Chapter 80

After Hubu received the portraits of the selected beautiful girls, he conveyed the news with great efficiency, so the three lucky girls rushed all the way to the capital to prepare for the final imperial examination.

There are so few beautiful women selected this time, if there is no accident, they will all have a chance to enter the palace, and from then on they will fly on the branches and become phoenixes.

And during this period, something extraordinary happened in the princess mansion.

It turned out that Qing Yang clamored to take part in the palace examination after learning the news of the crown prince's draft, which made the whole princess mansion restless.

Generally speaking, if the daughters of court officials are of a suitable age, the officials can take advantage of their positions and enjoy privileges, and directly hand over their personal information to the household department, which will be reviewed by the household secretary and his servants. Well, the list will be drawn up, and finally submitted to the emperor, who will select the final candidate for the palace examination.

When Qing Yang heard about this, he rushed into the eldest princess's room without saying a word, and said, "Mother, I want to enter the palace for a draft!"

The eldest princess was combing her hair, when she heard that the movements of her hands froze, she looked at Qingyang from the mirror, "What did you say?"

"I said, I want to enter the palace for a draft, and I want to be the prince's brother's concubine!" Qing Yang said firmly, as if this trip was not to seek her mother's opinion, but to inform her.

The eldest princess put down the comb in her hand with a snap, stood up and turned to look at her, "Nonsense! Is this kind of nonsense that you, a woman who has not been out of the cabinet, can say casually? Draft? What show? Are you dignified? Princess, what kind of family is not good to marry, do you have to marry into the palace?"

Qingyang was taken aback by the eldest princess's stern appearance, but he still retorted unconvinced, "I like the prince's brother, so why not go into the palace to be his concubine? Even if there are thousands of men in the world, But there is only one elder brother, the crown prince. In the future, he will ascend the throne and become the Ninth Five-Year King. Who else in the world can compare to him? What's wrong with letting me enter the palace? Does mother think that I am not worthy of him?"

After asking a series of questions to her mother, Qingyang was confident, and a flame of love ignited in his chest.

"Is this a question of whether you are worthy or not?" The eldest princess frowned when she saw that she was not married to a prince, and slapped her palm on the dressing table, "You are a princess, you can marry a good man, No matter how you can match a prince and general, why are you making a fuss about entering the palace? The prince already has a concubine. Even if you go in, you will be a junior at most. When the prince ascends the throne and the concubine becomes a queen, what are you? ?”

Qingyang was speechless when he was blocked by his mother, his face was flushed, and he stomped his feet angrily, "What do I care about so much? In short, I want to marry the prince brother! If mother doesn't allow me, I just... I just..."

The eldest princess gritted her teeth and looked at her, "What about you?"

"I will... I will become a monk and go to Jingyun Temple to shave my hair and become a nun!" Qing Yang said without hesitation, and he was bound to fight for love to the end.

When playing with Shen Xin a few days ago, she saw that Shen Xin was carrying a booklet called "The Peacock Flies Southeast", so she looked through it curiously.

The story of the martyr Liu Lanzhi and her husband Jiao Zhongqing who would rather die for love shocked her repeatedly. Shen Xin even wiped her tears and said that there are nine out of ten unhappy things in the world, but although these two are dead, they are loyal and unyielding to love , The unswerving spirit is really touching.

Today, not wanting to meet the crown prince's draft, Qingyang suddenly remembered the story of Liu Lanzhi, and couldn't help feeling proud, as if he had become Liu Lanzhi himself.

Yes, she would rather die than surrender for love!

The eldest princess was so angry that she pointed at Qingyang and said "you" several times in a trembling voice, but in the end she couldn't hold back a word to scold this domineering and charming girl whom she had grown up with since she was a child.

On the contrary, Qingyang saw his mother's expression was wrong, so he ran out, only to run into his father again in the front yard.

She thought that her mother was short-sighted and didn't want her to marry into the palace because she was afraid that she would suffer hardship, but her father was different.

Think about it, her marriage into the palace not only brings glory to the princess mansion, but also helps the family save expenses and bring in income. Isn't this the best of both worlds?
Unlike my mother, my father is a woman, so he will definitely support me.

So Qingyang couldn't wait to tell Qin Shu that he wanted to participate in the draft, and Qin Shu asked her in a little surprise, "Your Highness the Crown Prince..."

"I like him!" Qing Yang said without hesitation, without the shyness of a girl.

Qin Shu's eyes were dazed for a moment, and then he smiled softly, "I, as a father, have neglected my duties. I didn't know that you fell in love with His Royal Highness. After seeing our Qingyang grow up, I also had the thoughts of a young girl Huaichun." gone."

He was originally handsome and handsome, but when he smiled at this moment, there seemed to be a round of warm morning sun between his brows, which made him feel warm.

Qingyang couldn't help but feel close to this father, so he also smiled, "I don't blame my father for neglecting his duty, I just kept it from myself."

In fact, even she herself didn't know when she fell in love with the prince.

It seems that since that day, when Shen Xin told her how excellent and superior the man in the palace was, she began to pay attention to the prince little by little.

So she found that the man was really handsome. When he smiled, he looked like a warm spring breeze, and when he had a straight face, he was cold and alienated like a cold winter. In short, no matter what kind of expression he had, he was vivid and beautiful.

And the most important thing is, as Shen Xin said, this is the most noble man in the world, only the most beautiful girl is worthy of him, and whoever stands beside him will shine brightly in his life.

Subconsciously, Qing Yang felt that she was the most beautiful girl in the world, because the emperor had no daughters under his knees, and she was the only princess in Gu Qi's generation. Is there any woman in the world more noble than her?

Naturally, since she is the most honorable girl, only she is worthy of the prince's elder brother.

For this kind of divine logic, people with brains in the world may only have two words to sum it up: ha ha.

However, Qingyang took it for granted that she was the true love of His Highness the Crown Prince.

In this brief moment, countless thoughts flashed through Qin Shu's mind.

Qingyang wants to participate in the draft and enter the palace to be the prince's concubine...

The Eldest Princess was probably already jumping in anger, and she didn't know where to send her anger...

If she went to participate in the palace examination, the crown prince might not let her pass smoothly...

If Qingyang suffers in the hall and fails to fulfill his wish, he will definitely make a fuss in hysteria, and the crown prince will definitely lose his temper and embarrass Qingyang...

If Qing Yang was humiliated, even if Yuan Shan knew that she was wrong, he would probably feel tormented by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's ruthlessness.

Over the past few days, Qin Shu has discovered a big loophole in his plan.

His son entered the palace and gained the trust of the prince since he was a child, and his status in the court has indeed achieved a major breakthrough, but he has overlooked one problem, that is, Qin Yuanshan is also a person of flesh and blood. He has grown up with the prince for so many years, not only the prince Treating him like a brother, he is also devoted and loyal to the prince.

Qin Shu was a little worried. If a coup d'etat was to be staged in the future, would Yuan Shan listen to him?
the answer is negative.

A large part of Qin Yuanshan's character is very similar to him, for example, he is always calm and calm when encountering problems, for example, he does not show dew on his face, for example, he is calm and careful in thinking about things, for example, he can look at things from the overall situation.

But the biggest difference between father and son is that Qin Yuanshan is soft-hearted, far inferior to Qin Shu. Except for those who care about, the rest are just floating clouds.

Qin Shu was afraid that one day Qin Yuanshan would not listen to his words and insisted on following the prince.

But after so many years of court life, father and son spent very little time together, and their relationship gradually became estranged.

If there is a chance to drive a little bit of separation between the son and the prince, that would be great.

Qin Shu's heart moved. With Qingyang's temperament, even if he entered the palace, he would be nothing more than a troublemaker. The prince could endure her once or twice for the sake of the princess, but he was determined not to endure it forever.

If there are too many times and Qingyang's heart is hurt, Yuan Shan, the younger brother, will probably be sad too.

Thinking of this, Qin Shu raised the corners of his lips slightly, smiled like a spring breeze, and reached out to touch his daughter's head, "Do you really want to participate in the draft and marry His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"

Qingyang nodded firmly and said without hesitation, "I want to!"

"Well, if Qingyang thinks, father will support you no matter what." He smiled softly, and winked at Qingyang like a real loving father, "Father will help you win the imperial examination, when the time comes you will Be good, because when you go to the Golden Luan Hall, you can only rely on yourself."

...Anyway, whether she can enter the palace or not in the end, Qing Yang will end up being injured, and as long as she is injured, Yuan Shan will also feel uncomfortable.

It's only a short time to be able to provoke a moment, and the future will last, and you can also think about it in the long run.

Qingyang didn't know Qin Shu's crooked intestines, but suddenly laughed, holding his father's hand and yelling, "Father loves me the most! My mother always knows how to scold me and control me, and never let me do what I want Well, my father is the best person in this world to me!"

She smiled so happily, she just felt that the handsome and gentle father was the best person in the world, she couldn't understand why her mother treated him like an enemy.

In her eyes, apart from her status, her mother was not worthy of her father at all.

The wind in early summer is gentle and pleasant, but if the eldest princess or Qingyang knew what Qin Shu was thinking, they would probably feel as if they had fallen into an ice cellar, biting the bone.

The eldest princess ignored Qing Yang's request, thinking that keeping her in the mansion every day to do other things to distract her would make her less concerned about the draft.

She even ordered someone to find out which princes and grandchildren in the capital were a good match for Qingyang, thinking that she would invite them to the mansion someday, and if Qingyang could fancy someone, she would go to the palace to invite the queen mother or prince Refers to marriage.

Although Qingyang is a bit willful, but at least she is a golden branch and jade leaf, and her appearance is also good, so marrying her will not be a disadvantage.

The eldest princess thinks very simply, you see, Qingyang grew up in the mansion, and he didn't have much chance to meet young talents. The prince is one of the few people of the same age and opposite sex that she can get in touch with, so it's not unusual to have a good impression.

If she was given more opportunities to meet other people, maybe this situation would change.

And it wasn't until the edict of the imperial examination arrived at the princess mansion that the eldest princess suddenly changed her face.

The white and mustache-free eunuch read the imperial decree softly in the courtyard, asking Princess Qingyang to prepare well and enter the palace to participate in the final interview of the draft three days later.

Hearing this, the Eldest Princess swayed suddenly, and ran forward in disbelief to snatch the imperial decree, but the brocade silk in her hand was clearly written in black on a yellow background, and there was also the prince's jade seal printed on it, so she couldn't help it. Do not believe.

Are you kidding me?
How did things turn out like this?
How could Qingyang be able to squeeze himself into the list of the palace examination?
She turned around in shock, only to find that the man in white clothes with a clear face came out from the backyard. There was a faint smile on his lips, and his eyebrows and eyes seemed to be indifferent to anyone in this world, just like before. The deception of the world.

But she suddenly woke up.

It's him!

Must be him!
