Chapter 374 Uncle Huang Picked For Me
The emperor glanced at the sixth prince, but said nothing.

The imperial concubine accepted the words with a smile: "The prince of Chu had a companion when he was studying in the Chu palace, so it is not easy to change when he comes to Wenhua Palace to study."

The fifth prince said: "Young Prince Chu, why not introduce your companion, so that everyone can get to know each other."

Everyone knew Su Jinrong, but everyone didn't know Su Chongjiu.

Ning Qingyu didn't like to talk, so he only said two names coolly: "Su Chongjiu, Su Jinrong."

Su Chongjiu and Su Jinrong were always lively, but they didn't say a word at this time, they only stood up and saluted when Ning Qingyu said his name.

The emperor sighed again: Look, other people's children are smarter than their own!It's not like I don't know, when I compare myself, I'm full of idiots.

The imperial concubine took over the round mission again.

"Third princess, you choose first."

Just when the third princess was about to speak, the emperor spoke.

"Qingheng, who are you looking at?"

The words of the third princess choked in her throat.

Ning Qingheng was not hypocritical, she pointed at Sister Yu, "I pick Sister Yu."

The emperor touched Ning Qingheng's hand, "Do you know her?"

Ning Qingheng said: "Yes, I know."

In fact, the two had only met once, but Ning Qingheng wisely did not say so.So everyone thought that the two of them were acquaintances.

The emperor then looked at Sister Yu again, this Sister Yu looked a little silly.

Although he was not very satisfied with Sister Yu, the emperor did not intend to refute Ning Qingheng.

"Since you guys know each other, it's Sister Yu. Is there another one? Who will Qingheng choose?"

Ning Qingheng did not choose directly, but said: "Uncle Huang, Qingheng doesn't know any of the other people, how about Uncle Huang choose for Qingheng?"

Ning Youbei glanced at Ning Qingheng, this girl was acting like a good girl.

Sure enough, the emperor Longyan was very happy.

"Since Qingheng doesn't know any of them, then Uncle Huang will choose for you."

Only then did the emperor take a closer look at these girls.

Since Sister Yu is not very smart, Qingheng still needs a smart and stable person by his side.

The emperor's eyes stopped on a girl about seven years old. She was not beautiful, but she was quite pleasing to the eye. The little person stood there with a solemn attitude.

The emperor pointed to the girl and asked, "Who is this girl?"

It seemed that the imperial concubine didn't listen to the introduction.

The imperial concubine smiled and re-introduced: "Her name is Han Yajing, and she is the granddaughter of Han Yushi."

Han Yushi's granddaughter?
That's fine!
The emperor lowered his head and asked Ning Qingheng, "Qingheng, do you like this Han Yajing?"

Ning Qingheng nodded, "I like whatever Uncle Huang chooses for me."

The emperor was delighted, "Well, Qingheng's companions are Han Yajing and Sister Yu."

The fourth princess curled her lips involuntarily: "Sycophant!"
The next step is for the princesses to choose companions to read.

The princesses are not as snobbish as the princes when they choose their companions, they basically choose to suit their own eyes.

In the end, Chen Lingyun, who was the most beautiful in the audience, was selected, and the youngest six princesses could only accept her.

After choosing the companions, the imperial concubine rewarded the dozen or so companions with the things they had prepared long ago.

Everyone was rewarded with a set of the four treasures of the brush, ink, paper and inkstone. In addition, the boys each received a pair of high-quality saddles, and the girls were rewarded with the best silk.

The emperor said to the imperial concubine again: "Qingheng's two companions each add a pair of saddles. Since they want to be Qingheng's companions, naturally they can't be too weak."

The imperial concubine agreed.

After the rewards were finished, the imperial concubine told everyone that classes would officially start after the Chinese New Year and the [-]th day of the first lunar month.

……

When going back, Ye Yu'an whispered to Ning Youbei: "I want to show Chong Jiu to my grandfather, can you say something nice for me?"

Ning Youbei didn't agree immediately, but said: "Yu'an, I heard that the threshold of Ye Mansion was broken by matchmakers. Is there such a thing?"

Ye Yu'an said:

"Youbei, I don't want to get married, but my grandfather is putting pressure on me. I think if he meets Chongjiu, he will like it, so he won't force me."

Ning Youbei disagreed.

"Yu'an, although we think Chong Jiu is cute, but your grandfather's temperament is not necessarily, maybe he thinks Chong Jiu is not serious enough.

Back then, your grandfather always disliked me because I was too outstanding. "

Ye Yu'an said: "But Chongjiu is also my son, I still want to show him to my grandfather."

Ning Youbei thought for a while, "How about this, I will take my three children to pay New Year's greetings to your grandfather in the second year of junior high."

Ye Yu'an was overjoyed: "You Bei, thank you!"

Ning Youbei was also deeply moved by seeing the scene of choosing a companion to read just now.

Back then, his mother and concubine died early, and he was an unfavored prince, while Ye Yu'an was the grandson of Ye Taifu and Prime Minister Ye, who was in full power.Originally, Ye Yu'an didn't have the turn to accompany him, but Ye Yu'an took the initiative to ask his father to be his companion.

In the end, the other princes and princesses had two companions, but he only had Ye Yu'an as a companion.

The two of them grew up together, shared similar interests, and experienced many things that no one else had experienced. Ye Yu'an also accompanied him on the rivers and lakes for several years, and was closer than a close friend.

Although Ye Yu'an later became Ning Youdi's bodyguard for special reasons, Ye Yu'an never had the intention of harming him, nor did he do him any harm.

It was precisely because of the memory of the past that Ning Youbei decided to help Ye Yu'an, otherwise he would not have dared to touch Su Yingxue's line of defense.

……

Prince Chu's Mansion

Although Ning Youbei became the emperor's younger brother, the plaque of Chu Palace has not been changed.

According to folk customs, the second day of junior high school is a day to pay New Year's greetings for father-in-law and mother-in-law. Qu Chu's parents were not there, so Ning Youbei said that he would take Ning Qingyu and Ning Qingheng to Yefu to pay New Year's greetings to Mrs. Ye.

Taifu Ye is Ning Youbei's teacher and a famous Confucian, so it would not be out of the ordinary for Ning Youbei to pay New Year's greetings for him.

But when Su Chongjiu said that he also wanted to go to Ye Mansion with Qingyu Qingheng, Qu Chu and Su Yingxue looked at Ning Youbei with meaningful eyes.

Although Su Yingxue never told Su Chongjiu who his father was, but Su Chongjiu knew that Ye Yu'an was his father.

Ning Youbei resisted the pressure from Qu Chu and Su Yingxue, and deliberately said: "If Ah Chu, you don't like me going to Ye Mansion, I don't have to go."

Qu Chu didn't expose Ning Youbei's trick, she left the decision to Su Yingxue.

Su Yingxue didn't object either, she just said, "Are you bringing so many children there to ask for money?"

According to the customs of the Dayu Kingdom, if a child comes to pay New Year's greetings, the host family will give out red envelopes, and the amount should not be too small, otherwise the host family will appear stingy.

But that's all Su Yingxue said, considering how rich Ye Mansion is, these three red envelopes would not be missing.

Ning Youbei said: "It's okay. Yu'an has received a lot of rewards this year, which just makes the three children happy."

Su Yingxue didn't say any more objections, but she didn't want Mrs. Ye to underestimate Su Chongjiu and dress him up carefully.
