Now that you're back, take a good rest, I've already contacted the doctor for you."
"Thank you, father."
The father and daughter talked in the study for more than an hour, but Deng Meng felt sorry for his daughter's tired journey and came to remind him in person, and the two of them ended unsatisfied.
That night, Liu Yu couldn't wait to find his mother to get a list of ten candidate women, and he hurried back because of this matter, so he was naturally very concerned.
When Deng Meng chose a concubine for their brother, the focus was different, Liu Jin was the crown prince, and the choice of the concubine would even affect the court pattern in the next few decades, so he was stricter about his family background.
No matter how good the personal conditions are, if the family reputation is not good, it is not among the alternatives.
Moreover, Deng Meng is more inclined to the families of those Qingliu literati, and generally speaking, the family style is relatively better.
Most of the twenty women selected were from middle-class families, or old nobles who had already declined.
As for the women themselves, they pay more attention to moral character, and appearance and talent are secondary.
But there are not so many taboos about choosing a concubine for Liu Yu, mainly because of the comprehensive quality of the women themselves, most of them are outstanding in appearance and versatile.
Liu Yu looked at the information and found that it was much the same, the conditions of the ten people were almost the same, and there was no difference.
So he decided to go to the court to take a look for himself, and the next day, when he ran to the East Palace in a hurry and wanted to invite his brother to go with him, he found that Liu Jin was so busy that he couldn't spare time at all.
Liu Zhi left most of the government affairs to his son, and also asked him to personally contact the specific affairs of the ten departments.
A huge empire, if you have to ask about everything, it is indeed a lot of opportunities, and you are so busy that you don't have time at all.
Liu Yu waited for a while, and saw that his brother really couldn't spare time, so he had to go alone.
If you want to peep, of course, you can't reveal your identity, Liu Yu was young, so he put on a set of clothes as an internal servant and swaggered.
At this point, he got the true inheritance of his father, and Liu Zhixuan used this method to choose concubine Tian Guifei and fell in love with her at first sight.
The thirty candidate women, who did not live separately, were all in the same garden, learning etiquette for half a day every day, and the rest of the time they were free to move freely in the garden.
This is also a miniature small court, and as the future crown princess, she must have the ability to manage the harem.
If you can't even solve such a simple environment, then you will face the entire harem beauties in the future, let alone face it.
It is precisely for this reason that Deng Meng instructed the eunuchs in charge of this place to not interfere with the rest of their behaviors except for prohibiting them from going out, but only to secretly observe their behaviors and then record them.
It was a little early when Liu Yu took people in, and the alternative women were still in etiquette classes, but it was just right for him to see them all at once.
When taking etiquette classes, he wore a uniform apricot-colored palace dress, and his appearance was even more obvious.
The aesthetic standards of this era are somewhat similar to those of modern times, and they like slender and fair-skinned women, but they do not advocate awl faces, but think that they are a little demonic and not dignified enough.
The goose egg face and the full moon face are the best, the atmosphere is gentle, the melon seed face is also good, and even the small square face is also considered a beauty, but it is more diverse than now.
The women selected according to this criterion have their own characteristics in appearance, and at a glance, they will not be like modern beauty pageants, with the same face, which is boring.
Liu Yu has a cheerful personality, she doesn't follow the rules, and she doesn't like women who follow the rules too much.
The etiquette class is very boring, and they have been taking it for more than ten days in a row, and the court etiquette they should learn has long been almost over.
The female court officials in charge of teaching are not strictly managed, and whether they are serious in class or not depends entirely on their consciousness.
Liu Yu stood at the back as an internal attendant, looking at it brightly.
A girl standing behind found him and felt that her face was raw, so she looked at him curiously, and her eyes were black and white and very smart, which made Liu Yu feel very interesting.
After watching it for a while, most of the women studied seriously, and there were a few who were lazy, but they didn't arouse Liu Yu's favor, but the girl with smart eyes kept attracting his attention.
After a temporary strike, some of the women went back to their residences to rest, and some played in the garden, and Liu Yu took the opportunity to ask people about the girl's information.
Who knew that when the feedback came back, this girl was not an alternative given to her by her mother, but to her brother, named Lu Yun, who was born in a Jiangdong family.
No wonder she has such a beautiful energy that a northland woman doesn't have, it's very special.
In the garden, Liu Yu followed behind Lu Yun, observing her every move, but when she turned to a relatively hidden flower dock, she lost her trace.
Liu Yu looked around differently, but was caught by Lu Yun, "Hey, why are you following me, what do you want?" ”
Lu Yun pointed at him and asked, which made Liu Yu feel very interesting, did his mother lose her eyes, such a little pepper was actually chosen by her brother.
"I'm just looking at it casually, you don't look at me, how do you know I'm following?"
Liu Yu deliberately teased her, but Lu Yun smiled slyly, "Hehe, which waiter opens his mouth and closes his mouth, you and me, at first glance, it looks like a bad one, I have already called the guards over, you can watch it." ”
He really underestimated this girl, she was actually quite scheming, and she was definitely not an ordinary person who could appear here.
She deliberately warned herself, not only to ensure her own safety, but also not to offend the other party, and sure enough, there was no simple one who could enter his mother's eyes.
Although Liu Yu likes Lu Yun, he also has some concerns, after all, he is not his alternative, in case he causes any rumors, it will not be good.
He didn't want to attract the attention of others, so he accepted it when he saw it and left with someone.
When he returned to Changqiu Palace, he didn't hide it, he told his mother about 1510, of course, he didn't have to be Lu Yun, he just had a good impression.
"I have some impressions of this sister-in-law of the Lu family, at that time, I thought she was very assertive and well-founded, so I chose her as Jin'er's alternative."
