"Hidden tent" 18
The days pass by slowly, and it is no different on the surface. The girls travel in spring, enjoy flowers, recite poems and essays, and each of them is a bit brighter than the buds of spring.
But in fact, the Empress is organizing a marriage for the Fourth Prince. Who doesn’t have a girl of the right age and who doesn’t have any thoughts?
But I heard that the Empress not only looked at the concubine for the fourth prince, but also recruited Yuan to enter the palace for four consecutive months. After everyone thought, yes, the prince of the Lu family was also at the age of marriage.
This made many people eager to try and shrink.
The Lu family, the marquis family, holds military power and guards northern Hebei. Looking at the entire Kyoto, there are no better families. But then again, looking at the entire Kyoto, can you find a few more romantic people than Lu Jiuxiao?
I am afraid that there will be countless girls who marry and concubines, and they will be married.
Yuan never knew the concerns of others. After sighing repeatedly, he finally picked up his mother's airs and invited the person to the small room.
But this man not only came, but also came with a smell of powder. Look at those eyes, I don’t know how many quarters of an hour I slept at night, red, green, and decadent atmosphere, I was afraid that others would not know what he had done.
"You, you--" Yuan grabbed the silk handkerchief and looked at his son who was not sitting in front of him, and could not say anything to scold him for a moment.
Lu Jiuxiao raised his eyes and pinched his eyebrows tiredly, "Mother, just say something."
Yuan sighed and said sideways: "The Queen has seen a few girls for you. Recently, you have restrained yourself. Don't go to those - Tianshui Lane and the gambling house. Do you have to give me some of the queen's face?"
Lu Jiuxiao didn't say anything, but frowned slightly, and said for a while: "What do she care about me?"
"It's the Lord of the Lord who means that the Lord of the Lord loves you. Seeing his age, it's not surprising that he is worried about your marriage." Yuan said.
Lu Jiuxiao's brows frowned even tighter, and the meaning was clearly-
The emperor is idle, what does he do?
However, he was still concerned about the majesty of the emperor and said with a look of disgust: "Let's talk about it."
After Lu Jiuxiao left, Yuan looked at the tea he had just drunk and shook his head repeatedly.
The waiter Madam Bai helped her sit down and comforted her: "Madam, the prince has this temper, just take his time."
Yuan covered his heart and said, "I blame me for urinating, and I dared not care about it or scold him, so that he got along with me. Do you think his current temperament is developed by being angry with me and the Marquis? Didn't I harm him?"
Madam Bai opened her mouth and finally said nothing to comfort her.
Every family has difficult sutras, how can others understand?
------------
April is already late spring.
A few days ago, the emperor was infected with the cold wind and cold, and the palace was ready to fight, so he did not dare to hold a banquet of all sizes. Finally, the emperor's dragon body became healthy, so Queen Li sent someone to pick up a spring banquet.
I invited many noble ladies of the right age to enjoy the flowers, and the meaning must be investigated in depth.
The Li Kingdom has not yet established a crown prince. There were only six princes who were still healthy and healthy. There were two legitimate princes, one was the second prince produced by the former queen, and the other was the fourth prince produced by Empress Li.
The second prince was sent to Jiyang because of the unfavorable military service in the early years. Therefore, the fourth prince was the one who was most confident of taking the position of the Eastern Palace.
In this way, the identity of this quasi-crown princess has naturally become a hot commodity for everyone.
Not long after, the fourth prince came into the palace.
Zhao Huaimin first went to the Imperial Garden to pay tribute to Queen Li. At first glance, a group of young women of fair appearance seemed to be covering their faces because of his appearance.
Queen Li groaned and waved her hand and said, "Go and pay tribute to your father."
Zhao Huaimin bowed and said that.
The queen called him again and frowned and said, "Criminal Lu is in the Ganqing Palace. Please be more willing to speak and don't have a quarrel with him. Your father is not happy."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Huaimin's face darkened, and the sound of "yes" deserved to be a little angry and aggrieved.
He is as big as Lu Jiuxiao and has suffered a lot of losses in his hands since he was a child. But his father loved him. No matter how unreasonable he was, he could become a reasonable way.
God knows how tired he is to appear in the same place with the Prince of Laoshizi.
Ganqing Palace.
Above the purple pottery incense burner, the sound of cigarettes curling. The sound of "da" is particularly abrupt in the empty warm pavilion.
After a while, Lu Jiuxiao's snatched Bai Zi was defeated. He threw the chess piece into the porcelain jar indifferently and said lightly: "It's defeated."
Emperor Xuanwu shook his head and snorted, "You not only did not advance in your chess skills, but also retreated."
Lu Jiuxiao didn't say anything, lowered his head and muttered it. When he was annoyed, he frowned and rubbed his ears, but he didn't interrupt it in the end.
Speaking of dry mouth, Emperor Xuanwu lowered his head and took a few sips of tea, moistened his throat, and finally came to the point.
"Is there anything the girl the queen looks at you like?"
Lu Jiuxiao paused his fingertips and said lazily: "No."
Emperor Xuanwu then asked, "Why don't you look down on me? Where is it not to your liking?"
At this moment, Zhao Huaimin entered the hall.
Then I heard Lu Jiuxiao's uncontrollable reply: "It's a nuisance to see."
"You--" Emperor Xuanwu patted the table lightly, but was speechless for a moment.
Zhao Huaimin couldn't help but say, "Class Lu went in and out of Tianshui Lane every day. The girls there, with their beautiful appearance, have made Prince Lu's eyes shy."
Lu Jiuxiao sneered, looked at Zhao Huaimin, and smiled politely at him, "The fourth prince has a valuable status and cannot be left. If I am really itchy, I will pick two of you to send them to the mansion? Should I be able to sing small songs, or can I play the pipa?"
Zhao Huaimin widened his eyes and said angrily: "Who is so itchy? Who likes to listen to the little song of the pipa? Lu Jiuxiao, don't think--"
"Okay! Okay! Afraid, and you'll be quarrels as soon as you meet. As a prince, you don't have any stomach!" Emperor Xuanwu scolded.
Zhao Huaimin had to suppress his anger and whispered to admit his mistake.
After a few moments of silence, Emperor Xuanwu said slowly: "The little girl from the He family accompanied the queen to appreciate the flowers in the imperial garden. I just saw it and didn't expect that she had grown into a graceful and graceful girl. She was the one who was Huaizhou's brother Chang Huaizhou. I thought, Hello, He family, if you want it, I will be another day-"
"Emperor." Lu Jiuxiao frowned and interrupted him, "The minister had no intention."
Look. Look.
Who else can interrupt the emperor like this except Lu Jiuxiao?
Zhao Huaimin saw that his father's face turned pale, and he was about to slap the table and scold him. He was light in his opinion. But in a blink of an eye, he actually endured his anger.
Emperor Xuanwu said in confusion: "You have always been in good relationships with the He family, and you and He Chen were also--"
Having said that, he suddenly stopped.
Not to mention the palace servants serving in the hall, even Zhao Huaimin, who was watching the show, couldn't help but stiffen his back and secretly glance at Lu Jiuxiao.
After a while, Lu Jiuxiao stood up and bowed, "Since the fourth prince has something to talk to, the minister will leave."
"Wait." Emperor Xuanwu called him, "Your father guards northern Jilin and works hard and has made great contributions. Even if you can't bear his legacy, you can't do nothing all day long. I have been thinking about it, so it's better to have an errand for you. The official position is not big, but decent."
At this point, Lu Jiuxiao still declined.
Zhao Huaimin was simply stunned. He had seen someone who was ignorant of being polite, and had never seen someone who was so ignorant of being so ignorant of being polite.
After Lu Jiuxiao left, he said angrily: "Father, why do you have to be so kind to him?"
"You know what?" Emperor Xuanwu said with a depressed expression.
------------
As soon as he left the Ganqing Palace and reached the Wumen Gate, he saw Yin Zhong rushing to the front of him. He stepped forward and whispered a few words, and Lu Jiuxiao frowned slightly.
Soon, he hurriedly stepped onto the carriage.
He Min, who followed her all the way, had no time to say something to her, and saw his carriage leaving.
The maid said, "I guess there must be something urgent to do in this hurry."
He Min held the palm of her hand tightly, and just had a conversation with Qinggong. As soon as Lu Jiuxiao left, his back foot came into her ears.
Brother Huaizhou really rejected the marriage that Sheng Uehara planned to give them.
She was very puzzled. Brother Huaizhou treated her very well. Looking around in Kyoto, he only treated her differently, helped her, took risks for her, indulged her, and tolerated her, so why didn't he marry her?
Thinking of this, He Min gritted her teeth and stepped onto the carriage, "Come on, keep up."
The wheels were rumbling and we walked all the way to Tianshui Lane.
The servant who drove the car parked the carriage at the entrance of the alley and turned around carefully and asked, "Girl, do you still have to go in?"
He Min opened the car curtain in a daze, but for a moment he didn't know what to do.
Not surprising at all, he was Guan Ai coming to such a place, and it was not the first time she knew about it. Thinking of this, He Min bit her lip hard, and was about to respond to "return", but she heard a rumbling sound coming from the front.
She hurriedly asked the servant to park the carriage aside, and opened a gap by herself.
However, He Min quickly petrified and became in place.
The red-topped carriage passed by, the wind blew across the carriage curtains, and He Min could see the people and things inside through the gap.
The man inside was pinching the woman's chin, getting very close, very close...
He Min's eyes were red, and she stammered her neck and said to the maid beside her: "Didn't you say that Brother Huaizhou has never taken these prostitutes away? Then what is this?"
The little maid was also stunned and stuttered: "I have asked for it, but I have never..."
"Okay!" He Min interrupted with a cold face, "Follow up, hurry up."
To be continued...
