"What does it matter to me to choose a concubine banquet, are there not enough people who are running for the election and want me to make up the number?"

The day before the concubine selection banquet, Lin Haode asked people to come to Lin Mumu and said that she was ready to enter the palace with him tomorrow to attend the banquet.

"Miss, the emperor has made it clear that all the young ladies who have never been married in the official mansion of the seventh rank or above in Beijing will run for election." Qiaoqiao explained by combing Lin Mumu's hair.

"Divorced, isn't it, and divorced? If I go, I'm afraid others won't think I want to marry someone crazy and want to go! ”

Lin Mumu didn't want to join in the excitement of the concubine banquet.

"Miss, you should go and have fun, you've been busy in the Women's Medical Department recently, don't you have a good rest?"

Entering the palace is more tired to deal with those bewitching sluts, okay!

Lin Mumu was reluctant to do a thousand things, but in the end he went, after all, this was an opportunity to meet Zhao Xuanling, although Emperor Showa said that he was choosing a concubine for the prince, who knows if he would not think of pointing out a marriage to Zhao Xuanling, after all, Zhao Xuanling is not younger than those princes, and he is still single.

Lin Mumu didn't think about doing something at the concubine selection banquet to let Emperor Showa marry her and Zhao Xuanling, but just thinking about it, Zhao Xuanling is definitely not a person who can accept others calculating him.

On the day of the concubine selection banquet, Lin Mumu got up early in the morning, just because she ate too little last night and she was hungry before dawn!

Although there are a lot of palace delicacies in the concubine selection banquet, who goes to such a banquet to eat, in order not to make himself hungry, before being picked up by Qiaoqiao and Shuangshuang, Lin Mumu made a big bowl, and then he felt that he was alive again.

"The eldest lady said that today is wearing this aqua blue corset butterfly dress or this emerald skirt? The slave maid felt that the eldest lady was born exquisitely, and if she wore this long skirt, she could look taller. Qiaoqiao held two skirts to Lin Mumu and asked.

"Qiaoqiao, can I understand that you are disgusted that I am short?"

"Uh...... Miss, don't talk nonsense, where will the slave dislike the eldest lady. ”

"Okay, I won't tease you, just dress as you say."

"Eh, the slave will change it for the eldest lady."

After dressing up, Lin Mumu took both of them to the gate of the house, and after a while, Lin Haode and Lin Yuxi came.

Emperor Showa said that the unmarried women in the official palace above the seventh rank had to run for election, but there was also a premise for this, and the concubine was not qualified.

Lin Haode's eyes swept from Lin Mumu lightly, and then turned around and got into the carriage.

Lin Yuxi glared at Lin Mumu secretly and got into the car.

Because the carriage of the Lin Mansion is limited, Lin Mumu can only have a carriage with Lin Yuxi.

"I've never seen such a shameless person, they are all broken shoes, and they still have the face to enter the palace to see the concubine selection banquet!"

As soon as Lin Mumu got into the car, Lin Yuxi glared at her and said sarcastically.

Lin Mumu raised her eyebrows, this kind of thing is innocuous to her, but even if she is unhappy, no one can speak quickly in front of her.

"Some people, if they lose the election like me, does that mean that she is also like me?"

"You, who's like you!"

Lin Mumu glanced at her coldly. "What are you excited about, am I talking to you?"

"You! Lin Mumu, you wait for me! You killed my mother and waited for me to become the princess, I will never let you go! ”

Lin Mumu slapped her hand away, pointed at her and smiled coldly.

"This thing does

You can't talk nonsense, I'll kill your mother? Lin Yuxi, if you don't have evidence, you are framing and framing the eldest sister, this reputation is not good, do you say that the emperor will still want someone like you to be a daughter-in-law? ”

Lin Yuxi's maid was afraid that she would say something ugly again, so she hurriedly pulled her, the most important thing today is to choose a concubine banquet, even if she is not selected, if she behaves well, she will be seen by the wives of other families, maybe someone will come to the door to ask for marriage, so you must not go out on any business before that.

Obviously, Lin Yuxi also knows this, now that the Zhang family is dead, Lin Ziyu doesn't care about anything, her only chance to turn over is today, and she must not miss today's opportunity. "You! You, you wait for me! ”

Lin Yuxi snorted and didn't speak again after finishing speaking, Lin Mumu didn't bother to pay attention to her, and leaned on the side of the car window boredly and looked at the scenery flashing outside the window.

Today's concubine selection banquet was held in the Tianxing Palace next to the palace, so many things had happened before, and Emperor Showa had already rejected too many people entering the palace, so the concubine selection banquet was arranged elsewhere.

The Tianxing Palace is located in the north of the palace where Xichu is located, and it is also used to receive foreign guests.

Although the Heavenly Star Palace is not as big as the Imperial Palace, it is no problem to accommodate tens of thousands of people.

Even in the Tianxing Palace, Emperor Showa was also very strict in terms of security.

All the candidates had to wait until two people lined up after getting out of the carriage and passed the inspection before they could enter, even the prince himself.

If someone finds any dangerous items on someone, that person and the other party's entire family will be disqualified from participating in the concubine selection banquet, and will be imprisoned for the crime of attempting to assassinate.

Therefore, the officials who came over today, even the ladies and ladies did not dare to wear too sharp ornaments, for fear of being considered dangerous goods.

After a search, Lin Mumu and the others finally entered the Heavenly Star Palace.

Walking on the main hall leading to the banquet, there are beautiful ladies dressed up all the way.

After entering the palace, Lin Mumu found his place and sat down.

As soon as she sat down, she felt that there were always some unkind eyes looking at her.

"That's not Lin Mumu, who was divorced by the third prince, how can she still have the face to participate in the concubine selection banquet!"

"It's just that she is her, her skin is really thick enough, and she is not afraid of being laughed at, is it possible that she still fantasizes that the emperor will choose her to be the princess?"

"It's so ugly!"

Lin Mumu is not the third princess for a long time, and everyone naturally has no fear when they speak, and I don't know how many noble ladies from the family who came today are naturally not afraid of offending Lin Haode, a Shangshu is nothing at all in the eyes of many nobles.

Lin Mumu sat by herself, there was no need to attract attention for this bit of verbal dispute on such an occasion, she didn't want to attract attention at today's banquet.

However, after sitting for a long time, she also felt bored, and after looking around, she found that there was no Lan Qinzhu's figure, so she got up and walked outside the hall.

She saw Mrs. Lan just now, but Lan Qinzhu didn't look at it, it seemed that the girl had escaped, but except for Lan Qinzhu, Miss Lan Er, who went to visit her that day, did not appear.

Although she didn't know much about this Miss Lan Er, she could see from a few brief sentences that day that she hoped to be able to attend the banquet and be chosen, as for why she didn't show up today, she didn't know what the reason was.

There is a lotus pond outside the banquet hall, and it is the season when the lotus flowers are in full bloom, and there is a faint fragrance of lotus flowers in the air.

Lin Mumu has no special hobby for flowers, but only for lotuses

A little preference, especially when the lotus flower transforms into a lotus pod, every year she will personally pick some and take it home to peel and eat, the sweet lotus seed mouth, always can make her happy.

Lin Mumu came to the edge of the lotus pond, pulled many lotus flowers and sniffed them on the tip of her nose, the fresh and elegant aroma was really refreshing.

"My sister is really interested!"

What a disappointment.

Lin Mumu stood up straight, playing with the delicate stamens of the lotus flower.

"Concubine Lin is very interested, coming here with the Third Highness today This is an important moment to witness the emperor giving the third highness a concubine?"

Lin Ziyu's face sank, and he secretly clenched the embroidered handkerchief in his hand.

Lin Mumu's words can't be said to be heartbreaking, how much she wants to sit in the position of the main concubine, how much she hates Lin Mumu at this moment, if it wasn't for Lin Mumu, she would have been the third princess long ago!

Just as Lin Mumu turned around to leave, a trace of cruel hatred flashed in Lin Ziyu's eyes, and she suddenly stepped forward and knelt at Lin Mumu's feet and said in a choked voice: "Sister, please save me, please save the child in my belly......"

Lin Mumu's eyebrows skipped a beat, and she raised her feet to break free from Lin Ziyu's shackles. "Lin Ziyu, what kind of tragic drama are you playing here, let go of me!"

Lin Ziyu tightly pulled the corner of Lin Mumu's skirt, and when Lin Mumu pulled hard, Lin Ziyu suddenly exclaimed, and fell towards the lotus pond with a crooked body.

"Concubine Side, be careful!" The palace maid behind Lin Ziyu exclaimed in surprise, and the voice was so sharp that it almost pierced the eardrum, which attracted the attention of many people.

Lin Mumu looked at Lin Ziyu who fell down the lotus pond and cursed in a low voice. "Damn it!"

She stretched out her hand to grab it, but Lin Ziyu didn't let her touch herself, and her whole body smashed into the lotus pond.

"Ahh Come on, come on, come on, the side concubine fell into the water. ”

At this time, the voice of the palace maid attracted the attention of Emperor Showa and others who had just walked in.

Because of the previous events, Emperor Showa was very sensitive to all kinds of frightened sounds, and he lowered his face and said to the people around him: "Go and see what happened." ”

"Yes." Li Anli didn't dare to delay at all, and immediately sent someone to check.

The lotus pond was pooped, and the palace people quickly went into the water to fish Lin Ziyu up, but even so, Lin Ziyu was soaked and fainted.

"Blood, there's blood, there's a lot of blood, quick, quickly help Concubine Lin down and invite the female medical officer over!" The palace maid was stunned when she looked at the blood flowing from under Lin Ziyu's body.

After Li Anli asked about the situation, he immediately went to report the situation to Emperor Showa.

"Your Majesty, the three princes and concubines in front of you have fallen into the water."

Zhao Hanjun, who was following Emperor Showa, frowned when he heard this, Lin Ziyu still had his flesh and blood in his stomach. "Father, son-in-law go and take a look."

Emperor Showa nodded. "Go see what's going on."

"Yes."

Zhao Hanjun strode towards the lotus pond.

"How did you fall into the water? Are all the people around you dead? "Emperor Showa learned from Concubine Xueyu that Lin Ziyu was already pregnant, and if something happened to Lin Ziyu, it would be the emperor's heir.

"Back to the emperor, it seems that Lord Lin pushed Concubine Lin into the pond." Li Anli replied, it was not her arranging Lin Mumu in front of Emperor Showa, and the palace maid who replied to him did say so.

"Lin Mumu?"

"Yes."

Emperor Showa's face sank. "She's so daring! If there is anything wrong with the imperial heir in Concubine Lin's belly, I am the only one who asks! ”
