Chapter 62
The Chrysanthemum Appreciation Banquet is held in the imperial garden, with male and female seats separated by screens.

Both the princess and the prince have two companions, and the princess companion is just a playmate to accompany the princess in reading.

The prince's accompanying reading is much more complicated. To put it bluntly, it is to cultivate their confidantes. Even the family behind them is almost the prince's power. If the prince can ascend the throne in the future, their future will be absolutely magnanimous.

But if the succession fails, it's okay for the new emperor to be open-minded, but I'm afraid that the new emperor will be narrow-minded and find a wrong place to demote the family in the wrong team.

Therefore, most of the prince's maternal ancestral family chose to accompany them, and other families just accompanied them.

This time is different, the eldest prince and eldest princess have no natal families, and the families without daughters in the palace are ready to move, wanting to take a chance on Shen Juanheng.

Empress Qi sat on the highest position, looking at those people who were about to move with disdain.

Emperor Xuan of Jin only told Queen Qi about the news of the draft, and it hasn't spread out yet. If it gets out, I'm afraid there will be a large wave of people silenced for this selection.

The prince's companions valued martial arts and learning, and if they were of the right age, there were only a few families, Yun Yushi's second son Yun Zekai, and General Zhongwu's younger son Liu Jiexi were among them.

Mrs. Yun gave birth to three sons and one daughter in total. The eldest son is too old and does not meet the conditions for choosing a companion. The second son is Yun Zekai, who is six years old this year and is the same age as Shen Junheng. The youngest son and Yun Youzheng are twins. , five years old this year.

Shen Juanheng rolled his eyes and chose Yun Zekai and Liu Jiexi.

For the princess, Shen Chang'an chose Lin Wanyi. Although she was ten years old this year, but with the will of Emperor Xuan of Jin, no one dared to question her.

Concubine Yan chose Shen Xiuying's accompanying readers for her. One was the niece of Concubine Yan's family, and the other was a girl from her sister-in-law's family, both of whom were descendants.

Those who were not selected regretted that Shen Changan only chose a companion, but if he didn't choose, they couldn't help it.

Accompanied by their respective princes and princesses to live in their residences, if there is no important matter, they will stay in the residences, take a day off every ten days, and go home on the rest day.

The princess and her companions mainly study three aspects: etiquette, women's morality and culture.

Not to mention etiquette and women's morality, cultural aspects mainly include reading and writing, philosophy, music and dancing.

Different from the books that the prince studied, the princess mainly studied a series of books including "Gulie Nu Biography", "Nv Commandments", "Nv Xiao Jing", "Nv Analects", "Nv Ze" and "Feng Lou New Commandments". series of books.

There are special nuns and female teachers in the palace to teach, mainly to teach Shen Xiuying and her two companions. Shen Changan needs time to make incense, and she has shown the ability of photographic memory. Learned from her.

Although Lin Wanyi is blind, she is talented and intelligent. Old General Lin invited famous teachers for her. She has learned almost all these books, and even read the Four Books and Five Classics that men have learned.

Etiquette is also very good. Lin Wanyi's mother is the princess of Prince Li's Mansion. Prince Li is the half-brother of Emperor Jin Xuan. He is honest and does not love power. He has always lived in the fief with his wife and children.

When Lin Wanyi's mother got married, there was a nanny who taught etiquette in the palace in the dowry given by her natal family. After she died of dystocia, the nanny taught Lin Wanyi etiquette all the time.

The teaching place is in Fengyang Palace, Shen Changan and Lin Wanyi occasionally go over to check in and ask the mother and wife questions, after all, there is no end to learning.

The rest of the time is completely free, which makes elementary school scumbag Shen Xiuying very envious.

Wei Guiren, who lost her mother's gu, was very annoyed. If she could not complete the task assigned by the national teacher, even if she returned to the Northern Wei Dynasty, she would not be able to have the status of a princess.

She frequently went to the place where the mother gu was lost, hoping to get some clues.

"The servant greets the nobleman. I don't know what the nobleman is doing near Qiwu Palace?"

The people in Qiwu Palace thought that Mrs. Wei was just here to enjoy the flowers, so they paid a little attention to her, but they didn't pay much attention to her. It was not until the third time when they saw Mrs. Wei that someone reported to Xiao Dezi.

This woman is definitely going to play tricks, report it to Eunuch De to receive a reward!

Wei Guiren was frightened for a moment, looked up and saw that she was a little virtuous son, with both new and old grudges, she opened her mouth and scolded: "My little master is doing things, how can you, an eunuch, talk?!"

Xiao Dezi was not annoyed, and smiled and said: "My lord, you don't know, this area belongs to Qiwu Palace, our eldest princess doesn't like others to set foot on the grounds of Qiwu Palace, you see, are you going back to the palace by yourself, or the slaves are looking for it?" Someone take you back?"

The word "send" is extremely heavy, and it is not just as simple as sending.

Wei Guiren's face turned pale, and he remembered the process of her being sent to Empress Qi that night. If she hadn't been pregnant, those servants would have dragged her there!

Xiao Dezi didn't urge her, and let her face change back and forth, as if changing faces in a Beijing opera.

Wei Guiren gritted his teeth, took a look at Xiao Dezi with resentment, and said arrogantly before leaving: "This young master is pregnant with a dragon fetus, if there is a slight mistake, this young master will definitely speak for you, an eunuch, in front of the emperor." Two sentences!"

Who wouldn't say harsh words?But no smart person would speak harshly.

Xiao Dezi smirked and said: "My lord, please go slowly, the servant is still going to deliver incense pills to the three princes and Princess Kangping, so I won't send you."

What is it to be pregnant with a dragon fetus?Being born is considered a skill, but there are five serious sons and daughters in this palace!

Wei Guiren staggered and almost sprained her foot, she didn't say anything, and accelerated the speed of her feet.

Xiao Dezi curled his lips in disdain, and taught Xiao Tingzi: "See, there are some people who just can't recognize the reality."

"Although we are eunuchs, we are also eunuchs living in Wu Palace. The serious master hasn't said anything yet, but this featherless pheasant is chirping non-stop, which is annoying!"

Xiao Tingzi is Xiao Dezi's apprentice, and he always takes him by his side when doing things.

Xiao Tingzi echoed: "Master is right, a pheasant is no match for a phoenix, and if it loses its bright hair, it can only be stewed in a pot of chicken soup."

Xiao Dezi laughed, "Could it be that you are greedy? Hurry up tomorrow and let the small kitchen stew a chicken to satisfy your gluttony!"

Xiao Tingzi hurriedly bowed to thank him, he changed his mind, leaned into Xiao Dezi's ear and said: "Master, the master of the nobleman is precious, why don't you go to the imperial dining room and ask the imperial dining room to cook a few more cups of chicken soup for the nobleman?"

Mr. Wei Gui is stupid, if you serve chicken soup a few more times, you will always understand the deep meaning of it, right?

Xiao Dezi laughed and scolded him twice as "a cramped ghost", and let him go, and gave him a few words of advice before leaving.

"Go clearly, there is no need to hide and hide. If someone asks, just say that our eldest princess is sorry for the hardship of the nobleman's pregnancy, and specially instructed the imperial dining room."

Xiao Dezi went back humming a ditty. He had a booklet, which would record all the big and small things that happened. The master would just look through them when the time came. There was no need to trouble the master for such trivial matters.
