The black-bellied highness, the evil concubine

Chapter 131 Swing
Before the [-]th day of December arrived, discussions about the future crown princess were already very hot in Xianling City. Of course, the most popular person was Murong Yue, who was already well-known in the city. .

It turns out that Princess Qingxia has always been devoted to the crown prince, no wonder she hasn't allowed anyone else to marry her for so many years.

These two people, no matter your talent or appearance, are really a good match.

Besides Murong Yue, Leng Qianxue is also a popular candidate.

Everyone felt that the candidate for the crown princess should be among these two.

However, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has always had a temperament different from ordinary people, and it is absolutely possible that he will not be allowed to pick a woman that they have never thought of.

Therefore, until the last moment, as long as the woman on the roster, it is still possible to become the crown princess.

When the city was busy choosing a concubine for the prince, there were many strangers in Xianling City. Although some people thought it was strange, but think about it, this year is approaching. Or if there were too many people joining in the fun, it was normal, and everyone didn't take it seriously.

In addition to those unfamiliar faces, several veterans who hadn't been in Xianling City for many years also suddenly returned to the city. They went directly to the Beitang General's Mansion as soon as they entered the city.

Some people with a little seniority in General Beitang's mansion can still recognize these veterans. They are all generals under the command of General Murong, and they are still quite prestigious in the court, just because they fought against the rebellion back then. All of them suffered some injuries, and the fact that the general died in battle hit them too hard, and they gradually became disheartened. After supporting Beitang Hu to secure the position of the general , They retired and returned to their hometowns one after another. In the blink of an eye, four or five years have passed.

After being invited into the General's Mansion, Beitang Hu personally came out to greet these veterans.

"See General!"

As soon as Beitang Hu entered the room, the six veterans knelt down and saluted him.

Beitang Hu hurriedly helped them up one by one, and respectfully said: "Uncles, don't do this, I accept your obeisance, isn't this an insult to me?"

Although these six veterans are subordinates of Great General Murong, they used to be called brothers and sisters. Beitang Hu is the adopted son of Murong's family, so they are still called 'uncles' on weekdays.

Beitanghu was taken back as his adoptive son by General Murong at the age of ten. It can be said that these six veterans watched him grow up. They are also very pleased that he can achieve such achievements now, and they also feel that they are worthy of him. Some generals.

"I haven't seen you for many years, how are the uncles?" Bei Tanghu asked with concern after everyone was seated.

In fact, these years, even though the six of them were far away from the imperial capital, Beitang Hu still did not forget them, and often sent money or their favorite things to their hometowns. Thanks to him, they had a wonderful life these years worry free.

Apart from them, all the old people under General Murong's command also received a lot of care from him, and everyone treated him like a young master.

Qi Yue, the eldest brother among the six, replied: "Very good, you are taking care of us, the general, and we are doing well!"

"To tell the truth, the general, we came here this time mainly to know if there is any news about the young master and young lady in these years?" Qi Yue asked bluntly after looking at the other brothers.

General Murong had only one son and one daughter, Murong Yi and Murong Qixue, after that day, there was no news about the two of them, these veterans deeply blamed themselves and felt sorry for General Murong.

Beitang Hu's face darkened slightly, he frowned and shook his head, "No!"

"That's right, if there is some news, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will not want to marry the Crown Princess. Hey, it's just that we old guys don't give up!" Lin Yidao, who was beside Qi Yue, sighed.

"Uncle Lin, don't worry, whether there is any news or not, I will keep looking for it!" Murong Yi said firmly.

With his words, everyone was relieved.

I only hope that in my lifetime, I can see the young master and the young lady again, so that they will have the face to see the general and madam after they enter the Nine Springs!

"I heard that the crown prince chose the crown princess this time, and Miss Tang also participated?" Qi Yue asked gently.

Beitang Hu nodded.

It was only later that he found out about Murong Yue signing up for the crown princess election. He knew that Murong Yue had always been somewhat different from Zhuge Jingyao, but Zhuge Jingyao must have done it unintentionally. He didn't expect her to go this time. Candidacy.

However, since it was her own choice, Beitang Hu would not interfere with her.

Another veteran said: "Miss Tang is also surnamed Murong, if she can become the crown princess, it will be a consolation to miss!"

For them, it is much more acceptable for Murong Yue to be the crown princess than others.

After all, that position originally belonged to Miss Murong.

"General, who do you think His Royal Highness will choose?" Lin Yidao asked aloud.

Beitang Hu shook his head and said: "You know the prince's temperament, I can guess it, but according to the current situation, one of Yue'er's biggest competitors is the talented doctor Leng Qianxue, and the other is the former Taifu Yu. Old granddaughter."

A person who once saved the prince's life is naturally different from others.

And the other one, Mr. Yu is the emperor's mentor, and His Majesty also respects him very much. If His Majesty's face is hindered, His Highness the Crown Prince might choose her.

Since Murong Yue went to run for the election, of course Beitang Hu wanted to help her. In the past few days, he had scouted out all the women on the roster.

"Several uncles will stay in the general's mansion for a few more days this time, and we can also have a good recap. The city has changed a lot in the past few years. I will take the uncles out for a walk another day. Anyway, the day when I leave the election of the princess There are not many days left, and on that day, we will know the result!" Knowing that Qi Yue and the others were always concerned about the selection of the crown princess, he simply took the initiative to keep them.

Qi Yue and the others also nodded in agreement.

Although General Murong's Mansion has been lonely for eight full years, its influence is still not inferior to that of the past. General Murong and the people under his command have now become higher in official positions. Most of them dare not forget the kindness of the past of.

This was also one of the reasons why Murong Yi didn't want to appear in the sight of everyone again, those people had too high expectations of him as a son, and he didn't want to live that kind of life at all.

Rather than being watched by everyone under the sun, it is better to live in the dark and be a person that no one can see.

On December [-]th, Wen Ran was sent by Zhuge Jingyao to the Murong Mansion, and she had to stay here for two days to help the Crown Prince take good care of all the flowers and plants here.

According to the words of the crown prince: "I don't worry about handing it over to others!"

Only when Wen Ran works with his own hands, can His Royal Highness feel at ease!

In such a cold weather, those flowers and plants can survive. Wen Ran really didn't expect that one day she would be accompanied by these flowers and plants day and night. If I knew it, I wouldn't dislike the love and protection of flowers like the third senior brother and fourth senior sister. up.

December [-]th was Miss Murong's birthday, Zhuge Jingyao obviously didn't forget it, so Wen Ran was specially asked to take care of this place, as if preparing to celebrate Miss Murong's birthday.

I really don't know what to say about this prince, he is so worried, why did he choose to choose a concubine on that day?
I really don't understand!
I heard that Miss Murong is a very nostalgic girl. Mrs. Murong made her a palm-sized doll before, and she could keep it by her side all the time. She never discarded it for several years, and she almost lost it once. He was so anxious that he cried, but fortunately Zhuge Jingyao and Murong Yi found him back together, and the little crying bag stopped his tears.

Therefore, many things in the Murong Mansion, Zhuge Jingyao made people change as much as they could.

In fact, when they were young, Zhuge Jingyao would still bully Murong Qixue from time to time, but he also liked that little girl from the bottom of his heart who was obviously afraid of him but wanted to stay by his side all the time.

Wen Ran randomly found a room to stay for two days. When night fell and the Murong Mansion was empty, Wen Ran couldn't help wandering around in Murong Mansion.

This is not the first time Wen Ran has come here. She has been here many times with His Royal Highness, but every time she comes and goes in a hurry, even if she stays, she just stays by Zhuge Jingyao's side. She didn't take a good look at this Murong Mansion. Today is a rare opportunity. Anyway, it's a long night and she has plenty of time.

This Murong Mansion is not big, but it is not small either. If it is a leisurely walk, it will take half an hour, let alone stop and go.

Wen Ran walked, and unknowingly came to a remote place in the backyard. It seems that no one has been there for a long time, and it seems that it has been forgotten. Those who are responsible for cleaning the Murong Mansion must also feel that this place is It's useless, so ignore it.

In the winter, the deserted weeds in the courtyard were already dilapidated, only the two wintersweet plants were still alive and strong. The fragrance of the white plums, coupled with the little snow at night, made Wen Ran stop in his tracks.

Unexpectedly, there is such a place here, but Wen Ran unexpectedly likes it inexplicably.

Going a little further, two swings are hung under the tall trees on both sides. There is a red brocade ribbon mixed between the ropes on the swing on the left, but it is not obvious after a long time.

In Wen Ran's memory, she seems to have never made a swing, but when she saw and touched the swing, she felt a familiar feeling. Without thinking too much, she took a handkerchief and scattered the dust slightly , she sat on the already somewhat dilapidated swing.

Fortunately, this swing is still strong.

The rope it uses, as well as the wood, are of the highest quality, and after all these years of weathering and weathering, it still allows a person to sit in peace.

Holding the ropes on both sides with both hands, with a light tap on the toes, Wen Ran swayed backwards. How can I say this feeling, Wen Ran feels better than the feeling of flying with his own lightness kung fu!

Zhuge Jingyao said that she was innocent, so she really had a childlike innocence. Under the force, the swing became higher and higher, and her indifferent face unconsciously showed a little more innocent smile.

From now on, His Highness might as well let her come to this Murong Mansion every day, it would be a good job to be able to play on the swing secretly by oneself.

Wen Ran was happily swinging on the swing, but didn't notice for a while that there were already two figures in the courtyard.
