Chapter 172: The Emperor Chooses a Concubine
Thinking like this, the panic in Concubine Yue's heart faded a lot, and she straightened her slightly curved back: "His Royal Highness the Prince, this is a holy decree issued by the emperor, if you don't obey, then what will happen to you, the prince is afraid that he knows better than this palace." ”
The prince's face stiffened, looked at the holy decree in Concubine Yue's hand, and pursed his lips: "Concubine Yue, that holy decree is not necessary to press this prince." ”
"Concubine Yue doesn't know who I am?"
He leaned over slightly and lowered his voice, Concubine Yue's face turned a little pale when she heard it, and the posture of the fox and the fake tiger of the holy decree disappeared, she gritted her teeth: "His Royal Highness the Prince, this is a holy decree, not a child's play." ”
The crown prince still maintained a slightly leaning posture, looked at the appearance of Concubine Yue's shaking when she got up, and smiled: "Concubine Yue's methods are really clever. ”
Both of them knew the meaning of the prince's words, and the palace maids in the palace did not dare to come out when they heard the atmosphere, for fear of being pulled over and beheaded because they knew too much.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, speak carefully."
Concubine Yue tried her best to control her somewhat trembling body, raised her head slightly, and then didn't wait for the prince to say anything, turned around and left the East Palace with the maid beside her, leaving only His Royal Highness the Prince, whose face was gloomy and uncertain, sitting in the center of the hall.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, do you want to pass the meal?"
The eunuch on the side shook his legs and said, the prince hummed sullenly, although the atmosphere in the East Palace was as quiet as usual, but now it was a little more depressing.
Concubine Yue's movements were very fast, and within a few days, the news that she was going to choose a concubine for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince spread, and the eunuchs who served the prince watched their master's face get colder and colder these days, and the air pressure around him became lower and lower, so the people in the East Palace were more careful.
The maid informed Gu Wanwan of the news of His Royal Highness the Prince's choice of a concubine, and at that time she was sitting by the window boredly playing with the tea set in her hand.
"Miss... Miss," the maid hurriedly walked into the room, and before she could catch her breath, she said, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is going to choose a concubine." ”
Bang.
The sound of the tea set falling to the ground came from the room that was silent for a second, and the maid was startled, and walked up quickly to check if Gu Wanwan's hand was injured: "Miss, you have to be careful." ”
"What did you say?"
Gu Wanwan didn't seem to believe it, and the maid also knew that she seemed to be a little sad, so she was embarrassed to say word for word what she heard in the front hall, but to her surprise, Gu Wanwan didn't seem to be very sad.
"Oh, that's great news."
There was a woman's sigh and smile in the room, and the maid picked up the debris on the ground for a moment, and then said a little unbearably: "Miss, you, don't be too sad." ”
Gu Wanwan didn't speak, and the maid also knew not to disturb, so she packed up her things and stood beside her, Gu Wanwan sat for a long time, and suddenly spoke.
"I'm going to the palace to participate in the election."
After the words fell, she rushed to the front hall to find her father and said that she was going to enter the palace to choose a concubine, although her father was reluctant to agree with a dark face, but he couldn't bear Gu Wanwan's entanglement, reluctantly agreed to the matter, and gave her another identity.
Midnight, inside the East Palace.
"Miss Gu sat by the window in a daze after lunch today, knowing that you were going to choose a concubine, so she decided to return to her daughter and come to participate in the selection of concubines."
Dark Eleven lowered his eyes and reported, and when the words fell, he heard the prince's angry voice.
"Nonsense."
Dark Eleven still lowered his eyes and didn't speak, The prince who was standing with his hands in his hands sighed after a while: "I'm afraid it's vinegar, you have been looking at her for a few days, don't let her enter the palace to choose a concubine, do you understand?" ”
"Yes."
It didn't take a few days for the day to choose a concubine, Gu Wanwan was both worried and happy in her heart, she got up and reached out to pull the maid who handed her a cloth towel, and lowered her voice: "You can do me a favor today." ”
The maid was puzzled, but she still nodded, and after a while, she saw a strange man standing in the courtyard, and then she understood what the young lady meant by busy.
Gu Wanwan didn't have the obstruction of Dark Eleven here, and soon arrived in the palace, she looked at all kinds of beauties and pouted.
The prince's welfare is good, she is excited to look at these beauties.
Thinking like this, Gu Wanwan sneered, she was wearing a cyan dress today, and she looked much more inconspicuous than the beauties of the bright colors she was wearing.
Because when you look at it, your eyes are attracted only by the brightest colors.
"This emperor can also enjoy it, there are so many beauties at a lot of age."
Gu Wanwan froze.
"yes."
"For whom?"
She stretched out her hand and pulled the show girl on the side, who was startled by her and lowered her voice: "To the emperor." ”
Gu Wanwan's face turned pale in an instant: "Isn't it for the prince today?" ”
"The crown prince is next month."
Concubine Yue, An Geyi, it turns out ... Gu Wanwan instantly understood that she was framed, she pursed her lips and endured the anger in her heart.
No, it can't go on like this.
Thinking in her heart, she quickly raised her eyes and swept over, in addition to the daughter of the draft, there were dozens of palace maids and eunuchs here, and she tried many times to escape, but to no avail.
After a few times, the clever palace maids and eunuchs also understood what she meant, and for the rest of the time, they all focused on Gu Wanwan, and she didn't have a chance to escape until she entered the draft girl's hall in the evening.
The guard was very strict, Gu Wanwan returned to her room with a white face, and the other show girls began to visit the door, only her room has been quiet.
At night, Gu Wanwan didn't sleep, and kept thinking about escaping at night, this is, the window in her room was opened, and she was sitting on a chair by the window, and suddenly bumped into the deep eyes of the visitor.
"Prince?"
She didn't seem to react, and muttered, and the prince didn't feel good and climbed through the window and into the window: "It's capable." ”
Gu Wanwan knew that she was at a loss, so she didn't speak, and the prince's face straightened at this time: "Why don't you trust me?" ”
She looked up at a loss, and the prince said, "Your behavior today tells me that you don't believe in our feelings. ”
"I...," Gu Wanwan said, she suddenly didn't dare to look into the prince's eyes, "I want to escape, I can't stay here." ”
She'll be absolutely safe, and her existence is a bug in this book. Gu Wanwan knew this clearly.
He also knew this, the prince pursed his lips, "In this situation, you have to have a golden cicada shell." ”
"You need to cover up your appearance, and in a short time, you will be eliminated from the draft, and then you can go back with peace of mind."
The more Gu Wanwan thought about it, the more she felt that this method was reliable, she looked up at the prince with stars in her eyes: "I believe in you, I am vinegar, and I will..."
