[Rebirth] Sovereign and ministers get along

The copy was left in the imperial study for three days. On the ninth day of May, the regent Wang Yuezhen made it clear at the court meeting: The emperor will be [-] years old, and he has reached the age of marriage. In order to choose the empress and concubine for the emperor.

Everyone knows that the candidate for the queen must be selected from the eldest daughter of the Lian family, the third daughter of the Yao family, the second daughter of the Yin family, the eldest daughter of the Su family, and the eldest granddaughter of the Geng family. From these few families, the legitimate daughters of other families just fight for the position of concubine.

In terms of family background, the eldest granddaughter of the Geng family has the most advantage; in terms of power, the third daughter of the Yao family has the most advantage.

For the former, his grandfather was one of the three assistant political scholars, who was in charge of Geng Liangshen of the Ministry of Officials. The Geng family was similar to the Shen family. In that way, during the reign of Emperor Taizu Qing, a dark history that has been indelible for several dynasties was left behind.

The latter, after Zhongliang, the general's daughter, Zhongzheng's mansion is also the home of the regent's mother-in-law. The old lady of the Yao family has the grace of life for the regent. General Yao Ding'an and the regent are really brothers.

There is no need to worry about the upbringing and character of these two girls, it's just...

Shen Lanqing was guarding Yue Yu's side. Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at the regent Yue Xun and the second-ranked scholar Geng Liangshen, but these two probably had no intention of letting their cousins ​​and granddaughters compete for the position of concubine.

Here, Shen Lanqing, who has the memories of her previous life, is not surprised. What puzzles Shen Lanqing is: If nothing goes wrong, the Holy One will marry one concubine and two concubines in the coming year.

In the previous life, the Holy Majesty accepted his concubine's concubine into the palace as a concubine in the second year after his wedding. That time he had a cold attack, and the Holy Majesty even visited him in the Duke's mansion in person. He will never remember it wrong.

This is a good time, and after finally persuading the grandfather with his father to agree to start marriage negotiations for the second sister, such a branch was born out of the festival.

"God's will is unpredictable. Yesterday, he released the intention to discuss marriage with your second sister. Today, the regent made such a decree..." The pattern embroidered on Shen Shuo's uniform has changed from a small miscellaneous flower with a diameter of one inch and five. Became a small single flower with a diameter of three inches, and was promoted from the second rank to the left servant of the household department, but he didn't look old. Only the Yao family entrusted the matchmaker to hand over the share, but it was for the second master of his family's concubines to marry him, if not..."

"Father, it's better for us to wait and see what happens..." Shen Lanqing supported Shen Shuo's arm and entered the second door, "The court has clearly issued a decree, even if there is a suitable family, we must not do anything to deceive the emperor .”

"Father, I really didn't expect your second sister to have such deep thoughts..." Shen Shuo frowned slightly, "Even if the daughter of the Shen family enters the palace, she must not compete for favor and keep an heir. With that kind of thought, if she is allowed to enter the palace to stir up wind and rain again, she will personally blame Huifengtang Shen."

If the sister-in-law entered the palace, it would indeed be a disaster for the Shen family, but Shen Lanqing still comforted her father with gentle words: "Father, you don't need to worry, this time it is mainly for the emperor to choose a concubine, and it is unlikely that you want to come to concubines and nobles. "

"I hope so, if not..." Shen Shuo paused for a moment, his smile slightly subsided, "I really don't want to take that step as a father."

65 years ago, the daughter of the Shen family who entered the palace at the right age to serve Emperor Sejong was a high-minded woman who wanted to be the lord of the harem. As a result, her fortune was poor and her life was short, and she fell ill three days before entering the palace.

This is also recorded in the handwritten notes of the previous Huifengtang Shen clan heads that his father showed him after he was crowned.

Looking closely at his father, he still had a gentle smile and a calm cloud.

However, Shen Lanqing saw a hint of helplessness in his father's eyes, and he slid his hand down to hold his father's warm palm, and couldn't help suggesting: "If it's true... why don't my son find a prescription for preventing pregnancy from Yishan..."

Hearing the hidden meaning in Shen Lanqing's words, Shen Shuo's smile froze on his face.

He knew that his son had an idea since he was a child, but he didn't expect it to be so.

He didn't know whether Shen Lanqing was talented and intelligent, and he made this suggestion because he heard the unfinished meaning in his words; or because he was born with such a heartless character, how could his concubine sister not be taken into consideration at all.

If the former is fine, it's Shen's luck, if the latter... There is no such thing as a single plank, it is good to be an official and the eldest son to have the means, but it is so unfeeling...

Looking sharply at Shen Lanqing for a long time, he could only see clarity and worry in his eyes, Shen Shuo sighed: "Let's discuss this matter at that time."

"Brother Lan, you came up with such a plan when you were thirteen years old, and you will use it on your concubine sister without hesitation... Do you want to be a job tomorrow?"

"My son will take a six-day rest tomorrow." As a guard, he is on duty for six days and rests for six days.

Shen Shuo nodded, brushing away Shen Lanqing's hand that was supporting him: "So, you can reflect on yourself in the ancestral hall these few days."

"Yes."

"Let's go now."

"Yes."

To put it bluntly, Shen Lanqing looks like he has no complaints, he respectfully obeys his father's order, and is willing to accept the punishment. To put it bluntly, Shen Lanqing is like a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water, and it seems that he doesn't take going to the ancestral hall for introspection at all. , but he just put on an air of obedience that you can't find fault with.

Shen Shuo couldn't help stretching out his hand, and poked Shen Lanqing's eyebrows with his fingertips: "Kneel for two hours every day, never miss a moment, copy the Analects of Confucius Liren a hundred times, and don't miss a single word."

"Yes."

"Hmph!" Shen Shuo snorted coldly, flung his sleeves and left, Shen Lanqing touched the tip of his nose, and went directly to the ancestral hall.

When Shen Lanqing arrived at the ancestral hall, Shen Yi had already prepared the pen, ink, paper and inkstone for him, and began to grind the ink for him.

Shen Lanqing raised her eyebrows: "Shen Yi, are you happy that I was punished?"

"No." Shen Yi did not raise his head, and rubbed the ink seriously.

"Shen Yi, although I don't have a book boy, the Shen family doesn't have a maid..." Shen Lanqing picked up a pen and dipped in the ink, and sure enough, Shen Yimo's ink was the one he liked the most, with a smile in his eyes, "It's still the two of Qingyun and Yueyue." The girl can't even grind ink?"

Shen Yi's hand rubbing the ink paused for a moment, and then returned to normal.

Shen Lanqing sighed after swiping his pen over the Liren Chapter: "Shen Yi, you don't need to do these small things, you can't let those girls who serve me stop working for white-collar monthly money."

"I can't be punished with you." I had no choice but to grind ink for you.

"..." Shen Lanqing put the written page on the opposite side, "If that's the case, you can copy it with me, Xueying grinds the ink."

Shen Yi stared blankly at the "beautiful as a flower" Xueying, moved to the opposite of Shen Lanqing, and began to copy, as if he had regained the feeling he had when he was ravaged by the wonderful master together in Kunlun Mountains.

The Liren chapter has 27 chapters in total, 620 words. Shen Yi copied a line, then raised his head and glanced at Shen Lanqing. Not to mention just copying a book, even if you find a painter to paint my portrait, you don't need to look at me as often as you do."

Shen Yi pursed his lips, turned his face away, and his ears were slightly red: "Liuying and the others are too weak, you have read all the books in Xuantianjiao's library, and I want to ask if you can silently give them some exercises. "

"Oh." Shen Lanqing stared at Shen Yi, gave an inexplicable ooh, lowered his eyes, and said unhurriedly, "On the first day of being punished, you have to be more honest..."

"...Tomorrow, after I have tested and taught them some skills, I will silently give them some skills. By the way, I will also silently teach a few exercises from other sects to bribe my father..."

"Xueying, how many pages of my silent book have been stained with ink?"

"Back to the master, three pages."

"Very good, for the next three months, you will be on duty for me for Cha Xiang and the other four."

Tea fragrance, piano fragrance, inkstone fragrance, and ink fragrance are the first-class maids specially selected by Mrs. Shen to Guiyuan. Apart from serving Shen Lanqing's daily life, she is also preparing to be a housemaid for Shen Lanqing. One waits one at a time.

However, compared to Xue Ying, her appearance was still a bit worse.

Xueying's skeleton is smaller than that of people of the same age, which is caused by drinking medicine during the few months when he was sold as a young girl. If it hadn't been seen by the priest of Shen's family who went to seek pleasure, he loved his martial arts qualifications and bought him a belt If you go to Zhuangzi to practice martial arts, maybe the name of Young Master Lanyue will be overshadowed by him.

Just by looking at Xue Ying's stiff posture, one could tell that he was thinking wrong.

From the corner of the eye, he glanced at the ink dripping from the tip of Shen Yi's pen on the paper, and Shen Lanqing looked at Xueying calmly, and gradually withdrew his smile: "You don't want to?"

Shen Lanqing's expression that seemed to be a smile but not a smile ran into Xueying's heart, and she suddenly slammed, and the blush gradually dyed her red and pale face: "Xueying dare not."

"Very well, let's start tonight."

"Yes."

The next day, Yinzheng.

Shen Lanqing was changed by Xueying, washed and refreshed.

Xueying lost the uneasiness of yesterday, and with a frozen face like a flower, she followed behind Shen Lanqing step by step.

In the yard, Shen Yi sat with his legs bent under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree and stared at the main room, the dew condensed on the broken hair on his forehead, the mist wet his shoulders and his clothes, his rough and expressionless face was tense.

Through Shen Yi's eyes, Shen Lanqing seemed to see a wounded beast, and his heart was slightly turbulent.

In the end it was wrong.

The fault was not in Shen Yi's thoughts, nor in his pretentious gesture of using Xueying to kill Shen Yi.

If it is really wrong, it can only be said that God's will is wrong. Xuantian taught so many normal people, but the master teacher arranged for him such a wonderful master. During the seven years on the mountain, the master and Mr. Bai spared no effort to show their love.

It is hard for Shen Yi, a stubborn person who regards him as his life, not to have such thoughts.

"Sitting here all night? Don't want to grab the shadow waiter after finishing the girl's job."

"Because I'm not a shadow waiter?"

"Shen Yi, you are my senior brother."

Shen Yi lowered his eyes, pursed his lips, and looked away slightly.

Shen Lanqing's palm fell on Shen Yi's head, and wiped off the wet dew: "Go take a bath and sleep."

Shen Yi grabbed the hand that Shen Lanqing wanted to take back, and clenched it until the joints turned white. Then he got up expressionlessly, shook his head slightly, and stubbornly expressed his rejection. As for what he refused, only he knew in his heart.

Shen Lanqing was in a slightly upset mood, so she suffered from six Shadow Attendants.

The original intention was just to show off the aptitude and skills of a few people, but after the aptitude and skills were tested, Shen Lanqing still didn't intend to stop.

Qingyun and Yueyue are fine, but Liu, Feng, Hui, and Xue were ravaged by Shen Lanqing to the point of losing their image. They lay on the ground for half an hour before getting up, and were ravaged by Shen Yi again. Xueying was honored to get Take extra care.

Shen Lanqing continued to reflect on himself in the ancestral hall, while Shen Yi was sent by him to teach the six shadow attendants to learn kung fu.

He piled up the stacks of exercises that he planned to bribe his father, and was sorting out the Liren articles that had been silent for the past few days, when there was movement at the entrance of the ancestral hall, he raised his eyes, and a red shadow entered through the door.

With phoenix eyes, beautiful nose, red lips, melon-seeded face, the concubine-colored breast-length skirt is swaying and graceful, and the ring is graceful.

The second young lady of the Shen family concubine had seventy percent similarities to Shen Lanqing's eyebrows, and was more like Shen Lanqing's sister than the eldest lady of the Shen family.

He stood gracefully at the door, looking at Shen Lanqing, Gu Pan couldn't restrain his brows with pride: "The nanny in the Queen Mother's Palace just came here, Brother Lan, my concubine's daughter has also fallen into the Queen Mother's eyes. "

"So what?" Shen Lanqing smiled calmly, "I don't know how many noble daughters are, and the second sister thinks that the queen mother wants to make you a queen or make you a concubine?"

"Or, the second sister thinks that the queen mother will accept a few concubines and confer honors on the day the emperor marries the concubine?"

"Whether it's a queen, a concubine, or a concubine, it's just the first rank, and no one can guarantee that he can sit still for a lifetime. As long as he enters that palace gate, brother Lan knows that I will definitely not be able to enter the eyes of the Holy One." ?”

"Second Sister, don't forget that your surname is Shen. It is a good thing for a person to be self-motivated, but one must not lose self-knowledge. Otherwise, it is a disaster for the upper body, and it is a crime for the family to be affected."

"Brother Lan, you are worrying too much. I only heard that the concubine favored my father and grandparents, but I never heard that her daughter's favor in the harem turned into a disaster for the family..." The second lady of the Shen family chuckled, "Brother Lan and Don't worry, Second Sister can earn you a lifetime of wealth even if you can't get back the monstrous glory."

"..." Never thought that he left Beijing at the age of six, and his eldest sister got married the next year, leaving only the concubine in the family, no one to compare with, which made her lose the humility of the previous concubine, and her heart was even stronger. I don't know how much taller than the concubine sister in the previous life. If she has such a temperament, it is not a blessing to enter the palace.

Moreover, it is obvious that the second sister is not listening to persuasion.

He intends to make people avoid going astray, but he can't help people's thoughts: "The Shen family is very good now, my brother's fortune is poor, and I can't help getting richer."
