The Great Zhou Empire.
Other than punishing the corruption of officials, he also implemented a whip law.
It allowed Xixia and the Turks to merge into the territory of Great Zhou.
There was another matter that was of great significance to the people of Great Zhou.
That was to choose a beautiful girl to enter the palace.
This was an extremely important matter to the people.
She became a beautiful woman and entered the palace.
He would have the chance to reach the heavens in one step.
Among the emperors of the Great Zhou Dynasty, there was no lack of civilian women who gave birth to dragon sons and became the empress or even the empress dowager!
The Empress Dowager was a poor woman who only had a few acres of land.
The late Emperor had given birth to the First Prince, who was now the Yongxing Emperor!
Becoming the Empress.
Now, she was in charge of the harem, the mother of the world, and the four seas.
Most of the women among the people followed the example of the Empress Dowager.
However, the only way for ordinary women to enter the Imperial Palace was to choose a beautiful woman.
The selection of female cultivators was extremely strict.
Those who were chosen were usually one in a thousand.
Shangguan Wan 'er was enough to topple all living beings among the people.
However, in this harem, looks and figures were only above average.
If Ji Hao hadn't discovered his ability to govern a country, he would have been able to do so.
It was likely that even at the age of twenty-four, it was impossible for him to get the opportunity to be favored by the Emperor.
Even so.
There were still 200,000 women of suitable age who joined the competition.
In the end, there were only about 2,000 women who were chosen to enter the palace.
Some women were chosen to enter the palace, and a banquet was held at home to celebrate with firecrackers.
There were also some women who thought they were pretty and lost.
If she missed this opportunity, she would most likely be past the age to choose a showgirl in the next one.
The women who were chosen to enter the palace would be taught the rules of the palace by the female officials.
"If you want to have a place in this harem, you must obtain His Majesty's favor!”
"I have to use all means to obtain a chance to receive His Majesty's grace. Only then will I have a chance to soar. Otherwise, I can only be like grass and be trampled under others 'feet.”
" In the palace, there is an order of seniority. In the rear palace, the Empress Dowager holds the highest position. After the Empress Dowager, the Emperor has already taken in Concubine Tang. There is also Shangguan Wan 'er in Yangxin Palace who can be polished by the Emperor…These women have the highest positions in the rear palace…"
……
The female official who was in charge of guiding the girls had a desolate expression.
In another two to three years, they would be twenty-four years old and leave this palace that they had been dreaming of!
Seven or eight years ago, they were also one in a thousand.
She thought that she was a peerless beauty and would definitely be favored by the emperor.
However, there were simply too many outstanding women in the harem!
They came with dreams and left with disappointment.
However, those who could become a beautiful woman and leave the palace at the age of 20 were all virgins. When they returned to the common people, they were also in high demand. They could casually marry into rich and noble families.
After entering the palace for a month, she had already learned all kinds of palace etiquette.
Consort Tang, Wu Meiniang, and Shangguan Wan 'er both inspected the group of women.
Concubine Tang chose a dozen outstanding women.
All the women who were chosen by Concubine Tang were extremely happy.
They had already learned from the female official that the Emperor only had Concubine Tang as his concubine.
The young emperor was full of vigor.
Most of the palace maids in Chengqian Palace had been graced by the Emperor before, and they were able to leap up in status.
Among them, there were a few women whose names were in the noble ranks of the harem that the female official had mentioned.
There were even palace maids who were given the titles of Imperial Maid, Changing Clothes, and Treasure Forest.
These women had risen to the top. Their status in the inner palace was only slightly higher than that of the beautiful women and palace maids.
However, there were also grades.
Even the position of a county chief was not as high as theirs!
As for Shangguan Wan 'er, she had secretly memorized the names of a few of the new batch of beauties.
She happily returned to Yangxin Palace, and told Ji Hao about her love story when Ji Hao was in a good mood.
Even the Empress Dowager, who had the highest status in the harem, came to Chuxiu Palace where this beautiful woman lived and found a few suitable women to bring back to the palace.
In the Empress Dowager's eyes.
The most important thing now was to let the Emperor's bloodline continue and spread its branches.
"What's your name, and where are you from?”
"Empress Dowager, my daughter is Li Xiu Ning, and my father is Li Yuan, the commander of Shengzhou Prefecture.”
"So it's Ping Yang. I've long heard of your name. How's your mother?”
"Reporting to the Empress Dowager, my mother has been seriously ill and has passed away for two years.”
"What a pity. Back then, I entered the palace with her and received a lot of care from her. Come back to the palace with me and we can have a good chat.”
Li Xiu Ning was held by the Empress Dowager's hand and brought back to the palace under the shocked gazes of the group of beautiful women.
Even the granddaughter of Prime Minister Li Si and the daughter of Li Yuan, the commander of Shengzhou Prefecture, had become a beautiful woman and entered the palace.
Moreover, they had been together for a month, but they didn't know.
Moreover, Li Xiu Ning's mother seemed to have a good relationship with the Empress Dowager.
The female officials and the female maidens looked at each other. They had missed the best opportunity to befriend Li Xiu Ning.
……
It was August 15th again, the time to eat mooncakes and admire the moon.
Chang 'an City had also prepared a lantern festival, which was brightly lit.
Even the palace was filled with red lanterns.
Meanwhile, Ji Hao came to a small building near Changle Palace, climbed onto the tower and admired the moon.
