In March, when the 'spring' was cold in Beijing, the willow trees 'pumped' their buds, and the 'women' from all over the country had arrived in the capital.

In fact, this matter has been decided a year ago, so the state capitals have already made preparations, just waiting for the 'flower' bird envoy to nod in person, even if the posture is not very good, it has been said hello in advance, it is the matter of the 'flower' bird envoy to be able to go to Beijing, but whether it can be hired or not is the matter of the emperor and others.

There are four 'female' sons in each of the fifteen provinces, a total of sixty, but after the emperor's screening, it is good to leave six, and the rest of the 'female' sons will look at their origins and actions, or be 'female' officials, or 'female' palaces, and if they can't do it, they will be sent back to their hometowns, but this kind of 'female' usually has no good people who want to ask to marry.

In addition to the emperor and queen who participated in the selection, there were Zheng Guifei and Concubine Zheng of the Xiangli harem, but I heard that this time because the emperor was busy with the previous court, he completely 'handed over' the matter to the queen, after a round of selection, only sixteen people were left in sixty people, these sixteen people first lived in the Changqing Hall of the Xingqing Palace in the south, and the rest of the unsuccessful people were sent to the Shanggong Bureau to pick out the available people.

The sixteen people need to be selected after five days, in order to select the real concubines of the Son of Heaven, among which if there is a person who the concubine likes, it will be called over for questioning, if who is questioned the most, then she may be selected as the greatest 'sex', during this period, there is no shortage of people who are directly accepted as concubines by the emperor, but these sixteen 'women' can not make any mistakes during their residence, otherwise they will not only be disqualified, but will also be convicted and out of the palace.

I didn't participate in the selection that day, so I don't know what the qualifications of these 'women' were, but Concubine Ya came to my residence that day and brought a lot of gifts, saying that she was here to "bear the guilt".

"I was grounded a few years ago, and although I was released after the year, the emperor and the queen didn't allow me to run around, and I was ashamed to see you, so I waited until today. Concubine Ya said curtly.

I smiled and asked, "Why did Sister Yafei say this, weren't we very good in the past!"

The look on her face became even more sarcastic, and she secretly looked at my look, and saw that there was no anger between my eyebrows, so she said: "You don't hate me, that's fine, I thought ...... If you were born prematurely, you must hate me to death!"

I was stunned, I didn't expect her to say it so directly, but thinking about it, her personality is like this, she won't hide it.

I shook my head and said, "I know it's not you!"

"You know. Her eyes widened.

"Hmm. I lowered my eyelids and said lightly, "You are a 'girl' from the grassland, how can you know what a snow feast is!"

Concubine Ya 'excitedly' held my hand and nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, I don't know what a snow banquet is, the grassland only has two seasons of 'spring' and winter, and after 'spring' it is winter, I look at the heavy snow every day, and I am annoyed to death, but I heard that you are different, you will eat hot pot together and enjoy the snow together, the queen was like this the year before last, so I listened to Luyun's advice, who knows......" Speaking of Luyun, a 'color' of resentment appeared on her face.

I asked, "Which green cloud?"

She said: "Don't mention her, anyway, she knows that she deserves to die, and she hanged herself before I could send her!"

Green Cloud's death is still a question in my mind, whether she committed suicide because she learned of her family's tragic death, or was she coerced into murder.

"Sister Yafei, although I know it's not you, but I also want to know who is trying to harm me, can you tell me what's going on with Green Cloud!"

Seeing the sincerity of my question, Concubine Ya thought about it and said: "She wasn't in front of me before, but then she had a few small ideas, and I thought they were all 'very' good, so I let her serve 'well' in close quarters, and it was also she who said 'get' something to enjoy the snow banquet, and it turned out to be this thing, and then I didn't think anything about it, and I thought it was a coincidence or accident, but the red sleeves reminded me, and I just remembered!"

"Red sleeves. I saw the 'girl' of the Miansheng Palace standing behind Concubine Ya bowed her head slightly, and her heart moved slightly, so she asked, "This is the girl with red sleeves!"

"Well, that's her. Concubine Ya didn't care, "I want to ask Lu Yun well, who knows if she killed herself because of the rumors!"

What Concubine Ya said is not much different from what I investigated, but this red sleeve...... The timing of the appearance is the same as that of the green cloud, so coincidental.

Smiling, I said: "It seems that the old saying is really answered, no coincidence is not a book, the red-sleeved girl reminded my sister of you, and the green cloud committed suicide!"

Concubine Ya nodded, suddenly paused, looked back at the red sleeves, the red sleeves shrank for a moment, Concubine Ya's eyes narrowed, and the cold light disappeared in an instant.

After all, she is a 'girl' child who grew up in the Turkic royal court, and she really has no scheming.

I'll just point to it, and it's up to Concubine Ya to deal with it.

"You haven't seen 'jade' for so long, I'll let the 'milk' mother report it to you to take a look. I smiled and asked Ann to bring the baby.

"Yes, yes. Concubine Ya was very interested, and as soon as the child was hugged, she was going to take it, An Shi looked at me, and Concubine Ya said: "Don't worry, I will hold the child, my younger brothers and sisters are all raised by me." Seeing that I bowed slightly, An Shi let go.

Concubine Ya carefully hugged 'Jade'er', but 'Jade'er didn't recognize her life, staring curiously at this 'girl' who looked different from the people he had seen.

An innocent smile overflowed on Concubine Ya's face, and I looked at the slight movement in my heart, and asked in a low voice: "How is the emperor's favor for my sister after the year!"

Concubine Ya thought for a while and said, "It's the same as before, I didn't snub me because I was grounded, so I think the emperor also believes that the person who harmed you is not me!"

Since she is still favored, why ...... My eyes couldn't help but fall on her lower abdomen, and I swallowed the words when they came to my mouth, maybe she was born with difficulty in getting pregnant.

Concubine Ya happily accompanied the 'jade' to play for an afternoon, I simply left her for dinner, just 'flower' calyx Xianghui Lou there was a message, the first choice to stay sixteen, arranged to live in the Changqing Palace, and waited for five days after the emperor was selected.

I casually asked, "Is there anything that stands out?"

The little eunuch sent by Concubine He smiled: "There are no ones who can compare to a few mothers, but there are a few in that small family, which are different!"

I rewarded him with a smile, and said, "Your mother is busy today, I'll go see her tomorrow!"

The little eunuch thanked him, and Concubine Ya said, "I'll go and see it tomorrow, if the person who looks at the concubine is above the top, it must be very beautiful!"

I smiled and didn't speak, whoever enters the palace, whether he looks beautiful or not, has nothing to do with me, I just want my 'jade' to grow up safely, don't do anything in front of me, if you don't have long eyes, you are really killing yourself.

At noon the next day, I had dinner and found Concubine Ya to see Concubine He, the red sleeves behind her were gone, and there was a different person, Concubine Ya saw my question, so she said: "Oh, that red sleeve, 'hairy' hands and 'hairy' feet, I replaced them." I nodded secretly and didn't ask any more.
