[Langya Bang] Outside listening

Chapter 5

The autumn was exhausting, and the Empress Dowager dozed off while sitting, and a young boy's voice slowly came to her ears:

"Grandma, grandma?"

The old lady is neither deaf nor blind, but she is a little confused.He opened his eyes and reacted for a while, then smiled lovingly: "Jing Yu."

The young man smiled obediently: "Grandma, Qiuliang, why don't you lie on the couch for a while?"

The old lady was happily helped to the couch, patted the back of the young man's hand and chattered: "Don't stay with me all the time, Concubine Chen is not in good health, it's serious to see your mother go... that's right, Jing Yu , let Xiaoshu come in to play someday? I haven't seen you for a few days, I think it's his..."

The young men all complied, and the empress dowager who served her fell asleep, and quietly exited the hall.

Passing palace people saluted: "His Royal Highness King An."

Xiao Jinglin raised his head and looked at the sky for a while, the autumn was crisp and the sun was glaring.

It has been four years since Yuanyou, and even though elder brother Jing Yu will never come back again, elder brother Lin Shu will meet Grandma Tai soon.

After the Mid-Autumn Festival, Princess Nihuang came to Beijing. The former fiancé of the Lin family stayed in the capital for 12 years, but was plotted by the emperor to hold a grand contest to recruit relatives.

The restrictive conditions of the screening test are very simple, the family must be clean, of the same age, good in appearance, and never married...

So Xiao Jinglin hurried to sign up.

The chief examiner dared not speak out, and reminded several times that "the age should be the same". Xiao Jinglin looked confident and said, "Sister Nihuang has always been like a [-]-year-old girl in my heart. I will be seventeen in the twelfth lunar month. Why isn't she about the same age?" ?”

You are about the same age, and the princess hugged you when you were not weaned.

Although they knew that he was purely here to join in the fun, but he was still a county king, and he was quite favored, so they turned a blind eye and let him pass the primary election, so that he could participate in the Yingfenglou martial arts test.

On the first day of the martial arts test, before it was Xiao Jinglin's turn to play, he sat on the stand in a well-behaved manner, living together with all the princes.The ninth son of the emperor was not yet present, so Jing Lin was the youngest in the room, like a monkey, who wanted to jump up after sitting upright for a while.

"Sit down!"

One word held him in place.

Continuing, Jing Lin sat next to his seventh elder brother King Jing.The Seventh Prince has been stationed in the army all year round, and has just returned to Beijing after a change of defense. His murderous spirit has not retreated, which can scare children.And An Wangba always thinks that Seventh Brother doesn't want to see him, and he will always be a tiger when he meets him. As long as Prince Jing is in Beijing, I don't know why we always meet by such a coincidence. When he meets you and smiles at him, he will be serious again The face does not speak.

The crown prince and Prince Yu left one after another to go to the opposite stand, Xiao Jinglin was stared at by his seventh brother, but he still didn't dare to move, he looked over eagerly: "Hey, brother Jing, look across! What did the prince and brother Yu go to do? Who is sitting next to Brother Jing Rui?"

Prince Jing said, "Why do you care so much? The martial arts contest on the stage is not enough for you to watch?"

Xiao Jinglin watched quietly for a while, and finally felt that the previous day's martial arts competition was boring, and looked up: "Seventh brother! Eunuch Gao took them to Yingfeng Tower, oh, it is probably the grandma who saw them and summoned them. Let's go, let's go!" Go and see?"

Prince Jing was unmoved, while An Wangba pouted and ran away by himself.

Seeing that the Empress Dowager had never been stopped by anyone, he smiled and stopped the palace servants at the door who wanted to announce, so he entered the door quietly, just in time for his snow-white-haired great-grandmother to beckon to her kindly: "Xiao Shu, come, come to the empress dowager." Grandma is here."

Brother Jing, oh brother Jing, I told you not to come, this initial opportunity of acquaintance was missed, you deserve it for not being able to recognize him.

The man was dressed in commoner clothes, and he was out of place in the Jinxiu palace. He knelt and bowed his head in front of the empress dowager, as if a great weight bent his back.He hesitated and stretched out his hand, took a walnut crisp that the old lady put in his hand, and held it carefully in the palm of his hand.

The old lady beckoned slightly mischievously to Princess Nihuang, and asked her to come forward. She smiled and held the hands of the two together, like all kind old grandmothers, and said kindly and funnyly: "You two, when will you get married? nah?"

With that struggle and grip, Nihuang's surprised face and Mei Changsu's downcast eyes.

Just before Concubine Yue opened her mouth to remind the old lady of her misremembering, Xiao Jinglin said in a disconcerting voice: "Grandma, Jinglin has been standing here for a long time, and you ignore me, do you not love me?"

Why break it.

Why bother.
