A few days later, Bai Gui returned to Beijing to report on his work.
Also arriving in Beijing was his wife Ruan.
Of course, the protagonist is his eldest daughter.
Her maiden name is Bai Li.
Bai Gui was ceremoniously received by Zhu Qiyu in the Hall of Qianqing. He was accompanied by the Chief Minister of the Cabinet, Chen Xun, the Minister of Household Affairs, the Assistant Minister of the Cabinet, Wang Wen, the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, the Assistant Minister of the Cabinet, Shang Ren, Minister of Taichang Temple, and Yu Qian, the Minister of the Ministry of War. .
When the time comes for the wedding process, it will be these bosses who will provide the prince with matchmaking advice and wedding gifts.
On the other side, Mrs. Ruan took her daughter Bai Li to Kunning Palace to pay her respects to Queen Hang.
Kunning Palace.
Empress Hang held her beloved kitten in her arms and smiled at the mother and daughter who were saluting: "Get up without any ceremony."
Ruan's family has not yet received her royal decree.
After today, as long as the white carp can get into his eyes, his destiny will be fulfilled.
Queen Hang had been seriously ill and was not in good spirits. Today she was choosing a wife for her son. She was in a good mood and smiled, "I feel tired standing and talking. Please give me a seat."
After the mother and daughter sat down, Queen Hang took a look at Mrs. Ruan first.
Ruan lowered his head and was very polite.
At first glance, she looks like a lady from a scholarly family.
Queen Hang nodded secretly. Bai Gui was a scholar, and Ruan was from a scholarly family. With such a tutor, Bai Li would be good at it. She looked at the little girl and asked, "Tell me, how old are you?"
After Xu Shi explained it, Bai Li dared to raise his head and said, "Return to your Majesty, my daughter is eight years old."
Queen Hang said something in her heart.
What a beautifully carved porcelain doll!
In this dynasty, boys and girls alike shaved their heads and usually tied their hair after the age of fifteen, but girls grew their hair earlier. Otherwise, in their golden years, what else would they do with a golden hairpin?
Bai Li is only eight years old. He has not shaved his head and has long hair.
Perhaps because Ruan is a girl from the south of the Yangtze River, Bai Li wore a double-snail bun that is common among girls from the south of the Yangtze River.
There is some baby fat on the face.
She has exquisite facial features, a small face with pink cheeks, rosy and delicate white skin, a standard oval face, a pair of peach blossom eyes, curved eyelashes, black and white eyes, watery, and as transparent as a mountain lake.
Queen Hang's heart suddenly tightened again.
There is a very thin light cyan beauty mark in the corner of Bai Li's eye, which makes the eight-year-old girl look a little extra stunning.
Peach blossom eyes, beauty spots...
A straight eye is charming, a sideways eye is charming.
What is meant is that there is a phoenix in the sky and a white carp in the world.
this……
Queen Hang retreated in her heart.
Bai Li is beautiful. Whether from the perspective of a man or a woman, she is a beauty. She may even be a beauty like Xu Miaojin in the early period of this dynasty.
And he comes from a scholarly family, so his literacy is naturally very good.
But just this beauty mark...
Ruined the scenery.
It’s not that it’s not good-looking, on the contrary, it’s this beauty mark that makes Bai Li’s beauty stand out.
Somewhat charming!
Queen Hang had seen many women in the harem. Concubine Tang, who was doted on by her husband, was not necessarily beautiful, but she was seductive and coquettish. As for Li Xi'er, she was a goblin who ate people without spitting out their bones.
But none of them are as stunning as Bai Li's beauty mark.
The white carp will grow up to be beautiful in the future, but if it develops a coquettish and watery nature, can that lecherous little brat of mine be able to control it?
It is a shame that the king will not come to court early from now on.
All have come.
You can't break off a marriage just by looking at it.
Queen Hang smiled and asked: "Bai Li, do you like reading on weekdays?"
Bai Li immediately said: "If you say it back to me, I like it."
Queen Hang asked again: "What books have you read?"
Bai Li tilted his head, thought for a while, and said in a crisp voice, "After learning to read with my mother, I read some Three Character Classics, the Book of Rites, and the like, and also wanted to read policy essays. My mother said that girls don't need to take the imperial examination. No."
You need to read those things, so when you are bored, you will read Empress In Hyo-moon's "Internal Instructions" and "Book of Encouragement", and you will also be familiar with "The Women's Commandments"."
When Queen Hang heard this, she felt happy.
As expected, we are all ladies.
Empress Renxiaowen was Empress Xu, the main palace of His Majesty Taizong. She had a reputation as a daughter-in-law. In addition to assisting Taizong in rectifying the harem, she expanded on Empress Ma's teachings and wrote 20 chapters of "Internal Instructions", which are also similar to the good words and good deeds of ancient compilers.
He wrote the "Book of Encouragement" and distributed it throughout the world.
"Female Commandments" is a private letter written by Ban Zhao of the Eastern Han Dynasty to teach the women of the Ban family the principles of life, including seven chapters: humility, husband and wife, respect and prudence, women's behavior, concentration, Qu Cong and uncles and sisters.
They are all good books to teach women how to care for their husbands and raise children.
Well, I have read the book.
I don't know what my temperament is like.
Regardless of whether she is a princess or a concubine, she will be the face of her son in the future, and it is best to be a quiet and virtuous woman.
He asked with a smile: "What do you like in your daily life?"
Just like female celebrities.
Quiet.
Bai Li groaned, a little confused as to why the Queen asked the question repeatedly, and said: "Didn't the Queen ask this question before? Folk girls like to read."
Queen Hang was a little embarrassed.
I feel like I'm being overpowered by my future daughter-in-law. I'm afraid this future mother-in-law may be a bit disadvantageous.
When Ruan heard this, she was startled and stood up hurriedly——
Stopped by Queen Hang.
He is the master of the harem in the world of mother-in-law, how can he get angry with a little girl?
Of course, this is not the most important reason.
The real reason is that she fell in love with Bai Li.
She has a beautiful appearance and is well-educated. The unintentional mistake she made just now is just a little doubt of her as a child. She is still in her pure and sincere years. She speaks straightforwardly and has no scheming, which is understandable.
And she likes reading, which shows that she has a gentle temperament.
Coupled with her father's background and abilities, wouldn't she be the perfect princess?
He smiled and said, "Come here, take Bai Li out to play."
Very satisfied with myself.
You can give Ruan a thorough understanding first.
After the husband and Bai Gui talked, the couple went to the East Palace to meet and asked the little bastard if there were no accidents, the marriage would be settled.
As ordered long ago, the palace maid immediately took Bai Li, who had bowed, out of the Kunning Palace and went straight to the Wenhua Palace.
What the empress wants... Let His Highness the Crown Prince also take a look.
What if the two characters conflict?
Queen Hang was also afraid that if she found a queen like Li Fengniang of the Southern Song Dynasty for her son, she, the mother-in-law, would not be able to rest in peace.
In the Wenhua Hall, the sound of books is audible.
The old eunuch Qi said softly at the door: "Mr. Zhang, the Queen sent the eldest daughter of the Bai family to the Wenhua Palace. The empress said that she had something to do and asked the prince to accompany the eldest daughter of the Bai family to read a book."
The reasons are all sufficient, indicating that this is a fateful encounter.
Zhang Peng is open-minded.
Not at all annoyed because his teaching was interrupted, he saluted his father Qi and looked at Dai Yi, Zhao Mu and other young eunuchs, "Is there anything you still don't understand about what I just taught you?"
The old man Zhu Jianshen sitting next to Zhu Jianji said, "No!"
I just want to see what my cousin’s wife looks like.
Dai Yi smiled and said: "There are many things that are unclear, but I would like to ask you, sir. It may disturb His Highness. Mr. Zhang, can you move to the side hall?"
Zhang Peng laughed loudly.
Ignoring the straight man Zhu Jianshen, he took Dai Yi and six young eunuchs and left to the side hall.
Zhu Jianji knew it well.
This is a blind date arranged by the cheap daddy.
After Zhang Peng and others left, they ignored Zhu Jianshen, the light bulb, and pretended he didn't exist. He said to Qi's father: "Let Bai Li come in."
Moji, a little loli comes in.
Zhu Jianji only glanced at it and wailed in his heart.
Bai Youshou!
This is a crime.
And she is not only young in age, but also in stature.
With a body like this, if she was underdeveloped, she would probably be a young girl with a smooth life.
This is not the queen I want.
The queen I want should be curvy and have a pair of plump long legs. Not to mention hanging like a melon, at least she must be tolerant and big. This chapter has been completed!
