Crowned with Pearls

   Chapter 1261 Chapter 60 · Is this the chosen guard?

   Xiao Heng went out to serve as a director, and Su Yao went back to the East Palace by himself.

   She was so tired, she had been busy with getting married these days, and today she went to kowtow in various palaces. She was so tired that she couldn't lift her arms.

  Jin Ping and Shen's mother were very distressed, and hurriedly asked her to go back to sleep for a while.

  Su Yao really couldn't hold it anymore, and fell asleep as soon as she touched the bed.

   When she woke up again, it was already dark, she was a little startled, and hurriedly got up.

Mother Shen heard the movement and came in, she knew what she was thinking when she saw it, she smiled and said: "Don't worry, Your Highness has come back before, and seeing that you are still sleeping, I specifically told us not to disturb you, let us follow you Say, nothing to do today, you will eat first when you wake up, and he will discuss the coastal defense of Zhejiang with the Zhans today, I am afraid that he will not come back so early, so you don't have to wait."

   After saying this, Mother Shen always had a smile on her face.

   Her own girl can have such a considerate and gentle husband, how can she be unhappy? To be honest, Xiao Heng, even if he is not a grandson, is really precious to be able to do things like this. Besides, he still has such a background. Shen's mother looked at him and felt that meeting Xiao Heng was really a high fever in his previous life. Fragrant good things.

   Su invites some emotions too.

In her last life, she was Cheng Dingan's daughter-in-law, and she would get up early every morning to make rules for her mother-in-law. How much he can relax, Cheng Li is hard to take, he is always tearful when the nanny takes him, she can only take it by herself, every night she can't sleep, she doesn't know what it's like to wake up.

   But now that he is married to Xiao Heng, Xiao Heng's identity is only higher than that of Cheng Ding'an, but he has never asked her, but is considerate and gentle everywhere.

   She sincerely considers herself lucky.

   heaved a sigh of relief. It was getting late when Su invited to meet, so he instructed the female official in the East Palace: "Please come over tomorrow with Eunuch Hu from the Ministry of Internal Affairs."

  The female officer hurriedly agreed.

  Su invites no longer to be a board member this day. She sleeps a lot during the day, but she can't sleep at night, so she simply sits by the window and reads a book.

   After an unknown amount of time, she suddenly heard the maid outside saluting and calling Your Highness.

   followed closely, and before she put down her book, Xiao Heng pushed the door and came in.

   Seeing Su Yao still sitting by the window reading a book, Xiao Heng raised his eyebrows in surprise: "Why haven't you slept yet? Didn't someone come back and report that I won't be back so early?"

  Su Yao stood up with a smile: "I slept a lot during the day, but I've never been sleepy. Have you eaten?"

   Xiao Heng also laughed: "When you say I'm hungry, the East Palace sent out a regular dish before, but we were busy and didn't eat very well. Now I'm hungry."

  Su invited Mama Shen to come in and instructed the small kitchen to cook ham and bamboo shoot noodles.

The chefs in the small kitchen were all brought out by the imperial kitchen, and they worked hard to express it. In addition, it was the food that His Highness ordered to eat. It was even more careful. He took the broth from the chicken soup and cooked a bowl of ham, bamboo shoots, noodles, and ham. The slices are thin, and the bamboo shoots are fresh and crisp, making people feel warm in their stomachs watching the New Year on this winter night.

   Xiao Heng pushed it to Su Yao.

  Su Yao shook his head: "I'm too full to eat at night, I can't eat any more."

   When she said that, Xiao Heng did not force her to eat a whole bowl of noodles by himself.

   It can be seen that I am really hungry.

The next day, Xiao Heng still went out to do things outside. Zhejiang coastal defense needs to send people there. How to choose people, the personnel department is also fighting non-stop. If he wants to do things in the personnel department, he has to do his homework in advance. I've been very busy lately.

  Su invite also has her own things to do.

   Eunuch Hu came after breakfast with a very respectful attitude.

  Su invited to ask the candidate of the consort first.

   Hearing that it was this matter, Eunuch Hu was a little surprised, but did not expect that Su invited to be in charge of this matter.

But he was very clever and didn't ask any more questions. He just smiled and reported to Su Yao: "It happens that there are already five candidates. They are all selected by the people. One is from Jinan, Shandong, called Chen Xianyi. He is a scholar and some are talented. He is from Yongxiu, Jiangxi, and he has no fame, but he is literate. Another is from Hexian, Anhui, named Lu Yongning, who is a dutiful son.”

  Listen to the candidates, all of them are wealthy folk.

  Su Yao nodded, noncommittal: "All these people are here now?"

   Eunuch Hu nodded: "These five candidates were selected after a series of selections, and they are still in other palaces outside the city. If you want to meet them, it is also feasible."

  Su invites to ponder for a moment, and asks Eunuch Hu, "What other selections do they have recently?"

   Eunuch Hu thought for a while: "Yes, there is a selection for horseback riding recently."

horse riding.

  Su Yao hummed: "Then I'll go take a look when the time comes. Eunuch Hu will let me know when the time comes."

   Eunuch Hu hurriedly agreed.

  Su Yao asked Eunuch Hu again what these candidates will experience after they are selected.

   Eunuch Hu wanted to please this concubine, so he told Su Yao the procedures he knew one by one.

   The things that the concubine learned are actually similar to those of the show girls. Anyway, they were all the rules of the palace, and how to serve the princess.

   The more Su Yao listened, the more unreliable he felt.

   It is simply unrealistic to ask those grandma and eunuchs to teach the concubine how to get along with the princess and how to restrain her desires.

Humans have desires, and the things that Mammy and the eunuchs have painstakingly taught are of no use at all. What they teach is just a puppet without a soul. They will execute it step by step at the beginning, but after a period of time, will change.

   This is human nature.

   is also the reason why most princesses who marry are unhappy.

  Su Yao felt that this kind of ancestral system was useless except to prevent nobles from encroaching on higher powers.

   was even a way for the emperor to send his daughters and sisters away.

   It’s not too much trouble, just send my daughter away.

   This kind of princess is not as good as the daughter of an ordinary noble family.

   At least the closeness of those noble families is really a lot of good people who can marry.

   She pondered slightly and sent Eunuch Hu.

   But Shen's mother also heard something wrong, and said very disapprovingly: "If you choose like this, where is the consort, it's like choosing an escort."

  Su invite also smiled.

   She already felt that she didn't need to consider these five candidates anymore, but since the censors insisted on following the ancestral system, she naturally had to see how these five people were.

   She said softly: "What's going on, I can't make a decision right now. I'll see them in a few days and then I'll take my mother with me, and my mother will help me to see how they are."
