The Way of Favors

???? In the afternoon of the next day, Brother Ju led the two younger sisters back to the palace.

Brother Bi was called to the Hall of Chongzheng by Xu Jin. Axuan and Apei didn't see his mother all night, thinking about it, and entered Fengyi Palace one after the other.

Fu Rong was leaning on the couch, saw the two baby girls, smiled and asked them: "Is grandma fun at home?"

"Fun!" Axuan first helped her sister on the couch, and then she climbed up, leaning on her mother's side with her sister, and her little hand touched her mother's belly while excitedly talking about the grandmother's house.

"Huchen quarreled with Brother Erlang. In the morning, Huchen said that he would put black and white impermanence and bite Brother Erlang. When the third uncle heard it, he said that his second uncle likes black and white impermanence. , I quarreled with Uncle San, and was glared by my aunt."

Fu couldn't help laughing.

Wu Baiqi didn't throw the two little snakes. They knew it a long time ago. Since the younger sister is not afraid, they have nothing to say. Fu You was bad enough, Huchen really sent the black and white impermanence to his brother, and his brother dared to cook the stew. My sister indulged Wu Baiqi, but my brother kept seeing Wu Baiqi uncomfortable.

"I'm still in the bridal chamber." A Pei smiled and said, "I hide in the cabinet, and my sister hides under the bed."

Fu Rong smiled and touched her daughter's head, "Did you get caught by your second uncle?"

"The second uncle didn't find me!" A Xuan said triumphantly, "I was lying under the bed. After Sister Yuanyuan climbed out, the second uncle thought that there was no one underneath, and then they got a cave. I heard and saw it. That's it!" Grandma and aunts didn't allow her to tell others, but the mother is not someone else, and Axuan will tell her any secrets.

Fu Rong was a bit hot, curious about what her daughter had heard, and felt that she shouldn't say this.

She is still thinking about how to persuade her daughter to forget this. A Xuan has already learned with a smile, "Don’t cry, it won’t hurt for a while..."

The sound was crisp with a thief laugh.

Apei smiled foolishly.

Axuan also laughed, touched her mother's belly, and muttered like to herself: "Later, my brother stumbled, I'm just coaxing my brother."

Fu Rong's head was as big as a fight. He was shocked that his elder brother would talk to the second princess like that, and his daughter's thoughts were also shocked, so he hurriedly corrected him softly: "Axuan heard the mother said that my brother is not so coaxing, only the groom can coax the bride like that , We can only call the younger brother's name, or just the younger brother."

Axuan blinked blankly, "Only the bridegroom can be a darling?"

Fu Rong nodded solemnly.

Apei asked curiously: "When the father and the mother got married, did the father call the mother like this?"

The little girl doesn’t have the cleverness of her sister, but she often asks questions that make it difficult for adults to answer. Fu Rong forgot how Xu Jin called her the night of her wedding. It was really torturous at the time. I only knew it hurts, and I just wanted to stamp him. , How can you be in the mood to hear what he shouted? But since she wants to coax her daughter, of course she has to continue to lie, and she nodded and said: "Yes, the father is also called a mother, now Axuan Apei, remember it, and don't call it wrong when coaxing your brother in the future."

Axuan nodded obediently.

Fu Rong continued to teach her daughter, "The bridal chamber is the secret of the second uncle and aunt. Axuan will stop telling others. If you tell them, they will laugh at the second uncle and aunt in private. Does Axuan want her aunt to be laughed at? ?"

"Don't let them laugh at Auntie!" A Xuan said angrily.

Fu Rong was relieved that her daughter liked her aunt, so she would definitely not say anything.

But in the evening, Fu Rong couldn't help but muttered to Xu Jin, "I didn't want to talk to Fuhui before seeing my second brother. I didn't want to talk as much when I got married. As expected, the men looked different behind their backs. "

Xu Jin has been suffocating her fire since she became pregnant. At this time, hearing her mention the second princess Fu Chen’s room, it was like reading a booklet together, rubbing her punishingly while rubbing against her, "Before going to bed. Saying this, you deliberately don't want me to sleep, don't you?"

Fu Rong was indeed deliberate, biting his lip and smirking, and stretched out his hand.

Xu Jin was flattered, and then turned passive into active.

Couple you serve me first, and I will serve you again, and both are satisfied in the end.

After the wiping, Xu Jin hugged Fu Rong and said, "The peony flower is about to bloom again. Let's post a post to those ladies in Beijing. You and your mother will choose a good one for the sixth brother. The sixth brother is married, and so am I. It's a matter of mind."

Noble lady...

Fu Rong felt sore in his heart, sighed, and shook his hand and said, "I still remember when I married the emperor that year, almost ten years have passed in a blink of an eye. Does the emperor think I am old? Do you want to pick a few fifteen A six-year-old girl fills the harem?"

"Brother Wei is eight years old, are you still telling me about this?" Xu Jin bit her ear, knowing that she likes to think about her after pregnancy, but instead held her hand with a firm and gentle voice, "In my eyes, thick Nong is always the best looking, and no one can compare to you. I have the best Nong, what else do others do?"

Fu Rong loved to listen. He couldn't hear enough, so he kissed him, leaned on his strong chest and fell asleep, having a good night's dream.

In a blink of an eye came the day to choose the concubine for the pregnant king Xu Hao.

The peony garden was colorful, and the ladies gathered in groups to admire the flowers. Sitting in the pavilion with the queen mother, Fu Rong and the queen mother looked at the beauties outside, feeling dazzling.

"I think all of them are good." The queen mother said with emotion.

Fu Rong nodded and glanced over the little girls at will. They are all unfamiliar faces, and they are all ladies in the capital. I believe there are no stupid ones. Since they are here, they will definitely put away their shortcomings and show the best to her and the Queen Mother. But they can’t help it. Xu Hao doesn’t take the initiative. The choice of the concubine can only rely on luck. If you are lucky, you can pick him a suitable one. The young couple may really get there. With bad luck, the new princess cannot be replaced. Cui Wan's position in Xu Hao's heart is the same bed with different dreams.

"Mother!" Axuan suddenly ran out of a cluster of flowers, her big eyes sparkling, as if something new had happened.

Fu Rong frowned in surprise. When her daughter came in, she called her to help her wipe her sweat, and said in a strange way: "Isn't you playing with your sixth uncle? Why are you here?" Xu Jin also called in Xu Wei today. The palace is over, and only after they have selected a few outstanding candidates, let Xu Hao pick one in person. Axuan and Apei have always liked Uncle Six, and they have leaned in early.

"Father asked me to show Uncle Liu to see Peony." A Xuan pointed to a flower bush in the distance, "Uncle Liu refused to come over, so he took me over there, mother, I saw someone sitting on a rock and watching. Flower, a butterfly fell on her head, I told her she ignored me, mother knows why?"

Fu Rong's thoughts turned. Could it be that the girl found out that Xu Hao was trying to catch him?

Axuan smiled when she finished saying, "She fell asleep, and I yelled twice but she didn't hear it. I walked up to her and yelled. She was startled, she still had saliva in the corner of her mouth, and then she saw her I ran away, blushing."

Fu Rong was stunned. The water was running. It seemed that the girl was really asleep...

"Her heart is wide enough." The queen mother smiled and praised.

Fu Rong looked at her mother-in-law, and saw a sincere smile finally appeared on her face, she was also relieved. In this case, Xu Hao had to marry a girl with a good heart, otherwise, after entering the door, he would care about a dead person every day, and it would be strange to live a good life.

"Axuan still remember what that girl looks like?" Fu Rong asked his daughter with a smile.

Axuan scratched her head and said to the people outside the pavilion: "She is wearing a red skirt..."

Fu Rong looked outside. Almost all the beauties wore red skirts with different shades.

She told Mei Xiang to call all the ladies over, just like she had participated in the election of the concubine back then, the four entered the pavilion together, and let her daughter identify them.

Axuan has a good memory and really made her recognize it. She pointed to a girl in a red jacket who had just walked in and shouted excitedly: "Mother, it's her, she fell asleep sitting on the rock! She was drooling! "

Queen Mother Fu Rong looked over together.

The girl blushed so much that she was almost past the pink peony outside, and stiffened in front of the pavilion with her head lowered, her small hands gripping her sleeves nervously.

Fu Rong first looked at her figure. She was taller than her, with a bulging chest and a slender waist. The wind blew over her skirt, revealing a pair of small embroidered shoes.

"Raise your head." Fu Rongrou said.

The girl bit her lip and slowly raised her head.

When Fu Rong looked again, he saw that the little girl had watery apricot eyes, flushed apple faces, and her cheeks were a little plump, pretty good-looking, but not amazingly beautiful, but she felt charming and sweet. At this time, because of the loss of face, the girl's long eyelashes trembled and her teeth bit her lips, especially inviting love.

When I asked, I realized that it was the youngest granddaughter of Mr. Dong, a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, who was just fifteen this year.

Fu Rong looked at her mother-in-law, and the queen mother nodded with a smile.

Before lunch, Fu Rong sent the portraits of Miss Dong and three other beauties to the Chongzheng Hall.

Xu Jin didn’t see it, so he directly asked Father Wen to hand over the portrait to Xu Hao, “This was picked out by my mother and your fourth sister-in-law. Look, if you like one, let her be the princess, you all like it, one is the princess, the others are Concubine room."

Xu Hao smiled bitterly, and his elder brother was a queen himself, so it would be very kind to give him away.

But since he agreed long ago, he didn't hesitate anymore, and honestly accepted the portrait. The first three were all swept over at random. Seeing the fourth one, Xu Ye was taken aback, and the scene he saw in the Peony Garden came to mind. Axuan leaned over and called for someone. The girl woke up. She blushed when she heard Axuan's jokes that she drooled. She peeked around, rubbing her saliva and told Axuan not to say anything, Axuan pointed to where he was hiding and called six. Uncle, the girl just ran away...

"Just her." He said lightly.

Xu Jin only looked at the few portraits and found that the sixth brother had chosen the most unusual appearance, and he didn't like it.

After I went back, I complained to Fu Rong, "I picked the ugliest one to perfuse me."

Fu Rong understood who Xu Hao had chosen when he heard it. He smiled and mentioned the Peony Garden to him, "Don't worry, the emperor, this is fate."

Xu Jin was dubious, and Qin Tianjian sent auspicious days over. He chose September. At that time, Fu Rong was out of confinement early, which was suitable for lively.

After selecting the new princess for the sixth brother, Xu Jin devoted himself to serving Fu Rong, who had a growing belly. After a thunderstorm in June, Fu Rongshun Shunli gave birth to another fat boy, named Luo Geer. When the next year Luo Luo passed his first birthday, good news came from Jingyang Hou Mansion and Huai Wang Mansion at the same time.

Finally there are nephews and nieces, and the two emperors and queens laughed from ear to ear.
