must have fun

Everyone looked towards Sheng Sheng at the same time, and the person who made the noise was Liang Zhengxu, the Hanlin attendant who was favored by the emperor.

He has a face like beautiful jade, and looks talented. He is dressed in a scarlet robe skirt lined with a white flower robe, tied with a large belt, and then tied with a leather belt to cover his knees. He wears black leather shoes on his feet and holds a wat board in his hand. The hat is impartial, standing among the crowd, like standing out from the crowd.

In addition, he was named Qinglin's 14th year champion in the new discipline, but he was only 20 years old at that time.

Therefore, the ministers generally looked at him highly, and he had a good reputation in the officialdom.

He saw that everyone's eyes were on him. Although he was not particularly close to every official here, he still kindly reminded him: "Everyone, this is not a place to talk, so be careful."

After being reminded by him, all the ministers realized that they had just walked out of the imperial study, and the partition wall has ears. If they didn't notice for a while, they almost made a big mistake. They couldn't help but thank Liang Zhengxu one after another, and agreed that if they were free in the future, they would definitely invite Liang Shilang Jia As a guest at the banquet, thank you for reminding me.

After the politeness, the heads of the gathered people scattered, each took their leave, and walked outside the palace.

Turning his eyes back to the imperial study room, the emperor and Xuancheng looked at each other in silence, and the fallen screen was lifted up at some point.

Lu Meng patted the dragon seat beside him, beckoning Xuan Cheng to sit beside him.

Xuancheng was unwilling, like a wooden stake stuck in front of her father, neither speaking nor leaving.

The two faced each other for less than a cup of tea, and as usual, the emperor was the first to lose.

Lu Meng felt that as long as this daughter appeared in front of him, he would sigh much more than usual, stroked his beard, and said: "If you are unhappy, just say it."

Glancing at Zuo Huai, he asked him to dismiss the servant, he wanted to talk to Xuancheng alone.

Xuancheng didn't answer, still exuding resentment.

In today's world, she is the only person who can deflate the Ninety-Five Supreme and is still alive.

Lu Meng was at a loss what to do with her, and he didn't care if she could listen or not, so he directly said earnestly: "You are now sixteen years old, it's time to choose a son-in-law."

"Your aunt, my own sister, gave birth to your cousin Yuanqiao when you were your age. Do you still think you are young?"

"Although the emperor's daughter is not worried about getting married, if you delay for a few more years, look at the young ministers of civil and military affairs in the Manchu Dynasty, which one will be suitable for you?"

He was right. In this era, most men get married early, and pay attention to starting a family first and then starting a career.At the age of twelve or thirteen, parents will start to see suitable in-laws.By the time they become successful and famous, most of them have already married and had children.

Even among the current courtiers, the number of unmarried and suitable for Xuancheng's age does not exceed ten fingers.

In terms of Marquis, there are quite a few unmarried heirs, but they are not within the scope of Lu Meng's choice of son-in-law for Xuancheng.

Other princesses may be able to, but Xuancheng can't. Xuancheng's elder brother is the prince, the future emperor.He didn't want Xuancheng to become a victim of the flow of power.

"Even if you don't plan to marry right now, you can still look at each other first. If you are satisfied, Father will also observe his character for you."

These words and these things should have been said and done by Xuancheng's mother, but Xuancheng and the prince's mother passed away early.

After his death, for some reason, Lu Meng did not establish another queen, and he was not at ease in handing over the prince and Xuancheng to other concubines in the harem to raise him, so he shouldered the responsibility of his parents at the same time.

Xuancheng is considerate of her father's hard work, but she just doesn't want to be forced to marry someone she doesn't like.The so-called children and parents are natural enemies, and the reason is just that.

"You are a princess, and you are a role model for daughters in the world. If you don't marry at the right age, do you know how people in the world will treat you and the emperor?"

Lu Meng first understood it with emotion, and then moved it with reason.That being said, if such rumors really arise, he will be the first to never tolerate them.

"Your behavior today is very inappropriate. How can a woman do such a rude thing like overturning the screen under the eyes of everyone?" Lu Meng reprimanded with a straight face.

Xuancheng frowned and moved his lips, trying to explain that he didn't do it on purpose.

Lu Meng didn't need to listen to the explanation, he found a reason for her first, and said: "I know, you may not be satisfied with these young ministers. I think that Liang Zhengxu is not bad? Have you noticed?"

Who is Liang Zhengxu?Xuancheng thought for a long time, but couldn't find the impression corresponding to this name in his mind, pouted, still unwilling to talk to Lu Meng, and shook his head.

She never thought that her father still had such a long-winded side. At this moment, her feet were numb, and she didn't dare to be discouraged. She could only secretly turn her ankle behind her back, with an unconvinced look on her face.

No matter how subtle her movements were, she was still noticed by Lu Meng's sharp eyes, and she didn't mention her feelings.

He thought for a while, then took a step back, and said: "Then it's better to wait until now. In the midst of Lu Meng's good and bad words that she can't refute every sentence, and under various reasons of "understanding the righteousness", Xuancheng finally realized that he had to marry. fact.

She gradually relaxed, and murmured: "Even if I want to marry, I don't want to marry those pedantic and sour ministers." Before she finished speaking, a crimson cloud appeared on her face.

"Then tell Father, what kind of person do you want to marry?" Lu Meng frowned.

Xuancheng lowered his eyes, and his curved eyelashes fluttered lightly like the wings of a butterfly. Various thoughts and conditions rolled through his mind, and before he had time to think about it, he casually listed the requirements that came to mind.

If she had seriously considered these conditions and thoughts, and added them together, she would find that there was a clear image in her heart.

And all her requirements are extended from the advantages of this image.

First of all, the first and most important one.

"Xuancheng's son-in-law, if he wants to stick to one end, he can only have me as a wife."

She doesn't want to be jealous like those women and face heads in the harem, just to get a little favor from her father.

This condition is reasonable and inevitable.She is the majestic princess of Dayu, if she disagrees, how dare her husband take a concubine behind her back?

"It's not difficult, I..." He would not allow Xuancheng's son-in-law to have three wives and four concubines.Before Lu Meng finished speaking, he was interrupted by Xuancheng.

"What the daughter said is "one-for-one and one-for-all", not what my father understands for one-for-one." Xuan Cheng said solemnly.

Facing the puzzled expression of the emperor, she continued: "My daughter wants the other party to have a clean relationship, even the person she liked before is not allowed."

After hearing this, the emperor regretted it. He shouldn't have shown a puzzled expression and let Xuancheng explain so clearly.

The majestic Ninety-Five Lord, the ruler of a country, actually imagined that God could give him a pair of ears that had never heard such words at this time.

This condition is really harsh.

Which man in the world would be so clean?Even if they didn't want it, their parents forced maidservants into their rooms in order to extend their children and grandchildren.

The condition of Xuancheng can almost knock down three-quarters of the men in Dayu, not to mention the sons of the high-ranking officials and marquises.

Xuancheng walked behind Lu Meng, wrapped his arms around his shoulders, and said coquettishly: "Father, think about it. If it is rounded up, it means wearing a cuckold when you are not married. Why is it that in this world, women are only required to be as good as jade before marriage, while men? Can she take a concubine at will? She must not be wronged like this.

Lu Meng was easily induced by Xuancheng, and the scene of making his daughter wronged appeared in his mind, blowing his beard and staring: "He dares!"

Xuancheng secretly rejoiced at his father's way of doing things.

"Furthermore, Xuancheng's son-in-law must not be ugly." Before Lu Meng could ask why, Xuancheng explained the reason first: "If the son-in-law is too ugly, Xuancheng will not be able to face him peacefully day and night. .” To put it bluntly, it’s disgust.

Lu Meng wanted to persuade the man not to just look at his appearance, but when he saw Xuan Cheng's expression of indifference, he had no choice but to swallow it back.

In order to marry his daughter smoothly, he endured.

He nodded reluctantly: "It's not difficult..."

Xuancheng pushed forward, and made several impossible demands one after another.

As the emperor listened, his smile gradually disappeared.He thought that his daughter could understand the good intentions of the old father, but in the end she agreed to marry him.

On the other side, he came up with all kinds of rules and regulations to limit the candidates for his son-in-law. Isn't this a trick to refuse marriage?

If it weren't for a god, who would have achieved such outrageous conditions.

He knew very well that his daughter's pickiness was completely inherited from him.But even if there is such a person, the world is so big, where can he find a man who can meet the requirements?

No matter how complicated his thoughts were, he still had a pleasant expression on his face, and said, "Has Xuancheng ever thought that it is impossible for such a man to exist in Dayu?"

"Why not?" Xuancheng let go of his father, widened his eyes, and argued.

"Could it be that Xuancheng already has a clear candidate in mind?" The emperor's experienced eyes seemed to see Xuancheng clearly.

He waved his wide sleeves: "It's better to tell the father directly. If the other party is worthy of my Xuancheng, the father will agree.

Save you wasting so much saliva, do you want to take the father into the ditch? "

Chapter 23 Xuancheng lost his voice for a while, and even exposed his deepest thoughts, and quickly covered up his words flashingly: "Xuancheng said that the world is so big that there are no surprises. Even though Xuancheng's requirements are harsh, Xuancheng doesn't believe that there will be no such thing people."

She hasn't figured out what she wants, so how can she tell her father.

"Really?" Lu Meng questioned her statement very much, and asked tentatively: "Could it be that Xuancheng can't find such a person, so he won't marry?"

Just as Xuancheng had this intention, he straightened his waist and said confidently: "If Xuancheng can't find such a person, I would rather the Qingdeng Ancient Buddha live his life, and I will definitely not marry someone I don't like."

Lu Meng sighed, it's not all good for her daughter to be too much like him, so he replied helplessly: "Then Father will believe in the method for you."

After Xuancheng happily left, Lu Meng tapped the handle on the dragon chair, and the whole imperial study was quiet, only the sound of tapping could be heard.

"Zuo Huai, call the prince here." He said in a deep voice.

He wants to find out the person he likes in Xuancheng with his own hands.Dare to steal his daughter's heart without his permission under his nose, how daring the other party is!

The majesty of the royal family cannot be trampled on!

It is impossible not to marry, and it is impossible to marry.A father who regards his daughter as the apple of his eye is undoubtedly exposed to the complicated and contradictory emotions when facing the marriage of his daughter.

When the crown prince came out of the imperial study, he looked around and no one was paying attention, he raised his sleeve and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead due to nervousness.

Under the coercion and temptation of his father, he almost revealed his sister's secret, but at least he covered it up.

He didn't know what his sister said in front of his father, which made his father suddenly suspicious.According to his father's temperament, it might not be so easy to believe what he said. Fortunately, he was prepared in advance, sealed up the rumors that had spread around before, and also supported his left companion, so that his father would not hear any rumors.

He thought for a while, no, he had to warn his sister, otherwise, when the father became angry, she would not be the only one to blame.

In addition, he was a little confused. Since his father recovered from his illness, he seemed to have changed his attitude towards him, and his eyes were not as generous as before. I don't know why?Or is he overthinking?

Shu Dianhe stepped into the boundary of Kyoto for the second time on horseback, and everything here was the same as before she left.

In four months, the imperial capital has not changed a bit, but the people who watched this scene have undergone major changes, and their moods are completely different from the past.

If it is said that when Shu Dianhe came for the first time, Shu Dianhe might still be a little curious about the land, but for the second time, in Shu Dianhe's eyes, this imperial capital has become a huge secret box that hides the mystery of her life experience.

She still had the letter Feng Huanlin told her to Feng Huansen in her arms.Her first plan when she came back to Kyoto was to visit Feng Huansen with a letter.

There is no rush right now, she needs to find an inn first.

After finding the inn, at noon, Shu Dian came all the way, and his stomach was already empty.

Picking a restaurant that looks good on the outside, Shu Dianhe didn't like to be crowded, so he asked Xiaoer if there was a quiet corner.

She came just in time, Xiaoer invited her to the second floor of the restaurant.

Half of the second floor is a private room, and the other half is furnished with sparse tables and chairs. Because it is close to the window, the view can cover the entire long street. It is quieter than the noisy environment downstairs, and the price is also more expensive than downstairs.

Shu Dianhe didn't mind, her master left her enough silver taels for her to live an ordinary life, besides, she also has a way of making a living, and she is not afraid of having nothing to eat in her life, so when necessary, she will not deliberately frugal.

There are only two or three people on the entire second floor, each occupying a table.Xiao Er found her a seat alone, with her back against the box and the window next to her.

Shu Dianhe only wanted a bowl of noodles.She has a small appetite, so she can stuff a bowl of noodles no matter how hungry she is.

As soon as the noodles were served, Xiao Er led five or six ordinary-dressed people through the aisle in front of her. She was reaching for chopsticks and didn't pay attention.

The freshly cooked noodles are steaming.Two liang of fine noodles, with clear strips in the golden chicken soup, a spoonful of sauce-colored toppings mixed with hand-shredded chicken strips, and two green blanched vegetables on the side, it makes people appetite just by looking at it.

Shu Dian was in no hurry, took out a clean handkerchief from his sleeve, and carefully wiped off the water stains on the chopsticks.People who have practiced medicine for a long time are inevitably a little particular.

From the box behind, the greetings of Xiao Er came one after another, the sound of tables and chairs moving, and the sound of several people talking.

It wasn't that Shu Dianhe wanted to listen on purpose, it was because her hearing was so good that there was nothing between a wall.

Shu Dianhe had no intention of prying into other people's private affairs, so he turned a deaf ear to it and focused on dealing with the fine noodles in the bowl.She ate slowly, chewed carefully, and thought about things.

Until she heard a familiar word "Princess Xuancheng" she paused.

The voice in the box was high and low, and it didn't sound real. At first, she thought she was hallucinating.

As a result, the people in the private room continued: "Brother Gao thinks, among the young unmarried officials or the heirs of high-ranking dignitaries in the current court, who is most likely to be selected by the emperor as the son-in-law of Princess Xuancheng?"

Another voice in the box responded to him: "I don't dare to guess the holy will, but the person who can be favored by the emperor must be a dragon and a phoenix among people..." The voice behind the words could not be heard clearly, and Shu Dianhe could roughly guess what the other party said what.

Another person raised his voice and said, "I don't know whether the selected person is a dragon or a phoenix among the people. But if someone is lucky enough to receive the emperor's grace and be able to honor the princess, wouldn't it be easy to get an official promotion, glory and wealth in the future? If so Maybe, we need to fight for it next time.”

His astonishing words were applauded by everyone in the box.

Suddenly, an older man's voice sounded: "Brother Fang's words are wrong, do you think the royal son-in-law will be easy to do?"

"I heard from the little middle-ranking official in the palace that Princess Xuancheng has an arrogant temper, relying on the favor of the emperor and the crown prince, she doesn't have the virtuous and virtuous virtues that women should have. She dances with knives and guns all day long, and goes to the house to expose tiles. As long as she is there Days, there is no peace in the palace. Marrying her, isn't it like holding a hot potato?"

There was a brief silence in the box.

Afterwards, everyone said: "A man can bend and stretch. In order to achieve success, it is worthwhile to marry a tigress."... "The husband is the guide for the wife. Home."…

Such remarks are endless.

Some people even bragged about how he would deal with this unruly and willful princess if he became a son-in-law, so that she would serve tea and water for him obediently.

When Shu Dianhe heard the words, Meifeng couldn't help gathering.Although she doesn't have a deep friendship with the princess, she hates the frivolity towards women that these people say from the bottom of her heart.

She didn't want to hear the next words, and got up to leave.

When she walked downstairs, she suddenly stopped and raised her eyes to look at the second floor.This is the second time she has heard about Princess Xuancheng's son-in-law, and the first time she mentioned it when chatting with Dr. Bing in the palace.

Why do things that have nothing to do with me always let me hear it by such a coincidence?

She recalled the thoughts that were interrupted by the "Princess Xuancheng" just now, and touched the jade lock hanging on her waist with her lower hand.This jade lock belongs to her, not Xuancheng's.The two jade locks were so similar, in order to avoid confusion, she specially tied tassels on her jade lock so that she could hang it around her waist.

Before she came, she had clearly planned her plan to enter Beijing.

I wanted to find an opportunity to return the jade lock to the princess first, and ask her if she knew where the crown prince got the jade lock.Maybe there are clues to her life behind this.

It's just that the princess's daughter's body is always in the palace, the palace walls are deep and deep, and she has been out of the palace for a long time now, how can she enter the palace at will again in a commoner?Without entering the palace, how would she get in touch with the princess?

These two problems lay in front of Shu Dianhe like a moat, Shu Dianhe had no choice but to visit his master's younger brother first before making further plans.

The streets of Kyoto are crowded with people, laughing and laughing, and are very lively, rushing forward like a long winding river that never stops.The stalls of small merchants and hawkers are crowded along the street, displaying a wide variety of commodities.Listening to their boastful cries, it is surprising that some of these unremarkable things come from the Western Regions, some from Mobei, and some from across the ocean.

Shu Dianhe walked through it, and occasionally stopped to look at the novelty objects on the roadside stalls.After all, she grew up in the mountains and never thoroughly experienced the colorful world, so she is prone to curiosity about everything.

She had already asked where the Prime Minister's Mansion was, and planned to visit again tomorrow morning, so she had nothing to do at this time, so she walked to the inn while avoiding the crowds, and took a look.

As long as she doesn't rub shoulders with people, she can still accept it.

Originally, she didn't plan to buy anything, but now she was caught by a hairpin.

That woman's hairpin.

The body of the hairpin is made of red sandalwood, polished smooth, with two circles of silver leaves in a serpentine shape at one end, and the indigo gradient color on the surface of the leaves is baked on by cloisonne.On the leaves, there is also a pure white and flawless shell flower with a little silver in the center, which makes the whole hairpin soft and eye-catching.

Either the peddler was too glib, or she was obsessed with ghosts.It was clearly something she didn't need, but she couldn't take her eyes off it, so she finally paid for the hairpin.

Holding the hairpin in her hand, she continued to walk forward, she was a little dazed.Look carefully, in fact, there is nothing special about this hairpin, and the workmanship and materials are ordinary.I don't understand why I only fancy it among so many things.

But since I bought it, it is not easy to return it.

Shu Dianhe has always kept everything simple, without useless things.She thought about it for a while, wearing women's clothing and wearing this hairpin, she felt weird all over her body.

Since she was a child, she was dressed as a man at the request of her master. After a long time, she got used to it.Sometimes even I forget my real gender.I was also curious about women's accessories and skirt hairpins when I was a child, but I was forced by reality to have little interest at all.

Or give it to someone who can use it.

After thinking about it, the only woman she is familiar with and suitable for this hairpin is the princess who is far away in the sky.

When I was in the palace, I accepted the princess' love many times and was treated kindly by her.Even a dull person should know that this favor must be paid back.

That day in the palace, due to her status, in order to avoid suspicion, she couldn't do anything.

If I am lucky enough to meet the princess again during my trip to Beijing, I must repay this kindness.

It's just that this hairpin is so ordinary, I'm afraid it won't be able to catch the princess' eyes.

Just when she hadn't made a decision in her heart, suddenly a round and fluffy thing stood in front of her, blocking her way.
