Queen is the top

It was May, which was the season when roses were in full bloom. He Jingyi chose a sunny day and took Shi Yuqing to Liuzhen Garden to enjoy the flowers.

Shi Yuqing walked on the gravel path in the rose field, looking at the roses of various colors in the garden, smelling the fragrance of flowers blown by the breeze, she just felt relaxed and happy.

"I went to pay my respects to my mother last week. I saw that she was wearing a rose-like brocade robe. Why don't we pick some roses and send them to my mother?"

He Jingyi nodded: "Lan Jun observes very carefully, just listen to you, I will order someone to pick some to send to the queen mother, and I will send some to the father."

Shi Yuqing smiled and said: "Father is such a heroic person, so does he also like roses and other flowers?"

He Jingyi caressed a white rose in his hand, and said quietly: "I only love roses."

Shi Yuqing looked at his suddenly melancholy look, wondering if it touched his mind, nodded and turned sideways to continue admiring the roses in the garden.

He Jingyi looked at his little face that looked more vivid under the sunlight, and smiled in a good mood: "I have prepared some wine and pastries, how about we sit in the tree pavilion and enjoy them?"

Shi Yuqing thought of the magnificent view of the imperial city from the tree, and nodded with anticipation.

Seeing that he agreed, He Jingyi hugged him in his arms and said softly, "Are you ready?"

Shi Yuqing nodded, and immediately left the ground, and was led by him to jump into the tree pavilion.

The tree pavilion was still the same as last time, only a small table was placed on the blanket, with more pastries, fruits, and a jug of wine on it.

He Jingyi poured a glass of wine for Shi Yuqing, Shi Yuqing held it up to the tip of his nose, smelled it, licked it with the tip of his tongue, and said in surprise, "What kind of wine is this? It's sweet, not spicy at all."

He Jingyi smiled at him and said, "I even wrinkled my nose from drinking the wine, what kind of wine can you drink, it's made from roses, it was hidden in the garden last year, and it's just right to drink when it's taken out this year."

Shi Yuqing smiled: "I originally wanted to try to improve my drinking capacity, but unfortunately His Highness was sympathetic to me and didn't give me wine."

He Jingyi wondered: "Why do you remember to practice drinking?"

"There are all kinds of banquets in the palace. I have only been in the palace for less than two months, so I haven't experienced it yet, but Baobuqi will always attend banquets with Jingyi. How can I not drink?"

He Jingyi shook his head with a smile: "You are very thoughtful, why should I worry about these things?"

Shi Yuqing shook her fingers, said with a smile on her lips, "I'm a man after all, if I keep asking Jingyi to help hold back the wine, it will make me look delicate and be talked about behind my back, it's not good for Jingyi, I'm still Practice your drinking capacity so that you can socialize with others."

He Jingyi saw that every sentence he said was reasonable, and he was thinking of himself inside and outside of what he said, so he pressed it in his heart, and touched his little face: "It's hard for you to think about it."

Shi Yuqing smiled, drank a glass of brewed wine, and said towards the boundless and bright sky outside the pavilion: "Such a beautiful scenery, and such good wine and wine, what seems to be lacking?"

He Jingyi looked at the jade flute he had already held in his hand with a funny face, and he was clearly ready, and cooperated, "What's missing?"

His words hit Shi Yuqing's heart, he turned the jade flute in his hand, and said with a smile: "It lacks some rhythmic foil."

He Jingyi smiled and held up his wine glass, looked at him tenderly, and drank the fine wine; "Then I would like to ask the Crown Princess to play a song."

Shi Yuqing rarely said mischievously: "It's easy to say, easy to say."

After he finished speaking, he lifted the jade flute to his lips to play, and He Jingyi leaned on the layers of soft pillows, his deep eyes were fixed on him tightly, and the delicious wine he drank slowly followed his throat. It flowed down slowly, making his face slightly reddish.

Alcohol is not intoxicating, people are self-intoxicating.

Seeing Shi Yuqing concentrating on playing the jade flute, He Jingyi felt deeply intoxicated by it, but he didn't know whether it was the wine, the sound of the flute, or Shi Yuqing who made him drunk.

After Shi Yuqing played a song "Journey to Gusu", He Jingyi pulled her body over, hugged her in her arms, and pressed her down.

Shi Yuqing reacted and struggled slightly: "Jingyi, it's not allowed here, people will see it."

With a wave of He Jingyi's right hand, a row of curtains formed by natural leaves fell, covering all movement of the people in the pavilion, only strips of light passed through the gaps in the curtains and reflected on the two of them.

The sensitivity of Shi Yuqing's body was touched one by one by him, and his emotions were also aroused by him. Before his consciousness wandered, he heard He Jingyi's hoarse and deep voice: "I wanted to do this a long time ago, Lan Jun."

The two were swept away by lust, leaving only the whispers of love overflowing the tree pavilion.

It's time for the annual draft in the palace, because the emperor ordered some older maids in the harem to be released from the palace, and he is unwilling to accept new concubines, so this draft is not to select concubines, but to select female officials.

But if she became a female official, she would be able to roam around the palace, and she would have a chance to be favored by the emperor. Even if she couldn't be favored by the emperor, it would be a good choice if she hooked up with the prince.

For this reason, many princes and ministers sent their daughters of the right age to the palace to participate in the selection of female officials.

All kinds of beautiful or graceful or gorgeous or delicate official ladies are led by the eunuchs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs to the Shang Palace Bureau. After passing the first selection in the Shang Palace Bureau, they will go to each bureau for examinations according to their personal ambitions. May have the opportunity to remain in the bureau.

The candidate for the female official will be reported by the Dashang Palace to the concubine in charge of the sixth palace for personal review, and the concubine will finally decide whether to stay or not.

Shi Qiaohuang lowered his head and put his hands in his sleeves, and followed the team neatly towards the Shang Palace Bureau.

Her purpose of entering the palace this time is simple, to pass the examination of the Shangshi Bureau and become a pharmacist. She has carefully considered that the most potential danger in the palace is food and medicine. If she can stay in the Shangshi Bureau, at least she can protect her. Know the safety of Shi Yuqing's food and medicines.

Shi Qiaohuang thought of Shi Yuqing, and smiled slightly. In her heart, Shi Yuqing will always be her innocent and kind brother who needs her protection.

Shi Yuqing didn't know about her entering the palace this time, since the idea of ​​entering the palace came into being, the most difficult thing for Shi Qiaohuang to break through was the old matriarch's pass.

Although the old lady loves Shi Yuqing, she also loves Shi Qiao Huang, and can't bear her to suffer in the palace, and hopes that she can find a man with a gentle and considerate family to marry.After all, a woman wants to marry, but it is difficult to get out after entering the palace.

If it hadn't been reminded by Shi Qiaohuang last time, the old matriarch was so frightened that there were traitors in the womb, and Shi Qiaohuang begged many times, the old matriarch would never let her granddaughter go to the palace to suffer .

Shi Qiaohuang thought of the sad face of the old lady who was worried about him, and the tears of his mother who cried for a long time in her room last night, and his heart suddenly softened. I didn't even take a look when I entered the palace, but only asked someone to give me a few words of advice.

Shi Qiaohuang sighed. A few years ago, her father still cared very much for herself and Yuqing, but these years, her father lived in Xiyuan, and he was probably bewitched a lot, and he treated them more and more coldly. After a long time, she became numb I can't even feel uncomfortable.

Shi Qiaohuang was thinking about his own thoughts, unlike the other officials' daughters who peeked at the surrounding environment from time to time, and even whispered to each other if they were bold.

Xu Yan, the general manager of the Shang Palace Bureau, looked at the colorful young girls standing in the hall. Her expression was cold and unapproachable. She glanced at everyone present, and finally moved her eyes to the side. Si Yan at the side understood and said loudly, "Quiet!"

There was a sudden silence in the hall, Xu Shanggong nodded in satisfaction, and Si Yan at the side took out the roster of female officials for this election, called them one by one, and went forward to accept the palace test.

Shi Qiaohuang stood upright with his head down, until he heard Si Yan call out a person's name, he raised his head in shock.

She looked at the girl who was wearing a bright rose red dress and walked in front of the palace with a proud smile. Her pupils involuntarily swelled up, but soon she calmed down again and lowered her head, but her eyes were unconsciously observing each other's eyes. movement.

Teacher Qiao Ting!
