The Royal Summer Resort outside the city is quite busy, and it is all the show girls who gather this time. The ladies selected from the three provinces, as well as the ladies of the capital, will gather here, and there are more than 300 people in total, who are arriving one after another.

Xia Xiaodong and Lu Yunzhi did not choose to live together. According to Lu Yunzhi's construction, the two are separated, but it is easy to know more information, anyway, the houses of the show girls are not far from each other, and it is easy to meet and talk.

So, Xia Xiaodong found that he had returned to the house he lived in before, and the person in the same room was still Zhang Wenjuan.

Zhang Wenjuan looks thinner again, she was already thin, and now it seems that she can blow away with a gust of wind, and when she saw Xia Xiaodong, she just reluctantly pulled the corners of her mouth, put down her luggage, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

At least this time he was holding the things himself, and he didn't ask the rough maid of the villa for help.

On the eighteenth day, it was just a roll call to report and sort out the chores, and so on, and after sleeping all night, on the second day, the style was changed.

……

……

Three hundred and seventeen show girls stood neatly in the open space in front of the Yanbo Palace.

On the side of the clearing, a huge hourglass was erected.

At first, Xia Xiaodong didn't recognize that it was an hourglass - only after asking Lu Yunzhi did he know that he thought it was a clock, so he looked at it strangely for a long time.

The main thing is this so-called hourglass, which not only looks like a disc on the surface, but also has a pointer in the center of the disk, and there is a time disc around the pointer!

The huge hand did not run in a streamlined manner, but jumped every quarter of an hour.

When the hand pointed to the hour, two small doors suddenly opened in the middle of the time plate, and two small wooden figures came out of it.

The two little wooden figures were dressed in delicate red robes, with wooden drums tied around their waists, and drum hammers in their hands....... Clicking back again, the two small doors closed silently, and without looking closely, it was impossible to see where there was a door.

Xia Xiaodong was amazed and secretly strange in his heart. This hourglass, which resembles a 'clock', obviously requires extremely delicate gearing, and since there is such a capable person, it seems that the Konoha made by himself is not enough.

Stepping on the drumbeat of the time, a group of people came to the east, as if they had been summoned by the two little wooden figures.

The first are the two female officials - now Xia Xiaodong is still quite familiar with the clothes of the female officials of Shangyi, and her expression is very strict, and the people who follow behind her seem to be all female officials in the palace, but the quality should be lower.

Two Shang Yi, one surnamed Cui and one surnamed Lin.

Cui Shangyi is the main and Lin Shangyi is the deputy.

Xia Xiaodong was very suspicious that Cui Shangyi often did things like roll calls, because this person's voice was very loud, and when he spoke loudly, it sounded like a male voice, with a little low echo.

Cui Shangyi immediately delivered an opening speech, giving comprehensive guidance on the overall arrangement and macro orientation of this year's draft work.

Later, Lin Shangyi also delivered an opening speech, adding that the emperor, as the king of a country, attaches great importance to the work of this draft, and divides the specific work of etiquette, makeup, art, clothing, and general affairs.

Next, the female officials explained the specific arrangements separately, until the two little wooden men ran out again, and finally ended the content of this morning, and let everyone go to lunch.

Connecting with the previous waiting time, everyone stood for an hour and a half. As soon as the meal was announced, many people couldn't hold it anymore, and almost supported each other to eat, and some couldn't even eat.

Xia Xiaodong was fine, and was surprised to find that the Lu Yunzhi and Lu Yunsheng sisters were still in good condition.

"What is this," Lu Yunzhi said with a smile: "I've been slacking off for a while." In the past, our Lu family's boudoir had this standing posture class, and at least we had to be able to stand for two hours in a row without being out of shape, so that we could pass the test. ”

As he spoke, he picked up his chopsticks and reprocessed the dishes in front of him before he started eating.

In the end, everyone has a plate in front of them, and the plate contains several dishes, so there is no need to stretch out chopsticks to pick up the dishes, and there is no need for several pairs of chopsticks to stir in one plate.

Lu Yunsheng held the teacup beside him and sighed: "I really haven't practiced this for a long time." Just if you practiced well in the past, you shouldn't have thrown it down, who knows that anything else is okay, but your backache is terrible. ”

"That's right, Sister Xiaodong," since coming to the summer resort, everyone seems to have put aside all the things in the past, Lu Yunsheng is also much more natural to Xia Xiaodong, Lu Yunsheng leaned forward and whispered to Xia Xiaodong: "As long as you start eating later, don't talk anymore." In fact, there are people in the neighborhood who are secretly observing us. ”

"Oh?" That's what happened? Xia Xiaodong looked around quietly, and sure enough, he saw a few palace people dressed in gray and very inconspicuous clothes, who seemed to be handymen, but in fact they didn't do anything, just stood in the corner, observing the tables of the show girls.

The etiquette class will start in the afternoon, Xia Xiaodong seized the time, and while eating, he sorted out the information conveyed by the female officials in the morning.

One of the things that made Xia Xiaodong feel subversive the most was that the draft could not be withdrawn at will.

I originally wanted to come over for a long time to see the lively soy sauce, and I could almost withdraw it, but it turned out that if I didn't take it seriously, I would become a pit dad and a pit for the whole family.

Although the Xia family is not a real home, Xia Xiaodong has no plans to get into a pit.

Thinking of this, Xia Xiaodong also ate almost enough, put down his chopsticks, and saw that the Lu family sisters had also eaten - it is estimated that this fast meal has also been trained, and I have never seen them so fast.

asked in a low voice: "Cui Shangyi said before that if she was disqualified as a show girl because of a mistake, she would have to deal with her family according to the situation, is this true?" ”

"Of course it's true." Lu Yunsheng said: "The rules of the draft are almost the same as the rules in the palace, they are all very strict. ”

"There were two show girls who didn't come yesterday, and they only came early this morning." Lu Yunzhi said idly: "It has been retreated." According to the contempt of the royal disposition, his father was demoted to the same position and retained, but his mother's edict was taken away. ”

Actually killed two 'chickens', Xia Xiaodong looked at the many 'monkeys' around him, and suddenly felt a little cold.

It's just that it's a late arrival, and the consequences are so severe.

"The royal errand is not something you can do without doing it." Lu Yunsheng looked at Xia Xiaodong's expression, slowed down his tone, and popularized knowledge for her: "Anyone who enters the palace, if it is not given by God, even self-judgment is not allowed." ”

"If it is self-judgment, no matter what is involved, it will be punished as guilty, and if I am not dead, I will be dealt with if I am not dead, and if I succeed in self-judgment, I will be dealt with my family. Even if there is nothing, it is necessary to commit the crime of desertion and the family outside the palace. ”

Wow, I don't even have the right to die.

Xia Xiaodong almost drank the mouthwash.
