After the Spring Festival, the draft was once again put on the agenda by officials, and Zhu Yuanzhang made a large amount of money and was approved.

Everyone knows that the draft trend is unstoppable, and the emperor wants to use this to win the hearts of his ministers, and the ministers also want to consolidate the emperor's grace. This is a win-win situation for the monarch and ministers, as for the girls who are sent to the palace and the concubines of the harem, no one will care about their feelings and moods.

Ma Xiuying presided over the draft for Zhu Yuanzhang with a helpless mood, but fortunately, the prince's wedding was imminent, and Zhu Yuanzhang was embarrassed to make the draft ceremony too extravagant, and ordered 50 women to be selected nationwide to enter the palace. This number refers to the number after screening, which means that there will be fifty new concubines in the harem soon.

The household department screened layer by layer, kicked out some sick, disabled, and ugly people who really couldn't be selected, and the roster of the remaining school-age women was submitted to Zhu Yuanzhang. Zhu Yuanzhang hooked out fifty of them, and then asked Ma Xiuying to read them, intending to recruit Yizhi, and soon carried fifty girls into the palace with a soft sedan chair.

Most of the show girls who entered the palace this time were official dependents, and the daughters of several first-class adults were named beauties when they entered the palace, and they had their own bedrooms, and the show girls who did not have grades temporarily lived in Chuxiu Palace and waited for unified distribution.

The girl who can be sent to the palace is naturally ashamed, beautiful and moving, good background and good face make the concubines who came to watch and inquire overshadowed, in the face of youthful faces, the concubines are full of luxurious costumes have become a foil, and they all feel that they are getting old.

Looking at these girls who are full of spirit and confidence, Ma Xiuying really can't bear to hit them. The most indispensable thing in the palace is beauty, the emperor's love is as cold as water, today is you, tomorrow is her, even she will feel aesthetic fatigue against countless concubines and show girls, and when it comes to the next draft, how many can Zhu Yuanzhang remember, how many names can he call?

However, there is still a charming girl who has caught Ma Xiuying's attention, and this girl is said to be Li Shanchang's niece. The reason why Ma Xiuying attracted her attention was not because the girl was beautiful, nor because she was favored by Zhu Yuanzhang as Li Meiren when she entered the palace, but because Guo Hui personally begged to see Ma Xiuying and asked for Li Meiren and several show girls to live in the side hall of Jingyang Palace.

Since the last time Daoyan happened, Ma Xiuying and Guo Hui have not been in contact with each other for a long time, Guo Hui is pregnant and even invited, this will be for a few show girls who are willing to go out of the palace with a big belly and be low and small, I can't help but wonder if Ma Xiuying is tired of it.

However, speculation is speculation, Ma Xiuying is not good at refusing Guo Hui's request. Because the concubines have the intention of rejecting these newcomers, and are extremely reluctant to let the show girl live in their palace, Guo Hui's initiative to accept the newcomers can play a certain role model.

Xun Ying sarcastically said: "She obviously wanted to befriend Li Meiren when she saw Li Meiren and others in the eyes of the emperor." Li Meiren lived in Jingyang Palace, the emperor wanted to favor Li Meiren and would naturally go to Jingyang Palace, this woman was pregnant and restless, always thinking about seducing the emperor. ”

Ma Xiuying was silent, Guo Hui befriended Li Meiren really just to fix her favor? Yang Jieyu was favored before, and she didn't see Guo Hui invite Yang Jieyu to live in Jingyang Palace. She is extremely jealous, and often excludes and suppresses other concubines, can she really bear Zhu Yuanzhang pampering other women under her nose? And go to great lengths for her rival? Hehe, if you want to say that there is nothing strange in it, Ma Xiuying doesn't believe it anyway.

After thinking about it for a while, Ma Xiuying suddenly laughed, maybe Li Meiren's living in Jingyang Palace is not a bad thing, but it can allow her to find a breakthrough in Guo Hui's collusion with foreign ministers. She guessed early on that Guo Hui and Li Shanchang had a private connection, but the two acted secretly, so she never caught the handle, and this Li Meiren happened to be Li Shanchang's niece, and it is estimated that the real reason why Guo Hui befriended Li Meiren was because of Li Shanchang behind it.

However, Ma Xiuying couldn't understand Guo Hui's behavior, if Guo Huizhen had a relationship with Li Shanchang, she should keep a low profile and avoid suspicion, is it because she wants to ask for people with such fanfare, lest others not know about her relationship with Li Shanchang? Or is this a means she wants to cover up?

Anyway, it is good and bad for Ma Xiuying to let Li Meiren live in Jingyang Palace, Guo Hui has started, and the other concubines are naturally not good at refusing to move in with the show girl. She asked Li Meiren to summon her, "Concubine Hui is willing to accept you to live in Jingyang Palace, what do you think?"

"The concubine is willing to serve Concubine Hui. Li Meiren said softly, before entering the palace, Li Shanchang told her to make peace with Concubine Hui, and Concubine Hui could be her help in the palace.

The sound is like a yellow warbler coming out of the valley, which is eloquent and beautiful, making people feel numb in their bones. Ma Xiuying couldn't help but take a closer look at Li Meiren.

This woman is very good at dressing up, lightly sweeping her eyebrows and eyes, blushing and smiling, the light green silk skirt is attached to the body to outline a delicate curve, the low placket reveals the white and delicate collarbone, and the waist that is not easy to hold is more and more set off the plump breasts. is such a seductive beauty, no wonder Zhu Yuanzhang was the first to visit her after entering the palace.

Looking at Li Meiren with a smile and full of infinite charm, Ma Xiuying inexplicably felt familiar, she seemed to have seen such a behavior in a certain woman. After thinking about it for a long time, Ma Xiuying thought of Yu Suxue, and her face changed suddenly. No wonder she feels that something is wrong, a serious official lady can be shy and timid, can be generous, and even a little arrogant, but she will never act with flattery, because a good education does not allow them to make any offensive words and deeds, only the Qinglou woman or the woman who is used as a pawn by Ma Shixiong like Sun will be specially taught how to seduce a man in inadvertent actions.

Ma Xiuying asked coldly: "Are you really the niece of the Korean duke?"

Li Meiren's eyes quickly flashed a trace of panic, quickly calmed down, pouted aggrievedly, and asked pretending to be puzzled: "Why did the queen ask the concubine like this, the concubine is indeed the niece of the Korean duke, and the name of the concubine is on the Li family tree, and the queen can verify it." ”

Ma Xiuying closed her eyes, yes, with Li Shanchang's methods, it is too simple to fake a woman's life experience, since he dares to send Li Meiren into the palace, naturally everything is arranged, and sending someone to check it will only be in vain. Or maybe Li Meiren is really Li Shanchang's niece, but she has been specially taught.

No matter what the situation is, Ma Xiuying can't be happy, what is Li Shanchang's intention to send such a woman into the palace? Could it be that he doesn't control the government enough and wants to put his hand into the harem?

At this time, Li Shanchang learned that Guo Hui let Li Meiren live in Jingyang Palace, and he was so angry that he jumped to his feet, and the two of them were as stupid as pigs. His original intention was to make Li Meiren and Guo Huiming not get along with each other on the face, and secretly befriended each other, so that he could catch Ma Xiuying off guard, who knew that the two women got together without consulting him, it was really not enough to succeed and more than to lose!21010
