Chapter 20: The Shadow of Love

As soon as Jirui got out of the car, a delicate fairy stepped forward to introduce the fairy gate, and Shuying smiled and nodded at the fairy, who was expressionless.

"This is the south gate of the heavenly realm, please come with me" said Ji Rui boarded an idle cloud, slowly flew across the sky, and after a short time, he saw that the white clouds gradually dispersed, and a huge light blue translucent crystal palace wall appeared, with a golden temple, shining with golden light, shining in the ultramarine sky.

Looking up at the sky, it was a clear sky, with a large number of clouds in the distance, exuding an auspicious atmosphere.

"This is the residence of the queens and concubines, the Golden Thread Palace, this harem is selected once every hundred years, sometimes once every three hundred years, and it belongs to the grand draft banquet of the Love Heaven Realm."

Jirui thought to himself, in the eyes of outsiders, our Qiu family is "Huaxu Jinling Autumn, pearls like soil, when will it be off".

But in fact, it has fallen into decay, since the death of his father, only his mother and brother are left to take care of the family business, but in the end it is not as good as when his father was alive.

Now, the family has pinned their hopes on me, which is the real reason why we came to Love Heaven, not just to visit my aunt's house. The rules of poetry and etiquette that my father taught me in the past have been very strict since I was a child, and I hope they can be used today.

Thinking all the way, I came to a palace, which was full of flowers, but it was silent, all of them held their breath, and they were arranged neatly in rows, and Xiuyun was also lined up.

Look at the other girls around, they are really all flowers and moons, each with its own merits, all kinds of beauties wearing red and green, but most of them look gaudy, only a few are quite personable, and at first glance they are the goddesses from the Qiongge of Xianshan.

When she got up early today, Jirui asked the maid to put on delicate makeup. Several layers of powder were applied thinly, a small amount and many times, but it was not thick. It can not only whiten and moisten the skin, but also look translucent and natural. The focus is on the delicacy of the facial features, and the rouge is used as an eyeshadow to draw a little touch, like a faint rainbow on the horizon.

The shadow in the crowd that day was moving, wearing a light three-green gold silk cloud swallow sprinkled flower skirt, a two-green tassel vest, embroidered with a few delicate lotus flowers, a skirt outside the skirt, the cuffs and neckline and the bottom of the skirt looming with a bright red lining, a pair of gold silk cloud swallow head green shoes.

There is a kind of gentleness and dignity between the expressions, and there is a cold fragrance exuding from the body, even if you don't speak, it can make people unforgettable and memorable, which is not comparable to those vulgar fans.

A few fairies stood at the front door, responsible for reading the name registration, and then went to wait for the candidates outside the main hall when they read the name, and suddenly heard the little eunuch read "Chu Hanxiang", Ji Rui had heard her mother say that the second lady of the Chu family was also preparing to participate in the selection of the Tiangong Show Girl, and she had seen it a few times when she was a child, and it should be her.

In addition to the four major families of Qiuwang Yanzhuang in Jinling City, no one knows that this Chu Mansion is the old relatives of Qiufu, and the two of them are very affectionate. It is a rich and gifted home, but it is a rare house.

He has a cousin in his family, that is, Qiu Jirui's brother Qiu Yige, who is the head of the Bishui Palace Guard in this heavenly palace, and it is ridiculous to say, he said: "I must have two fairy sisters to accompany me to study, so that I can understand in my heart, otherwise I will be confused." He often said to the palace guards who talked to him: "This fairy is extremely noble and pure, more noble than the beasts, fairies, birds, and exotic flowers and plants, and you must not surprise the fairy sisters in the palace, but when you want to talk to them, you must rinse your mouth with pure water and fragrant tea." ”

If he makes a mistake, he will gouge his teeth and pierce his eyes. Its tyranny, stubbornness, and all kinds of abnormalities. I only went in after school, and I saw those daughters, whose gentleness, peace, intelligence and elegance have changed their appearance, and there are many sisters in his family, and they are also a family of poets and hairpins, and now they are the third generation of single generations.

The eldest daughter of the Qiu family, named Qiu Feng, has married into the Heavenly Palace, and now lives in the Nan'an Concubine Palace, the Chu family sent the second lady Hanxiang to participate in the draft, although the second lady is a concubine, but good poetry, from the age of three or four began to practice calligraphy, and now has more than ten years of skill.

"Chu Hanxiang. The fairy boy immediately called her name, and the other four sisters arranged their clothes again, and entered the hall in turn.

The carved beams and pillars in the hall, shining and shining, brilliant and brilliant, the golden light on the throne is sitting on the emperor of heaven Wenren Shifu, about three thousand years old.

The narrator: The brilliant fairy is the queen of heaven, but her face is solemn. And they did not dare to look up at the people sitting in the temple,

I only heard the palace man next to him read: "Meng Pujia, the daughter of Meng Xunqing of the Demon Mansion of the Sea of Evil Sea, has been cultivating for five hundred and sixty years. ”

After reading the witch, he immediately said hello, and the Emperor of Heaven saw that she was fierce and aura, safe and flexible, and the number of years of cultivation was not short, and she was the best candidate for talented officials and girls in the Heavenly Palace, and nodded slightly to signal to stay.

When he was young, the immortal man read again: "Chu Hanxiang, the daughter of the Chu family of the General Mansion of the Jinling Provincial Tiren Academy in Huaxu Realm, has been cultivating for two hundred and sixteen years."

Han Xiang walked forward from the right side with a silk handkerchief in her hand, and saluted with a swaying gait: "The Emperor of Heaven and the Queen of Heaven are blessed with Jin'an." ”

Seeing that Xiuyun was delicate and weak, she was not as twisted as other show girls, and there was a dusty fairy aura in her bones, and asked: "Have you ever read the four books of Confucianism? ”

"Back to the queen's words, the courtiers have read four books, only a few words, and they still focus on female workers on weekdays. ”

"Not humble or arrogant, very polite. ”

The Emperor nodded and said, "The calligraphy is not bad", and motioned to the eunuch on the side to leave Xiuyun.

Then the palace man read: "Shuying-".

Shuying learned from Sister Chunxi's broken lotus steps, like a fairy concubine, gentle and generous, her demeanor was free, and her voice was quiet and gentle: "Shuying knocks on the emperor and queen of heaven, may my emperor live a long life, and may the queen have a long life." ”

The queen smiled: "She is really a beauty, very dignified, I once heard the queen mother say that she has a sister's daughter in her own family, born with skin like snow and knowledgeable." When I saw it today, I really behaved elegantly, and I liked it very much."

Shuying smiled and said: "Xie Niangniang praised, there are many sisters here, I dare not be ashamed, the courtiers respect the "Women's Rules", "Women's Training", and never forget" Say it and bow again.

The emperor saw that this woman had smooth skin, a slightly plump figure, and was dignified and elegant, with an otherworldly temperament, and very cold, and a Xinyi flower was painted on her forehead. There is a hint of coquettishness in the coldness, and there is a jasper hairpin inserted in the black hair, which is transparent and crystalline, and it looks as extraordinary as a goddess of the universe from a distance. is the best choice for the crown princess. He nodded to the queen.
