Zhuo Qihua

The crown prince and King Qi were shocked, the queen mother, the noble concubine...all of them were shocked.Mingyu: "You want to see me, Shunxi?"

He Huan: "When I was young, I grew up in Beigu... When I was seven years old, Tarkin invaded, the boy suddenly had a high fever, and when he was dying, he was sent to the emergency room. Yes, by the way, I treated the boy of."

As soon as He Huan mentioned the past, the prince gasped, "It's you?"

He Huan looked up, he didn't have much memory of the prince.What is most vivid in his memory is the gentle, caring companion who made him feel a different kind of love when he lost his mother since he was a child.It's just that he didn't know the identity of the other party at that time. When he was 12 years old, his grandfather took him back to the capital to study. During a conversation between his grandfather and his father, he accidentally learned that the gentle brother who had been in Beigu to treat the wounded was always cherished in his heart. , It turned out to be Shun Yu.From then on, it became He Huan's obsession to want to meet each other.

Emperor Yong'an asked the prince, "Do you recognize him?"

Prince: "At that time, a brother Miao, who was about the same age as my son, was sent here. He was said to have been burned out and convulsed. It's just that my son was in the logistics at that time, so I didn't see him."

King Qi was still young at that time, so he couldn't remember this plot clearly.

Emperor Yong'an: "Is your father He Dongqing?"

He Huan: "It's my father."

Emperor Yong'an immediately understood why He Huan was in Beigu when he was young.At this time, Huang Guixie asked, "Is the current Mrs. He your biological mother?"

He Huan: "When the boy was one year old, his biological mother passed away."

When the princess heard it, she was right.He Dongqing's current wife is said to be a continuation.

He Dongqing is a general in Beigu, and his biological mother's background is not high.It can be said that the He family can be regarded as an upstart among generals.He Guangzu and his three sons all made great achievements in the battle against Tarkin's tribe.Later He Guangzu followed Pan Beigu to pacify Nanyue, and the He family gained a firm foothold in the army.He Guangzu is a staunch reformist, and now he can become a minister of the military department, which shows his ability.As the son of He Guangzu, He Dongqing followed Pan Beigu to defend Zhongzhou.

He Huan is the elder brother of Mao. After he was 12 years old, he was taken back to the capital by He Guangzu to receive education in the capital.He Huan grew up in Beigu since he was a child, and what he saw every day were swords, guns and sticks, and sand tables of the art of war.After returning to Beijing, He Huan first studied in the Imperial College, and later various royal academies were established, so he applied for the Royal Military Academy without hesitation.He Huan lost his mother since he was a child, and he is an older brother, and his father is a general, so he couldn't take care of his young heart that needed fatherly love and motherly love.The following year, He Dongqing continued.The stepmother was neither good nor bad to He Huan. He Huan was the elder brother and could not threaten her future son to inherit the family business.That year, the Mata country fought against the Talkin tribe, and His Majesty led the expedition. He Guangzu and his three sons were military generals, and they were fighting outside. Mrs. Fang was frightened, so she sent someone to look for Yao Daqian, and when she learned that Yao Daqian was with the army in the emergency room, Madam He hurriedly sent He Huan to the emergency room.

Thanks to He Huan's fate, he happened to meet Zhuo Ji.He Huan had pneumonia, Zhuo Ji first scolded the person who sent him here, and then took Bai Shitong and Wei Yingshi to emergency treatment.After 20 days of treatment, He Huan recovered his life.During this period, Zhuo Ji also knew about He Huan's life experience. He felt sorry for this young child who lost his mother, so he left him in his tent to take care of him.Before Emperor Yong'an went to the emergency room to pick up Zhuo Ji, He Huan had just been discharged from the hospital for a few days.

When He Huan was picked up by his family, he cried heartbreakingly.Everyone who saved their lives in the emergency department, especially those rescued by Zhuo Ji himself, burst into tears when they were discharged from the hospital.He Huan was taken back home, and he never saw that beautiful, kind and gentle Uncle "Zhao" again.Many years later, it was not until He Huan returned to the capital that he overheard his grandfather chatting with his father again. When he mentioned this matter, he knew that that beautiful and gentle person was not surnamed Zhao, but His Majesty's most beloved harem Your lord, let me please.

Knowing what happened, Emperor Yong'an's complexion improved a lot, and he said, "Get up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." He Huan, who was in a cold sweat, stood up calmly and stepped aside.Emperor Yong'an said to him, and also to everyone in the house: "Shun's treatment of the wounded in Beigu is to show that my royal family is close to the people, and that I love the people like a son. But after all, he is my servant and a nobleman in the harem." Lord, it is inevitable that people will criticize you, so I have not announced it. By the way, I saved your life, and you are predestined with him. You want to see him, so if you see him, what are you going to do?"

There was excitement in He Huan's eyes, and he said: "I want to kowtow to you, thank you for saving my life. I want to tell you that I will live up to my high expectations and be a useful person to the country. people!"

"Hehe," Emperor Yong'an looked at his mother with a smile, "It seems that Shun Yu would say those words."

The Queen Mother nodded.

Huang Guixie and the others immediately had a different impression of He Huan.Whether He Huan is telling lies, whether he is using this to win His Majesty's favor, they can still tell.

Emperor Yong'an did not say whether he would allow He Huan to see Zhuo Ji, but looked at the four brothers who had not been introduced by the queen mother, and the queen mother took advantage of the situation and said, "This is..."

After the queen mother introduced the prince and all the concubines and attendants who were candidates for King Qi, she let them go.Zhaoyan, Chunyan, Jinyan, Concubine Wen, Concubine Xiao, Concubine Zhuang and Concubine Jing found an excuse and went back to the palace first.Shen Gu asked all the servants in the house to go out, only she was left behind, even the personal palace servants of the royal concubine and the concubine all retreated.Obviously, His Majesty met those people in person, so he naturally had something to discuss with the Empress Dowager, Huang Guixie and Deguixie.

After all the idlers went out, Emperor Yong'an asked his two sons directly: "What do you two think?"

The prince first said: "I think that He Huan is not bad."

Emperor Yong'an: "He's Brother Lao."

The crown prince said: "It's just that it's not easy for Brother Miao to conceive, it's not that he can't give birth. Even if he can't give birth for a while, there will still be a side concubine. However, I feel that this Liu Huiru should be a daughter with high self-esteem. I would like to bow down to others." The implication is that even if it is a side concubine, the crown prince will not consider Liu Huiru.Huang Guixie didn't expect her son to miss Liu Huiru.

The Empress Dowager said: "The emperor, the candidates for the Crown Princess and Princess Qi must be reasonable, gentle and virtuous. But if the Crown Prince and Chen Mu like it, that's even better. Although it's not easy for the elder brother to get pregnant, the noble concubine Didn't Deguixie give birth to two children? Shunxie conceived by accident. There are so many panacea in the palace, if the crown prince really likes He Huan, let Hu Pengju show He Huan, what should be supplemented, what should be Conditioning and conditioning. He Huan likes to dance with guns and sticks, so he must be in good health."

Your Majesty and his son must have made up their minds in this situation.Emperor Yong'an didn't say whether he agreed or disagreed, he looked at his second son: "Chen Mu, what about you? Do you have a favorite?"

King Qi said: "Father, my son thinks that Yuan Jiamin has a good temper. Brother Huang doesn't like people who are too lively, and my son is just the opposite."

Emperor Yong'an turned to the prince: "You don't like people who are too lively?"

Even the noble concubine was astonished.

Prince: "If you are too lively, you will not be stable enough. My ministers usually have a lot of things to do, and the princess should be careful and be decisive when encountering problems. Don't think too much about the affairs of the back house."

Emperor Yong'an understood that the crown prince still took Zhuo Ji as his example, perhaps in his heart, the crown prince liked Brother Mao more.Then Liu Huiru may be reasonable, gentle and virtuous, but when he showed affection for Yuan Jiamin just now, Liu Huiru still couldn't hold back.And Emperor Yong'an actually liked He Huan more, not for anything else, because of He Huan's thoughts on Zhuo Ji.As long as the princess does not make any serious mistakes, she will be the queen in the future.It is better to be grateful to Zhuo Ji than to have nothing to do with Zhuo Ji.

The queen mother said: "He Huan was originally a candidate for the prince's maid."

Huang Guixie: "Zhaoyou knows how to advance and retreat, and knows how to measure."

Emperor Yong'an said before that He Huan was a bit like Zhaoyi, and what Huang Guixie said also showed that he was satisfied with He Huan.Emperor Yong'an turned to his second son again: "Your brother Xijing, how about you? You like Huobo?"

King Qi said: "My son is still young, and he is too knowledgeable and polite. My son always feels as if he is facing his elder brother or sister."

"Hahaha..." The elders in the room all laughed.

Emperor Yong'an smiled and asked: "Then, do you have any favorites for the others?"

King Qi shook his head: "No. Father, if you decide on the concubine first, the side concubine is not in a hurry. If the side concubine is someone who likes to compete for favor or has a lot of thoughts, my son and minister are also afraid of restlessness in the back house."

Emperor Yong'an nodded in agreement, and said with deep meaning: "Indeed. Your concubine should be aggressive, and not be too petty. Do you have a favorite prince, side concubine?"

Crown Prince: "If the Crown Princess has never conceived after marriage, then decide on a side concubine."

That means he doesn't like anyone else.

Emperor Yong'an looked at Huang Guixie and Deguixie: "Where are you two?"

Your Majesty: "Your Majesty is more considerate than your servants, and your servants listen to your Majesty."

De Guixie: "The servants also listen to your majesty."

Emperor Yong'an looked at the queen mother again, and the queen mother said: "Prince Princess and Princess Qi are still liked by the Crown Prince and Chen Mu. Although the conditions of those two are not the best, they are worth the eyes of the Crown Prince and Chen Mu. It's just the two of them who are easy to get along with."

Emperor Yong'an: "Then I will issue an order to the cabinet."

"Thank you, Father."

After finalizing the candidates for the Crown Princess and Princess Qi, Emperor Yong'an will return to Xiangfu Palace first.The crown prince also accompanied his mother and father back to Huayang Palace, and King Qi accompanied his mother and father back to Yunyue Palace. They will also attend the family banquet in the palace later.

Where the candidate lived, Yuan Jiamin soon realized she was being sidelined.After Liu Huiru came back, she started reading and didn't talk to anyone.Zhou Zhixing couldn't help but stingingly said to the other girls: "Some people are really not prudent. If they want to go to sea, then why choose a concubine. I think it's just a means to attract His Majesty's attention."

Yuan Jiamin rolled her eyes, got up and went out, too lazy to listen to those harsh words.She was a candidate for the crown prince's side concubine, so she didn't know what Zhou Zhixing was anxious about.The daughters of these families, who have to choose concubines in the palace, have imperial orders in their families, and those who have daughters and elder brothers of the right age must bring their children into the palace.Not to mention her, even her old mother didn't expect her to be selected (candidate).Anyway, she was just going through the motions.Yuan Jiamin hummed "Lovesickness" and took a walk outside the house.After walking a few steps, he saw He Huan who also came out.The two looked at each other from a distance, and suddenly Yuan Jiamin let out a laugh: "You also come out to 'breathe'?"

Obviously, He Huan was also squeezed out by the other four brothers.

But He Huan came over and asked, "Did you just hum 'Lovesickness'?"

Yuan Jiamin nodded and said, "Did you hear it? This is Shun's new song this year."

He Huan approached and stopped when he was three steps away from Yuan Jiamin, and said, "Of course I know. I can know all the songs composed by you, but I have a bad voice and can't sing very well."

Yuan Jiamin said: "I don't sing very well, but it doesn't stop me from liking it." She showed her little daughter's obsession, "I really want to see you. My aunt is the veteran of 'One Heart Music House'. My aunt can sing the song. My aunt met her once, and she said that she is very gentle, not as arrogant and domineering as some people say outside. I especially like to go to Qushe with my aunt and listen to them play and sing. the tunes."

Speaking of this, Yuan Jiamin was a little disappointed, "It's a pity that I can't sing well, and I can't play the piano very well, so I can't enter Yixinqushe." Then, she asked curiously: "Do you know Yixinqushe?"

He Huan: "I know. I heard that there are three elders in Yixinqushe who have paintings drawn by Yuzu himself. Is it true?"

Yuan Jiamin's eyes widened: "It's true! Every time my aunt mentions it, she is very envious. She has seen it with her own eyes! It was the first autumn hunting with His Majesty. He proposed to hold a shuttlecock kicking competition and won The contestants, the top three in the individual competition and the No.1 in the team competition can all get a picture drawn by their own hands. President Chen, President Shi and President Zhao each have one. But my aunt only saw it once. My aunt said His paintings are oil paintings, and even now, there are only a handful of people who know how to paint oil paintings." At this point, Yuan Jiamin sighed, "I wish I had been born a few years earlier. I can kick the shuttlecock very well. I really envy you. "

He Huan smiled lightly.

Yuan Jiamin: "Oh, let me ask you, how did Zuo rescue you at that time?"

He Huan: "Injection, medicine, hanging water..."

Yuan Jiamin trembled: "An injection..."

He Huan laughed and said, "Actually, it doesn't hurt that much."

Yuan Jiamin: "I'm most afraid of injections."

The two talked happily in the gazebo. The girls and buddies in the house saw the two talking and laughing through the glass window. They were very angry, and almost none of them could be calm.Unbeknownst to them, their reactions and words and deeds soon reached the Queen Mother's ears.The Empress Dowager who was resting on the imperial concubine's couch smiled and said to Shen Gu: "Sure enough, it's the youngest daughter, Brother Xiaomao, you can't hide your thoughts."

Shen Gudao: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness King Qi are handsome and imposing, so everyone likes them naturally. But the slaves never thought that among these girls, there would be someone who loves and loves you so much."

The Empress Dowager said with emotion: "So I don't blame the emperor for being jealous. Shunxi has seldom been out of the palace in the past two years, and he is also concerned about the emperor. Shunyu's demeanor is enough to make her daughter's family and her elder brother fall in love with her. How many men are there? I can resist it." The Empress Dowager was well aware of the hidden admiration of some people in the court for Shunxi.It's just that the queen mother will not mention this matter to anyone, and she believes that the emperor is also clear.It is also because Zhuo Ji has always been cautious about getting along with the officials of the former dynasty, which gave the emperor enough sense of security, otherwise...

Shen Gu asked: "Master, do you think this He family's brother and Yuan's daughter are suitable?"

The queen mother smiled and said: "It doesn't matter if the old man thinks it fits or not, the most important thing is that the crown prince and Chen Mu like it."

Aunt Shen understood that the master seemed to like He Huan and Yuan Jiamin too.
