"Are you hungry? I'll ask the small kitchen to bring some snacks first." Jiang Huimin felt that Xia Qing didn't eat much at noon, and wanted her to fill her stomach.

Who knows Xia Qing smiled: "Sister, you are here, so you are not hungry."

This little guy has learned to tease people intentionally now, Jiang Huimin broke her chin and kissed her hard.

After the long kiss, both of them felt satisfied. Xia Qing recalled the taste between his lips and tongue, and suddenly thought of something else in his mind.

Jiang Huimin could tell at a glance that she was thinking nonsense again, and asked her, "What are you thinking about?"

"I'm thinking about the prince's choice of concubine."

"Oh?"

Xia Qing hugged a pillow and leaned her head on Jiang Huimin, "The crown prince will choose one from Zhou Yuan and Lin Yi, then Zhou Yuan will enter the palace when she chooses a concubine tomorrow, and if she sees my sister and me, she must remember I'm worried that there will be trouble with today's temple fair."

"Don't worry about this," Jiang Huimin stroked the hairpin on Xia Qing's hair, "not to mention whether it's her or not that you saw today, even if it was, she can't produce evidence that we left the palace."

"Well, but we have to be careful."

The occasion for the crown prince to choose a concubine was arranged at Liu'an Pavilion. The House of Internal Affairs arranged everything early in the morning. The emperor came over accompanied by Feng Xian, Jiang Huimin sat on one side, Xia Qing sat where Jiang Huimin started, and the two were close to each other.

Because Jiang Huimin temporarily reduced the dose of the emperor's medicine, his body is much better now, sitting in the middle and looking at the concubine below.The prince sat on the other side of him, also sitting upright.

The woman Jiang Huimin gave to the emperor also appeared here today. Of course, she is only a nobleman, and she is sitting at the lower end, but the emperor obviously loves her very much, and looks over there from time to time.

The prince was uneasy. He still remembered that yesterday in the East Palace, the Taifu told him once again that he must never go against the emperor's wishes and choose Zhou Yuan, who looks similar to the emperor's concubine.

Tai Fu Yin Yin warned, Zhou Yuan is still young, and you will still have a chance in the future.

At this moment, officials from the Ministry of Rites stepped forward to preside over the ceremony, and two official women stepped forward.

The moment Zhou Yuan entered, the emperor's expression changed significantly.

This Zhou Yuan is so similar to the concubine he favored recently.

The emperor's expression became complicated, Jiang Huimin smiled coldly, I want to see if you still dare to choose Zhou Yuan.

Sure enough, the prince also noticed the slight change in the emperor's expression, thinking of what the Taifu told him in the East Palace yesterday, the prince felt a pain in his heart.

Do you really want to marry the eyes and ears of the imperial concubine?

At this time, the emperor had already asked them a few simple questions, then turned his head and said to the crown prince, "I will choose a concubine for you, which one do you like, you can tell yourself."

The prince gritted his teeth, swallowed the three words "Sister Yuan" abruptly, and replied: "I like Sister Lin Yi."

The emperor showed a satisfied expression, she turned her head to look at Zhou Yuan, looked at Zhou Yuan for a long time, and then said: "The two adults are good at teaching daughters, but after all, it depends on his own idea to choose a concubine for the prince. The candidate for the crown princess has been decided, so let the people in the Ministry of Rites go and combine the horoscopes, and then choose an auspicious day to marry the crown princess."

Lin Yi was very excited, but Zhou Yuan showed no expression, her eyes kept wandering around.

Sitting at the side, Xia Qing could clearly feel that she had glanced at herself several times.

After the crown princess is selected, the other side concubines don't need to be so troublesome, as long as the Ministry of Internal Affairs is responsible for the selection.The emperor was very satisfied with the prince, patted him on the shoulder, and told him a few words that he was going to start a family now, he had to learn to manage things, and the family wanted harmony, so he left in a sedan chair.

The emperor is gone, there is really nothing to do here, Jiang Huimin was about to leave, Zhou Yuan who was on the side suddenly smiled and said: "This is the first time for my daughter to enter the palace. , I wonder if I can take this opportunity to let the courtiers go and have a look?"

She said this quite boldly, Jiang Huimin stared at her, and suddenly smiled, "It's okay, this is the first time I see the two ladies, if you like the peonies in Jingchun Palace, it's okay to take a look."

So Zhou Yuan and Lin Yi followed Jiang Huimin's sedan chair to Jingchun Palace.

The peonies in Jiang Huimin's palace were indeed blooming beautifully, not only that, but other flowers were also blooming very brightly. Lianyue heard that the two ladies were coming early in the morning, so she tidied up everything that should be packed in the palace, and came out early to welcome them.

"The two ladies are really well-dressed today, much prettier than this flower." Lianyue is good at complimenting others. After saying this, Lin Yi and Zhou Yuan were obviously much happier. Lianyue led them along the way. To Jiang Huimin's small garden.

At the very beginning, the two were still walking together, and after a while, Lin Yi and Jiang Huimin walked together.

She had listened to her father's instructions before entering the palace. This time she was selected as the crown princess, and the imperial concubine helped her a lot. No matter what, she should have more contacts with the imperial concubine.

Lin Yi listened to Jiang Huimin talking casually about interesting things in the palace, and she was so happy from ear to ear, while Lian Yue's eyes on the side were fixed on Zhou Yuan.

She knew that this lady was not her own.

Jiang Huimin's garden is really too big. When I was walking around, I suddenly didn't know where Zhou Yuan had gone.

Under the hibiscus flowers at the side, Xia Qing was standing there when a figure flashed behind him.

"Sister Xia." Xia Qing heard the man call her that.

She was not angry, but turned her head, with a distant smile on her lips, "Miss Zhou, I am the emperor's concubine. When you see me, you want to call me your empress. Didn't Taifu Zhou teach you?"

Zhou Yuan also laughed. She took a step forward, grabbed the sleeve of Xia Qing's palace uniform, and stared at her, "But I think, the empress really looks like an old friend?"

"You've got the wrong person." Xia Qing threw her away. This is the first time I met you today, and I never remember such an old friend as you.

"Really? Your Majesty said it was the first time we met, but my daughter seemed to see your Majesty at the temple fair yesterday."

"There are so many similar people in the world, if Miss Zhou wants to have a relationship with me, she doesn't need to lie." Xia Qing said coldly.

She turned around to leave, but Zhou Yuan suddenly came from behind, trying to grab her sleeve, Xia Qing was startled, at this moment a figure just flashed out of the slant, protecting her behind her.

That was Lian Yue. She was looking for Zhou Yuan's shadow just now, but she didn't expect to see her here.

"What does Miss Zhou want to do to our mother?" Lianyue's face was full of anger.

Zhou Yuan just smiled, "Aunt Lianyue is too nervous, I just want to see that your lady looks like an old friend of mine, and there is a red mole on her wrist, I just want to see it."

Lianyue's face was serious, "Ms. Zhao is the emperor's concubine, how can you allow you to move around at will."

Her expression was stern, so Zhou Yuan restrained herself a little, turned and left, and when she returned to Jiang Huimin, she saw Lin Yizheng talking to Jiang Huimin.

She also wanted to go forward to speak, but at this moment Lian Yue suddenly appeared and came forward to give her a blessing, "It's getting late, Miss Lin has to prepare for the dowry when she goes back, the two girls should go back home today."

This is what it means to see off guests. Zhou Yuan couldn't continue to rely on her, but Lin Yi felt blessed, and immediately said that she was tired, so she went back first, so Lian Yue arranged for a few eunuchs to send them back to the palace.

It is not a small matter for the crown prince to accept the concubine. Jiang Huimin was not idle when he returned to the palace at night. He was busy outside for a long time before returning to the bedroom.

As soon as she entered the door, she saw Xia Qing sitting there, lost in thought.The window was still open, and she didn't notice the wind blowing in.

Jiang Huimin closed the window casually, sat beside her, and wrapped her arms around her, "What's wrong?"

Xia Qing was stunned for a long time before saying, "Zhou Yuan seems to recognize me today."

Jiang Huimin frowned when she heard what happened today, and she asked, "Did you know her before?"
