But Shui Rong couldn't help being taken aback when he heard Baoyu's request, how many women in the world wish to enter the palace to serve the emperor!Why are there still people who are unwilling to enter the palace?Dare I hear wrong?Shui Rong put back his smile and asked solemnly: "Are you sure you're asking for it? Is it because your sister doesn't want to enter the palace?" Shui Rong deliberately emphasized the word 'no'.

Baoyu nodded vigorously and said, "Indeed."

"Which sister is it?" Shui Rong asked again. "It's Lin Daiyu, my aunt's daughter."

"Oh! I see, it's the woman who sings Ju?" Shui Rong tilted her head and thought for a while, feeling slightly excited for some reason.

Baoyu hurriedly said: "Exactly, my cousin has no parents now, and she lives alone in my house. She is not in good health and needs to be supplemented with medicine all the year round. It is really pity! If she is elected into the palace again , who fights with others all day long and is jealous, wouldn't that kill her? So, I would like to ask the prince to give me an idea, how can I exempt her from this qualification?"

Shui Rong nodded, and pondered: "It's hard for you to think about her so much. It's rare for your cousin not to be greedy for glory. But since the emperor has issued an order, even though I am a prince, I can't disobey the emperor. How about this , there are still some days before the draft, I will find some free time tomorrow and go to Dongping Palace to inquire for you first, how about it?"

Baoyu faltered in his mouth, his head was covered with sweat, and he kept rubbing his hands there, with a longing look in his eyes.Shui Rong couldn't help frowning and said, "Can't wait for tomorrow?"

Baoyu stood up, bowed to Shui Rong again, and said, "My cousin has been unable to eat and sleep since she heard the news. She is now very haggard, and the villain can't bear to face it."

Shui Rong shook his head, stood up and said: "Okay! Then you can wait here, the king will come whenever you go." Baoyu bowed and bowed, thanking him non-stop.Shui Rong ordered Cheng En to accompany him here, and he brought another confidant guard Cheng Yong to Dongping Palace.

Unconsciously, an hour passed, and Baoyu, accompanied by Chengen, drank several pots of tea, but the prince still did not come back.Cheng En on the side was also anxious, thinking: Why is the prince still not returning to the mansion?Could it be that he was tripped by Shangge again?

Cheng En really guessed it right!When Shui Rong came to Dongping Wangfu, he went straight to Dongping Wangwai's study, a young eunuch had already gone in to report, and Dongping Wang greeted him at the door of the study with a smile.

It turns out that Princess Dongping is the second cousin of King Beijing, and Princess Dongping has a very good personal relationship with Concubine Jing in the palace, and often visits in the palace.So Shui Rong just thought of asking Princess Dongping before making any plans.

King Dongping smiled and said to Shui Rong: "We just met each other in the court, is there something that is inconvenient to say, so I have to come to my house to talk about it?" Shui Rong smiled and said: "I have nothing to say to you. Cousin's."

King Dongping laughed and said, "Well, you are water-melting! Thank you for speaking so lightly, your cousin will not be scolded by your cousin every time we meet, isn't it because my brother-in-law rescued you, but today I will be separated. Let's see who speaks well for you!"

Shui Rong also laughed and said, "What a rescue, we both have to be scolded." King Dongping also smiled and nodded non-stop.

"Who is speaking ill of my sister-in-law, let me tell you!" Following the voice, a childish young lady walked in, dressed in a powder blue dress, her eyebrows and eyes were extremely delicate and beautiful, the fly in the ointment was that her skin was a little dark, But also more playful and cute.

The person who came was Dongping Wang's direct sister Shang Gege, she is only 12 years old this year, she is the most clingy girl on weekdays, she didn't notice it in the first two years, but in the past two years, every time she saw the water dissolve, Shang Gege would not notice it waves.Every time Shui Rong went back to the mansion, if she was there, he would have to go to Shui Rong to tell poems and stories, endlessly...

Seeing Shangge come in, Shui Rong secretly groaned in his heart, it's more important to get to work quickly.Shui Rong smiled and asked Shang Gege: "Is your sister-in-law at home?" Shang Ge turned to Shui Rong and smiled: "Yes! I'll go with Brother Rong." Then he bowed his head shyly and walked out the door first.

Dongping Wang Qi said: "Why does this little girl seem to be a different person when she sees you, so she said she would sue us?" Shui Rong hurriedly said: "Brother-in-law also go in, so as not to scold my sister again later I."

King Dongping waved his hand and said: "I'm not going, I just got angry with her and asked me to go, it's too late for me to hide!" What else did Shui Rong say, Shang Gege turned back and said: "Are you really Are you going or not?" Shui Rong and King Dongping looked at each other with a smile, and hurriedly said to Shang Ge: "Then Lao Xiang'er will lead the way."

When I came to Princess Dongping's room in the backyard of the palace, I saw Princess Dongping was reconciling the account with the housekeeper there, and seeing Shangge come in, followed by Shui Rong, she tilted her head and asked, "Why did you two come together?" The butler was also busy coming up to say hello.

Shang Ge said first: "Brother Rong said he has something to ask Mrs. Wang for!"

"Ouch! It's really new. The last time I was scolded for professing to someone, I swore I would never care about his affairs again. Don't say it! I don't care, and I can't care about it!" Dong Ping The princess sealed her mouth as soon as she came up.

Shui Rong smiled helplessly: "Cousin!" Shang Ge also said anxiously: "Rejected before hearing anything, Sister-in-law Wang really knows how to bully people!"

Concubine Dongping interjected: "I bully others? Ask him, at such an age, he doesn't even have a concubine. He doesn't care about himself, but he still thinks about doing things for others!"

Shang Ge said: "He didn't say it wasn't his business, did he? Sister-in-law Wang's words just poke people's hearts. It's not like Rong brother will never look for Wang Hao again, is it?" As he said, Shang Ge turned his head to Shui Rong.

When Shui Rong heard Princess Dongping bring up this topic, his head grew bigger, and seeing Shang Ge talking for himself, he had no choice but to nod in agreement.Princess Dongping gave him a sideways glance, and said to the housekeeper, "Let's end here today, I didn't see these two enemies coming to torture me."

The butler smiled and said, "Yes, the slave will leave first." He turned and walked away.

Princess Dongping stretched out her smooth and white hands, rubbed her temples a few times, took a teacup from the table beside her, opened the bowl and took a sip, then raised her eyelids and said to Shui Rong, "Tell me what's the matter?"

Shui Rong took a step forward and said with a smile: "I know that you don't need to beat around the bush when talking to your elder sister. I want to ask you about the emperor's draft?" Princess Dongping was startled, then smiled again: "Why? You Have you taken a fancy to the candidate girl?"

Shang Gege at the side became a little anxious when he heard this, and said without hesitation: "Brother Rong won't fall in love with them!"

Concubine Dongping turned to Shang Gege and said, "How do you know it won't? Could it be that Rong'er has told you in private what kind of concubine he wants to choose?"

Shui Rong hurriedly raised his hands and said, "Cousin, it's nothing." Shang Ge wanted to say something but couldn't say it, and finally blushed, stomped his feet, and ran out.
