Because of the chaos outside Yanxi Palace, the second lady was disgraced, and after entering Yanxi Palace, she just quickly found a seat to sit down, and when she saw the familiar lady of the family, she just nodded and said hello, and didn't say anything else.

Ling Hu Zilu was in a good mood to follow behind the second lady, as long as she did what her eldest brother told after the dinner today, Lin Donghe's position as the side concubine would be her in the future, and if she took her time in the future, she didn't believe that she made Hu Zilu unable to be a concubine!

Linghu Pingxue followed behind the second lady with a smile, and saw Song Xiaoyou and Ding Juming whispering with a group of daughters of the family not far away, looking over to her side from time to time, no need to guess that Linghu Pingxue also knew that Song Xiaoyou and Ding Juming were talking about what she had just done.

These two people have been in the limelight below her all year round, and now that they have caught her sore feet, they naturally have to be proud. It's just that she made Hu Pingxue come here after doing enough work today, how could she be suppressed? There can only be one stunning four today, and it can only be her Linghu Pingxue!

Thinking of this, Ling Hu Pingxue walked to his seat quietly, and was not in a hurry to sit down, but gently raised his hand and pretended to hold the chair, but the next moment he almost pushed the chair away, and the whole person let out a low cry, leaned forward, and successfully attracted everyone's attention.

"Pingxue, what's wrong?" Seeing this, the second lady hurriedly got up and helped Linghu Pingxue.

Ling Hu Pingxue smiled, and his beautiful face was hidden at this moment, a trace of innocence, a trace of delicateness. The eyebrows and eyes are lowered, indescribably beautiful and elegant, and there is a weakness and touching that I see pity.

"It's all right, Mother." Linghu Pingxue smiled gently, if the delicate flowers bloomed under the warm afternoon sun, wrapped in a warm and dazzling light, people couldn't take their eyes off for a while.

Needless to say, Ling Hu Pingxue's elegance is stunning, and she also knows how to make the most of her strengths. As a result, everyone who was still talking about her back all looked at this side with jealousy or envy, and the sons of the family looked straight and were reluctant to look away.

Seeing that the effect had been received, Ling Hu Pingxue smiled shyly, with an innocent and weak expression, and slowly sat down. When the second lady saw this, she knew it. The corners of his mouth hooked up a faint smile, even if the prince neglected Pingxue today? It is not certain who the throne of the future emperor of this Celestial Dynasty will be!

Pingxue can calm the scene anytime and anywhere! Not a bad Lin Jane! Besides, are there any cats in the world that don't steal? Don't look at Lin Jian's ruthlessness now, if he tastes a beauty in the future, he won't be willing to let him go! What's more, there is also a queen there to put pressure on Lin Jian! She doesn't believe that Lin Jian disagrees?!

Ling Hu Zilu saw the smile her mother showed to her sister at the moment, and the jealousy in her heart was about to erupt. Since childhood, whether it is a grandmother or a mother, they have always favored their sisters, and the best is always for their sisters, even for marriage. What is in front of her sister is for her to pick and choose, and what comes to her is always what her sister doesn't want!

Now Lin Jian's attitude towards her sister makes Fox Zilu very happy! Why do all the men in the world revolve around her to make the fox turn around? Why can she only pick up what Linghu Pingxue has left! After tonight, she made Hu Zilu pass this level at the concubine selection banquet, and from now on, she doesn't have to look at the faces of the old lady and others! She is different from Linghu Pingxue, Linghu Pingxue has a choice, in front of her Linghu Zilu, at this moment, there is only Lin Donghe who can go!

——

Full Moon had already sat down with Linghu Spring at this moment.

The queen mother, the queen and the concubines have not yet arrived, and Lin Jian and Lin Dongyao and the princes have not yet appeared. Seeing that Linghu was sitting beside Full Moon obediently, Ling Huquan did not have any hostility and rejection towards Full Moon's sister, nodded unconsciously, and asked Full Moon with a smile,

"Girl, do you know what are the items for today's concubine selection banquet?"

"-I don't know." Full Moon hesitated and shook her head.

She remembered that in the previous life, there was no such concubine selection banquet. Since her rebirth, although the general environment and characters have not changed, some subtle changes have still taken place, and perhaps it is these subtle changes that have given her the opportunity and opportunity to rewrite history.

In the last life, she was the eldest daughter of the Hou Mansion, so she was the first to marry, after she married Lin Donghe, Linghu Pingxue was reluctant to marry as the crown princess, so that later the queen came to urge herself, but Linghu Pingxue was always unmoved, and then the prince was abolished, and Linghu Pingxue just had an excuse not to marry.

At that time, the full moon has always been Linghu Pingxue has never found the person he likes, and now it seems that it is just because after the prince was deposed, Lin Donghe has become more and more fledgling, and there is a momentum to replace Lin Dongyao's most favored position in the emperor's mind, and the old lady saw that Lin Donghe, who was used as a stand-in by them in the past, was expected to replace the prince and then ascend the throne as the emperor, so she was naturally unwilling to be occupied by the full moon, so she waited for ten years deliberately, just to let Linghu Pingxue ascend the throne.

In this life, many things happened a year earlier than the previous life, and as for this concubine selection banquet, it is also related to the rapid changes in the situation recently. The Queen Mother wants to see the loyalty and partiality of the people in the Qing Dynasty to the court, and has been tempted several times before, and today's concubine selection banquet can be regarded as the Queen Mother's last chance to some courtiers, even those who are vague and do not want to show their determination, at today's concubine selection banquet, they have to express and act.

"Auntie, I'm just here to see the excitement, what are the items of this concubine banquet, I don't know it's okay." The full moon smiled faintly, her eyes were shining, and there were no waves.

Ling Huquan smiled thoughtfully and continued, "Even if you don't know, you can't be defenseless. ”

"That's what my aunt said." Ling Huquan had something to say, and Full Moon nodded and continued to listen to her.

"This concubine selection banquet is personally organized by the Queen Mother, many details are not clear to the queen, only the Queen Mother knows, just to prevent the queen or other concubines from nepotism, I also just learned about the project of the concubine selection banquet."

Ling Huquan paused when he said this.

The reason why she maintains a good relationship with the Queen Mother on the surface is only because King Anping is dead, for the Queen Mother and the emperor, she Ling Huquan herself no longer has any threat, but in the eyes of the government and the opposition and the people, the Queen Mother and the emperor cannot slack off Ling Huquan by half a point. After all, King Anping had made great achievements in war, and he had saved the emperor's life, plus Linghuquan was fair and just, and he did not have any henchmen in the court, so he was clean and self-conscious. The Queen Mother is naturally happy to be this good person, and she is very close to Linghuquan.

"The Queen Mother knows my temperament, even if she sues me for choosing the project of the concubine banquet, I will not sue anyone. Anyway, it's already here, and you don't want to participate, so I'll listen to it with you. ”

"Yes, Auntie." Full Moon nodded, not asking more questions and doubts. At this time, she will listen to everything Linghu Quan said, and there will never be a mistake in listening to it.

"Today's concubine selection banquet is divided into three rounds. The first round is the free play of the daughters, the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are the same, each performing, and the top ten are taken. The second round is the queen mother's question, and the ten daughters write and answer at the same time, taking the top six. The last round is the most important thing, it is the princes who ask questions, which are answered by the six daughters, and finally the selection starts from the prince, in order of Lin Dongyao, Lin Donghe, and Lin Ran. However, even if she is selected, she may not be a candidate for a future concubine, because there is still a hurdle for the emperor to pass. ”

After Ling Huquan finished speaking, Full Moon nodded thoughtfully.

This Lin Ran is obviously older than Lin Jian and the others, but the right to choose falls in the end, on the surface, it seems to be an open concubine selection banquet, but he still can't escape the set of worshipping high and stepping on low.

There are more than 30 daughters of officials above the fourth rank in the DPRK and China, and there are only 10 people left in the first round of the game.

At this moment, the originally noisy hall suddenly quieted down, and everyone looked at the door, and then quickly got up and knelt down to greet them.

Only Ling Huquan was the emperor's holy decree present, so he didn't have to kneel.

Between the queen mother and Lin Jian and Lin Dongyao and other princes slowly walked into the hall, a dark yellow phoenix palace dress set off the queen mother's whole person is more majestic and atmospheric, carefully combed Feifeng Chaoyang hair bun is delicate and luxurious, and the queen mother's graceful face is more noble and domineering.

Next to the Queen Mother is the queen with a gentle smile, the queen is dressed in a fiery red palace dress, festive and dazzling, which is a little different from her usual gentle image.

On the other side of the Queen Mother, Lin Jian and Lin Dongyao walked side by side, Lin Jian was dressed in a dark yellow palace dress, the purple and gold hair crown was tied up like ink and green silk, the handsome face was free and sunny, the ink-colored pupils were warm and moist like water, and the eyes fell on the full moon accurately in the next moment, and the pupils flickered in an instant, and there was no joy or anger.

And Lin Dongyao, who was dressed in a dark golden slim brocade robe, had a cold expression, Xiao Ye was domineering, and his ink-colored eyes were calm and boundless darkness.

He and Lin Jian are cold and hot, but they both have distinct personalities.

But deep in his distinctive character, he is the same black and cold.

This proves that the two are half-brothers.

Lin Dongyao is cold on the surface and ruthless on the inside, while Lin Jian is warm on the surface and dark and cold on the inside. One is cold on the outside and cold on the inside, and the other is hot on the outside and cold on the inside, the same unruly belly is black and elusive.

Behind Lin Jian and Lin Dongyao, there are Lin Donghe and Lin Ran. Lin Dong's side is thin and thin, he looks like he is only eleven or twelve years old, his face is delicate and fair-skinned, he looks soft and weak, like a weak scholar, but his eyebrows and eyes are too clear and delicate, if he doesn't know him or the eighth prince Lin Nande, the full moon will think that he is more like a girl.
