Wangfu little dumb wife

Chapter 404 What kind of girl does His Highness like? (22 more)
Not long after Song Yuanbao was elected, Song Wei's performance appraisal every three years also came.

This year, because Su Qing, the governor of the left army, went to the Northwest for the first time and won a great victory in the First World War. Emperor Guangxi was very happy, and the assessment standards were lowered. However, those who did not make major mistakes in government affairs within three years were basically promoted.

Song Wei and Xie Zheng were also among them.

Song Wei was promoted to the first rank, from a sixth-rank servant to a fifth-rank bachelor. Not only his status and salary were improved, but his position was also different. He would no longer be responsible for teaching scriptures and reading to Emperor Guangxi.

Xie Zheng was promoted to half a rank, from being a seventh-rank editor to a sixth-rank historian, responsible for compiling history books.

-

After being "forced" to hold a banquet and discuss marriage, Song Yuanbao rested at home for a few days and packed his things back to the palace in early October.

Eunuch Sanbao told him that His Royal Highness was in the Imperial Garden, Song Yuanbao didn't delay for a moment, changed his clothes again, and went straight to find someone.

Song Wei has been promoted to a bachelor, Emperor Guangxi summoned him to give a lecture on history books for the last time today, and by the way invited Zhao Xi to listen together, the place is in the Imperial Garden.

When Song Yuanbao rushed over, his father had already finished speaking and returned to the Hanlin Academy, and Emperor Guangxi drove back to Qianqing Palace, leaving only Zhao Xi sitting in the pavilion enjoying tea and flowers.

Lao Yuan saw Song Yuanbao coming here panting, and Zhao Xi's eyes fell on his face, "Where are you going, Mr. Xie Yuan, in a hurry?"

Hearing the voice, Song Yuanbao was so startled by his "Jie Yuangong" that he stopped abruptly and stopped.

Then he held his chest and panted, "Don't make fun of me, Your Majesty, I still have self-knowledge in front of you."

Zhao Xi pointed to the stone bench opposite with his eyes, "Sit."

Song Yuanbao walked into the pavilion.

Eunuch Mu poured him a cup of tea.

Song Yuanbao ran too fast before, and he was indeed thirsty. He managed to calm down after gulping down a cup of hot tea.

"What do you need from me?" Zhao Xi's voice was faint.

Song Yuanbao sneered, "Didn't I see you in Yutang Palace? I just came this way."

Zhao Xi seemed to have thought of something, and the gaze he cast over him became meaningful, "You slept three times in a row, and you were finally able to get out of your sleep, it's really a skill."

Song Yuanbao couldn't tell whether it was a compliment or a derogation, so he said in a low voice, "Anyway, I didn't embarrass you in the end."

"You didn't embarrass me." Zhao Xi said: "Since your glorious deeds were spread, more than one person has asked me if I treated you harshly in the past year and didn't let you have a good night's sleep. , there are quite a few examinees who couldn’t keep up with their illnesses and fell asleep, but like you, those who slept for three sessions and finally got Jieyuan, this is the only example. If you become an official in the future, I guess you will be famous in history because of this matter. .”

He was still angry for a long time.

Song Yuanba smiled apologetically, "It's also a rare opportunity for me to be lazy. Besides, my performance in the examination room was all based on our usual level in Shangshufang. If this is the case, I will finish the answer within a stick of incense. I got good grades in the end, shouldn't Your Highness praise me?"

Zhao Xi asked back, "What are you praising you for? Complimenting that you have no rules and discipline once you go back, or complimenting you for giving me skills?"

"..." Song Yuanbao: "Yeah, how you want to be punished, you can give me a happy talk."

Zhao Xi turned his gaze away from him, lowered his eyes faintly, and his long eyelashes cast arc-shaped shadows on the eyelids.

After a while, Zhao Xi stood up without saying a word, and walked out of the pavilion.

Song Yuanbao: Even if you are angry, you will never show it on your face, let alone admit it directly. I have never seen such an arrogant person.

After he finished cursing, he immediately stepped up to keep up.

……

There is an ancient locust tree in the imperial garden, and little court ladies often make wishes on it. I don't know if it will work or not, but there are quite a lot of people who believe it.

When Zhao Xi and Song Yuanbao came over one after the other, they saw a girl from afar making a wish with clasped hands, followed by two maids in pink clothes.

She stood with her back facing her, unable to see her face clearly.

Seeing Zhao Xi with sharp eyes, the two little maids were so startled that their expressions changed, and they hurriedly knelt down.

The girl who made a wish piously with her eyes closed didn't notice the movements of the maids, and the sound of making a wish came with the wind.

"Guhuai Guhuai, if you are really effective, please bless my aunt to regain her favor as soon as possible and give birth to a son and a half for the emperor."

The girl who made the wish was Xue Yinhuan.

A few of them had previous convictions for offending His Highness, and the little maid was afraid that Miss Xue would say something treacherous again, so she cleared her throat and said, "My servant, please greet Your Highness." Seeing Song Yuanbao following behind her, she added, " I have seen Young Master Song."

When Xue Yinhuan heard the words "His Royal Highness", his eyebrows twitched, he immediately turned around, lowered his eyes to look at his toes, then knelt straight down, "Ms. Xue Yinhuan, I have seen Your Highness."

He didn't even look at Zhao Xi from the beginning to the end.

With the lessons learned from last time, she deeply realized that these nobles in the palace, especially those at the level of the eldest prince, can avoid them and never provoke them. Just like what my aunt said, you may be unintentional, but if others want to let you You become "intentional" and "deliberately approaching", but it's just a matter of lip service.

Xue Yinhuan suddenly regretted, why did he choose to come to the Royal Garden today?
"Are you from Concubine Qing?" Zhao Xi remembered the name "Yin Huan" and had heard it in the palace of his mother and concubine.

The young prince has passed the period of changing his voice, his voice is like a handful of gems sprinkled on the ice floe, it sounds damn good.

Xue Yinhuan originally wanted to say that he was from Concubine Qing's family, but he swallowed the words, not wanting to give the other party the illusion of flattery, so he just replied lightly: "Exactly."

"What were you doing just now?" Zhao Xi asked again.

"Make, make a wish." Xue Yinhuan felt a little guilty.

Zhao Xi looked at the big ancient locust tree with luxuriant branches and leaves, and brushed his lips lightly, "If you don't find a way to solve the problem yourself, if it is useful to make a wish to the tree, why are there so many concubines living in the cold palace?"

"..." Xue Yinhuan pursed her lips and couldn't answer, she knew it was useless, she just wanted to find a spiritual sustenance, who would have expected to be bumped into by this man.

Right now she has ten mouths, and she can't explain her behavior clearly.

Nodding his head, Xue Yinhuan followed the good advice, "Your Highness has taught you very well."

She suddenly wanted to know what a person who could say such a thing looked like.Kneeling slightly upright, it is convenient to cast the corner of the eye.

Then, she saw a pair of eyes that were as deep as ink, such eyes were so light to cold that people completely forgot to pay attention to his face.

Thinking of how he accidentally kicked the shuttlecock on him that day, Xue Yinhuan suddenly felt that it was not surprising that he would be reprimanded for provoking such a person.

Zhao Xi didn't stay long, and quickly left sideways.

Song Yuanbao followed, and he said after walking a long distance, "I found that girl looked at His Highness a little strangely."

Zhao Xi didn't stop, and looked at the people beside him, "What's so weird?"

Song Yuanbao shook his head, "I can't tell, maybe it's the eyes of admiration, but I can't feel it."

Zhao Xi asked: "Do you like it?"

"..." Song Yuanbao suddenly realized what he was talking about, and kept shaking his head, "Since that girl came for His Highness, I dare not covet her."

Zhao Xi didn't want to talk to him anymore, and when he reached the gate of Yutang Palace, he stepped in directly.

Looking at the young prince's straight back, Song Yuanbao suddenly asked: "What kind of girl does Your Highness like?"

This question seemed to stop Zhao Xi, he paused and turned around.

Song Yuanbao said: "When your Highness chooses the main concubine, side concubine and concubines in the future, apart from the marriage for profit, there must be one of them according to your own preferences, right?"

He was particularly curious about what kind of girl is perfect in the eyes of a person like Zhao Xi who is so outstanding, what kind of girl can make him fall in love with him, and even make him confused.

After waiting for a while, Zhao Xi said, "In the future, there will only be marriages of interest."

Unexpected answer, but it makes sense after thinking about it.

Song Yuanbao shut his mouth.

He thought that Zhao Xi would not continue this kind of boring topic, but he didn't want the other party to suddenly ask, "What about you?"

Song Yuanbao was taken aback for a moment, and said truthfully, "I...I like good-looking people."

"shallow!"

Song Yuanbao thought it didn't matter, "I'm just an ordinary person, what do I need so much inside, I'm good-looking, and I'm filial to my parents, I think it's pretty good."

Glancing at Zhao Xi, Song Yuanbao said, "Don't tell me that your royal family doesn't care about their faces when picking concubines. Can you let me choose those crooked concubines?"

Zhao Xi: "..."

The little bastard's nonsense is always one set.
