The timid ones are all mouthful, but they are unconvinced, "I am going to be a favorite concubine in the future, and I will talk about what happened to the current Qing concubine?" Isn't it a first-come, first-served issue? ”

The women who were being examined looked at this woman with a tone higher than the sky, but she was a bright beauty, but anyone with a discerning eye knew that a person as brainless and swaggering as them would definitely not be able to go far in this palace.

The grandmothers are also used to seeing this kind of brainless person who can only play tricks, and they don't want to pay attention to her.

Seeing that everyone's eyes were on her, the woman felt an unprecedented sense of attention, and she even wanted to say something unashamed, but just as she was about to speak, she suddenly stumbled a few steps, and finally fell to the ground.

"This ......" The people around him took a few steps back, and no one dared to help them.

But at that moment, several more people fell to the ground.

At this time, the grandmothers panicked, and hurriedly called someone to pass on the imperial doctor, knowing that if something went wrong at this time, the emperor would blame him, and no one could afford it.

When the imperial doctor came, there were more than half of the women to be selected.

"That's good." The grandmothers also discovered that the fallen were all talented and beautiful, and those who were left behind were some mediocre or even slightly ugly women.

But now, what has happened so much is that even if I am afraid that His Majesty will be held responsible, I can't hide it.

Who would have thought, after Xiao Shujun knew about this, he actually said that he would let the rest of the women come to the palace first, although the rest were mediocre-looking, but now they can only do what His Majesty wants.

When everyone arrived at the top of the main hall, Qin Kexin was obviously taken aback, originally thought that someone had fallen because of heat stroke, but the more Qin Kexin looked, the more wrong it became, why did all the beautiful women he saw just now disappear?

"What the hell is going on?" Seeing that Xiao Shujun didn't care about this matter, Qin Kexin could only ask the grandmother who had just been examined.

At this time, Su Lianrong, who was sitting on the side, also wanted to know what was going on.

Those grandmothers were afraid that one would accidentally say something wrong, so they were cautious: "The imperial doctor said that the women who fainted were just suffering from heat stroke." ”

"How can it be just heat stroke, just pick some good-looking heat stroke?" At this time, Su Lianrong was also a little anxious, because Su Lianrong was very concerned at this time, so she deliberately investigated before this selection and found out a few women who were among the best in appearance and talent.

Thinking that if I say a few good words for them in the main hall today, I will definitely be able to make His Majesty elected, but now, none of the women in Su Lianrong's previous photos have appeared in the main hall, how can she not be in a hurry?

"Maybe the good-looking ones are weaker and can't help but be more windy." At this time, Xu Qingran opened his mouth seemingly inadvertently.

got a roll of the eyes from Su Lianrong, and Su Lianrong thought to herself that Xu Qingran was also the one who said such stupid remarks.

Qin Kexin felt more and more that something was wrong with this matter, and continued to ask Mama: "You honestly explain, did you have anything unusual just now?" ”

When those grandmothers heard this, they hurriedly thought about it carefully, trying to find some clues, so as to prove that it was not their own dereliction of duty that caused everyone to faint.

Suddenly, a grandmother spoke: "Queen Qiyu, the one just now is all going on in the process, but just ......" There seemed to be some worries in the middle of speaking.

Qin Kexin keenly smelled Mama's concerns, "What happened just now?" But you say it's okay, and this palace will make sure that no one will retaliate against you for this. ”

got the protection of the queen's mother, and the mother also became bold, "Just now, Concubine Qing's personal maid was ordered by Concubine Qing to deliver herbal tea......" After Mama finished speaking, she quickly looked at Concubine Qing with her peripheral vision, and between them, Concubine Qing stared at herself with cold and terrifying eyes, and quickly lowered her head.

"Concubine Qing, what's going on?" Su Lianrong couldn't sit down a little when she heard what her grandmother said, and thought to herself that Xu Qingran really made a stumbling block from this song, after all, she had the motive to do so.

But Xu Qingran obviously didn't want to admit anything, even at this time, he still pretended to be clear and said leisurely: "What does my sister mean by asking?" My sister is also kind enough to give them herbal tea, not to mention that everyone has drunk those herbal teas, so how can the rest of them be fine! ”

Qin Kexin listened to what Xu Qingran said and it was not unreasonable, thinking that this matter could not be easily concluded, and it had to be investigated.

So he turned his head to look at Xiao Shujun and said: "Your Majesty, if you don't choose a concubine, you should wait until the concubines who fainted in a few days are better, and let the concubines investigate the real reason for this matter in these days." ”

But Xiao Shujun obviously didn't want to wait a few days to say, "Or choose the following people to enter the palace as concubines, those who fainted are not blessed by themselves, but if the queen wants to check, the two are not in conflict." ”

Of course, Xiao Shujun knew that at this time, all the people standing under the hall were crooked melons and cracked dates, but Xiao Shujun felt that this would be worry-free, and Qin Kexin would no longer be as easy to misunderstand himself as before.

Xiao Shujun was thinking about Qin Kexin's feelings everywhere.

Xu Qingran saw that everything was in his expectations, and he was secretly happy, thinking that His Majesty was really so hasty about choosing a concubine, which was also part of Xu Qingran's plan.

Although Qin Kexin and you are glad that Xiao Shujun is 'not careful' about this matter, Qin Kexin doesn't want anyone to operate in the dark on the matter of the harem.

If this incident causes a chain reaction and hurts Xiao Shujun, it will not be good.

So he persuaded: "Your Majesty, why don't you wait for those concubines to get better, if you choose a concubine so hastily, I'm afraid it will be difficult to convince the public." ”

Hearing Qin Kexin say this, Xiao Shujun really had some more concerns, after all, those disturbing ministers couldn't help but take it into account......

If Xiao Shujun really chose a concubine so hastily, then the ministers who recommended those who were unsuccessful would definitely continue to let Xiao Shujun accept concubines on the grounds of unfairness.

Instead of listening to their nagging in his ear, Xiao Shujun still chose to complete the selection of concubines at one time this time, not wanting to let those ministers have a chance to take advantage of it.

"Then according to what the queen said, after a few days, those women who suffer from heat stroke will be good, and it will not be too late for me to choose a concubine."

Hearing this, Qin Kexin and Su Lianrong both breathed a sigh of relief.

But Xu Qingran saw that the situation did not go as she expected, and couldn't help but secretly scold Qin Kexin for getting in the way, but at this time, she didn't dare to say anything, she was already very suspicious, and it would be bad if she said the wrong thing again to arouse some suspicion.

"Niangniang, how are you going to investigate this matter?" Back at Soft Fragrance Garden, Yu'er asked Qin Kexin.

"Based on the intuition of this palace, this matter must be related to Concubine Qing, but there is no evidence, you first go and investigate what the grandmothers said today about Concubine Qing sending herbal tea." Qin Kexin knew that this was the only breakthrough in this matter.

"Okay, the slave will go and check." Yu'er received an order to rush to investigate.

On the other side, Xu Qingran was extremely angry, returned to Qinghui Garden, immediately retreated from the deserted appearance outside, and began to smash things indiscriminately.

"Niang Niang is angry, Niang Niang is angry." Qing'er comforted Xu Qingran while cleaning up the things Xu Qingran threw on the ground.

After a long while, Xu Qingran was tired and calmed down, "How did you handle it over there?" ”

Qing'er knew that Xu Qingran was referring to the evidence of the crime, so she said: "Don't worry, the slave has already disposed of the bowl with the problematic herbal tea, and the imperial doctor has already bought it, so the queen will not find out about us." ”

After listening to what Qing'er said, Xu Qingran breathed a sigh of relief, now it is impossible to stop His Majesty from choosing a good-looking woman as a concubine, and it is the right thing not to let what he did be exposed.

Sure enough, because they handled the evidence cleanly, Yu'er didn't find anything.

"It's Yu'er's incompetence." Yu'er, who didn't find any evidence, was a little remorseful.

"Hugh wants to say this, it must be that they have been prepared for a long time before you can't find out, and this palace will think of other ways to do this." Qin Kexin kindly comforted Yu'er, knowing that it must be a little difficult to find out about this matter.

Yu'er was relieved a lot after Qin Kexin's comfort.

"By the way, what happened to the women who suffered from heat stroke?" Qin Kexin still thought that she had to let Xiao Shujun choose a concubine as soon as possible, so as not to change later.

"This slave has gone to see it deliberately, although those women are fine, but they all look listless, I'm afraid it will take two or three days to get better."

Qin Kexin frowned when he heard this, thinking to himself that if it was just an ordinary heat stroke, how could it not heal for so long? Qin Kexin further confirmed that those women were definitely not suffering from heat stroke.

In any case, this matter must be investigated.

Xiao Shujun returned to Soft Xiangyuan in the evening, and Qin Kexin proposed to Xiao Shujun that the selection of concubines would be carried out three days later.

"It's all up to the Queen." In the affairs of the harem, Xiao Shujun didn't have the energy to intervene, so he could only hand it over to Qin Kexin.

Hearing this, Qin Kexin smirked: "Although the concubine is happy that Your Majesty is not interested in the matter of accepting a concubine, Your Majesty can't be so distracted!" made the concubines feel that His Majesty was pretending. ”

"Nonsense, how can I be pretending? Besides the queen, which woman have I ever had a crush on? Xiao Shujun really caught the opportunity to talk about love, which made Qin Kexin's heart warm.

Seeing that Qin Kexin was happy, Xiao Shujun asked the doubts in his heart: "Isn't the queen unhappy when I choose those ugly women, why do you want to stop me?" ”

Qin Kexin was stunned for a moment when she heard this, she didn't expect Xiao Shujun to ask so directly, but Qin Kexin still replied calmly: "First, the concubines are really worried that the ministers will not be satisfied, and second, the concubines don't want someone in the harem to do anything in the dark."

Third, is the concubine so unconfident in herself? Do you have to choose some ugly women to feel at ease? Even if His Majesty chooses all the beauties of the country, the minister is confident that His Majesty will not change his mind! ”

Xiao Shujun likes Qin Kexin's appearance as a confident woman who takes care of the overall situation, the corners of her mouth curl into a good-looking arc, and she dotes: "What the queen said is that in my heart, no matter how beautiful or ugly other women are, they can't compare to my queen!" ”
