Dingjiangshan

Ning Yan accepted a woman at the palace banquet, and sealed Zhaoyi the next day.I heard that she slept in the Xianyu Hall for half the night and then moved to the main hall. Before dawn, she transformed into the first empress in the harem.

This matter spread from the harem to the front court, like a swift wind, it blew across the entire inner city in the early morning of the next day—it was because Ning Yan's unfeminine image was so deeply rooted in the hearts of the people that Everyone admires the "Jiang Zhaoyi" who won the first prize.

After all, Jiang Xuan successfully moved into the Luoyun Palace and gained a title. This shows that although Ning Yan has a clear attitude, the harem is not a piece of metal. As long as he has the heart, he can always blow the pillow wind.

Those who had thought about it before began to move around again, and those who hadn't thought about it also began to weigh.Except for Ning Yan, countless people didn't sleep well that night.

But it depends on the excitement, and you still have to go to the morning court as usual.

It's just that the fact that the harem has recruited newcomers is probably too exciting, and the ministers even went to court a quarter of an hour earlier than usual.

The sky was slightly bright, and the door of the palace was not opened, so the officials stood in twos and threes at the door to talk.

The few important ministers standing in the front were doing their own thing, and they were under the watchful eyes of the servants in the main hall, so they didn't join together.The officials in the back row were not so scrupulous, and they spoke very casually.Occasionally, when a few people mentioned Shu Qinghui, they all expressed admiration.

"How can I put it another way, he can occupy a high position." The skinny man put his hands in the sleeves of his robe, and said with emotion: "Trying out the holy will is a skill."

"Mr. Shu is not here, the only way for the Shu family is to try to figure out the holy meaning." The young man next to him is not a student of the Shu family. , and hastily sent another one, knowing that this is the prospective empress’s mother’s house, but not knowing, I thought it was someone who searched for the harem for His Majesty—a majestic Yushi Zhongcheng, who is doing the job of selecting servants.”

"Hey, you can't say that." The people around him hurriedly tugged at his sleeves and smoothed things over: "The matter of the harem is related to His Majesty's heirs, and it is also a major event for generations to come—Master Shu and us both It’s for His Majesty’s concern.”

In the presence of a large audience, the young man also knew that what he said was wrong, so he stalked his neck and walked down the steps.

But they were not the only ones discussing Shu Qinghui—although Jiang Xuan entered the palace as a ladder built by the Queen Mother, but in the eyes of outsiders, it is needless to say whose family this woman is from, and whoever benefits from sending her in. .

After all, although the queen mother's mother's family is weak now, but she is backed by her clan, there is really no need to use this method to please her son.

Most of the people arguing about this topic in the back are people who are not qualified to participate in the palace banquet. There seems to be a watershed in the middle of the queue in front of the square. There is a lively chat in the back, but there is no sound at the front and back, and everyone stands upright.

Shu Qinghui, who was at the center of the topic, was too quiet today. He stood silently in his place, lowered his eyes slightly, staring at the gap between the green bricks in front of him, turning a blind eye to the movement behind him, as if he was not the one talking about.

He had such a lifeless character last night, whether it was Jiang Xuan's appearance or being taken away by Ning Yan, he always looked like a wooden stake.

Jiang Xiaohan turned his head to look at him a few times, smiled, and spoke in an unclear manner: "Congratulations, Mr. Shu."

Shu Qinghui finally recovered slowly from that fugue state, he looked up at Jiang Xiaohan, and nodded slowly: "There is no congratulations at all, it is the duty of a subject to share your majesty's worries."

——A dead pig is not afraid of boiling water, Xie Jue thought beside him.

His people went to the northwest before dawn. With the Xie family's face and the means of the northwest defense over there, within half a month, there should be news from the other side.

Why bother to lose the guarantee at the end of the festival, General Xie thought.

Acting for Ruan Yin and secretly bringing Jiang Xuan into the palace, almost embarrassing Ning Yan on the spot—there was no way to hide it afterwards, it was almost like announcing to Ning Yan that he had stood by Ruan Yin's side.So Mr. Shu probably broke the jar and was not going to struggle in front of Ning Yan anymore. He just kept his head down like a tortoise peacefully, avoiding being caught by Ning Yan and making a fuss.

Once Shu Chuan died, how did the Shu family become like this, Xie Jue thought, the momentum was three points higher than that of Jiang Xiaohan's family back then, but now they have become so unpopular, and they can still be taken away by Ruan Yin.

General Xie seldom dealt with civil servants in Beijing on weekdays, and he never thought about the matter. He only thought that Shu Qinghui was a bandit who was tricked and abducted by Lian Meng because of his own fever.

"I still want to congratulate." Jiang Xiaohan straightened his sleeves, so that he could take the time to say: "Your Majesty's harem has accepted a newcomer, but the back seat is still vacant. It is always necessary to get married as soon as possible, so the etiquette can be justified-I will congratulate you in advance Master Shu, I wish you an early dismissal."

Shu Qinghui subconsciously burst into flames, and before he could retort, he realized that Jiang Xiaohan was talking about another "Master Shu" of his family.

If Shu Qiuyu was dismissed, that would actually be a good thing - it meant that she was about to enter the central palace and become a queen.

But Mr. Jiang is a bit wicked from time to time, so if you say a good auspicious word, let him say it like a curse.

And the "Master Shu" in front of him was so angry that he couldn't refute after being scolded.

"Master Jiang, there is no need to be so anxious." After all, Shu Qinghui is still the same Shu Qinghui, even if he wants to hide his tail and pretend to be low-key, he still puts his temper there.He couldn't bear it, so he couldn't help saying: "Since your majesty has reached the crown, you will have to fill the harem in the future, and the daughter of Mr. Jiang's family is still young. If you don't make it, she will serve the king with Qiu'er on that day, so there is no need to congratulate each other when the time comes." gone."

Shu Qinghui spoke in a strange way, intending to poke Jiang Xiaohan's lungs, to remind him that his daughter who is a master of martial arts has long been out of the harem. Who knows that Mr. Jiang does not take the usual way, and after hearing this, instead of feeling jealous, he is quite happy. Happy.

"Then there's no need." Jiang Xiaohan said sincerely: "I never asked her to support the family since I was a child, and I have escaped the temperament of raising her all these years, and I don't know the rules, so I really dare not send her to the palace."

Shu Qinghui: "..."

Is this pointing at the nose and scolding him for selling his daughter?

Shu Qinghui said a few words and lost a few words, so angry that his chest hurts, Xie Jue stood in another row of generals, holding back his laughter very hard.

Fortunately, this kind of unnutritious bickering did not last long. After a cup of tea, it was time to go to court.The door of the hall opened wide, and the officials who were chatting just now fell silent, stood upright, and entered the hall in a line.

Chaoshang was temporarily stable for a while, but the wind of rumors never stopped, blowing fast and meticulously, not to mention people who wanted to inquire, even if they never went to a banquet to go to court, they stayed at home all day long. Even Ning Huaijin, who was late, heard the news.

When he heard the news, he was looking at the ox horn bow on the table in dejection - he missed the only chance to make a shot in this crowning ceremony, so there was no reason to see the light of day again.Even if he and Ning Yan get back together in the future, I'm afraid there is no reason to send him out.

Ning Huaijin felt a little regretful as she touched this bow with warm tentacles.

"—My lord!"

It's a pity that Wei Ji is not very good at watching the occasion, and no matter how the feelings in his heart are overwhelmed, he rushed in from the outside, and washed away the melancholy that Ning Huaijin had finally got together.

"...What's the matter." Ning Huaijin looked up as she spoke, and saw Wei Ji's rosy face, he smiled so hard that his teeth could not see his eyes, he looked like a crumpled peony flower.

Ning Huaijin: "..."

He was silent for a moment, lowered his head and put the bow back into the wooden box, and asked casually, "Are you going to marry a wife?"

"What—" Wei Ji was stunned for a moment, and then said in embarrassment: "It's not the young one who wants to marry a wife, it's Your Majesty!"

With a shake of Ning Huaijin's hands, the horn bow knocked against the edge of the wooden box. He seemed to be startled by the small sound of the collision, and his whole body trembled.

"Oh, why are you still scared?" Wei Ji said, hastily took the bow from his hand, put it away nicely, and closed the lid.

In just a few short breaths, Ning Huaijin had already regained her composure.

"Your Majesty accepted a woman at the palace banquet last night. It is said that she is a distant relative of Mr. Shu's family." Wei Ji didn't notice his brief distraction, and continued on his own: "It was the Queen Mother who decided to choose for Your Majesty, and I don't care about her." Knowing how His Majesty changed his sex this time, he actually agreed—I don’t know what kind of beautiful fairy he is.”

Ning Huaijin suddenly had a very subtle feeling in his heart, but it was not the surprise or joy that he should have - Ning Yan was willing to let go, and wanted to take his mind away from him, which was very important for Ning Huaijin. It's a good thing, and it's also the reason why he and Ning Yan have been fighting each other like two stubborn donkeys.

But probably because it has only been two nights since the last time I argued with Ning Yan, Ning Huaijin's memory still remains on the matter of Ning Yan "struggling with reason" and insisting that he "like him" .So when he first heard the news, he didn't care about relaxing for a while, and first felt an inexplicable emotion for no reason. The feeling was inexplicable, between dazed and lost, very strange.

Ning Huaijin felt a little strange, it didn't hurt or itch, but it made him feel uncomfortable.

"I still heard it from the boy who bought it. He heard it from Mr. Li's servant and the maid who came out to take a break." Wei Ji was still babbling on: "I heard that Miss Jiang is good-looking, Bingxue The same person, but looks a little old-fashioned, and the clothes he wears are heavier than the empress dowager, and I don't know how His Majesty likes them."

The more Ning Huaijin listened, the more uncomfortable she felt, and she always felt that everything was awkward. Just as she wanted him not to talk about the emperor behind his back, Wei Ji went on to say: "But I heard that Miss Jiang is also strange. I asked if I could arrange a place with plum trees, saying that I like plum blossoms. Your lord, you also know that there are no plum blossoms in the palace other than the plum tree outside the window of His Majesty. —”

Ning Huaijin finally felt something was wrong, he frowned and asked, "What did you say?"

Wei Ji was interrupted by him unexpectedly, not knowing which sentence he said was wrong, he blinked and hesitated: "Plum blossom..."

"No." Ning Huaijin said, "Before, who did you say sent her to His Majesty?"

"It's the Empress Dowager." Wei Ji said.
