Five-year enthronement three-year simulation

Ming Tan stepped into the main entrance of Kunning Palace, and when he saw the woman sitting there, he was stunned for two seconds on the spot.

She was stunned for a moment, stepped back a few steps like a conditioned reflex, looked up at the plaque carefully, and after confirming that she had gone the right way, she smiled shyly, "Greetings to Concubine Yi..."

Concubine Yi, Empress Hua Rong, this is an old acquaintance of the Empress.

Ever since Ming Tan was "punished to kneel" in front of the Tianhong Palace last time and was rescued by the other party, she gradually became close to him, and even went to the latter's palace many times to thank him for tea.

Not long after, the two sides came and went, and she was very familiar with this lady who was born in the general family. When she was a guest in Lin's mansion a few days ago, she specially asked for a copy of "The Art of War of the Hua Family" and gave it to Lin Xun As a meeting gift.

"Tan'er is free."

Sitting quietly in the main hall of Kunning Palace, Hua Rong raised her head, looked at her indifferently, and said with pursed lips: "Your mother will come soon."

As soon as the words fell, before Ming Tan could reply, Gu Ying hurried out of the inner hall, frowning tightly, and said in her mouth: "Ayu, if it is really the words of Concubine Wan to His Majesty, wouldn't it be—"

Halfway through speaking, she saw Ming Tan in a blink of an eye, and was taken aback, "Tan'er is back?"

Ming Tan frowned, heard the empress's words clearly, and asked very sensitively: "What did the empress say? What did Concubine Wan say?"

"..."

The queen looked at her daughter, then at Concubine Yi who was drinking tea calmly, and sighed helplessly: "I told you earlier, don't ask her to come back, you just won't listen..."

"Tan'er is grown up, and she should be made aware of these dirty tricks in the palace."

Hua Rong put down the teacup, and said lightly: "What's more, after the Seventh Princess entered the study, she and Tan'er were very friendly...Tao Zhi'er, you shouldn't hide this matter because of love and reason. she."

The queen shook her head and sighed, hesitated to speak, "I'm also afraid..."

The Seventh Princess Mingyu is the daughter of noble man Jing, she has a quiet temperament and loves to read, and she is exceptionally beautiful.When Ming Tan was a guest at Rui Lanxuan, he had a good chat with her.

Later, the other party turned ten years old, and after entering the study, Ming Tan also had a good relationship with her, and often got together with Ming Zhao, who had graduated from the study, and took this Seventh Sister to wander around the palace.

At this time, hearing Hua Rong mention her, and then thinking of the "marriage of a certain Highness" that the little maid said, Ming Tan immediately had an ominous premonition, and suddenly he couldn't care about the concubine Wan, and hurried to the queen. Asked: "Mother, what happened to Seventh Sister?"

The queen was still a little hesitant, it could be seen that Ming Tan's expression was tense, he hesitated for a while, and finally sighed deeply.

"This time when Qiang Mi came to see him, the Great Chanyu of Gerkuhan specially sent their prince as an envoy. In fact, he wanted to ask for a princess to marry me, and we will be married to each other for a hundred years."

The queen said: "At yesterday's dinner, after the prince presented the tribute, he personally raised this matter to His Majesty... After your father considered it for a long time, he finally agreed to marry, but because of the rush of time, he has not yet decided where it will be." A princess is going to be married."

Staring at Ming Tan's sudden change of expression, the queen's heart softened, and she sighed softly, "The queen mother discussed with your brother, and felt that this matter was really difficult to tell, so she didn't inform you in time."

princess and kiss...

Ming Tan bit his lip, and immediately pinched his fingertips in the palm of his hand.

She could understand the reason why the queen mother and third brother didn't tell her - this topic was too heavy for every princess.

As if seeing Ming Tan's uneasiness, Hua Rong and the queen looked at each other, thought for a while, but still chose to continue talking.

"Although it was not decided yesterday who will go to Qiangmi to get married, just this morning, there was a sudden news from Tianhong Palace: Concubine Wan went to see His Majesty early in the morning, and specially recommended a marriage partner to him. The choice of relatives - is the Seventh Princess Ming Wei."

Ming Tan subconsciously held his breath.

"As Concubine Wan said, that Prince Qiangmi is not very old, has a noble status, and has a handsome appearance; while the Seventh Princess Mingyu has been a celestial figure since she was a child, and she is only four years younger than the prince, which is just right. The two are truly a match made in heaven..."

"Therefore, she suggested: why not take advantage of the opportunity of the prince's coming to court and directly make an appointment for the marriage," Hua Rong continued, "Just wait a few years, and Ming will be old enough to send the seventh princess to Qiangmi to get married. In this way, Everyone is happy."

The queen nodded slightly, with a sympathetic tone in her tone.

"Besides, Concubine Song Gui made a mistake before and was reduced to a promise. The sixth prince has already passed under the name of Jing Guiren... Concubine Wan Guifei means that even if her daughter marries far away, she will be accompanied by the sixth prince. It's too lonely, it's more appropriate to let Ming Yan go to make a kiss..."

Ming Tan frowned, his mind was full of thoughts, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

That pretty girl who loves to read, who looks a little like Lin Shurong, is going to marry to a distant grassland?

She had mixed feelings in her heart, but she still harbored the last bit of hope, and asked eagerly: "Then, father, he..."

"Your Majesty agrees."

The queen sighed deeply, shattering Ming Tan's last hope, "Half an hour ago, Mrs. Jing came to Kunning Palace to ask for an audience. I hope that this Palace can help me and ask Your Majesty to take it back."

"I understand her motherly love, but there are not many princesses of the right age in the palace. In addition, Concubine Wan personally recommended her, and His Majesty has already agreed... Sigh, even if she came to ask for help, I would not be able to help you." It’s just as helpless.”

There are indeed not many princesses in the palace.

After careful calculation, apart from those who were married and those who passed away, there were only four people left.

Among them, the nine princesses, Ming Tan, are the youngest. She is not only the daughter of the central palace, but also the emperor's favorite child. It is definitely not her turn to make a kiss.

The fourth princess Mingxiao is the daughter of Concubine Ning. Even though Zhu’s father and daughter are down, the centipede is dead but not stiff—Zhu’s still has influence in the capital, and now the two brothers and sisters Mingxuan and Mingxiao are most regarded as the backbone However, if the four princesses are sent to get married, there is no guarantee that they will not be backlashed by them-this is by no means good news for the unstable household department that has just undergone a major cleansing.

After such elimination, only the third princess Ming Zhao and the seventh princess Ming Wei are left.

And comparing the two, the third princess Mingzhao has just reached the age of Ji this year, and she is one year older than Prince Qiangmi, and the concubine's background is not glorious enough, it is really not suitable...

That being the case, the heavy responsibility of getting married naturally fell on Ming Wei's shoulders.No wonder the emperor would agree.

Recalling the appearance of Mrs. Jing who was so desperate that she burst into tears just now, Hua Rong couldn't help but let out a long sigh, and said pitifully: "Shen Ruofu spoke beautifully, but who doesn't know that Mingye only has Song Guifei as his mother and concubine in his heart? Only This biological daughter of Mingyu is Jinggui's only lifeline, she has been hiding it in her palm for ten years, but now she still cannot escape this catastrophe..."

"Perhaps Concubine Wan's move is due to Concubine Ning's handwriting." The queen said, "No matter how you say it, it is possible that the choice of the relatives will fall on the head of the fourth princess... After all, she owes the Zhu family something, Since there will be no loss, why don't you help me casually, and get rid of some old grudges."

She analyzed rationally for a while, then turned her head slightly, seeing that Ming Tan was still in a daze for a long time without saying a word, she couldn't help but feel a sudden soreness in her heart.

"That's all. If the matter has never happened to me, how can I know the sadness and suffering of others..."

The queen walked slowly to her daughter, put her arms in her arms, and sighed deeply: "In any case, if my son marries far away, the queen mother will cry every day. She would rather hang herself with a rope than suffer The pain of being separated from the flesh and blood..."

Hua Rong frowned, threw the teacup on the table with a "crack", and said angrily, "Taozhier! Say something unlucky!"

"...the queen mother, don't talk about this," Ming Tan also pursed his lips, stretched out his hand to gently stroke the queen's temples, and said in a low voice, "Tan'er is also reluctant to part with you, father, and my native land. "

"--yes."

Just at this time, a human voice suddenly came from outside the hall, sighing: "How can I be willing to let Longlin marry far away?"

The three of them were all taken aback, and hurriedly got up and saluted: "See Your Majesty!"

"Exemption." The emperor stepped into the hall and glanced at Hua Rong, "It turns out that Concubine Yi is also there."

Hua Rong blessed him, "The concubine came to talk to the empress."

"Yeah. Before Zitong married into the East Palace, she was Jinlan's friend with you." The emperor nodded slightly, "After you enter the palace, it is also a good thing to have more contact with her on weekdays."

"Yes."

Hua Rong responded lightly, with no expression of joy or anger on her face.

The emperor didn't look at her again, but turned his eyes to Ming Tan, seeing the latter's gloomy expression, he couldn't help sighing: "Are you talking about marriage?"

Ming Tan lowered his eyes, turned his head away, and said sullenly: "En."

Although she knew that it was the best choice to send the Seventh Princess to marry because of emotion and reason, but whenever she thought of Ming Ye's smiling face like a flower, she felt a slight pain in her heart.

Dedicating marriages for the benefit of the royal family...is this the fate that princesses cannot escape?

What about herself?

"..."

Ming Tan felt as if she was carrying a heavy mountain on her back, crushing her bones and waist, she was almost out of breath, and her complexion became more and more gray.

Seeing his daughter like this, the emperor was obviously very distressed.He reached out and patted Ming Tan's hair, as if he wanted to say something, but he was speechless for a long time.

There was silence in the hall.

After a while, the queen was the first to speak, and asked in a warm voice: "Your Majesty is coming to Kunning Palace, but what do you want to talk to my concubine about?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Ming Tan felt the palm on his head suddenly stop, and looked up suspiciously, only to see the emperor staring at him with complicated eyes.

"..."

Ming Tan's heart skipped a beat, and a strong uneasiness filled the air again.

"I'm here this time, and I really have something to say."

The emperor put down his hands, although he was speaking to the queen, his eyes never left Ming Tan for a moment, and he sighed slightly.

"Just now, nobleman Caiying came to me to ask for a favor."

With a calm tone, he paused word by word: "She said that the seventh princess is too young, she is still at the age of studying, if she marries to the grassland, she will inevitably be despised by others because of her ignorance, and on the contrary, she will fall into my heavenly reputation."

"Therefore, Mrs. Ying took the initiative to propose: I am willing to let my daughter, the third princess Ming Zhao, who is more suitable than Ming Wei, go to make peace with Qiang Mi."

Before the words fell, the queen couldn't help but was shocked and said: "What? She asked her daughter to marry her?"

Although Hua Rong had no heirs, her eyes widened in astonishment, and she couldn't help muttering: "This is completely unheard of...how could she be so cruel..."

Ming Tan only felt that the blood in his body was cooling down inch by inch.

The chill spread from the bone marrow, and gradually covered her whole body, as if she was in an impenetrable block of ice, and even breathing seemed to be difficult.

"...In the previous spring exams, when Sister Zhaozhao got a good rank, she didn't ask for a reward for herself. Instead, she asked for a small kitchen for her because she was worried about Mrs. Ying's health."

Her tone was clearly very light, but it made the three people around her look intolerable.

Ming Tan raised his eyes, heard his own voice, and asked tremblingly: "Father, can you tell me, how can there be a mother in this world who is willing to marry her daughter away?"

"..."

After a long silence, the emperor met Ming Tan's gaze, shook his head, and did not directly answer her question.

"Mr. Ying understands righteousness and sets an example for the Six Palaces. I am very pleased. She has been promoted as Concubine Ying. Tomorrow, I will issue an edict to announce to the whole palace—"

At this moment, as if a basin of ice water had been poured over his head, Ming Tan only felt his throat choked up, and couldn't help but let out an unbelievably miserable laugh.

"Ying, concubine?" She asked word by word, "Is this the reason why she sells her daughter for glory?"

The emperor didn't care about the disrespect in her words, but squatted down halfway.Turning around, looking at Ming Tan at the same level, he said solemnly: "...Longlin. You listen to what the father said."

"In this palace, there are countless people who are desperately trying to climb up. They can sacrifice everything, even sacrifice others, just to gain a little bit of power and let themselves live better."

"You won't marry far away this time because your father, queen and queen are powerful enough to protect you; but if you are not strong enough, you will be like you are now, unable to do anything but watch your friend marry far away in the grassland --what should I do?"

Ming Tan's nails dug hard into the palm of his hand.

The emperor looked at her and said indifferently: "Longlin, you are a princess. You must know what to do, right?"

"……Correct."

Ming Tan gritted his teeth, trying his best to suppress the tremor in his voice.

"I see, father."

She is a princess.

Born in the harem, one is destined to face all kinds of open and dark arrows, and is in danger of being put in a desperate situation at any time.

And amidst the turbulence and treachery, only by holding enough power and ability can she resist the established destiny, influence other people's decisions, and reverse the critical situation——

Only then can we escort the loved ones, so that they can all enjoy a life of stability.
