Your Majesty, don't spoil me too much, my daughter and I will discuss business with you

Chapter 7
Before Huo Qingyuan could react, the barbarian leader had a man with his father's face, and the sharp bend was placed on the man's neck.

"General, you have to think clearly, if you go to war today, your son will die immediately!"

Fu Qingyuan almost fell off his horse, but many years of experience forced him to make a choice in front of the army. After a long time, the general Shenwu spoke

"Today's battle is for the country and the homes of thousands of people, so what if I take the lives of the old man's family!"

The voice resounded through the three armies, and they asked if they were the ones facing the choice, who could be as firm and righteous as General Husband.

Ruozhi saw the person opposite smiled, it was the unique tacit understanding between father and son, just for a moment, the person walked forward, before leaving, "For Dacang, why are you afraid of death?" After speaking, he looked up to the sky Shout out, approaching the sharp edge.

Ruozhi still remembers that her father was in such a mess that day, with disheveled hair and desolate body, but that was the brilliance he never had, resolute and fearless, just like the uncompromising swan.

This battle lasted for three days and three nights. The soldiers were either emotionally aroused, or dissatisfied and resented for a long time. This battle was fought beautifully and happily!And from the beginning to the end, the six-year-old girl was just locked in the iron box with a slight gap, witnessing and feeling everything, and those screams, blood and dust were ultimately a vivid performance for Ruo Zhi class.

Memories end
The girl's eyes were wet and red, and she couldn't calm down for a long time.

"Grandpa asks you, what should you do as an emperor teacher in the future?"

"For the sake of the country and the people, share your worries!" Ruozhi replied.

"Then do you know why my husband's family inheritance has survived for a hundred years!"

"Loyalty! Absolute loyalty!"

"Let me ask you again, what if the man you love is an emperor?"

"Loyal to him!"

"What if he isn't?"

"Destroy him!"

In April in Yangchun, everything is quiet.

Today is the gift of the daughter of the Gu family, Gu Ranzhi.The Gu family is a hundred-year-old clan, and it has already settled down in Changping during the previous dynasty. It has a lot of prestige. This is something that the Li family can't match. Dacang respects the right, so he worships the right minister.

Ruozhi searched in the treasury early in the morning.

"Master, you almost emptied the storeroom, why are you still not satisfied? Those who don't know think you are choosing a dowry?"

"You also said, if you hadn't misremembered the date and delayed the neon clothes I had prepared on the road, when will I prepare the gift that day, miss?"

Miao Qing stood aside in embarrassment. In fact, he was not to blame for this matter. Firstly, Jiangnan was far away from Changping, and the road was slippery due to the heavy rain for months. Secondly, the drawings given by Ruozhi were too complicated. Silk thread is rare and high-grade, and the craftsmen of the embroiderers dare not start it lightly, which delays it.

Ruozhi searched for a long time but couldn't find anything she was satisfied with, so she finally took this "Picture of Hairpin Flowers" to go. Everyone said that Gu Ranzhi was the number one talented woman, and this "Picture of Hairpin Flowers" was obtained by Ruozhi from an elder of Nangong Academy. , I thought of giving it to her when she got married, so let alone!Sooner or later it is a gift.

When Miao Qing saw that his master was looking for the treasure that he had to copy and admire every day, he opened his mouth incredulously, and said, "Master, this is..."

"Don't talk too much, don't waste the time, quickly unframe and put this picture away, and put it in a sandalwood box!"

Right Prime Minister's Mansion
In the huge mansion, the servants cleaned up happily, not letting go of every corner. In a corner of the boudoir, surrounded by a few maidservants, it was only for today's protagonist - Gu Ranzhi.

"Ling'er, am I beautiful today?" the woman's soft voice said.

"In Ling'er's heart, the girl is the most beautiful!" This is not a compliment. In fact, Gu Ranzhi's appearance is the most beautiful among the noble girls in Dacang. Some people will ask here, how is it compared with Ruozhi? how?Gu Ranzhi also wanted to know.

"I heard that the daughter of the emperor's master is extremely talented and has a good appearance. I don't know if I can see her today?" the woman hoped.

"I heard from my servants that the Emperor's Mansion sent many gifts, but none from the mansion's prostitute," the mother said.

Ling'er said sadly: "It's been more than three months since the lady from the Imperial Master's Mansion came back, people outside always compare her with Miss, and say that she is the most noble daughter in Dacang, bah!I don't know who can compete with my master.

"Master, I've heard you mention this person eight hundred times this month, not to mention that her identity is just playing with the people in the court, so what if the woman is amazing? The master said, you are the one who wants to be a big man." Cang's most honorable mistress."

"Don't talk nonsense!" the woman scolded.

Ling'er lowered her head in grievance. Since she was a child, the young lady has always treated her gently, but now she speaks in such a tone for the sake of outsiders. The mother gave her a wink and let people go down.

"Miss, don't be angry, this girl is also unintentional."

"I know she has no intentions, but I can't help but listen to her intentions. I'm used to it. If it's true, as she said, entering the palace that cannibalize people without blinking an eye, how can she have such a temper." Gu Ranzhi said eagerly.

In fact, what Ling'er said is also true, everyone is a discerning person, although the emperor is in his prime, but the candidate for the crown prince is still uncertain, so you all naturally feel lucky about this position.Originally, King Ruiping was the most hopeful as the eldest son, and Emperor Ming thought so too. He was waiting to hone Lian Lifeng outside for a few years. Conquest is also well-known, the position of the "prince prince" is a certainty, but it is impossible to think that because of the matter of the former queen, his son who has ideas should become a monk.

Since then, the Emperor Ming has been meticulous in his affairs and treated all the princes equally. The ministers and the outside world have no idea for a while. If it was natural that the fifth prince was born in the past, but now the middle palace has the surname Li, and the second prince and the fourth prince also have Hopeful, one is fighting abroad and has made a lot of achievements, and the other is dealing with government affairs in the inner court. .

People say that if anyone wins the daughter of the Gu family, half of the crown prince, or even the throne, is in their hands!
And today's opportunity must be wonderful!

Fifth Prince's Mansion
Lian Lixi looked at the letter: Don't miss this opportunity.

Juanxiu's big characters sat on the letter paper brightly, as if every drop of ink and strength of them were mocking him, mocking what a stupid existence he was, Ruozhi, Ruozhi, this is the answer you gave me ?
After all, as far as you are concerned, only power is the only shackle that fetters you.

"Very well, I said that since it is what you want, I will do it!"

"Bo Xi, prepare a gift for His Highness, and go to the Prime Minister's Mansion!"

at the banquet

Prime Minister Right led Gu Ranzhi and a group of family members to hold a ceremony in the ancestral hall in the backyard. When Ruozhi arrived, the courtyard was already full of guests.If you say that the children of officials and nobles are all in a state, it is very lively, but Ruozhi has basically not been in the capital for the past two years, so she is a stranger among the female relatives, and this circle has always been quite critical of Ruozhi, people I don't like women to show their faces, at most, the girls in the boudoir will hold a poetry meeting together and have a small gathering.

Strange to say, Dacang was originally a commoner woman with an open atmosphere and a very high status. Some daughters of landlords even hired several servants, and some boys from poor families were sold to restaurants and rich families early in the morning. But the ethos of the aristocratic family is that women are women and men are women, which is really puzzling.

Ruozhi wandered around in the yard, seeing no one to greet her, so she sat down on a chair and ate discouragedly, "It's so boring, even Miao Qing can't come in!"

The girls over there seem to have noticed Ruozhi's existence and muttered softly.

"Hey, who is the girl over there? Why is she so unfamiliar?" A woman said,
"The one in the green dress? I don't know her, but she looks pretty when she grows up."

"Really, I thought Ran Zhi's appearance was already the most eye-catching among everyone, but I didn't expect another one."

When Li Shiyu heard those people talking about Ruozhi, she didn't have a good face, and leaned forward and said, "You don't know, just the one next to her, she is the daughter of the emperor's mansion, the future minister, how can she do that today?" How about condescending to come to the inner courtyard of our little girls?"

"Ah! No, she is Fu Ronghua, isn't she very good!"

"That's right, that's the way I see it. How can it compare with Ran?"

Li Shiyu spoke very loudly just now, and within a short while, Ruozhi was surrounded by people, many of whom were slanderous and insulting words, Ruozhi was eating happily, and just looked up to see the female relatives using strange words. He stared at himself like that heinous sinner.

"Why are you all looking at me?" Ruozhi's big eyes were full of innocence, and said again

"Is it forbidden to eat food in this yard?" Now the eyes of the crowd were even more incredible, but they looked at Ruozhi, and looked around, and saw the only familiar face. Li Shiyu was Li Qing's sister. Zhi naturally knew it, and grabbed Li Shiyu's arm with just one step.

"Sister Li, long time no see."

Ruozhi gave the other party a big smile, but Li Shiyu quickly pulled back her sleeves as if she had been splashed with dirty water, but she couldn't ignore it under the eyes of everyone, so she could only smirk:
"There were so many people just now, I didn't see you, why didn't you wait in the front hall and came to the inner courtyard?"

Ruozhi replied: "I'm a woman, so I naturally come to this inner courtyard. Besides, the front hall is full of men, so it's not easy for me, a child, to mix in. It's just that my sister is very puzzled why everyone is looking at me like this!"

"Where, maybe my sister is wrong. My sister hasn't returned for a long time. The sisters are embarrassed. With your appearance, it is inevitable to attract attention."

Just as Ruo Zhi wanted to reply, she only said "Miss is here", and everyone turned their eyes away.

The maid stepped forward, and the two doors swung open, and a graceful and generous girl in purple clothes came in. The girl wore a flower crown, a hollow flat square with gold inlaid beads on her head, and pink puff earrings in her ears. Wearing purple swallows and colorful skirts, red lips and red phoenixes, willow leaves with curved eyebrows, she has a godly and cold temperament and demeanor, which really deserves the words "wonderful" and "excellent".

According to Ruozhi's later memories, it seems that the goddess of the Nine Heavens is not an exaggeration. At that time, even Lixi joked that if she was a man, she might marry him.

When everyone saw the protagonist present, they shifted their focus to Gu Ranzhi, and ignored Ruozhi. Also, Ruozhi's deeds were really not what they admired and pursued.

In this way, Ruozhi walked around the corner by herself again and got up, looking at herself from time to time,

"Am I really that bad?"

The woman looked at the mirror in the yard, and a beautiful girl in green clothes with uncut powder and black came into view. There were only two things: the jade pendant around her waist and the sandalwood hairpin on her head. There is only a simple single-screw bun on the head, and there are broken hair that has not been carefully taken care of on the sideburns. Girls at this age have to wear bangs. That person thinks it is too troublesome to read books and do errands every day. Leave the bangs on.

Ruozhi looked bulging, and subconsciously glanced at the girls in Chinese clothes surrounded by the crowd, then glanced at herself, and finally choked out a sentence: "As expected of everyone's ladies!"

Thinking about it carefully, something is wrong. I am also everyone, but unfortunately I am not a 'lady'.

Ruozhi wanted to have a few words with Gu Ranzhi today, so she couldn't even touch the corners of his clothes, but when Ruozhi wanted to go back in despair, she just said, "The second princess is here!" stopped.

"Lian Yuerou?"

In Ruozhi's impression, when she was young, Lian Yuerou and Ruozhi had a good relationship, but Lian Yuerou's body was extremely poor and she couldn't travel far, but this Ruozhi was strong and lively, and after coming and going, she slowed down. Slowly drift away.

Not long after, I saw a beautiful woman with weak willows and strong winds coming in. Lian Yuerou was dressed in a gauze of plum blossoms in thousands of colors, a cloak of emerald brocade and feathers, and a silver crystal jade bracelet in her hand. The earrings, although seemingly thin, do not lose the royal demeanor at all.

As soon as she entered the door, Lian Yuerou's weak eyes met Ruozhi's for a moment.

Ruozhi originally thought that she would come over to say hello to him, but she didn't realize that she didn't even wink at her, so she faced Gu Ranzhi Xixi who came up to her, and walked towards the corridor, leaving only Ruozhi hanging in the air hands, so embarrassing.

Seeing that the sisters were having a good time chatting, everyone chatted with each other.

"Why do you think the second princess has such a good relationship with Gu Nu?"

"You're ignorant and ignorant!" The woman looked around, and lowered her voice as there were few people around.
"If you say that these two princesses are the best among all the queens in terms of appearance and talent, it's just that this body is a weak Liu Fufeng, who grew up in a medicine jar since she was a child. die young."

"How did you do it?"

"It is rumored that Concubine Xian was framed when she was pregnant and gave birth to a child prematurely, which caused the congenital deficiency of the second imperial daughter. Today, this one is also weak, so naturally she has the same suffering."

"No, I see that the daughter of the Gu family is radiant and not as delicate as you said. You are not bluffing!"

"Oh, don't look at her looking good now. She was also a sick child before, but later I don't know what method Gu used. In the past two years, Gu Nu's health has miraculously recovered, but Gu Nu is afraid that the second emperor will alienate her, so she pretends Look weak."

"It's so, I'll inquire another day, what kind of immortals did the Gu family invite, even the royal family..."

Ruozhi has been tossing around for most of the day, but no one has climbed up, but she has heard a lot of interesting gossip, and she is still a fairy, that is the 'panacea' given to me, girl.

By the end of the second half of the banquet, all the male and female families gathered in the compound. This Gu mansion is also unique. It actually built a stone arch bridge in the courtyard, accompanied by river water, flowers and plants. It is really elegant and beautiful!

"Whether it's the Li family or the Gu family, why is my Emperor's Mansion so boring!" Ruozhi complained to Miao Qingyou.

"Master's words are wrong. Although our Emperor's Mansion does not have the rockery of Li's Mansion and the small river of Gu's Mansion, our Emperor's Mansion is rich! If you want to talk about this rare treasure, let alone the Li and Gu families, it is There is no second one in the whole continent.”

Ruozhi hurriedly yelled, shook her head, "Tacky!" The topic changed:
"But girl, I love to hear it!" After speaking, the two looked at each other and smiled.

Lian Liying caught up with Gu Ranzhi's banquet as soon as he returned to Beijing from a busy trip. Originally, he didn't want to come, but under pressure from his mother and uncle, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and drag his exhausted body over. : "Your Highness, I'm not in a good mood today!"

Lian Liying smiled wryly and shook her head, only to see the young master next to her say "Wow" again, pointing to her companion

"Look at the little lady on the bridge, so gorgeous!"

"Come on, she's just a little girl, don't worry about it."

"But why does it look familiar to me, and I can't remember the name?"
