1456. Chapter 1456 Inquiry

There used to be a rule in the Hundred Gardens that every year the empress or empress dowager would select a famous family to hold a feast of flowers. Since the empress was sent to the palace to recuperate, and the empress disappeared for several years, this rule has not been continued. Zhen is going to hold a banquet in Baihuayuan, and there is quite a commotion everywhere in the capital. Everyone knows what the Empress Empress is for this banquet, and she wants to choose companions for the prince and princess.

In addition to reading with him, will he choose some young and beautiful concubines for the emperor? This idea is not only thought of by one person, many people have this idea, after all, the empress has been married to the emperor for many years, no matter how beautiful the empress is, she will always be bored, besides, beauties are also attractive When love declines.

"Mother, why hasn't the empress come here yet?" In a corner of the Hundred Gardens, the girls of Cardamom Nianhua looked forward. They came here early, but so far they haven't seen anyone from the palace.

"Sit down, the empress will come when she comes." Madam Ruan gave her daughter a warning look.

Ruan Xiuzhen said in a low voice, "Mother, will the emperor... come to Baihuayuan today?"

"Have you forgotten what your father said? Everything that grandfather told you will be forgotten from your mind, don't mention it again." Mrs. Ruan snapped. She didn't want to take her daughter to Baihuayuan today, so she just Afraid that she still had some small thoughts in her heart, she clearly said at home that she didn't think about it anymore, and she followed her on a blind date these days, how could she still say such a thing.

"Mother, I'm just curious, I didn't think much about it." Ruan Xiuzhen said in a low voice, her delicate face became clear, without the shyness and anticipation she had when talking about the emperor before.

Mrs. Ruan looked at her for a while, and then nodded in relief, "We are here today for brother Mao, if he can become the companion of His Royal Highness, he will not have to worry about his future future, you are his aunt, how much Look at him a little bit, and stop hitting people who shouldn't be hitting."

Last time at the hunting ground, Ruan Zimao was present. Because of this incident, the Ruan family was trembling for several days. Ruan Jinghua even went to the palace to make amends. Fortunately, the emperor did not blame him, and the empress still sent a message to invite them to attend. Banquet, I just hope the prince doesn't keep it in mind.

"Mother, children are very forgetful, and His Royal Highness is only so old that he won't remember the hunting ground." Ruan Xiuzhen said soothingly.

I hope so.

Madam Ruan raised her eyes and didn't see her grandson, "You sit here, I'll go and see Brother Mao, I don't know where he went."

"Mother, what are you worried about? My sister-in-law must have gone to see someone." Ruan Xiuzhen's tone was a bit more disdainful. Her sister-in-law Lin's family background was not high, and she went to meet those noble ladies whenever she had the opportunity in Beijing. I don't know that people are laughing at her behind her back.

If it wasn't for the fact that father didn't join the cabinet until he was middle-aged, how could he have arranged such a marriage for eldest brother.

Ruan Xiuzhen felt that based on her current status and appearance, she would definitely marry a more noble person in the future, but the person she most wanted to marry was hard to get close to.

"Sister Zhen, why are you sitting here alone?" A beautifully dressed woman came over and interrupted Ruan Xiuzhen's meditation.

Ruan Xiuzhen looked up and immediately stood up, "Sister Jing'er."

The person who came was none other than Lu Jinger, who is now the concubine of the Fifth Prince, she glanced at Ruan Xiuzhen with a smile, "I saw you from a distance, I saw several little girls chatting over there, why don't you go over there. "

"They're talking about food and entertainment, I'm not interested." Ruan Xiuzhen frowned and said, "Sister Jing'er, did you bring Bang Geer here?"

Lu Jing'er looked down at Ruan Xiuzhen. She was in the women's college, and she was the daughter of the Ruan family. At that time, she heard that the old man of the Ruan family intended to send her to the palace. Ruan Xiuzhen was a well-known talented woman in the women's college. In terms of identity and appearance, they are all candidates above the imperial concubine level. The most important thing is that everyone thought Lu Yaoyao was dead at the time.

The position of queen is vacant, no matter who it is, they all want to calculate it.

That's why she approached Ruan Xiuzhen, thinking that if she really became the favorite concubine in the palace in the future, she might be able to help her son be crowned heir.

Who would have thought that Lu Yaoyao would come back...

"Bang Geer has been arguing to come here early in the morning, but I really have no choice but to come along." Lu Jinger said helplessly.

Ruan Xiuzhen curled her lips, "Bang Geer is smart at first glance, he is much better than that one, otherwise the fifth prince would not be so fond of him, if the emperor personally chooses the prince to read with him, he will definitely choose Bang Ge son."

"Then I will accept your good words." The smile on the corner of Lu Jing'er's mouth was brilliant. It wasn't that she praised her son. Raising such a silly son.

"Sister Jing'er, I heard...the empress is your elder sister?" Ruan Xiuzhen lowered her voice. She had never heard Lu Jinger mention the empress. She had only heard that the third bedroom of the Lu family didn't seem to have any contact with the other two, so she didn't know what was going on. Because of something.

Lu Jinger frowned, and gave Ruan Xiuzhen a meaningful look, "Yes, the queen is my third uncle's daughter, what's the matter?"

"I'm just a little curious. I heard that the empress is so beautiful that the emperor has never favored other concubines in the palace." Ruan Xiuzhen said with a blushing face.

It seems that this little girl hasn't given up yet, Lu Jinger looked at her with a half-smile, "That's not true, the empress also had helplessness, back then Concubine Shu was so popular that she forced the empress to go to Chengde Villa to avoid Her limelight."

Ruan Xiuzhen's eyes lit up. In this way, the empress is not invincible.

Lu Jing'er didn't know the truth of what happened back then, she only knew that Lu Yaoyao had fallen out of favor, and she felt extremely happy. As for the fact that the emperor brought Lu Yaoyao back now, it was probably for the sake of a pair of children. The so-called affection, she Not necessarily.

"It seems that no matter how good-looking she is, there will be times when she gets tired of looking at it." Ruan Xiuzhen whispered, still having expectations in her heart.

If Ruan Xiuzhen can really enter the palace to compete with Lu Yaoyao, there will be only advantages and no disadvantages for her, "Yes, men like fresh and young."

The fifth prince didn't hold her in the palm of his hand at the beginning, but now he only goes to the house of the fifteen or sixteen-year-old concubine every night. It's useless for her to be jealous and noisy, she has already seen through the virtues of men.

All she can rely on is her son.

Lu Jing'er was thinking of saying a few more words about Ruan Xiuzhen when the empress's voice came not far away.
