Didn't Love You Enough

In the blink of an eye, it was the Spring Festival of the eighth year of Yuntai, and after Lin Jiabao was promoted to side lord, Xuanyuan Hancheng often took him to attend various banquets and celebrations held by the palace.

Lin Jiabao would obediently accompany the prince every time. His speech and behavior were very decent, which made people feel very comfortable.Sometimes when the empress summoned the female family members of the court, she would also call Shang Jiabao to accompany her.Over time, the harem concubines and courtiers all got to know this Lin Fangjun who was loved by His Royal Highness and the Empress.

In March of the eighth year of Yuntai, officials of the fifth rank and above from all over the country sent their daughters to Beijing, and the eight-year draft of Yuntai began.After screening by family background, appearance, etc., after passing the primary selection, more than [-] people were left to live in the Chuxiu Palace. They will live here for a period of time to learn palace rules, show their talents, and be observed. After completing their conduct, they can finally decide whether to stay or not.

Both Wen Wenqian and Zhang Chunwei passed the primary election smoothly. Zhang Chunwei has been treated by Imperial Physician Qian for several months. Apart from being a little thinner, she looks no doubt like ordinary people on the surface.

Zhang Chunwei vaguely felt that her time was running out, and she also knew the agreement between His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and her parents.There is a belief supporting her, she knows that her parents are for her.Zhang Chunwei thought that she must fulfill her parents' wishes, so that she could leave without regret...

Yao Yulan was not able to participate in the draft this time, since Xuanyuan Hancheng didn't want her to enter the palace, naturally he wouldn't give her any chance.A few days before the draft, Yao Yulan suddenly developed a rash on her body.The red rashes on his face were densely packed, which was frightening to see.Yao Yulan angrily cursed that someone was trying to kill her, but Mrs. Yao couldn't find any clues after searching for a long time.The Yao family had no choice but to complain about their daughter's illness. The Yao family was looking forward to the draft, and Yao Yulan was very unwilling to give up the draft.

When the queen heard the news that Yao Yulan was unable to participate in the draft, she sighed and said, "It's a pity..."

In a corner of the imperial garden, the beautiful girls visited the beautiful scenery in the imperial garden.Today, the empress invited us to enjoy the imperial garden, and all the beautiful women worked hard to show their best side in front of the empress.

The queen looked at that among the thirty, the most outstanding ones were undoubtedly Wen Wenqian and Zhang Chunwei.In addition, there are two Shuang'er among the [-]. Presumably, they were sent to the palace because they heard that His Highness the Crown Prince likes Shuang'er.The queen saw that both of them were born as the concubine sons of everyone, and they were not as cute as Jiabao, so they were destined to return without success.

On the other side of the imperial garden, Xuanyuan Hancheng and his younger brother were in the gazebo looking towards the beautiful girls in the distance. The gazebo was on a relatively high terrain, so they could see it very clearly.

"Brother Prince, let's go back, I'm sorry." Xuanyuan Hanqi said shyly when he saw so many young and beautiful girls.

"Second Emperor, you are not young anymore, and it's time to marry a regular wife. The queen mother is looking for you... What do you like?" Xuanyuan Hancheng asked his younger brother.

"I... I... As long as the queen mother likes it, it must be a good choice." Xuanyuan Hanqi patted his own head and said naively.

"That's your wife, of course you have to like it." Xuanyuan Hancheng pointed to Wen Wenqian who was answering in the distance, "Look at that lady in the lake green dress, this is Wen Wenqian, the daughter of Uncle Jing, She is knowledgeable, talented, and good looking. The queen mother and I both like her to be your concubine."

Xuanyuan Hanqi looked in the direction pointed by the prince, and saw that Miss Wen's temperament was elegant as if she had stepped down from a picture of a lady. The queen mother's idea..."

Xuanyuan Hancheng saw it in his eyes and knew it in his heart.Afterwards, Xuanyuan Hancheng told the queen that his younger brother was interested in Wen Wenqian. After hearing this, the queen thought about it, but was still a little hesitant, "This Wen Wenqian was chosen for you to be the crown princess..."

"A gentleman doesn't take what others like. Since my younger brother has taken a fancy to him, the older brother will naturally fulfill him." Xuanyuan Hancheng said.

"It's hard for you to think of your brother everywhere." The queen praised the prince. "Okay, since your younger brother likes it and the two are very suitable, I will tell your father. What about you, Prince? Do you have a favorite?"

"Zhang Shilang's daughter-in-law, my minister wants to accept her as a side concubine." Xuanyuan Hancheng said to the queen.

"Zhang Chunwei is pretty good, and her body looks much better." The queen also agreed.

Xuanyuan Hancheng said to the queen: "My son will definitely let you hold the grandson of the emperor next year..."

The queen laughed when she heard this, "The queen mother is waiting for the good news from the prince."

In the end, both Zhang Chunwei and Wen Wenqian were left with cards.After Wen Wenqian returned home, Mrs. Jing Xibo quickly asked: "How are you doing in the palace? Does the Empress often talk to you? Have you ever met His Highness the Crown Prince?"

"No, the empress asked several beautiful women to meet with her. But the mothers and eunuchs in the palace took extra care of me..." Wen Wenqian replied.

"It is rumored that His Highness the Crown Prince will remarry the Crown Princess this time. Since you have been given a brand name, then..." Mrs. Xibohou thought that her daughter is the best candidate for the Crown Princess regardless of her family background...

"Mother, let's wait for the order to find out." Wen Wenqian knew that her family had great expectations for this draft, but she didn't feel that the Empress Empress was special to her.

One day later, the imperial decree was issued, and the daughter-in-law of the Ministry of Rites pointed out that she would be the prince's side concubine, and the time was set for next month.And Jing Xibo's daughter-in-law pointed out that she would be married to the second prince as the concubine, and the wedding will be held in February of the next year.

Zhang Shilang's family was not surprised when they received the imperial decree. After receiving the decree to thank them, Zhang Shilang and his wife finally breathed a sigh of relief.

After receiving the imperial decree, Jing Xibo's family still couldn't recover, how could they suddenly become the second concubine.But after regaining consciousness, the Wen family was still very happy, and being a prince and concubine was also a great grace.

In April, Zhang Chunwei supported her sick body and entered the palace normally. She was bedridden and comatose that night.Xuanyuan Hancheng blocked the news, but said to the public that Concubine Zhang was a little tired and sick the day she entered the palace. The queen was quite critical of this, and felt that Zhang Chunwei was too weak.She never thought that this side concubine Zhang had been ill for a long time but did not get better, and then became more and more ill, and finally passed away one morning in late April.The news of Zhang Chunwei's death surprised everyone inside and outside the harem. She was a pretty good girl during the draft, but she died of a serious illness after marrying His Highness the Crown Prince.All of a sudden, the government and the public looked sideways, and the previous rumors about His Royal Highness Tiansha spread again.

The queen was furious in the Yongshou Palace, "How did the imperial doctor heal, and why did he die?" The queen was very angry, and she said that Zhang Chunwei was weak, but the prince wanted to marry, and now the saying that the prince's life is hard will come back again up.

"Mother, please calm down. Maybe it's because I killed too much in the past, and I beat Concubine Zhang." Xuanyuan Hancheng said weakly while comforting the queen.

The queen heard the prince's low tone, and immediately retorted: "Prince, don't listen to this. It's the pure Weifu book. How could it be you who restrained it? You see that Jiabao is not in good condition. I saw that Jiabao has grown a little bit taller a few days ago." Woolen cloth."

"It's a great blessing to have a family treasure who is cared for by the queen mother." Xuanyuan Hancheng said to the queen.

After hearing this, the Queen's mood also improved a little, and she said to the Prince: "You will go on tour next month, how are you preparing? Jiabao will also go with you, and you need to bring more people to accompany you to serve you."

"Thank you mother for your concern, everything is ready." Xuanyuan Hancheng thought that Jiabao's birthday was in June, so he would prepare a surprise for him.Finally, when Guaibao passed his 16th birthday, he really couldn't wait to start talking.

At the beginning of May, His Royal Highness took Lin Fangjun to Luocheng, Jiangzhou and other places for inspection.

Xuanyuan Hancheng accompanied Lin Jiabao, Yuan Fu, Yuan Qing, Shu Qin, and Shu Ya, and was escorted by General Cao Yan with [-] soldiers.

Xuanyuan Han accepted that their first destination was Luocheng, and then they took a boat from Luocheng to Jiangzhou via the Luohe River.

Lin Jiabao was very excited along the way, lying by the window and watching the scenery along the way, his joy was beyond words.Xuanyuan Hancheng looked at Guaibao's happy face, and felt that he must take him out of the palace frequently in the future.

"When you arrive in Los Angeles, Xianggong will take you for a stroll." Xuanyuan Han promised with Guaibao in his arms.Los Angeles is a very prosperous city, I believe Guaibao can have fun.

Lin Jiabao nodded happily, instantly full of anticipation for Los Angeles.

After traveling for more than ten days and passing through several cities, their team finally saw the gate of Los Angeles.In front of the gate of Los Angeles, the civil and military officials of Los Angeles and the surrounding provincial capitals have been waiting early.

Xuanyuan Han got off the carriage, and Liu Zeqi, the Minister of War, led the officials to kneel down to greet him. "Congratulations, Your Highness the Prince."

"Exemption." Xuanyuan Hancheng looked at the officials who came to greet him, and asked, "Is Dai Heng here?"

"Master Dai is still inspecting the embankment in Jiangzhou, but he couldn't come." Liu Zeqi replied.

Zhong Kejie, the prefect of Los Angeles, stepped forward to salute His Royal Highness and said, "Your Highness has worked hard all the way, and I have prepared a welcome banquet for His Royal Highness. Please settle down at your residence first."

Xuanyuan Hancheng got on his horse when he heard that thinking about Guaibao was also tired, and the exquisite and luxurious carriage followed behind him.All the officials have already found out that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will bring his most beloved Lin Fangjun with him on this tour.Thinking that Lin Fangjun should be in this carriage, I don't know what kind of appearance makes His Royal Highness love him so much.Liu Zeqi was also very curious, staring at the carriage for a while.

That night, Los Angeles officials held a reception banquet for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.The banquet was divided into front and rear areas, and the officials in front were with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.In the back, Mrs. Lin was accompanied by the prefect's wife and a group of officials' wives.

The magistrate's wife saw that Mr. Lin was only 14 or 15 at a young age. He was kind and polite, and he didn't put on airs.I secretly thought to myself that His Royal Highness likes such twins...

At the banquet, Mrs. Zhifu enthusiastically introduced the customs and customs of Los Angeles, and invited Mr. Lin to enjoy the special delicacies of Los Angeles.

Lin Jiabao listened carefully to the prefect's wife's introduction to Los Angeles, and tasted the special dishes of Los Angeles with all his heart.Seeing Lin Fangjun listening to her with great interest, the magistrate's wife felt very embarrassed, and talked more about the historical sites of Los Angeles.The wives of other officials on the side were not to be outdone, and hurriedly showed their courtesy in front of Mr. Lin, and the atmosphere at the banquet was enthusiastic for a while.

Lin Jiabao responded gracefully to each of them without any impatience.It made all the wives of the officials feel like they were in the spring breeze, and Lin Jiabao also left a good impression in their hearts.The magistrate's wife thought that it was no wonder His Highness the Crown Prince loved this Lin Fangjun so much, how could it not make His Highness the Crown Prince feel comfortable and happy to have such a person by his side!

In the evening, Lin Jiabao and Xuanyuan Hancheng returned to their residence, which was donated by a wealthy merchant in Los Angeles.The bedroom had already been tidied up by Shu Ya and Shu Qin. After the two washed up, Xuanyuan Hancheng lay on the big bed made of carved jade with Jia Bao in his arms. "Baby, you did really well tonight!"

Lin Jiabao was also very happy to receive Xuanyuan Hancheng's praise, "I learned from the empress. When the empress summons the court ladies, I often watch from the side. This time I am going on tour with my husband, of course I have to behave well, no Embarrass your husband."

Xuanyuan Hancheng put his arms around Guaibao and kissed his dimples, "Guaibao, you can do whatever you want, you don't need to express yourself..."

"The magistrate's wife is very enthusiastic. She invited me to be a guest at the magistrate's mansion. Can I go?" Lin Jiabao asked expectantly.

"Of course, as long as you like, but you need to bring more guards to accompany you. I have to deal with some official business in the past few days, and then I will take you for a stroll in Los Angeles...Okay, baby. Let's go to bed early..." As Xuanyuan Hancheng was talking, he had already untied Jiabao's inner garment, and reached out his hand into Guaibao's chest.

Lin Jiabao hugged Xianggong's shoulders and let Xianggong touch and kiss him. Xianggong has to strip him naked every night now, even looking at him feels like fire is coming out of his eyes.

The approaching birthday makes Lin Jiabao shy and full of anticipation...
