The Prince of Rebirth

The banquet spread out, palace maids entered one after another, and an orderly array of dishes and drinks were served on the table in front of me.The silver carved tableware is exquisite, meticulous, practical and safe, and it is perfect for guest banquets. Xia Jin picked out a few dishes with excellent appearance and tasted two chopsticks. The taste is indeed better than that eaten outside the palace. I think Thinking that there should be no chance to eat again in the future, I ate a few more chopsticks until the next dish was served.

"Thinking that the receptionists here are all female relatives, the dishes are served exquisitely and meticulously. I think the presentation looks good, but I wonder if it suits your taste?"

"The ones in the imperial concubine's palace are naturally not bad, but the dishes are as delicate as paintings, so we don't have the heart to use chopsticks."

It was Princess Ruoyi who was talking, and because she was of the same generation as the emperor, she was considered a very important figure in this palace. Xia Jin knew this princess well, so she couldn't make any big mistakes. Some right and wrong happened among ordinary people.

"The eldest princess was joking, the things here are slightly worse than those in your house, as long as you don't dislike my cook's skills and refuse to use your chopsticks."

The identities of the two people chatted quite speculatively, and the married women occasionally added a sentence or two to add to the fun, while the maidservant next to her looked at her nose, nose, nose, and heart, and just tried to hold her posture so that no one would pick the wrong place. Today, it is said that it is for celebration Concubine Hui held a banquet for her birthday, but everyone who understands it knows that it is an opportunity to choose a concubine for His Royal Highness the Second Prince.

The second prince is now the oldest among all the princes, and his early fourteenth is the age for getting married.Now Concubine Hui is extremely favored, and the second prince occupies a long word. If there is no accident, the crown prince will be in the past few years.Among the ladies who have not left the cabinet in the nobleman's house in Jingzhong, if they are of the same age, most of them stop talking with others, but it is just because of the seats in the main room and two side rooms next to the prince.

Xia Jin took a sneak peek at the noble ladies present while picking up vegetables. They were all about the age of thirteen or fourteen years old. Because of their young age, the makeup on the face was not heavy, and only the delicate and youthful faces were revealed. The dripping face, well-behaved and shy brows, looking around like this made Xia Jin swallow a few mouthfuls of saliva.

Hey, being the emperor's son is really a blessing. Even if you don't become the emperor's son, it's better for Xia Jin to retain her status as the son of the former Marquis Mansion. After all, there are still a few well-matched ladies who can choose, which is better than dying now. Bao Na still has the mind to think about begging for a daughter-in-law.

"Are you hungry?"

Xia Jin was peeking vigorously. Suddenly, a thief's voice came from the side. Xia Jin turned her head to look at the princess with black lines all over her head, but she saw that the latter was picking up the dishes on the plate very seriously, just like the speaker.

"What's wrong with me just staring at it? Everyone has a love for beauty. The princess made me wear this woman's clothes and thought I was not a man?"

"You don't even have hair to be a man, and you don't learn well at a young age. You deserve it because you can't get a wife."

Xia Jin: ...

He can't ask who killed his wife, if he still has the backing of the Hou Mansion now, he doesn't need to worry about these bastards!

"Don't stare at me here, this should be the main event after eating for a while, you have to cheer up and don't forget the purpose of coming here, otherwise I won't care about Hang'er rolling around on the ground."

You don't care if your own son rolls around, do you still want him to take care of it!

Xia Jin wanted to roll her eyes at the princess, but by chance, she caught sight of the second prince looking this way. Xia Jin's back stiffened, and finally she lowered her head and stopped swaying left and right to avoid seeing something she shouldn't see thing.

Concubine Hui saw that her son was absent-minded tonight, and she often looked at Princess Dingyuan, so she asked in puzzlement:

"You seem to like this one today? Why do you look a little bit out of spirit?"

"Last night, it was a bit late to study the book, so it's good to have a good night's sleep."

"I see you always look towards the princess, but did you see the little girl next to the princess?"

The second prince pondered for a while, but finally asked.

"I just feel that the person looks familiar. I don't know what is the relationship with the princess?"

"Prince Dingyuan has only two sons under his knees. The princess is in poor health but wants to have a daughter. She can't think about it and finally picks up a little girl from her mother's house--but she looks good. These princesses and ladies are all Comparing it, it's reasonable for you to see her, but... her identity is slightly inappropriate."

Concubine Hui didn't say anything to death, but those who were familiar with her temperament knew that she had already expressed her position.The imperial concubine never ends a sentence, because when she shows her bias, the listener should know that she can't be disobedient.

"My child can tell the difference between the important and the important, but I just look at it more because I feel a little familiar."

The imperial concubine nodded in satisfaction, then turned her head to give a few words to the eunuch at the side, and then the sharp chanting sounded again, and after everyone had focused their attention, Hui Guifei suggested that everyone play some games.Apart from the archery that had been discussed early in the morning, it was still necessary to give other noble girls who didn't know how to do it a chance to perform, so they used the most well-behaved and atmosphere-boosting drumming to pass flowers.

Xia Jin and the princess were eating food and watching the fun, so they didn't have the slightest worry that it would fall on themselves.Just kidding, this is a talent show session used to choose a wife for the son, Xia Jin, a counterfeit, has never been able to get into the eyes of the imperial concubine and empress from the very beginning, so it would be tricky if it spread to him.

After a few rounds, those with better family backgrounds basically got their turn. Those who were not drawn also knew that they had missed the chance to climb high branches, and when they were secretly rubbing their handkerchiefs with regret, the fun officially began.

"These daughters are all really capable. I didn't realize it before, but now I see so many young faces and realize that I'm old."

Concubine Hui made a mockery of herself, but the wives followed suit with compliments, and didn't mention the archery competition until the atmosphere was almost over.

"Princess Zhanxi has lived in Beijing for a while, so you must have known each other. The customs in Ximan are different from ours, and the daughters have to learn good kung fu. I just heard that the daughter of a general in the court is also good at kung fu." This way, no, this is just a chance to compete, so that we can see a different style from this bookish spirit in Beijing."

When Concubine Hui was speaking, the eunuch had already brought a bow, she couldn't bear the curiosity and leaned over to have a look, but it was a black iron bow with a cold light.

"This black iron bow belongs to my ancestors. It's a pity that it can only be put aside for Yang Chen to watch when it is passed down to me. Now it happens to be given to someone who is proficient in this way. It can be regarded as finding a good home for this fine bow. "

After the Xuantie bow was brought up, Xia Jin only glanced at it and then moved it away, not because she didn't like it, but because she thought that seeing too many things that weren't hers would only make her sad.

So when everyone was concentrating on the bow, Xia Jin was secretly looking at Princess Zhanxi. Since the banquet started, she sat silently while eating and drinking, and did not make a bad face when she spoke to others, just like the people around her. It doesn't exist, and the ladies sitting beside her probably don't know how to get close to her, so they just look at her awkwardly from time to time while talking and laughing with others.

She is a rare beauty.

The profile of people in Ximan is deeper than that of people in Central Plains, so it is very easy to find beauties. Xia Jin glanced at Princess Zhanxi twice, and then twice, until the other party met his eyes and looked friendly at Xia Jin. smile.

Full-eye-peach-flower-open-

I felt my little heart was lightly tapped by this smile, and Xia Jin felt as if she was in a blossoming peach forest, and the whole world turned pink...

goddess! ! ! ! !

This is the real goddess! ! ! !

Comrade Xia Jin wavered, his face was so stupid that it almost lacked a hole.

"Did you see the little girl?"

There was a bit of teasing in Wang Hao's tone, Xia Jin smiled back at the goddess while rolling her eyes at Wang Hao, and finally her face cramped.

"It just pierced your little thoughts, why are you so excited?"

The two princesses put their arms on Xia Jin's shoulders nicely, and said in a ruffian way,

"The young man has a good eye. He fell in love with the prettiest one when he came here. He is ambitious. If there is a chance to win Ximan in the future, it would be nice to give this little girl to you."

Xia Jin rubbed his cramp face with a black line and said:

"Thank you, the little girl won't hate me when the time comes."

"You don't want it? If you don't want it, I'll leave it to Hang'er."

"Who said I don't want it!"

Xia Jin frowned, you bastard, the people you've been looking for in two lifetimes have been snatched away, so can't you get rid of these unsightly things?

"Tsk tsk tsk, take it easy, bring the black iron bow first, and then talk."

After speaking, the two stopped talking, and only concentrated on waiting for Concubine Hui to speak.

"Anyone who is interested in trying it, just come up. Let's treat it as a family feast today. It's better to be more casual."

After saying that, several people present who had practiced their hands were eager to try, not all because of the big bow that obviously couldn't be drawn, but because of the many opportunities to show their faces.

"You go up in a while and just show your true skills. If you let me see that you put water out of love, be careful of your claws!"

The concubine secretly glanced at the black iron bow while whispering to Xia Jin. Xia Jin dared to bet that the concubine would definitely turn dark after getting the bow back. This look would definitely turn dark.

**

Northwest Camp.

"My lord, there's news from the middle of the river that the preparations are ready, and the food and grass have been stockpiled for more than three years. Please show me your lord."

Standing in front of the military map, Lin Fangmiao stared at the Ximan area for a long time, with a hint of struggle in his eyes, paused for a while, and finally sighed:

"Prepare to arrange manpower to welcome Wangfei and Hang'er back."

"Yes!"

After the man went down, Lin Fangmiao brought in the bundled Lin Ge from outside the tent. The frontier was bitterly cold, and even an adult couldn't bear it if he was tied up and exposed to the cold outside. Lin Ge was not as strong as the weak crown. , after such tossing, his face was already pale and pale.

"You know what's wrong?"

Lin Ge didn't even bother to look at Lin Fangmiao, and just spat aside.

"I'm your father after all. How could you have such a vicious heart to send someone to Beijing to reveal our military secrets?"

"Hmph, traitor, my mother is the daughter of a famous family, and she was born to marry an unfaithful and unrighteous person like you. She was tortured to death by you and that bitch within two years of her pitiful marriage. You still have the face to say that you are my daughter." Father!"

Lin Fangmiao looked at his own son and sighed. Although he knew it was useless, he patiently explained again.

"The matter between me and your mother is definitely not as bad as you think. You only hear these nonsense words from other people and believe them to be true. How many times do I need to explain them to understand!"

"clear?"

Lin Ge seemed to have heard a huge joke, looked at Lin Fangmiao in disbelief and said,

"My mother died of dystocia, and Lin Hang and I are only a few months apart in age. What do you think I should understand? I understand that you had sex with that bitch while you were still in mourning, and that you allowed others to oppress your wife and son to take my place. Aren't these enough!"

Lin Fangmiao took a deep look at Lin Ge and didn't say anything, just turned around and walked out of the tent without looking back.
