Chapter 1238 Grandpa and grandson meet again on the sparrow screen selection (7)
Rong Qing collected himself and said, "It's better... not to touch it."
Is it better not to touch it? What does this sentence mean? Could it be that Geng Yun's bottom line has an unspeakable relationship with his elder brother?
…
The next few days were quite calm. The death of Geng Huai caused a wave in Shengjing, which was quickly replaced by the shock of Geng Yun's dismissal. In the history of southern Xinjiang, there are very few cases where a son-in-law holds an official position. Because he was too good, he won the approval of the king of Nanjiang. Of course, Queen Geng's dealings were also indispensable. Now that this outstanding son has been dismissed, it is shocking to think about it.
But Shengjing has never been a place that lacks resources for conversation. The fact that Geng Ling'er cried when she went to the Marshal's Mansion and was turned away instantly overwhelmed the limelight of Geng Yun's dismissal, and people started talking about the marriage between the Geng family and the Marshal's Mansion. They all felt that the two were going to "marry". Some people scolded Geng Ling'er for not being self-respecting, and sang the scene of crying, making trouble and hanging himself before he got through the door. Some people questioned Rong Lin, saying that he disobeyed the Queen's order and refused to marry Geng Ling'er for a long time. Princess of Xiliang County...
The official did not give any explanation, and the common people talked about it for fun, and the first day of July soon ushered in.
The matter of exchanging the same fate Gu for Patriarch Geng was delayed because of the series of fights between them.
Princess Deqing has a very generous heart. She doesn't care about having the same fate Gu in her body. She lives leisurely and leisurely every day. Her body has recovered, and she can no longer use the excuse of illness not to discuss marriage, so she enters the palace accompanied by Xuanyin. Rong Qing wanted to pay attention to Sikong Shuo's condition in the mansion, so Rong Lin also stayed.
King Xuan barely got Xuan Yin's approval after he almost broke the lip with Xuan Yin. Let's have a round of interviews first!
What King Xuan thought was, there are so many beautiful men in southern Xinjiang, what if someone who bumps into a ghost falls into the eyes of Princess Deqing? Anyway, the so-called literary test and the so-called martial arts test are just a formality, isn't it? The princess hates marrying, how can the Zhongchang attendant stop her?
King Xuan welcomed Xuanyin and Princess Deqing to the throne, and pulled a hollow screen in front of them. A certainty.
King Xuan himself sat in the outer seat and presided over this round of interviews.
The interview process is similar to the emperor's draft. First, an unmarried man with good facial features and no obvious hidden diseases is selected by an innocent family, aged between fifteen and twenty-five. After being selected into King Xuan's mansion, King Xuan invited experienced eunuchs and imperial physicians in the palace to give each man a physical examination to see whether his body was healthy enough, whether it was of sufficient size and appearance, whether there was any smell or scars, and so on. There were 500 young masters from aristocratic families who came to participate in the selection of Bird Screen, and they came from all over the country. After a strict screening by Prince Xuan's Mansion, less than one-fifth of them were left. More than ninety.
Xuanyin took a sip of tea, fortunately he was looking at a man, but if he was looking at a woman, wouldn't Yueyue tear him up?
Among these candidates, there are many nephews and nephews of women in various palaces, and King Xuan's cousin is also among them. Due to the convenience of his position, King Xuan made a proper arrangement for his cousin. All of them are mediocre people. In this way, it is easy for Princess Deqing to remember his cousin. As for Concubine Yan Hui, Concubine Zhang Li, and Concubine Li Shun's nephews or confidantes, they are all arranged together, so that they can compete with each other, and no one will be happy. Stronger than anyone.
During the election of the bird screen in the Chang'an Palace, the female relatives also gathered in the imperial garden to discuss the selection of the son-in-law.
"I heard that the Chang'an Palace is very lively. There are many princes from aristocratic families here. I don't know who will be selected." It was Concubine Liu Gui who was speaking. She was wearing a purple fairy dress with gold silk and a flying fairy bun, and her makeup was exquisite. , The eyes are charming, obviously since "being favored", the whole person has become more energetic.
