Mixed with salted fish in Hongwudang

Chapter 469 If you want to be a concubine, you must die as a father first!

Lao Zhu was impatient, and at night he said he wanted to see his grandson-in-law, but within a few days he found an excuse to invite officials with female family members of the right age into the palace, and arranged for Concubine Guo Hui to also have a game.

Lao Zhu just accompanied Xungui, and the officials left after drinking three rounds of wine, and ran back to show the eldest grandson his wife.

Compared with the solemnity of the front hall, the Kunning Palace is much more lively.

A group of little girls, Yingying and Yanyan, even if each of them only said a few words, they were chattering like a vegetable market.

This gave Concubine Guo Hui a headache, she wanted to scold them, but she was afraid of scaring these children.But no matter what, these little girls are too noisy.

Just when Concubine Guo Hui was having a headache, Qin Deshun's male duck voice suddenly came from outside the door.

"His Majesty is here!"

All the concubines, wives, and wealthy ladies in the Kunning Palace were all shocked when they heard that His Majesty had arrived, and then they got up and left their seats, knelt on the ground and waited to welcome His Majesty the Emperor.

Lao Zhu walked into Kunning Palace, looked at the people kneeling on the ground, and felt a little regretful in his heart.

I am also full of food, so why do I go for a trip in person, let Concubine Guo Hui leave behind a few well-looking little girls to look at each other slowly.

Now that it's all here, I can only bite the bullet and take a look.

Old Zhu passed the crowd, came to sit down beside Concubine Guo Hui, and then spoke lightly.

"Be flat!"

"Thank you Your Majesty..."

Although Lao Zhu had made them flat, they still only dared to stand at the table, and no one dared to sit down carelessly.

Xu Miaojin dared, and even touched half of her ass, but was picked up by her mother and sister-in-law, so she could only stand aside obediently.

Xu Miaojin's small actions immediately attracted Lao Zhu, who had a good impression of this girl, and felt that she had the same lazy temper as her own grandson.

"That's Xu Da's daughter, right?"

"Come forward and answer!"

When Xu Miaojin heard this, she hurriedly left her mother and sister-in-law, and came to pay respects in front of Lao Zhu in a dignified figure.

"The courtier Xu Miaojin pays respects to His Majesty and Concubine Hui..."

Old Zhu asked kindly.

"Is your body getting better?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, the courtiers have already become agile. Now they can catch chickens when they go up the mountain, and catch fish when they go down the river!"

As a princess to be married, Zhu Mingdang naturally wanted to attend this kind of banquet. Seeing what Xu Miaojin said, she hurriedly added a few words to her.

"Grandfather, Aunt Xu is amazing. She is better at catching toads than Uncle Fifteen and the others, and she can also shoot birds with a slingshot..."

Zhu Mingdang's supplement directly pissed Xu Huizu's wife and Mrs. Xu's old lady Xie to death.

Anyone with a discerning eye knows that today is a blind date meeting, and my daughter has earned the reputation of being able to catch toads, how will she marry in the future!
Lao Zhu was very happy to hear it, not only laughed heartlessly, but also messed up the mandarin ducks.

"Hahaha!"

"It's a natural match with that bastard Zhu Zhi!"

"Why don't you be our fifteenth daughter-in-law? Let's see that you can control that bastard Zhu Zhi!"

This means that it is clear that a marriage is about to be bestowed. If the Xu family agrees to this marriage, it is time to come forward and thank her.

The Xu family naturally agreed. The Xu family had three daughters. The eldest daughter married Yan Wang as the concubine, and the second daughter also married the acting king Zhu Gui.

However, Xu Miaojin, who was kneeling in front of Lao Zhu, refused the marriage before the Xu family's mistress, Mrs. Xie, stepped forward to thank her.

"I thank Your Majesty, my daughter, but my daughter cannot marry His Royal Highness Liao Wang. What His Highness Liao Wang likes is not my female minister, but Guo Qian, the daughter of Guo Ying, Marquis of Wuding!"

"A courtier's daughter can't win someone's love!"

When Lao Zhu mentioned this matter, he became very angry. Originally, he wanted to marry Tang He's daughter to Zhu Zhi, but this boy didn't live up to his expectations, so he hooked up with Guo's daughter.

Now after what Xu Miaojin said, it can be said that everyone in the city knows it, even if they don't agree.

However, Lao Zhu really liked Xu Miaojin so much that even if he couldn't let her marry Zhu Zhi, he still wanted her to be his daughter-in-law.

"Ugh!"

"Zhu Zhi, the unlucky bastard!"

"Third girl, you were raised by us. Let me give you a favor now. We will betroth you to any son of our Zhu family that you like!"

As soon as Zhu Yuanzhang said this, the entire Kunning Palace fell silent.

Since ancient times, I have only heard that the royal family picks and chooses, but have you ever heard that the daughter of a courtier chooses and chooses, and she still chooses among the princes?

The Xu family's face is too big, it's so big that it has no limit!

Xu Miaojin was also stunned by Lao Zhu's grace, but when he thought of Zhu Quan, Zhu Wei, and Zhu Wei, he felt bored for a while.

The few remaining princes of the old Zhu family are not as good as Zhu Zhi. They are really incompetent in literature and martial arts, and they are ugly...

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace!"

"However, I still want to be filial and respect my relatives for a few more years, and I don't want to marry too early."

When Lao Zhu heard this, he could only feel infinite melancholy and regret.

Needless to say, the children didn't like those bastards of their own!

Lao Zhu had a soft nail on Xu Miaojin's place, and could only look helplessly at Concubine Guo Hui, who immediately ordered someone to take out a bunch of palace flowers, sachets and the like for rewards.

Lao Zhu looked at all the things and was not very satisfied. Finally, he saw a handful of Ruyi on the shelf and ordered someone to take it.

"I wish you this jade Ruyi, I hope you can find Mr. Ruyi in the future!"

Wei Guogong's daughter-in-law and Xu Miaojin's wife hurried over to refuse.

"Your Majesty, please take it back. My daughter is not blessed, and I can't afford such a precious reward!"

"Old lady, please get up!"

"We also watched this child grow up. Since our son is not worthy of this child, we can only bless this child for brother Xu Da!"

"It's a little girl with no shape, I hope His Majesty will not be offended..."

"Miao Jin, hurry up and thank His Majesty!"

Xu Miaojin hurriedly kowtowed to Lao Zhu after hearing the words, then took Yu Ruyi respectfully, and ran back to show off to the two little nieces of the Feng family.

Seeing Xu Miaojin's gesture, Lao Zhu felt melancholy again.

This woman is open-minded, if it wasn't for her inferior seniority, it would be great to promise that bastard Zhu Yunxie.

After Lao Zhu visited Xu Miaojin last time, he called the daughters of Zhao's family, Mu's family and other noble families over to have a look.

Not to mention that Ni Sun has a good eye, the few selected are all beauties, but they don't know what their temperaments are, so they have to ask Concubine Guo Hui to help them find out.

Lao Zhu also rewarded palace flowers, sachets and other things, which can be regarded as keeping an eye for the eldest grandson.

After meeting these little girls, Lao Zhu wanted to get up and leave the table, but Guo Huifei stopped him with his eyes.

"Your Majesty, the wife and daughter of the founding father Chang's family are here too. Didn't you see me last time?"

"Oh?"

Upon hearing this, Lao Zhu quickly sat down again and ordered someone to bring the Chang family's wife and daughter up.

Although the founding duke's title has been cut, Chang Sheng has a nephew who is the grandson of the emperor, and sooner or later the title will be regained.

Therefore, when the nobles are chatting normally, they are still addressed as the founder of the country.

Chang Sheng's daughter-in-law Tang did not come alone, but brought her own daughter and several daughters of Chang Mao's family into the palace.

"My concubine, Mr. Tang, pays homage to His Majesty!"

"Hurry up and pay your respects to His Majesty, why are you still standing there?"

After Chang Sheng's daughter-in-law urged, the daughters and nieces behind him signed to pay their respects.

"My daughter Chang Qinyin pays her respects to Your Majesty..."

"The courtier's daughter often pays her respects to His Majesty in chess..."

"My daughter Chang Shuxin pays her respects to Your Majesty..."

Lao Zhu kept saying hello to everyone he saw, which gave the Chang family mother and daughter enough face.In the end, I asked the Chang family if they had any difficulties. In addition to a pair of palace flowers and sachets for each person, they also rewarded ten bolts of cloud brocade.

Lao Zhu rewarded a bunch of things, and finally set his sights on Chang Qinyin.

"How old is this child?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, this girl is the daughter of my dead brother Chang Mao, who is sixteen years old this year..."

Old Zhu nodded when he heard this, and secretly wrote down the girl's name.

Concubine Guo Hui saw that Lao Zhu wanted to leave again, so she hurriedly called her distant niece over to introduce her.

"Your Majesty, this is the Wang Erni I mentioned to you earlier."

"His father is a city gate official. Although the official position is not high, the child's family education is excellent. He has been enlightened since he was a child, and he has dabbled in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting..."

"Wang Erni?"

"The minister, Queen Erni, pays respects to His Majesty, wishing my emperor long live long live..."

"Be flat!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Lao Zhu stared at Wang Erni, and saw that the child looked quite upright, and his etiquette was in place, so there was really nothing to be picky about.

It's just that when thinking of his father's background, Lao Zhu always feels a little bored.

If I marry Zhu Yunwen a city gate official's daughter as his daughter-in-law, won't I piss the child off?

"reward!"

Concubine Guo Hui hurriedly rewarded the palace flowers and sachets, and also rewarded two pieces of brocade.

Old Zhu knew that Concubine Guo Hui was deliberately increasing the reward, and wanted to finalize the marriage between Zhu Yunqi and this woman, but Lao Zhu didn't stop him, but let Concubine Guo Hui play.

After seeing the people who should be seen, Lao Zhu got up and left. After Lao Zhu left, Kunning Palace resumed its usual bustle.

It's just that the excitement this time is obviously a little different. The air seems to be permeated with the sour smell of old Shaanxi vinegar.

"Hey, yo, I can't see it, you, the daughter of a small city gate official, can be rewarded by His Majesty!"

Wang Erni didn't answer when she heard the words, but just ate the food in small bites.

Although her family is related to Concubine Guo Hui, the relatives are too far away. If Concubine Guo Hui didn't take the initiative to mention it, his family would have even forgotten that there is such a prominent relative.

Therefore, she has nothing to ask for when she enters the palace this time, let's talk about it first.

As for the selection of the concubine by the prince, marriage with a wealthy family, it has nothing to do with her.

Seeing that Wang Erni ignored them, a group of rich and noble ladies felt that they were bored, so they picked others to make fun of them.

The main force of molesting is naturally Zhao Paner, Feng Baoer and Mu Xichun who were rewarded with palace flowers and sachets by His Majesty.

In principle, Xu Miaojin, who was bestowed with a jade wish, should be molested the most, but whoever makes this woman a heroine, she is a thief with small fists, and ordinary people dare not provoke her.

Therefore, they can only cast their sourness on the other three.

One said that the rise of the Zhao family was in sight, and it was time to pay homage to the sister of the Zhao family soon.

One said that the Feng family was very popular, and that the Feng family would have a grandson and concubine in the future.

However, no matter what others said, the three of them made up their minds to play dead.

Since the three of them received the reward from His Majesty and became the focus of the crowd, the three of them have been cautious in their words and deeds, for fear of being singled out by others and missing out on a great marriage.

Concubine Tai Sun!

Which of the rich and noble daughters in Dabentang didn't rush to become a grandson concubine?
The palace banquet ended soon, Guo Huifei naturally wouldn't let people come for nothing, and rewarded every wealthy daughter with a pair of palace flowers.

Feng Sheng had been paying attention to the movements in the harem for a long time, and when he heard that the harem had dispersed, he ignored the tugging of the army's robes, left everyone on the spot and ran out of the palace.

When he saw his daughter holding two exquisite boxes, Feng Sheng's face suddenly showed a innocent smile like a silly roe deer.

"Baby granddaughter, hurry up and show grandpa, what good thing has Concubine Guo Hui rewarded you!"

Feng Baoer heard the words and hurriedly handed the box to his grandfather as if offering a treasure. Feng Sheng took the box and was about to open it on the spot, which made Feng Baoer very anxious.

"Grandpa, get in the car and watch!"

Feng Sheng looked at the crowd leaving the palace in front of the palace gate, and realized that this was wrong.

"Yep!"

"Let's get in the car and take a peek!"

Feng Sheng carried his granddaughter into the carriage, then hurried in, and couldn't wait to open the brocade box.When he saw that there was only a pair of palace flowers and a sachet in the box, Feng Sheng's old face immediately collapsed.

"That's it?"

"Grandpa, this is a gift from His Majesty!"

"Moreover, only the daughters of Zhao Shangshu's family, the daughters of Muying's family, the daughters and granddaughters of the Chang family have sachets, and other female relatives who entered the palace do not have them."

Feng Sheng looked at the granddaughter with a proud face, and his thoughts suddenly came alive.

Those of the Chang family can be ignored directly, these are real cousins, and the superiors will never choose the grandson concubine from them.

As for Zhao Shangshu's family and Mu Ying's family...

It should be the enemy of my granddaughter competing for the grandson concubine.

And according to the practice of His Majesty choosing a princess, it is very likely that she is the daughter of Muying's family.

Muying died of illness, leaving her orphan daughter alive.

With a prominent status and status, without worrying about foreign relatives interfering in politics, it can be said that he is a perfect match for the emperor's grandson!

After Feng Sheng thought of this level, he immediately warned his granddaughter.

"Bao'er, you need to get closer to the Mu sisters in the future!"

"Our family is not destined to be a grandson and concubine, so it is good to be a side concubine!"

Feng Baoer asked stupidly.

"Grandpa, why can't I be a concubine?"

Feng Sheng glared at his granddaughter fiercely when he heard the words.

"If you want to be a concubine, you must first die a father, and then die a grandfather!"

"As long as your father and I are still alive, you will die to be a concubine!"

"Uh uh..."

Feng Bao'er couldn't figure out what the relationship between being a grandson and concubine had to do with her dead father, but for a veteran like Feng Sheng, he thought it was a matter of course.

His Majesty the Emperor pays the most attention to the inheritance of imperial power, and will never allow his relatives to interfere in politics.

Therefore, the grandson and concubine will either not have a high family background, or her father and brother will die, just like the Chang family back then.

When Zhao Pan'er returned to the Qin family, she obviously felt that the Qin family treated her differently.

Not only a small building was set up for her alone, but several maids and women were added.

Zhao Pan'er looked at the palace flowers and sachets on the table with a faint smile on his face.

If she expected it right, her uncle must have known about her stay in the palace.

Sure enough, during dinner, my uncle brought his wife over to visit him.

"Is Pan'er resting?"

"not yet!"

"Pan'er has met her uncle and her aunt."

Mrs. Qin hurriedly helped Zhao Pan'er up, and then said with a smile.

"We are all a family, so there is no need to be so polite!"

"I heard that His Majesty personally rewarded you with palace flowers and sachets?"

"Yes!"

Zhao Pan'er quickly brought the things over and asked Qin Kui and his wife to have a look.

Qin Kui didn't understand this, just glanced at it and it was over, Madam Qin picked up a palace flower and looked left and right, then looked at the stitches and materials of the sachet, praised a few times before putting it down.

"Niece of the Zhao family, tell uncle what you need here. Although uncle's family is not rich, he will not treat you badly."

Zhao Pan'er heard the words and hurriedly stood up to express his thanks.

"My little daughter is already very grateful for being taken in by my uncle. My aunt takes good care of her and never lacks anything..."

"Okay then, take a good rest, you have to go to the palace to study tomorrow..."

"Yes……"

Qin Kui just sat down for a while, then led his wife away.The two walked through the Moon Gate, and Mrs. Qin said something envious.

"The girl from the Zhao family is really lucky!"

"I see that palace flowers and sachets are not ordinary things. Presumably His Majesty likes this woman and wants to choose her as the grandson concubine."

Qin Kui shook his head and said.

"Hard to say!"

"It stands to reason that His Majesty should choose Zhao Pan'er. His father's official position is not obvious, so there is no need to worry about his relatives interfering in politics..."

"But the emperor's grandson has a resolute character. I'm afraid this matter will depend on His Royal Highness's own opinion in the end. Whether the old emperor agrees or not is not so important."

Mrs. Qin was puzzled when she heard the words.

"The grandson of the emperor will look down on our family Pan'er?"

"Pan'er is an old man who watched him grow up. Whether it is appearance, temperament, talent or learning, he is first-class outstanding."

"In the whole world, only the grandson of the emperor can match it!"

"By the way, I heard that the emperor's grandson summoned Pan'er alone a few days ago, and left Pan'er in the Wenhua Palace to serve the pen and ink..."

"Master, do you think the grandson of the emperor will also be interested?"
