Chapter Twenty-Seven: A Newcomer Comes

Xiao Gong had just entered the mansion, and he was a person who was warned by Mr. Murong, so he could only help a little on the periphery. This time, the five princesses were candidates to enter the mansion, if it weren't for Jadeite's other plans, they would have taken good care of her in the past few days, and with her current status, it would be impossible to follow Jade and secretly watch the five princesses candidates for the palace.

Although he could only look at it from a distance and had to leave, Xiao Gong was already satisfied. Finally, this day is coming, and my hard days are coming to an end. In a few days, he will change his master, and when the time comes, he Murong Shuo will have to weigh it even if he wants to deal with her.

Although Murong Shuo did not appear in the main hall, he did not stay in his other courtyard. Xiao Gong was pulled away by Jade, and with an inadvertent glance, he seemed to see Murong Shuo standing around the corner. But when she looked back, there was someone around the corner. She couldn't run over to see it clearly, so she could only be dazzled by herself.

However, just as she and Jade returned to the lower room together, a person turned around the corner. If you look closely, it is Murong Shuo who was seen by Xiaogong. But the reason why he is here is only because he came with the little gong.

The prince chooses a concubine, he is a guest, how can he point fingers at will. Now there are only five candidates, and if he wants to come forward to observe, he will have to wait until the prince has chosen someone. However, even if he didn't come forward, he would have guessed the final result a long time ago. The two final candidates, Luo Zijin, the daughter of the prime minister, will definitely occupy one of them. The prime minister is neutral, at least keeping his daughter will not harm the prince.

Now that he knew the result, Murong Shuo would definitely not spend any more energy on probing. That's why he followed Xiaogong and observed her every move. Although Murong Shuo did not directly order the things that Jade and the others did, he also knew and acquiesced.

The plan they were carrying out on Xiao Gong now was a random idea he had at the beginning, in order to deal with the other person before. Who would have thought that they would be used on Xiao Gong's body now. Then he is optimistic. If this little gong has the ability to resolve the net this time, then he will officially accompany her to have a good time.

The five young ladies came to the gate of the main hall to wait for the order, and after the prince had sent them out to summon them in, they entered in order according to their father's official position, and then lined up from left to right. Luo Zijin, the daughter of the prime minister, took the lead in worshipping: "The courtier Luo Zijin ......"

"Courtiers Jiang Ni ......"

"Courtier Cao Fu ......"

"Courtiers Fei Chengcheng ......"

"The courtier Hua Yueyao knocked to see His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness Chitose Chitose Chitose Chitose. ”

After Luo Zijin finished saying his name, the others also reported their names in turn, and then everyone knelt down and kowtowed to His Royal Highness the Prince.

"Flat. The prince raised his right hand slightly, and after speaking, he seemed to be unable to hold back, and coughed a few times.

"Your Highness. The ladies were grateful, bowing their heads and not daring to look at the prince casually. Only Jiang Ni is still young, although he also knows books and etiquette, but in the end, he is a child's heart, and seeing that the atmosphere here is not very terrifying, he can't help but secretly look at the prince's seat. But he was annoyed that he didn't dare to raise his head too high and didn't see anything.

"Proclaim it. The prince sat high on the top, and naturally saw Jiang Ni's performance in his eyes. The prince learned from Jiang Taifu, and even went to Jiang Ni's 100-day banquet, just thinking that she was his close little sister, naturally he would not blame her. Feeling that her annoyed look was very cute, she couldn't help but smile and motioned to the official holding the holy decree to announce the decree again.

Naturally, the content of the decree is the same, and it is only to demonstrate its importance when it is pronounced three times on different occasions. Although the crown prince's selection of the crown princess is not as good as the emperor's draft girl, the prince is the prince in the end, and his candidate for the crown princess must be reported to the divine tree for final selection, so it is naturally necessary to attach great importance to it.

After the decree was announced, the internal officials began to introduce the five candidates one by one. At the same time as the introduction, they also stepped forward one by one to meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince again. After receiving the ceremony, the crown prince also gave him a temporary residence on the spot.

After all, the prince only chooses one princess, and the other four who are unsuccessful will marry another one in the future. Therefore, their residences are far from the main hall of the prince. Located on the west side of the Prince's Mansion, with a garden and many courtyards in between, it is the Apricot Garden, the Prince's summer garden.

At this moment, in the middle of autumn, it is also very cool in the garden. The five candidates all lived in the garden, and each of them had their own courtyards, and the maids and servants who came with them were all arranged in advance. The Prince's Mansion also assigned maids to serve in various places, just waiting for the masters of each courtyard to move in.

Today's meeting is just to meet and exchange names. Therefore, after the five candidates met the prince one by one and were given a place to live, they left with the permission of the prince. According to the rules, they have to prepare for tonight's prince's banquet after they go back, so they don't have much time to get used to resting, and they have to prepare early for lunch and dinner.

According to the rules, there should not be the slightest trespass in the morning visit, so even if they want to attract the attention of the prince, they must not be rude on this occasion. Dinner was different. Since it is a banquet in the mansion, it is naturally not a courtesy for the monarchs and ministers, and it can be let go a little. The dress does not need to be worn meticulously in accordance with the regulations, and the neatness of the board is more than extravagant, and the gentleness is insufficient.

Therefore, this dinner is the first time that the prince and the beauties really meet. This first impression is good, and the good impression in the future can last.

Despite the suddenness of the decree, the time for preparation was not sufficient, so he rushed into the house. But what should be prepared will not be left behind? When the Prince's Mansion was preparing to welcome these five candidates into the palace, these five candidates had to prepare thoroughly.

Cao Shangshu's family alone invited almost all the tailors and craftsmen in the city away. was locked up in the house for three days and was not released, just to make the best dresses and jewelry for Miss Cao.

Cao Fu, the daughter of the Cao family, is the only daughter of Cao Shangshu, and she has loved it like a treasure since she was a child. And she also lived up to her father's expectations, and she was the most beautiful and stunning. If it weren't for Prime Minister Luo's daughter, Luo Zijin, who was outstanding in talent and good at managing his family, would have taken the lead in it with "talent" and "filial piety". It's not a problem for her to be crowned with Beijing at all.

Because of Luo Zijin's father's position and Luo Zijin's talent and fame, Cao Fu has never been able to compete for the first place, so he can only be called the second in everything. This made her, who has always been competitive, swallow this breath. Cao Fu heard that the prince chose a concubine this time, and Luo Zijin also came, and the obsession to compete with her became stronger and stronger.

She has only heard Luo Zijin read a lot, and she is also good at helping the prime minister's family. But if a woman only wants to win with these two points, she will ignore the advantages of being a woman. For a woman, beauty is a must, and singing and dancing skills must also be the key to showing a woman's charm.
