Since such a rumor came out, some people who were interested in marrying their daughters into the royal family began to become active. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

And the officials who didn't want their daughters to marry into the royal family secretly began to discuss and marry.

Therefore, the cloth villages, garment shops, and jewelry shops in the imperial capital have been doing a lot better recently.

Xiao'er was thinking about how the Queen Mother would choose concubines for several princes, whether to hold a talent show, or let them choose portraits, or hold a banquet for some reason, so that they could look at each other.

Without Xiao'er thinking about it for too long, she soon knew the answer, and Cining Palace sent out a post inviting unmarried women to participate in the etiquette competition.

Xiao'er looked at the post of her name and Yun'er's name and raised her eyebrows: Etiquette competition? Is this the selection of the best Miss Etiquette? The Queen Mother is quite creative!

Mama Rong looked at this post and felt proud, the girl can definitely win the first place in this etiquette competition!

Although the second girl is not as good as the girl, but under her own teaching and the girl's ears and eyes, she is also outstanding in many young ladies.

"Can I not attend?" Yun'er frowned slightly as she looked at her name, she wasn't interested in these showy things.

Xiao'er felt that Yun'er was too quiet, if the person she married in the future was Brother Ri'er, a scene like this would inevitably appear.

"The Queen Mother's invitation, if it is not a valid reason, is indispensable. There are too many things that people in the world don't like, but there are also a lot of things that you have to do involuntarily, and you have to adapt. Xiao'er handed the post to Yangmei and asked her to put it away.

"Yun'er, there are still a lot of things you can learn in the etiquette competition, so it's better to go to an etiquette class. Seeing Yun'er's face full of unhappiness, Liu Shi said with relief.

Yun'er nodded helplessly.

……

It was the time when the sun was shining and the snow was shining, and all the girls who were invited to visit the etiquette competition were taken to Shangqin Temple.

The temple is a place where the draft and show girls learn the etiquette of the palace.

"Didn't the county lord of Rui'an already give marriage to the six princes, why did he still come to participate in this competition?" someone asked when they saw Xiao'er also appearing here.

Although it is said to be a ceremonial competition, no one knows that this is just a dangzi, and it is actually a ceremony for the selection of concubines for several princes.

Isn't it superfluous for the county lord of Rui'an, the future six imperial concubines who have already been predetermined, to participate in this competition!

"You don't know this, I heard the county lord say that the queen mother is not satisfied with her being the sixth princess! That's why I sent her a post too, if she doesn't win a place in this competition, I'm afraid someone will be dismissed!" Chu Die glanced at someone, pretending to be a whisper, but the whole audience could hear the authentic words.

Xiao'er pretended not to hear, and signaled Yun'er with her eyes not to act rashly.

This is the Imperial Palace, and today they are here to participate in the ceremonial competition, or from the moment they step into the palace gate, they are playing under the supervision of others!

They don't care if they get a place or not, but they can't be rude!

She still has the title of the future six princesses, and she should be their role model.

"Divorce, won't it? That's the emperor's decree to get married. Liang Yanli's eyes widened.

"So what? Since the emperor can issue an order to get married, he can also issue an order to withdraw from the marriage!" Chu Die said disapprerovingly.

A pheasant is a pheasant! How can it be possible to become a phoenix!

Maybe this contest was specially arranged to return her!

"If this is the case, who would dare to marry her back!"

When the other women heard this, they all cast pity on Xiao'er.

Xiao'er is calm and calm, standing there without being surprised, neither humble nor arrogant, neither sad nor happy.

Although Yun'er felt unjust for her sister, she also knew that this was not the time to care.

At this time, two grandmothers came to remind everyone to line up, and then led them to a lobby.

Thirty-six women stood in three rows in the center of the hall.

In the center of the top sit the emperor, the queen mother, the queen, the nobles, several princes, and some women on the other two sides.

The Queen Mother looked at the thirty-six young women below and said: "The mourning family has not returned to Beijing for a long time, and some of you still grew up in the mourning family, but you haven't seen each other for a few years, and some of you have lost sight! Let's start with the first girl on the left, in the first row!"

In order to look good, the arrangement is not based on family background, only according to height.

The first person on the left in the first row is Ma Yuqing, the daughter of the most petite and delicate scholar of the Ministry of Rites.

After listening to the Queen Mother's words, she moved her jade legs lightly and stepped out of the ranks, only the pearls under her earlobes shook slightly, and the skirt shook slightly, and the toes did not show the skirt.

When he came to the emperor and the queen mother, he folded his hands at his side and bowed lightly, "The daughter of the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, Ma Yuqing to the emperor, the queen mother, the queen mother, please say goodbye." Your Majesty, the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother is auspicious!"

The queen looked at it and nodded secretly.

Mrs. Shoshu of the Ministry of Rites smiled with satisfaction.

The Queen Mother looked at her makeup and praised it in her heart, not bad!

It's a pity that she is a little shorter, and her height is only half a head shorter than the girl next to her.

The Queen Mother glanced at the lady of the Ministry of Rites, now that she is old, she has long lost the petite sweetness of her youth, but is a bit like a dwarf winter melon.

No, if she is given to her own grandson, what if the great-grandson of the future is to follow her height!

Thinking of this, the Queen Mother gave her a big cross in her heart.

The second is Chu Die, with the comparison of Ma Yuqing's standard textbook-like gait and salute posture, the Queen Mother crossed and forked after she took a few steps!

How did Mrs. Chu teach her daughter, the accessories on this girl's body shook so much that she was almost dizzy when she walked!

Chu Die chose a long skirt that dragged the ground today, and then wore a new pair of flowerpot bottom shoes, which made people look more swaying when she walked, but in the end, she was still not good enough, under the gaze of many people, she gave birth to a trace of timidity, and then her footsteps shook slightly, and the beads on her body made a little collision sound, this mistake made her more nervous, and it was easy to make mistakes when she was nervous, and she swayed into a swaying posture!

Mrs. Chu has the urge to cover her eyes, is this a beginner like a three-year-old toddler? I can't see it!

The third is Liang Yanli, the eldest daughter of the household servant, with a beautiful demeanor, a sweet appearance, a little baby fat on her face, she looks very blessed, with a thin waist and round hips, she is a good child, the Queen Mother saw this and nodded secretly.

"Liang Yanli, the eldest daughter of the household servant......" has a low voice, a little hoarse, like a teenager who changes his voice.

The Queen Mother listened to it and was silent, how could a good woman have a bad voice!
