Chu Xiurong suddenly said these words, Concubine Xu was stunned, and Eunuch Jinzhong was also startled, and smiled helplessly. The surprise was also expected. King Qi had a deep love for Chen Danzhu, and it was still difficult to find it at the last moment.
Accept that there is no fate in this life.
Concubine Xian glanced at Concubine Xu, and a hint of a lively smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. Concubine Xu couldn't help but turned her head and looked at Chu Xiurong fiercely.
"It's about girls." She controlled her emotions and scolded softly, "Don't join in the fun."
Chu Xiurong said: "It's not just a matter of girls. Mother, concubine, and I have just received the congratulatory gift from Master Huizhi, so please share my blessings with everyone."
Concubine Xu's teeth were about to be broken. She had known her son's nature for a long time. He looked gentle, kind to people, and easy to talk to, but in fact, his heart was wrapped up in layers. No one could see through it, and there was no one in his heart.
——After many warnings, in the end, I still have to trample on the dignity and face of my biological mother.
This sudden change made everyone present look a little complicated, except the Crown Princess.
The Crown Princess was sitting in the pavilion and could hardly help laughing. Oh, the excitement was as expected.
Before today's banquet, the prince asked her to do one thing, which was to walk around in the crowd and treat every woman warmly. She didn't understand what it meant at first and thought that the prince also wanted to choose Liangdi. Although
She was sad but cheered up, until she heard the maids whispering that she was choosing someone for the crown prince or the fifth prince, and the one she chose was Chen Danzhu.
Now I see that King Qi suddenly went against Concubine Xu, the virtuous concubine, and everything is clear.
It turned out that the prince deliberately asked her to irritate King Qi.
Come on, because of your Chen Danzhu, you messed up this concubine selection. Maybe your Majesty will deprive you of the royal title in anger, demote you to a commoner, and be imprisoned like the fifth prince - this is what will happen if you overshadow the prince.
The Crown Princess lowered her head and pretended to cough and smiled secretly.
Well, in this case, she can be regarded as having made a great contribution to the prince.
"Then there's no need." A woman's voice rang out from the quiet crowd outside the pavilion, "How can His Highness be so lucky?"
Everyone looked over and saw Chen Danzhu standing at the end of the crowd. Chu Xiurong looked over and said firmly: "There are three of us. The second brother and the fourth brother are all like me."
The expression of King Yan and King Lu also changed, and King Lu took a step back in fright. No, no, he is different. Don't let Chen Danzhu see him.
Chen Danzhu did not look at King Lu, only shook his head at Chu Xiurong and said with a smile: "The blessings of the three princes are great, but I don't think it is greater than the blessings of the two empresses. After all, they gave birth to the three princes. That is
What a blessing."
Concubine Xu laughed and pointed at Chen Danzhu: "Danzhu is really good at talking. No wonder His Majesty praises you every day."
Concubine Xian also laughed, and her eyes turned to Concubine Xu and Chen Danzhu. These two people looked very friendly? They even sang together?
"Okay, Ah Xiu." Concubine Xu smiled again and looked at Chu Xiurong, "This is a matter arranged by Your Majesty, Concubine Xian, so please don't interfere."
Concubine Xian sneered in her heart, the wife your son chose was not arranged by me, don't bring hatred to me.
"His Royal Highness King Qi." She smiled gently at Chu Xiurong and said, "This is His Majesty's arrangement. You see, your new idea is also very good. Why don't you go and tell His Majesty first?"
Concubine Xu clenched her hands on her knees and asked King Qi to tell His Majesty. Wouldn't it be tantamount to messing up the matter this time? This poisonous woman who always pretends to be virtuous——
"I have to wait for this to come and go." Chen Danzhu's voice sounded again, "I can't wait any longer. I want to see my luck."
She walked over briskly, followed by Liu Wei and Li Lian who hesitated for a moment.
"To tell you the truth, ladies." Chen Danzhu smiled at Concubine Xu, "I have offered a lot of incense in front of the Buddha in the past few years. I will definitely get the best lucky bag this time."
Concubine Xu looked at Chen Danzhu now, and the smile in her eyes overflowed: "Then I wish Miss Danzhu that all her wishes will come true."
Concubine Xian glanced at the palace maid: "Why don't you wait for Miss Danzhu to choose the lucky bag?"
The maid standing next to Concubine Xian hurriedly stepped forward to open the box and put her hand in first: "Slave, shake it first." As expected, her hand was pouring inside, "Miss Danzhu, please choose."
Chen Danzhu put her hand in, and just as she was about to grab it, a lucky bag hit her hand. Before she could say anything else, the palace maid grabbed her hand and pulled it out: "Congratulations, Miss Danzhu, you've made your choice." Without waiting for Chen Danzhu, she said.
He spoke and said, "One person can only choose once."
Chen Danzhu looked at the lucky bag in his hand, half-smiling.
"Please forgive me, Miss Danzhu." Concubine Xian whispered to her with a sincere expression, "This is all His Majesty's arrangement."
Of course, choosing a lucky bag is not really a random choice. The princess has already chosen it and will not let anyone who shouldn't get it get it.
So there is nothing wrong with the palace maid giving her a lucky bag.
This arrangement was indeed reasonable and reasonable and did not deliberately target her flaws. Chen Danzhu looked at Concubine Xian and then at the maid. She didn't know whether Concubine Xian was arranged by the prince or Concubine Xian's maid——
She smiled at Concubine Xian and shook the lucky bag in her hand: "Okay, I'll choose it." Then she turned around and didn't look at Chu Xiurong again.
Chu Xiurong looked at the girl's back and said nothing.
"Miss Danzhu has finished choosing, let's choose." Li Lian pulled Liu Wei forward and saluted.
Concubine Xian looked at them and smiled: "Choose."
Li Lian and Liu Wei each chose a lucky bag from the box and followed Chen Danzhu, and the three of them quickly walked out of the pavilion.
It was not until this moment that Concubine Xu breathed a sigh of relief. The clothes on her back were wet with sweat. She stretched out her hand to press her heart. The two million dollars were so worth it.
With Chen Danzhu's intervention, things returned to the established order. The girls humbly entered the pavilion one after another to choose lucky bags, chatting and laughing everywhere, and it was lively inside and outside.
Chen Danzhu, Li Lian and Liu Wei stood back where they were. They were both looking at their lucky bags with great interest. Although the princess was definitely not destined to them, it was a rare opportunity to receive the lucky bag from the imperial master at the royal banquet.
.
"Have you opened it?" Suddenly other women came over and joked with them.
Li Lian smiled and said, "Not yet." She stretched out her hand and squeezed the lucky bag, "But I have squeezed it, and there is no Buddhist verse in it."
Chen Danzhu had no intention of speaking, and the women seemed to be no longer afraid of her. There were still a few standing beside her, and suddenly a hand reached over and took her hand.
Before Chen Danzhu turned around to look, something was stuffed into her hand, and she understood a little bit - it was money given by Concubine Xu's family.
"Let's go see other people's." The women said with a smile again, and walked away huffing and puffing.
"Danzhu, where's yours?" Liu Wei asked, "Do you have any Buddhist verses?"
Chen Danzhu held both hands in front of him and smiled with crooked eyes: "It doesn't matter whether there are Buddhist verses or not. The important thing is that the lucky bag can bring wealth."
What does wealth mean? Liu Wei doesn’t understand.
In the pavilion, Concubine Xian interrupted the excitement, and the lucky bags brought by Eunuch Jinzhong were all chosen.
"Come, let me see who got the lucky bag with the Buddha's verses?" Concubine Xian said, and smiled at Eunuch Jinzhong again, "My father-in-law, I also want to stop and listen."
The contents of the three princes' verses are not told to everyone here to avoid shyness among the girls present. The emperor must know that when Eunuch Jinzhong reports the results here, the people in the hall will understand and get the results.
The three women who chanted the same Buddhist verses as the princes were a perfect match for the King of Qi.
After hearing Concubine Xian's words, all the women present looked at their lucky bags, and their expressions changed in different ways. Some were curled up in despair, some were shy and secretly happy, and some were uneasy. There were more than three people who received the Buddha's verses.
I still don’t know if it can be the same as the princes.
"Come on." Concubine Xu suggested again with a smile, "Read what you get, so that everyone can be blessed."
So the women stood up one by one and shyly recited the Buddhist verses they had received under the envious, indifferent and jealous eyes of everyone.
Whenever a woman recited a Buddhist verse, everyone's eyes would be fixed on the three princes and the two princesses, trying to find out which one was the princess from their expressions.
But the two princesses smiled equally. Among the three princes, King Yan's face was expressionless, King Qi's face was calm, King Lu - King Lu was probably too nervous to hide behind the two princes, and his body could not be seen, let alone his face.
.
Soon all sixteen women had finished reciting, and Concubine Xu smiled even more happily, and Eunuch Jinzhong also beamed: "Congratulations ladies, I will go and tell His Majesty right now."
Just as he was about to leave, a girl suddenly shouted, "Miss Danzhu, where's yours? Does it also have Buddhist verses? You -"
Eunuch Jinzhong paused, and all eyes were focused on Chen Danzhu, while Chu Xiurong's eyes fell on the woman——
Although the woman didn't know that King Qi was looking over, she could still feel the coldness. She couldn't help but shrink her head, and what she was about to say stopped abruptly.
Chen Danzhu also looked at this woman, but he was not angry at all. He just cursed in his heart this idiot who was arranged by the prince.
"Miss Danzhu also has Buddhist verses?" Concubine Xu asked with a smile, "Probably not. The Imperial Master said there are only sixteen."
Before Concubine Xian spoke, the Crown Princess over there couldn't help but said: "You can't say that, what if Miss Danzhu is blessed with great fortune?" She looked at Chen Danzhu with a smile, "Open your lucky bag and show it to everyone.
Bar."
Alas, knowing that these people would not let Chen Danzhu go, Li Lian and Liu Wei looked at Chen Danzhu worriedly.
I don’t know whether Chen Danzhu’s blessing bag was empty and was ridiculed for not being blessed, or whether there was some not-so-good Buddhist verse in it.
Chen Danzhu took out the lucky bag and smiled at the Crown Princess. In fact, she didn't need to ask intentionally, she wanted to open it anyway. She couldn't let the Crown Prince arrange it in vain, couldn't let her and Chu Yurong's busy work go in vain, and couldn't let King Lu go in vain.
Falling into the water——
"Okay." She shook the lucky bag, squeezed it with her hands, listened attentively, and smiled, "It seems there is something there."
Really? This woman is really weird. Concubine Xu didn’t dare to speak. She couldn’t help but look at the female guest from her mother’s family in the crowd. Did you get the money?
Concubine Xian always had a good temper, so she followed the words and said, "Really, that is such a blessing, Miss Danzhu, open it and take a look?"
Chen Danzhu smiled and untied the drawstring of the lucky bag——
All eyes were fixed on the girl's movements. The Crown Princess clenched her hands even more, holding back the excitement in her eyes. The good show is coming, the good show is coming, the good show is coming——
Although King Qi wanted to cause trouble just now and was stopped by Chen Danzhu, if Chen Danzhu took out the Buddhist verse and recited the same content as the fifth prince, King Qi would definitely make trouble again and tear up Chen Danzhu's Buddhist verse.
Either tear off his own, or go to the prince to question——
No matter what, in the eyes of the emperor, King Qi was crazy.
Chu Xiurong also looked at Chen Danzhu. He looked calm and had a smile in his eyes, gentle and firm.
Everyone saw Chen Danzhu open the lucky bag, put her fingers in, and then stopped in disbelief, her almond-shaped eyes widened, and her cherry mouth opened slightly——
Sure enough, she must be surprised! She must be scared! The princess couldn't help but stand up.
"Miss Danzhu, what is it?" she asked happily.
Chen Danzhu's eyes were surprised, and he murmured a little absently: "Yes, wealth."
Wealth?
What does wealth mean?
Everyone was startled and looked puzzled.
Wealth means, Chen Danzhu looked at the lucky bag and found that her lucky bag contained five Buddhist verses.
Five pictures.
There are three princes and two princes.
It's all in her lucky bag now.
In the Buddhist hall of Tingyun Temple, the smoke was so thick that the face of Master Huizhi standing in front of the Buddha was blurred.
He clasped his hands and closed his eyes in silence, "Chen Danzhu, I have tried my best and wish you happiness."
