Then, the chief eunuch asked Liu Xiangya to go to the fourth cubicle.
As the first female to be called out, she actually went to the fourth cubicle. Could there be something fishy going on?
Liu Weirong was very nervous.
He felt that this talent show was not simple.
The number of people was huge, but it was so strict during the preliminary selection.
Then it was Liu Weirong's turn. The chief eunuch also glanced at her and lowered his head. After a pause, he let her enter the last cubicle.
The moment she entered, she was ordered by the nanny to take off her clothes.
Thinking of the blurry screen she saw outside, Liu Weirong uncomfortably took off all her clothes, and her well-developed delicate body immediately appeared in front of the serious nanny.
The nanny who was checking her strictly checked her from the beginning. She was satisfied that there was no smell of makeup on her body. She was very clean and elegant. She was also surprised by the ice skin and jade bones of this beautiful girl. Not only that, but she also faintly smelled an extremely faint fragrance on her body.
Her facial features were beautiful. Although she was not absolutely beautiful, her tender and sparkling skin definitely added a lot of weight to her. She was also a beauty with a fragrance.
The important thing was that she was very healthy. This housekeeper knew medicine. After the examination, she was pleasantly surprised and complicated.
The new Emperor was already twenty-eight years old, but he still did not have a prince. As the Empress Dowager's confidant, she had received an imperial decree to try her best to choose some healthy women for the Emperor to enter the palace.
She was the healthiest of all the women she had examined. She didn't have any problems at all, which was already very rare.
"Put on your clothes. It's enough!"
The examining granny said calmly, and then began to write something on the paper at the side. After she finished writing, she led Liu Weirong out of the small cubicle and brought her to the managing granny who was sitting with the chief eunuch, and handed over the results of the examination.
When the housekeeper saw this, she concealed the surprise in her eyes and looked deeply at the beautiful girl in front of her. There was a trace of satisfaction in her eyes, and Liu Wei Rong bowed.
"You passed!"
As soon as the housekeeper opened her mouth, a palace maid immediately came over and led her out of the side hall from another side door. As soon as she went out, she saw White Lotus waiting outside.
Liu Xiangya was also there.
"That's great. Third Sister has also passed the preliminary selection!”Liu Xiangya's face was full of joy, as if she was happy for her sister. She even went over to hold Liu Weirong's arm and intimately followed the palace maid with her. Bi Shui and Bai Lian took a step back and followed.
The young ladies who passed the preliminary selection were arranged to stay in the east and west rooms of the Hall of Splendid Beauty. Coincidentally, Liu Xiangya and Liu Weirong stayed in the same room.
After entering the room, the palace maid who led the way bowed and turned to leave.
Bi Shui and Bai Lian began to tidy up the house and pack their luggage.
Liu Xiangya and Liu Weirong sat at the table and chatted.
"I didn't expect the preliminaries to be so strict! "I just asked Bishui to ask around and found out that a large number of people who were not in good health in the first round of the preliminary selection had left from the other side of the Brocade Hall…" Liu Xiangya sighed, but at the same time, she felt lucky. When she was at home, her mother had taken good care of her body.
After the examination and passing, she asked Bi Shui to talk to a young eunuch. Only then did she know that the five nannies in the first round of the preliminary examination were all skilled in medicine, so many people were eliminated in this round of the preliminary examination, which did not match what Granny Gao had said at all.
However, she quickly guessed the reason. The new emperor was young and promising, but he did not have a prince. He only had two little princesses.
Therefore, she must enter the palace and strive to give birth to the first eldest son.
After tonight, she would definitely register with the Emperor and enter the palace.
At the same time, she was very puzzled. How did her third sister pass the preliminaries?
Didn't the cold poison enter her body and make her infertile?
Could it be that the granny who was inspecting them didn't find anything?
Or was it that the lost secret recipe that his mother had obtained was too secretive that even the nanny, who was proficient in medicine, could not find it?
She was also a doctor. When she held her arm earlier, she subconsciously brushed her wrist and did not find anything unusual. However, she always saw her eat those meals with 'condiments' added to them…
Since he couldn't figure it out, he could only put this matter aside.
"Yeah, I didn't expect it either!" Liu Weirong smiled in agreement, but her smile didn't reach her eyes.
It turned out that she was checking her health. Fortunately, she had the spatial spiritual spring. Otherwise, she would have been eliminated in the first round of the preliminaries. One could imagine the days ahead.
Liu Xiangya nodded and smiled,""Third Sister, what did the nanny do when you were checking?”
"It's nothing. I just took off my clothes and checked from head to toe!”She deliberately skipped over the matter of the nanny pressing her wrist.
"Just like that?" Liu Xiangya's eyes flashed with disappointment.
"Yeah, wasn't it like this when sister checked?”
"Mine too!"
"Aiya, I've been standing for half a day. I'm so tired. Sister, are you tired? If you're tired, let's take a nap!”Liu Weirong didn't want to say anything more, so she used the excuse of being tired to avoid Liu Xiangya's probing.
Liu Xiangya nodded.
A day passed very quickly, and the curtains of the preliminary selection of the show girls came to an end.
There were thousands of beautiful women participating in the draft, but less than 100 of them passed the preliminary selection.
This result shocked many people.
……………………
Night, Purple Mansion Hall
The current Emperor Murong Che was buried in a mountain of work.
Ever since he ascended the throne for three months, he had been busy cleaning up the mess left behind by the previous emperor and had almost no time to catch his breath.
He had not been to the harem many times, but there were not many concubines in the harem. There was only one empress, two concubines, and a few Chang Zai.
Amongst these women, besides the Empress, whose birth was the highest, Concubine Jing's father was a second-rank official, so it was only natural for him to be conferred the title of concubine. Concubine Gong's father was only a third-rank official, and he was conferred the title of concubine because she gave birth to a little princess. There was no need to talk about the Chang Zai, as they were all daughters of fifth-rank and sixth-rank officials.
One of the two little princesses was born from the Empress, and the other was born from the Gong Concubine.
It could be said that Murong Che had the fewest women among all the newly ascended emperors of the Great Qian Dynasty. It could be said that apart from the Empress Dowager's family, the Empress's family also supported him greatly.
One was a general with a large army, and the other was the head of the civil officials in the court.
At this moment, the Chief Eunuch, who had been busy for the whole day, came in with a stack of information on the beautiful women.
Murong Che heard the sound and put down the pen in his hand. He raised his head, revealing a young and handsome face with a hint of tiredness. He stared sharply at the person who had just entered.
Seeing that it was his trusted eunuch, he asked indifferently, his voice low and cold.
"Little Li, how was the talent show today?”
"Reporting to the emperor, due to the Empress Dowager's strict requirements, only a hundred or so women passed the preliminary selection!”The head eunuch, Little Li, replied respectfully and placed the information of the ladies who had passed the preliminary selection on the table.
"Hmm?" Murong Che's eyes flashed with surprise. So little?
He had left the matter of choosing a concubine to the Empress Dowager and the Empress. The Empress Dowager saw that his children were dying, so she focused on choosing healthy women for him. He knew this and did not object, but he still let the daughters of the important officials of the court stay.
As for the Empress, because of the Empress Dowager's interference, she was only assisting from the side. However, she could still play some tricks.
Murong Che flipped through the information on the young ladies under the candlelight. It was divided into two parts. The first part was about the daughters of the first-rank officials in the court and the Empress Dowager's family.
There weren't many of them, only eight or nine.
These beautiful women definitely had to leave a token, and they were all given the position of consort and concubine.
Murong Che already had an idea after flipping through it.
The second part was arranged according to the health of the body.
Liu Weirong's information was placed at the top of the list of the girls.
The daughter of a fifth-grade official? Murong Che raised his eyebrows. It seemed like his mother was really worried about his son.
When he saw the health status line: Extremely healthy!
Murong Che's pupils constricted.
"Little Li, tell the Empress tomorrow! I'll definitely leave this behind!" He was already twenty-eight years old, and the question of having children had been raised.
When he was still a prince, he had three sons, but they were all sickly and did not live past the age of three.
"This servant obeys!" Little Li glanced at the three big words 'Liu Weirong' and knew what to do.
Actually, the second round of the talent competition was just a formality.
The third round was the final round to let the emperor see the beauty of the beauty. The most important thing was the first round of the preliminary selection.
After that, he looked at a few others. The top three people in terms of health status had all been named by Murong Che.
He didn't look at the rest of the documents and handed them to Little Li for him to bring to the Empress Dowager.
Liu Xiangya didn't say that she had to stay, as she might be eliminated by the jealous Gong Pin in the second round.
Little Li thought of the things he heard five years ago and felt that he should let the Emperor know.
" Your Majesty, there's something I don't know if I should say…" Little Li wanted to say something but hesitated. He spoke carefully.
"Hmm? What is it?" Murong Che narrowed his eyes.
"It's about a pretty girl!"
Murong Che's eyes darkened and he scolded coldly,""Regarding the matter of the beautiful women, other than the ones that zhen has named, the rest will be decided by the empress dowager and empress! Little Li, you disappoint me!”A chief eunuch actually wanted to interfere with the fate of a beautiful woman.
Little Li was so frightened that his face turned pale. He knelt on the ground with a thud, cold sweat dripping down his forehead. He explained in a trembling voice,""This servant said that this beautiful girl has an extraordinary fate. This servant only remembered it when I saw her name today…"
Then, he recounted everything he had heard in Xiangguo Temple five years ago.
After saying that, Little Li knelt on the ground and swore,""Your Majesty, everything this servant said is true. Your Majesty can send someone to Master Ming Yuan to verify it!”
"What's the name of this beauty?" Murong Che was shocked. Master Ming Yuan was an accomplished monk from Xiangguo Temple and rarely gave orders to others. When he was eight years old, his uncle had secretly brought him to find Master Ming Yuan. At that time, he was still an unfavored prince and his mother was banished to the cold palace.
At that time, when Master Ming Yuan saw him, he only said," In the future, you can ascend to the throne!
Since that beautiful girl could make Master Ming Yuan make an exception to approve her life, what Little Li said must be true.
"Your Majesty, her name is Liu Xiangya!”
