Chapter 355: Screening Portraits
Wei Chi Jin looked at her so excited, and immediately guessed what she was thinking, but he still nodded and said, "Check it out, it's that Quanzhong's eyeliner." If he guessed correctly, he should have bought people off shortly after Bai Su ascended the throne, probably because he wanted to completely grasp the movements of the puppet emperor. ”
As he spoke, he changed his words and said, "But I didn't arrest people, so don't deal with them on impulse." Since Zhang Quanzhong dared to put eyeliner next to Bai Su at that time, maybe he had greater ambitions, or he had some other plans. Let's not startle the snake and see what he wants to do. ”
He thought about it for a long time, Zhuo Yu is not the kind of person who has to be careful, and when he heard him say that there was indeed some reason, he nodded and agreed, determined to suppress this anger.
Putting aside this episode, the two quickly grabbed the frightening number of portraits of show girls on the bookcase and looked at them one by one. It's not that you have to look at it carefully, it's just that at least half of these show girls are related to some ministers in the DPRK and China. Yu Chijin himself first looked at those portraits, and then picked out the portraits of the show girls who needed to pay attention.
"This ...... How can there be so many? ”
Zhuo Yu originally thought that the people who came to participate in the draft were all young ladies who stayed at home, and no matter how much they needed attention, there should only be two or three. But looking at the twenty or so portraits that were specially picked out in front of her, she realized that she was completely overthinking.
"Although the first emperor changed some laws, and the draft is no longer mandatory for all women of appropriate age to run, you should be able to see that those ministers in the court are not fuel-efficient lamps."
Although he was angry before, but now that he really saw her so distressed, Yu Chijin still felt a little funny: "In such a matter as stuffing people into the harem, those old foxes have always adhered to the rule of casting a wide net and fishing more, but anyone who has a little kinship dares to make up the number." If you go through the records and look at the scene of the first emperor's draft, you should know that there are still few of them in front of you. ”
"It's so troublesome, no wonder my father would change the law about the draft by the way."
Zhuo Yu buried his head on the bookcase and muttered, as if he suddenly remembered something, he turned his head to look at Yu Chi Jin who was sitting next to him in such a posture: "You just said that you should pay special attention to all of this, don't you want me to include all of these in the harem?" ”
The latter raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and immediately patted her forehead lightly with the scroll in his hand that had not yet had time to unfold, and scolded: "You think beautifully!" Even if you want to include everyone, I don't agree. ”
Zhuo Yu covered his head and made a grimace, and then asked: "Since you don't have to be selected to enter the palace, what are you doing with so many of them?" ”
"You don't have to choose all of them, but you'd better just draw a few of them when the time comes."
When facing Zhuo Yu, Wei Chijin always had some unprecedented patience, and explained to her little by little: "I'll talk to you carefully about the temperament of these young ladies in a while, you'd better remember a rough idea." Whether you want to live a cleaner life in the future or whether you want to see them fight for their heads and blood, it's up to you to choose. ”
Angry is angry, how could Wei Chijin really let Zhuo Yu deal with the draft alone? A few days ago, he sent someone to investigate the temperament and hobbies of the young ladies of each family, although it was not too comprehensive, but it was still good to use it to select people.
Zhuo Yu also understood what he meant. The two choices he gave were nothing more than asking her to deliberately put together people with almost the same temper. A person with a gentle temperament is gentle wherever she goes, and no matter how much noise she makes, her ears will hurt; And the kind of ladies who have a hot temper and burn are the easiest to make noise over trivial things.
Thinking of the latter situation, Zhuo Yu felt that few people should be able to endure that kind of life, so he quickly shook his head and pulled a few portraits casually: "Then you can tell me carefully which young ladies are gentle, the gentler the better!" I don't want to finally fool the draft into the past, and it turns out that it takes three days to help them administer justice and judge right and wrong. ”
Yu Chi Jin smiled a little, but he took those portraits in his hand, and his tone was a little doting: "Okay, since that's the case, then I'll pick one more for you." ”
Zhuo Yu didn't know how he had memorized all the information of so many people in just a few days, and he remembered it so clearly. Wei Chijin not only told her about the temperament of the last young ladies who were picked out, but also told her in detail about their relationship with their respective families. Since they are all people who want to be sent to the palace to win a different kind of honor for their mother's family, Zhuo Yu naturally needs to keep all these in mind.
In addition to portraits, in terms of treating people, Wei Chi Jin also patiently taught Zhuo Yu a few basic points. Although he was still unhappy in his heart, these show girls could accompany Zhuo Yu day and night, but he was even more worried that the latter would not be able to bear to push people away. At that time, not to mention the rumors of broken sleeves are even more inexplicable, I am afraid that there are even people who will really doubt Zhuo Yu's identity.
The two guarded the pile of portraits and talked in the imperial study for a whole afternoon, until the sun set, and Yu Chi Jin finally withdrew inside. It's just that before leaving, he glanced back at the messy pile of portraits, and asked again with some anxiety: "Do you remember what I told you today?" Although the painting skills of the painters in the palace are good, but if someone makes the silver make him paint more beautifully, when you see a real person tomorrow, can you recognize who is who? ”
Zhuo Yu couldn't cry or laugh a little, for some reason, looking at Yu Chijin in front of her, she always had the feeling of seeing a nurturing grandmother.
She understood that it was for her good that Yu Chi Jin was so nervous, so she held back her smile and deliberately said in a brisk tone: "I have written it down, you can rest assured!" Although those show girls tomorrow will not write their names on their faces, the show girls will come in batches, and they can be roughly distinguished from their clothes. Besides, if I really can't recognize it then, just find the quietest one! ”
Her somewhat playful appearance really alleviated the worry in Yu Chijin's heart a little. However, he still remembered the draft in the end, in order for her to be able to move so freely in the palace in the future, he still repeatedly instructed: "Tomorrow is your draft, I am not suitable for a prince to appear over there, it is better for you to be cautious." ”
