Chapter 372

Although Xiao iron tree and Xiao copper tree were separated from the general's house, they didn't complain.

Ye Zi has treated them very well by arranging them like this.

Besides, ye Xiaoxian usually has delicious food at home, and she will send someone to send them. Ye didn't calculate with them the money for business in the early stage.

……

After arranging the big room and the third room, ye Xiaoxian began to arrange Xiao Baofeng.

When Xiao Baofeng arrived in the capital, he naturally wanted to continue reading.

Ye Xiaoxian asks Xiao Baoshan to find a master for Xiao Baofeng. She must find a good one.

Xiao Baoshan is now famous. Many scholars respect him very much. When they hear that he wants to find a master for his brother, suddenly, some old scholars who have lived in seclusion for many years came out and said they want to take Xiao Baofeng as an apprentice and teach him well.

Finally, Xiao Baoshan chose an old academician who used to be in charge of Hanlin.

So Xiao Baofeng went on his third study trip.

Xiao Baofeng seems to have been used to separation. He can bear the pain of reading, and the pain of separation is natural. After finding the master, he packed his bags and left with the carriage with his baggage.

When Li Hongmei sent Xiao Baofeng out, there were two lines of tears in the corners of her eyes.

Ye Xiaoxian took the two children and asked Li Hongmei, "Mom, don't you want to give up Baofeng?"

Li Hongmei said, "no, alas, I've been used to separation for so many years."

Ye Xiaoxian smiled and said, "are you still crying? You know, Baofeng is studying. If he learns well in the future, he can be a civil servant. Then there will be two ministers in our family."

"I know, so I'm excited!" Li Hongmei wiped the corners of her eyes and said, "I had a hard life before, and then I worked hard to raise the children. I just wanted them to grow up in peace. I never thought that the children would be officials in the future. You say, how much good have I done in my previous life to get such a return?"

Hearing this, ye Xiaoxian couldn't help laughing again.

……

After Li Chengru became emperor, trouble happened one after another.

Since ancient times, emperors have had to live in three palaces and six courtyards, but Li Chengru has not been in the capital these years and is used to idling. At this time, he has no imperial concubine.

Although there are side concubines in the family, Li Chengru has no feelings with them. In addition, Li Chengru was not favored before, so these women have no great background and the family foundation is not deep.

Now there is an emperor, but there is no queen. Li Chengru can bear it, but the ministers can't. therefore, many ministers want to find a draft for Li Chengru.

Li Chengru felt very headache about this matter.

So he simply called Xiao Baoshan and ye Xiaoxian into the palace.

Ye Xiaoxian went to the palace again.

The palace has changed a lot now.

It's summer now. There are flowers everywhere. The palace maids and eunuchs are busy inside. It's a scene of prosperity.

Seeing these familiar buildings, ye Xiaoxian unconsciously remembered the former empress dowager.

Xiao Baoshan saw that ye Xiaoxian seemed a little depressed. He guessed what was on her mind, so he took her hand and put her hand in his own palm.

Ye Xiaoxian smiled at him: "I'm fine, just..."

Xiao Baoshan said, "I understand."

"Well, just understand. Alas, things in the palace are hard to say and change. Now that Li Chengru has become the emperor, I hope he can continue to be the emperor until he is old and has children to succeed."

Xiao Baoshan smiled: "the Holy Lord called us into the palace today. Maybe he just wanted to talk to us about his children."

“……”

At the emperor's bedroom, Xiao Baoshan and ye Xiaoxian greet Li Chengru.

Li Chengru immediately said to them, "excuse me. You two are so familiar with me. Sit down and talk."

Then they asked people to pour tea and snacks.

Ye Xiaoxian took a sip of the exquisite tea cup and felt that the tea flavor was very familiar. She had drunk it in the Empress Dowager's bedroom before.

Ye Xiaoxian observes Li Chengru again.

When Li Chengru became emperor, he was less rebellious, more stable, and more profound in his eyebrows.

She couldn't help laughing: "Your Majesty has changed a lot now."

"Oh? How has it become?" Asked Li Chengru.

"Nature is the appearance of Ming Jun." Ye Xiaoxian smiled.

Li Chengru also laughed: "just make fun of me. I don't blame you."

Ye Xiaoxian asked, "listen to Baoshan, you are in some trouble now, so you want to call us into the palace and give you some reference?"

Li Chengru asked the eunuch to bring some portraits, and then handed them to Ye Xiaoxian: "look."

Ye Xiaoxian looked over and saw that all the above were beautiful women, and there were also marks, such as the eldest lady of XX family, di Chu, these words.

Ye Xiaoxian said with a smile, "this is to choose... The imperial concubine?"

Li Chengru said, "I can't choose a woman, so please come here and choose one for me."

"Me?" Ye Xiaoxian said, "Your Majesty, this is your choice of concubines. Naturally, you want to choose what you like, but you let me choose. What I choose at that time doesn't suit you. Haven't I become a sinner for thousands of years?"

"It's not that serious!" Li Chengru also said, "I won't choose you. You are a woman. Your vision of women is naturally accurate. Just choose a virtuous one who can assist me. There are not so many things."

"But I haven't seen them either. How can I choose these portraits alone?" Ye Xiaoxian said.

Li Chengru said, "on the draft day, you enter the palace and sit on my side. If you are satisfied, give me a cough."

"Cough..." Ye Xiaoxian almost took a sip of tea.

Is that really good?

Li Chengru looked at Ye Xiaoxian seriously and said, "I'm serious."

Ye Xiaoxian was embarrassed and looked at xiaobaoshan again.

Xiao Baoshan is usually a stuffy gourd, but now he said a special thunder sentence: "in fact, I also believe in your vision. The selected concubine should not only have power in her mother's family, but also be a person who can master the world. I only believe in your vision."

Ye Xiaoxian: "

……

The draft day is set in a month.

Ye Xiaoxian entered the palace as promised and sat next to Li Chengru with a female official.

The female officer was responsible for checking the identity information, while ye Xiaoxian helped with the reference. There was a female officer in front of him who was responsible for cross examination.

Ye Xiaoxian attached great importance to the draft. She thought that she must choose several concubines for Li Chengru. These concubines must be atmospheric, not loving, tolerant and polite.

She is a little guilty about knowing books and being polite. After all, she doesn't read much by herself. There must be no way to consider this convenience.

However, she thinks she is accurate in looking at people. At least she will see which are green tea and which are white lotus.

As a result, when the draft really began, ye Xiaoxian was dazzled.

Unless some people are particularly capricious or proud, she thinks everything else is good.

Most of the young ladies are well-educated. When they go outside, they look dignified and virtuous. They are beautiful, but they make ye Xiaoxian sad.

Fortunately, she prepared a lot of questions in advance.
