"What?!"
"Twenty people? Didn't that mean that 80 people would be eliminated?”
At this moment.
There was a commotion among the maidens.
Many girls were shocked and panicked.
They were here to choose a beautiful girl, wanting to enter the palace to become the emperor's woman.
At that time, he would soar into the sky and his status would be revered.
However, he did not expect that he would not even get to see the emperor.
The Empress Dowager did not even glance at him.
He had to choose 20 people from the 100.
The remaining eighty people had to be sent back to their hometown!
Eight out of ten!
Eighty percent of the female cultivators were unable to pass the selection.
And this was already the top young lady who had gone through many rounds of selection!
"This isn't fair! Wasn't it said that if ten thousand people were chosen, a hundred people would become a beautiful woman?”
Ji Yunyi couldn't help but say.
She was very confident in her looks.
However, what if they were unlucky and lost?
Once they lost, everything would be over.
Not to mention climbing, he would fall before he could even take his first step!
At that time, there would be no chance to turn the tables.
Therefore, Ji Yunyi couldn't help but ask.
Many of the female cultivators immediately started chattering.
If it was something else, it would be fine.
However, this concerned whether they could stay or not. No one could remain calm!
In front of everyone, Shangguan Yan 'er frowned.
"Silence!"
she scolded.
Her voice was very cold and had a hint of majesty, like a proud peacock.
The surrounding palace maids shouted in unison.
Many of the female cultivators were silent.
"The Emperor has personally spoken in front of the Empress Dowager that only twenty of the hundred beautiful women will remain.”
"Therefore, the Empress Dowager has decreed that I handle this matter.”
"No matter what great clan you are, you cannot change this order. I have no favoritism in choosing the ladies. Only twenty of you can stay. This is fate!”
Shangguan Yan 'er glanced at Ji Yunyi.
The surrounding palace maids surrounded her, and she seemed to have a high status.
Ji Yunyi hurriedly lowered his head in fear.
Her heart was filled with unwillingness.
Female official…When I become a concubine, I must…
However, at this moment, she was also extremely nervous and panicked.
It seemed like he had offended the female examiner with just one sentence.
Would she end her fate as a beauty just because of this sentence?
When she came to the Forbidden City, it was her first time seeing the magnificence of the Imperial Palace.
Everywhere he went, it was almost too much for the eyes to take in.
Seeing the Imperial Guards and the experts of the East Military Hall come and go like phantoms, they followed orders.
The palace maid kept reminding the beautiful girl.
This was the Forbidden City, where the emperor lived and where supreme power gathered!
All the power in the world, all the dignity, all the power!
All of them gathered here!
Making the Emperor smile would grant him a great reward. Within a day, he would ascend to the throne and become an official!
The emperor was furious. In an instant, his head fell to the ground. Before the blood had even cooled, three clans had already been exterminated!
Such power, such power!
Ji Yunyi only heard its voice and saw a trace of its shadow before falling into it.
She longed to see Tian Zi!
To be able to obtain the emperor's favor!
He absolutely couldn't…
He must not be eliminated!
He absolutely could not return home and be mocked by his master again!
Ji Yunyi gritted his teeth.
The girl next to him with her head lowered was still confused.
He didn't realize what had happened.
She saw Ji Yunyi's expression change.
He reached out his hand worriedly and gently tugged at Ji Yunyi's clothes.
This action made the girl's ears turn red and she was very shy.
"It's alright."
she whispered, her voice like a mosquito.
Therefore, Ji Yunyi did not hear it.
At this moment.
Shangguan Yan 'er glanced at the girl beside Ji Yunyi.
She didn't say much.
All the beautiful women here were panicking. They were racking their brains to stay.
Whether it was flirtatious, pure, cold, charming…
What was his background?
In the harem, every step was like walking into an abyss!
Shangguan Yan 'er had seen a lot.
"First, line up in two rows. I'll check your bodies one by one!”
"I don't want anything too high!"
"I don't want those that are too short!"
"I don't want those that are too fat!"
"Too skinny, don't!"
"Only those whose bodies are suitable to serve the emperor and close to perfection can stay.”
"Secondly, you can talk to each other face to face!”
"I want to check your voices!"
"Inarticulate, stuttering, unpleasant voice, and ugly lips when you speak…you can't leave any behind!”
"Third, take off your clothes and do a detailed skin examination.”
"Scars, wrinkles, large birthmarks…and so on, they will all be eliminated!”
Shangguan Yan 'er explained the rules one by one.
Not only these few, but there were also many of them.
The beautiful women were all trembling.
The rules were too complicated.
Shangguan Yan 'er said calmly.
"The selection begins now!"
Many of the female cultivators looked uneasy and scared.
However, at this moment, he could only face the selection.
The rules of the palace made these young girls who had just come out of their boudoir.
This was the first time he knew what it meant to be strict and cruel!
……
In the bedroom.
Zhu Qiyu didn't care about the selection of the beauties.
This was not worth worrying about at all.
He was the emperor of Ming Dynasty.
The country and the people of the world needed him to protect and control them.
Otherwise, the world would be in turmoil, and the people of the Nine Provinces might fall into famine, war, raiders... and other threats!
Only when the emperor was wise could the world be stable.
If the Emperor was like Zhu Qizhen, then the number of people who died in the world would be simply uncountable!
"How are the remnants of the Vassal Army?"
Zhu Qiyu asked lightly.
