Since the palace was preparing to participate in this feast of flowers, the Ministry of Rites had already prepared for it, which was originally a feast of flowers held by the people themselves, but it became even grander after joining the imperial court.

Although I heard about it from the mouth of the queen, there was more or less the meaning of the emperor in it, and the Hundred Flowers Feast used to be held by many merchants, and the participation of the imperial court was a kind of support for the merchants.

On May 12, the Hundred Flowers Feast officially began, Ping Ning begged to go to the Prince's Mansion, and by the way went out of the palace to see the Hundred Flowers Feast, Jiang Ruyin couldn't beg here, she also went to the emperor.

The final result was that the emperor agreed, and asked the second prince to take them to the prince's mansion first, and then go to the flower feast.

When he came back in the evening, Ping Ning happily talked to Jiang Ruyin about the lively scene of the feast of flowers, the people who participated in the Kao Competition, the flowers were all beautiful girls from thirteen to fifteen years old, and there were people marching in the cleaned up street market all day, and there was a big open space at the end of the street in Lin'an City, and a big platform had been erected on the open space.

"There are so many beautiful flowers, and the second brother doesn't know them." Pingning also bought several pots back, and on such days, the business of the small stall will also be very good, selling candy people, tying flowers, and making cakes, Jiang Ruyin can also imagine the lively scene.

On May 18, the people in the palace went out of the palace to see the feast of flowers.

The open space at the end of the street is divided into a piece of land that is used to house the people in the palace, the position is high, the view is very good, and below are some officials and merchants who invited the review, Jiang Ruyin When they arrived, the Kao race had just begun, and the flower shelf set up on the platform in the middle was a huge basket, the basket was full of flowers, and it was erected high, and the air around was filled with all kinds of fragrances.

The main thing about the Kao competition is that each flower lover brings up his most proud works to show everyone, some are held by hand, and some are carried by several people to carry flower pots.

Jiang Ruyin also got a booklet in their hands, which recorded the flowers in the order of appearance, and behind the order was a square piece of paper sticked, if you think which one is good, which one is the flower king in your heart, then tear up the small piece of paper, and there will be people counting it at that time, but it mainly depends on how the people on the judges' table decide.

The booklet is very exquisite, the cover is a peony flower with gilding, and there are traces of some petals cut on the edge, Jiang Ruyin glanced at a few pots of flowers on the table, this zuihou day, there are only about thirty people left to participate in the Kao competition, and they will soon see it.

After the booklet was taken away, it didn't take long for the Hundred Flowers Fairy to be elected.

This is the highlight of the triennial feast of flowers, these women who participate in the election of the Hundred Flowers Fairy are still very high, their appearance is basic, they cannot be more than fifteen years old, they must not be less than thirteen years old, regardless of whether they are rich or poor, their family background must be innocent, and there is nothing to commit adultery.

This is the opportunity for many women to fly on the branches and become phoenixes, there are relatively few who marry into the family compound, the family attaches great importance to the right family, but there are many people who marry into rich families, looking at the stands sitting around, most of them are rich merchants, their requirements for marrying wives and concubines are not so high, they are good-looking, this feast of flowers, virtually has also become a platform for them to find.

Concubine De lowered her head and whispered to Jiang Ruyin, "How do I think this looks like choosing an oiran." "These women who participated in the Hundred Flowers Fairy Competition, although they were not wearing revealing clothes, could perform their talents in public, and no matter how they looked at it, they didn't feel serious.

Jiang Ruyin took the newly handed booklet and replied to her, "These are all innocent girls, how can they be the same as those who choose Oiran." ”

Concubine De naturally knew that these people had innocent family backgrounds, but if her brother wanted to marry one back, she would definitely be the first to object, "I think the form is similar, these people who want to participate, in addition to the not low reward, there must be something else." "Famous, probably married well.

Jiang Ruyin doesn't think there's anything wrong with this, the born haode, there are arrangements all the way, there is no need to worry about food and clothing, let alone don't worry about marrying badly, but if you are born not haode, everything has to work hard by yourself, the Hundred Flowers Feast is a platform, even if you want to fly on the branches and become a phoenix, under the right circumstances, there is nothing wrong with not harming others.

"Naturally, they want something else." Jiang Ruyin said with a smile, "In a woman's life, there is nothing wrong with wanting to marry well, not to mention that many of these girls are specially trained to participate in this Hundred Flowers Fairy Competition." ”

"Yes, there is indeed such a place among the people, which specially adopts young and good-looking little girls to go in, train them, teach them dance, and when they grow up, some of them are sent to various families to be dancers, and some can participate in this." Yan Zhaoyi on the side explained, "When the concubine was young, my father traveled and saw this. ”

It is impossible for them to encounter such an encounter, Concubine De sighed, "Then these girls can look high in their hearts." ”

Jiang Ruyin smiled without saying a word, and a noble man sitting below them was surprised, "Look, it's started!" ”

Everyone's eyes turned to the stage, and more than 20 women on both sides of the stage rushed up, first making their first appearance.

After giving the first impression to everyone, the twenty or so women stepped back, and with the sound of music, they came on stage one by one to perform.

I watched a draft during the general election, and Jiang Ruyin seemed uninterested in this performance, but the people around the stands cheered.

Especially when a few of them have outstanding faces, they attract everyone's attention as soon as they appear, dancing, playing the piano, and writing and painting, all of them are extraordinary.

Waiting for this circle of people to perform, it was already afternoon, after Zuihou stepped down, the judges launched a heated discussion, Jiang Ruyin looked at two of the arguments with red faces, and couldn't help but smile, this is a big pity for men, it is not their favorite woman to become a flower fairy.

The people on the judges' table were arguing, and several of the officials came to ask the queen's opinion with the booklet, and the queen glanced at Concubine De and Concubine Xian, "The palace is also a little dazzled, I really can't choose, what do you think." ”

"It's not good for the concubines to look at the ones that caused an uproar, it's not a way for men to look at women, and let's look at them, how to choose." Concubine De didn't take this stubble, Jiang Ruyin smiled and gave advice, "It's better to say a few more and let them choose by themselves." ”

The queen nodded, and said a few words to the palace maid who was serving on the side, and the palace maid took the booklet to the official who came to inquire, only to see that the official's face was stunned, and then took the booklet and went back

In the end, he got the name of the Hundred Flowers Fairy, which was one of the highest voices when he first performed, and his appearance and talent were naturally first-class, this woman, after winning the name of the Hundred Flowers Fairy, many people would go to say goodbye, and it was a great honor for many people to go back to the Hundred Flowers Fairy.

After the Hundred Flowers Fairy received a high reward, Jiang Ruyin and the others left the scene first, and returned to the palace, the sky was slightly dark, for many concubines who had never left the palace since entering the palace, this Hundred Flowers Feast was very interesting.

For several days in a row, the palace talked about this feast of flowers, and the follow-up impact was probably the news of whose family the twenty or so women finally fell to, and while talking, some people even said that they saw several of these twenty or so women in the palace dancer workshop.

Some people said that someone went to see it, and after seeing it, it was confirmed that five of the twenty or so women are now in the Mailing Workshop.

There are many women who can sing and dance in the palace dancers' workshop, all of whom want to perform when there is a banquet in the palace, most of these women are cultivated by small palace maids, and they can leave the palace when they reach a certain age, so it is rare to find them directly from outside the palace.

Jiang Ruyin knew that the queen had made some arrangements before they returned to the palace, and in the end there were five women who were willing to come to the palace, no matter what the reason, the Mailing Workshop was a lot more colorful because of their arrival.

After these women have carried out short-term palace rule training, they will soon appear at the banquet in the palace, Jiang Ruyin is just an accident, these things do not need to be done by the queen herself, and on weekdays, a few special grandmothers in the palace are responsible for this training, how could the queen think of choosing a few to come in

In mid-June, the summer resort visited the garden, and soon these women had the opportunity to perform, and this year's summer resort garden party, the emperor and the ministers also went, which also followed several influential merchants in the market.

Jiang Ruyin and the others were watching the play on the stage, and someone from the dancer workshop went to perform She also learned afterwards that when the five women performed in front of the emperor and the ministers, one of them danced and almost fell into the emperor's arms, but was avoided by the emperor, and the person didn't have time to stand firmly, and wanted to get up with the dancing movements, and fell on an official on the side.

The official is also a pity character, you have fallen down, I can't help it, so I hugged the girl, this hug, you have to be responsible for others, no.

The two veteran ministers on the side said that they had to ask the official to take charge of the family, and the dancers in the palace were all innocent girls, and they went out of the palace after a few years, although they were older, but they were all able to marry seriously, so a hug and a hug, the reputation of the girl's family was gone.

The official was blushing when he was said, he didn't want to, the emperor could avoid it, he couldn't see people falling, how could he think that helping someone would achieve such a result.

The emperor immediately made him the master, accept it, it's still okay to be a concubine, if you don't want to, take it home and dance for yourself.

The official took it with a dishful face, there is a tigress at home, he really likes it, and he doesn't dare to accept it, or the emperor is in charge, what should I do now, put it at home for it, don't dare to touch it.

After listening to what Qingqiu said, Jiang Ruyin couldn't hide the smile on the corner of her mouth, it seems that these girls are not low-spirited, they don't want to be other people's concubines, and they still want to enter the palace, too, when they enter the palace, this one flies on the branches, but they really become phoenixes

The author has something to say: the second watch, Ryoko will work hard to see if she can make the third watch today.

Answering the girl's question, the number of words of the concubine should be around 600,000, and it won't be too much if it exceeds [cough cough, it's expected, this won't be too long]
