Chapter 34: The Draft (Part II)
As soon as Hongday and Concubine Yu came out of Yongshou Palace, they ran into Lan Zhen standing outside, shouldn't she be inside to participate in Hongli's draft at this moment?
"Slaves and maids see Concubine Yu Niangniang, see Fifth Elder Brother." Lan Zhen rushed forward and blocked the way of Yu Concubine and Hongyang.
Yu Concubine is not familiar with Lan Zhen, but Hongzhi knows her, a year ago Hongzhi went out of the palace to do business, saved Lan Zhen's life, but she did not expect her to remember it, this time into the palace to meet again, in order to repay the grace of the day, Lan Zhen only paid attention to Mu Yao's dynamics in the Splendid Palace.
"Why are you here?" Hongtian was the first to ask.
"You know him?" Concubine Yu asked Hongtian sideways.
"Her name is Lan Zhen, and she is the daughter of Xiongbao, the staff officer of the Guardian Army." Hongyang introduced.
"Bengong remembers that you are the show girl of the fourth elder brother, why are you still here at the moment?" Concubine Yu asked softly.
Lan Zhen is neither humble nor arrogant, she explained, "Back to Niangniang's words, the slave maid had some rashes on her face yesterday, which made the concubine Niangniang dislike, and the concubine Niangniang punished her with a small punishment and a big commandment, and let the slave maid be a palace maid for half a year, so as to learn the palace rules well." ”
"Then what is the purpose of you stopping this palace?" Yu Concubine was a little confused about her intentions.
"Back to Niangniang's words, a few days ago, the folk girl met the fifth elder brother and found that the fifth elder brother's sachet was a little damaged, so she made one with her own hands, and I hope that the fifth elder brother will not dislike it." Lan Zhen blushed a little, and she held the sachet above her head to prevent others from seeing her shyness.
Concubine Yu looked down and saw that Hongday's sachet was really a little worn, and she didn't even notice it, it seemed that she was a little derelict in her duties.
Anyway, she is also a beautiful girl, not a messy woman, Concubine Yu raised her hand to take Lan Zhen's sachet, and left with Hongyang without saying anything.
At this time, the front of Yongshou Palace was already full of show girls waiting for the selection, because this time it was for the fourth elder brother to choose a concubine, the fourth elder brother Wen Tao Wuluo, and the first candidate for the throne, so all the show girls had already been waiting for the fourth elder brother's blessing, and in the future, whether the fourth elder brother was called the emperor or the king, it was a great benefit, but even so.
"The Queen Mother has arrived." "Concubine Xi has arrived." "The fourth elder brother has arrived."
With the sharp call of the eunuch, two luxuriously dressed women slowly walked in the distance, one on the left and one on the right, who seemed to be harmonious on the surface, but in fact they were already turbulent. Next to Xi Guifei is the protagonist of this time, Aixin Jueluo Hongli.
Behind him, a group of palace ladies were so frightened that they didn't dare to squeak, for fear that they would be negligent and anger their masters.
The show girls all held their breath, dressed up and hung their heads.
But Hongli is not so concerned, in his opinion, all the show girls are the same, wearing gorgeous clothes, with exquisite jewelry, one by one, it looks no fun, if Mu Yao is here, maybe it will be better, thinking of this Hongli can't help but feel sour, why did he think of him again?
"Fourth elder brother, come and see, who do you like these people?" The queen pushed Hongli in front of the people with a smile on her face.
"It's the emperor's mother." Hongli walked in front of everyone with his feet raised, and they all had names on their chests, so even if he couldn't tell the difference, he knew what kind of woman Concubine Xi asked him to choose.
Hongli took a turn among the beautiful girls, and then returned to the queen's side, the queen's jade hand was raised, and an elderly grandmother came up with a tray with a handful of jade ruyi and a few velvet flowers on it.
The queen handed the jade Ruyi to Hongli, and then said, "Fourth elder brother, give the jade Ruyi to the person you like the most." ”
Hongli took the jade Ruyi, walked to Shuzheng without hesitation, and casually stuffed the jade Ruyi into her hand.
This was so sudden, Shu Zheng couldn't believe it, did happiness come too suddenly? From now on, she will be an upright Four Blessings. Others also can't believe it, during these days in the Splendid Palace, Shuzheng is not outstanding, and the family situation is not very good, I really don't know what the fourth elder brother thinks?
Next, the fourth elder brother found a few random people to give velvet flowers, and a draft ended in a hurry.
