Chapter 10: Tempting the Heart

"By the way, Wei'er, I was so happy to see Jin'er just now, I forgot to tell you something very important!" After Zhao Jingyi and Nangong Jin'er exchanged pleasantries, they suddenly remembered that incident.

"Mother, what's going on!" Ling Yuwei asked with some surprise, judging from Zhao Jingyi's expression, she seemed to be a little embarrassed, and she didn't know what it would be.

"Before you come back, the palace sent someone to send a post, saying that after seven days, a concubine selection ceremony will be held for the three princes, and all the women in the families of civil and military officials will go to participate!" Zhao Jingyi told Ling Yuwei what was said on the post with some hesitation, she knew that she didn't like this, so she was afraid that she would be unhappy when she heard it.

"Mother's meaning, Wei'er is going too!" For some reason, when she heard that Nangong Yi was going to choose a concubine, a trace of strangeness flashed in Ling Yuwei's heart, but she didn't care about it.

"Wei'er, my mother knows that you don't like that kind of occasion, so let's go through the motions!" Zhao Jingyi remembered that Ling Yuwei said that she didn't want to marry now, let alone marry into the palace, she just wanted to find a single-minded person and live a plain and happy life.

In the past, Ling Yuwei and Leng Wuchen had a marriage contract, so naturally they didn't have to go to the concubine selection ceremony, but now that their marriage contract has been dissolved, they have to go, no matter what, the number of etiquette they should have is essential.

However, Zhao Jingyi is not worried that Ling Yuwei will be selected, because the prince can choose a concubine big or small, and the person who can become a concubine must also be talented and beautiful.

And her Vile. Although she has become smart and wise, the birthmark on her face is still so obvious, so she believes that Nangong Yi will not choose her daughter.

"Okay, then Wei'er is going!" Ling Yuwei felt that Zhao Jingyi was right, anyway, she was just going through the motions, how could someone as good as Nangong Yi choose someone like herself as a concubine?

"Auntie, what you just said is true, is the third brother really going to choose a concubine?" Nangong Jin'er, who had just walked in from outside, asked in disbelief, she had seen Nangong Yi before coming to the Prime Minister's Mansion, but she had never heard him mention the matter of choosing a concubine!

However, Nangong Yi has indeed reached the age when it is time to choose a concubine, but I don't know what kind of woman he will choose to be his concubine?

"Of course it's true, the emperor list has already been posted!" Zhao Jingyi said with a chuckle, in fact, she also felt that the news was a bit sudden, but since it had been announced, it should be true.

"Auntie, cousin, I want to go back to the palace first, and come back to see you another day!" Nangong Jin'er was a little anxious, and wanted to go back to the palace to find Nangong Yi to ask him clearly to see if he already had a favorite woman.

Before, she thought that Nangong Yi was different from Ling Yuwei, but now it seems that she guessed wrong.

"Then I'll send you back!" Ling Yuwei didn't worry about Nangong Jin'er going back alone, especially when something like that happened when she came.

"Princess, the old slave was ordered to take you back to the palace!" Just as Ling Yuwei and Nangong Jin'er were about to leave, Zhao Yun, the chief eunuch, suddenly appeared, and a gorgeous sedan chair was parked behind him.

"Cousin, don't send me, I'll go back with Manager Zhao first, don't worry, it'll be fine!" Nangong Jin'er knew that Ling Yuwei was not worried about her, so she chuckled and comforted.

"Okay, be careful all the way!" With Zhao Yun's escort, Ling Yuwei is no longer worried, no matter how Zhao Yun is also a big celebrity around the emperor, his martial arts will naturally not be low.

After Nangong Jin'er left, Ling Yuwei gradually fell into deep thought.

All she thought about was Nangong Yi's upcoming concubine selection, but she didn't think about why she cared so much, and even the strange feelings in her heart, she didn't delve into why?

"Third brother...... Third brother! As soon as Nangong Jin'er returned to the palace, she couldn't wait to find Nangong Yi, she must test his mind.

"Girl, why are you running in such a hurry!" Nangong Yi saw that it was Nangong Jin'er, and a gentle smile appeared on her face, and all her previous anger was quickly hidden.

It turned out that Nangong Yi knew that Ling Yuwei and Nangong Jin'er were being bullied on the street, and she was very angry, and just ordered her to leave at night to check the details of the hooligan.

"Third brother, are you really going to choose a concubine?" Nangong Jin'er flashed her big eyes and asked very seriously.

"The girl knows too!" A hint of strangeness flashed in Nangong Yi's heart, because he knew that Nangong Jin'er had been with Ling Yuwei all the time, and she knew it, so did Ling Yuwei also know?

Nangong Yi couldn't help but be a little curious, not knowing how Ling Yuwei would react if she knew that he was going to choose a concubine.

"I heard about it when I was in the Prime Minister's Mansion, so I rushed back to ask you immediately!" Nangong Jin'er also knew that every time the queen asked Nangong Yi to choose a concubine before, he refused, so she was curious why he agreed this time.

"Hehe, your third brother is already a big man, and it's time to make a concubine!" Nangong Yi said to Nangong Jin'er jokingly, but she was still thinking about Ling Yuwei's reaction in her heart.

"Third brother, I have something I want to ask you, I hope you can answer me honestly!" Nangong Jin'er became more and more sure that Nangong Yi would agree to choose a concubine if she had a favorite person, but she was more curious about that person's identity.

"If the girl has anything, just ask, the third brother must know everything, and he will say everything!" For Nangong Jin'er, Nangong Yi has always been extremely spoiled. Although she lives outside the palace all year round, the brother-sister relationship between them has always been the best.

"Third brother, do you already have a crush!" Nangong Jin'er saw that Nangong Yi agreed so happily, so she didn't beat around the bush again, but asked directly.

"Girl, who told you!" Nangong Yi was a little surprised, she didn't expect Nangong Jin'er to ask herself such a question.

"If you don't have someone in mind, how can you agree to choose a concubine?" With Nangong Jin'er's understanding of Nangong Yi, if he didn't have someone he liked, he would never agree to choose a concubine.

"Hehe, she deserves to be my most beloved sister!" Listening to Nangong Jin'er's reason, Nangong Yi's face once again showed a good-looking smile.

"So I guessed correctly, who that person is, is it my cousin!" Nangong Jin'er was a little excited, and couldn't wait to know if Nangong Yi's crush was Ling Yuwei.

Because she had seen clearly before, Nangong Yi was different from Ling Yuwei, and she also hoped that they could come together.

"Girl, I have nothing to say about this, at the concubine selection ceremony in seven days, everything will be revealed!" Nangong Yi hesitated for a moment, but decided to hide his liking for Ling Yuwei for the time being.

Because now he doesn't know if Ling Yuwei will have the same feelings as himself in his heart. He wanted to know, but he didn't dare to explore.

But whether she likes herself or not, she is the only concubine he thinks of in his heart.

Seven days later, the concubine selection ceremony of the three princes of Nanling Kingdom.
