Volume 12 Chapter 3 Show girls are difficult to choose
The draft of this ancient palace can be described as extremely complicated, first of all, the female dependents of the local officials' families must conduct a primary selection of school-age women from all over the country, and after the primary selection, they must be sent to the capital, and the eunuchs in the palace will first pass those crooked melons and cracked dates, and the indiscriminate number of them will be eliminated, and then the female officials in the palace will carry out strict screening, and the appearance will be dignified, and there will be no hidden diseases to stay.
After these three passes, they are still only candidate draft girls, and then, Jinyiwei or Dongchang will be instructed to carefully check the life experience and conduct of these candidate draft girls.
After the verification of this level, they can really get in touch with the members of the royal family, but there is still one last hurdle to pass, usually at this time the queen mother or the concubines of the first emperor will come out to conduct the final screening for them, after this pass, they can be regarded as official show girls, you can live in the palace and wait for the emperor to personally select.
Of course, at this time, they are already considered to be people in the palace, and as the so-called 'once they enter the Houmen Gate, it is as deep as the sea', it is impossible for them to get out of the palace.
After entering the palace, the female officials in the palace will compile the information of all the show girls into excerpts like a fold, and each fold will contain the information of ten show girls, so as to facilitate the emperor's selection.
At this time, Zhu Cijiong looked at the excerpts in front of him in a daze, three hundred excerpts, almost equivalent to a day's excerpts, and the content in them is much more than the content in the general excerpts, and the general excerpts write one thing, and these excerpts, each of which records the basic information of ten show girls, three thousand, look big!
Zhu Cijiong simply didn't bother to look at it, and directly ordered Cao Huachun Xuanxiu to come to the audience.
At this time, there were already two or three hundred show girls standing neatly on the square outside the Qianqing Palace, and there were many female officials in the palace who were holding the roster to check by name, this roster was copied according to the excerpt presented to the emperor, and there were ten people on each page, corresponding to a fold, if it was mistaken, it would be troublesome.
Zhu Cijiong unfolded the first excerpt a little nervously, but a pair of eyes kept looking at the door of the side hall, he didn't read the content of the excerpt at all, but he had watched some TV series, and the show girls in it were basically dinosaur-level extras, which could really scare people to death!
Finally, the first batch of ten show girls walked in, lined up in the hall, and then went up one by one to salute, the movements were meticulous, obviously trained.
Zhu Cijiong was relieved when he saw these ten show girls, there were no crooked melons and cracked dates, they were all very good-looking, and there were even one or two who were very beautiful, he couldn't help but complain in his heart about the director in his previous life, why save that little money, doesn't this mislead the traversal!
Usually at this time, if the emperor doesn't ask, then these show girls will come up one by one to see, and then it will be over, the first batch of show girls will be seen, Zhu Cijiong didn't ask a word, even if this round is over, when they walked out of the side hall, Cao Huachun immediately asked softly: "Your Majesty, do you remember clearly?" Do you want to announce the next batch to come in? “
Zhu Cijiong sleepwalked to his previous life again at this time, and couldn't help but be stunned when he heard the words, did he remember anything clearly? He asked curiously, "What do you remember?" “
Cao Huachun sweated slightly: "Your Majesty, after reading it, you want to check the concubines, if you don't remember their looks and figures, I'm afraid it will be difficult to check them at that time, right?" “
Zhu Cijiong sweated even more when he heard this, three thousand people, how could he remember!
No, you have to think of a way, this is to choose a wife for yourself, you can't mess with the mandarin duck spectrum.
After thinking about it for a while, he finally came up with a very good idea, that is, to rate them, to give each one a score according to their feelings, and then to select the concubine according to the score.
So he picked up the brush and recalled:
The first one is beautiful and in good shape, 85 points;
The second one is average, and the length is quite decent, 60 points;
the third is barely a beauty, 70 points;
The fourth is a beautiful woman, with a good figure, 80 points;
The fifth one is also very beautiful, although not as beautiful as the first one, but it is a bit like the class flower he had a crush on in high school, with a score of 90;
......
Cao Huachun originally thought that the emperor already had someone he liked, and now he was going to check it, but the emperor picked up a brush and drew some strange symbols behind everyone's name, what does this mean?
He hadn't studied Western studies, so he naturally didn't know that they were Arabic numerals, so he was confused and confused.
Zhu Cijiong felt inexplicably excited at first, but after watching a few batches, the excitement slowly disappeared, and after watching dozens of batches, he was a little numb, and after watching hundreds of batches, he even felt a little scared!
In his previous life, he had seen a lot of crossings, many of which were harem texts, that is to say, the crossing was purely in order to please his wife more, how much he could ask for, not all the emperors wanted to ask for three thousand in the harem, and now he found that it was so fake, really fake, three thousand in the harem, and he really thought he was a superman!
The emperor is also a normal person, not a superman, and some things do too much to lose their lifespan, so the average emperor has a shorter life than ordinary people.
It stands to reason that the emperor lives far better than the common people, eats far better than the common people, and has a large number of imperial doctors to take care of him all the time, and the medical conditions are far better than the common people, and the life expectancy should be much higher than that of the common people, how can it be shorter than the common people?
Don't believe it, someone once counted the average age of all emperors in all dynasties, and there are a total of 209 emperors in history, and their average age is frighteningly low, not even forty years old!
If you don't count the more than ten famous long-lived emperors in history, then this average age is even lower, not even thirty years old!
Of course, some of these emperors died unnaturally, that is, they were murdered, but it is not easy to murder an emperor, so there are not many emperors who are really murdered to death, at most half of them, and it is impossible to pull the average age so low.
So in the final analysis, it is the harem that is to blame, the so-called 'wine is a poison that pierces the intestines, and the color is a bone scraping knife.' ', 'A knife on the head of the color word', it is precisely because there are too many beauties in the harem that their bodies are hollowed out, so they are prone to die young!
Zhu Cijiong didn't want to die young, so the more he looked at it, the more scared he became, and when he saw the back, he even wanted to disobey the will of the two queen mothers and only marry five wives!
Of course, this is impossible, he can only think about it.
It is difficult to draft women, and it is even more difficult to select more than 100 of your favorite from the three thousand beauties, you must know that it is 3,000 people, even if it is one a minute, it is 3,000 minutes, a full fifty hours, even if Zhu Cijiong has four hours a day, it will only be eight hours a day, and it will have to be watched for a week, and it is the kind that does not take a break on Saturdays and Sundays.
Zhu Cijiong spent a long seven days in inexplicable fear, and in the end, he ranked the seats in the harem according to the score, and the one hundred and fifteen people with the highest scores were fortunate to become his harem or concubines, while the others could only be palace maids.
