Wash.. lā?≈

A white-clothed palace girl with a beautiful and plump face, eyes like Guanyin, eyes like autumn waves, mouth like a cherry blossom, nose like a hanging gall, and fine teeth stood in the gate of the Huanyi Bureau and looked out anxiously.

This white-clothed palace girl looked like she was about fifteen or sixteen years old, and the dress she was wearing was a little strange, similar to the female official in the palace but a little different, it was the lady's special equipment.

At this moment, the glamorous girl who appeared here is Zhang Yan, a lady from Henan, who is known as one of the five great queens of ancient China because of her incomparable beauty.

According to historical records, Zhang Yan was pure and demure when she was a child, smiled without showing her teeth, and when she was seven years old, she worked hard and stood hard work, sprinkling and sweeping the courtyard, washing and cooking, and doing everything.

When there is nothing to do, he is alone in a room, he learns to be a female celebrity, reads book history, and was born at the age of thirteen or fourteen, peerless, and his father Zhang Guoji took care of his younger siblings after being widowed.

Zhang Yanliu's eyebrows frowned slightly, her eyes showed an anxious look, she knew that today was the day to test the lady's literary knowledge, not only the eight ladies who were selected as candidates for the queen, but also the rest of the ladies had the opportunity to answer the questions raised by the court officials, and the correct answer would be recorded, which would be of great benefit to the future.

Since Zhang Yan can become a lady recommended by the Henan Political Envoy, she is naturally not afraid of competing with others, but now she doesn't even have the opportunity to compete with others, and she is inexplicably matched here, and she is really unwilling to be here.

After hesitating for a moment, Zhang Yan gritted her teeth and walked towards the gate, she didn't come all the way to the capital to waste time in the Huanyi Bureau, how could she fight.

"Miss Zhang!" Before Zhang Yan could walk a few steps, a voice called out to her, and she saw a middle-aged eunuch of medium stature leading two small chamberlains over.

"Mr. Zhang." Seeing this situation, Zhang Yan bowed slightly to the middle-aged eunuch and pleaded sincerely, "I beg Mr. Zhang to let the people's daughter out, the people's girl is a lady and wants to go to the palace to participate in the selection." ”

"Miss Zhang, even if the miscellaneous family lets you leave here, you can't enter the Forbidden City without a token to enter the palace." The middle-aged eunuch couldn't help but shake his head when he heard this, glanced at the several attendants guarding the gate of the courtyard, and said to Zhang Yan in a somewhat cold voice, "Besides, they are the people who came to see you, and the miscellaneous family also instructed them not to move." ”

"Besides, the person who doesn't want you to participate in the selection is the henchman of General Manager Wang, who dares to let you go?" As he spoke, the middle-aged eunuch lowered his voice and opened his mouth to comfort, "Miss Zhang, the miscellaneous family advises you to die of your heart, so as not to suffer at that time." ”

"Manager Zhang, do you just let them cover the sky with one hand?" Zhang Yan couldn't help biting her lip when she heard this, her expression looked a little angry, who would have thought that those eunuchs would dare to do such a thing in private from Emperor Apocalypse.

"They are prosperous now, even the emperor has let them, what can others do?" The middle-aged eunuch couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this, and said to Zhang Yan, "Do you know why the miscellaneous family came to this Huanyi Bureau?" ”

Zhang Yan suddenly showed a puzzled look, she was new to the school, so she didn't know what was hidden here.

"The miscellaneous family was originally the steward eunuch of the Forbidden City's Qiluan Palace, although the Qiluan Palace is a cold palace, it is always better than this lowly Huanyi Bureau."

The middle-aged eunuch looked at Zhang Yan with a serious expression, and a look of chagrin and unwillingness appeared on his face, "Because of a fire in the Luan Palace, the miscellaneous family was assigned here, and it is also thanks to the fact that Scholar Li of Zuo Chunfang risked his life to rescue the trapped Princess Le'an from the fire, and later said good things to the people of the Za family and other subordinates of the Luan Palace in front of the emperor, otherwise the miscellaneous family would have lost their heads." ”

"That Scholar Li is the top student in the new department?" Zhang Yan's eyes suddenly lit up when she heard this, because Xiangyang Mansion was next to Henan, Zhang Yan knew a lot about Li Hongyu.

"It is Li Zhuangyuan who will take the next hall test." The middle-aged eunuch frowned slightly when he heard this, then looked at Zhang Yan and said, "One thing you may not know, you have actually met Scholar Li, who was ordered by the emperor to be in charge of this selection with Chief Manager Wei, wearing a scarlet official uniform, with a golden rooster on his chest, which is very recognizable." ”

"Scarlet uniform?"

Zhang Yan couldn't help but fall into the memory, and soon remembered the young official who was with Wei Zhongxian, and couldn't help but show a surprised look on his face, "Could it be that he is a scholar of Li University, and he doesn't have a little official on his body, we thought it was a petty official sent by the Yamen to do things." ”

"Li University was born as a scholar, gentle and elegant, although he is in a high position, he is kind and kind, which is different from those commanding officials in the court."

The middle-aged eunuch couldn't help but laugh when he heard this, "It's no wonder that you will admit your mistakes, our Daming has never appeared such a young Zhengerpin master." ”

"Mr. Zhang, you said that Scholar Li can call the shots for me?" Zhang Yan groaned for a moment when she heard this, and asked solemnly at the middle-aged eunuch.

"Scholar Li is loyal to the emperor, and your affairs are related to the emperor, so he naturally will not sit idly by." The middle-aged eunuch pondered for a moment, and nodded to Zhang Yan with a serious expression, "When today's matter is over, you go to wait for Scholar Li outside the Donghua Gate and shout grievances to him, he will definitely set things right and give you justice." ”

"Hmm." Zhang Yan nodded resolutely when she heard this, she was unwilling to come to the capital for nothing, and she wanted to fight for her fate.

At this moment, a young chamberlain led several brocade guard sergeants hurriedly rushed in from outside the gate.

"Manager Zhang, is this Zhang Yan, a lady from Henan?" The young chamberlain saw the middle-aged eunuch and Zhang Yan in the courtyard, and then walked quickly to the two of them, looked at Zhang Yan's clothes, and then asked the middle-aged eunuch.

"Exactly." The middle-aged eunuch felt a little strange, and didn't know why the young chamberlain asked about Zhang Yan, and then asked, "What happened?" ”

"Scholar Li has an order to bring Lady Zhang to participate in the selection." The young chamberlain then briefly recounted the previous incident at the selection site, and then said to Zhang Yan, "Lady Zhang, let's go, Master Li and Manager Wei are still waiting for you." ”

"Manager Zhang, thank you for taking care of me during this time, there will be a period later." Zhang Yan, who was in a surprise, came back to her senses, never expecting to have an unexpected joy, so after bowing to the middle-aged eunuch, she happily followed the young chamberlain and left, ready to step onto her own historical stage.

"Boss, can Miss Zhang be a concubine?"

After Zhang Yan and his party left, a chamberlain standing behind the middle-aged eunuch couldn't help but ask curiously, the relationship between the middle-aged eunuch and Zhang Yan is good, if Zhang Yan can fly on the branch as a phoenix, maybe the middle-aged eunuch can be transferred over to serve, and then leave a place like the Huanyi Bureau that has no future.

"This woman is definitely not a thing in the pool, now she is just a dragon trapped in the shallows, and she will fly straight for nine days when she encounters a storm. Perhaps, she can become a phoenix. ”

The middle-aged eunuch looked at Zhang Yan's back with a look of expectation, he had never met such a beautiful and temperamental woman in the harem for so many years, maybe Zhang Yan could stand out and be elected as the queen by the Emperor of the Apocalypse, then his fate would be changed.

Of course, the middle-aged eunuch not only wants to have power, but more importantly, he wants to take revenge on Wang An, Wang An put the fire in the Luan Palace to clearly want to put him to death, fortunately his luck Li Hongyu rescued Zhu Huiyuan, since he can survive, he naturally wants to take revenge on Wang An.

Two days later, the Forbidden City, Yuanhui Palace.

Emperor Tianqi sat on the dragon chair, and on the left and right sides stood the civil and military officials in the court, and today he was going to select the queen of the Ming Dynasty from the selected ladies here.

In addition to Li Hongyu, the civil and military officials at the scene had never seen the ladies selected from all over the country this time, so they were very curious about the ladies who were about to appear in the Yuanhui Palace.

Soon, under the leadership of Wei Zhongxian, nine women dressed in gorgeous palace clothes were divided into three rows, three people in each row, and entered the Yuanhui Hall with their heads bowed, and these nine people were the queen candidates selected from among the ladies.

Originally, according to the rules, there should only be eight ladies, but after Zhang Yan appeared, the officials of the Ministry of Rites, eunuchs and female officials in charge of the selection unanimously decided to list her as one of the candidates.

Of course, the Emperor of the Apocalypse had already received the report of this matter, and for the sake of the thin and tall eunuch who committed suicide in fear of crime, he was not prepared to delve into the matter so as not to spoil the festive atmosphere, and at the same time he was very curious about Zhang Yan, who made everyone make an exception.

"The lady knocks on the emperor, long live the emperor, long live, long live!" When they came to the front of the hall, the nine ladies knelt down and saluted in a proper manner, shouting in unison.

"Flat." The Emperor of the Apocalypse raised his hand to the Void and said quietly.

"Your Majesty." Hearing this, the nine ladies got up one after another, and stood there with their heads bowed, their expressions cramped, and since it was their first time to meet the emperor, they were inevitably nervous.

"Look up." Emperor Apocalypse suddenly showed a look of disappointment on his forehead, so he couldn't see the faces of the nine ladies clearly, Wei Zhongxian saw this and spoke.

The nine ladies slowly raised their heads when they heard this, which made the eyes of the ministers on the scene suddenly brighten, and the nine ladies were really beauties with a beautiful appearance that captivated the country and the city, and they were worthy of the most beautiful women selected from all over the Ming Dynasty.

Soon after, everyone's eyes involuntarily focused on the body of the lady standing in the middle of the last row of the nine ladies, this woman has a slender and plump body, refreshing and beautiful, very eye-catching among the nine ladies, and has a sense of standing out from the crowd.

"What's your name, and where are you from?" Emperor Apocalypse's attention was also attracted by the lady in the middle of the third row, and his eyes lit up for a moment before looking at her and asked.

"Lady Zhang, the emperor asked you." Seeing this, Wei Zhongxian hurriedly said to the lady, it turned out that she was Zhang Yan.

"Back to the emperor, the lady is Henan Xiangfu people, named Zhang Yan, fifteen years old." Hearing this, Zhang Yan hurriedly bowed to the Emperor of the Apocalypse, smiled and replied coquettishly, in fact, she is only fourteen years old this year, fifteen years old, and she is a girl in the mood for love.

"Yan, you are smiling! Sure enough, it's a good name. Looking at Zhang Yan, who was smiling and smiling, Emperor Tianqi couldn't help but bow slightly, and then praised it with a smile.

Li Hongyu, who was standing among the auxiliary ministers, heard that a subtle smile flashed at the corner of his mouth, and he could see that the Emperor of the Apocalypse liked Zhang Yan very much, and sometimes people's first impressions were very important, especially between men and women, the fate of love at first sight was very wonderful.

The ministers at the scene secretly exchanged a look, it seems that the queen of the Ming Dynasty has been determined, and the faces of the other eight ladies have shown a look of disappointment, although it is only a brief conversation between the Emperor of the Apocalypse and Zhang Yan, but it has already decided the fate of their fate with the queen, and they naturally feel lost in their hearts.

Sure enough, things are as Li Hongyu expected, and it is also the inevitable trend of history, the Emperor of the Apocalypse fell in love with Zhang Yan at first sight, and finally appointed Zhang Yan as the queen of the Ming Dynasty, the two ladies of the Wang family and the Duan family as concubines, and the rest were given other titles, located under the Wang family and the Duan family.

According to the practice of the Ming Dynasty, Zhang Yan's father was able to become a nobleman and was named Tai Kangbo, which can be described as a father and daughter, and the glory of the ancestors, you must know that the queen is the mother of a country, and her status is extremely noble, and she is the second only to the emperor in the Ming Dynasty, which naturally makes the Zhang family have infinite glory.

With the marriage of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, the Ming Dynasty finally ushered in a queen who can truly honor the world, the Empress Dowager Zheng and the Empress Dowager Li were both crowned queens under special circumstances, far less orthodox than Zhang Yan, and can be recognized by the outside world, especially the civil official group, and then have the prestige of the queen in the civil official group.
