From the ashes: Return of the General

Chapter 974 The Prince's Side Concubine
"It's just that I have a bad temper." Mei Jinze blurted out, and Mei Jinze directly helped her out.

Pearl bowed her head and didn't dare to say yes, Wen Ruyan looked at the picture album and said: "Mrs. Jin has six sons in a row and one daughter is naturally doted on in every way, but I have already sent someone to investigate. Miss Jin just has a bit of a temper. She is not arrogant, and she is a reasonable person with a good heart. I heard that the person she admires the most is Xin'er, and the thing she wants to do the most is to join the army, but Jin Houye and her brothers are unwilling. A lot of people watched her, for fear that she would sneak out of Beijing."

More than just refusing, Mrs. Jin was about to die from a headache, but if she was not afraid of her sneaking away, how could she coax her to be a master in Yiying Hall every day to teach children martial arts, and return to Yiying every month? Donate rice, food, and clothes.

Mei Jinze knew her, and had met her a few times when she went to Yiying Hall for inspection, and even made a move once, so she was acquainted with each other.

I have seen her fiery temper that draws a knife at the slightest disagreement, and I also know that she is a person who does not like to be restrained like myself, and I guess she will definitely not want to enter the palace as a concubine, living in the deep palace all her life, Mei Jinze twisted slightly Eyebrow pondered slightly: "I don't like her, cross her off the list of concubines."

Because of his responsibilities, he couldn't be willful, couldn't leave, couldn't go to the battlefield, he was already trapped, so why bother to trap her.A girl like her should live freely and unrestrainedly, and should not be imprisoned in the cage of the deep palace, and only look at the square sky above her head for the rest of her life.

Wen Ruyan was a little surprised. You must know that Miss Jin is very beautiful. Just because of her appearance alone, everyone loves flowers. In addition, she knows martial arts and has a different personality from other girls. He should like it.

Full of doubts, Wen Ruyan looked up at Mei Jinze and asked him at the same time: "I heard your voice before, could it be that she offended something, you..."

"Well, we had a fight. I don't like tigresses, so cross her off the list, right now." After finishing speaking, he took a pen and ink and crossed her off the list without hesitation.

Pursing her lips and thinking about it for a while, Wen Ruyan swallowed the words and opened the third page and said, "If you don't like it, then don't like it, let's read on, Pearl, go on."

Pearl followed the order and continued to introduce for Mei Jinze: "This is the eldest daughter of Lord Jing'an Bo Feng, and also the younger sister of Feng Wuzheng, the commander of the Gyeonggi Guards. Feng Qianqian is eighteen years old and never married. "

Bright eyes and white teeth are charming but not bewitching, and she has a long body with ten fingers and strong fingers. I have to say that she has a good-looking face, and her facial features are deep and distinct, which makes people unforgettable and impressive.

Having never met Feng Wuzheng and did not know that Feng Wuzheng actually has a younger sister with a beautiful face, Mei Jinze said, "You have never been married at the age of eighteen, why?"

Not to mention the capital, but most of the girls within a radius of a hundred miles are married early. They started to see each other during the [-]th Five-Year Plan, and they got married after a year or two of engagement. She is eighteen years old, why hasn't she married yet?
Apart from other things, it is too easy for her to find a good family in the capital just because of her looks and family background, and her elder brother Feng Wuzheng is still the commander in charge of the sixteen guards of the capital, the matchmaker should have broken the threshold.

Pearl was also very curious at first. After all, she is good-looking and a lady, so she should not stay at home at this age, but she has already investigated clearly, and there is a reason for this.

Saluting and got up to tell the truth, Pearl said: "His Royal Highness, Miss Feng had smallpox when she was three years old. At that time, it was said that she was dead. Mrs. Feng was afraid of contagion and wanted to move her out to bury her. Mrs. Feng didn't want to. She took her back to her natal home overnight. Mrs. Feng's ancestral home was in Shuichang, and her father was the official of Shuichang's parents. Being wronged, Mrs. Feng did not bring Miss Feng back when she returned to Beijing, but kept her under the knees of her parents."

"Miss Feng is beautiful. She returned to Beijing a few years ago when the traitor King Ping was choosing a concubine. Unfortunately, she fell ill and had rashes on her face that festered and festered." But at that time, because he entered the palace and asked the imperial physician to see it, it quickly spread throughout the capital.

Frowning slightly and smiling slightly, Mei Jinze said: "This is really a coincidence, did she go back to Shuichang when her face was rotten, and was later cured by her grandfather?"

Surprised in her heart, her eyes widened involuntarily, Pearl said with surprise on her face: "How do you know, the servant hasn't said anything yet, you..."

With a chuckle, Mei Jinze remained silent, picked up the album and looked at it carefully, thinking that this girl is pretty good, he thought to himself and said: "You are courageous, resourceful, courageous and open-minded, it seems that I want to marry you." looking for someone."

After finishing speaking, he put down the album, looked at Wen Ruyan and said, "What does the empress think?"

Born and raised in the capital, Wen Ruyan is already calm about such things. On the contrary, she has seen and heard too many fights between women in the back house, and there are even more ruthless ones than this.

Like him, she picked up the picture album and looked at it carefully. Wen Ruyan looked at it and said, "You can take the risk of disfigurement and not participate in Prince Ping's concubine selection, which shows that she is a bold and independent girl. It's just that she almost died of smallpox when she was a child, and she almost died later. My son is disfigured, his father said she is an ominous person, don't you mind?"

Mei Jinze felt that she was testing herself, and wrote lightly: "If I mind my mother, I won't put her in the album."

Immediately, Wen Ruyan smiled, and gently put the album back in front of him, looking at the fish in the thousand carp pond, sighed: "There must be blessings after a catastrophe, I believe she is a lucky girl."

Although it was to choose a concubine and let the ladies of various families enter Beijing to participate in the election, she had already sent people to Shuichang to investigate. This woman was not only courageous but also as resolute as her grandfather.

The reason why the crown prince agreed to choose a concubine was because the crown princess was not good enough, and she might not be able to bear the responsibility of the mother of the country when she entered the middle palace in the future. Therefore, he wanted to choose a favorite concubine who was smart and knew how to advance and retreat. The ability to suppress the princess, so that she can't do anything wrong, and stay honest.

Thinking about Miss Feng's background is also very suitable, Mei Jinze said: "What the queen mother said is true, so let her be the side concubine."

Both are concubines, but the side concubine is a noble concubine, and besides the main concubine, there are two side concubines under the crown prince.

The first time Wen Ruyan read the picture book, she thought he would like Miss Feng, but she guessed right, she decided on a side concubine and another side concubine, she continued to flip through the picture book and said, "Okay, then Decide on her, and when I have time in two days, I will call her into the palace to plant vegetables, and let your father and your second aunt have a look."

As the head of the Sixth Palace, Mei Yuzheng is very busy. Every day before dawn, she follows all the officials into the palace, and only returns home when the palace gate is locked at night, but during the day she stays in the palace for ten days and a half months without seeing her. One time, every time I see her, I have to ask someone to invite her.
