12. Foregone conclusion
"Huh?" Yun Qingyuan exclaimed, "Wouldn't today's election be successful?" ”
"If you have a fever, you have to rest well, otherwise what if you infect us?" Qin Peihan snickered in his heart, without her today, he would be more likely to be favored by the emperor.
"Wasn't it good yesterday? Why did you suddenly get a fever? Zhou Luying glared at Qin Peihan, and asked Tao Zhiyuan worriedly.
"I don't know...... That's what I woke up this morning. Tao Zhiyuan's voice was subtle.
Zhou Luying just wanted to open her mouth to ask, the imperial doctor came, Tao Zhiyuan stretched out his hand to let him take the pulse, and after a while, he said: "This little master is infected with wind and cold, and he is worried and uncomfortable, so he will have a fever." ”
"Then today's election, I'm afraid she can't go, right?" Qin Peihan asked proudly.
The imperial doctor shook his head: "The little master has to rest, otherwise it will be difficult to recover, plus someone is infected in the election, the emperor will feel unlucky, which no one can afford." ”
Qin Peihan heard what the imperial doctor said, and finally put his mind at ease, so he didn't stay any longer, and immediately returned to the room to continue dressing up.
"Little Master Qingling, you also heard it, the slave maid went to talk to the election supervisor first." Aunt Zhang said to Yun Qingyuan and Zhou Luying again: "Two little masters, you better hurry up and prepare, just have a dream here." ”
Yun Qingyuan looked at Tao Zhiyuan in a daze, she was obviously fine yesterday, but she had a fever today, and felt a little strange, but she thought about it repeatedly, this may be the method that Tao Zhiyuan came up with, since this is the case, she can only go back first.
Zhou Luying glanced at Tao Zhiyuan meaningfully, and followed Yun Qingyuan out.
Finally, when everyone went out, Tao Zhiyuan was relieved, is this considered a success? Without the general election, the emperor will not be able to see her, and he will not be involved in the battle of the harem.
Tao Zhiyuan was covered with a quilt, the temperature was getting higher and higher, but she was slowly sweating, her mind gradually became clear, and she faintly heard the sound of silk and bamboo, presumably the election had begun.
The general election is just a formality, and the highest show girl is also a five-grade talent, and most of the others are sixth-grade Baolin and seventh-grade royal maids, like her, who did not participate in the election, that is, the lowest concubine, and the eighth-grade girl.
In fact, on the day of the election, it is to make the emperor fall in love with himself, and then soar to the top, collecting three thousand favors in one.
It's just that this seems impossible, because I heard Aunt Zhang say that this harem is essentially the world of virtuous concubines, and her father Wei Sen is the prime minister of the dynasty, holding the political power, and also holding half of the military power of the Dajing Dynasty.
So this seems to be a rule that has been formed silently, if you want to occupy a place in the harem, the most important thing to please is not the queen, but the virtuous concubine.
Tao Zhiyuan was disgusted, those big bosses in modern times have a few aunts and wives, and they are fighting all day long. She once said that her husband can only have one woman, and now she wants to be one of the emperor's women, how can she do it!
But...... Her expression darkened, the emperor and Yi looked so similar, was this a coincidence or what did it mean? And that day, he also said that he wanted to see her on the day of the election, so if he can't see her today, will he come to her?
Soon she shook her head again, the men of the emperor's family are all affectionate, how can they remember her.
It's just that there is still a glimmer of hope in my heart.
Is he the same as Yi, or, he is him, Yi is Yi?

The sky is a pale blue, and the breeze has a sweet floral scent.
Today's weather is fine, Tao Zhiyuan is lying on the chaise longue under the tree, she is satisfied with the afternoon breath, and the corners of her mouth are hooked with a smile.
At this time, Yingmeng brought a cup of tea and some pastries, put them on the small round table next to the chaise longue, and said respectfully: "Niangniang, the tea is here." ”
Tao Zhiyuan opened her eyes slightly, sat up, and stretched.
"Come, sit together." Tao Zhiyuan patted the chaise longue and motioned for Yingmeng to sit down as well.
Yingmeng hurriedly shook her head, took a few steps back, and said, "Niangniang, this is absolutely out of order." ”
"What's not in order, it's just you and me here, what's there to be afraid of." Tao Zhiyuan pretended to be a little angry, "If you don't sit down again, I'll have to take back the money bag I made." ”
Ying Meng was startled, and immediately went over and sat down, muttering in a low voice: "How can there be a reason to give it to others and take it back." ”
When Tao Zhiyuan heard this, she was happy, and said savagely: "I just have this privilege." ”
Yingmeng pursed her lips and turned her head to ignore Tao Zhiyuan. Seeing this, Tao Zhiyuan picked up the teacup and smiled at Yingmeng and pleaded: "Oh, my aunt, I know it's wrong, can't I forgive me?" In the future, I don't dare to say two if you say one, and if you don't allow me to take back the money bag, I won't accept it. ”
Yingmeng smiled, it was all the innocent romance of the little girl, she took the tea, and said angrily: "My good master, you love to mess around, Aunt Zhang will come after a while, and when she sees you like this, she will say that the master is not." ”
"Isn't there still you next to you who say good things? Afraid of what. Tao Zhiyuan smiled brightly.
"Then Aunt Zhang scolded me too, saying that I messed around with you, regardless of dignity or inferiority." Yingmeng said, "Last time, it wasn't Yuncai who interceded, Aunt Zhang gave up, in the end, it wasn't the master who dragged me down." ”
Yingmeng mentioned Yuncairen, and Tao Zhiyuan paused slightly.
It has been a month since the general election, and in that election, Zhou Luying, who had the highest concubine position, was named a fifth-grade talent, while Yun Qingyuan and Qin Peihan were named a sixth-grade Baolin. Among the many show girls, the three of them are the most favored, and Yun Qingyuan was just promoted to the fifth grade talent ten days ago, which made many people red-eyed.
And she is happy to live in this remote Yingyue Xuan, and Aunt Zhang also specially assigned Yingmeng, an unwitting palace maid, to her, which is good for both of them. She is just a girl of the eighth grade, and the supplies sent at the beginning are of poor quality, Yun Qingyuan's favor makes the meals, clothes and jewelry sent by the Shang Food Bureau and the Shang Gong Bureau much better, this is the rule of the harem, Tao Zhiyuan doesn't mind.
The only thing that made her unrelieved was that the emperor, Xuanyuan Yunyi, really forgot her.
"Mother?" Ying dreamed of her distracted appearance, so she called softly.
"Huh?" Tao Zhiyuan came back to her senses and saw that Yingmeng was looking at her worriedly, and her heart was hot
, This month's relationship with Yingmeng, she has already regarded Yingmeng as her sister, and the two of them are not big or small in Yingyue Xuan.
"Yingmeng, whose brand did the emperor turn over last night?"
"It's Zhou Cairen, but later someone reported that Concubine Xian was uncomfortable, so the emperor went to Concubine Xian."
Tao Zhiyuan took a piece of osmanthus cake and put it in her mouth, and said slowly: "Sister Luying has been summoned for three days in a row, and it is normal for Concubine Xian to be unable to hold back her anger." ”
"Didn't the mother think about competing for favor?" Yingmeng asked cautiously.
"Isn't it nice to live like this?"
