Dressed as a man with the eldest son

61

It was cold in the twelfth lunar month, and snowflakes were flying in the capital. There were no bannermen coming and going in the garrison, and they all hid in the barracks to warm up.

Nan Ruo heard the sound of playing cards and playing mahjong in every barracks in full swing all the way to his own barracks, but luckily he was not disappointed, Xu Xinquan was leading a group of banner men around the stove listening to people's stories.

Nan Ruo was stunned by the wonderful dubbing by the storyteller.

After listening to it for a while, I realized that it was the story of Li Jiajun from the previous dynasty, so I didn't go in, and asked Wei Siyuan to call Xu Xinquan out.

"General Banner!" Xu Xinquan looked joyfully, looked back at the barracks, and explained, "It's cold outside, and the subordinates have reduced the training time, thinking that they are idle, so they asked the storyteller to pass the time."

"Not bad." Nan Ruo praised, it was better than gathering together to gamble, "Go, don't disturb them, go talk to the side."

He also asked Wei Siyuan to call Shao Huaiting and Tang Gang away to find out about the situation at the station after he left.

Most of them were trivial matters, and nothing major happened. Liu Shou and Wu Yong didn't take advantage of him not looking for trouble, but stayed at home to recuperate from their injuries, and no one from thousands of households stood up for them, but he was demoted from a small flag to a flag Ding's Zhou Qian found someone to clear it, and moved to another barracks.

"Let him go."

If Nan didn't care, he only needed to take care of his Xiaoqi and his family soldiers. How about the bannermen, that's what Xiaoqi needed to worry about. If he makes a mistake, he only looks for Xiao Qi, and Xiao Qi will take care of his subordinates.

This kind of trivial matter of Qi Ding hopping to find someone to fill the vacancy is a headache for Xu Xinquan and the others. He only cares about the result and doesn't care about the process.

After entering the number nine, it was freezing cold, and all the barracks stopped drills according to the rules of previous years. Only Xu Xinquan and the three of them insisted with the bannermen. Others who are willing to come can come, and if they don’t come, they don’t force it, including those who have signed up for the school examination of.

However, the carrot hanging in the front is really attractive, and there are quite a few people who insist on it.

Nan Ruo pondered for a moment, then said: "Since Tan Zhenfu and I are back, it's time to start the school examination. Let us know that the school examination will be held in five days."

Five days is enough time for them to prepare.

After explaining, Nan Ruo left Wei Siyuan to tell them what he had seen and heard about the south of the Yangtze River, and went to the Zhen Fu Division himself to talk to Tan Ying.

By the way, I found my fourth uncle, Zhao Rong, and took away the secret (eight) news (gua) accumulated by the club for more than a month, to see if there was any usable information.

Two days later, news suddenly came from the palace: Princess Anle was granted the title of Princess Anle, and at the same time married Zhou Xuan, the fifth son of the Marquis of Beining. The marriage will be completed three years later.

When Nan Ruo heard the news, he was accepting the daily teaching activities in the father's yard. Hearing the news, he quickly searched for the information of Marquis Beining in his mind.

The Marquis of Beining is one of the founding feats of Dayan. The current Marquis of Beining, Zhou Chang, is in charge of General Yin and guards Beining. He has six sons. The eldest son and the second son died in battle. The third son and the fourth son are in charge of the command. The fifth son, Zhou Xuan, is weak and did not join the military. Grandmother, the sixth son has no impression, he should be still young.

The Zhou family has an upright family style, and Nan Ruo has a good impression of Zhou Xuan, and even talked to him a few words during the Mid-Autumn Palace banquet, he is a gentle and polite young man.

For An Le, it was a good marriage.

But why did Emperor Yongzhao suddenly think of Anle?Princess Feng means to confirm the rumors that An Le is his daughter, isn't it telling everyone in disguise that he and Princess Kangyi had a relationship before she reunited?

The green hat that had been speculated for ten years on the top of Jianchanghou's head was now wearing a solid one, and at this moment he was so frightened that he wanted to die.

Marriage at this juncture...

Nan Ruo met the scumbag's encouraging gaze, and expressed his speculation: "Your Majesty wants to use Princess Anle to appease the courtiers?"

The son no longer chooses a concubine, so he just takes a daughter as the top?

It just so happens that An Le has also reached the age of engagement.

Wait, remembering the [-]% discount on the original text, Nan Ruo suddenly realized that maybe Anle is really the daughter of Emperor Yongzhao and Princess Kangyi!

But if it is, Emperor Yongzhao's attitude towards Princess Anle these years is really not like his own daughter, especially compared with Changle, it is far behind, but he did not forget to arrange a good marriage for her.

Can't help but look at the scumbag father: "What is Anle..."

Nangong Yunlin rubbed his chin, also very gossipy: "I want to know too, but seeing that the Holy Majesty won't tell the truth, that's all right, don't worry so much, no matter what the truth is, now just remember that An Le is a princess. It's done, it should be farther in the future, don't get involved in these messy things."

You also know that you are messed up.

Nan Ruo actually wanted to ask him what he thought about Empress Zheng, but she also knew that she would not tell him the truth, so she gave up.

Starting from Anle, Emperor Yongzhao seemed to be possessed by the old moon, and every day in the next few days, the decree of bestowing marriage was released.

First of all, Xia Houchun and his clan, almost all the singles were married by him. Except for Xia Houchun who was favored and married to noble daughters, the others were all chosen by the people.

Then there are honorable courtiers, and all the noble girls who participated in the screening were given marriages.

Nan Ruo laid out a special piece of paper, listed the couples who were married by Emperor Yongzhao, and analyzed them slowly. He had never cultivated a sense of politics before, so he could learn more, observe more and think more.

Until the examination meeting, he was still applauding and pondering.

The school examination was held very smoothly, many registered, but not many persisted, most of them came as a foil, but there were also a small number of outstanding performances, which made people's eyes shine.

At least Tan Ying and the other thousands of households who came to join in the fun had their eyes lit up, and they clapped and applauded.

The final top ten were all divided up and taken away by them, Nan Ruo could only settle for the next best choice and took the eleventh to fifteenth.

Then, in front of the whole camp, each of the top 11 who got the excellent word evaluation was rewarded with a hundred taels of silver, and a piece of returning member, and No.[-] was directly promoted as his fifth flag.

The bannermen from ordinary backgrounds showed envy and remorse at the same time, including some nobles in the world. Not all of them were from rich families. Can't afford to lose.

Even if you don't covet the 100 taels, you still covet the members who have returned to the park, and they will have face when they take it out.

This is what Nan Ruo wanted. He wasn't worried about the division of talent at all. At worst, he just practiced. He wasn't a technical talent, so it wasn't rare.

After the school examination meeting, it will be the 20th day of the twelfth lunar month in a blink of an eye, and the holidays will start from the [-]th day of the twelfth lunar month. Dayan has [-] days of holidays before and after the Spring Festival. To the fifth day, then thirteen to seventeen.

Busy and suddenly idle, Nan Ruo was a little uncomfortable for a while, and was about to find something to do, when suddenly Fu Zhuo came to the door.

"Why, if I don't look for you, you plan to never look for us?" Fu Zhuo came up to pre-emptively complained to him, "I told you that we will go our own way in private, it's okay, I've already mentioned it to the Holy Master, don't worry Bar."

Nan Ruo brought tea to him in person: "Where did you go, it's not because of this, but because I'm really busy recently, and I'm not going to find you when I'm free, so here you are."

Fu Zhuo teased: "I still think you are a nobleman who forgets things and forgets about us."

"Stop it." Nan Ruo said, "It's almost done."

After chatting here and there, Fu Zhuo didn't seem to have any serious business to come to him, just passing by to see if he was there.

Nan Ruo chatted with him for a long time, after thinking about it, he asked how the prince was doing.

Now it is inconvenient for him to enter the palace frequently, and it is even more inconvenient for him to ask his servants, so as not to spread it to the ears of the empress. Earlier, King Rong said that he would tell them after watching the prince, but he has not entered the palace recently, and he has not seen King Rong. .

It just so happened that Fu Zhuo knew for sure.

Fu Zhuo sighed, and said: "Your Highness is not very good, as you can see, His Majesty didn't want to choose a concubine for His Highness at all this time, His Highness's reputation was in vain, and it was thankless to go back to the south of the Yangtze River, and he nearly broke his knees when he came back... ..."

so serious?

Nan Ruo frowned.

Fu Zhuo sighed: "Your Highness is stubborn, others can't persuade him easily, anyway, I can't persuade him, no, I got into a stalemate with His Majesty a few days ago, I have to sneak around to see him these two days, so I can't be discovered by His Majesty. "

Nan Ruo slowly tasted it, the prince knelt and fainted because of Jiangnan's affairs?He hasn't given up yet?

He was stunned for a moment, thinking of Yang Tao, who had been sleeping forever, with complicated emotions, the prince was more responsible and courageous than he thought.

But in Emperor Yongzhao's place, this matter has obviously turned the page.

Fu Zhuo suddenly said: "Why don't you persuade Your Highness to let him be soft with the Holy Majesty, in a few days there will be a grand court meeting, the prince will not appear at the grand court meeting, and there will be a palace banquet later."

Nan Ruo shook his head: "You can't persuade me, and I can't persuade you anymore. The prince should know it well."

He didn't think the prince was a person who disregarded the overall situation, and he must have other reasons for doing so.

Fu Zhuo suggested: "Try it, you can write something casually and I will take it to His Highness, let His Highness know that there are still people thinking about it, maybe you will feel better."

Nan Ruo glanced at him suspiciously. Why did he feel that he seemed to have malicious intentions, but he was really worried about the prince. After thinking twice, he wrote a small composition about the school examination meeting.

Putting down the pen and looking up, he seemed to see Fu Zhuo's indescribable eyes.

"No more?" he asked.

Nan Ruo lowered his head and looked at it, it seemed a bit too official, after thinking about it, he added a sentence of wishing His Highness a speedy health.

How does it feel like it's more official.

"Forget it, that's it." Fu Zhuo waved his hands weakly.

After putting away the letter paper, he asked again: "Is there anything else you want me to bring to Your Highness?"

Nan Ruo hesitated for a moment, then said: "The flowers on the mountain still need to be taken care of by Your Highness."

"Flowers?" Fu Zhuo was puzzled.

Fu Zhuo didn't know?Nan Ruo was surprised, it seemed that he bumped into her by mistake, and shook his head: "It's nothing, just tell His Highness."

Since the crown prince didn't tell others, it's inconvenient for him to speak for him.

Fu Zhuo raised his eyebrows: "Success."

Then he smiled and said: "If there is any inconvenience in the future, I will contact you for you. Don't worry, I will keep my mouth shut and I won't tell anyone who asks."

This is a way.

Nan Ruo nodded, but she always felt that something was wrong.

Sending off Fu Zhuo, the Spring Festival is fast approaching, and Nangong's family is busy. It is the first time for Nan Ruo to celebrate the Spring Festival here, and all kinds of customs are strange and fresh to him.

In the blink of an eye, it was New Year's Eve, and the sky began to snowflakes early in the morning, and it snowed heavily in the evening.

Nangong Yunlin took the lead in playing cards with the children, and the girls were led by the third aunt.

At the moment of zero o'clock, starting from the imperial palace, loud bells rang from wall to wall, resounding throughout the entire capital.

Nan Ruo went to the window and looked at the snowflakes falling under the light, suppressed all his thoughts and sorrows, raised his glass to the moon, and drank the wine in one gulp.

In ancient times, the moon shines on the people of this world.

A new year begins.
