Chapter 107

In the 14th year of Kangxi, it was time for the draft every three years, and all the talented girls from all over the country rushed to the capital.

It was bustling outside, but Nalan Mingzhu, the newly-appointed scholar of Martial Arts Hall, was upset and irritable, sighing in the study.

His Fujin Aixinjueluo couldn't help asking, "My lord, what's the matter? The emperor just made you a bachelor of Wuyingdian and you looked sad. If people find out about this, they will think you are dissatisfied with the emperor's decision." !"

Mingzhu sighed, "Oh! It's going to be an audition now, and our family doesn't have a suitable girl, can I not worry about it!"

"You are just in a hurry. What's the matter if there are no girls in the palace? Doesn't the emperor value you as much? The palace is not a good place to go. I'm really looking forward to not having a girl in the fire pit!" Aixinjueluo said disapprovingly.

Mingzhu glared at her, "A woman's opinion! Since ancient times, the front court and the harem have complemented each other. Don't underestimate the power of the wind in your ears. If there is a girl in the harem, men can understand the emperor's thoughts more clearly. Stand firmer! If our girl gives birth to another dragon son, even if we can’t ascend to the throne, we can keep our family prosperous for three generations! If we can go further, our Nalan family can ascend to the sky in one step! You see, which of the eight surnames in Manchuria is not doomed Some sent people to the emperor's harem? Some even sent several..."

Aixinjue Luo Shi twisted his waist, "How do you know the power of the wind in your ears? Hmm? Could it be that someone blows the wind in your ears?"

Mingzhu hurriedly begged for mercy, "Fujin Mingcha, my master has always kept himself clean, and always takes detours when he sees women!"

Mingzhu was afraid that she would not believe her, and even swore to God that if he lied, he would die. Aixinjueluo then withdrew his hand in satisfaction, and continued to talk about business, "What you said makes sense, but if you want to be rich, you have to take as much risk as possible." , you have to think about it. Besides, our family is not without girls, haven't you already adopted one from a side branch?"

Mingzhu nodded, "I've seen this girl before, and she looks really good. She is outstanding in every aspect of piano, chess, calligraphy, painting and calligraphy. She has both talents and virtues. She is also very intelligent, but she is a little young, only 15 years old. Since After the Lord Long Live said that only females can serve in bed, the families of the Eight Banners did not dare to marry prematurely. In addition, the draft three years ago was not carried out because of the cut off. Seven or eight years old, it's no secret that Long Live God likes plump and mature girls (Dawu). In addition, after so many years of careful education, girls naturally know a lot more than 15-year-old girls. Therefore, we This is not an advantage. But if you wait until three years later to participate in the draft, you don’t know how many accidents will happen in the middle. Besides, who knows whether the draft will be held after three years? The emperor’s mind has always been unpredictable, and especially It's really strange to contradict the draft!"

Aixinjue Luo gave him a white look, "Is it strange not to love beautiful women? In my opinion, Lord Long Live has someone in his heart..."

Mingzhu sneered, "The emperor came to the throne at the age of six, and his every move after he took the throne is under the noses of others. If someone really got his favor, how could he keep silent? Besides, the woman he has met It’s just those in the harem, and I haven’t seen anyone he particularly likes. The group of people who entered the palace six years ago are all eighteen or nineteen years old now, and so far there is no Cheng Huan. ..."

He said the last sentence in a low voice, but it was no less than a heavy thunder in Aixinjueluo's ears. She widened her eyes and asked, "Really?"

"...I guessed wildly."

Aixinjue Luo breathed a sigh of relief, and said coquettishly, "You scared me to death! How dare you talk nonsense about such things? You are not afraid of losing your head! However, such things are not sure. Fortunately, Huier did not stay in the In the palace, although this child is not my own, I have watched her grow up, if she has a bad life, I will feel bad."

Speaking of this, Nalan became even more depressed. When the emperor first drafted, his family had no girls of the right age, so Huier, who was raised in the house, was put on the genealogy and sent to the draft. Although he kept a sign, he was given a marriage Give it to someone else!Even though Hui'er was given an excellent marriage, and now that they are married and live happily ever after, he still feels bad.

"If Hui'er had stayed in the palace back then, I wouldn't be so worried now! Huier's age is just right, even if she was too young to be favored at the time, but staying in the palace for six years is naturally better than just entering the palace now. It's much better. Now, even if we girls go, we have to wait another three years to be favored..."

"It's good to have a girl, you still pick and choose!"

"I'm not picking and choosing. Our Nalan family has few girls. They are very precious. I finally sent one in. Naturally, I have to make plans for her. She looks too outstanding. If she goes in at a loss, she will definitely be rejected. People as targets! I have to pave the way for her in the palace."

"Is it still kind of cooperating with you?"

"That's not..."

The two of them were talking, when someone came to report, "Master, Fujin, Gege from Guangzhou has arrived."

Mingzhu and Aixinjueluo looked at each other, they really said that Cao Cao Cao Cao is here, their 'daughter' is here.

Yun Xi was led into the Nalan Mansion, and Ming Zhu and his wife had been waiting for a long time. After seeing the ceremony and taking their seats, Aixinjue Luo said with a smile, "Sure enough, you are a symbolic person. Er Niang called you Yun Xi." How are you?"

Yunxi also smiled back, "Of course, Ama Erniang also called me Yunxi when I was at home."

"Is the road to Beijing going smoothly? Didn't you encounter any trouble?"

"Thanks to you, everything went well."

The two asked and answered amiably, and the atmosphere was surprisingly harmonious.

Six years ago, Yunxi woke up and turned into a nine-year-old girl who died of smallpox. Coincidentally, her ama was also surnamed Nalan. At first, she thought she was the pearl of Nalan. Ma is just an offshoot of Nalan's family.This year, Mingzhu went around looking for a suitable girl from the side branches to enter the palace. The ancients had a strong family concept, and it was for the sake of the whole family. Her Ama pushed her out.

In the harem, family background is also important. The daughter of a scholar in the Hall of Martial Arts is always more valuable than the daughter of a low-level official.Mingzhu said that if she entered as his daughter, a concubine would not be able to escape, so she was adopted to Nalan Mingzhu.

Both left and right are surnamed Nalan, and she has nothing to worry about.Moreover, there is also a male god as an elder brother, which is simply not too good!

In other words, should she be called Brother Nalan or Brother Rongruo?well!It's so distressing, this kind of sweet burden will not be understood by people who don't have a male god brother!

However, I really want to make this kind of distress a little bit more, how can I break it!
Aixinjue Luo was sympathetic to Yunxi's fatigue, and asked someone to take her to rest, saying that she would introduce her to her family members at the reception banquet in the evening.

Yun Xi thanked her and left.

When Yunxi went out, Aixinjueluo said to Mingzhu, "You can rest assured now? This girl is not to mention a man, even I was tempted to see it! From her words, it can be seen that she has a plan in her heart." , won’t let people bully you.”

Mingzhu finally had a hint of joy, but she still said, "What's the use of your liking? The emperor must like it. No one knows what the result will be until the last moment. Now, we can only do our best and obey the destiny." .”

At the reception banquet in the evening, Yunxi finally met the male god!After not seeing each other for so many years, the male god has also grown up, as elegant and noble as she imagined.Standing next to him was his wife, Lu Shi, who was an extremely gentle woman. Standing there, it made people feel like a clear spring, quiet and elegant, and immediately made Yunxi feel good about her.

Yun Xi greeted her with a smile, "This is sister-in-law, right?"

Lu Shi was about to return the courtesy, but was supported by Yun Xi, "Sister-in-law, you don't need to be so polite, you are inconvenient, please sit down and rest."

Because of someone's reasons, Lu Shi and Nalan also postponed their marriage. Therefore, Lu Shi only got married last year, and now she is six months pregnant.

Lu Shi smiled slightly at Yunxi, and didn't refuse. He sat down and the two of them started chatting.Seeing this, Nalan Rongruo on the side was even happier. He was already looking forward to having an extra younger sister. Seeing that the new younger sister fell in love with his beloved wife, he was only delighted.

"Sister Yunxi."

Hearing Nalan Rongruo calling her like that, Yunxi's heart fluttered immediately, the male god spoke to me!The male god still calls me sister!How should I answer in order to appear generous and decent, not to be so nympho, so that the male god thinks that I am calm, wise, thoughtful and connotative?Wait online!urgent!
Yun Xi looked at Rong Ruo, but didn't answer, the atmosphere froze for a moment, but fortunately, Mingzhu and his wife came in at this time, dissolving Yun Xi's embarrassment.

Yun Xi really wanted to slap herself twice, she behaved too badly when meeting the male god for the first time!I don't know if the male god will give her a negative score?

The dinner party was naturally joyful and harmonious. The Nalan family has always been full of yang and yin, and now there is a younger sister (daughter), who is also a beautiful and well-behaved girl. Of course, no one doesn't like it.

Yun Xi stayed very comfortably in Nalan Mansion, playing the piano and chatting with Lu Shi every day, or reciting poems with the Nalan brothers, and Nalan Kuixu even took her out to play dressed as a man, which made Yun Xi a little bit happy.As for her coming to the capital to participate in the draft to meet Xuan Ye, she had already forgotten about it.

Until Mingzhu came to her worriedly and said, "Yunxi, the draft is coming soon, why don't you stay with your mother and let her teach you some experience?"

Is this a euphemism to persuade her to calm down?It seems that she has really played crazy these days, which made Mr. Ming Xiang worried about her way into the palace.Yun Xi was a little shy, and replied, "Daughter knows she's wrong, and made Ama worry."

Mingzhu hurriedly waved her hand and said, "No, no, Yunxi, don't think too much, Ama has no other meaning, just to ask your mother-in-law to teach you some experience, so that you won't be able to figure out the way after entering the palace. You know, your mother-in-law was born The royal family knows many things that others don't..."

After all, she is not her own daughter, so she can't be beaten or scolded, but can only be coaxed. Master Mingzhu really broke her heart for Yunxi.

Yunxi knew it well, and her favorability for Mingzhu increased again. She didn't expect that Mingzhu, who would form a party to sell officials for profit in the future, would also have such a lovely side.

"...Ama has arranged some manpower for you in the palace, so that you will not be blinded when you enter the palace. This is a token. You can take it well. If you have any difficulties, you can let me know. Although you are told Entering the palace is intended to take advantage of it, but it is also for our Nalan clan. We are a whole body, one is prosperous and the other is damaged."

Seeing that Yun Xi nodded, and there was no expression of complaint on her face, Mingzhu felt relieved, and continued, "Don't worry, as long as the Nalan clan doesn't fall, no one will dare to move your position in the palace. If you can If you seize the emperor's heart, grab the husband and make him the prince, you may not be able to fight for the queen's position."

Hearing this, Yun Xi smiled, "The Queen's position is in my purse, so why fight for it?"
