Queen's Road in the Red House

When Xin Hongcheng lowered his head to think, he suddenly smelled an extremely fresh and pleasant fragrance of grass, like freshly cut grass.

He couldn't help turning his head to look out the window, it was still a bleak autumn day, where did the smell of green grass come from.

The Supreme Emperor saw him at a glance: "Cheng'er, why don't you solve the problem well, what are you doing here?"

Xin Hongcheng told the truth, and the Empress Dowager said, "It's the fragrance from the candles. Originally, the anthurium candles in the palace were filled with all kinds of incense chips, but the Empress Dowager thought it would conflict with the smell of the spices burned in the palace, so she asked the House of Internal Affairs to change it to the fragrance of green grass. , I like summer the most, and now that it’s autumn, it’s time for her to change to different kinds of fruit fragrances.”

Xin Hongcheng nodded: It's true that different people have different fates.They are both step-wives, look at the Supreme Emperor, who respects the Empress Dowager very much, and supports her personal hobbies in every possible way. If you want to build a glazed corridor, you can build it. If you want to change the lamps and candles of the House of Internal Affairs, you can change it. The Supreme Emperor is the first one. Follow behind boast.When he came to Empress Yang, he just liked food, so the emperor picked his nose and eyes.

It can be seen that the fate of this couple is really hard to say.

However, his cranky thinking was only for a moment, and then he quickly concentrated on answering the questions.

The Supreme Emperor even hangs a western pocket watch on his front with great interest, and watches the time himself, and from time to time, he will take a walk down the field and stay behind a certain prince for a while.

Xin Hongcheng has been a human being for two generations, and once again experienced the feeling of the head teacher standing behind his neck.

Qin Taifu, on the other hand, carefully looked at the finished proposals submitted by the four princes just now.From time to time, I still hold the booklet, catch up with the Supreme Emperor who is running around all over the ground, and show him the sentences in it.

Seeing this, Xin Hongcheng felt that his father had messed up the flower feast this time: the Supreme Emperor and Qin Taifu were like close friends, probably similar to himself and Fan Yunyi.

With such a relationship, his father wanted to kidnap the old fox who had been in power for decades by marrying a granddaughter of Taifu Qin. Resented back.

Therefore, Xin Hongcheng felt even more grateful to the emperor.His father is actually very smart and understands the emperor's will, so he was able to stand out from the remaining seven or eight brothers and ascend to the throne after the prince was abolished.The only few times he made the Emperor unhappy, it seemed that they were all trying to win something for himself.

--

"how?"

After all the princes finished answering the papers, they were cleared by the Supreme Emperor, leaving only Qin Taifu, and the two of them reviewed four freshly released examination questions together.

As soon as Qin Taifu opened his mouth, the Supreme Emperor said: "You are not allowed to speak those official words. Today I will listen to the truth." Qin Taifu opened and closed his mouth twice like a crucian carp out of water, and then he found it again. own thoughts.

"The eldest prince is straightforward, and the meaning of the whole article is superficial. He only cites the incidents of the Miao barbarians that day, and agrees that the imperial court immediately send troops to attack the alien race in northern Xinjiang." Qin Taifu paused: "At the same time, he also recommended virtuous people without avoiding relatives. The general is the general of the army."

The Supreme Emperor and Qin Taifu Junchen looked at each other, and at the same time saw the speechlessness in each other's eyes.

"The second prince's allusions are the best, and the quotations are meaningful. However, the words are divided into two ends. It makes sense to fight or not to fight. Selfishness is broken, and your views on the war are in line with your thoughts."

It wasn't that Grand Tutor Qin refused to comment on the third prince, but that he was stared too nervously by the Supreme Emperor, and suffered from asthma in the middle of the journey, and was sent to the side hall by the palace people to be seen by the imperial physician.

Qin Taifu read half of his pen and ink, and felt that it was a pity. The third prince saw that he was also a talented and knowledgeable person, but he was so weak.

The Supreme Emperor held Xin Hongcheng's answer sheet, and said in his mouth: "Sure enough, he is young and impatient. If his words are so careless, if it spreads out, I am afraid that the officials outside will be offended all over."

Qin Taifu smiled: "Young spirit is naturally sharp, not to mention that you are the only one who has seen the words of the Fourth Highness, so how can it spread?"

--

After Qin Taifu left the Ningshou Palace, before leaving the imperial city, he was dragged away by the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, He Lang.

He Lang is Taifu Qin's most proud student, and also one of the best.The two closed the door, and He Lang couldn't help asking: "I heard that the Supreme Emperor has tested several princes, and asked the teacher to give me some pointers."

Qin Taifu's own sons are not very up-to-date, they are all dull-headed scholars, but He Lang is the student who resembles him the most.

Seeing the straightforwardness of He Lang's question, Grand Tutor Qin also informed He Lang one by one, from when the princes entered and took their seats, to the final evaluation by the Supreme Emperor, he told He Lang exactly.

He Lang couldn't help getting up and walking around twice, and then his eyes lit up: "Teacher, His Highness Fourth is really smart."

Qin Taifu knew that he had figured out the key points, so he couldn't help nodding and smiling: "Yes. The Fourth Highness was taught by the emperor, and father and son are close. It's no surprise that he presented this sharp-edged official's policy to the emperor, but he actually accepted it. This was presented to the Supreme Emperor. It was a dangerous move."

If the Supreme Emperor really didn't like the fourth prince, and let his words out a little bit, this His Highness probably had offended the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty before he went to the court for business.

He Lang couldn't help but excitedly said: "It's also a good move. The Supreme Emperor is wise and wise, and the last thing he likes to be deceived by others. He must be happy to see the fourth prince being so sincere, sincere, and sincere. That's why I told him in the end. Teacher, don't reveal the words of His Highness the Fourth Highness."

Qin Taifu knew the Supreme Emperor better: "Young and aggressive, this Fourth Highness is more like the Supreme Emperor's youthful temperament than the Emperor."

He remembered decades ago, when the overlord, who had just entered the court in his teens, rolled up his sleeves and beat the servant of the household department at that time, and yelled in front of the former emperor and the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty: "Jeju is in trouble!" During the epidemic, the people are struggling to survive. But you advocate allocating money to the Yellow River waterways. Don’t think I don’t know your thoughts! It’s just that the construction of rivers is more conducive to political achievements, and your household department will also be able to point out a few rivers to write off accounts and claim credit! If this money is diverted to Jeju and used on the victims, it may not be able to save people, it is better to leave the mess to the local people, and let them live or die! Such a heartless person who does not understand the suffering of the people is also worthy of being an official!"

Qin Taifu narrowed his eyes, such a sharp and unwilling temperament, the Taishang Huang actually suffered a lot when he was young.It was only later that I realized that it is not necessary to say everything, only what is in the heart is called great.

Now I actually saw a similar appearance in Xin Hongcheng.

Such a young man is like a sword drawn out of its scabbard, and an arrow shining coldly on the string, as if the sky is wide and the earth is wide, allowing him to flex his muscles.

But the sword must be able to be unsheathed and put in the sheath after all, in order to last forever.

The Supreme Emperor once went through a detour and learned the truth after paying blood and tears. Now that he sees his grandson's deja vu temperament, how can he not pay more attention and guide him well?Didn't he already have the intention of protecting him just now?

Qin Taifu couldn't help but began to regret it a bit. In order not to get involved in the national dispute, he was the one who proposed to the Supreme Emperor that he didn't want his granddaughter to marry into the royal family.

But from now on... Taifu Qin touched his beard with heartache: Maybe he missed the position of a princess or even a queen.

When the emperor entered the Ningshou Palace, he happened to hear the Taishang Emperor knocking on the wine bowl and reciting poems, and he was reading: "Get on the horse and beat the madman, get off the horse and draft the military letter." This sentence.

The emperor couldn't help but feel happy: every time the old man Taishang Huang talked about being a teenager, drinking and reciting poems, it meant that he was in a good mood.

"Sit down." Sure enough, the Supreme Emperor saw him rushing, and joked a few words: "I really feel sorry for my son, look at the time, you are just going to court, and you came here in a hurry, can I eat them?"

The emperor smiled and said, "How come, it's their blessing that the father is willing to teach them. The son is only afraid that they will not do well in their homework and cause the father to worry."

The Supreme Emperor handed the freshly released Shilun to the Emperor for a look.

After reading the first two books, the emperor commented casually: "Yu'er thinks that things are always simpler, but it's still appropriate. It's not easy for civil servants and generals, and the frequent transfer of money and grain by the imperial court in recent years has also been thought of."

However, when he saw Xin Hongcheng, the emperor's eyes almost didn't come out, and he hurriedly said: "Father, Cheng'er, this child is still young, and he speaks freely."

Seeing that the emperor was so surprised, the last bit of doubt in the Taishang emperor's heart disappeared.

It seems that the emperor did not deliberately teach Xin Hongcheng to behave in front of him, but his own thoughts.

So the Supreme Emperor waved his hand and interrupted the emperor's explanation: "Okay, since you have handed them over to me, you can leave it alone. If you pay more attention to the affairs of the court, I will gradually let you go."

Hearing the words, the emperor felt mixed feelings, and wanted to explain to his son.However, his arms couldn't twist his thighs, and the Supreme Emperor drove him to deal with the affairs of state, so he had to walk away.

Daiyu read Xin Hongcheng's letter for half an hour.

At first Jia Min looked at her daughter's timid face with a joking expression, but as Daiyu's expression became more serious and careful, even she couldn't help sitting up straight, and her heart sank.

She could see that the Fourth Highness was a very thoughtful person, and would win over influence, and if she didn't want to be inferior, she wouldn't be dissatisfied with this marriage.

It wasn't until Daiyu saw the last page that her dignified expression suddenly turned into surprise, and then her whole face turned red like a cloud of steaming clouds.

Jia Min was scratching his head, wishing he could take the letter from his prospective son-in-law and review it in person.

Daiyu was stunned for a while, then raised her head, and seeing Jia Min's anxious expression, she couldn't help but crooked her eyebrows and said with a smile: "In front of mother, I was defenseless, and I forgot about mother."

Seeing that she was still talking and laughing, Jia Min was only half relieved, and asked directly, "How do you look fascinated?"

Daiyu flipped through the thick pages of sprinkled gold paper in her hand, and Jia Min could see that it was densely packed with small characters.And some of them were outlined with a vermilion pen.

"The Fourth Highness has written about all the empresses and empresses who are above the main position in the palace. Their family background, status, temperament, and children are all clearly marked, and they have specially marked out those who are at odds with Empress Yang."

Jia Min's expression was slightly stunned at first, and then he laughed from the bottom of his heart: "The Fourth Highness has a heart!"

Jia Min has been a bride before, and has seen many new daughters-in-law of officials and eunuchs.Most of them are wives who, after passing through the door, are cautious in their words and deeds, watch more and move less, and slowly find out what their husbands are doing.As for a husband, he basically only cares about the brilliance outside and ignores his wife's situation in the inner house. At the same time, he asks his wife to be filial to his superiors and to be kind to his subordinates. The concubine gave birth to children.

Now Xin Hongcheng has sorted out a list of the main seats in the palace in advance, it can be seen that he is considerate of Daiyu, lest she enter the palace with a blind eye.

If it's just a list, it's nothing more than being considerate. The most rare thing is to mark out all the people who are close and at odds with Queen Yang, which means being open and honest, and being one with Daiyu.

Such a letter is far better than any treasures and antiques he sent.This represents that, as the prince, he attaches great importance to and loves his future wife.

Jia Min couldn't help but said two more "yes" words: "Mother must keep this letter for you until you keep it firmly in your heart."

Daiyu blushed suddenly, and said politely, "Mother, can I take the last page? I will definitely keep it carefully."

Jia Min thought of Daiyu's face flushed like blood when she saw the last page just now, she wanted to make a joke but held back, pretending she didn't know: "Forget it, then you can keep this letter. You have practiced your hands and know how to store things - when you live in the palace in the future, you must collect all your things properly, otherwise a piece of paper and a handkerchief may be a catastrophe. Let's start from this letter today Bar."

She always wanted to protect her daughter and insulate her from the wind and rain.But this is impossible, but in two years, at most three years, Daiyu will step into the center of a dynasty's storm.

No one can completely shield her from the wind and rain, only she can learn to stand firm in the wind and rain.

Daiyu carefully put away the letter, went back to her room, said she wanted to rest for a while, and then hid in the curtain.

After the Mid-Autumn Festival, she has already changed into a bed curtain of light blue brocade embroidery and thick satin, and the tentacles are thick and warm.

She didn't rush to put the letter away, but still held it in her hand.

With no one around like this, she was able to recall the last page of the letter in complete relaxation.

In the outer room, Zhou Weiwei was watching the fire in person, boiling rock sugar pear water with a small choko, and the sweet and hot aroma slowly spread into the tent.

Daiyu could imagine, in the little copper Chozi, there was pear water glowing with honey color and bubbling.

And in her heart, at this moment, it was like a pot of pear water.

--

When Xin Hongcheng returned to Wende Palace, the first thing he did was to grab Fan Yunyi: "I asked you to send the letter to Rongguo Mansion for me this morning, has it been delivered yet?"

Fan Yunyi nodded: "Don't worry."

Xin Hongcheng took out a pen and began to pull the hairs on it one by one: "She will like it, she won't like it, she will like it..."

Fan Yunyi snatched the Langhao pen from him: "This is mine, take your own." Then he asked: "Didn't you say you want to write about the ladies in the palace? How could Miss Lin not like it?"

Daiyu's situation is special, and she has to go to the palace to see the imperial physician every two months.Originally, it was fine for her to live in Fengyi Palace, but now that she is going to be the fourth concubine, if she enters the palace again, there will be people from all sides rushing forward, wanting to weigh the weight of the future fourth concubine .

As the order of the imperial physician, Physician Wu was born to be stationed in the palace on a daily basis to prevent the emperor from calling.So you can't go to Rongguo Mansion to see a doctor for Daiyu, otherwise Xin Hongcheng really wants to save Daiyu from entering the palace every two months, so as to avoid being stared at and plotted against.

That's why he handed her the detailed situation in the palace early, trying to know himself and the enemy and win every battle.

Xin Hongcheng smiled and said, "Oh, besides the ladies in the palace, I also wrote a love letter and sent it out together."

Fan Yunyi almost choked on his own saliva: "Love letter?" Then he suddenly asked humbly: "How do you write it, can you teach me?"

Xin Hongcheng stared at him immediately: "Which girl do you like?"

Fan Yunyi's mouth was shut tighter than a clam shell. Xin Hongcheng knew his temper, and he couldn't ask what he didn't want to say.

"Love letters should be viewed from the point of view of dialectical materialism, and specific issues should be analyzed in detail. Don't copy mine." Xin Hongcheng also wanted to share his love letters, so he said with a smile: "Sister Lin is a careful and sensitive person. People, so my love letter does not take any ambiguous route at all, such as vague words such as the moonlight is so beautiful tonight, I don’t take it.”

"If you let her think about it, and say good things that can't be hidden, she will figure out the meaning of bad things."

In the letter to Daiyu, Xin Hongcheng adopted an absolute straight-ball style of play.

--

Daiyu was in the tent, before her eyes appeared a chic running script: "Miss Lin, although the marriage between you and me was bestowed by the emperor's grandfather, I want you to know that it is my heartfelt desire to marry you." What I asked for. Now that I have got my wish, I will love and respect you for the rest of my life, and I will never bear you if I share weal and woe.”

Daiyu couldn't help but gently covered her face with a white jade-like hand.

When she saw such straightforward words for the first time, she only felt her face flushed, and she could even hear the sound of blood gurgling in her ears clearly.

Looking back now, I still feel my heart beating like a drum.

Just a few days ago, she was still sentimental about the death of her parents, not even a sibling, the world is as vast as a rootless duckweed, and the future life is even more illusory and gloomy.

But now, not only did she have her mother by her side again, but someone even told her clearly that she would respect her, love her, and walk hand in hand with her forever, and that this person was also her future husband.

It's like walking alone, after walking extremely tired, suddenly stretch out a pair of hands to support, it makes people feel infinite relief and soreness from the bottom of my heart.

Daiyu recalled that behind the door of Liuli Pavilion, a firm voice came to her ears: "Don't worry."

The tone of the letter suddenly changed to relaxed and familiar again, as if the two were talking and laughing face to face: "But Miss Lin, although you and I are married, I still don't know if you are willing to marry me. If you are willing, I am very happy." Huanxi, if you don’t want to, I understand. After all, when we met for the first time, I pretended to be a little eunuch and asked my father to catch me. I was also beaten in front of you, making you look embarrassed. Afterwards, I sent the cat The dog even smashed your house in Fengyi Palace. I don’t know why, I can cover everything in front of others, but I always panic and make mistakes in front of you.”

Thinking of what happened two or three months ago, Daiyu couldn't help but smile, yes, she was really surprised at that time, how could there be such an absurd prince in the world.

A page of letter paper was almost full, so Xin Hongcheng put away Xuxu's writing: "I still have a lot to say to you, but the letters are limited, and I will tell you slowly in the future. Wanwang take care of yourself, don't Sorrowful and thoughtful, I have everything.”

The final payment was made by Xin Hongcheng.

It is also embarrassing to say that the marriage of the two has passed the emperor's mouth, and it is a certainty, and Daiyu unexpectedly knows Xin Hongcheng's name.

Daiyu gently read the name twice, and in the gentle and dark tent, she felt that the noisy mood finally calmed down slowly, and finally settled into a kind of stability and softness.

If he promised her so much and really treated her like this, then marrying into the palace as a concubine might not be as terrible as he had imagined.

Hard work is inevitable, but she is the daughter of the Lin family, so she will do well.

--

Xin Hongcheng enthusiastically taught his friends how to write love letters. Even if Fan Yunyi didn't hear the full text, but only heard a few words here and there, his teeth ached for him.

"You're not afraid of frightening Miss Lin."

Xin Hongcheng nodded: "I probably wanted to scare her, and I didn't expect her to believe me now. It's just that I think it's better not to hide it when talking to smart people. Although I'm not stupid, I'm not a careful person." If you want to hide or be deep, you can't do it, so it's better to talk about it openly."

Hearing what he said, Fan Yunyi immediately turned serious: "You mean that the Supreme Emperor is testing you today, and you have something to say?"

Xin Hongcheng nodded, and reviewed what happened today with him.

Remembering his father's instructions to be cautious in words and deeds, restrained and submissive, he could only spread his hands: "Time is too tight, it's too late to hurry up and write down your thoughts, how can I make another fake one."

If he knew how the Eldest Princess asked Daiyu questions like arrows, Xin Hongcheng would probably be more touched. The Supreme Emperor and the Eldest Princess are indeed brothers and sisters. level.

Xin Hongcheng tidied up his desk: There is another advantage of the Supreme Emperor's exam. In order to leave enough time for the old man to torture his grandchildren, there is no class arrangement in the morning.

Now that the exam is over, he can still go back to catch up on getting back to sleep. Just now, he was really useless.
