So that's how it is. The place where the Empress lives? It should be very luxurious. I'll take a closer look later.
"Go and invite Miss Dong. I'll go with her.”
"Miss, according to the rules, all the girls with the first five different colored tokens will be taken by two nannies. But you are different, you can go by yourself.”
What was going on? Alone again? Why do I feel like I'm being independent? Forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore. Anyway, after today, hehe…
"Let's go!" I said happily. The weather today was especially good, as if it was sunny for the consort selection.
Just as I was feeling very happy, a very discordant voice interrupted.
"What a coincidence. It's my honor to meet you here.”I turned around, it was Wan Ruyi again, followed by a woman in light yellow clothes.
"It's an honor for you, but it's my misfortune!”I have a first impression of her, and I almost can't have a good impression of her. I'm sure that she will do something bad to me in the future!
"Look at elder sister's words, it's true. A beauty like elder sister, and with the emperor's support, her tone would naturally be a little tougher. Sister is so lucky to be personally taught by Granny Xu. The emperor will definitely like sister very much. However, in this harem, there will be young and beautiful women living in it every year. No matter how favored she is, she can't compare to them! Hehe, my sister has misspoken. I'll leave first.”After saying that, Wan Ruyi brought the woman behind her and walked forward. This is clearly saying that I'm old! So what if you're fifteen or sixteen? So what if I'm eighteen? By the time you're 20 years older, I'll only be 10 years older. I still have high-tech beauty products and branded cosmetics. Just wait a few thousand years!
"Lian 'er, didn't you say that the other young ladies would be brought to Chao Feng Palace by the nanny? How can she go by herself?"
"Replying to Young Lady, she and Shen Young Lady both received a yellow Xiu Nu card and can go on their own.”Sigh, my memory is bad. I forgot the order of the ten colors that Granny Xu mentioned at that time.
When he stepped into Chao Feng Palace with Lian 'er and Ye' er, he saw that there were already many beautiful girls dressed up gorgeously and accompanied by maids standing inside. Chaoyang Palace was indeed magnificent! I secretly praised. The hall that was originally filled with discussions quieted down after I entered. Everyone turned to look at me. Did he see a tiger? Was it that exaggerated? Am I that scary? After finding an empty space, I brought Lian 'er and Ye' er to stand quietly at the side. I looked towards the crowd. Heh, Dong You was also there. I nodded to Dong You and smiled back. Dong You also saw me and smiled at me.
"The Emperor has arrived!" Suddenly, a penetrating, high-pitched voice came from outside the door. Immediately after, everyone saluted and shouted in unison,"Greetings to the emperor, long live my Huang!”
I raised my head and looked over. You finally showed up. Ten days ago, you stuffed me into Chuxiu Palace and ignored me, and now you've finally shown up! I'll leave the palace immediately today and never see you again!
Ling Xiaoyi anxiously searched for that figure, and finally, he saw her in an inconspicuous corner. Her golden muslin dress showed off her graceful figure to the fullest. Her pure and beautiful face made him unable to extricate himself, and that faint smile made him feel like he had lost his breath…These days, for some reason, no matter what he did, he could think of her, and even smile foolishly. Every night, he would sneak into Chuxiu Palace and watch her fall asleep on the roof before he was willing to leave. There were several times when he saw her sitting in front of the table and sighing until late at night. Her tightly furrowed brows made his heart ache, and he wanted to immediately appear by her side to smooth them…He had never missed a woman like this before. He was already very sure that he had fallen in love with her.
"Let's begin." Ling Xiaoyi said.
"Su Wan 'er!" Eunuch Chen held the roster in his hand and shouted. Immediately after, a petite girl walked out.
"Greetings, Emperor!" After a long time without seeing the Emperor's reaction, Eunuch Chen read out,"Next, Chen Xuejiao!"
Just as I was about to fall asleep, someone finally called out to me,""Next, Wenren Mei!"
"Here!" F * ck, his reaction was too fast. I actually called out for him to arrive? Everyone stared at me with strange eyes again. I calmly walked forward. This was the second time she saw him, but he was still so cold. If he smiled, he would definitely be even more handsome!
Ling Xiaoyi was absent-minded as he dealt with these damn procedures. When he saw that the girl seemed to be sleepy and was about to fall asleep, he actually smiled.
"Greetings, Emperor!" I bowed and shouted.
"Rise!" What? Did I hear wrongly? He said stand up? Why didn't he say this to the other girls?
"Thank you!" I smiled back at him. This smile completely melted Ling Xiaoyi. He swore that he would have her in his life!
"Emperor, do you want to stay or not?" Eunuch Chen saw the Emperor's abnormal behavior and reminded him in a low voice.
"Stay!" What? You want me to stay? It's okay, I still have a chance!
"Your Majesty, all the beautiful women have been seen. Please issue an edict!”Eunuch Chen turned around and saluted the Emperor.
"The Imperial Garden!" Ling Xiaoyi said slowly.
"Yes, sir! His Majesty has decreed that we should go to the Imperial Garden!" It seemed that the first round was over. There were 39 people left. It was time for the talent show.
In the imperial garden.
"Long live our emperor!"
"Stand up. Eunuch Chen, we can begin."
"Wan Ruyi, daughter of the Minister of War.”The first one was Wan Ruyi, that little girl. Heh, let's see what kind of talent you have.
Wan Ruyi walked forward with her pipa in her arms and looked at the kid affectionately. She bowed and said,""Greetings, Emperor!" Then, he sat on the stool prepared by the maid and began to play the pipa. A pleasant tune immediately sounded.
"Lian 'er, what song is she playing?”I whispered to Lian 'er.
"Miss, the song that Miss Wan played is 'Mountains are high and rivers are long'.”
It's quite nice. I'll learn it when I'm free.
After the song ended, he looked at that kid again. He was sitting on top and staring at Wan Ruyi. Tsk! What are you looking at! She was captivated so quickly? What a good-for-nothing!
Ling Xiaoyi looked at Wan Ruyi and felt conflicted. He had long heard that Wan Guocai's daughter, Wan Ruyi, was a mean person. Furthermore, Wan Guocai was suspected of rebelling. If he did not choose Wan Ruyi, Wan Guocai would have military power and would be extremely disadvantageous to the country. If he chose her, he was unwilling.
"Emperor, do you want to stay or not?" Eunuch Chen asked in a low voice. Wan Ruyi also seemed nervous but forced herself to look at the Emperor calmly.
After a long time, the Emperor slowly and coldly said,""Stay!"
Eh! He was indeed a playboy!
The next performance was singing and dancing. The next one seemed to be Dong You. I was so sleepy in the first round just now that I didn't pay much attention. It turns out that Dong You also successfully passed.
"Dong You, daughter of Assistant Minister Xuan!" I guess she should be able to pass smoothly.
Dong You slowly walked up. There was still a faint sadness between her brows.
"Greetings, Emperor!" Dong You said slowly. Following that, Dong You waved her finger, and the musician beside her immediately began to play a tune. Dong You began to dance elegantly to the accompaniment of the music. Sometimes it was gentle, and sometimes it was unrestrained. Her beautiful dance attracted everyone's attention. In just a few minutes, she had spared no effort to display her dancing skills.
