The show girls should line up in order to enter the palace gate, under the guidance of the palace people, the show girls arrived at the Chuxiu Palace, a group of five people, entered the side hall, Wei Miaoniang is one of the third group, into the hall, there are three grandmothers waiting for them.
The five of them stood in a row, and the mother in the center said, "Undress." โ
The other four were still a little twisted, Wei Miaoniang did not hesitate to untie her clothes, as long as she had the opportunity to go to the prince's side, she was willing to do anything.
Wei Miaoniang took off her coat so obediently, and the three grandmothers nodded invisibly, "You go to the small room inside to lie down first." โ
Wei Miaoniang was the third to enter the small room, and after checking her body, Wei Miaoniang took out her purse and handed it over, "There is Mama Lao." โ
The grandmother did not refuse, took the purse, and said with a smile: "Miss is a blessed one." โ
"Mama Xie's words." Wei Miaoniang curtsied again, returned to the outer room, and changed the fourth young lady to enter.
The fourth lady failed to pass, and in this group, only four people went to the apse and waited for the next level. An hour later, the physical examinations of all the show girls were completed, and only one hundred and twelve of the one hundred and fifty-six show girls remained, and forty-four were eliminated.
The second level is to test knowledge, of course, it will not be too profound, Wei Miaoniang drew a poem, and the eunuch asked her to read a poem, "April is clear and rainy, and Nanshan is clear." There is no catkins due to the wind, only sunflowers leaning towards the sun. โ
"Literacy." The eunuch raised his voice.
Wei Miaoniang successfully passed the two levels of the primary election, went home from the palace, and waited for the re-election after half a month.
In the evening of this day, Mrs. Yan San was pregnant in October and gave birth to a son, weighing six pounds and one tael. Sanfang has a son-in-law, and the family is happy, oh, no, Yan Tongxiu's aunt is dying of anger, and secretly curses, "There are many children who die early, and at first glance it is a thin life, and it must not be able to raise it." โ
On the day of washing, Yan Sanye announced his son's name, "Yan Tongcheng." โ
At the end of April, the 27-month filial piety period of Sanfang Shou expired. Because Mrs. Yan San was still in confinement, Yan Ying's ceremony still couldn't be done. This made Zhao Yanqing very anxious, because Mrs. Baoqing Hou urged him again, "When will you be willing to get married?" "I used to be afraid that the Zhou family would embarrass the new daughter-in-law, but now that the Zhou family has been driven to Zhuangzi, there is no need to be afraid.
"Auntie, wait, wait." Zhao Yanqing stalled.
"Wait, wait, wait, what? Do you have a favorite little girl? Mrs. Baoqing Hou guessed.
"Yes, I have a girl I like." Zhao Yanqing admitted it calmly.
Mrs. Baoqinghou looked happy, "Whose girl is it?" โ
Zhao Yanqing thought that she would need her aunt to come forward in the future, so she decided to tell the truth, "The Yan family." โ
"How many rooms does the Yan family have?" Mrs. Baoqinghou asked.
"Miss Nine in the third room." Zhao Yanqing said with a smile.
Mrs. Baoqinghou thought for a while, "I remember that Miss Nine in the third room is from a concubine. โ
"It's from the house." Zhao Yanqing looked a little nervous.
The Marquis of Baoqing picked up the teacup and drank tea, Zhao Yanqing said gloomily: "Auntie, now that I have become the grandfather of the country, the people who looked down on me before have shown a flattering and flattering look in front of me, and they all want to climb me, but those people only have a title in their eyes, and without me as a person, I just want to marry a wife who is good to me, not a duchess of the country." โ
"What do you mean, aunt understands, it's just that this Miss Yan Jiu is a concubine, this upbringing...... I'm afraid she won't be able to help you, and she'll pull you back. My aunt doesn't want you to have such a hard time in the rest of your life. Mrs. Baoqinghou frowned.
"Auntie, the young lady from the Yan family is the same as the young lady from the grandmother, Miss Yan Jiu is a very transparent and beautiful girl, she will definitely be able to help me take care of the backyard." Zhao Yanqing hurriedly said.
Mrs. Baoqinghou smiled, "It seems that you have inquired." โ
"Yes, please ask my aunt to help me come forward and ask." Zhao Yanqing said shyly.
"Ming'er, I'll go to Yan's house to find out the tone of Old Madam Yan." Mrs. Baoqinghou said with a smile. If Miss Yan Jiu is really good, it doesn't hurt to be a concubine, heroes don't ask about their background, as long as they are good to their nephews.
"Thank you, auntie." Zhao Yanqing said with joy in his heart.
In the afternoon, Mrs. Baoqing Hou sent someone to Yan's Mansion to send a post, and Mrs. Yan replied to the post, welcoming her to come tomorrow.
The next day, Mrs. Baoqing Hou came to Yan's mansion and happened to meet Yan Hagi going out, "Xiaoxiao, where are you going?" โ
"Hello madam, I'm going to wash the stone hermitage." Yan Hagi saluted.
"Buddha bless, everyone will be safe." Mrs. Baoqing Hou clasped her hands together.
"Mrs. Cheng Jiyan." Yan Hagi smiled.
After a few simple conversations, Mrs. Baoqing Hou entered the mansion, and Yan Hagi got into the carriage. When he arrived at the Shinunnery, Yu Qingqing had already arrived, and the county lord of Heyi had not yet come.
After waiting for a quarter of an hour, the county lord of Heyi had not yet come. The two guessed that Princess Qin had trapped her, so they didn't wait any longer, knelt in front of the Buddha and chanted, "Then the Bodhisattva of Endless Intention got up from his seat...... Manchu Yaksha, Rakshasa wants to come annoying, and he is called the name of Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva...... Su Zhi Deben, everyone loves and respects. Endless ...... It should be said that those who have attained the status of a layman are the current layman...... Pushed down by people, reciting the power of Guanyin, like the sun and the void dwelling. Or be driven away by the wicked, fall to King Kong Mountain, and recite the power of Guanyin, and not lose a dime...... The wonderful sound of Guanyin, the sound of Sanskrit and the tide of the sea, and the sound of the world, are the sound that must be recited...... Nan Wu Putuo glazed world great compassion Guanyin Bodhisattva. โ
The two of them recited a total of one hundred and eight times, their mouths were dry, and when they burned the copied scriptures for the Buddha, Yu Qingqing asked, "They should have arrived in Deshi City at this time, right?" โ
"It's been a month since we set off, and if it goes well, it should have arrived." Yan Hagi inquired with Qiao Huaiqing.
"Deliver the food, rest for a few days, and then return to the capital, right?" Yu Qingqing asked again.
Yan Hagi thought for a while and said, "It stands to reason that this is the case. โ
"Buddha blesses, everything is safe and smooth." Yu Qingqing muttered as she put the scriptures into the basin.
On the other side, after Mrs. Baoqing Hou went around and expressed her willingness to marry, Mrs. Yan asked in surprise: "Madam, don't be kidding, why would Zhao Guogong want to marry the nine girls of my family?" โ
"Old lady, my nephew is also a poor child, he lost his mother at a young age, after his father remarried, he really responded to that sentence, with a stepmother, there is a stepfather, and they all regard Yanqing as a thorn in the eye." Mrs. Baoqinghou played the sad card first, and saw that Mrs. Yan's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were touched, and the words changed, "Now that the hardships are exhausted, he wants to find a good girl who is gentle and sincere, and he doesn't want those snobs, the ninth girl is what he likes at a glance, and he also asks the old lady to fulfill the poor child." โ
"You can let us think about it." Old Madam Yan did not categorically refuse.
"Then I'll come back in a few days." Mrs. Baoqinghou chatted for a while, then said goodbye and left.
Sending away Mrs. Baoqinghou, several mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law of the Yan family discussed whether this family could get married.
