National Beauty

Chapter 84 084

Lin was afraid that when his daughter was chosen as the royal concubine or Xuande’s imperial concubine, at Yong’an Bofu, Aunt Tan was devoutly burning incense and bathing, burning incense to worship Buddha, and prayed that the Bodhisattva would bless her daughter Tan Xiangyu to become a princess. Princess Gong. The birth mother of the four princes, King Gong, was Concubine Hui, who was very much loved by the emperor, and Concubine Hui’s father was He Zhijing, Shangshu of the Household Department, one of the most famous people in front of the emperor.

“Mother is right. With your appearance, don’t worry about marrying someone. Take a look. This will bring you a golden opportunity of a lifetime.” After worshipping the Bodhisattva, Aunt Tan took her daughter’s hand back to the inner room, proud Looked at her daughter carefully.

Tan Xiangyu looks really good, with oval face and willow leaf eyebrows, and a slender figure, just like the person in the painting. Tan Xiangyu was also proud of it, but last year after being satirized by Princess Duanhui at the Shou Palace, Tan Xiangyu had no confidence in herself. She drooped her head and said: “There are so many beauties in the capital. I’m going down. She has an uncle backed by her, and she will definitely get a princess, and the rest…”

Tan Xiangyu really doesn’t hold any hope because there are too many beautiful girls and little princes.

“What’s the use of a bare face, just because of her reputation for gluttony, even the girls in Beijing won’t be able to get her.” Aunt Tan sarcastically said, “Besides, who doesn’t know that her father is a Jiangnan desolate judge. If not, why does the Lu family despise her? Xiangyu, cheer up, she is far inferior to yours in terms of identity.”

Tan Xiangyu looked at her mother and nodded slowly.

After helping her daughter to regain her fighting spirit, Aunt Tan began to prepare clothes for her daughter to wear in the palace. As her daughter grew older, Aunt Tan became more and more willing to spend money on her daughter. Just this summer, she made four new sets of clothes, all of which were made of fine materials. With enough clothes to wear, Aunt Tan personally went to the jewelry store to buy some exquisite hairpins and earrings for her daughter. When she returned home, she taught her daughter how to match clothes and jewelry.

After a busy day, it was dusk without knowing it.

“Madam, the world’s son is here.” The wife was talking in the room, when the maid outside the door suddenly reported.

Aunt Tan was pleasantly surprised, but my nephew hadn’t come to see her for a while.

It is expected that my nephew still remembers that her daughter seduce King Shou. Aunt Tan told her daughter to wait in the house, and she went to the front yard to see her nephew. He walked briskly through the corridor to the front yard, and saw his nephew standing under the eaves of the corridor wearing a crow-blue homely robe, his face was cold, but he was so handsome that he couldn’t move his eyes.

“Why did Pingzhang come here?” Aunt Tan asked lovingly.

Guo Xiao bowed to his aunt and said with a serious face: “I heard that my cousin will enter the palace for the draft tomorrow. I picked a few jewelry from the storeroom. We don’t compare the height of these show girls, but we can’t be underestimated.” After that, he winked at Ashun, and Ashun immediately put the cedar wood jewelry box in his hand on the square table next to Aunt Tan.

Aunt Tan was so shocked, her heart pounded with excitement. Since Lin’s mother and daughter moved to the Guogong Mansion, I don’t know what happened. My nephew’s attitude towards her is getting colder and colder. Aunt Tan’s heart is about to cool down. I didn’t expect my nephew, who has always been cold and cold, would actually come to give jewelry. Looking at the jewelry box on the table, Aunt Tan calmed down in time, pushing the box toward Guo Xiao, and refusing to say: “No need. Auntie has it here. You got it from your mother’s dowry, right? Take it back and save it to please your wife in the future.”

Guo Xiao held the jewelry box and smiled faintly: “Auntie, this is my cousin. Call your cousin over to see if she likes it.”

When Aunt Tan heard this, she knew that her nephew really wanted to give something, and she also forgave her daughter for the mistake she made in the first place. She smiled immediately and ordered the maid to call her daughter. When the maid invited Tan Xiangyu, she naturally explained the situation in the front yard. Tan Xiangyu was very excited and simply dressed up and came to the front yard happily.

“Cousin.” Entering the hall, looking at the handsome cousin sitting in the main seat on the left, Tan Xiangyu called sweetly, her cheeks slightly red.

Guo Xiao looked at her, frowned and said, “Why are you thin?”

Tan Xiangyu’s eyes became sour inexplicably when she heard the words, and she bit her lip aggrievedly. Why is she skinny? Of course, my cousin is scared. If my cousin always cares about her, she doesn’t want to be a princess.

“Come and take a look, I don’t know what style your girl likes.” Guo Xiao opened the box and said to Tan Xiangyu.

Aunt Tan squeezed the veil and did not look inside the box with restraint.

Tan Xiangyu walked to the front, and saw a whole set of jade heads with good aqua color in the box, and every single item was amazingly eye-catching. She beamed her eyebrows, her eyes scanned the jewelry in the box one by one, both rare and curious, guessing that Guo Xiao was in a good mood at the moment, Tan Xiangyu glanced at him and asked playfully: “Why is my cousin so good suddenly? ”

Guo Xiao joked: “I won’t give it away now. When my cousin becomes the princess, I won’t look at my cousin’s things.”

It was all what Aunt Tan liked to hear.

Tan Xiangyu’s joy in her heart faded a little, and she heard that this good cousin did not have her at all in her heart.

“Aunt, go and work, I’ll ask my cousin a few words alone.” After a sip of tea, Guo Xiao suddenly said to Aunt Tan.

Aunt Tan was stunned and looked at each other with her nephew. Although she was very confused, she nodded with a smile and left the hall to her cousins.

The mother was gone, and the maids also went out. Tan Xiangyu sat in the place where her mother had just been, and looked at the cousin on the opposite side in a puzzled way.

Guo Xiao looked outside, silent for a while, and took out a ruby ​​hairpin from his sleeve.

Ruby red like pigeon blood exudes the irresistible temptation of women in the world in the hands of men. Tan Xiangyu held her breath nervously. When she silently waited for her cousin to speak, saying that the hairpin was also for her, she saw the man squeeze in horror. Staying on the hairpin, it seemed that he didn’t use much force, and the hairpin got out of Chijin’s hairpin!

Tan Xiangyu covered her mouth in shock.

Guo Xiao got up, walked to her, and asked her to see clearly what was hidden in the hairpin.

A quarter of an hour later, Aunt Tan reckoned that the time had come back, but only her daughter was sitting in the hall, and her nephew was nowhere to be seen.

“Where is your cousin?” Aunt Tan asked in surprise.

Tan Xiangyu smiled brightly: “Say something is going on, let’s go first.”

Aunt Tan instinctively noticed something wrong, and asked her daughter in a low voice, “What did your cousin say?”

Tan Xiangyu shook her head and found an excuse to perfuse her. Her cousin repeatedly warned her not to tell anyone, including her mother. Tan Xiangyu didn’t dare to say, fearing that his mother would worry about her.

The next morning, Tan Xiangyu, who could not sleep through the night, got into her carriage.

At the same time, outside the gate of Weiguo Gongfu, Song Jianing also walked to the carriage. The men have all gone as errands, and only a group of female relatives came out to send her off. Lin took her daughter’s hand and looked at her daughter’s tender face even though she was a little thinner. Her apricot eyes were clear and peaceful, and she didn’t put the draft in the slightest. The look in his eyes, for some reason, Lin suddenly felt very unwilling to let go, as if her daughter would never come back once she was gone.

“If you don’t have enough food in the palace, remember to tell the maid in charge, don’t be hungry.” After a thousand words, Lin hugged her daughter and whispered in her ear. Back then, she remarried Guo Boyan. Before the wedding, her daughter had to move to the Guogong Mansion. She was afraid that her daughter would be laughed at by the Guo family and told her to eat less. As a result, the child became so hungry. This time her daughter will stay in the palace for a month. Lin prefers that her daughter be laughed at by the show girls because she eats a lot, and she does not want her daughter to listen to her and be hungry for thirty days.

Song Jianing also remembered the silly story of his childhood and nodded obediently.

“Well, let An An get in the car, don’t delay.” Madam Tai said with a lot of emotion.

Lin reluctantly let go of her daughter.

“Grandma, mother, second aunt and third aunt, you can go back.” After getting in the car, Song Jianing stood in front of the car and persuaded with a smile.

Lin urged her daughter to advance to the carriage.

Song Jianing stooped in, sat down, and once again persuaded the elders to return home.

Yiyi bid farewell, and the carriage took the four girls from the Guogong Mansion towards the palace. Lin was standing at the door, watching the carriage turn, she took the brother Mao, who was also reluctant to bear her sister, and returned to Linyuntang in a complex mood. The beautiful grandfather’s wife finally went in, and a guard at the gate of Shouwang’s Mansion next door also quietly went to talk to Grandpa Fu.

After hearing this, Father Fu happily walked into the study, and said to the prince Shou who was holding a pen to practice calligraphy: “My lord, the four girls have set off and got on the carriage with a smile.” In the palace draft, he was selected as the princess, better than marrying Lu. The reckless man in the town is not a star. If the four girls are crying, he will doubt if the four girls are stupid.

Zhao Heng wrote his own mind, as if he hadn’t heard of it.

Father Fu stepped back silently, slandering silently in his heart, so the prince would just pretend, he wanted to see if the four girls would marry in the future, would the prince continue to be with the calligraphy and painting as he is now.

Three rods on the sun, hundreds of beautiful women gathered outside Gongchen Gate, one of them slenderer than the other. Song Jianing stood with the acquaintance of the two handkerchiefs, and from time to time he noticed the scrutiny of other beautiful women, and even faintly whispering in his ears, either talking about her figure, or laughing at the oil explosion she was right in the past. Xiaxialian.

Song Jianing only felt hot, and the sunshine in the capital in early April was too bright.

After waiting for about two quarters of an hour, finally a female officer walked out of the palace gate, and ordered the twenty show ladies to stand in a row according to the roster and enter the palace in order. Pass through the Gongchen Gate, walk a distance forward, and then pass through a doorway. The Linhua Gate is in front of you. Ten father-in-laws were already standing side by side in front of the door. The show-girls passed by in line, and the father-in-laws looked carefully one by one, and picked out the short ones, the ones with pimples and birthmarks on their faces, and the ugly ones first.

The father-in-laws were elected strictly, and hundreds of people were unsuccessfully elected here.

The remaining 200-odd people continue to go to the room for **** examinations. Those with scars, odors, or even broken bodies will also lose the election.

It was Song Jianing’s turn. Feeling the lack of emotional gaze from one side of the female officer, Song Jianing undressed and thought, since a woman is thin and beautiful, will she lose the election because she is plump? If so, she will be able to return to the government office soon, and her mother must be very happy.

Unfortunately, the facts proved that the female officer did not dislike her for being fat, and her eyes seemed to be a bit… amazing.

The author has something to say: Jianing: Shame

Female officer: Wow!

Zhao Heng:…
