Datang Nongwang

Chapter 795 Concubine
"Yuan'er, how are you? There are so many young ladies, you don't think you don't like any of them, right?" After the group of women led the young ladies away, the old lady asked Li Chongyuan.

Li Chongyuan rubbed his cheek and replied: "Aniang, it's just taking a concubine, and it's so motivating. If you don't know this, you think we are drafting girls. Aniang, don't do this again after this, Aniang If you really want your child to take a concubine, you can just find a few good-looking, pure-hearted little ladies, and there is no need to mobilize so many teachers."

"Yuan'er, you can't get a wife at the moment, so Aniang wants to choose a better one for you. Since Yuan'er doesn't like these little ladies, then Aniang will listen to Yuaner and find a few more in two days." A little lady came to have a look with Yuan'er." Seeing that Li Chongyuan didn't answer directly, the old lady guessed that Li Chongyuan might not be interested in these thirty or so little ladies.

Li Chongyuan shook his head and said: "Aniang, don't do this anymore. I have taken a fancy to a little lady, and I think it's pretty good, but I don't know if Aniang is interested."

"Fourth brother, fourth brother, which little lady is it? Tell me, let me see if it's the one I like." Wan'er who was on the side heard Li Chongyuan say this, and interrupted anxiously.

The old lady also asked curiously: "Since Yuan'er is interested, let's talk about it with Auntie."

"It's the one from Huaining, Shuzhou. Although this girl's appearance is not the most outstanding, but I saw her resignation just now, and she was decent. My child guessed that this girl is definitely not the daughter of an ordinary family, she might be the daughter of an eunuch." Li Chongyuan didn't make any detours anymore, and replied directly.

Wan'er on the side frowned after hearing Li Chongyuan's words, and said with a look of pity: "Fourth brother, that tall little lady is nice, why does fourth brother not like her?"

"Yuan'er, Wan'er is right. Aniang has also taken a fancy to that tall little lady. Besides, Aniang has also taken a liking to that little lady from Fenzhou. With big buttocks, she must be good at giving birth, and she must Those who can bear children. Yuan'er, what do you think?" the old lady said.

Li Chongyuan gave Wan'er a blank look, and replied to the old lady: "Aniang, although what you said is reasonable, the young lady's family in Fenzhou is a merchant. A few years ago, there was a catastrophe in Fenzhou, and her family The Fenzhou native didn’t even donate any money or food, and based on this alone, she’s not my favorite.”

"As for the tall little lady Wan'er mentioned, she looks pretty good, but that little lady is too tall, and after careful observation, I found that her legs and feet seem to be turning inward." Li Chongyuan continued.

After hearing this, the old lady thought about it carefully, and didn't say anything about his favorite little lady.

On the other hand, Wan'er asked, "Fourth brother, what's wrong with your legs turning inward, many people have their legs turning inward."

"What do you know! That's called bow-legged, which belongs to rickets, and it will be inherited after giving birth to a child." Li Chongyuan replied to Wan'er.

Of course, Li Chongyuan said that rickets can be inherited, but he just didn't want to continue with this.

Bow-legged is a type of rickets.

And rickets will not be passed on to future generations, and Li Chongyuan said this just because he didn't want to talk to Wan'er about the tall little lady.

As for whether the tall little lady had rickets, or whether she had bowed legs, Li Chongyuan didn't know, but judging from the little lady's walking posture, her legs couldn't be closed.

right now.

There are many people with bow legs.

There are also many people with rickets.

This is typically caused by a lack of vitamin D, and of course some are congenital.

Under the current conditions, the poor generally suffer from rickets.

The child lacks nutrition, also formed rickets.

This is also something that can't be helped, in a word, poor.

The concubine selection meeting has come to an end.

Li Chongyuan took a fancy to a young lady from Huaining, Shuzhou, and the old lady didn't advocate for the young lady she liked any more.

Before leaving the house, the old lady warned: "Yuan'er, come back and lie down the day after tomorrow, and see what you need to prepare, so as not to embarrass that little lady."

"Okay, Auntie, I got it. I'll go to Steward Qi to discuss it later. After a few days, I'll bring that little lady into the mansion." Li Chongyuan nodded in response.

The old lady didn't realize how low a concubine's status was.

At least, in the eyes of the old lady, taking a concubine for Li Chongyuan is as important as marrying a wife.

after all.

The matter of marrying a wife cannot be changed at present, we can only wait and delay, to see when Li Shimin can take back the imperial decree, and put an end to the idea of ​​giving Li Daliang's daughter Li Hui as Li Chongyuan's wife.

Otherwise, the matter of Li Chongyuan marrying a wife can only be postponed indefinitely.

and so.

The old lady thought about Li Chongyuan taking a concubine, so she had to pay more attention.

In this way, if she can hold a grandson in her arms, the old lady will feel at ease and don't have to worry about Li Chongyuan's marriage anymore.

As for whether the grandson will be a concubine or a concubine after birth, the old lady no longer thinks about it.

Right in front of you, isn't there just one person, so why bother.

A few days later.

Li Chongyuan returned to Chang'an from Lizhuang again.

This time.

Li Chongyuan returned to Chang'an, naturally because of the matter of taking concubines.

The day has been selected.

As soon as the day came, the other party would send the little lady to the Prince's Mansion of Xisha County, and Li Chongyuan had completed the matter of taking a concubine.

At the moment, taking a concubine is not like in TV dramas, where you have to carry a sedan chair and care about who plays and sings.

All kinds of gifts were also prepared and sent over.

Although the old lady has made arrangements for these things, most of the things have to be handled and completed by Qi Huo, the housekeeper.

Qi Huo was very concerned about the fact that his master wanted to take a concubine.

Although Qi Huo felt a little uncomfortable, he thought that his master took a concubine first instead of marrying a wife first, which made him very unwilling.

But there is no way to be unwilling, who let Li Shimin's marriage decree still exist.

On the eighteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, the hour is the hour.

A horse-drawn carriage ushered in outside Xisha County Prince's Mansion.

At midnight, the gates of Chang'an City had long been closed, and the gates of all the lifangs had been closed long ago.

but.

If someone's family has a very urgent matter, or a funeral, etc., the gate of the square will be opened conveniently.

But today it was Li Chongyuan from Xisha County Prince's Mansion who was taking a concubine, the gate of this Xiuzhen workshop had been notified long ago, and only when Li Chongyuan's concubine entered the workshop could the gate be closed.

On the carriage, a well-dressed young lady was sitting at the moment.

With the support of the matchmaker, the little lady got out of the carriage, and was greeted by Qi Huo and others, and walked into the Xisha County Prince's Mansion.

There is no banquet.

There are no guests.

There is no natal family to send off.

There is no Fengguanxiapei either.

Some are just red candles and green robes.

Under the help of Qi Huo and others, they welcomed the young lady into the Prince's Mansion of Xisha County and sent her to Li Chongyuan's room.

From today onwards, this little lady will be Li Chongyuan's concubine.

at this time.

Li Chongyuan sat in the back hall, waiting for Qi to come back to life.

After a long time, Qi Huo arranged everything, and then came to the back hall from the backyard, "Xiao Langjun, it has been settled."

"Well, I see. You sit down first, I have something to ask you." Li Chongyuan pointed to a chair.

Qi Huo was puzzled, so he followed Li Chongyuan's finger and sat down.

Li Chongyuan looked at Qi Huo and asked: "I'm a little curious, why do I take a concubine at night? Not during the day?"

"It turns out that Mr. Xiaolang is asking about this matter. You are taking a concubine, Mr. Xiaolang, so you can only do it after the child's hour. According to the etiquette system, the time for marrying a wife is when the man leaves the mansion to greet his relatives when he is in Shenyou. Welcome brides into the mansion before sunset, and get married after dark. Concubines are not as good as wives, so they can only enter the mansion at midnight and later." Seeing Li Chongyuan's question, Qi Huo replied with a smile.

Li Chongyuan was even more puzzled after hearing this, and asked again: "According to you, this is a ritual system, so why did my elder brother meet my sister-in-law during the daytime, and get married during the daytime?"

"This... Dalang's marriage was arranged by the old lady. Moreover, Dalang is too old, he is the eldest son in the family, and because the little lady he once loved passed away, so he chose to marry during the day. And Mr. Xiaolang, your second and third brothers are the relatives of Dusk." Qi Huo explained.

After hearing this, Li Chongyuan was still a little confused, and immediately asked Qi Huo about these rules.

In Qi Huo's explanation, Li Chongyuan finally understood.

There are several reasons why Li Chongji's eldest brother got married during the day.

One is that the old lady confessed so, and the other is because Li Chongji is too old to delay the marriage.

Three, it is because the little lady Li Chongji once loved passed away, and the two parties were engaged, so they even asked to get married during the day.

And taking a concubine is not a formal trip to marry a wife, so it can only be placed at the time of the child, which is the time of the third watch.

Got Qihuo's explanation.

Li Chongyuan suddenly recalled that in his previous life he heard that people in the south of the Five Ridges got married, it seemed that it was at night.

As for the reason, it is because of the combination of yin and yang.

At the time of Shen You, the man leaves the mansion to meet his relatives, which is Yang, and at sunset, that is, after the sun has set, to welcome the bride into the mansion, this is Yin.

So this is also the meaning of yang to yin.

Also means in the faint cause.

Hunyin is the same as faint marriage, which means marriage and marriage.

It has been explained in the "Book of Songs", but Li Chongyuan didn't know it.

If it wasn't because of his concubine, Li Chongyuan thought that getting married should be during the day and not at night.

After chatting with Qi Huo for a quarter of an hour, Qi Huo saw that Li Chongyuan hadn't moved his butt, so he hurriedly urged: "Little Langjun, a spring night is worth a thousand gold, and it's getting late, please take a rest earlier, Xiaolangjun, don't you?" It's going to be late."

"You!!! That's all, since you have taken a concubine, you can't neglect her." Li Chongyuan still couldn't get used to it.

Although he was distracted for a long time, he was a little timid when he finally arrived.

After all, this is the first time.

This was the case in the previous life, and it is the same in this life, so it is inevitable that I will be timid in my heart.

After taking a few steps, Li Chongyuan stopped naturally when he finally reached the door of his room.

The lights in the room were still on, and the room was full of red, making Li Chongyuan even more timid.

Li Chongyuan, who was outside the room, hesitated for a long time, finally stretched out his hand, pushed the door open, and stepped in.

The door closes.

Li Chongyuan was so timid that he didn't know what to do.

Beside the bed, a little lady in green, with a red silk covering her head, was waiting for Li Chongyuan, the man she liked, to come and take off her red hijab.

The little lady heard that there was movement at the door, but after a long time, she did not see Li Chongyuan approaching, and she felt uneasy and at a loss, her hands kept pulling the scarf in her hand.

'Why hasn't he come, why hasn't he come closer? '

The little lady waited for a long time, but she didn't see any movement again. She felt shy and looked forward to it.

On the other hand, Li Chongyuan stood there as if he didn't move after the door was closed, and he didn't know whether he was in a daze or possessed.

When the little lady was puzzled, there was a long cry in her ears, followed by footsteps.

tension.

look forward to.

shy.

Li Chongyuan approached the bed, he didn't think about whether he could gain or not, he stretched out his right hand and lifted the red silk.

Immediately.

A delicate face appeared in front of Li Chongyuan's eyes, and a pair of big eyes stared blankly at Li Chongyuan, as if saying, why did you come here.

Seeing Hongjuan being lifted by Li Chongyuan, the little lady was stunned for a moment, and then she was so shy that she lowered her head with a red face.

After looking at it for a while, Li Chongyuan moved to the table, sat down and said softly: "I haven't spoken a word to you since I met you that day, so come sit down and have a conversation."

Li Chongyuan wanted to use this method to get rid of his embarrassing situation.

It was the second time Li Chongyuan saw this little lady.

And this second meeting has already become his concubine, Li Chongyuan's face is full of embarrassment.I always feel like I'm doing something unspeakable.

Li Chongyuan recalled that a colleague in his previous life told him about his first experience of going out to find sex. After careful recollection, he felt that he was somewhat similar to that colleague in the previous life.

The little lady was stunned again when she heard Li Chongyuan's words, but she walked over carefully and sat down quietly.

"I remember, you are from Huaining, Shuzhou. Your surname is Ding and your name is Xiangying. How about I call you Xiangying from now on?" Li Chongyuan said, looking at the little lady opposite.

The little lady, blushing like fire, was alone in a room with a strange man. Although she had become Li Chongyuan's concubine, she still couldn't get used to it. She nodded lightly and didn't reply.

Seeing Ding Xiangying, Li Chongyuan didn't say a word, but seeing her red face, his heart became even more preoccupied. He took courage, moved the chair, sat beside Ding Xiangying, stretched out his pig's hand, and grabbed Ding Xiangying. "Don't worry. Although you have become my concubine, Li Chongyuan, I, Li Chongyuan, basically treat everyone the same. There are only good and bad, there is no difference between high and low. Come to think of it, you have heard of me a long time ago." Some things about Li Chongyuan. From now on, I can live here with peace of mind, and I don’t need to be as careful as other concubines.”

"En." Li Chongyuan grabbed Ding Xiangying's hand suddenly, she was even more cowardly, and weakly replied "En."

Li Chongyuan looked at Ding Xiangying, the more he looked at it, the more he liked it, the more he looked at it, the more he wanted to swallow it.

Then, this courage became more and more bold.

When it was Choushi, Li Chongyuan didn't care how shy Ding Xiangying was, hugged Ding Xiangying by the waist, and put her on the bed.

Not caring about etiquette anymore, she stripped off Ding Xiangying's comatose clothes, stripped off her own burden, and pounced on her.
