"You went to the study room at the age of five, and now it has been more than ten years, and you don't know where you have read all the books. I remember that you could recite many important officials of Zhenguan government two years ago. Now you have completely forgotten them all. Thank you Your master has a good temper, if it were me, I would die of anger just looking at you in the study."

"Huang Ama, calm down." The third elder brother knelt down in fear, with a cowardly look, which angered the emperor even more.

"Calm down, I really want to calm down. Your fourth brother entered school much later than you, and now no matter what I ask, at least he can answer fluently. Although the fifth elder brother is not a material for studying, I went to the military camp to watch him practice martial arts a few days ago She looks like a horse, and she has some real skills in riding and shooting. And Xu'er, Xu'er has just entered the study room not long ago, and she can recite books more fluently than you. I think if it wasn't for Xiaoqi's poor health, the study room could not You have to rest for a day, even he is stronger than you!"

"Huang Ama." The third elder brother lowered his head aggrievedly.

"You are my eldest son. I don't ask you to make contributions and share the worries of my father, but I beg you to be an example of reading for your younger brothers, so that I can worry less. Now you younger brothers Fighting, but it is you, the eldest son, who make so many incompetent appearances."

The emperor reprimanded the third elder brother in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, and the more he talked, the more angry he became, and he could hear a lot even outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

The fourth elder brother stood peacefully in a corner outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation, waiting for Huang Ama to summon him to ask about his homework, with a cold expression on his face.

An Lingrong led Hong Xu and stood aside.

After a while, the third elder brother came out of the hall with his head down, saw An Lingrong standing outside, and saluted, "Concubine Yao is well."

Seeing the third elder brother coming out, the fourth elder brother consciously saluted, "Ms. Yao Concubine, I will go in and do my homework first."

"Go quickly." An Lingrong watched the fourth elder brother walk into the Hall of Mental Cultivation calmly, and there was no more reprimand in the hall.The third elder brother in front of An Lingrong became more and more dejected.

"Your Huang Ama has hope in you, so naturally he will be stricter than others when asking you about your homework. Don't take it to heart, after all, they are father and son." An Lingrong comforted her.

The third elder brother turned his head aside, "Yes, thank you, Empress Yao, for your concern."

"You still have to leave the palace and go back to the palace, hurry up."

"Emperor Niang is still waiting in the palace to ask me about my homework."

"It's so late, then what time will you get up tomorrow and go to the study?"

"Three quarters of Yin Shi."

An Lingrong showed concern, "How many hours do you sleep every day?"

The third elder brother had tears in his eyes, "The Queen's mother said that the stupid bird flies first. I am not smarter than others, so I have to work harder than others. So I have to study hard day and night."

"The Queen, like your Huang Ama, has high hopes for you. According to your Huang Ama, Fujin has been found for you, and it's time for you to find a lovely person to take care of your daily life."

The third elder brother didn't show too much joy when Concubine Yao mentioned the matter of finding Fujin, "Yes, it's getting late, and I'm going to leave first."

Hong Xu stared at the third brother as he walked away, "Emiang, I thought the fourth brother was the one who studies hardest, but I don't think the third brother is even more diligent than the fourth brother."

An Lingrong knelt down to help Hong Xu straighten his clothes, "Er Niang remembers that your master often praised you for being talented and smart, and you were good at homework in the study. Besides, when Xu'er is still growing up, she doesn't have to be as diligent as her brothers."

"I read the article "Shang Zhongyong" recently. It shows that no matter how talented you are, if you can't study hard in the future, you will still be lost to everyone. Although you are growing up, you must be diligent in your homework. Take the fourth brother as an example." Hong Xu looked at it. Looking at Concubine Yao's smooth forehead, watching her gently and habitually help him remove the wrinkles on his clothes, although there are fewer servants around because of the late night, Hong Xu still whispered, "No matter how hardworking the third brother is, he is no match for mediocre talents." , but no matter how good the fourth brother's books are, Huang Ama and the masters in the study are all biased towards the third brother. Not to mention the son-in-law, he is just a child who has just entered the study."

"But your Emma, ​​I like you very much." An Lingrong maintained a position where he could almost look at Hong Xu, and looked at Hong Xu.

"In Chuxiu Palace, Huang Ama didn't like Erchen so much. I heard from Wu Ge that when his biological mother, Concubine Yu, was there, Wu Ge never paid much attention to Huang Ama until Er Niang was willing to be with her at that time. No one wants to get closer to the fifth brother, so the fifth brother gradually gained Huang Ama's love." Hong Xu made a conclusion with childishness, "Huang Ama's liking for my son is not because of my son."

"Xu'er, you have to let your Huang Ama see you in his eyes before you can let him have you in his heart. But if you don't want to let your Huang Ama like you in his eyes, Emiang will naturally have a way."

"But in terms of Huang Ama's love, my son is not as good as the eighth brother. It's fine if it's the fourth brother, but that's the eighth brother who can't talk for a long time... My son is not convinced." Hong Xu looked at Huang Ama's favorite The eyes of Mrs. An said, "Emiang, in the palace, not only children are valued according to their mothers, but also mothers are valued according to their children."

An Lingrong heard the door of the main hall behind him opened quickly, and touched Hong Xu's head. No matter how smart the child is, he is only six years old. To put it bluntly, it is for the love of his biological father, but in the royal family, once he fights for the emperor Ma's love is not just a simple father's love.

An Lingrong said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "Miss An, wait and see."

Hong Xu took An Lingrong's hand with his little hand, and said in the same soft voice, "My son is going to go back to Huang Ama for his homework."

An Lingrong showed the same loving smile as usual, "Ms. An will always be here waiting for Xu'er."

Hong Xu's small figure walked into the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

"Xu'er, gradually he doesn't address me as Mrs. An in private, and even calls himself a son to me, not a minister."

"Your Majesty, I can see all your care for Elder Brother."

"Ben Gong hopes that in the future, Ri Xu'er will not only call her Er Niang Ben Gong in her mouth, but also have this Er Niang Ben Gong in her heart."

Ju Qing supported An Lingrong to get up, "Madam, Fifth Elder Brother sent you another jade carving today, and there is also a letter for Sixth Elder Brother, you haven't had time to read it yet."

"It's been three years. Every month, Zhou'er either writes letters to Ben Gong or Xu Er. Back then, Ben Gong and him watched Concubine Yu's burial, and Ben Gong brought him back to the palace. Although he refused to recognize Ben Gong as Er Niang, But he is always close to Bengong, Yanxu, and even Hongxu who is not a child of this palace." An Lingrong sighed, "Chou'er is determined not to read that sage book, and he can only become a helper in the future, while he Since he didn't recognize Er Niang, the emperor assured him to go to the barracks."

"Although the fifth elder brother did not recognize the empress as his mother, the fifth elder brother has a empress in his heart all these years."

"He is a filial child." An Lingrong thought of the Yuanmingyuan in the midsummer of that year, and the corners of his mouth softened. "As soon as the concubine Rong passed away and the Lantern Festival passed, the empress got busy. The empress will invite me to the palace in the future to respect the noble concubine and the concubine Duan." There is also Concubine Xi to meet the beautiful girl who will choose Fujin for the third elder brother, don't forget to remind me."

"Yes."

"See Empress Dowager, Empress Empress. Empress Dowager, Empress Empress, Wanfu Jinan."

"Exemption."

An Lingrong got up and sat next to Concubine Jing, and said, "A few days ago, my concubine accompanied the Queen Mother to worship the Buddha, and saw that the Queen Mother looked very good. Today I see the Queen Mother in the Royal Garden, and the Queen Mother looks even better than before."

"Good boy, you are so busy that you are still willing to accompany Ai's family to worship Buddha." The queen mother looked at the two empty seats next to Concubine Yao and Concubine Jing, "Have Concubine Duan and Concubine Xi come yet?"

"Concubine Duan is not feeling well, and she has taken leave today." The Queen said.

"What about Concubine Xi?"

"The concubine came late, and I hope the empress dowager and the empress will forgive me." Concubine Xi and Zhen Yuluo who were beside her bowed and pleaded guilty.

"The empress didn't say that Ai's family would come, but the empress is still here, why did Concubine Xi come so late today?"

"If you go back to the queen mother, I woke up early this morning and felt a little cold, so the minister and concubine delayed for a while."

"It's fine if it's for the imperial granddaughter of the Ai family, as long as it's not arrogant." The queen mother didn't ask Concubine Xi and Zhen Yuluo to get up, and the two could only half kneel, "Today is Hongshi's selection of Fujin, Zhen Yuluo Second Miss is here anyway."

"If you go back to the queen mother, the courtier will be very bored, but my sister is afraid that if you don't look at the courtier, the courtier will do something out of the ordinary, so I arrest the courtier and come with her."

Zhen Yuluo has been in the palace for so long, even if she doesn't understand etiquette, she still came here.The Empress Dowager also knew that Zhen Yurao had stayed in the palace for a long time, the emperor probably had feelings for her but Zhen Yurao had no thoughts, and Concubine Xi usually received most of her favor, so it would be nice to see such a face less.

"Take a seat."

"Yes."

The Empress Dowager looked at the third elder brother who had finished watching the rows of beautiful women standing on the other side, "Hongshi, you have a woman you like."

Hong Shi respectfully said, "If you go back to the emperor's grandmother, the emperor's mother will choose good people, and the ministers have not yet made up their minds."

"Then take your time, there will always be something you like." The Queen Mother said.

The queen smiled and said, "Qing Ying, come here."

"Yes. Hello, third elder brother." Wearing a brocade dress made of fine blue silk and satin, a woman with a good demeanor and a pretty face stepped forward.

"This is your cousin's daughter, you should call her cousin."

Hiroshi and Qing Ying chatted absently, and the three concubines at the same table also chatted.

"Time is passing by, and in a blink of an eye, it's time for the third elder brother to pick Fujin." Concubine Jing said with emotion.

An Lingrong took an apricot, she saw that although the third elder brother was chatting with Qingying, she looked at their concubines many times, "It is also the age to get married, the third elder brother's marriage is decided by the queen, and the fourth elder brother But no one ever mentioned it.”

Elder Brother's marriage is closely related to Elder Brother's future, and all three people present are aware of it.

Concubine Xi said, "I heard that the fourth elder brother's homework is very good, and the sixth elder brother also went to the study. Concubine Yao must be the one of us who knows the fourth elder brother's homework best."

"It doesn't matter how good the homework is. Just look at the third elder brother and you will know that you can't succeed without a good mother." An Lingrong casually looked in the direction of the third elder brother. Hong Zhou will get married too."

Concubine Jing joked, "Master Qi who taught fifth elder brother is a military general. I heard that there is a beloved daughter who is quite good at the art of war and has a pretty face. She often visits fifth elder brother's master. This family is also quite good. Maybe fifth elder brother's marriage is not necessary." The emperor is worried."

"If Lang has a lover and a concubine is interested, it will indeed be a good story." Concubine Xi also agreed.

An Ling smiled, looked at the two of them, and pointed to the table full of snacks, "This table full of food can't stop the mouths of the two of you. It's fine if you two are in love with each other, and if one doesn't pay attention , what can a good girl do?"

Zhen Yuluo, who was sitting next to Concubine Xi, kept silent, just playing with the handkerchief, without even raising her head, as if she was depressed.

Seeing that Hongshi chatted with Qingying for a while, the Queen Mother got up and said, "It's about time, Concubine Hui should wait for Aijia in Shoukang Palace, and Aijia will go back to the palace first."

"Respectfully send the empress dowager."

Concubine Xi saw that the two people who were sticking around looked like they had green cherry hot faces sticking to the third elder brother, and seeing the empress smiled awkwardly, she said to the empress as soon as the empress dowager left, "Maybe we are here, and the children are also restrained. "

The queen took Jianqiu's hand, "That's right, I haven't recovered from my health recently, and the wind has picked up, so I should go back to the palace to change."

"Congratulations to the Queen Mother."

The four watched the queen go, and when the queen left, the third elder brother was even more perfunctory to Qing Ying.

Concubine Jing said first, "Since that's the case, we won't stay any longer, let's go our separate ways."

"Alright."

Concubine Jing and Concubine Xi walked side by side, and Zhen Yuluo left with Concubine Xi.

An Lingrong picked up an extra apricot, unfortunately, he looked up and saw Hong Shi looking straight at the direction in which Concubine Jing and Xi left.

Until returning to Yanxi Palace, An Lingrong was still thinking about Hongshi's expression.

"Zhu Er, do elder brothers and Miss Zhen Er know each other?"

"Your Majesty, Second Miss Zhen often plays around in the Imperial Garden, and Third Elder Brother often walks around in the inner palace. They have known each other for more than a year."

An Lingrong turned to drink from the teacup, "The third elder brother is used to seeing Concubine Jinggui and Concubine Xi, so it is impossible to look at them frequently, the only possibility is Second Miss Zhen."

Zhu'er giggled, "That's why the third elder brother has taken a fancy to Miss Zhen Er. It's a pity that the empress and concubine Xi are very at odds."

"But Zhen Yurao shouldn't have anything to do with Hongshi..."

"Your Majesty, there are many coincidences in the world, not to mention the relationship between a man and a woman is even more difficult to guess. The servant girl said a foul word, which is right, and even gods can't stop it. How can there be something wrong." Zhu'er tilted her head.

"The third elder brother has a weak personality and mediocre aptitude. Although Zhen Yuluo doesn't want to enter the palace, but he is arrogant and arrogant, so he must not look down on the third elder brother's temperament." Besides, in the previous life, Zhen Yuluo should have been with the emperor's younger brother, Shen Beile It's right to be together.And the third elder brother should be a quiet and elegant woman.

"Your Majesty, don't forget that Second Miss Zhen is lively and intelligent, and she is also an extremely beautiful woman. What's more, the male college should marry and the female college should marry. Even if there is any affair between the two, one is the royal family and the other is the concubine Xi's younger sister." , other people will only say that they are in love with each other. The empress doesn't need to think too much."

"I always feel that something is wrong." An Lingrong thought repeatedly, "But one of them is unmarried and the other is unmarried. Concubine Xi will never want to use her own sister to win over the third elder brother of the queen. From a personal point of view, after all, it is in the palace, and I still have half the power to manage the sixth palace, if something happens in the sixth palace, I will be in trouble if it gets involved."

"Yes."

"Today, Concubine Jing and Concubine Xi also talked about the selection of Fujin by Zhou'er. The courtiers can see clearly that Zhou'er may not inherit the great rule in the future, and maybe Zhou'er will not be able to pick a good Fujin from a family."

"If what Concubine Jing and Concubine Xi said is true, the master Qi who taught the fifth elder brother is from the family of Concubine Duan, and Master Qi's daughter is very worthy of the fifth elder brother."

An Ling smiled, "What the two of them said is unbelievable, Zhou'er's marriage should be decided by Zhou'er himself." Then he put down the tea cup he was playing with, "Is there a slight improvement in the affairs of my mother's house?"

"Your Majesty, that's what you said here. In fact, since you have some clues, why don't you ask Concubine Jin or Concubine Lan to help you?"

"If Bengong hadn't exchanged her child, with Concubine Jin's temper, I'm afraid she wouldn't want to get involved in this muddy water. As for Concubine Lan, it's not easy for her to get close to Bengong. For such a big matter, I should let Bengong himself It's good to do it alone." An Lingrong stood up, "Let's go, Xu'er is about to leave the study. Let's go see if the dinner in the small kitchen is ready."

"Niang Niang," Ju Qing walked quickly to An Lingrong's side who was reading the chess record.

"It's rare for Juqing to panic." An Lingrong flipped another page casually.

"Your Majesty, Zhen Yuluo has been conferred the title of nobleman, titled Wan. He is bestowed to live in Jingyang Palace where no concubines live."

"The emperor really loves this new sister." An Lingrong's eyes stopped reading, "Although this is a bit too much, her own sister has already set a precedent, so it's nothing."

"It's not uncommon for this to happen sooner or later," Ju Qing paused, "but at the same time, the third elder brother was reprimanded by the emperor for not paying attention to his studies, so he was restrained and asked him to study hard. Even the selection of Fujin was also delayed."

"Oh?" An Lingrong put down the game record, "That's strange. Can Zeng Lixin find out anything?"

"Slaves are useless. The people in front of the imperial court are very tight-lipped. They only said that the third elder brother didn't study well and angered the emperor."

"I can't blame you. Since Zeng Lixin took office, few people have been able to inquire about the matter of the Hall of Mental Cultivation. Even Bengong asked personally, but I don't know if any of the three sentences are useful." An Lingrong put the chess record behind him Put it away in the sandalwood cabinet, "Go and whisper the slave who has been staring at the Yongbao Hall where Mr. Wangui used to live these days."

"Yes."

The author has something to say:

Because I have been outside and don’t have much time to write, it will be fine in two days QAQ
