I'm a detective for Dongchang

Chapter 70 The Missed Yuan Yanxi

After Lu Xizhi transmigrated, she was really worried that, as the daughter of an official, she would be dragged away to let the emperor choose concubines, princes and lords choose concubines, but when she knew that Lu Zhonglian was only a fifth-rank official, she felt at ease. I put it back, but what's going on now, why didn't Emperor Qi play his cards according to the routine?
Emperor Qi Tianyin, 42 years old this year, showed outstanding military talent at the age of 15. He led troops several times to destroy Guanxia, ​​Longyou, Xifan and other three countries. With a strong national power, he succeeded to the throne at the age of 22. He was an ambitious emperor.

Today, he only has five princes and three princesses, but for Lu Xizhi, five princes are enough. If each person chooses two, then there will be ten places. If there are lustful people, choose more , there are twenty places...

And with her beautiful appearance...

"Father, there must be hundreds of civil and military officials above the fifth rank. The emperor's grandfather must not be able to remember clearly. One more than me is not too many, and one less than me is quite a lot. What do you think?" Lu Xizhi said in a deliberative tone. with.

Lu Zhonglian wanted to pull her ears again, but he was stared at by a blank stare beside him. He quickly put down his raised hand, rubbed it twice pretending to have nothing to do, and said bitterly, "Your father, I am In addition to the members of the household department, even if there are thousands of official household registrations registered in the roster, it is clear and clear. Among the children of the official family, those who are engaged to be married, and those who are not married will not be left behind. Since the emperor has ordered, we Before entering the palace, you have to tick off it, and those who didn’t go are not deceiving the emperor!”

Well... the emperor is really scheming.

"Father, you also said that there are hundreds of officials. If their daughters are counted together, who will pay attention to us, what do you think?" Lu Ziyi spoke to comfort the father and daughter.

Lu Xiruo also comforted her younger sister: "That's right, other people's daughters must have sharpened their heads and want to be princesses. Anyway, on that day, you should wear plain colors so that you won't be easily spotted."

Lu Xizhi also thought that this method was good, the double-eaved roof covered with glazed tiles, and the majestic vermilion lacquer door bound up so many kings of the past, and so many women's freedom.She could never get into a cage like that.

Lu Xizhi didn't want to, but it didn't mean other women didn't want to. If she was really chosen to be a princess, even a side concubine or something would be a great success and a glorious ancestor.

Isn't that right, the Lu family was so worried that they were thinking of 36 tricks to avoid entering the palace; while there were countless girls from other families trying to fly to the branches, racking their brains to compete for beauty, and to show themselves in the palace.

Zhenyuan Hou Mansion, Luoyan Pavilion
"Cousin, cousin, how about this dress for me? Brother Yuchen likes green the most, and he praises me every time he wears a green dress."

Su Luoer resisted the impatience in her heart, and tried her best to say with a pleasant face: "Cai Yue, you look best in green, and your complexion is white and rosy, like a little fairy."

Yuan Caiyue pursed her mouth, and said with a little daughter's coquettishness: "Cousin is all about my brother. Once he comes back, you don't want to talk to me anymore. You didn't even look at it, just said it looks good."

Su Luoer secretly thought that something was wrong, so she cheered up quickly, glanced at several sets of green skirts placed on the bed, picked out one casually, put it on Yuan Caiyue, made gestures a few times, and said: "Caiyue likes to joke. Cousin, who said I didn’t watch it, huh? You’ve been picking and choosing here since the afternoon, and my eyes are dazzled. Every one of these is a boutique from ‘Yunqing Pavilion’, and it matches your body. Aren't they all like little fairies?"

Yuan Caiyue blushed when she said this, "It's been so long, okay, let's just take this one." She took one out of it, handed it to the maid, and told her to soak it in rose fragrance and iron it out keep it.

"Caiyue, will the emperor really choose concubines for the princes at this palace banquet?" Su Luoer asked hesitantly.

"I don't know, but apart from the prince who already has a concubine, King Xuan is almost 21 and only has one side concubine, not to mention King Rui and brother Yuchen are not young, but I heard that brother Yuchen It is very possible that I will be crowned king this time, so I must let the emperor's grandfather see me."

"Then... cousin..." Su Luoer was tortured by heavy anxiety in every nerve. Yuan Yanxi occupies a high position and is the emperor's right-hand man. manage.

Of course Yuan Caiyue knew about her cousin's plan, it should be said that the entire Zhenyuan Hou Mansion knew about this cousin's intentions, but with her elder brother's fairy appearance, how many girls rushed to this place.

But she pretended not to know, and deliberately said: "The emperor's grandfather has asked my brother several times. If I really mention it in front of all the officials this time, I'm afraid it will be difficult for my brother to refuse."

Now Su Luoer was even more anxious, bid farewell to Yuan Caiyue hastily, and walked quickly to the main courtyard.

"Auntie..." As soon as Su Luoer arrived in the yard, she threw herself into Su Xiangling's arms sadly, out of breath, and the appearance of pear blossoms covered with rain made everyone feel distressed.

Sure enough, Su Xiangling patted his niece on the back, "Oh, why are you so wronged, get up quickly."

"Luoer can't live anymore, Auntie, you love me the most, Luoer can only show respect to your love in the next life."

"Hey, what are you talking about, who is being bullied like this by you, come here!" Su Xiangling asked the girl to close the courtyard door, so as to comfort her niece.

Su Luoer intermittently twitched and talked about her worries, which meant that she was afraid that the emperor would mess up the mandarin couples, so she asked her aunt to decide to take her with her.

This narration caused the old mother beside Su Xiangling to roll her eyes uncontrollably. This young lady was smart since she was a child, loved by everyone in the Su family, and even more beautiful and beautiful when she grew up. How could she become so sad? I can't hold my breath, and I don't know how to flatter.He is now in the Hou Mansion, not the Su family in the south of the Yangtze River. Everything in the Hou Mansion is decided by Lord Hou.And the current situation, how can you allow a person with a surname outside the Hou's mansion to say that you can go if you want?
She coughed lightly, for fear that the soft-hearted Su Xiangling would respond immediately and anger Lord Hou.

Su Xiangling glanced at his nanny hesitantly, and said to his niece in embarrassment: "Luo Er, there is a roster for the palace banquet, I'm afraid you won't be able to go."

A trace of unwillingness flashed in Su Luo'er's eyes, and she sobbed softly again, "It's Luo'er who has overstepped, aunt...you know my heart, my heart...is all on my cousin, if I can't marry my cousin , Luo Er can only go to the nunnery to be a sister-in-law." After speaking, he began to cry again.

"Stupid boy, listen to my aunt." Su Xiangling helped her niece lying on her lap, "If the emperor really wanted to marry, none of us would be able to refuse, but aunt promises you, Xi'er's equal wife... "

Before the words fell, the courtyard door was pushed open.

"Mom, is this going to rest?"

Yo, the person here is the protagonist who makes people cry to death

So is Yuan Yanxi.
