As soon as I walked out of the courtyard, I saw Nuan Yi leading a middle-aged woman wearing a crimson phoenix robe to walk from afar, with a high cloud bun on her head and a golden hairpin, which looked particularly gorgeous and noble in the sun.

The middle-aged woman was naturally Concubine Jin, followed by a beautiful girl in a long white dress, and the girl in white gently held Concubine Jin's arm, her movements were natural and intimate. There were more than a dozen palace maids and eunuchs behind him. With so many people coming at once, it seemed that Lin Wan's yard was a little small.

Lin Wan walked up quickly, with a smile on her face, saluted respectfully, and said crisply: "Wan'er has seen Concubine Jin, Concubine Jin's Niangniang is a thousand years old!"

Concubine Jin smiled slightly, leaned over to help Lin Wan up, and said softly: "Princess Wan doesn't need to be polite, Princess Wan has been here for so long, and this palace is the first time to see it, and it is really a cute person with a symbol." No wonder Qing'er has never forgotten you since she saw you in Dafeng Kingdom, and she has always put it on the tip of her heart. ”

Lin Wan lowered her eyes shyly, her little face was slightly red, she pursed her mouth gently, as if she was ashamed and happy, smiled lightly, and said with some self-reproach: "It's all because Wan'er is not angry, these days when she came to Xiling Kingdom, she has been sick for most of the time." I didn't dare to give my illness to Concubine Jin, so I didn't go to visit you, and I really didn't want to go. I've always heard Yun'er say that Concubine Jin's heart is very good, and she treats people kindly, but when I saw it today, Yun'er really didn't lie to me. As soon as Wan'er saw you, she felt cordial, and the apprehension and uneasiness in her heart immediately disappeared. ”

Concubine Jin looked at Lin Wan carefully, and couldn't help but be secretly shocked, she didn't expect Lin Wan's performance to be so calm, not only cleverly skipped the topic of Ximen Yuqing, explained the reason why she didn't go to visit Concubine Jin, and said good things about Shangguan Yun in front of Concubine Jin without a trace, and praised Concubine Jin by the way, just a few words were said without leakage, respectful and polite, and it didn't seem deliberate.

Lin Wan turned her gaze to the woman in white beside Concubine Jin, smiled, and said softly: "This sister looks so similar to Concubine Jin, the same noble and generous, gentle and beautiful, she must be Concubine Jin's niece Sister Bai Qingxuebai, right?"

Bai Qingxue smiled gently, bowed her knees to Lin Wan, and said, "Bai Qingxue has seen Her Royal Highness Princess Wan, and Her Royal Highness Princess has good eyesight. However, the princess praised it falsely, and Qingxue could not reach one-ten-thousandth of her aunt's. ”

Lin Wan pursed her lips and smiled, and said lightly: "Sister Bai is too humble. After speaking, he walked to the other side of Concubine Jin, touched her arm affectionately, and said with a smile: "Concubine Jin, tea and pastries have been prepared in the palace, let's go in and talk." With that, he stroked Concubine Jin and walked towards the main hall.

Concubine Jin sat on the main seat, Bai Qingxue stood quietly beside her, and the palace maids and eunuchs stood guard outside the hall.

Lin Wan sat down next to Concubine Jin, with a coffee table in between. There are two bowls of tea and various pastries on the table. Bai Qingxue's seat was set up on the guest seat on the right, and tea and pastries were also arranged, but she was willing to stand, and Lin Wan didn't force it.

Concubine Jin went straight to the point and told Lin Wan about the process and precautions for choosing a concubine for tomorrow's feast, and it was really comprehensive and detailed.

Lin Wan also listened very carefully, and ordered Bing'er to write it down with a piece of paper on the side.

During this period, Lin Wan found that Bai Qingxue had been quietly looking at herself, and she couldn't help but feel a little unhappy in her heart, but she didn't show it.

Bai Qingxue is indeed beautiful, although she is somewhat similar to Concubine Jin, she is much better looking than Concubine Jin. At the age of fifteen or sixteen like a flower, her skin is white and tender, her eyebrows are clear, and her white clothes are better than snow, but she is not pressed down by the white clothes, but she is even more beautiful, white and beautiful.

There are not many people who like to wear white clothes and dress well. Of course, Ning Wuwu, Jin Ruoxin, Changfeng and Ximen Yuqing are all among the best.

Concubine Jin is about forty years old, about the same age as Ximen Longao, but with loose skin and droopy eyes, she looks older than Ximen Longao. It can be seen that her current status is really hard-won, and it is indeed very hard to take care of the harem on weekdays.

After listening to all the matters assigned by Concubine Jin, Lin Wan said respectfully: "Concubine Jin is very busy, and she also came to teach Wan'er in person, Wan'er is really moved in her heart. I just hope that tomorrow's concubine selection feast will go smoothly and not let Concubine Jin down. ”

Concubine Jin was indeed very busy, the tea and pastries on the table did not move, and after saying that, she got up and left with Bai Qingxue.

Lin Wan personally sent Concubine Jin and Bai Qingxue out of Wanxin Palace, watched them go to Jingtai Palace, and then turned around and walked back. I secretly wondered in my heart, why did this aunt and nephew suddenly arrive? Is it just to let Bai Qingxue meet her two fierce rivals?

When he returned to the room, it was already Shen Shi, and it was already past Lin Wan's nap time. Lin Wan ate some pastries, changed into comfortable clothes, removed her makeup, and went back to bed. She has always felt that it is useless to practice the night before any exam or competition, and that adequate sleep is the best preparation.

When he slept until the next day, Lin Wan woke up naturally. Bing'er and Nuanxin had already prepared everything, just waiting for Lin Wan to get up and make up.

Lin Wan ate a small bowl of porridge, changed into the light yellow palace dress that had been prepared a long time ago, sat in front of the dresser, and let the warm heart smear her face, Bing'er stood behind her, carefully helping her comb her hair and curl her hair.

The concubine selection feast only officially started at noon, but before the time, all the beauties had already arrived in the Bright Valley, and Lin Wan came not early, but it was not too late.

Jin Ruoxin, Zhou Chengkuan, and Shangguan Yun would not come until the banquet began, so only Bing'er, Qingtong, Nuanxin, and Nuansleeve followed Lin Wan's side.

Lin Wan's position is arranged in the middle of the front row, on the left is Hong Xiaotian, the princess of Hongde of the Nanyue Kingdom, on the right is Ning Cai'er, the lord of Ning County of the Dongli Kingdom, and on the other side of Ning Cai'er is Ren Piaopiao of the Northern Chen Kingdom.

Hong Xiaotian was wearing a red floor-length skirt with a wide and long red ribbon around her waist, bright and elegant. This dress is very suitable for dancing, so Hong Xiaotian's talent is mostly dance.

Ning Cai'er was wearing a pink gauze skirt, and looking at the outfit, she was also planning to dance. However, listening to Jin Ruoxin, Ning Caier's dancing skills are really good, but I don't know, compared with Hong Xiaotian and Ren Piaopiao, who can be better?

Lin Wan has long known that Ren Piaopiao is good at dancing, so Ren Piaopiao will naturally take out his strengths.

However, Ren Piaopiao was wearing the costumes of Bei Chenguo, which was different from the flowing long skirts of Hong Xiaotian and Ning Caier. The skirt is wide and colorful, but the skirt is only knee-length, wearing long boots, wearing all kinds of shiny silver jewelry, walking up, "jingle bells" ringing, looking very playful and cute, but there is another exotic style.
