As Li Wanhua's eyes fell on the next person, she clearly felt that Wang Wenbing was secretly relieved.She looked back at him with interest, only to find that he became nervous again.

Li Wanhua was secretly amused, but she didn't stop in her steps, her gaze had already landed on a young man with a jade-like face and red lips and white teeth.There was a frown between his brows, he seemed to have the legacy of Xizi holding his heart, if he hadn't been verified for his integrity, Li Wanhua would have suspected that he was a woman in disguise.

"Helan Zhanyu." Li Wanhua whispered the boy's name softly.The young man named Helan Zhanyu blushed slightly, and his drooping long eyelashes fluttered slightly, like a pair of beautiful butterfly wings.

This Helan Zhanyu is the son of a master named Helan Yunzhi in the Farmland Department.Compared with the previous Zhang Juxian, Wang Wenbing and others, Helan Zhanyu's background is really quite different.It's just that the imperial decree of the current empress clearly stated that the choice of a husband is based on harmony, not family status, so that Helan Zhanyu is eligible to be selected.And in his mind, even if he is a child from a small family like him, he is only studying with the crown prince even if he has the qualifications for the palace selection.

It's just that things in the world are often unexpected. Helan Zhanyu thought that he was born in a humble background and would never be favored by the empress, but he didn't know that the empress standing in front of him was a master who didn't follow the routine.

"The Zhang family, the Wang family, and the Yuan family all wanted their blood to enter the royal family, and they fought openly and secretly for countless times. If any of their families marry me, they will definitely use their status as relatives to expand their power in the court. , if this is the case, the current balance of the court is bound to be disrupted. Hmph, you all rely on yourselves to be smart, but it is a pity that I am not as good as you wish!" Li Wanhua sneered secretly in her heart: "I have not yet reached the point where I need to rely on my relatives."

The golden sword in her hand was slowly passed to Helan Zhanyu, and everyone in the hall was stunned by the empress' move.No one would have thought that the empress would choose a son of the head book as her husband, even Helan Zhanyu herself couldn't believe her eyes.

When she was young, the servant in front of the palace was the first to come back to her senses, and reminded in a low voice: "Helan Zhanyu, thank you!", that Helan Zhanyu suddenly came back to his senses, hurriedly pulled up his clothes and bowed down, took the golden sword with both hands, and shouted long live three times.

The rest of the people knew that they had no hope of being selected. Although some families were happy and some were lonely, they had no choice but to kowtow and thank them according to the rules.

What happened to Zhang Juxian has completely made the Empress Dowager Zhang lose interest in choosing the husband of the Empress this time.Therefore, no matter who Li Wanhua chooses to be the imperial concubine, it is no longer important to Empress Dowager Zhang.

Li Wanhua handed over the imperial husband's golden sword, but she felt her heart was cold. She returned to the dragon chair and sat down expressionlessly, and forced herself to perform the duties she had to perform: "The Privy Council is drafting an order, He Lanzhan The jade character is outstanding, the appearance is outstanding, and he can be the husband of the emperor. He was awarded the title of prince and received double salaries. He Lanyun was awarded the title of Cheng'en Gong, and he went to his original position as the head of the farmland department. Office. The rest shall be followed according to the regulations, and we shall draw up the decree to see."

In this way, the great event of the empress choosing her husband came to an end amidst the apparent calm.Immediately afterwards, they entered into the big wedding links such as accepting collections and asking for a date.

It's just that the female emperor's recruitment of the emperor's husband is different from an ordinary marriage after all. The female emperor cannot surrender, and can only enter the royal life through the way of Helan Zhanyu's marriage.Therefore, the red tape in this big wedding has to be adjusted and changed according to the actual situation, and it really took a lot of effort for the relevant departments in charge of the big wedding.

Different from the joyous atmosphere in the court, Fengming Palace is still silent, what's more, all the maids and servants in the main hall of Fengming Palace are several times more careful than before, just because the Empress His expression was always a little uneasy.

Such a strange atmosphere in the palace also alarmed Chu Qingxi and others who were in the side hall of Fengming Palace.On this day, while watching Zhu Wen doing needlework, Bihen said subconsciously: "The emperor hasn't come for a while, and the deer and crane in the main hall are also mysterious, and I don't know what happened. thing."

While threading needles, Zhu Wen replied: "I saw it early in the morning. When I met Lu'er that day, I even asked her, but she kept it secret and refused to tell."

Bihen said: "This is also strange. In the past, the emperor would run towards our side hall from time to time, but now he watched her sitting on the dragon chariot up and down every day, but he didn't even say hello. Could it be that we Offended her unintentionally?"

Zhu Wen said with a smile: "How could we offend her? Every time she comes, we don't always greet her with tea and water. Unless..." She carefully looked at Chu Qingxi who was crouching on the imperial concubine's bed With one glance, he pouted quietly.

Bihen poked his head and looked at it, and immediately understood it tacitly: "Oh, if it's for the master inside, it's really not easy for the empress."

The two of them were muttering, but they heard Chu Qingxi's voice resounding in the room: "You two are muttering, don't think I can't hear you." The two of them looked at each other and stuck out their tongues, only seeing Chu Qingxi's body Xingshan walked up to them: "Yingyue is at the ninth level, so naturally she has a lot of political affairs to attend to. Is it possible that you can still be like the two of you who have nothing to do when you are full every day, just chewing on your wife's tongue behind your back."

Zhu Wen and Bihen giggled, but they didn't refute, and heard Chu Qingxi say: "Now we've been bothering him for a few days, now that the injury has recovered, we should go to Antai. You two take advantage of these few days After a few days to pack up, I will meet Yingyue after a few days, and I will bid farewell to her."

Zhu Wen and Bi Hen responded in unison, and went to clean up without mentioning it.Chu Qingxi walked alone in the courtyard, his thoughts drifted away uncontrollably.After a few months, I wonder how Antai is doing now?In the past, my old injuries relapsed and I was defeated in battle. An Taigan traded his own safety in exchange for the safety and freedom of the three of them. With this kindness and righteousness, how can people easily forget her?

Now her injuries have healed, and her martial arts has recovered seventy-eight percent, but Antai doesn't know where she is.According to Chu Qingxi's analysis, Xu Huanzhi won Zhao Ning and would definitely send him to the capital to claim credit.And according to the normal footsteps, he must have already arrived in the capital by now, and he didn't know how the Emperor Shenzong Zhao Ren would deal with Zhao Ning. Thinking of this, Chu Qingxi couldn't help but feel his heart flutter.

In the past, Li Wanhua visited her in the side hall from time to time, and she would chat about some Song and Liao affairs. At that time, she told herself that she had ordered Xixia's spies to keep an eye on Zhao Ning's whereabouts. The news, but now Li Wanhua seems to be avoiding herself intentionally, and because of Li Wanhua's avoidance, the news about Zhao Ning naturally does not reach Chu Qingxi's ears.

Thinking of this, Chu Qingxi couldn't help but let out a long sigh, she guessed that Li Wanhua didn't come to the side hall of Fengming Palace in recent days, it must be because she hurt her self-esteem by rejecting her that day.Although Chu Qingxi felt that her words that day were quite tactful, she also knew that Li Wanhua was the king of a country, so she naturally had a different self-esteem and sensitivity than ordinary people.

But in this matter, besides being able to tactfully refuse, what else can I do?My own heart is so big, if I tolerate Zhao Ning, I can't tolerate others anymore, Chu Qingxi smiled self-deprecatingly, and secretly said: "Those people who are half-hearted towards Qin Muchu really have good skills. I don't know how they can love several people at the same time, if so, I don't have to be so troubled."

She was lost in thought, when she suddenly heard Bihen's voice arguing loudly, she couldn't help but secretly frowned, and then looked towards the door.At some point, Bihen was standing inside the gate of the side hall of Fengming Palace, confronting a eunuch in charge.

I just heard the waiter pointing at Bihen with a male and female voice indistinguishable, and said: "You little girl, why are you so blind to see? Don't you see that I am busy all day long?" If you want this or that, do you really think you are some kind of empress?"

Bihen said angrily: "Sister Li said, if you need anything in this room, just ask you. Sister Li has said so, why don't you give it?"

The servant laughed sharply: "Oh, return Sister Li, the emperor is a man of gold, how can it be your turn to call her sister, you don't take a piss to take care of yourself, are you so generous?" ?”

Since ancient times, eunuchs have been physically persecuted since they were young, and they lived in the deep palace for a long time. They were exposed to a life of intrigue and intrigue. Life is a snobbery.

This servant who had a big quarrel with Bihen is a typical example. He is just the son of Laifu, the eunuch in charge of Fengming Palace. His real name is Jia Sanbao. Later, relying on her cleverness, she flattered Laifu from the side hall of Fengming Palace.

It can be considered that his boy's life is good. Although this Laifu is an eunuch, the idea of ​​inheriting the family is deeply rooted in his bones. Therefore, Jia Sanbao recognized him as his godfather, and he also regarded him as his own son. Excited, she took the opportunity to find him a stewardship position in the side hall of Fengming Palace, so as to avoid the smoky pain in the Royal Tea House.

And when Jia Sanbao arrived at Fengming Palace from the Royal Teahouse, he immediately felt like flying to the branches to become a phoenix, and relying on his godfather Lai Fu'er, most of the maidservants and eunuchs in Fengming Palace also I have to give him three points.This made him even more self-inflated, except for his godfather Lai Fuer and the female emperor's close servants in the main hall of Fengming Palace, he actually didn't pay attention to anyone else.He believed that with his skill of perceiving words and expressions, he would definitely be able to make a name for himself in Fengming Palace.

When Chu Qingxi and others had just moved into the side hall of Fengming Palace, he saw that the Empress was very interested in her, so he immediately kept his mind on it, and was extra respectful and considerate to Chu Qingxi, Zhu Wen, and Bihen. Especially for Zhu Wen and Bi Hen, they flattered and flattered them from time to time.That Bihen was innocent and straightforward, and even regarded him as a good friend, and praised him in front of Chu Qingxi from time to time.

But now, seeing that the side hall of Fengming Palace has gradually become a place that the empress can't avoid, he gradually becomes impatient with Bihen, Zhuwen and others.How many women who have been thrown into the cold palace since ancient times can stand up?What's more, this person surnamed Chu is not an empress!Now that the emperor chooses a husband, he only hides it from them. It can be seen that in the emperor's heart, he is not willing to let them participate in his wedding.

That being the case, why would I bother to bow down to them and greet them with a smile. There is only one end for palace servants who fall out of favor, and that is to fend for themselves and seek happiness for themselves.So today, Bihen sent him to ask for a few tied ropes, which led to his robbing.

Bihen was thrown backward by his words, and couldn't help saying loudly: "What did you say, you have the courage to say it again!", she stared wide-eyed, clenched her fists, if this little eunuch dared to speak rudely She kept beating him until he couldn't even recognize his own mother.

Jia Sanbao sneered and said: "I don't dare, Bihen, not to mention that you are also a maid, even if your master comes here today, our family will also say these few words, and you are not a concubine. ", he suddenly smiled evilly: "I said Bihen, why don't you beg me, as soon as our family is happy, maybe I will agree to you."

Suddenly, Bihen smiled sweetly, and said softly: "Jia Sanbao, in this Fengming Palace, can you be the master?"

Jia Sanbao was dazzled by her sudden smile, couldn't help puffing out his chest, and said loudly: "That's natural, as long as you make our family happy, we can get you whatever you want."

Before he finished speaking, he heard a cold female voice behind him: "Grandpa Jia is really capable, I don't know when it will be your turn to make decisions in Fengming Palace?"
