Chapter twenty-seven reading
After the princess of Chu jumped and tossed outside for a few days, the nobles in the palace probably couldn't stand it anymore, so they quickly decided to be the candidates for Princess Heyi and the Xiangcheng County Lord. Princess Heyi's three attendants were Yu Qingqing, the fourth granddaughter of Duke Huaien, Fang Ruolan, the eldest granddaughter of the Minister of War, and Chen Cifu's granddaughter Chen Siting.
"Why is there no Xiaoxiao? I said I wanted Xiaoxiao to study with me, but I only like Xiaoxiao." Princess Heyi started a fuss.
Princess Qin hugged her and coaxed her softly: "Xiaoxiao is weak. You are willing to let her get up early and go to the palace. Are you so tired?" The considerations of the regime cannot tell her this child, and Princess Qin can only talk about Yan Hu's body.
"Xiaoxiao can live with me in the palace of the emperor's grandmother." Princess Heyi had already thought about it.
The Princess Qin smiled and said, "Xiaoxiao is a minister. She cannot stay in the palace forever. If you want Xiaoxiao, you don't have to let Xiaoxiao study with you. When you are resting, go to Xiaoxiao to play. If you have something delicious and fun, you can also send someone to Xiaoxiao. If you are thinking about Xiaoxiao, Xiaoxiao will not forget you."
"Fortunately Qingqing was selected." Princess Heyi accepted the facts helplessly.
"In the future, we must get along well with those attendants. It is impossible to just play with Qingqing alone, do you know?" Princess Qin instructed.
"I understand." Princess Heyi pouted.
The lord of Xiangcheng County was also three, including Zhao Wen, the fourth granddaughter of Duke Cheng, Li Dandan, the second granddaughter of the Minister of Rites, and Wu Zhilan, the daughter of the Hanlin Academy.
The Princess Chu was furious and smashed the cup in her hand to the ground, "Why should a daughter of a fifth-rank official be a attendant?" Of course, she only dared to get angry in the palace, but she did not dare to go to the palace to find the queen and demanded that the candidate be changed.
"Mother, although the position of a bachelor's degree in the Hanlin Academy is low, the Hanlin Academy is a place of honor, and the promotion of a bachelor's degree is easier than other officials. The emperor's grandmother is willing to choose a daughter of a bachelor's degree in the Hanlin Academy for her younger sister to be a attendant, which is quite unexpected to me." The prince of Chu persuaded with deep eyes.
"In other words, this bachelor of the Hanlin Academy is still a bit useful?" asked Princess Chu.
The prince of Chu nodded, and the princess of Chu turned angry and happy.
In addition to deciding who is the candidate to attend the lecture, the empress also gave marriage to the fifth princess. Although the fifth princess was persuaded by Concubine Lin and decided to marry the queen's nephew Yu Zhilin, unfortunately the queen had no intention of this, so the emperor general the fifth princess pointed out to Guo Haitao, the prince of Wuding Bo Mansion, and ordered the Ministry of Rites to choose auspicious day for the two to get married.
Wuding Bo Mansion relied on the merit of Long, but the descendants of the Guo family were not successful and had been somewhat defeated over the years. The emperor cared about the late old Wuding Bo, so that the princess could descend. Wuding Bo Mansion could also rely on the princess to become prominent for decades. However, in the past few decades, if Wuding Bo Mansion still could not raise a promising son to support the door, then the defeat would be the result of Wuding Bo Mansion. If the mud could not support the wall, there was no need to support it anymore.
At the end of July, Yan Tong'an, the second young master of the Yan family, and Yan Tonghua, the third young master, came back from Jiangning Mansion to participate in the August autumn examination. The two brothers knelt in front of Mrs. Yan and kowtowed, "Give me a blessing to my grandmother."
"Good boy, get up quickly." Mrs. Yan said happily.
After saying a few gossips, Mrs. Yan said, "You have been rushing for so long and have worked hard. Hurry up and go back to your room to rest. Your aunt has already asked you to clean up the room."
The two brothers hurriedly thanked Mrs. Yan.
Grandma Yan smiled and said, "A family, there is no need to be so polite." Grandma Yan and old lady Yan are still there, and the Yan family has not yet separated.
After two days of rest, on the first day of August, the brothers Yan Tongshu, Yan Tongan and Yan Tonghua went to the government to complete the procedures. After confirming their identities, the painter drew portraits of the three, received the number plates, and returned to the mansion.
On the same day, the emperor appointed two examiners for this autumn examination, one was Lord Xu, the Imperial College Superintendent, and the other was Lord Qi, the Grand Secretary of the Wenhua Hall of the Cabinet.
The next day, fresh fruits and vegetables were sent to the village in Miyun County. Princess Nanping divided the fruits and vegetables into five parts and sent them to Chunhuitang, the big room, the three bedrooms and the five bedrooms. She also kept one of her own room.
The maid washed the grapes and sent them in. Yan Hu tasted one, which was very sweet. He hurriedly asked, "Mom, are there any grapes in the village?"
"What are you going to do?" asked Princess Nanping.
"Send a basket to Prince Rong's Mansion to try it out for his grandfather, grandmother, uncle, aunt and cousin." Yan Huo said with a smile on his face.
"I have been sent to you long ago." Princess Nanping shaved her little nose.
Yan Huo pointed at the opponent's finger and said, "Mom, I want to send a basket to Duke Anguo's mansion to his grandmother and Aunt Fu."
"My family Xiaoxiao has grown up and knows how to communicate with others." Princess Nanping touched her head and asked her to go to the farm to ask for two baskets of fresh fruits and vegetables, and sent them to Duke Anguo's mansion in the name of Yan Hu.
After receiving these two baskets of fresh fruits and vegetables, Han smiled happily. The things were not worth much money, but it was Yan Hu's intention. In the evening, Fu Zhixing went home for dinner, and Han deliberately picked up a chopstick of garlic eggplant for him. Fu Zhixing frowned slightly, "I don't eat eggplant."
"You must eat this eggplant, otherwise you will regret it." Han raised his eyebrows and said.
"Isn't it just an eggplant, what's there to regret?" Fu Zhixing picked up the eggplant and put it in the plate next to him.
"Okay, you don't eat it, right? OK, mother, let's eat it." Han shrugged a wink to Princess Chengyang.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law ate all the fried beans, garlic-flavored eggplant, and leek-fried meat. Fu Zhixing looked at the two suspiciously, "You never eat so much at night, what's going on?"
Han signaled his maid to put away the table, picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said, "The fresh vegetables sent from this farm are delicious."
"Yes, it's delicious, but unfortunately some people are picky about food and refuse to eat it. If Xiaoxiao finds out, she will definitely be sad." Princess Chengyang curled her lips.
"What does this have to do with Xiaoxiao?" Fu Zhixing asked in confusion.
"In the afternoon, the Yan Mansion sent someone to deliver two baskets of fruits and vegetables, beans, eggplant and leeks. Xiaoxiao specially sent them to you for a try, but someone didn't appreciate it." Han said sideways.
"Mother." Fu Zhixing shouted helplessly.
"Stop shouting, dinner has been finished. If you want to eat, wait for noon tomorrow." Han said with a smile.
"See if you are still picky about food in the future!" Princess Chengyang teased her grandson and wanted to squeeze him out.
A few days later, it was the ninth day of the eighth month, and the first entrance time of the autumn examination once every three years.
At the beginning of the Mao hour, the three Yan Tongshu brothers carried bamboo boxes containing various things on their backs, and were escorted by Uncle Yan, Sanye Yan and Siye Yan to the tribute courtyard.
At the gate of the Gongyuan, there were already many people. The soldiers and horses from the Five City Military Office took portraits and called their names one by one, checked their identities, and questioned them one by one, for fear that someone would impersonate them. It took more than an hour for all the students to take the exam to enter the Gongyuan.
