Chapter 129: Selection and Clearance
Three days later, the whole country of Beiming selected the show girls to enter the palace, which made the ministers of the entire court, from the courtiers of the Eight Banners to the princes and nobles, all overjoyed.
When Beiming Hanxuan ascended the throne, he should have selected the crown princess, or the side Fujin, but he refused for thousands of miles, and wiped out the dreams of all the court ministers and the courtiers of the Eight Banners, and the daughters of the family were all heartbroken.
The reason, the appearance of the North Shadow Hanxuan can be said to be the first beautiful man in the North Darkness, no man dares to compete with it, but all the women who have seen him, from women to girls who have not come out of the pavilion, there is no one who is not in love at first sight, that evil and demonic face plate affects the hearts of countless girls, even the girls and young children on the side of the road say that they want to marry him when they grow up.
But this Murong Ranfan alone did not move, which really made Beiyin Hanxuan have a strong interest in her.
Now, the North Shadow Hanxuan suddenly moved out of the holy decree, the selection of the show girl, if there is a suitable candidate, then accepted as the queen, the mother of the world, regardless of the princes and nobles, the ministers of the court, have used the strength of milk, heavy money to hire etiquette masters, musicians, teachers, some even invited the Oiran of the Qinglou to teach the kung fu to please men, all thinking that their daughters can be favored by the emperor at a glance, for a while, the entire capital was as lively as a frying pot.
And Murong Qianran, with his truest identity, the daughter of the richest man in Linlang's Murong Mansion, because of his beautiful appearance and extraordinary conversation, he soon stood out from the audition, until he was in the top 100, and later, from the modern knowledge that the ancients never knew, he suddenly entered the fifty show girls in the palace.
Today, for all the show girls, it is a big day, according to the practice of the Northern Underworld, the palace put on a big show in the south courtyard, inviting all the court ministers, palace nobles, to witness the excellence of the emperor's concubines.
When Murong Qianran followed the other show girls to the South Courtyard, it was already full of people, and the Northern Darkness Hanxuan, located on the golden throne in the center, saw her in the crowd at a glance, and her peach blossom eyes were also amazing.
Unlike in Linlang, Murong Qianran at that time didn't want to stand out and be noticed by everyone, but he just wanted to find a trace of stability in the palace, of course, part of it was also for the Hasaqi clan, but now it is different, if you want to become the queen, you must be glamorous and powerful, otherwise, not to mention that Bei Ying Hanxuan intends to canonize her, it is a trouble for the ministers of the court to oppose her.
Therefore, today, she has dressed up carefully, the Feiyun bun is combed high, the gentle and soft black hair hangs gracefully on the back of her head, the hairpin is hairpinned with gold and jade beads, the willow is like a wind dance, the chrysanthemum-colored embroidered jacket and the long skirt are used as packaging, elegant and beautiful, and the light steps are dexterously swinging, with a unique style
The jade plate-like face, exquisite, two curved eyebrows, a pair of flowing autumn waves, perfect matching, looking forward to the brilliance, small and lovely red lips, bright and attractive like ripe cherries, faint tired smile, lingering in the corners of the mouth, no one can control the urge to kiss, rare in this world, amazing.
And the other show girls are also more beautiful than those goods in Linlang, the cardamom years, coupled with careful dressing, still dazzle everyone's eyes.
The conventions of the North Underworld are different from those of other countries, the conventions of other countries, after being selected as a show girl, she is the emperor's woman, which is not allowed to show her face, but it is different in the North Underworld, this selection has passed the layers of checks, and the fifty show girls have to pass the selection of poetry, song and dance, and then take out their own skills, all the ministers obey the majority, and the emperor can still be satisfied, and they will be canonized.
The level of canonization is no different from that of other countries, respectively, the main body of the middle palace, that is, the queen, followed by the imperial concubine, the concubine, and then the four concubines, Concubine De, Concubine Shu, Concubine Zhuang, Concubine Hui, but all the women who have been named concubines, the power is naturally not small, and the others who have not been selected should stay in the palace, and those with low family status should stay in the palace as palace maids or female officials or be named beauties.
Which woman doesn't want to fly on the branches and become a phoenix, even if she is named a concubine or concubine, the power of the family can be like a tiger, not to mention, Murong Qianran's purpose is the queen's throne, in fact, Beiyin Hanxuan is not unconditional, he insists on letting her stand out, and he has his own way when the time comes.
The first level to show is poetry and songs, Murong Qianran's knowledge learned from modern times is not a joke, a few poems of Li Bai and Du Fu have passed smoothly, this dynasty that has no history in history, how can it be possible to know Du Fu and Li Bai?
The singing voice is by no means a problem for Murong Qianran, coupled with a heavenly voice, a modern song is sung, and no one present is not dumbfounded, as for the musical instrument, for Murong Qianran, it is somewhat difficult, her hands, in addition to beating people, are also used to kill people with daggers, where can there be any musical instruments.
Fortunately, I learned the ancient flute for a few hours with the black tulip Oiran, and when a melodious song floated out, I didn't lose to other show girls.
Next is a skill, you know, today's selected show girls, all of them are stunts, and some of them are cheap.... Well, wrong, it's sword dancing, some dancing, some painting, and some even being so powerful that they lift weights.
And Murong Qianran's skill is to close her eyes and darts, because she either kills with a dagger or kills with a flying knife, and she really has no other skills.
She covered her phoenix eyes with a black silk scarf, and around her were ten guards walking around with apples on their heads, she threatened: It's okay to run, the palace ministers present feel fresh, if people stand still there, if they are still hit, it is a stunt, not to mention that this is still moving or running back and forth, everyone is watching with an attitude of disbelief.
Beiming Hanxuan smiled slightly, a glimmer of light flashed in the peach blossom eyes, when he saw her for the first time, he felt that she was not simple, and dared to dress so indecently when the monarchs of other countries gathered together, and she was even more articulate and had kung fu.
When the ten flying knives hit the apple, everyone present was stunned, even the guards who were running back and forth looked at the apple in their hands that was pierced by the flying knife, and suddenly, the audience burst into applause, and Murong Qianran just retreated to his position with a slight smile.
Of course, the performances of the next dozen show girls also made the audience a lot boring, some of the other show girls looked at her with envy, and some looked at her with jealousy, but for her, it didn't matter, as long as it didn't involve her interests, everything else was nonsense.
