Every year when the season changes, Dianzhong Province will send the clothes and jewelry of the harem concubines to the seasons, but this has a fixed amount, and everyone in the palace will not rely on this point to live their lives.
Emperor Changlong was not a harsh emperor to the harem, and at this time, he would also give jewelry to the concubines. Dajin has a vast territory and fertile land. Many small countries around it pay tribute every year in order to be able to rely on Dajin. Jewelry is also one of them.
Among the jewels of this year, there are some good things for the concubine. She hopes that Her Majesty can give these jewels to her every day, but she can’t wait for the left or wait for the right. People went to Zhao Sancai, the former chief manager to inquire.
"Those jewelry." Zhao Sancai smiled at the emperor's emperor at the Emerald Palace. "His Royal Highness liked it two days ago. His Majesty let his Highness take it away. I wonder why my mother suddenly asked about such small things?"
The smile on the female officer's face froze, and those things were all placed in His Majesty's private library, to whom it was His Majesty's business. She quickly shook her head and said: "It turns out that the mother was originally worried that those good things were put in the library, and no one had used them for a long time. It would be great if His Royal Highness liked it."
Returning to Lincui Palace, the female officer told the matter to Xianfei.
"Prince is a man, what do you want those jewelry for?"
"The slave-servant heard that the prince is going to... save and marry his wife's family."
"He is a prince, His Majesty has always been biased towards him. What family do he need to save?" Xian Fei turned blue, and there was a small country around him that was best at making hairpin rings. Xian Fei most likes the jewelry of this country, Prince But all the good things were taken away, it was clear that she could not get along with her intentionally.
"Ma'am, although the jewelry you like was picked up by the prince, you don't need to be angry. Because several other ladies like them, they were also picked up by the prince." The female officer quickly added two sentences.
"Does this palace still have to thank him, there is no difference?" Xian Fei asked the female officer with a straight face.
"Slave, slave-servant doesn't mean that."
The princess sneered. The prince did not even make up the prince. His majesty thought about saving him. As her eldest son, her family's Hao'er has appointed Lin's daughter as the princess. Why doesn't Her Majesty give her a family member?
The concubine was unhappy and asked the to call the king into the palace: "What happened to you and the girl from the Lin family?"
"What else?" King Ying took a sip from the tea cup and said in a faint tone, "She wants to be a princess, and her son needs to marry the princess, just fine."
"Nonsense." Xian Fei heard her son's careless tone and couldn't help saying, "Lin Yuan is Lin Zhou's daughter. Lin Zhou has always been clean and clear, how can his daughter be a man who wants to be rich and rich?"
The King of England did not argue with the concubine and nodded: "Mother Concubine said yes."
Seeing his perfunctory attitude, the concubine said, "Lin Yun is outstanding in appearance and talented. The most important thing is that she is also the cousin of the four princes. Marrying her is equivalent to pulling the power of the four princes to our side. For you, it is a matter of benefit and harmlessness."
The king bowed his head and said nothing.
The princess wanted to say, did he remember the girl from the Hua family who fell down when the wind blows, but knew that this should not be said, so he suffocated his stomach and said nothing.
"Concubine, Erchen will go to the horse farm this afternoon. If you have nothing else to do, the son will leave first." The King of England stood up and gave a gift to the concubine and prepared to go out.
"Wait." The princess took out a thin cloak from the house. "The weather has been warming up in the past two days. Those thick cloaks are not comfortable to wear. I made a cloak for you. You give it a try."
"Thank you Mother." The King's eyes gradually softened, and he put his cloak on his body. "These needlework are handed over to others, and the mother concubine should not be tired of herself."
"The mother princess knows." The princess helped the king sort out his clothes and boasted, "My son was born with great martial arts, and is worthy of your majesty's child."
Listening to the praise of the biological mother, the king suddenly felt confident that he was hundreds of times more beautiful than the other brothers.
Mothers, looking at their children, always have trouble seeing problems.
Hualili received a whole box of jewellery within two days, and received another box of gifts from the East Palace.
She opened the lid of the suitcase, looked at all the jewels in it, took a deep breath, and said to the servants of the East Palace: "Grandpas, has he been well recently?"
"Thank you, Lord, for your concern. Your Highness has been very good lately."
Since it is normal, why should she be given so many good things? The gold and silver jewelry she had removed from the camp of the Prince Ava was not so shiny.
"Regardless of the merits, your kindness and courtesy of His Royal Highness are led by the heart, but these things...
"Please ask the master to rest assured." The servant said, "Your Highness said before the slaves came. These things are useless to him. If the master does not accept it, he can only let the pearl fall. The flower is near. , The lord of the country is so fragrant, how can you not have jewelry that is worthy of you?"
"Thank you, Your Highness." Hua Liuli thought for a while, that Awa can bring so many gold and silver jewelry out of the battle. The prince is the second honorable man of Dajin. These things may not really be anything to him?
"The lord likes it." The servant left the hurriedly sip without even taking a sip of tea.
When Hua Yingting and Wei Mingyue learned about the incident, they did not express any opinion, and only let Hua Liuli pick it up. If she is married in the future, she will use it as a dowry. If she doesn't want to marry, she will play by herself.
I got a bunch of jewellery flowers and glazes, and the next day it was rare to get up early in the morning to ride the carriage to the Wenqu Xing Temple in the suburbs of Beijing.
When she arrived, she discovered that there was a long queue outside the Wenqu Xing Temple. Some scholars even took books and water bags in order to occupy a good position. They looked like they had been through the whole night.
Hua Liuli began to reflect, and compared with these devout scholars, from time to time he was not sincere enough.
As soon as she got out of the carriage, she saw someone holding a sign with the words "Stop five lines of silver", and couldn't help whispering to her iris road, "Is there such a thing?"
"There are many things that can be changed in the capital of Beijing." Iris whispered, "But many scholars feel that queuing is more sincere, and five or two silver is too expensive, and few people will spend money to avoid queuing."
Hua Liuli glanced at the long queue, and then at the sign that skipped the line, without hesitation: "Give silver."
The people in Wenqu Xing Temple saw that Liuli came out of the carriage, and they knew that the rich and wealthy came. After Iris paid him money, he took the master and servants to the temple with enthusiasm.
Entering the temple, the temple wished him personally, and led Hualili to incense and make a wish.
"Dearest, Chun Wei will open the day after tomorrow. I can pray for the candidates on the day of Chun Wei. I wish him the favor of Wenquxing and his extraordinary performance."
"Oh?"
"But if you wish Xingjun to bless, you always have to offer sacrifices. If you are interested, you only need to spend 18 or two silvers to sacrifice Xingjun. This temple is moved by the sincerity of the nobles and is willing to pray for your relatives and friends on the same day."
Hualili took eighteen or two silvers, bought some prayer lamps, prayer pens and the like, and turned to go to face a girl wearing a lake green tunic.
She has a little impression of this girl. She seems to like to follow behind the head of Jiamin County. She is the daughter of the Yao family. What is Yao called?
"Sovereign Lord." The girl from the Yao family came to Hualili and blessed her eyes. She glanced at the top champion in Hualili's hand, and her smile became a little strange.
Hua Liuli smiled softly at the girl Yao: "The girl also came to pray for the family?"
"My elder brother is the leader of Qiu Wei in the capital. This time, I will be able to make the title of the gold list." Yao girl said in a tone. "I heard that Qinghanzhou has difficult conditions and very few students. The title of the gold list will win glory for the family."
"It's just that learning is not a day's work. Temporarily holding Buddha's feet is self-deceiving." Yao girl Wen Wan smiled, "The master should not be too superstitious."
"Miss Yao said it rightly, but I am not holding the feet of Buddha, but the feet of Wenquxing. What if Xingjun sees me in the Huajia era and is willing to bless my brother?" Hua Liuli clutched her mouth and chuckled, "Miss Yao If you don’t believe this, why come here?"
"You..." Yao girl glared at Hualili, turned away and went out.
"Miao Zhu, Miss Yao is in a bad mood. I will pay for her blessing." Hua Liuli smiled and said, "I wish Yao Gongzi the banner to win and be on the list."
"Nobles are really kind."
Girl Yao was so angry that she almost vomited blood. She turned to look and found that Hua Liuli was still smiling at her, her smile was gentle and kind.
Obviously, the other party said nothing bad, but at this moment, Yao girl felt like she had lost, and it was unclear where she lost.
"The girls in the capital look really good and look angry." After riding in the carriage, Hualili smiled and smiled, "The Lord Jiamin and her friends are really fun."
"Sovereign, please calm down, the slave-maid is afraid that you will be blocked and yelled at." Iris smiled helplessly.
"They dare to scold, and I dare to faint." Hua Liuli leaned lazily against the car wall. "My body is very weak and I can't breathe."
iris:"……"
After the governor entered the capital, he did not know whose nightmare.
On Chun Wei's day, all four of the Hua family got up early.
Hua Yingting put on a robe for Hua Changkong: "Dad fought many times on the battlefield, and he was countless angry. What evil demons will not invade. I will put on a robe for you to keep you away from bad luck."
"Yes." Wei Mingyue made good hair for the flowers. "The mother is the most powerful female general in Dajin. If your mother combs your hair, it is equivalent to the Buddha giving you light."
Hua Changkong: "..."
The mother's narcissism can't be cured.
"Third Brother, don't be stressed." Hua Liuli put the rucksack with the examination equipment in Hua Changkong's hands. "Anyway, our two Hou Ye, a county master, even if you can't get a good ranking, we can put You are well raised."
If you don’t have a good exam, you will go home and have a soft meal? !
For a time, it took a long time to know whether he should relax or be nervous.
The four people walked out of the gate and Huahuali took out a small flag with a big slap in the sleeve cage after Hualong took a ride in the carriage.
"Daughtergirl, when did you make a small flag of the Huajia Army?" Hua Yingting looked at the small flag swaying in the morning wind doubtfully. "What's the use of inserting this thing?"
"It implies that the flag is winning." Hua Liuli patted the horse in the cart. "Ma, ma, ma, you must bless my third brother to success."
"It makes sense that our good girl is really smart."
The flowers sitting in the carriage were speechless.
There are a bunch of people who never pray to incense on weekdays, and ask God's family to worship Buddha temporarily. He is helpless and moved.
This kind of affection for the family is willing to give up principle, no one can bear to destroy.
The family sent Hua Changkong to the outside of the tribute courtyard. Hua Changkong looked at his family: "Father, mother, little girl, I went in."
"Huh." Hua Liuli nodded. "No matter what, San Ge is the best San Ge."
Hua Changkong smiled and reached out and patted Hualili's head: "Little sister is also the best sister."
He saluted his family and turned to the gate of Gongyuan.
After Hua Changkong was confirmed by the gatekeeper that there was nothing to cheat on, he entered the door and the smile on the face of Huajia's three faces was put away.
"Dad, mother, I'm a little nervous." Hua Liuli whispered, "I heard that there are candidates, and I'm crazy after half the exam."
"Your 3rd brother learned martial arts since he was a child, and he didn't force him to get merits. There shouldn't be such things." Hua Yingting finished this sentence, somewhat unsure, turned to look at Wei Mingyue: "Ma'am, dont you agree?"
"Huh." Wei Mingyue nodded, looking like the calmest one of the three, but the fist she unconsciously held up betrayed her.
Outside the tribute courtyard, there were crowds of people who sent the exams, and the government office in Jingzhao prefecture was afraid that the crowd would cause quarrels and sent many people to stay here. Jing Zhaoyin was also worried that the government of Jingzhao could not overwhelm people. He also borrowed some people from Dali Temple.
In order to borrow people at Dali Temple, Jing Zhao Yin Zuzu squatted at the entrance of Zhang Shuo’s house in Dali Temple for a period of three days. Originally, Zhang Shuo was unwilling to let go, until a few days ago he accidentally removed his hat and was seen by Zhang Shuo. The other party agreed with compassion.
Chun Wei is every three years. These candidates who came from all over the country are famous local students. Jing Zhaoyin did not dare to care, and stayed here with Yasha before dawn.
For this imperial examination, Jing Zhaoyin, Bingbei, Dali Temple, Guozijian, and Hube were so busy that they were afraid of any accidents.
The first day they came to patrol, they saw Hua Yingting staying outside the Gongyuan.
The next day they came to patrol, they saw Hua Yingting sitting on the bench outside with a small bench.
On the third day they came to patrol, Hua Yingting came again and brought their own food.
Hushu Shangshu Cao Jinbo happened to meet Hua Yingting several times and couldn't help but ask why Hua Yingting was so busy and kept at the gate of Gongyuan every day.
The latter thought, although Hua Yingting still retains the title of general, he did not control the military power of Beijing and the surrounding counties. The crown prince is only an honorary title, unless the emperor specifically called him to the dynasty, otherwise the dynasty would not be used on weekdays.
With such a thought, Cao Jinbo's mood suddenly became complicated. Are the generals who have made great achievements now only able to do nothing like the idle aristocrats in Beijing?
He was about to step forward and have a few words with Hua Yingting, and he saw that the carriage curtain parked next to Hua Yingting moved, and a white and delicate hand lifted the curtain up.
A little girl came out of the carriage and was the owner of Fushou County. Cao Jinbo remembered his friend Huizhi's recent letters to him, mentioning the Huajia girl several times. She is a good girl with a hard heart and a kind heart.
He hesitated for a moment, but said: "I have seen the general, the lord."
"What general, now that the old man has been dismissed and returned to the field, Cao Shangshu calls me old flower." Hua Yingting stood up from the stool and let the little man hold the things in his hand, said to the flower Liuli, "Liuli, this is the household Lord Shang Shu Cao Jinbo Cao."
Looking at Hua Yingting's beautiful face, Cao Jinbo, who was a few years old, had a mixed mood. Hua Yingting calls himself an old man, what is he?
"Master Cao." Hua Liuli blessed herself.
"Dare not accept the courtesan's courtesy." Cao Jinbo hurried back to the ceremony. Although Hualili was a junior, he was a knight of the emperor's pro.
"She is a child, what is unacceptable for you to salute." Hua Yingting pointed to the closed gate of Gongyuan, "Cao Shangshu, why are you here?"
Cao Jinbo laughed, he appeared every day for the past three days, but Hua Yingting was unaware? After explaining the reason, he couldn't help looking at Hua Liuli a few more times.
The little girl didn't speak much, she knew politeness, and she didn't have the arrogance of the master. How can Hui Zhi say that other girls are hard-hearted and soft-hearted, clearly a flattering girl, and a little shy.
After talking with Hua Yingting, Cao Jinbo just walked out of the distance. He usually made friends with him and took him to the corner. He whispered, "How do you talk with Hua Yingting for so long at the gate of Gongyuan?"
"What's wrong with this?" Cao Jinbo asked back.
"Naturally wrong." Friends said, "Do you know that Your Majesty had originally asked the Hua family daughter to marry the King, but in the end, he decided to give the Lin family daughter to the King?"
Cao Jinbo frowned.
"Your Majesty has already been suspicious of the Flower Family. You are talking with Hua Yingting at the gate of the Gongyuan, under the eyes of everyone, is it not a handle?" Friends said worriedly, "When Your Majesty liquidates the Flower Family, you will know. Someone framed you with the things of today."
Hearing this, Cao Jinbo felt a little uncomfortable. In order to guard the Dajin, the Hua Family has been devoted to their duties all these years. When General Wei was still pregnant, he took soldiers to the border. Now that the war is level, no one dares to commit the majesty of the Jin Dynasty, but the Huajia status is embarrassed.
This should not be the case for a hero's life.
He turned his head to look at Hua Yingting, who was waiting at the gate of Gongyuan. When he saw his daughter, he was holding a plate of cut fruit before him. Such a warm and ordinary scene made him feel sour.
"But please... have a clear conscience." Cao Jinbo said, "Thank you Brother Wang for reminding me that I have a heart in mind."
"It's better if you have a few." Friends sighed, "Huajia... I'm afraid the scenery will not last for a few years."
Chun Wei was not over yet. Several fainted candidates were taken out, and the medical officer and yaman who were guarding them hurried away for treatment. Hua Liuli looked up and down in heart, and simply walked out to breathe.
There are many food stalls outside, all kinds of flavors are crowded together, creating a lively fireworks taste. Several fake priests sat on the street corner pretending to be fortune tellers for the restless examiners.
Through the lively alley, Hua Liuli met the girl of the Yao family again, and the other party also held the charm just asked from the Taoist.
He said that he didn't believe in praying to God, but he was very active in seeking secrets in private.
The eyes of the two meet in the air, and the steam of snacks lingers in the air, giving birth to an unspeakable embarrassing atmosphere.
At this moment, Miss Yao could not see the sky, the ground, or the figures in the past. She only saw the absurd smile on Hua Liuli's face.
The other party is laughing at her.
She looked red and felt very embarrassed.
"Are you okay?" She came out from behind and heard the voice of the person coming. Yao girl looked a little better.
"I'm fine, Miss Lin." Girl Yao smiled at Lin Wan, secretly hid the rune in her sleeve, raised her head to salute Hualili, "Good Lord Fushou."
Lin Yun noticed that Hua Liuli, who was standing opposite them, bent his knees slightly: "Good lord."
"The two girls don't need to pay much courtesy." Hua Liuli pretended not to see the embarrassment of Miss Yao. "The two girls are also seeking for the brother in the family?"
"Yeah." Lin Yun didn't know what happened between Miss Yao and Hua Liuli, and said, "Some people say that Taoists on East Street are very effective, and I went to ask Miss Yao together."
"Oh..." Hua Liuli smiled at the girl Yao, with a long voice, "then I wish the two elder brothers a good ranking."
"Thank you Sovereign." Lin Yun smiled lightly on her face. When she saw Hua Liuli, she remembered the embarrassing situation of standing on the observation deck that night on the Yuanyuan Festival.
That could not blame Liuli, she was very clear in her heart, but even so, she could not dilute the embarrassing feeling in her heart.
Some people are born to be unsightly.
"Hua girl." A sedan stopped not far from the three people. The sedan window opened, revealing the prince's handsome face. "The staff here are complicated, and there are three teachers and nine masters. Why are you here?"
"Your Highness." Hua Liuli saw the crown prince, her mouth raised. "My father was attending the exam outside the tribute courtyard. The courtier saw that several candidates had been lifted out. They were so nervous that they just walked out."
The prince saw that she had only brought two servants, and came out of the sedan chair: "Chun Wei will end in a few days. It is not interesting for you to wait here every day. It is better to take you alone in the capital and spend time with you. "
He asked the attendants to bring in two horses and handed the reins of the white horse he used to ride to Hua Liuli: "The weather has recently warmed up. The lord has to ride a horse for a while, should there be no effect on his body?"
Hua Liuli looked at this beautiful white horse, and the liking in her eyes could hardly conceal: "No effect."
The iris behind her lifted her eyelids, seeing that the master of the county was touching the white horse's head with a smile, and dropped her eyelids again.
When Hualili turned over, Iris reached out and helped her: "Master, please be careful."
Hua Liuli coughed twice on her chest: "You don't have to worry, you can't ride a horse in the city, it's okay to ride for a while."
Iris backed away: "Yes."
When Miss Yao saw the prince and Hua Liuli riding a horse, they didn't even look at them. They couldn't help but whispered: "Jiamin is right. Most of this kind of weak woman is a fox."
Lin Yun grinned at the corner of his mouth.
The prince knew that she was the future Princess of England, but his sister-in-law treated her so slowly. Isn't it because of your majesty's partial pain, not looking at the King of England?
Lin Chuang clenched his fists and lowered his eyelids to hide his ambitions.
"Miss Lin, look at that, it's His Royal Highness..." As soon as Miss Yao had finished speaking, she saw the British king riding a horse and chased him in the direction where the Prince and Hua Liuli left.
When they galloped past in front of them, they brought up dust.
Girl Yao looked at the back of the King who never went back, and then looked at the girl next to Lin, silently covering her mouth.
Why can't she fix the problem of cheap mouth? !
The author has something to say: Prince: Alone is a principled man. For example, when retaliating against a woman, the word fair is the most important thing.
Miss Yao: My mouth is cheap, I am professional.
