Yan Yungu was stunned, "This Guo Wenying really has some ability, I didn't expect to solve the matter in less than a day, it seems that Yulan has met a strong opponent this time." ”

Yan Yulan has been waiting for news from the palace all day today, and the emperor's will has not been lowered for a long time, which makes her feel very uncertain. She couldn't stay in the room any longer, so she went to the antechamber, and when she saw her father's serious expression, she felt a chill in her heart. It still doesn't seem to be possible!

She asked in a low voice, "Dad, did you say that your daughter is really out of play this time?"

"It's hard to say. Yan Yungu sighed, his daughter has been big-hearted and arrogant since she was a child, and she always wants to marry the first person in the world. Speaking of which, the emperor's talent and appearance are extremely outstanding, and they can be regarded as a good match, but it is a pity that the emperor has a heart, and how easy is it to be favored? The goddess has no intention of welcoming the king, and she forcibly stuffed her daughter into the palace, and she does not know whether it is good for her or will harm her in the end.

He instructed the butler, "Keep an eye on it, if there's any news over there, report it as soon as possible." ”

"Yes. ”

The butler bowed and retreated.

Guo Yixian asked for the excerpt of the crime and handed it over, and in less than a day, the emperor's will came down, blaming Guo Yixian for being drunk and talking nonsense, making him suspend his post and think about it behind closed doors at home.

This time, the Guo family lost face, I don't know how many people laughed behind their backs, and Guo Yixian's errand not long after he arrived was also ruined. He was depressed in his heart, and he really stayed at home for a few days and didn't go out.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Guo Wenying found her aunt and the Duchess of Dingguo, wanting to get her mother's dowry back.

When Mrs. Lu heard that her sister-in-law's dowry was in Fu Ying's hand, she immediately exploded and scolded Fu Ying for not being a thing. immediately took a sedan chair to Guo's mansion and forced Mrs. Fu to hand over the dowry.

Mrs. Wu also said good things, saying that Guo Wenying was about to enter the palace, and marrying into the palace was a certainty, so how could she not prepare a dowry? If outsiders knew, they might not think what they would think of the Hou Mansion. The Yongding Marquis Mansion is not good, that is, the Guo family is not good, the Guo family has caused too much gossip recently, it is really a loss of face, and people are pointing at them when they go out to pay respects.

As a duchess of the country, she naturally can't tolerate this, although Mrs. Fu is an elder, but she is too out of line, how can she take the entire Hou Mansion as a bet in order to deal with her granddaughter?

The two of them were talking for Guo Wenying in every word, and Mrs. Fu was so forced that she had to let someone go to Fu Ying's residence to take out some valuable ones. Since Fu Ying's death, these things have gradually been handed over to the old lady, and she was sad for a while, and she didn't have the energy to take care of them, so she just threw them there.

Guo Wenying took out her mother's dowry list and compared them one by one, she didn't want to take advantage of the Hou Mansion, as long as she took her mother's dowry back. It's just that after so many years, Fu Ying passed by again, and the dowry was already incomplete, some were given to Guo Xiuzhi as a dowry, and some shops and land were sold. In the end, only half of them remained.

Mrs. Lu's face immediately drooped, and she insisted that the Guo family give an explanation, how could there be a dowry for the wife of the stepfamily? This Guo family is simply unruly, too unorthodox.

Mrs. Fu gritted her teeth and refused to speak, but later Guo Yixian was in charge, and allocated some fields and shops from the public school to make up the dowry. He also felt ashamed of Guo Wenying, and tried his best to pick up some good ones to make up for it. A good family is like this, he is also depressed, speaking of which, it is because he is not strict with his family and spoils Fu Ying too much, which caused so much trouble.

He wanted to be kind to Guo Wenying, but unfortunately he had made a big mistake for so many years, and there were too many estrangements in his heart, so it was impossible to sit down and talk about it calmly. It is even more impossible to live a good life like ordinary people, with filial piety to fathers and sons.

Guo Wenyun and Guo Xiuzhi both regarded Guo Wenying as an enemy, but they also knew that they couldn't deal with Guo Wenying, and they were asked by Mrs. Fu to hide from Guo Wenying, so they both had self-knowledge and silenced on the side, and they didn't dare to run over to provoke her.

In this way, she can count a few days of peace.

Three days later, the draft was announced, and the household department drew up a roster, and there were a total of 10 people who participated in the election, except for five in Beijing, and the others were all from other provinces. It was about the household department that felt that the number of five people was too ugly, and the emperor's face was damaged, so he added ten people. Of course, it must be required by the Holy Decree, and they are all old girls over the age of nineteen.

On the day of entering the palace, Guo Wenying began to prepare early in the morning, and Mrs. Lu also came to the house to help her dress.

Seeing Guo Wenying's unhappy face and unwilling appearance, he couldn't help but persuade in a low voice: "The emperor looks very kind, why do you look like you're going to die?"

Guo Wenying hung her head and lay on the dresser, looking loveless, "Uncle, you don't know, I have been with the emperor for seven years, I know best whether he is good or bad, he is used to torturing people, I am really tired of him, when I think of living with him for the rest of my life in the future, I feel that there is no point in living." ”

Mrs. Lu laughed, "How can the emperor be as bad as you say?"

Guo Wenying sighed, recalling the bits and pieces of their relationship, there was no trace of sweetness, and it was full of diaphragm. She and he were bullying and anti-bullying, fighting wits and courage for so long, it was just a struggle, why did it finally evolve into love?

Feng Jingting said that he really liked her, and he saw the hell when he liked her, according to her, maybe he didn't think he had tortured her enough, and he regarded her as a boring spice for life in the palace.

Seeing that she insisted on thinking so, Mrs. Lu didn't know what to persuade again, so she said, "Okay, the car will naturally go straight to the bow of the boat, maybe you won't be able to choose." ”

That's true, maybe you can't choose it.

Guo Wenying laughed suddenly, she had a scar on her back, and she couldn't pass the physical examination. Fortunately, Feng Jingting didn't know, he thought he had seen her body, and he expected her to be fine. As everyone knows, she turned her back to him that day, and she didn't let him see the scar on her back at all.

In fact, there are quite a few people who participate in the draft every year, but there are not many women who can finally enter the harem and be concubines for the emperor, and the selected girls have to undergo a strict physical examination before entering the palace. The royal family will understand and test their age, physiology, psychology and other aspects.

During the medical examination, each procedure is very careful. The appearance is delicate, the figure is long, and the physiology is not tolerant of the slightest flaw, even if there is a small black mole on the skin, it will be eliminated.

All the girls who are photographed are beautiful, and finally they are all dragged to the harem by car for selection. After choosing, it is necessary to make another selection, mainly for physiological examination, to see if it is a virgin, whether there are physical defects, and to pick out the most beautiful girl for the emperor's luck.
