Chapter 12 A quick year (one)

Although Zhu Yinglong gave instructions on his birthday to be cheap and low-key, his Wanbao Festival still made all officials celebrate for three days in a hurry, and the money was really spent a lot of money. However, Sun Shenxing didn't say a word. According to Sun Shenxing, the governors and governors of the court and the governors of the court and the governors of the provinces and the border officials had their own thoughts. It was easy to touch their ideas with Wanbao Festival. The arrangement was too simple and there was no way to see anything. Therefore, Sun Shenxing gave the green light to Wanbao Festival.

This year's Wanshou Festival is more than three points better than when the Tianqi reigned. Moreover, the wealthy provinces in Jiangnan were not under the control of the court. The reason is very simple. In the past, when the gifts were given to the emperor on the Wanshou Festival, they had to pass Wei Zhongxian's hands first. Wei Zhongxian had to pick up the decent gifts to be left to send to Emperor Tianqi. But this time, Wanshou, there is no level of the Lijian. Even if the gifts are not as good as before, it seems to be better than the seven years of Tianqi's reign.

"Your Majesty, are you allowed to choose so many jewelry by me?"

Everything in this world can be changed, but there is one thing that cannot be changed, that is, the attraction of jewelry and jade to women are with the gravity.

"Of course I have said, you can choose three jewelry and jadeware here, and let the rest be taken outside the palace to deal with." Zhu Yinglong said happily at his beautiful and charming concubines.

Although Zhu Yinglong said that, the concubines' faces were covered with pearls and jewels, and their cheeks were red and charming. Even Xu Ruying, who was extremely low-key after entering the palace, could not help but be moved when she saw the piles of jewelry and jadeware piled up into small hills, and her breathing became much thicker and longer. Even though the girls wanted to get what they like, none of them stood up to choose the first.

Zhu Yinglong was very surprised. Why did they stand on the spot and not go forward to choose? Just as they were about to ask, Xiong Hu winked at him and immediately understood that he could treat every woman regardless of size. However, after all, the harem needed a person in charge. This person might still be the queen in the future, so the first person to choose is particularly critical, because she is very likely to become the queen. According to the traditional hierarchical concept, Xu Ruying is the highest-ranking one. She should be the first to stand up and choose. However, she knew that she could not become the queen and did not have this ambition, so she absolutely

She would not be the first to stand up. Xiong Hu was the turn of the rest. She always acted as a hand-off manager. Her harem was a tedious little thing and was not suitable for her at all. So she was eager to win over Zhu Yinglong. The third place was Concubine Ning Zhou Yingning. She was originally the official concubine and was the candidate for the queen. However, if she was the first to stand up, it might arouse suspicion from all officials. She thought that the emperor was fighting for the position of the queen, and every move of the Tian family affected the direction of the court and the public, so she did not dare to stand up first. The sisters of the Tian family, Taisong and Shen Qianqian, were even more afraid to stand up first, and looked at Zhu Yinglong with a ticking look.

It’s so complicated to pick a jewelry, Zhu Yinglong smiled bitterly. If this continues, wouldn’t the old path of the harem continue in his hands? He still wants to be a terminator, which seems to be not ordinary.

They can't wait for too long, it will be embarrassing if they are too long. Zhu Yinglong deliberately pretended to cough a few times and said with a smile: "Let's do this, I will choose for my beloved concubines. See if I can communicate with my beloved concubines and choose what you like!"

"Okay!" Ye Lianyi, the youngest, clapped her hands first and agreed. She was already pregnant and was like a little girl, without the awareness of being a mother.

"This method is good, but what if the emperor chose not the one we sisters like?" asked the naughty Tian Shulan with a sly smile.

"This..." Zhu Yinglong just started to think too much, and couldn't answer for a while.

"It's good. If the emperor picks what we don't like, we must compensate us in other forms. Sisters, would you say that?" Xiong Hu has always been appealing among the girls. Her proposal was responded by the girls, and even the girls knew the general idea, Zhu Yinglong responded.

Women can be used to spoil, not to be used to spoil them. If they put forward any excessive conditions, Zhu Yinglong will check according to principles, even if he breaks his promise, he will not agree.

Zhu Yinglong laughed and said, "Okay, Li Niang's suggestion, today I will just play a game with my beloved concubines. Come on, I will start by coming up with this good suggestion, Li Niang!"

"This is a pair of jade bracelets. Li Niang, you love martial arts. Putting a pair of jade bracelets will inevitably affect the strength of your wrists. It seems that you won't like this pair of jade bracelets." Zhu Yinglong said while observing the changes in Xiong Hu's eyes. He found that when he said he didn't like it, a hint of disappointment suddenly appeared in Xiong Hu's eyes. Zhu Yinglong immediately understood it, picked up the jade bracelet and held it in front of Xiong Hu and said, "But, this pair of jade bracelets are so good that Li Niang, you are wearing a green double-breasted campanile coat today, so I will definitely give this pair of jade bracelets to Li Niang!"

Xiong Hu immediately took it with her love and showed a faint hint of joy and said, "I thank you, the emperor!"

Next, based on their observation and quick wisdom, all the girls got their favorite jewelry one by one, and they all looked at the promise they had just made. In fact, it was strange. The governors and governors of various provinces and the civil and military officials gave him the birthday gifts of the emperor. Why are there half of them used by women? Do they all know that filial piety to the emperor and the empresses of the palace? With this question, Zhu Yinglong walked to the last person, in front of Shen Qianqian, the concubine of Xianfu Palace, in front of the concubine who had been to her bedroom the least, he picked a pair of agate pendant and handed it to Shen Qianqian, and asked softly: "Qianqian, this agate earring is very suitable for you. Do you like it?"

"I don't like it!"

Shen Qianqian's reaction was beyond everyone's expectations. The agate earrings were finely made, rounded in color, and flowing in color. Everyone thought that even if Shen Qianqian didn't like it, she wouldn't say such blunt words.

Zhu Yinglong was also stunned. He was not very good at jade, agate, jade and other things. He just wanted to look at him. The officials below would not fool him, as the emperor. It would be important to find out. So even if the agate earrings in his hand were not priceless, at least they were not inferior. Doesn't she like this color?

Zhu Yinglong immediately put down the agate earrings in his hand, picked out a pair of top-quality bloodstone earrings, and asked again: "What about this pair?"

Chen Qianqian glanced at it and shook her head.

Zhu Yinglong was surprised and passed five passes and slashed six generals all the way. However, the last person was stuck. He put down the bloodstone earrings in his hand, reached out and grabbed a necklace made of Hepu pearls made of 100 spirits and eight longans, and said, "Love, this is a difficult treasure. One hundred and eight necklaces made of Hepu pearls of almost the same size. It's right for you. Come on, I'll wear them on you, okay?"

Chen Qianqian seemed a little moved, but with a flash of emotion, she quickly moved her eyes away from the pearls that were as big as a long eye on Zhu Yinglong's hand, then bowed slightly to Zhu Yinglong, raised her red lips and said, "Your Majesty, I want to ask, "Your Majesty, I want to ask, "Your Majesty, what Sister Li Niang proposed just now, should you take it seriously?"

Zhu Yinglong put the pearl necklace in his hand, glanced at the other girls in surprise, and said solemnly: "I am the Lord of the Nine Five, so what I said is naturally true."

"Since it's true, I don't want any jewelry. I want the emperor three nights. Can the emperor agree?" Although Chen Qianqian was very calm when speaking, her nervous shoulders shaking slightly fell into Zhu Yinglong's eyes.

"Three Nights?" Zhu Yinglong has always been wary of Chen Qianqian. Although she may not know her mother's true identity, the marriage was proposed by herself. Since she had someone else's daughter, she should not be too wronged. If Zhu Yinglong had never touched Chen Qianqian, it would be a different matter.

"Does the emperor want to break his promise?" This is not like a conversation between a couple, it is like a two-party negotiating.

No matter what, finally, the couple had a relationship. If her mother had not been in the middle, he would have treated her well. A talkative and lively girl became so mature and indifferent after only half a year of entering the palace. She was at least half of her responsibility and said immediately: "I promise you!"

"Thank you, the emperor!" Chen Qianqian said: "Qianqian thinks tonight is the first night. I ask the emperor to come to Xianfu Palace. I prepare wine and food to wait for the emperor."

Although Zhu Yinglong didn't know what Chen Qianqian had in her purpose, since she agreed to her, she could not repent and said, "Let's go when I finish the memorial!"

"Thank you, I will leave first!" Chen Qianqian was unintentionally the most incompatible among the concubines. She was a victim of a political marriage. Although Zhu Yinglong was a little nicer to her, he always kept a wary attitude towards her. If he did not let go of this warning, even if he had false intentions, it would be a tragedy, not to mention that this was contrary to his purpose of being a human being.

At least for the time being, Zhu Yinglong still believes that Chen Qianqian is innocent. The Lan family is so hidden that it is impossible to jump back if it jumps out. I believe that the people of the Lan family understand the importance of opportunity more than all those who have different intentions.
