Second spring

(Sorry... I didn't update in time again today. I went to stay up late again, alas.)

He wants to recruit new people, which is what he should do. The ministers and commoners can only be happy and will never say anything.But if he takes a picture of a little girl who is under 13 years old and looks like a teenager...Jing Hedi has always been an emperor who wants to save face, so he probably won't be able to do such a thing that is criticized by others.

And the two princes want to choose the concubine, the age is barely suitable, but Lin Yijia's identity as a fourth-rank daughter is not qualified to be a concubine, and the position of side concubine is usually reserved for the concubine of the high family. Lin Yijia's The identity is also inappropriate...

Originally, Song Jie and the Lin family were the same. Although they were a little worried about Jing and Di's attitude, they were still relatively optimistic in their hearts.

But what did Yang Guangbei's words mean?

"My people said that she is on the second prince's list." Yang Guangbei snorted coldly: "He has a good plan... She is a daughter of the fourth rank now, but it seems that he is not enthusiastic about reserve. The emperor It's the year of the dragon and the tiger, if they are recruited to Haoyue's family at this time, the emperor will definitely be wary of suspicion. And Mr. Lin has a bright future, and ten years from now, he may be an important minister of the cabinet..."

That's when it's time to start thinking.Lin Shiqing just needed to use it.

This plan was really shrewd, but Song Jie still said, "But Xiao Liu is too young..."

"You are too young, so you don't need to get married right away. If you delay it, you may not be able to delay it for three to five years." Yang Guangbei said, "And after three to five years, if there is any disagreement...he has many ways Return this marriage. And the method he used must not be a good one. "

royal man.Of course everything can be done.

Song Jie paced in the forest for a while, frowned and said, "Then what are your plans?"

Yang Guangbei didn't say anything.

After a long time, he flew onto the horse and said to Song Jie: "Go back." After saying that, he kicked the horse's belly violently, and the horse suffered from pain and immediately galloped.Song Jie cursed in a low voice from behind, got on his horse and chased after him.

……

It was still hot and dry.

This year's Shengjing City.It seems to be more restless, and the wind is full of floating emotions.

Early this morning, Lin Yijia changed into a new dress, a pink top and a water blue skirt, and continued to comb her eternal double bun.On her snow-white neck was a necklace of red gold inlaid with precious stones, a string of beeswax beads was wrapped around her wrist, and a pair of embroidered shoes were worn on her feet, with a fluffy ball like the top hanging on the tip of the shoe, trembling when she walked. , extraordinarily interesting and lively.After dressing up.She ordered Lan Qiao to accompany her out of Yiyuan, and soon arrived at Pine Forest Courtyard.

Today is the day she and Lin Changjia go to the primary election.certainly.Along with them were Chen Wanzhi and Li Yueying.None of the others arrived yet.Lin Yijia saluted Mrs. Lin and Mrs. Li with a smile, asked the three sisters well, and sat down in her seat.

Lin Yinjia is still "sick".

Mrs. Lin saw that her little daughter was still childish, she sighed in her heart, and asked, "Have you eaten yet?"

Lin Yijia nodded and said, "I used some fried rice cakes. I heard from Mama Wang that rice cakes are the best to withstand hunger, and you won't feel thirsty easily. It's the best breakfast."

They were the first batch of ladies in Shengjing to go to the primary election.It's unclear how long this primary will last.In such an occasion, if you mention convenience or something, it will definitely not look good.Also, it can be hard to be hungry.She didn't want to suffer like that.

It's not that Lin Yijia didn't think about fainting at the scene... However, if she just fainted, she might not be dismissed. It's better to be honest and not attract attention.

Mrs. Lin nodded in agreement, and said, "Mother Wang is well thought out."

After a while, Chen Wanzhi and Li Yueying came together.

Chen Wanzhi wears a light grape purple blouse with a dark purple skirt, which is very eye-catching - purple is rarely matched by people, and girls wear purple is even rarer, if you are not careful, you will look old-fashioned Rustic.But Chen Wanzhi's skin is very good, so good that it looks like it is shining with precious light, so she insists on showing off her purple body.At this time, she combed a butterfly-shaped bun, with a few small lavender crystal stones in between, and a pair of black pearls on her ears.In addition, a purple ribbon was lightly tied around her waist, and the gold thread embroidery that appeared and disappeared in the deep purple skirt when she walked around, and a black jade pressed skirt carved into a flower shape... When she appeared, she was Everyone who provoked her was stunned, and they couldn't help but praise in their hearts: She is really a beauty...

On the other hand, Li Yueying is dressed in a light-colored suit with simple jewelry. At first glance, she is not as good as Chen Wanzhi, but the light-colored suit makes her look very slender, and she is a bit charming—it wasn't enough a few months ago Li Yueying, who was slender and thin, had a charming taste in whether she wore it or not.

Lin Changjia was the last one to arrive.

She looked a little listless, as if the clothes and jewelry were just matched casually, and she didn't care about today's affairs at all.She did put on some makeup, but that makeup seemed to be just to cover up her unattractive complexion.

Lin Yijia was slightly surprised by Lin Changjia's behavior, so she looked at Lin Changjia a few more times.

At this time, Mrs. Lin said, "Since you're all here, let me just say a few words. According to what I've heard, the four of you are the first batch of young women in Shengjing City to conduct the primary election, and the number is two hundred." ...This number is a bit too much, so it is difficult to predict how long you will stay in Wangjiang Villa. And we can't go in, we are inside, so we have to be more careful."

"I gave each of you a copy of the layout plan of Wangjiang Villa a few days ago, so you must have memorized it by heart. To act in it, you must follow the instructions of the aunts and father-in-law in the palace, and don't act alone or with others. It's just a dispute. At this time, it's better to be patient."

Mrs. Lin confessed: "If you finish first and then later, you don't have to stay in the villa and wait, just come out and go back to the mansion. I will let the mansion prepare enough carriages and people to meet them outside the villa. Alright , I should have said it long ago, let’s go.”

The four girls all stood up, saluted, and filed out of the room.Boarded the carriage at the gate of the pine forest courtyard.

"Are you feeling unwell?" Lin Yijia asked Lin Changjia.

Lin Changjia turned pale, and said: "Maybe my childhood is coming, I feel bored, and I didn't sleep well last night, so..."

Lin Yijia nodded her understanding, and said, "No wonder you are wearing such a skirt."

The crimson skirt looks very thick.Lin Yijia seemed to remember that this was what she wore this spring.It was midsummer at this time, and this skirt made people feel hot and uncomfortable at first glance.

"Here's this for you." Lin Yijia took off her purse and gave it to Lin Changjia, saying: "There are some cool herbs in here, and you can smell it when you feel uncomfortable. It's okay if there is ice for a while, but if there is no ice, then Oh no……"

It was obviously unlucky to encounter such a time.It's hot again.

Before the purse reached Lin Changjia's hands, Chen Wanzhi took it over and smelled it, and then she handed it to Lin Changjia again. She frowned and said, "No ice? No way? Wangjiang Isn't the villa the royal village? Besides, the only ones who can go are the daughters of officials, so why don't they use ice!"

Wangjiang Villa is close to the imperial palace, but it is outside the imperial palace.To be sure, it is connected to the imperial garden by water, and it is on the back of the palace.Zhuangzi is not very big, and it is rarely used on weekdays. It is only used for ice activities when the river freezes in winter and spring.

Before Lin Yijia could speak, Li Yueying explained: "But didn't the lady say that? There are 200 people in our group. With so many officials and girls together, I'm afraid they have to wait outside most of the time, right? Outside, even if there is ice, it is useless."

Lin Yijia nodded vigorously when she heard the words, indicating that that was the case.

Chen Wanzhi's face became worried.She thought for a while and asked Lin Yijia: "Cousin Yi, I heard that there is a kind of rare jade that is warm in winter and cool in summer, but is it true?"

Lin Yijia nodded and said: "There is indeed such a piece of jade, which was donated by a small country called Jiaozhi in the southwest during the early years of Daxian. Because the southwest is hot all year round, people in that country thought it was cold at first. What about jade. Liangyu is as rare as Wenyu, so they dedicated that jade embryo to Emperor Yuan."

"Emperor Yuan ordered craftsmen to carve it into a piece of jade and gave it to Empress Yuan." Lin Yijia said: "Empress Yuan has been wearing it all the time. I didn't expect that the jade would become warm again in winter, which is very magical. Because of this, Yuan Later, he also named that piece of jade, called Ruyi Jade. Well, it is clearly recorded in the manuscript of great-grandfather."

Chen Wanzhi clicked her tongue after hearing this, and there was a little light in her beautiful eyes.She was in a daze for a while, then asked again: "Where is Yu? Where is it now?"

"I guess, it must be at the Queen Mother's place." Li Yueying rolled her eyes and said with a smile.

"Why not with the queen?" Lin Changjia was also attracted.She paused, and then said: "I heard that concubine De is very favored now, and sooner or later she will be imperial concubine...Maybe that Ruyi was bestowed on her by the emperor."

Li Yueying shook her head, she seemed to be unconvinced and said: "Let's show the most filial piety, and the good things will definitely go to the Queen Mother."

"But the Queen Mother is not..."

Lin Changjia seemed to want to say that the current queen mother is not the biological mother of Emperor Jinghe, Lin Yijia interrupted her quickly, and said: "Don't argue... that Ruyi jade, I heard that the queen mother has never worn it, and I have never seen the queen wear it. However, Concubine De is gone. Think about it, who owns that unique jade and doesn’t wear it every day? So it shouldn’t be on any of them... Well, it must not be lost... Probably still in the palace It’s in the treasure house!” (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets.
