The queen was just about to explain the rules, and the emperor's confidant Shunzi came to report, saying that the emperor had some official business at hand, and he would come over after dealing with it, and let the queen preside over first, and the emperor would definitely come over before the next competition began.

The eldest princess also brought the lord of Leping from Cining Palace, and brought news that the queen mother wanted to take a nap first, and she would only participate in the next competition. The competition on the field will be watched by her instead of the Queen Mother.

"That's the rule before?" Rong An asked.

"It changes every year. This year's split is obviously a new trick. Chang Rufei poured herself a glass of sweet wine. Since the emperor and the queen mother are not coming, then this is a formality. The point is still in the end. ”

Rong An thought so. She saw the men's seats. There were a lot of wine on the table, and some of them had wine chips for the wine order. I didn't take the first half seriously at all.

Also, it would be too unbelievable to say that hundreds of girls competed together. It is simpler to find a choice to eliminate a large number of unqualified first, leave a few to accompany you, and then make a choice of excellence.

No wonder Chang Rufei doesn't care, a noble girl like her, even if she only looks at the face of the family, she will be sure to advance to the next round.

Rong An pinched and played fifteen places.

Chang Rufei has three, Ronghua has one, and there are already four. If it were ordinary, Liao Jing would definitely be choking enough, but since she had already decided on the six princesses, she was indispensable. Then there is Miss Cao, who is known as "the first beauty in the capital", the granddaughter of the Zhao family in the cabinet, the Miss Zhengjia of the Guozi Supervisor, and several famous ministers and nobles, so it has exceeded ten.

The quota is a little wider, and to put it mildly, even if the remaining girls are not obvious in identity and reputation, as long as they work hard, they will have a chance.

Rong An was a little envious of the male guests on the side at this time. If she were to see it, she would also want to see this excitement.

With the beautiful scenery of wine and food, watching the girls fight openly and secretly, is it not much better than any song and dance performance?

The rules are out.

The competition on the field is mainly for the girls to show themselves. And the task of judging was originally placed in the hands of the emperor and queen mother.

The Queen Mother didn't come at the moment, so the eldest princess took on the task of judging the Queen Mother.

And Shunzi said that the emperor had already explained to Prince Heng's wife Shen to help choose someone to make a judgment.

Prince Heng is the person in charge of the affairs of the imperial family designated by the first emperor, and Princess Shen is calm, meticulous, and senior, so she comes to act as an agent, so naturally no one has any doubts.

The queen announced that the competition will be divided into five parts, which are both Qiaoqiao, so even all the items in the competition are carried out around the word "Qiao". to test the most basic "skill" of the girls.

The competition begins.

First of all, it is more "clever".

As the name suggests, than the image. It is not only the appearance, but also the dress, not only the makeup, but also the bearing and conversation......

"It's a little boring, and it's a little exaggerated." Rong An couldn't help but slander.

I don't know who arranged the competition, fake, and got a big wooden plaque to stand on the top. The attendants were putting their names on the wooden plaques according to the girls' seats. If it weren't for the elaborate carving of the wooden plaque with the Ruyi pattern, Rong An would have been able to remove the door panel for them somewhere.

Looking at the blank space and five partitions behind the names of the girls, it is obvious that after various judgments, the five results are combined to determine the qualifications.

"It's like taking the imperial examination. It's still on the list! Rong An smiled.

"Isn't it good to be formal?" Chang Rufei smiled. "What a story!"

The curious crowd soon understood.

This is to ask the girls to come forward and meet one by one, and then the queen, the eldest princess and Princess Shen will each give their own judgments.

There are five types of judging results: upper, upper middle, middle, lower, and lower.

"Shangshang" is the best, and the winner's name will be pasted with five pieces of gold leaf. By extension, the "middle and upper" is the four flowers. Minus in this example.

For example, at this moment, Yu Ronghua, who was sitting in front of him, stepped forward to greet him.

Her outfit is impeccable.

"Up, up." The queen smiled and gave judgment.

Princess Shen also nodded: "Go up." ”

The waiter over there was just about to mark on the wooden sign, but was stopped by the eldest princess.

"However...... "The eldest princess obviously sang the opposite tune because of Ronghua's surname Yu, and because the queen didn't give face to deal with rumors just now." Miss Yu was born in a famous family, her demeanor and appearance are first-class, and her dress image is good, but today's ......"

The eldest princess saw that Ronghua was not in a good state today, and the delay in speaking made Ronghua nervous again.

"Why is this hair sweating?" The eldest princess made a gesture and covered her nose with a handkerchief: "No wonder the ointment used by Miss Yu is a little pantothenic!" ”

Ronghua tried to inhale and maintained a beautiful salute, but he couldn't control the redness of his eyes, and there were more beads of sweat on his sideburns.

"Miss Yu is of noble birth, so she must not be impatient, and her posture must maintain her ice muscles and jade bones. Upper middle bar! The eldest princess said quietly.

The eldest princess with a smile on the queen's face: "Since there are three judges, the majority shall prevail." This is what the emperor meant! She motioned to the chamberlain: "Two to one, Miss Yu's results are according to the meaning of the palace and Princess Shen, go up, record." ”

The eldest princess took a sip of tea and did not refute again.

Ronghua kept the "Shangshang" review, and five gold leaf flowers were pasted after the name.

However, because of the eldest princess's "outspokenness", she became a joke.

Ronghua instantly felt that everyone was staring at her makeup and her sweat, and she felt that everyone was sniffing the "sour smell" on her body.

Before she could get back to her seat, she hurriedly packed her clothes again.

Then, Liao Jing went up.

Although her outfit today is precious, it is obviously not honorable. But probably because the three of the three of the ministers already knew about her and the six princes, there was no nonsense, and the three queens gave "superior" in unison......

Another girl stepped forward, and finally got a "middle upper" because of makeup problems.

At the beginning of this competition, Rong An already felt bored.

She's still overrated.

What kind of competition, I thought that the eight immortals would cross the sea, fierce and exciting, but I didn't know that it was like choosing a concubine for the emperor, in the final analysis, it was still a game of interests of all parties!

She turned her gaze to the men's seats.

"Huh?" With such a boring competition, she thought that those sons would not be interested.

But in addition to Zhu Yongxing, who is painting again, the prince who is always pretending to be serious, Zhu Yonglin, who does not dare to sit in a precarious position today, and a group of seemingly upright princes, there is actually such a group of people, occupying a large part of the men's seat, and they are gathering around a squirrel, talking to each other......

Looking closely, it seems that Zhu Chengyi still occupies the center position of this group of people.

These people Rong An knows, they are all famous princes and grandsons in Beijing, a group of gentlemen. However, these people, who had never fought for wine and fists, did not even speak loudly, not only watched the girls' competition carefully one by one, but also held a pen and paper in their hands, and discussed while writing, as if they were analyzing something......
