Chapter 192: The Draft

The first draft in the Hyeongyeong years finally came as scheduled.

The tenth day of September.

The sky was still bright, and the three sisters of Zhou Mingshan had already packed up and sat on a unified carriage and headed for the imperial city.

Along the way, from time to time, other frames participating in the draft joined the avenue leading to the north gate of the imperial city from various branch roads.

After entering the side door, a eunuch came over to lead the ladies into the inner city.

First of all, the primary selection, appearance, physique, voice, skin and other items must meet the requirements.

After nearly three hours of tossing, the primary election finally ended, and the three sisters of the Zhou family entered the next round without saying much.

The re-selected show girls should stay in the Changchun Palace next to the imperial garden, learn the rules of one day, and wait for the emperor and queen to be selected the next day.

I don't know if it's been too long, or Zhou Mingshan deliberately forgot it, and when she entered the palace draft again, she actually felt strange everywhere. Although the assigned room was exactly the same as in her previous life, she still didn't feel any familiar.

Xu is because of the relationship between Concubine Ning, and the three of them live in the same room.

Zhou Mingluo still looks like a yin and yang weird, Zhou Mingke is smiling and welcome, but unfortunately I don't know how sincere he is.

Fortunately, these two sisters know the severity, and once something happens outside, it will be the face of the whole Xingyuanhou.

Therefore, Zhou Mingshan is not worried about what will happen to them.

She kept thinking about the re-election the day after tomorrow.

Even when I was learning the rules on the second day, I was absent-minded, and I was almost beaten by my aunt several times.

During the lunch break, Zhou Mingluo found her.

"I don't care if you really don't want to enter the palace or if you're deliberately playing tricks, but please use snacks, if you dare to affect me, don't blame me for being polite!"

No matter what Zhou Mingshan's reaction was, he left after speaking.

Zhou Mingshan smiled bitterly, although Zhou Mingluo said it politely, she had to admit that she said it in a timely manner, and her state was really wrong.

She has also experienced the danger in the palace, and here she is. But to start making this kind of mistake, it really shouldn't be.

No matter how worried you are about the re-election, you should first pass the current hurdle, otherwise you may not even be able to save your life.

After all, there are a large number of women participating in the draft. Even if Zhou Mingluo and Zhou Mingke are separated, they can not guarantee that others will follow the same rules.

In the next morning, when she learned the rules again, Zhou Mingshan woke up a lot.

She nodded slightly at Jia Xinyi's worried gaze in her inquiry. Signal yourself to be fine.

The day passed quickly, and the aunts who taught the rules finally finished the lesson.

They are all pampered girls, and at the end of this day, they have been tired and complaining for days, and when they have finished dinner and freshened up, they go to bed early one by one.

Zhou Mingshan was lying on the bed, although her body was a little tired, her brain was abnormally energetic.

She's thinking about what she should do tomorrow to lose the election.

One approach is safer, but the chances of success are not great.

The other method may take a little damage. But she can go out of the palace smoothly.

She meticulously sketched every detail, tossing and turning for a long time, until the drum outside sounded three times before falling asleep.

On the third day, the day of the re-election of the show girl.

The show girls who live in Changchun Palace got up early in the morning, and the palace maids also started to prepare early, bringing water and food, combing their hair and washing their faces, and they were busy one by one.

Zhou Mingshan sat in front of the dressing table, looked at the thick shadow under her eyelids in the mirror, and smiled wryly.

Concentration is still not enough......

"Four girls. How about a maid to help you with your makeup?"

Probably seeing that she had been sitting still, Yunluo, the palace maid who served their sisters, asked with a smile.

The pink standard palace dress has fair skin and does not look very old. There are obvious pear vortices on both cheeks, and the smile is very pleasing.

She nodded, "Okay." ”

Yunluo, who was allowed to do so, showed a sweet smile, walked behind Zhou Mingshan, opened the dresser and started to work, and at a glance he knew that he was a sharp hand.

Probably because of Zhou Mingshan's kind attitude. After Yunluo tied her hair in a bun, she asked with a smile, "The girl looks good, how about I paint a plum makeup today?"

Zhou Mingshan's heart moved, the right hand hanging by his side clenched tightly, and asked quietly, "Is this appropriate?"

Yunluo nodded, and the movements in his hands did not stop, "Of course it is appropriate, isn't it very popular in the capital recently?"

Indeed, I don't know where this plum makeup first came from, and it has been very popular in the capital recently.

Zhou Mingshan nodded when she heard this, and motioned for Yunluo to continue.

The aunt in the palace personally helped with the makeup, and she also kindly mentioned Jian Yiyi, of course she would not refuse.

There's more to her than that, though.

She looked at Yunluo's slender figure in the carved mirror, and asked, "Look at Aunt Yunluo's skillful rules, I don't know which palace she was in on an errand before?"

With so many people in the draft, the people who originally served in Changchun Palace are definitely not enough, and they must be transferred from elsewhere.

Yunluo poured powder on her face and replied, "The girl has won the prize, and the maid was assigned to this Changchun Palace after learning the rules, and she has never been to other palaces." ”

That's the people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Zhou Mingshan secretly wondered, who was secretly helping her?

She quietly opened the palm of her right hand, and there were a few dried plum blossom petals lying inside, which seemed to have a trace of residual fragrance.

This was sent by Jia Xinyi, who lived in the courtyard next door, early this morning.

At that time, as soon as she saw this plum blossom, she was sure that Jia Xinyi was not joking before, but really wanted to help her lose the election.

Because, today, Emperor Xianqing Jian Weizhao hates plum makeup the most.

She didn't know the reason, this was when the queen Su Xian helped her regain the emperor's favor in her previous life, and told her not to spread it.

At that time, she didn't dare to ask, and then she didn't have a chance.

No matter how Jia Xinyi found out, she used this plum blossom to remind her that it was best to paint a recently popular plum makeup.

And coincidentally, now Yunluo offered to paint her plum makeup.

Could it be that Jia Xin reminded her that it was not enough to call someone to help her?

Zhou Mingshan shook his head, it seemed unlikely.

She thought about it, could it be Concubine Ning?

Since the last time she entered the palace to ask for help, Concubine Ning has not moved.

Although she was very anxious, she never doubted Concubine Ning, because she believed that Concubine Ning was a person, and if she didn't want to help her, she wouldn't agree at that time.

So what the hell should she do?

If she only used this method, she couldn't guarantee that Emperor Xianqing would really put her brand.

If you are selected, won't you have to repeat the same path in your previous life?

But if you want to use another method, it's time to act at this moment, and you have to implicate others as little as possible, after all, it's not easy for everyone.

Zhou Mingshan was very anxious, like an ant on a hot pot, she bit her lip and looked outside.

Two of the show girls laughed and passed by her window, and the voices seemed to be heading in the direction of the meeting place, and they seemed to be ready.

Time waits for no one, and if you don't make a decision, it's going to be too late!

She closed her eyes and weighed it for a moment, deciding to play it safe.

That method is too risky, if something goes wrong, I'm afraid that Concubine Ning won't be able to protect her.

Regardless of whether Yunluo was arranged by Concubine Ning or not, she decided to believe in Concubine Ning once! )
