Chapter 15: There is no danger(1/2)

In September, the autumn is clear and the osmanthus flowers in Corning Palace are sweet and sweet.

In the afternoon, Empress Dowager Zi ordered her maid Yin'er to go to Shuyi Palace to pass on a message to Concubine Shu and Concubine Xiao De to discuss the emperor's talent show.

After a while, the two noble concubines came gracefully.

Zhong Liang, the eunuch in charge of the harem, said: Qi reported to the Empress Dowager, there were 18 people in this election, two young ladies from Kyoto, and a total of twenty girls.

Empress Dowager Zi said, "Oh, there are a lot of people, twenty people, what is the talent, appearance and character? Where is the picture album, Ai's family first take a look."

The eunuch Zhong Liang said: "Please read the Queen Mother, this is the album of all the girls. Queen Mother, look, these three girls, the servants feel that they are kind-hearted..."

Queen Mother Zi glanced at it and Leng Lin said, "When did you, the eunuch, understand these things?"

Zhong Liang knelt down, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and said tremblingly: "I deserve to die. Queen Mother, please calm down. Please spare me this time!"

"Ba, bha," eunuch Zhong Liang slapped himself until the corner of his mouth was red.

Empress Dowager Zi glanced at her sideways, and the palace maid Yin'er said lightly: "Get up!"

Concubine Shu approached her with a pleasing face and said with a smile: "My mother, my son is stupid. You are so wise and the empress dowager who is in the world. It is up to her mother to decide later!

Concubine Xiao De said: "Yes, yes, I am the same as the concubine's sister. You have a unique vision. The only way to make such a beautiful ruling is to trouble my mother to decide!"

Faced with the careful compliments of the two concubines, Empress Dowager Zi was in a much better mood. She played the newly made golden armor cover, stroked her hair, and then snorted: "Ai family is just a pleasure. The final copyright will be decided by the emperor."

The eunuch Zhong Liang kowtowed repeatedly and said flatteringly: "What the Empress Dowager said is, take a look first. I believe you and the two empresses should be thirsty. If the slave goes, come!"

Empress Dowager Zi's eyes turned and said, "The Ai family is a little tired. Take a look. You two carefully first and choose the right person. Let's take a look at it!"

In this way, two hours later, Empress Dowager Zi and the two palace concubines agreed, and finally left sixteen women to choose.

The next day, the emperor confronted the album and appointed three beauties.

Among them is Mu Zini, a folk woman from Yaoguang County, Mobei who looks like Huifei.

Yao Qier, the daughter of Yao Zhenquan, the National Taiwan Master of Jiangnan Prefecture.

The other woman is Wu Siyuan, the daughter of General Wu Qisheng of Pingxi Prefecture.

As soon as these three beauties entered the palace, Yao Qier was deeply loved by Empress Dowager Zi, and Emperor Jing of Ming also loved the pure and lovely folk woman Mu Zini.

On the first night, Emperor Jing of Ming favored Mu Zini. He looked at Mu Zini's shiny black eyes and kept muttering, Xiaoxiaoer, Xiaoxiaoer... Somehow Mu Zini had to keep smiling, and her face was stiff.

The next day, the emperor appointed Mu Zini as Concubine Xi and moved into Lingxiu Palace on the left side of Neon Palace.

The next day, in the pavilion beside Yilan Lake in the Imperial Garden, Shoufu Tang and Emperor Jing of Ming played chess while chatting. The king and his minister had a great conversation, and the atmosphere was harmonious.

On both sides of the pavilion, two palace maids in green clothes stood with their hands down, and they were adding tea and water. They also listened carefully to their master's words.

I heard from the Shoufu Tang say, "Your Majesty, I am afraid. If you make such arrangements, I really dare not accept them, nor can I accept them! Please be kind to the emperor!"

Emperor Jing of Ming was a little unhappy when he heard Lord Tang's refusal. Just as he was about to scold him angrily, a tall palace maid in green clothes said, "Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager and Princess Yue are here!"

Emperor Jing of Ming looked up and saw Empress Dowager Zi and Shangguan Yue walking leisurely towards the Peony Pavilion in the direction of the Imperial Garden.

"My minister Tang Size pays homage to the Empress Dowager, wishing the Empress Dowager Jin An! Princess Ya'an!"

Emperor Jing of Ming stood up and said, "My son meets with the mother, the mother is Ji'an! Sister Wu'an!"

"Oh, is the Prime Minister here too?"

"Yes, my mother, my son-in-law summoned Tang Aiqing to the palace today, and there was a happy event to discuss. Well, I haven't obtained the order of my mother's queen yet, so my son-in-law wanted to pay my respects to her later. Cough cough, it seems that the emperor and my mother are really in tune with each other!"

When Empress Dowager Zi heard this, she was very happy. After looking at it, she found that the legendary wise and brave Tang Size was so handsome and young. She couldn't help but secretly praised her and said bluntly: "Mr. Tang is a noble family member this year, can she have a family partner?"

Emperor Jing of Ming smiled and said, "Hahaha, what does this mean by Mother?"

Empress Dowager Zi smiled and said, "I heard that Tang Aiqing is both civil and military, and is a loyal and virtuous minister in the Northern Tang Dynasty. Shouldn't the Ai family care about the lives of virtuous ministers?"

"Yes, the queen and the prince also have some ideas, but Tang Aiqing has not agreed..."

The emperor walked around Empress Dowager Zi and whispered quietly... The mother and son nodded repeatedly, smiling.

Especially Empress Dowager Zi, her eyes were filled with joy, and her head was so happy that she was swaying with gold and pearls on her head.

After a while, Empress Dowager Zi said, "Emperor, Princess Yue of the Ai family is beautiful and beautiful, and she is virtuous and kind. The Ai family wants to point Yue'er to Lord Tang. I wonder if the Ai family is so beautiful?"

I saw that Shoufu Tang was sweating heavily, his clothes were wet on his back, his legs became weak, and he knelt on the ground in panic and said, "I am afraid that Princess Yue is a golden branch and a jade leaf... How dare I have such a bad idea? I beg the Empress Dowager to take back Cheng's life!"

The next day, the emperor gave a palace banquet to invite the chief minister and his family to the palace banquet.

The first-class lady Liu Fengyun is graceful, dignified and virtuous, and is wearing a green palace dress, which makes her look even more elegant and elegant.

Twenty years ago, Liu Fengyun's father Liu Ruhai was a county magistrate under the jurisdiction of Jizhou Prefecture of the Northern Tang Dynasty. He was a clean and upright official and loved the people as his son. Somehow, he attracted the favor of the prince Shangguan Zi. After walking around, County Magistrate Liu actually fell in love with Tang Size, the principal of the prince who was neat and loyal and reliable.

The magistrate of Liu County was anxious to find a son-in-law, so he immediately asked the media to help Yucheng. According to the information, the two young people, Liu Tang, fell in love at first sight and became happy.

After three months, the dream of a good partner is fulfilled. He is really a handsome man and a beautiful woman. A marriage that is long destined.

Liu Fengyun is knowledgeable about books and politeness, gentle and virtuous. He married into the Tang family, respects his parents-in-law, takes care of his husband and daughters, and the couple supports each other, and even gave birth to three smart and good daughters for the Tang family.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! During the meal, Empress Dowager Zi asked with a smile: "I heard that Mrs. Tang and his wife have a deep love. Mrs. Tang, you are so lucky!"

Liu Fengyun replied: "My wife thanks the Queen Mother, I am ashamed of being mediocre!

The Empress Dowager, your mother is in the world. I borrow your golden words. I wish the Empress Dowager a good body and a good fortune forever!”

"Haha... Mrs. Tang is so eloquent! I heard that Mr. Tang has been pampering his wife and daughter for decades, and has not yet taken a concubine? Is that true?"

Liu Fengyun said calmly: "Empress Dowager Xie cares about it, his wife and husband are mediocre, Tang's house is small and the land is thin, and there is no favor to noble women!"

"Is that so? According to the legend, Mrs. Tang is fierce and fierce. Lord Tang is as timid as a mouse at home, without dignity, and does not know whether it is true or false? Haha..."

Liu Fengyun glanced at Lord Tang and said with a smile: "The Empress Dowager is very proud and thanks the Empress Dowager for his teachings, and his wife will be diligent in the future and take it as her responsibility to take care of her husband and daughters!"

"Hey, today's Hongmen Banquet!"

At this moment, Tang Size finally understood that Emperor Jing of Ming and his son wanted to marry the princess Shangguan Yuexia as a side room, to get along with each other in-laws, and to strengthen the royal power forever.

Shangguan Yuejing sat on the table and occasionally raised her eyes...

By the way, Princess Yue's mother was Jingpin of the late emperor, and she suddenly passed away shortly after giving birth to Princess Yue.

The late emperor handed over Princess Yue to Concubine Zi to raise. She liked Princess Yue very much for Zi Xuanyue, who had few children, as if she was a biological mother and daughter.

After the Tang family entered the palace, Empress Dowager Zi specially arranged for Shangguan Yue to meet with Mrs. Tang alone. When the clever Mrs. Tang saw this scene, she already knew it in her heart.

It is rumored that Shangguan Yue is willful and willful, and is a cruel and ruthless master. Hey, if he refuses this marriage, Empress Dowager Zi, who is suspicious by nature, will definitely not let Tang Mansion go.

If I agree, I am afraid that my family will never be at peace from now on, and Liu Fengyun is filled with worries and thoughts.

So, Liu Fengyun looked at it in secret and said that Princess Yue was born with a handsome and elegant temperament. She looked like a noble girl from a noble family. Especially, her every move did not have the spoiled atmosphere of a noble girl from a royal family.

Similarly, after facing Mrs. Tang, the understanding Princess Yue had a sensation in her heart, and she found that the Tang couple was indeed very loving.

Tang Size was full of Madam Tang, which shows that he was a sincere, affectionate and kind man. If the man had not married, he was indeed his good match!

In the current situation, Shangguan Yue is still the noble princess, how can she marry him as a concubine? Do you want him to divorce his wife? Shangguan Yue felt that it was really a shame. She didn't want to serve Liu Fengyun, nor did she want to serve her husband! What she wanted was a man who loved her wholeheartedly and was good to herself!

At this moment, Shangguan Yue also made a decision in her heart. She raised her glass and smiled: "I am so envious of Mrs. Tang. Can you tell me a secret of the family happiness? Haha..."

Mrs. Tang smiled slightly: "Princess Yue was joking, her wife was stupid. Fortunately, my family members refused to abandon her, so she had a stable life!"

Then, Mrs. Tang called her three daughters and greeted Shangguan Yue one by one.

The beautiful and handsome three sisters said with a smile: "Little daughter, pay homage to the princess and aunt Ya'an!"

"The princess aunt is so beautiful, even more beautiful than a fairy. Tangyuan likes aunt so much!"

The little dumplings spoke softly, Shangguan Yue was very happy and said with a funny smile: "Come on, tell my aunt, are you the legendary little dumplings of Clever Letao?"

"Yeah, aunt, my nickname is Xiao Tangyuan, and it is also the famous Tang Xinyou!"

Hahaha!!!

Shangguan Yue laughed happily, hugged the pink third lady and kissed her constantly, and even presented the jade white jade hairpin on her head to Xiao Tangyuan as a meeting gift.

He asked repeatedly, "Then aunt asked you, do you like your aunt? Is this palace beautiful? What's the difference between it and your Tang Mansion?"

Xiao Tangyuan tilted her head and thought for a while, blinked her big watery eyes, and whispered: "Aunt here is great. There are so many delicious foods. Every room is very beautiful, but there are too many palace people coming and going, so it's so troublesome!

Hey, it’s better for our Tang Mansion... to be more free and warm!"

Upon hearing this, Empress Dowager Zi smiled and said, "This child is so well-behaved and has a nice reputation. Little Tangyuan, do you like Princess Yue?"

Tangyuan nodded and said, "Tangyuan likes the princess and grandmother, too. Will the princess and the princess go to our mansion to be a guest? The dishes cooked by my mother are so delicious!"

Princess Yue smiled and said, "Oh, the Queen Mother asked, aunt, can I live with you?"

"Oh? Grandma the Queen Mother, Aunt Princess, do you have time to go to my house to play? Uh... But if you come, you have to say in advance. Tangyuan will clean up the bedroom and let you sleep on the big soft couch. Tangyuan sleeps on the couch to accompany you! Also, do Aunt think Tangyuan looks good?"

Shangguan Yue smiled and said, "It looks good, even my aunt is envious!"

Tangyuan blinked and said seriously: "Auntie, I will give you some beauty Yujing pills. Tangyuan is developed by himself. Auntie, you will become more and more beautiful after eating it!"

"Mom, am I right?" Xiao Tangyuan hugged her mother cutely, and her black grape-like eyes clearly shone with a cunning look, but no one noticed it.

Shangguan Yue rubbed the top of Xiao Tangyuan's hair and smiled gently, "Okay, Xiao Tangyuan is so amazing, aunt is waiting for your secret beauty pill!"

After saying that, Shangguan Yue kissed Tang Yuan's little face again, and then said leisurely. Before leaving, her eyes were fascinated and said, "Mr. Tang, I am optimistic about you and must be happy forever!"

Tang Size held his little daughter in one hand and his wife Liu Fengyun in the other hand. He knelt down with great gratitude to Shangguan Yue, who was gradually moving away. Empress Dowager Zi was displeased and left with her sleeves.

Interestingly, Empress Dowager Zi looked back at the little Tangyuan and said meaningfully: "Mr. Tang has such a smart girl, the Tang family will be glorious in the future!"
