Difficult to be a Concubine

This was a warning to her to hurry up and take action as soon as she saw the situation, so as to prevent others from snatching it away.

The Great Zhou Dynasty was used to picking girls, and for a period of three years, it would be a small election. They wouldn't force their daughter to participate, and once every five years, it would be a general election. In other words, the fifth year after the small election, the various provinces would send many beauties to the palace for selection.

After Yang Zixuan heard the news, his eyebrows twitched and he immediately asked: "Father, are women going to be chosen from the palace this year?"

"Yes, I heard that the Grand Preceptor took advantage of the fact that His Majesty is about to seal his brush to perform before the end of the year. He said that most of the palace maids are too old and need an election."

Three years ago? It was the Grand Preceptor's personal performance again! This was a delicate matter, so he asked, "Then did the emperor agree?" Yang Zixuan was secretly anxious.

Seeing him like that, Madam Hou felt a bit of unhappiness in his heart, and immediately asked: "Xuan'er? Why do you ask? "

Even though the Marquis had said that he would give Huang Lian'er to Yang Zizhi, she hoped dearly that Yang Zixuan would marry Huang Lian. At that time, she would have a way to hold Huang Lian down, and that would be equivalent to holding onto Yang Zixuan.

In the past, he had always said he wanted to study at Shangguan. Most of the time, he wasn't at home, and only at the end of the year or during the holidays were there a few days.

Firstly, Yang Zixuan lived in the front courtyard, and secondly, the other party had truly been on unusually tight guard. Besides Xiao Tong, who was accompanying his, no one else was able to get close to his.

He continued, "Don't worry. Mother will help you inquire about your marriage."

How could Yang Zixuan not know that she was planning all this? He laughed and said: I am asking for my brother, Mother, I am afraid you have to hurry, if the Emperor really wants to pick my daughter, I am afraid that this time, brother will be able to pick a good one.

Every time a girl was chosen, the people would always match up with her. Only, they wished that they could see their own daughter from time to time instead of having their flesh and blood separated after entering the palace.

"Is that true? And what age is it? " She still asked Marquis of Loyalty somewhat disbelievingly.

"Hurry up and settle the engagement for Zi Zhi and Juan Er. I heard that this time, the Grand Preceptor has a report that it's a peaceful day in the Great Zhou, and he should open the gates of the palace wide for women to enter the imperial harem. "In addition, you should also worry more about Zi Xuan's marriage. If you look at a few families, you can find a fortunate lady to marry into them."

What did it mean to be blessed, to have both father and mother, both siblings, this was being fortunate, these were the words he had said to sever Huang Lian's desire to become Yang Zixuan's official wife.

She was already seventeen, so when she heard this news, her heart was immediately thrown into disorder. None of the two elders that were just sitting there stood up for her, and she also thought about how her parents could drag this marriage to this day.

Madam Hou wanted to pull Huang Lian'er, but he heard Marquis of Loyalty speak out today. This meant that he did not fancy Huang Lian, but his expression was a little unnatural. In the end, he felt that he owed his own niece, so he could only bury his head in his food and not speak.

After Yang Zixuan received the letter, he could not help but be restless and did not want to create trouble, while the Madam Hou also had heavy thoughts.

The Marquis of Loyalty had always respected the Madam Hou as a guest, and with the addition of the new tender words of explanation from the palace, his thoughts were already on the new aunt, and he was unwilling to speak any further with the Madam Hou.

On the table, only Yang Zizhi, who was in his twenties, ate happily. Even Yang Juan Er knew to hide his actions.

The atmosphere in the hall was depressing. No one was in the mood to appreciate delicious food, so they quickly finished their meal and dispersed.

After a few more days, Master Hou called Yang Zixuan over to the study room.

"Father!"

"Come in!" He sent another servant out.

Looking at Yang Zixuan who looked exactly the same as his late aunt, he pointed to the chair with a sigh and said: "Don't worry.

"Father, why have you entered the palace today?" Yang Zixuan went straight to the point.

Marquis of Loyalty laughed bitterly, he had hoped that his own son would work hard and not raise a trash that only liked to be smeared with fat and powdered, but luckily he had Yang Zixuan, this bastard son, to comfort him.

"Sigh, if your elder brother had half of your intelligence, your father would be at ease."

The two of them were both his sons, and were originally fond of his legitimate son, but he did not expect the bastard son to be like him with such an outstanding status. He did not want to raise his status, so the two of them were unwilling to do so.

He pondered for a moment and said: "That day when we were eating in the hall, I saw that your mother wanted to give you her niece. Are you willing?" Although Zi Zhi wants to take her in, but this matter is not settled yet. "

He was not willing, but he still had to ask for Yang Zixuan's consent on the surface.

Without waiting for Yang Zixuan's response, he continued, "Back then, when your aunt was on the verge of death, father had promised her that he would listen to you regarding your marriage."

Hearing this, Yang Zixuan's nose turned sour. He was young and fashionable, but he could still vaguely remember his mother.

Every time he recalled that his own mother had been killed by someone, he would wish to eat that person's flesh and eat that person's bones. He hated that person to the point where he couldn't easily touch her.

"Xuan'er?"

Marquis of Loyalty was becoming more and more satisfied with Yang Zixuan's capabilities. In the past, he had ignored because of his death, and later, Yang Zixuan relied on his own hard work to re-appear in his eyes.

"Father, forgive this child but I cannot obey. To my son, the Huang Ju is just a distant relative who lives here, and not a proper relative of our Yang family. She should pay attention to men and women, but because she is my mother's niece, my son does not dare to tarnish the reputation of the house. So in these years, my son has always …"

Thus, the almighty Marquis of Loyalty started to brainstorm. It was because of a girl with another surname like Huang Lian, who actually made her son unable to return home!

Thinking about it this way, she thought back to the Madam Hou, thinking that she did not like the Yang family anymore, and only wished that her parents were a good family member, so she blocked her own flesh and blood outside the door for a distant relative.

"Humph!" "You are a descendant of our The House of the Marquis of Loyalty and are in the family tree. How can you allow an outsider to squeeze out? Good child, for the sake of our house's reputation, you've suffered so much for all these years. Your father has never known about this matter and only thought that you liked to play outside."

It had to be said that Yang Zixuan was too cunning. After all, after travelling far and wide in the past few years, while travelling through the various lands, he had also interacted with the merchants and trained to his limits.

Yang Zixuan immediately replied: "Father, son's hard work is nothing."

However, he was sneering in his heart. It was unknown who it was that listened to the woman's words, but when they heard that he was going to travel outside, they wanted to hit him with a staff and beat him up.

"Xuan'er, your father …" Marquis of Loyalty's face was filled with guilt.

Yang Zixuan was secretly pleased, he had brought Marquis of Loyalty into the pit, after so many years, he was finally about to recover.

"Father, you don't have to blame yourself, you have always valued national affairs, so you don't have the time to worry about these small matters. Fortunately, Mister treats me very well, and from time to time, he would give questions to his son in private.

Marquis of Loyalty had been given a pot of enchanting soup by him, and found the little boy more pleasing to the eye, and said: "The reason I called you here today is because of your marriage. Back then, I promised your aunt that your father would not make a mistake, do you have someone you like?"

Yang Zixuan was not sure what the Marquis of Loyalty meant by his words, it was because of the little fox's temperament that it grew up in such a place that was full of invisible blades.

"Father, Big Brother hasn't said his marriage. As his little brother, I naturally don't dare to go against the rules."

Marquis of Loyalty laughed: "It seems like there is. I originally wanted to wait until after you have passed the Hall Competition and have a good background, then I would ask your mother to carefully look at the marriage for you."

Yang Zixuan could not help but sneer in his heart, based on Madam Hou's thoughts, he wanted to strangle him to death. How would he even have the mind to donate the effort to find a good wife for him, he was afraid that he would try to fool everyone, it was just for show.

"Mother has a lot of troublesome matters, and since I have to help brother and sisters talk about marriage, I should help mother share more of my worries. I should avoid being disturbed by my son's matters."

"In that case, I was relieved. Originally, when you were young, you heard the Madam say that you had always thought that she had killed your aunt, and that she had also seen her disobedient behavior. It was your aunt who accidentally ate the wrong food, causing her to die from poison."

Could he get away with it by saying something careless? Yang Zixuan would not let her off easily, he thought to himself: My father definitely won't believe him so easily, I need to spend some time thinking of a solution, and make some good arrangements to make her beg for death, only then will I be able to dispel the hatred in my heart.

"Your son is still young and has long forgotten about his childhood. He has gained a lot of knowledge outside these years and knows that things cannot go as he pleases."

"I am relieved that you think this way, your brother will not be able to live up to his expectations and will have to rely on you to support him in the future. Also, since you already have a girl in your heart, you should send someone to propose earlier!"

Marquis of Loyalty thought for a moment before giving him a reminder.

He quickly thought of Marquis of Loyalty's words and asked without hurry, "Father, what do you mean by those words? Is the emperor really going to choose a girl? "

Yang Zixuan was afraid that some unforeseen event would happen. For Mu Rousang's sake, he had always been as calm as jade, not even daring to accept a little girl at her side.

She seemed to be a gentle and reasonable person, but in reality, she was just like a fierce little girl. She had wanted to marry her since a long time ago, and never dared to make a concubine in her room or make a bed for him, for fear that one day, she would overpower him and skin him alive.

I'm afraid that after spring, an imperial decree will be issued. The general election will be held for a year, and in the spring, all sorts of beauties will be collected, and during the summer, those beauties will be trained in all sorts of places. When it is autumn, those beauties will be sent back to the capital.
