"The old man is so old, what kind of face do you need? As long as Yan'er can live well in the future, grandpa will be able to rest assured, as for what others say, it doesn't matter! ”

Zhang He drank water from the teacup with a smile, and said to his granddaughter with a smile.

Zhang Yuyan shook her grandfather's arm and said:

"You don't have confidence in Yan'er so much, huh? I'm your granddaughter!

This means that women can't take the imperial examination, otherwise my granddaughter and I will definitely be able to give you a top prize in the exam! ”

"Hahaha! Ok, good, good! My Yan'er is a female champion! Female champion! ”

Zhang He laughed and comforted his granddaughter, and then restrained his smile, sighed and said: "It's not that grandpa doesn't believe you, it's really that grandpa has seen too much, and you forgot what happened when Your Majesty first ascended the throne?"

At that time, my grandfather cheated on his illness, and how many cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods were cheated out?

Those relatives of our Zhang family saw that I couldn't do it, and they couldn't wait to eat you with their bones.

turned all of Grandpa's big family business into his own.

Tell me, you are a girl, if your grandfather is really gone, how will you face them? ”

"My granddaughter won't be with them anymore!"

Zhang Yuyan said.

Zhang He shook his head and said, "This matter is not as simple as you think, the influence of the clan is far greater than you think.

Now they can't care about you, it's grandpa.

If grandpa leaves, it's not surprising that they will marry you to a lame grandpa, this world is cannibalism!

Even relatives are no exception.

Sometimes relatives eat harder!

If you are a male doll, grandpa will not be afraid, you can be a household, and they will have nothing to do with you.

At most, they will take up part of the property for the sake of helping you keep it, and they dare not go too far with the influence of their grandfather.

But you are a female doll, even the government will not help you, and when they forcibly marry you, then the property of the Zhang family can only be classified as family property, and they can do whatever they want.

But if you enter the palace, it's different.

Grandpa will give you the position of the fourth concubine, and when the time comes, grandpa's property will be your dowry.

When you have a child in the future, this is the foundation of your support for that child.

Grandpa will be able to rest assured below! ”

"Grandpa!"

Zhang Yuyan silently listened to Zhang He's analysis, and threw herself into the old man's arms for a long time and was reluctant to come out.

Zhang He also smiled and patted him on the back.

This is Zhang He's plan, he can't keep his industry until he only relies on Zhang Yuyan.

Rather than waiting for others to be cheaper after a hundred years, it is better to let your granddaughter enter the palace, and keep these for your great-grandson.

And after understanding her grandfather's good intentions, Zhang Yuyan worked harder to prepare.

At this time, in the Cining Palace, the Empress Dowager Zhang and Empress Xiaowen were selecting the portraits of the show girls one by one.

"Mother, what do you think of this girl?

This is the daughter of the right waiter of the household, and she is also considered to be a flower and a moon, dignified and beautiful.

What's more important is that you look at this convex and backward appearance, the butt is still big, it looks like a good birth, if you enter the palace, maybe you will be able to hold your grandson again next year! ”

Empress Xiaowen Li held up the portrait of the daughter of the right attendant of the household department in her hand, and recommended it to the Zhang family with satisfaction.

Zhang came to Li's side, but after looking at the portrait, he shook his head and said:

"I have heard of this girl, although she looks good, her body is good, but she has a spicy temperament, it is said that when she was in her hometown in Shuzhong County, she once broke three ribs of the talent introduced to him by the right waiter, it is really too fierce, Your Majesty may not like it.

Inappropriate! Inappropriate! ”

"Ahh It's so fierce?! ”

Li hurriedly put down the portrait, I really couldn't believe that there was such a fierce woman in this world, and the education she received since she was a child was to teach her daughter to be virtuous and virtuous, and to have a gentle temperament, but she had never seen such a woman, and she didn't expect that the daughter of the right attendant of the household was such a strange woman, and it should be unacceptable for His Majesty to be true.

Next, next!

Immediately, the two picked up again, and after a while, Zhang's eyes suddenly lit up, and he pointed to the portrait in front of him and said:

"Qingning, how about you come and see this girl?

This is the daughter of the royal envoy of the imperial envoy, and her height is also five feet tall, and she can also breastfeed in the future, and she looks beautiful, and the mourning family thinks it's good! ”

Hearing this, Empress Xiaowen Li hurriedly moved the lotus step lightly, and it was really good at first glance, but why was it a little familiar?

If you think about it carefully, isn't this the daughter of the envoy of King Wen who lives next to her mother's house?

The father and daughter are ......

After thinking about it for a while, Li said: "Queen Mother, the family style of this Wang family seems to be a little ......."

Zhang Shidai frowned and hurriedly asked, "How?" ”

Li Qingning said slowly: "I heard that the concubine was not married yet, and the Wang family is quite wealthy.

A few days ago, when I went home to save my relatives, I saw this Miss Wang, who even had to pay a penny, for fear that others would take advantage of him, he was quite ungenerous, and he was also very stingy with his subordinates, and I heard that the subordinates in the Wang's mansion did not like this eldest lady. ”

"That's ......"

The Empress Dowager Zhang thought about it, and then stretched her brows and said:

"Don't be afraid, it's good to train and train in the palace, besides, the daughter of a mere imperial envoy can't deserve any high position, just give him a position of nine concubines when the time comes.

She had her own queen to teach her. ”

Even when the queen mother said this, Li Qingning didn't say anything more, nodded and continued to look for it.

But after a while, she suddenly sighed softly, which attracted Zhang's attention.

"What? What good girls have you seen again? ”

Li Qingning shook his head, handed over the portrait, and at the same time found the background information of this girl and handed it to Zhang, and said with a solemn face:

"Queen Mother, this is Zhang Xiang's granddaughter!"

"Zhanghe?!"

Zhang was taken aback when he heard this, and looked at the portrait and information in his hand.

After half a ring, Zhang Shi said: "Didn't the mourning family hear that this Zhang Xiang's family is the only seedling of this granddaughter?"

How did he ......"

Zhang's words were not finished, but Li Qingning had already understood what she meant, and immediately said: "But to be sent to us, this must have been screened, and Your Majesty must already know."

Queen Mother, you look at Zhang Yuyan ......"

Zhang looked at the portrait and pondered for a long time, and then said:

"Since Your Majesty has let it go, then ...... In this way, tomorrow will hold a palace banquet in the Imperial Garden, send invitations to the wives of various families, and ask them to bring their daughters who are going to participate in the draft to the palace for the banquet.

The mourning family wants to see this lovely person with their own eyes. ”

"Good! The daughter-in-law is telling someone to do it. ”

Empress Xiaowen Li nodded, and immediately walked out of this palace and gave instructions to her subordinates.

In less than half a day, the news that the Queen Mother was going to hold a palace banquet in the imperial garden and invited all the show girls and their mothers to participate in the draft to enter the palace spread throughout Bianjing.

The people who received the news began to prepare.

And those whose parents are not there like Zhang Yanran can only prepare and pass by themselves, after all, the Queen Mother invited all the female dependents to this banquet.

Zhang He, this man is naturally not suitable to go.

When Zhao Jun heard the news, he decided to take a sneak look, and he also wanted to know, what are these draft show girls like?

Time passes slowly.

In the blink of an eye, the day is fleeting.

Early in the morning, when the old men of the family went to the court, the people who received the invitation in the capital of Manbian, the lady was preparing with her daughters and nieces and other busy work, and continued to gather towards the imperial city.
