Ghosts are not evil

Chapter 51 Three Princesses (4)

The queen's youngest brother, Zhang Huainan, and Qin Meiren in the palace were childhood sweethearts since they were young. It would be good to have a prince and grandson.

Qin Ze, the father of Qin Meiren, lives in the sixth rank of the official residence.

Great Xia laws and decrees, five grades and above and enshrined officials, supervisory censors, and daily court attendance.

Qin Ze, who lives in the sixth rank of the official residence, does not belong to them. Except for the first day of every month, he doesn't even have the chance to catch a glimpse of Longyan from afar.

The Zhang family also didn't want the only Miao in the family to marry the daughter of a sixth-rank official as his first wife. Qin Ze was so arrogant that he didn't want his daughter to be a concubine.

It's a coincidence that the two families are very different, why do the children know each other well?

The head of the country lives in a first-class residence, and the imperial court bestowed a mansion with a high gate, facing Chang'an square on the left.Although Qinze's official position is low, he is superior because of his seniority. In his early years, he was allocated a small residence. The mansion of the governor of the country happened to be adjacent to the official residence. There were one front and the other, facing north and south, and each gate opened. One of them has lived next to the head of the country for 17 years.

Miss Qin is sixteen years old this year, and her single name is a plain character, which is exactly the age of jasper.

Zhang Gongzi, Miss Changqin, is two years old and eighteen years old. The two have been in love since they were young. However, the world is unpredictable and they cannot be husband and wife.

Master Shaoqing, Qin Ze, has always had a strong character. Although he is a concubine and concubine, he is a royal family, and it is not considered an insult. Besides, the current emperor is still a wise emperor, and the harem is harmonious. If his daughter Qin Su can serve him, it must be a good match.

Zhang Huainan took a vain position in the imperial court, because Miss Qin entered the palace, she was so sad, she resigned from office a few years ago and went home, and the left and right were not official titles that she earned, Zhang Huainan didn't think it was a pity.

Zhang Huainan and his elder sister Zhang Huaiyu had always been close, and they often went to the palace to greet Queen Zhang.

Empress Zhang is the mother of the country. Regardless of her mother, the princes and daughters in the palace all call her queen mother. In terms of seniority, Zhang Huainan is Mu Yin's uncle.

There are three sons and two daughters under Mu Qingshan's knees. Although the seventh princess is three years younger than Mu Yin, she has already married into her husband's family. Excluding Mu Yin, the rest of the princes are either still young or have already married. Yin, she is nineteen years old, and there is no sign of getting married at all, which is very worrying for the mother of the country.

Those who didn't know thought she was the queen who treated the fourth princess poorly.

Concubine Shu and the emperor were not in a hurry at all. The emperor's Sangong and Liuyuan were in a hurry. After all, they were not his own daughters, and they always stayed in the palace. His majesty only pretended to be the four princesses, so he couldn't pretend to be their children.

His Majesty has always favored princesses. The son of the Minister of Rites married the Seventh Princess and was promoted all the way. Facts have proved that as long as the son-in-law does a good job, His Majesty will like you no matter what he thinks of you.

Therefore, princesses in Daxia are very sought-after, and every family is willing to marry them, but His Majesty only has two princesses, and the seventh princess is already married, so only the fourth princess is left.

Not to mention that the fourth princess is well-known, and also has a good reputation. She has been in charge of the inner palace for more than three years. Not excited.

The position of Zongzheng in the Inner Palace has always been run by the royal family. His Majesty has no uncles, no brothers, and even aunts and sisters who are not alive, so the juniors have to help manage the Inner Palace.

The crown prince was busy with general affairs and had no time to distract himself. His Majesty chose the four princesses after deliberation. There was no dispute in the court, so it was settled.

The inner palace is the royal private treasury, and there is a Zongzheng hall, which is in charge of the criminal law, the official affairs department is in charge of the cashier, the ceremonial department is in charge of the minor sacrifices and the personal grade of the inner palace, and the Yinhu mansion is in charge of the taxation of the Huangzhuang and the royal residence. He is in charge of the military equipment and manufacturing department in the palace, the royal fabric maker, the Wenhua hall is in charge of the imperial library, the books and printing volumes given by the palaces and the royal family, the imperial hospital is in charge of medicine, and the Sima office is in charge of the imperial guard of honor.

There are two halls, two vassals, one division, one mansion, one courtyard, and one office in the inner palace. The general affairs are complicated, and the non-royal family can't take care of them. Before that, Mu Qingshan had been in charge in person, and he let the officials under him handle it by himself. Ignoring all the important matters, this is obviously not acceptable, the hair of the ministers everywhere in the inner palace is so worried, the emperor's relatives, their courtiers, no one can afford to offend.

The harem is not allowed to do politics, even the emperor's private residence is also a part of the court administration, the empress can't control it, your majesty doesn't want to control it, and foreign ministers don't dare to control it.

Under the crown prince, the princes and princesses who are in the front rank all go early, all the way to the fourth princess Mu Yin, so the princess was thrown into the inner palace by his majesty when she was sixteen years old. The elder brother shared the joys and sorrows, and understood the pain of baldness. His majesty's child has long been in charge of the family, and that's what he said.

The fourth princess is in charge of the inner mansion, even the queen who is in charge of the sixth palace has to give the fourth princess a little bit of favor. The basic necessities of the ladies are all inseparable from the inner mansion.

Zhang Huainan also watched Mu Yin grow up, but not often, there were many trivial matters in the harem, and it was rare for the inner palace to be free.

The Empress and Concubine Shu get along fairly well. Concubine Shu has a weak foundation, she gave birth to Mu Yin, and her vitality was greatly damaged. No matter how difficult it is to have an heir, how to be favored is not too obtrusive in the eyes of the Empress, let alone the Empress and the Crown Prince. Jealous of concubine Shu for tripping her up.

The queen intends to bring Mu Yin and Zhang Huainan together, especially after the beauty of Qin enters the palace, thinking about Mu Yin's background, appearance, and talent, which one is comparable to Qin Su, this is a good marriage.

Besides, Mu Yin didn't care about Zhang Huainan at all. A woman's eyes can't be deceiving. It's a pity that my stupid brother didn't have such thoughts at all. It's hard to let Mu Yin, a girl, mention this matter.

Mu Yin of "Girl's Family" is not afraid to express his feelings because of his face, but he really knows that Zhang Huainan has no intentions for him. Zhang Huainan is in love with the beauty of Qin. People's eyes are not ordinary.

He has seen Qin Su before, she is a beautiful girl like a willow in the wind, she is neither humble nor overbearing, she is a good girl, she is very suitable for a refined scholar like Zhang Huainan.

He had never heard of Zhang Huainan's good manliness. He, Mu Yin, had been a princess for 19 years. After all, he was a man. He would ask his father to marry him regardless of indiscriminately. In the end, he might become a bitter couple with Zhang Huainan.

Therefore, Mu Yin didn't intend to let Zhang Huainan know his intentions. It doesn't matter if he doesn't marry, the concubine mother will intercede for him. He has his own difficulties.

One doesn't know, one doesn't say anything, and they should have lived in peace.

However, the empress acted as a hindrance, forced the old man to let the palace servants do nothing, and insisted on asking Mu Yin to send Zhang Huainan back to the mansion, who was drunk at the palace banquet.

Naturally, he never underestimated Zhang Huainan, and Zhang Huainan never underestimated him, but after Zhang Huainan got drunk, he was very clingy, he tugged on his sleeve and refused to let go, so Gu Fufeng simply took off his coat to him.

The next day Zhang Huainan woke up from drunkenness, and covered his body with an extra piece of clothing. Looking at the style, it turned out to be a woman's clothing. This was a big problem. After asking the servants, he learned that the fourth princess sent him back to the mansion last night. Xiao Zhong stayed for a while, and when she came out, the coat was no longer on her.

When Zhang Huainan heard about this, it was like five thunderbolts, he felt that he must have slighted the fourth princess, and the fourth princess ran away in embarrassment and anger.

Zhang Huainan was very annoyed, what kind of character is the fourth princess, how could he... how could he be contemptuous of her, let others know, and everyone could drown him with a mouthful of spittle.

Zhang Huainan ordered the servants in the family not to talk too much. The reputation of the daughter's family is more important than anything else, let alone she is a princess.

Zhang Huainan was thinking about how to apologize to the fourth princess, but no matter how he thought about it, he felt that he had committed a heinous crime.

For some reason, this matter quickly spread in Beijing and reached Mu Qingshan's ears. When Mu Qingshan asked, Mu Yin said dryly: "Father, Mr. Zhang has never treated his daughter lightly. It's a rumour."

Mu Qingshan said in displeasure: "How can there be such an uproar in the media in Beijing, which will tarnish your reputation for nothing, and the three of you will become tigers." Mu Qingshan didn't blush or pant when he said this, but he really seemed to have raised a daughter.

In a few days, the queen sent Zhang Huainan to the palace for questioning: "Huainan, my sister believes in you, but things have turned out like this, no matter what, you should give Mu Yin an explanation."

Explain, what should he explain to Mu Yin, Mu Yin's coat is still hanging in his room, soaked in the sandalwood in his room, it is obvious that Mu Yin is not short of this dress, he never thought of returning it. she.

When Zhang Huainan returned home in the evening, he looked at the moon-white long-sleeved shirt on the hanger, with a large white peacock embroidered with silver thread on the back. He still remembered the way Mu Yin wore it that night. forget.

It's not that he doesn't have Mu Yin in his eyes, it's just that he never dared to imagine that Mu Yin is as beautiful as a person in a picture scroll, how could he have any marriage with an ordinary person like him, she deserves the best in the world, she can choose emperors and generals.

And Zhang Huainan has no fame, and those in his family are not his. He also has an older brother. Zhang Huainan thinks that Qin Su is the most suitable for him. They are in love with each other, but why does God want to break them up? , Qinsu can't be with him anymore.

Zhang Huainan ordered someone to wash and dry Mu Yin's coat, thinking of returning it to her someday. He still remembered that day, Mu Yin's robe was covered with the elegant fragrance of orchids. Zhang Huainan ordered people to search around the spice shops in Kyoto, but they couldn't find that fragrance, so they had to give up.

Bi Jue ironed it with a gold bucket, hung it back on the hanger, and lit the young master's favorite sandalwood.

When Zhang Huainan was going to bed, he saw that moon-white silver embroidered sparrow-sleeve shirt was hanging on his bed again. He stretched out his hand to pull the sleeve, and sniffed lightly from an inch away. Sandalwood in the room.

Zhang Huainan couldn't help laughing, what was he thinking just now, he felt that the orchid fragrance from Mu Yin's body would still be left on this shirt.

How long has it been since Qin Su entered the palace, almost a year, and he seems to never have noticed what kind of smell Qin Su has on her body.

Zhang Huainan was in a daze thinking about the faint orchid fragrance, and fell asleep.

That night, Zhang Huainan had a very indecent dream. In the dream, he changed Mu Yin's clothes, and the faint orchid fragrance lingered on the tip of his nose, making him feel hot all over.

Only the last piece of obscene clothes was missing, and Mu Yin wanted to meet him sincerely. Zhang Huainan swallowed the body fluid in his mouth, and struggled to wake up in restlessness. He had never seen a woman's body, so he could not dream of Mu Yin. What does a naked body look like?

Zhang Huainan originally thought that he would not impose the love of men and women on Mu Yin. To him, Mu Yin was an untouchable bright moon in the sky, but the facts proved that he was no different from all the lustful people in the world.

Is he too ruthless? Qin Su has been in the palace for less than a year, and he is thinking of another woman in his dream, and that woman is Mu Yin.

Go into the palace today and return the clothes to Mu Yin, Zhang Huainan thought so, got up and wrapped the folded clothes in brocade silk, put them in a wooden box, and carried them into the palace.

There was a branch of magnolia in early spring that crossed the palace wall, and its tender petals were blooming gracefully. It was so beautiful. Zhang Huainan felt that it would be very suitable if it was pinned in Mu Yin's hair.

Zhang Huainan thought this way, seeing no one around, put down the wooden box, ignoring the demeanor of the third son of the Xiangfu, jumped up to reach the magnolia on the branch, failed to reach it once, and tried again.

When it was enough, Zhang Huainan burst into a smile, and the moment he dropped his hands and lowered his head to the ground, he saw Mu Yin sitting on a jade shovel passing the palace alley, amidst the falling magnolia petals, his eyes softened. The spring breeze entered his heart.
