Sitting on the phoenix chair again. She raised her eyes and looked at everyone. "Don't panic, everyone. The assassin is just someone arranged by me to pretend, just to test your ability to respond to trouble. The responsibilities of the Crown Princess are mainly to assist the Prince in handling palace affairs and to attend some events on behalf of the Prince on important occasions. Therefore, as a princess, you must remain calm no matter what happens. Otherwise, how to deal with this situation if you really encounter it. " After hearing the Queen's words, everyone already understood what was going on. Thinking about the unexpected incident they encountered just now, they didn't even have time to think about what was going on, so they were paralyzed with fear and didn't know what to do. As long as you use your brain and think calmly, you can think of unreasonable things. Instead of being so frightened that his face turned pale and he ran around everywhere. Thinking of the noble ladies from aristocratic families here, they all lowered their heads and remained silent. It's quite embarrassing. No one thought of this link, after all, they had never heard of it before. "Next, those whose names are called will stay first. The rest can go back after receiving their rewards!" Everyone nodded in agreement.
"It's the Queen." Jiang Xianyun raised her hand to signal, and the nanny standing next to her picked up the book and started calling names. "Yao Qing, the daughter of Zhongcheng, the censor. Xiao Lin, the granddaughter of the Dali Temple Qing. Gu Lingxiao, the daughter of General Shangyun, and Li Jiaojiao, the daughter of General Hussar..." "Whoever's name is called above, come forward." The girls who were called by their names behaved in a manner that was neither frightened nor arrogant, showing the demeanor of noble ladies from aristocratic families. No matter who among these people can become the crown princess, it will be very good. Among the thirty people, the queen selected seven, and the rest went back first. The few people left behind were still very nervous. Looking at the remaining people, she raised her hand to signal. "Come, please sit down." After a few people sat down, a palace maid immediately made tea and served it. "This year's new tea is delicious. You can try it." "Thank you, Queen." Here Jiang Xianyun was having tea with his future daughter-in-law, but in private he had already sent someone to call the prince. after awhile. The eunuch's voice came from the door. "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived..." Everyone present except the Queen stood up and saluted: "My maiden, please see His Highness the Crown Prince. His Highness is a thousand years old." "This servant (servant) pays his respects to His Highness the Crown Prince." Jun Linzhao walked past those people until he came to his mother, and then saluted. "My son, I send my regards to my mother."
Seeing his son, Jiang Xianyun waved and had someone move a chair for him and sit next to him. After waving his hand and sitting down, the prince looked at everyone and said calmly: "No courtesy." "Thank you, Your Highness." He raised his eyes and glanced at the girls present. His eyes fell on Li Jiaojiao's face and he raised his eyebrows slightly. Pan Jinlian? No, it seems to be called Li Jiaojiao. When he saw Li Jiaojiao, she also saw him. Maybe he didn't expect that he was His Royal Highness. Li Jiaojiao took a breath and immediately lowered her head. You probably didn’t recognize her! Last time she went to see the orphan of her father's deceased lieutenant general, and then she saw him. She almost hit him on the head with a clothes drying pole because she opened the window, but luckily she didn't hit him. Otherwise, she will be finished. Jun Linzhao looked back. At this time, he saw his mother coming over and talking to him in a low voice: "Zhao'er, what do you think? These are the candidates for the crown prince selected by the queen according to her wishes." He raised his head to indicate, who is the first on the right? Jiang Xianyun smiled slightly when he heard this: "That is Li Jiaojiao, the legitimate daughter of General Hussar's family. This girl is very good. She is neither arrogant nor impetuous and is very calm when things happen. Her family was born into a military general, and Li Jiaojiao is also good at martial arts and piano. She knows chess, calligraphy, painting, the Four Books and the Five Classics, and not only that, she is also familiar with the art of war, Zhao'er wants to choose her?" Familiar with the Art of War? I can't tell. That's really a good thing to say. "Just her! Mother, you can make arrangements." Hey, Jiang Xianyun looked at her son in surprise, "You've chosen so quickly?" She hadn't introduced the other girls to him yet, but she must have been very satisfied with Li Jiaojiao when she saw her son. so be it!
"confirmed?" "Ah." As expected of a prince trained as a prince, he is very decisive in doing things and will not hesitate. Not to mention seeing so many beautiful girls, he looked so calm. Jiang Xianyun smiled and said, "Now that you have made your choice, go give flowers to your princess!" Jun Linzhao's face felt hot for no reason. He felt that his mother was watching his show. "it is good." The gift of flowers in Dongcheng Kingdom was not because someone was not selected, but on the contrary, because if someone was selected, the prince would give a hairpin with flowers to the other person to express his willingness to hire the other person as the crown prince. Stand up. Jun Linzhao reached out and picked up a hairpin from the tray held by the eunuch. He didn't do any ink. After picking up the hairpin, he walked forward and stopped in front of Li Jiaojiao. The prince was tall, slender and handsome, which was completely inherited by the current emperor Jun Chengxiao. The prince's costume embroidered with gold silk pythons made him look more serious. Maybe seeing him stop in front of her made Li Jiaojiao's heart skip a beat. I must have misunderstood! He is not choosing himself. Just as he was thinking about it, he heard the prince say: "Raise your head." Looked up.
Look at him. I only heard him ask: "What's your name?" Meeting his gaze, Li Jiaojiao was sure that he still recognized her, and she was asking knowingly. He bowed to him and replied neither humble nor arrogantly: "Returning to His Majesty the Crown Prince, my daughter Li Jiaojiao, and my father, the Cavalry General Li Zhengxu." Jun Linzhao: "Yeah." After she finished speaking, Jun Linzhao was very satisfied with her attitude and reached out to insert the hairpin in her hair. Li Jiaojiao looked at him and forgot to react. Did he really choose her? Isn't she here to count the number of people standing?
Before entering the palace today, she had no idea that she would be chosen, and she had no hope. She was originally just going through the motions. At this moment, feeling the envious or jealous looks from the girls next to her, she finally came back to her senses. Seeing that the hairpin in the prince's hand already had its owner, the eunuch standing on the other side stepped forward immediately and said loudly: "Li Jiaojiao, the daughter of General Hussar, was chosen as the crown princess by the prince's gift of flowers." This sound was like hitting everyone's heart, and everything was a foregone conclusion. The selected Li Jiaojiao stayed alone, and the others were led by the eunuchs to leave the palace early. Seeing that there were no outsiders, Jiang Xianyun became more relaxed. "Good boy, come here." "Yes, Queen." Li Jiaojiao responded and walked to Jiang Xianyun. Looking at the fair-skinned and beautiful little girl in front of him, he saw from the booklet that she was only fifteen years old. We still have to wait for another year before we reach the age of haircut, which is really the age when flowers bloom like jade. Reaching out to take her hand, Jiang Xianyun smiled and nodded, "You look so good."
