Chapter 707: Zhengde's Choice of Concubine (Middle)
In terms of appearance alone, the Wang family is indeed the color of the city, and as soon as he appeared, he attracted the attention of countless people, and even Ma Chun, the eunuch of the palm print of the Jingshifang, had his eyes shining, and his eyes were staring at the Wang family without moving.
The eyes of the other women in the square were different, and Qin Kan could easily understand their eyes, which were jealous glances that wanted to draw a Go board on Wang's face with a knife.
The elimination rate of the concubine selection is very high, by no means inferior to the audition of some shows in later generations, among the thousands of women to be selected, only fifty people can enter the second round of selection according to the system, the sparrow flies on the branch as a phoenix, its difficulty is similar to that of a carp jumping over the dragon gate, in such a cruel competitive environment, suddenly there is such a coquettish scourge of the Wang family, how can many women with phoenix dreams not get rid of her?
Wang stood in the square in front of Cheng'an Gate, facing thousands of jealous or amazed eyes, pursed her lips and smiled, obviously she was very confident in her posture, her slender hand was lightly raised, and she unintentionally brushed her hair sideburns that were blown away by the wind, and a trace of imperceptible pride flashed between her eyebrows.
Although he didn't want to admit it, Qin Kan had to say that in terms of appearance, the Wang family could be called "standing out from the crowd" at this time.
The chickens are very unpleasant, in fact, Qin Kan is not very happy, there is such a thing as "burning the qin and cooking the crane" in ancient times, thinking about it carefully, the crane should be too high-profile, so people have to kill it and pluck it and cook it quickly.
Jiang Bin was very pleasant, he stood behind Mao Cheng and Qin Kan with a respectful expression, but he quietly raised his eyes, his eyes met with Wang's in mid-air, and the two pursed their lips at the same time, knowing each other. Then they quickly looked away, looking like they didn't know each other.
Qin Kan turned his head to look at Mao Cheng, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, Mao Cheng also lost his mind for a moment when he saw the Wang family for the first time, and then his eyes were full of admiration, and he nodded with a smile while holding his long beard.
"It is indeed the best color in the world, and it is always appropriate to wear light makeup, which is good, and it can be a good ......match for His Majesty," Mao Cheng praised with a smile.
Qin Kan smiled and nodded in agreement, and looked sideways at Jiang Bin, who looked more and more overjoyed. Seeing Qin Kan looking at him with a smile. Jiang Bin hurriedly made a gesture at Qin Kan, this salute was quite meaningful.
Nodding silently, Qin Kan turned around, the corners of his mouth twitching imperceptibly.
Women are afraid of marrying the wrong man. Men are afraid of getting into the wrong business. This surnamed Jiang is obviously in the wrong business. What kind of official, look at this pimp is so high-end and atmospheric, and he was born to be the material for a big teapot. What is it that people are always unable to understand themselves correctly?
β¦β¦β¦β¦
At three o'clock in the afternoon, the bell and drum tower rang the bell, the square stopped the noise, thousands of beauties lined up to stand on the square, facing the different eyes of the surrounding officials, eunuchs and sergeants, and walked into the palace gate under the guidance of more than ten small eunuchs.
Qin Kan sighed, showed a gentle smile, and asked Mao Cheng, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, to go first, Mao Cheng hurriedly humbled in, and the two entered side by side after being polite, and Ma Chun, the eunuch of the palm print of the Jingshi room, followed with a smile, as for the guerrilla general Jiang Bin that Zhu Houzhao brought back from Xuanfu, he could only walk behind with his eyebrows lowered.
The place of choosing a concubine is set on the noon gate square, after entering from the Cheng'an gate, it takes half an hour to walk, and I don't know which strange place to set the place, the noon gate square is the place where the courtiers are beaten by the court cane, from the year of Hongwu to the year of Zhengde, I don't know how many ministers who offended Long Yan were killed by the rod in this square, Liu Jin was still very chaotic, if there are psychic people to take a look, there must be many loyal ministers with bare buttocks floating around in the square, and the resentment is infinite, such a place to choose a concubine is really not particular.
Under the command of the little eunuch, thousands of women to be selected lined up in a neat phalanx on the square, four Taishi chairs were placed on the east side of the square, Ma Chun courteously invited Mao Cheng and Qin Kan to sit down, and soon the little eunuch served tea and exquisite pastries.
The audition work is very tedious, and it seems that all kinds of warblers, swallows, swallows, birds and flowers are fragrant, but it is actually very hard. The women were in a group of five, waiting for the young eunuch to call their names, and then the five of them stood in a row in front of the four concubines and deputy envoys, while Qin Kan and Mao Cheng and the other four people first looked at their origins and backgrounds, and then took a cursory look at the appearance and figure of the five people, and at the same time secretly paid attention to the demeanor and temperament of the five people when they walked.
At this moment, Qin Kan found out how mistaken the romance letters of later generations were, the kind of silly eldest sister with a big grin or a confused and cute personality will never be able to pass the first round of auditions, the emperor chooses the concubine first and pays attention to virtue, demeanor and dignified, followed by appearance, the silly eldest sister and the confused little cutie will be trampled under the feet of thousands of women who take the cold route in the first round, and they will obediently go home without even seeing the emperor's face, and it is impossible to have any intersection with the emperor in this life.
Every five people for a group, if there is a demeanor or temperament outstanding, the four concubines exchange glances, and then the little eunuch will introduce it into the palace of the noon gate, by the older female officer for its physical examination, this physical examination process is very embarrassing and unspeakable, enter a palace, standing and stripped naked, the female official stepped forward to check the skin, hair, jaw, mouth, nose, back, chest, legs, feet, etc., but also listen to its voice, and then dignified and beautiful woman, if you are born with a duck male voice is not good, in short, than the mule and horse market to pick livestock is stricter.
Of course, an innocent virgin body is the first necessary condition, if it is found that there is a woman to be selected who is not perfect, not only will she be sentenced to prison, but her parents and family will be affected, and three generations will not be able to turn over.
At the beginning, Qin Kan was still in the spirit to select seriously, but after selecting one hundred and ten people, Qin Kan was a little excited, his eyes were half-squinted and leaned on the back of the chair, and he sipped tea without a mouthful of his legs, and he didn't know whether he was asleep or not.
After all, she is someone else's wife, and she can't climb into her bed at night, and Qin Kan is always not very interested in things that are not good for her.
After choosing more than an hour like this, Qin Kan was dozing off in a daze and suddenly heard the little eunuch shouting in a sharp voice: "The Wang clan of Shunde Mansion stepped forwardββ"
Qin Kan finally opened his eyes and quietly watched as Wang's Yingying walked out of the team, and his small waist swayed like a soft breeze and walked to the front.
She once again gained countless amazing glances, Mao Cheng stroked her long beard and nodded with a smile, Ma Chun squinted her eyes and grinned widely, Jiang Bin looked at the expressions of several concubine envoys, her face showed a hint of reserved joy, and the light that flashed repeatedly in her eyes was not a glamorous woman, but a naked desire for power.
Qin Kan's face was a little unsightly, he looked up at the sky, and there was a bit of killing intent in his eyes.
If Wang is allowed to enter the second round smoothly, it is inevitable that she will meet Zhu Houzhao, and I don't know what the consequences will be in the future.
The things that Qian Ning was ordered to do have not moved until now, Qin Kan finally had a trace of murder against Qian Ning, if the Wang family was selected as a concubine, he would kill Qian Ning to vent his anger!
"The appearance and figure of the Wang family of Shunde Mansion are all the best choices, what do you think of the adults?" Ma Chun asked with a smile.
Mao Cheng nodded, a trace of hesitation flashed on his face: "This woman has nothing to say about her appearance, it can be described as one in a hundred, but looking at her demeanor, she is a little less dignified, this ......"
Ma Chun said with a smile: "A rare beauty, Your Majesty will be happy to see it, it is said that this time the concubine is only for the heirs of the heavenly family, if Your Majesty is happy, he will not hesitate to grace nectar, and the heavenly family will be happy to add a dragon son in the coming day, which is also the blessing of my Daming Society, as for whether it is dignified or not, after being elected to the palace, there are female officials who teach them manners and rules, and the half-moon period is enough to be reborn. β
Jiang Bin hurriedly said: "The lower official position is humble and light, but forgive the lower official for being presumptuous, the lower official thinks that what Ma Gonggong said is very true." β
After the two finished speaking, Mao Cheng had nothing to say, and after a trace of hesitation flashed on his face, he finally nodded heavily.
Today's courtiers are too anxious, starting from Emperor Xianzong, the heirs of the heavenly family have not been prosperous, this is also a piece of heart disease hanging in the hearts of the ministers, to the Zhengde Dynasty, when today's son is nearly thirty years old, but still nothing, if there is any unspeakable change in the future, who should the throne be entrusted to?
Ma Chun obviously liked this Wang family very much, and he didn't know if he had received Jiang Bin's benefits, seeing Mao Cheng nodded, Ma Chun asked Qin Kan with a smile: "I don't know what Grandpa Qin wants?" β
Qin Kan was anxious, but at this moment, three of the four concubine envoys agreed, and it was not appropriate to openly turn his face with Jiang Bin at this time, so he had no choice but to smile and say: "All the adults have agreed, I naturally have nothing to say, so I will choose the Wang family." β
Jiang Bin's face was even more happy when he heard this, and the look of anger in Qin Kan's eyes flashed, and he secretly pondered a bad idea in his heart, since Qian Ning was unreliable, he simply sent someone to steal the Wang family out of the palace tonight, and let Tang Bohu send her back after doing it, anyway, Tang Dacai is used to eating prostitutes for nothing, for the sake of the long-term stability and prosperity of Daming Society, it is not impossible for Grandpa Qin to make a cameo appearance as a pimp, and even Tang Dacai will give him a red envelope after prostitution......
After thinking about it, I always feel that it is too much of a loss, why do I have to post money and send red envelopes when I let others do things? That's a bit cheap...... Grandpa Qin raised his white right hand again, carefully looked at his slender and beautiful fingers, and quickly changed a new way of thinking in his mind.
In fact, some things don't have to be so troublesome, things that can be done with one finger, why bother to fake others?
When the stomach was gurgling with bad water, the Wang family had already blessed the four of them, and then was invited into the inner palace of the noon gate by the courteous little eunuch with a bowed waist.
At this time, a figure suddenly ran to the south of the noon gate square, but it was a small eunuch in a purple brocade robe, the little eunuch hurriedly walked to the front of the four concubines, saluted the four people, and then lowered his hand and said: "The four adults forgive their sins, and the news of the East Factory came from outside the gate of the Shicai Palace, and the East Factory recently found the whereabouts of the remnants of the White Lotus Sect in Shunde Mansion, and the East Factory traced it several times, and finally found that the remnants of the White Lotus Sect had a close relationship with Wang Jianzhi, the head of the East Factory, and the head of the East Factory was suddenly interrogated overnight, and Wang Jianzhi confessed his confession, I heard that the queen has entered Beijing to elect a concubine, in order to prevent the royal accident under His Majesty, Dongchang specially issued an urgent notice to the four adults, and asked the four adults to refer to it. β
