That look, revealing a deep chill, Qi Zheng didn't feel a tight in her heart, what she did attracted her, and she understood it in her heart, she looked at her in a daze and smiled coldly, Qi Zheng retracted her eyes and stopped looking at her, "Since she has been convicted, it is useless to look more, what she wants to do is her business, and she did the right thing"

"Father-in-law, this is an edict." Yun'er smiled and handed the edict to the eunuch in front of the table.

The eunuch slowly opened the edict with heavy eyes, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he said humbly: "It turned out to be the young lady of the Fu family, please wait inside the young lady, and the maidservant is waiting outside." As he spoke, he turned and pointed to the hall behind him, and then turned back to write down his name and family history.

Qi Zheng bowed in reply, ordered Yun'er to wait outside, and turned around to look at Yun Qing and Wen Yue and smiled. "Sister, let's go in first." Yun Qing said with a smile.

Qi Zheng nodded slightly, turned around and walked into the hall, facing the door is a wooden carved screen, faintly bright, behind which should be a small courtyard. In front of the screen, several eunuchs stood here to greet them.

"Girl, wait in the courtyard at the back." A eunuch said.

Qi Zheng walked around the screen, looked around the left and right, an extremely spacious square courtyard, and a house in front of it, but it looked solemn, and there were people guarding the door. There are several stone tables and benches in the courtyard, the left is a green wall, covered with vines, and the right is around the long corridor, and there are many beautiful girls sitting on the eaves of the corridor to rest, waiting for the next pass.

Qizheng walked to the courtyard, found a stone table and stool to sit down, without Yun'er's company, Yunqing and Wenyue have not yet come in, Qizheng felt lonely for the first time, sitting in front of the front hall and back door, looking up at the door, waiting for Wenyue and Yunqing.

After waiting for a long time, I didn't see the two of them come in, and suddenly I felt that someone blocked my vision, it was a show girl, sitting on the stool in front of Qizheng, and turned her head to look at Qizheng. Qi Zheng smiled back slightly, and saw that she was wearing a pale pink Luo skirt embroidered with gold thread begonias, green silk buns, white jade inlaid with gold beads, and tassels dangling. She smiled faintly and looked back.

"Sister," Wen Yue pulled Yun Qing to the front.

Qizheng looked up at the two: "Sit down and wait." ”

Yun Qing calmed his face, walked to the table and sat down, and Wen Yue sat aside.

Qizheng sensed Yunqing's displeasure and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"Sister, you don't know, the eunuch at the door just now was kind to us, and he asked us to turn around for a while, looked at it for a long time, and asked us what we knew, in short, I interrogated him for a long time, why didn't I see him do the same to other show girls, at least, my sister came in very smoothly just now." Yun Qing complained.

Qi Zheng looked left and right, frowned and said softly: "Be quiet, don't be heard by the people inside, how can you say this kind of thing casually here." ”

"Originally, they looked down on people with dogs' eyes, and when I became the emperor's favorite concubine in the future, it would be good to have them, but this reminded me that I can't resign myself to fate in the future." After Yun Qing finished speaking, she noticed that there was a strange woman sitting next to her, Yun Qing turned her eyes cautiously to look at her, as if she didn't hear it, she still looked into the distance.

Yun Qing turned his eyes reassuringly.

Qizheng heard a sneer, raised her eyes, and the woman slowly got up and left.

Yun Qing looked at the woman's departing figure and said disdainfully: "If you hear it, you hear it, why do you have to laugh like this." ”

"Qing'er, you can say a few words." Wen Yue persuaded.

"You all come here and stand still." A eunuch came out of the house and stood on the stone steps in front of the door.

Immediately the crowd gathered around.

The eunuch opened the booklet in his hand, raised his voice and said, "Later, the people whose names are called by our family will go in, five people at a time, and wait for the front to come out and the back ones to go in, understand?" ”

The show girls replied in unison, "Yes." The eunuch nodded: "Well, then our family will start, Wang Xi, Xia Luanxi, Liang Ling'er, Shen Qiuci, Su Jingyun." ”

The five show girls dressed up and stepped into the house, and the other show girls did not dare to scatter slowly, still standing in place and waiting. Everyone was looking forward to it, and the five show girls came out of the hall after a while, some smiling, and some seemed to want to cry without tears.

'It's really going to start, there's no turning back, I can't go back, I can't go back, I don't know what will happen in the future, God knows. ’

"Sister, they're out." Yun Qing saw that Qi Zheng was stunned, and hurriedly leaned into his ear and said.

Qi Zheng looked up at them, and her eyes fell on her.

"Sister, look, it's her, she seems to have been chosen, God really has no eyes." Wen Yue glared at the show girl who wanted to harm her, and said sharply.

Yun Qing hurriedly asked, "Sister Wenyue, who is it?" ”

"That's it, that's the ......." Before Wen Yue finished speaking, Qi Zheng reached out and covered Wen Yue's mouth: "This matter should not be mentioned again." ”

Wen Yue looked at Qizheng, although she didn't understand why Qizheng was like this, but she still nodded in response.

Show girls went in in groups, and came out with laughter, tears, happiness, and disappointment, the rise and fall of the family and the honor and disgrace were tied to them, and today it was only decided whether they could step into the Zihua Gate and the imperial city of the Daning Dynasty.

"Fu Qizheng, Wen Yue, Chen Xiying, Tong Shujin, He Youzhu." The eunuch shouted.

Qizheng and Wenyue also straightened their clothes and prepared to go in.

"Sisters, go ahead, probably next time it'll be me." Yun Qing looked at the two of them and said with a smile.

Qi Zheng and Wen Yue nodded, and stepped into the hall together, facing the door of the hall was still a marble screen, blocking everything in the room, entering the hall, Qi Zheng looked left and right, and came in together, as well as the show girl who laughed at Yun Qing. This hall is also quite spacious, and when I walked to the front of the hall, I saw a long desk in front of me, and three people in official uniforms sitting behind it, which should be the minister of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Qizheng and his party stood in a row facing the table and saluted.

"Submit your name, fatherhood, and start with you." An official in the hall spoke lightly, and his eyes fell on Wen Yue.

"The little girl Wenyue, her father is Wenshan, the governor of Xizhou." Wen Yue said carefully, for fear that something would go wrong.

As soon as Wen Yue finished speaking, she heard someone laughing, and whispered to the person next to her: "Xizhou, a governor in a poor and remote country, what a small official it should be." Qi Zheng looked at the situation, and it was not the show girl who was mocking Yun Qing who spoke, but the one next to her, but the show girl also had a sneering look. Wen Yue's face suddenly turned extremely red.

The officials in the hall cleared their throats, suggesting that they were quiet.

"The courtier's daughter Tong Shujin, her father is Tong Yuan, the governor of Liangguang." Shujin said lightly, and glanced at Wen Yue with a little arrogance.

"The courtier's daughter Chen Xiying, her father is Chen Yi, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry."

It turned out that she was the daughter of the Chen family, no wonder she laughed at what Yun Qing said, but her mind was very deep, and she didn't want Tong Shujin to have her disdain for Wen Yue written on her face. Qi Zheng was thinking about it, only to feel three eyes shooting, looked up, the three officials were looking at Qi Zheng, it turned out to be her turn.

Qizheng hurriedly lowered his head and said respectfully: "The courtier's daughter Fu Qizheng, her father is Fu Renxian, a scholar of the Cabinet University. With that, Qi Zheng exhaled lightly and glanced beside her, Chen Xiying and Tong Shujin both lowered their heads, but Wen Yue looked at her in surprise.

"The courtier's daughter He Youzhu, the father of Zhennan Wang He Heng."

Qi Zheng felt that this voice seemed to be familiar, and turned his head to look, standing next to him was the show girl who wanted to paint a flaw, it turned out that she was a county lord with a foreign surname, and her father was actually the king of Zhennan, who had made great achievements.

The officials in the hall discussed with each other for a while before they said, "Go to the back, and those who pass will pass." ”

Qi Zheng and the others walked through the door next to the table and walked into the inner room, and there were several people dressed as palace maids waiting here, and one of them was a little older.

After a while, Qizheng and the others walked out of the inner room, followed by a palace maid, who walked to the side of the case, bowed and said, "My lord, several girls have passed." ”

An official nodded, and the maid retreated into the inner room. "Wen Yue, Tong Shujin, Chen Xiying, Fu Qizheng, He Youzhu, go home and wait, there will be a horse to pick you up and wait for you to enter the palace in three days."

"Yes." The five replied and left the house.

Walking outside the door, before Qizheng and Wenyue walked down the steps, they heard Shujin's joking: "It turns out that the governor's daughter can also be selected, which is really an eye-opener, but you look good, the emperor may look at you a few times." ”

"Shujin, you also said that she looks good." Xi Ying said without a trace of expression, moved his steps again, and walked out of the courtyard, Tong Shujin didn't say anything more, and went out with Xi Ying.

Wen Yue may have been selected and was happy in her heart, and she didn't care about Shujin's words, so she pulled Qizheng and walked to Yunqing's side.

"Did the sisters choose?" Yun Qing asked.

"Yes." Wen Yue smiled and nodded vigorously, and said, "So Qing'er, you must be able to choose too." ”

Yun Qing smiled.

Wen Yue looked at Qizheng with a little envy: "It turns out that my sister's father is a cabinet scholar, and my sister really can't see it at all." ”

"What, Cabinet Scholar, Fu Jia?" Yun Qing was surprised.

Qizheng nodded his head and said, "It's not surprising that my father is a university scholar, Qing'er, you don't know yet, even the show girl who laughed at you at the stone table just now is the daughter of Shangshu." ”

Yun Qing was even more surprised: "Shangshu's daughter? My words must have upset her, my father is just a small general sentence, what should I do in the future. ”

Qizheng smiled: "Don't think about the future, it's coming to you soon, let's take care of it for now." ”

Yun Qing responded, and said, "Sisters, go back first, I can't say when it will be my turn." ”

Wen Yue smiled: "Okay, Sister Qizheng and I will leave first, Qing'er, don't worry." ”

Qizheng and Wenyue said goodbye to Yunqing and walked out of the small courtyard, and the maid ring brought by Yun'er and Wenyue immediately came up.

"How's it going, Miss?" Yun'er asked anxiously.

Qizheng didn't speak, just nodded slowly. Yun'er understood what Qizheng meant, smiled, clapped her hands and said, "Great, Miss has been chosen, Miss, let's go home, the old lady and the second miss must be in a hurry." ”

"Sister go back first, I live in Yuefu Inn, if my sister looks for me, go there." Wen Yue said.

Qi Zheng smiled: "Okay, then I'll go back first." ”

After that, he left with Yun'er.

Wen Yue stood in place and said with a smile: "Xing'er, I'm about to enter the palace, the good days of our family are coming, you will go back to Xizhou in three days, there are not many people in our family, when I am not there, you have to take care of my father." Xing'er said happily: "Well, I know, the master must be very happy to know that Miss has been chosen, Miss, let's go back." Wen Yue nodded, turned to move forward, and said, "Of course Dad is happy, he spent so much money to dredge up the relationship and make me a draft girl, and now the money is not in vain." ”

Xing'er followed behind and said with a smile: "Miss is the most beautiful show girl in our Xizhou, and the master has long said that Miss will definitely be selected." ”

Wen Yue smiled, didn't speak, and moved away.
