Vol 18 Chapter 24 (38)

How about it, you have done the filial piety that you should have, and it is enough to be worthy of your heart. Why do you need to keep entangled in what she thinks? If you could figure it out, you wouldn’t be what you are now. If she could figure it out, she wouldn’t have done such a thing back then. You really don’t need to blame her for your fault. Even if she is an elder, if she is wrong, she is wrong. People always have to be responsible for the wrong things they have done. Even if she gave birth to you, do you still have to sacrifice your life for her? Fourth brother, are you stupid? ”

Although Shangguan Chao’s words are not necessarily correct, they are exactly the same as Liu Fang said: people are still young and love themselves more, let’s talk about loving others.

There’s nothing wrong with being selfish.

Therefore, when Liu Fang asked these two relatively selfish children what they wanted from their future wives, Shangguan Yan said, “It’s enough to understand the sense of proportion.”

What kind of appearance, temperament, these things don’t need to be said. The royal draft is strict, and it is impossible for people who are too bad to be selected in the end.

Liu Fang looked at Shangguan Yan with a warm air and didn’t know what to say. She couldn’t help but confirm again, “Is it enough to understand the sense of proportion? What else? Do you want her to be more lively or quiet? ”

Shangguan Yan looked at Liu Fang, a little helpless, and said gently, “Mother concubine, women who can make it to the final election, do you think their temperament will be very bad?”

Even if it is pretending, it will pretend to be quiet and elegant, and it is like this, why should he say anything more? Anyway, no matter what kind of temperament a woman is, in his hands, he can tune/teach the other party well.

It’s not that he has any perverted hobbies and a strong desire to control. It can only be said that most of the people who get married under such circumstances are the same. In the end, he still has to teach him. Whether the teaching is good or not depends on him. ‘s ability.

As for whether it will be re-tuned/taught?

Shangguan Yan was not worried at all.

After seeing the relationship between the father and the queen in the palace, as well as the mother and concubine, he already understood that husband and wife, husband and wife, themselves influence each other and run in each other. If the other party has the ability to tune/teach him in turn, and he can still succeed, that is also the ability of the other party, and he admits it!

Seeing that Shangguan Yan said this, Liu Fang, even if she was helpless, can only forget it, that’s it.

When asked about Shangguan Chao, he directly said, “Find someone who is in good health, preferably someone who knows martial arts, otherwise, Erchen and her won’t be able to play together.”

Liu Fang: …

She raised her hand in anger and slapped him, “They’re all married, they’re adults.

Now, I still want to play! Shangguan Chao, when did you know you were going to grow up? ! ”

People are marrying a daughter-in-law, but you are better, thinking about finding a playmate for yourself!

What an enemy!

Shangguan Chao: …

Okay, the mother-in-law is angry, she should hurry up and run away, the more she refutes, the more she will be beaten.

However, he finally said, “Mother concubine, when you stop calling me by my nickname, I will grow up. Pingkang, Pingkang, I have grown up, this name is childish and not childish…”

As he spoke, he ran away, and the last words came from a distance.

Liu Fang: …

Wouldn’t it be easier for her to kill him now?

What an enemy!

The selection process was harsh, and there were still a few days before the final selection. The next day, the queen sent people to Luanfu Palace to call Liu Fang to Fengqi Palace, because it was a matter of choosing concubines for several princes.

Liu Fang went to Fengqi Palace and sat down after greeting the queen. The queen took a book and asked Celadon to pass it to her.

“These are probably the show girls who are going to participate in the final selection. Even if there will be changes in the past few days, it won’t be too big. Let’s take a look. I have sent people to check their family background, temperament, generally speaking. There’s nothing wrong with it. However, you’d better take a look first and have a good idea. This has been written clearly. In addition, Liang’s and Yao’s side, I also sent people the roster, how about you? Let’s discuss and discuss and see who will be decided in the end.”

It’s better to discuss it first, so as not to fight when it’s time, it would be ugly.

Liu Fang understood, she took the roster, leaned over and said, “Xie Niangniang bothered, these days, the tired Niangniang.”

The queen raised her hand and said, “I am their mother after all, this should be my duty, but I can’t say that I am not tired or tired. I only want them to live and be beautiful in the future, then it will not be in vain for me now. It’s a heart.”

Liu Fang smiled and said, “With the empress guarding, the selected person is of course a good choice. If they don’t live well in the future, it means they are incompetent, so what do they have to do with the empress? After all, we are elders, After doing their best, they have to walk the rest of the way.”

The queen sighed, “Yeah, they have to go their own way in the future.”

For this kind of thing, as an elder, you can only do your best to choose the right person, try to choose the right person, that’s all. No matter how much more, it only depends on whether they have fate, or whether the fate is right or not.

Sometimes, a good marriage really needs a little luck. This is still the case in future generations, let alone now?

The queen immediately said, “By the way, does Mrs. Pei know about Xiao Si’s choice of a concubine?”

Liu Fang nodded, “It was the concubine who specially asked Hao’er to tell her.”

The queen shook her head and sighed softly, “This Pei Shi… that’s all, let her go, as long as she doesn’t affect the little four anymore.”

Over the years, because of the good relationship between the children, the relationship between the queen and Liu Fang, and the relationship between others are also very good.

Although she doesn’t like to be lively, she likes to chat with them every day.

In fact, Emperor Xuan of Jin didn’t plan to do the draft, but the queen said that if she didn’t do the draft, then she would be the queen to hold a flower viewing banquet and invite those who are going to marry the girl.

The family brought girls into the palace to participate, and secretly chose.

This kind of banquet, it is impossible to get results in one time, it must be held three or five times, or even more, this tossing, it is not as fast as the draft.

When the queen said this, Emperor Xuan of Jin thought that he didn’t have to do anything in the palace all year round, except that there were a lot of banquets, various festivals, and the birthdays of the concubines, right? There are also the Queen’s birthday, Jin Xuan Emperor’s own birthday, etc., which add up to a lot.

These alone are enough for the queen to keep busy. So, don’t look at the queen who is usually very busy, in fact, there are many things that should be busy.

For things like the draft, she will be busy in the final election later. The primary election and the re-election will all be watched by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Shang Palace Bureau, the Ministry of Rites, and the Imperial Hospital, so she doesn’t need to care about it.

Therefore, in comparison, of course, the drafting method is more worry-free and labor-saving than holding a secretly selected flower viewing banquet.

The queen didn’t leave Liu Fang more, and let her go back to look for Liang Shi and Yao Shi and the others to discuss it after a few more chats.

Liu Fang called Mrs Liao too, but unexpectedly, Qingyue and Chaoyang also came.

As soon as Chaoyang came in to pay his respects, he said, “I hope your mother will forgive me. The concubine also wants to learn from the scriptures. Let’s take a look at the rules of this draft for the selection of the princess, and I will have some experience in the future.”

The 12th prince of Qingyue, Shangguan Xun, and the thirteenth prince of Chaoyang, Shangguanming, are approaching 11 this year, and it is really not a few years before the concubine will be chosen.

Now that they came to learn the scriptures, although it was a little early, it was considered a rainy day, and it was normal.

Liu Fang smiled and said, “That’s right, you can come here and give some advice. Let’s brainstorm and try to choose the most suitable candidate for the princess for the children.”

“Yes.”

No one else had an opinion, so they all sat down, looked at the roster, and began to discuss.

Qingyue looked at the list of candidates above, but said with emotion: “The Queen Mother has been bothered, and she has chosen so many people.”

The final list is now a total of thirty-five people. Although the number seems small, there are many noble families, and there are also high-ranking members from aristocratic families. Of course, there are also rank 2 and 3 officials, ordinary Hanlin families… but they are basically from noble families, and they are all descended from the family. It can be seen that the empress really chose carefully, not because the princes grew up, they began to consider meeting. It won’t affect the status of the prince, or, in other words, will it lead to the struggle for succession.

It can be seen that the queen is really selected according to each person’s temperament, and there is no such thing as

Too many stakeholder ideas.

This is already very rare.

Qingyue and Chaoyang looked at each other, and both of them were relieved. If their children can choose concubine like this in the future, then they will be satisfied.

Liu Fang smiled and said, “How? Do you have any ideas?”

Mr. Liao was really completely silent and did not speak, just waiting for others to speak.

After reading it, Liang pointed to the name of a beautiful girl from a sixth-rank Hanlin family and said, “I think this is good, what do you think, Niangniang?”

Liu Fang turned her head to look at it, and saw that it was written: Wen Shi, the daughter of the sixth-rank Hanlin Wen family, is the sixth in the family, young/daughter. There are three brothers who belong to the same mother, and there is another one who belongs to the same family. One mother’s direct sister, and another direct uncle’s cousin.

Looking at the family life carefully, it turns out that Wen’s father was the eldest son in the family back then, but he was gifted and intelligent. Since he was a child, he eavesdropped on the village middle school while shepherding sheep, and he was able to eavesdrop on a lot of things. I have learned all the words and articles in the Enlightenment textbook, and I understand the specific interpretation better. At the same time, I also have some opinions of my own.

Therefore, Wen’s father was placed in high hopes by the family later, and he devoted his whole family to support him to go to school, and finally he was admitted to the Jinshi and became the Hanlin of the Hanlin Academy. According to what was written above, this one was still the third flower in the period of the late emperor.

But this Wen Hanlin’s luck is really not very good. Just when he was returning home, he suddenly heard that there was a flood in his home. His parents and family members in his hometown had been drowned. that one daughter.

Wen Hanlin was distraught, he really wished he would die together. But seeing his wife and children, as well as his niece who had lost his parents and was waiting to be fed, he really couldn’t talk about life and death lightly.

In this way, this niece was adopted by Wen Hanlin and has been raised until now.

Coincidentally, Wen Hanlin’s youngest/daughter Wen Ying is fifteen this year, and Wen Hanlin’s niece and Wen Ying’s cousin, she is only sixteen.

Looking at this Wen Ying, Mrs Liang said, “My little five has a simple and honest temperament. It’s better to choose a girl with such a simple temperament.”

Yao shi looked at it and nodded, “This one is indeed similar in temperament to Xiao Wu, so I will choose this one.”

She pointed to the one under Wen Ying: Tang Anbo’s mansion’s daughter, Tang Shi Yingzhu, was born directly, and she was ranked third in the family. In addition, there is a direct-born elder brother who belongs to the same mother, and a concubine elder brother is born.

three people. There is a younger brother who is born with the same mother, and there is no younger brother.

This is very interesting.

Although this Tang Yingzhu came from a relatively better background, her family is very complicated, from direct descendants to concubines.

Looking at her detailed biography, sure enough, Tang Anbo was one of the more established honors in the Jin Dynasty. During the Tai/zu period, he won such an earl position due to military exploits, ranking third. Because this earl is a double-character title, it is still much higher than the ordinary fifth-grade earl without a title. In addition, this is a position of earl that can be hereditary and irreplaceable. It can be seen that although it is said to be an earl, Tang Anbo’s mansion is actually quite prestigious in the circle of nobles in Beijing.

It’s just that the current Tang Anbo doesn’t have much ability, but he hasn’t caused any disaster either. Cowardly, but lustful, he has no achievements in government affairs, except for an inherited earl name, he has nothing on his body. But Tang Anbo has a problem. As everyone knows in Beijing, he likes beautiful women very much!

This kind of liking is not a common liking, much less the kind of liking that ordinary people understand. He is not interested in ordinary vulgar fans, nor does he like to linger in Hualou or anything. He likes beauties from a good family, and must be the kind of beauties that are absolutely rare.

And once he likes it, he will have a vigorous “true love” process. In this process, if he can go through ninety-eighty-one hardships, then he will be even more excited.

However, if the beauty doesn’t like him, abandons him in the middle, or rejects him from the beginning, he will not blame him, although he will never forget it, he will not continue to entangle.

As for those beauties who were moved by his so-called “true love” and welcomed home? As short as a year and a half, or as long as three or five years, he will start a new “true love” and forget the previous “true love”.

Such a wonderful father who lives on the road of finding “true love” every day, how is the situation in his house, in fact, everyone here has heard more or less about it.

When he was young, Tang Anbo’s mansion was really messed up for a while. Later, Mrs. Tang Anbo personally took action to rectify it, and this group of beauties was completely suppressed. So far, no bad things have been reported.

As for Mrs. Tang Amber? I’m sorry, she is also a beauty who was “true love” by Tang Anbo when she was young and ignorant.

It’s just that she was lucky, when she met Tang Anbo at that time

, the man was not married and the woman was not married, and if she was in the right household, she became Tang Anbo’s wife, the current Mrs. Tang Anbo.

However, Tang Anbo has always only liked delicate and delicate beauties. This kind of beauty is good-looking, but after she loses “true love” in the future, she really has no way to live independently.

Therefore, Mrs. Tang Anbo, who has been “true love”, has always been the one to tear herself apart from other “true loves”. Even if she has a child, she only sees the husband of true love, and no one else is busy all day long. If there is no time to fight for favor, where do you have time to take care of housework and suppress concubines?

In her opinion, the best way to relieve her anger is to roll up her sleeves and beat them to the point of full face. This is the best way to suppress them.

But such a mistress, to be honest, in this era, in a noble family, is really not suitable.

No, Mrs. Tang Anbo, who is a lot of age, has to regain the power of housekeeper and take care of her son’s wives and concubines in person. I really don’t know what to say.

To sum up: the Tang family, the family style is very chaotic.

☆、550、93

Liu Fang was a little strange about Yao’s selection of the girl from the Tang family, “This Tang family is not very peaceful. Children who come out of such a family style have different ideas.”

Yao Shi smiled and said, “Niangniang, you also know that I don’t come from a high family background. No matter how good the family style of a merchant’s family is, it is actually limited. But I am lucky. There are times when you need to use your own brain.”

What you think about in private doesn’t need to be brought here. Yao Shi paused and said, “As for me, I think I’m a smart person. But my little six, sigh, Niangniang, you also know, His temperament, I can’t even look at his naivety. It’s a good thing that he was reincarnated and was born in our family, but to be honest, with such a temperament, he will leave the palace and build a mansion in the future, but he will not be accepted Confused by coaxing? Anyway, I don’t ask him to be more promising, I just ask someone who understands the world to help him, just look at him and don’t be stupid.”

Listening to what she said, Liu Fang felt that this girl from the Tang family was quite suitable. After all, those who could stay must have been inspected by the queen in all aspects. Since the Tang family has such a family style, the queen can take this Tang Yingzhu. If she stays, it proves that there is nothing wrong with her own conduct.

At this time, Mrs. Liang said, “This Tang family is actually not very good, but it is only Tang Anbo himself and his backyard. In fact, all the children of the Tang family are in the old lady’s courtyard. Upbringing here, no matter the descendants, they all look good.”

Liu Fang raised her eyebrows, “Oh? Really?”

Liang Shi nodded, “Xiao Wu has always liked to read, and the courses in the palace were already tight enough, but he still went out to the palace to buy books as soon as he arrived at Mu Xiu, or went to the academy outside Beijing to listen, so he went back and forth. Yes, it’s just that they have an intersection with the sons of the Tang family. According to Xiao Wu, several sons of the Tang family have been taught by the old lady well, and they are of good character, so they can still marry.”

Liu Fang nodded, “Since that’s the case, this girl Tang must also have her strengths.”

Yao shi nodded, “With parents like that, children will always be different.”

This is true.

Liu Fang temporarily agreed with Yao’s choice, and it all depends on the specific circumstances of the final election.

Mrs Liang looked at Liu Fang and said with a smile, “I don’t know which one your mother likes?”

Liu Fang smiled slightly and pointed to the person on the page next to Wen Ying: Wen Ying’s cousin, Wen Qian.

“This is very suitable for Hao

child’s. ”

One was abandoned by his biological mother, and the other was without his parents. He had been under the supervision of others since childhood. The situation of the two was similar, and this Wen Qian’s temperament was also quite suitable.

There is one thing written on it: Wen Ying was able to stay because of the company of her cousin and her secret advice.

So, this is a very smart and very heartful child.

She probably felt that the result of whether she stayed or not was the same. She was just an orphan, and there might be zero candidates. No prince would choose her as a princess. The reason why she tried so hard to stay was because her cousin Wen Ying had a pure temperament and was worried that she would be bullied, so she stayed with her.

But what she didn’t know was that this time the draft did not focus on family conditions, but on personal conduct to decide whether to stay or stay.

Therefore, she has been able to stay so far, which is enough to explain the problem. This is a very good child, with temperament and experience, and it is also suitable for Shangguan Hao.

As for Shangguan Yan and Shangguan Chao, Liu Fang chose for them a girl from the Luo family who came from an aristocratic family, and a girl from the Lan family who came from a family of military generals.

She has only one daughter in Luo Shi’s family. She has a huge family and comes from a famous family. Her father is the present minister of Rites, and she is a close friend with Liu Fang’s eldest brother, Liu Jie. At the same time, this Roche is also very proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. It just so happens that Shangguan Yan is actually a person who likes this very much. The temperaments of the two are relatively rational, but this Roche has been doted on since childhood and can maintain her current temperament. It can be seen that her mind is very tough, and at the same time, she also has a soft and tolerant personality. Heart.

Don’t think that children who are spoiled by their families must be cute or unruly. There are some people who have been cold-blooded since childhood, but in order to cooperate with their family’s doting, let them be full of love and be able to have It also requires a lot of patience and tolerance, and a very soft heart to be able to do this.

Children who are willing to make accommodating changes for the sake of their families are rare good children.

Shangguan Yan’s temperament is actually of this type. Everyday Liu Fang felt a little distressed when she saw that he accommodated all his younger brothers and sisters and did everything he could as a brother.

Therefore, when choosing a future princess candidate for him, Liu Fang wanted to choose someone with similar temperament. He didn’t need to bother to accommodate him in the future. The two of them would naturally have enough tacit understanding. This kind of life would make his life easier.

comfortable.

And what about Shangguan Chao? His temperament is too detached, and finding a military general’s family is just enough to take care of him. Didn’t he say it himself? Find someone who knows martial arts, has good physical strength, and can play with him.

Liu Fang will fulfill him!

Anyway, she saw that Lan’s martial arts are very good. She can pull the five-stone bow and wear Yang a hundred steps. In addition, she also has a good whip technique. of.

Liu Fang felt that this was very good and a perfect match.

After hearing the two candidates mentioned by Liu Fang, Mrs Liao smiled and nodded in agreement. As for whether her son will be beaten or not, she is not worried!

Anyway, it’s my son, and it’s okay to beat him twice.

Qingyue and Chaoyang looked at each other and both sympathized with the third prince in their hearts. They felt that the child’s future life was really lively.

After a few people negotiated, they chatted for a while and then dispersed.

Soon came the final day.

Liu Fang got up early in the morning to wash and dress up, and was eating breakfast when the people from the Queen’s Palace came over with the roster.

“I’ve seen the imperial concubine, this is the final list, please have a look.”

Mo Qi took it, stood beside Liu Fang, and opened it to show her. After Liu Fang looked at it, she raised her eyebrows slightly, put down the silver chopstick, wiped her mouth, and said, “Why is there another person above?”

The man from the palace bowed and replied, “Reporting to the maiden, the new addition is a girl from Zhennanhou’s mansion. Zhennanhou has been guarding the southern sea area for a long time, and he only returned to Beijing this year to recuperate, just in time for the draft. Therefore, after entering Beijing, It was reported to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, stating that there are still girls in the family who have not yet left the cabinet, and they should run for election. After the emperor learned about it, he gave grace to exempt the girls from Zhennan Houfu from the primary election, re-election, and went directly to Beijing to participate in the final election. You can.”

Liu Fang frowned, so it seems that the temperament of the Zhennan Hou is not right. In addition, there is also a problem with the attitude of Emperor Xuan of Jin.

“I don’t know, does the emperor have a will?”

The man in the palace replied, “The Empress is holy, and the Empress has also asked her Majesty, but the Emperor only has one word: Since the Marquis of Zhennan has been reported, it is fine for the girls of his family to participate in this final election, and it will also affect the loss of the election. nothing.”

Liu Fang understood, it seemed that Emperor Xuan of Jin didn’t like seeing this Marquis of Zhennan very much.

That’s it.

Liu Fang nodded, “Thank you for your hard work, go down and receive the reward, I won’t keep you any longer.”

“The slaves are frightened and dare not say anything. The slaves thank the concubine for the reward, and the slaves retire.”

After waiting for the others to retreat, Liu Fang continued

Continue to pick up the silver chopsticks for breakfast.

Mo Qi went out for a while, and when Liu Fang finished eating and was rinsing her mouth, she came back and stood beside Liu Fang, leaning over to Liu Fang’s ear and saying, “The Marquis of Zhennan has been guarding the south for 20 years. He was in charge of the navy in the southern area. Until last year, Mo Xue’s husband made military exploits, and he also made a secret case, exposing the bribery of the Duke of Zhennan. That’s why he returned to Beijing to recuperate and handed over to Guangnan completely. The power of the navy…”

Liu Fang raised her eyebrows, spit out the tea in her mouth, raised her hand, let the maid in front of her retreat first, turned her head and said to Mo Qi, “Let’s see where this girl from Zhennan Hou’s mansion is in line, and follow him. The Ministry of Internal Affairs will check, where is the person on the list I handed in before, and try to end this final election before she enters the palace to meet. Do you understand?”

Mo Qi nodded and bowed in response, “Here. The servant understands, the maid can rest assured, the servant will come over in person.”

Liu Fang nodded and said in a low voice, “Let the people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs remember, you must be calm, and not leave any traces.”

“Here.”

Watching Mo Qi leave, Liu Fangcai frowned and sighed, these people really have no time to stop.

…

Xiuzhuang Palace

The show girls who participated in this election all lived here.

Early in the morning, the grandmother in the palace had already sent someone to knock on the bamboo board of the bed, and then began to check the process with them over and over again, and finally let them go to breakfast, dress up, put on uniform, and then Arrange in line according to family status.

This team is completely arranged according to the position of each father’s official position. Gao Mingyue, the girl from Zhennan Hou’s mansion, is in the front of all the beautiful girls, the first, the first row.

However, when they were outside the main hall, the caller from the Ministry of Internal Affairs came over and said to them that the caller should start from the lowest rank, and the higher the rank, the last. Therefore, Gao Mingyue was placed at the end. One row, last one.

When the sun in the sky shone on the entire main hall of Xiuzhuang Palace, the queen and the others’ cars slowly arrived.

All the beautiful girls knelt down and bowed, and they fell down on the ground. They could only see the white jade stone slabs spread on the ground in the palace, and the long skirts that passed by when the nobles walked.

Gao Mingyue knelt at the back, and when no one was paying attention, she raised her head slightly, looked forward, and when she saw the group of luxuriously dressed women walking slowly, her heart was full of resentment.

Why? These people can stand tall, wait for her to kneel down for them, and even watch

Don’t even look at it.

But without her father, who has been guarding the border waters for many years, where would they have such a peaceful life, prosperity and wealth?

Gao Mingyue only felt a fire in her heart.

But she remembered that her father said sternly to her: If you lose the election this time, my father will directly ask you to marry back to Guangnan, and marry the barbarian tribe patriarch there. Presumably, they must be willing to pay a lot of gold and silver to marry you. of.

Gao Mingyue was afraid, she was afraid that she would go back to that place where there was a lot of miasma, and she would not live in that backcountry again.

She likes the prosperity of Kyoto, the dignity and solemnity in the imperial city, and even more like the people of her age who are surrounded by her in the capital and are full of envious eyes.

Kyoto is so good, she must stay.

Gao Mingyue told herself: Endure the humiliation for a while, and she will be able to live her dream life in the future!

This draft is for the prince to choose the right concubine. Therefore, only the queen, Liu Fang and others will participate. Qingyue and Chaoyang have high positions, so naturally they should also participate. Liang and Yao are the biological mothers of the fifth and sixth princes. He also wanted to participate, and Mrs. Liao was specially called by Liu Fang.

Everyone entered the hall and sat on the high seat. Liu Fang and the queen were sitting in the highest position, the queen was in the middle, Liu Fang was sitting on the right, and three steps down, Qingyue and Chaoyang were sitting on both sides.

Mrs Liao sat on the left, the last seat, next to Mrs Yao, and next to Mrs Yao was Qingyue. Opposite them are Chaoyang and Liang.

After everyone was seated, the palace servants lowered the curtain to block the people on the high seat, and then nodded to the summoning officer, signaling the beginning of the final election.

Liu Fang took advantage of the fact that the summoning officer finally went out to confirm the number of people, and said to the queen with a smile, “When the ministers and concubines entered the palace, when the prince chose his concubine, he never experienced such a final election.”

Liu Fang and the others were circled by Emperor Jin Xuan directly by looking at the roster. The prince would choose a concubine. After he observed it secretly, he told the empress and Emperor Jin Xuan, and ordered it directly.

Therefore, this time the draft is truly and completely experienced the final selection process.

The queen also remembered, she smiled and said, “I can only say that the emperor has a unique eye, and he can choose you to enter the palace without looking at real people.”

Except for the Pei family, the concubines and concubines who came to the palace were actually pretty good. At least the queen felt that it was very worry-free.

Liu Fang smiled, “It is also a blessing for the courtiers and concubines to meet the gracious and fair lord of the harem like the Empress.”

The queen gave Liu Fang an angry look and said with a smile, “You are used to saying nice things to coax me, but I can’t be fooled! Don’t think that I will give you preferential treatment in the dowry, three children, the amount of the dowry is quite a lot, you can Don’t make a fool of yourself.”

The others couldn’t help laughing when they heard it, Liang Shi suddenly said, “Empress Empress, you can’t favor one over the other, the noble concubine’s mouth is sweet, and the concubines can’t match, but the concubine only has one Xiao Wu, so it’s better to give more betrothal gifts. It’s not much, but it’s still a lot more cost-effective than the imperial concubine’s.”

The queen smiled and pointed at Liang Shi, “Okay, people will come in soon, and they are still making trouble here. Be careful, I will punish you to go back and copy the scriptures.”

Mrs. Liang smiled, “Copying scriptures and praying for Niangniang is what the concubines should do, so why should the concubine punish me? Niangniang, for the sake of me/day and night copying scriptures and praying for you, it is better to treat the concubines preferentially. .”

Yao Shi gave her an angry look and said, “If you treat you favorably, then you can’t treat me favorably.

It’s a matter of priority before I talk about you. ”

The queen sighed, “Okay, you have discussed it, right? You can come to me to ask for preferential treatment. I can’t say anything about you. Then this time, the dowry gifts of several children will be preferentially treated. In the future, we will follow this. How about the standard?”

Everyone smiled and leaned over, “Niangniang Shengming, thank Niangniang for your kindness.”

The queen smiled helplessly, pointed at Liu Fang and said, “You brought it all together.”

Liu Fang smiled and said, “If it wasn’t for the concubine’s intentions, it would be useless for me to say anything?”

I can’t wait for the queen to finally do it. If they go to the serious thank you, then the relationship will be different.

Now, after the gag said, the feeling in everyone’s heart is completely different.

Seeing that all the empresses had stopped talking and laughing, the summoning officer began to call on the roster.

In fact, the previous ones don’t need to be read much. Those who are not on the list of candidates they have selected will be directly given flowers and rejected. Afterwards, they will naturally be rewarded, and they will not lose their decent reputation.

When the orphaned girl Wen Qian walked in, Liu Fang carefully looked at her appearance through the curtain. She was a very beautiful and refined woman with a calm and indifferent temperament. It could be seen that her temperament must be very tough and stable. living.

Next to her was her cousin Wen Ying, who looked very innocent indeed, her downcast eyes turned slightly, she was very curious, but she looked like she was holding back.

Liang was very satisfied when he saw it.

Liu Fang looked at Wen Qian and liked it more and more, especially her rules were very good, and she had obviously worked hard. After all, it was already very good to be able to learn the etiquette in the palace to such an extent in just one or two months. Rare.

After all, the Wen family was just a noble Hanlin family with a good name, but in fact it was a relatively poor family, that is, a little bit richer than the common people.

According to the records on the roster, up to now, Wen Hanlin’s family still lives in the outer city of Kyoto, or rents a house.

It’s no wonder that the Wen family is a poor family, and Wen Hanlin’s salary is limited. He is not a person who knows how to work hard. He is honest and the salary is good enough to support the family.

Therefore, in addition to boys, the Wen family can also go to the academy to study, in order to prepare for the imperial examination in the future, girls, that is, read some books with the family, literate, learn to housekeepers and directors, and nothing else. .

What kind of aristocratic etiquette, palace etiquette, these are impossible to learn at home, so the two children of the Wen family are participating.

After the draft, the teaching received, it is very rare to be able to learn to be like this.

Liu Fang and Mrs. Liang looked at each other, and then both nodded slightly to the queen, who smiled and nodded to Celadon. After Celadon got the signal, she made a gesture to the maid below, and then the maid made a gesture to the caller outside. As soon as he stayed, the summoner said loudly, “Wen’s stay!”

At first Wen Qian thought she was talking about her cousin Wen Ying, but when the jade card handed over by the palace maid appeared in front of her eyes, she was stunned and hesitated for a while before taking it.

The bishop in the palace has long said that at this time, no matter what decision the nobles make, they cannot make any noise that should not be made.

Surprised, curious, shocked… none of it. You can only respectfully accept the jade card or flower, and then bow down.

After exiting the main hall, someone will take them away. Those who keep the cards will go home and wait for the final will of marriage, and those who have given flowers will go home and wait for the last will of reward.

Anyway, here, they have no qualifications to express any opinions.

As time passed, the girl from the Tang family that Yao’s fancy came in soon. The girl from the Tang family looked like a heroic child. Although she learned the etiquette well in the palace, when she walked in, her footsteps were more It is still much stronger than others.

Yao Shi was very satisfied and nodded to the Queen, who then smiled and gestured to Celadon, and just like that, Tang Shi was settled.

After that, the family of the general’s family, Lan Clan, walked in. Liu Fang was surprised by that gorgeous face.
