Shen Xiaoyu was watching the excitement here, and Sister-in-law Sun saw someone coming at the intersection behind her, so she said to Shen Xiaoyu: "Young grandma, look, there are people over there." ”

Shen Xiaoyu turned around, took a closer look, and found that it was Zhao Xin!

When the emperor first ascended the throne, Wei Jingnian served by his side, and after bringing Zhao Xin out, Wei Jingnian went to the other palace to accompany the emperor, and now the biggest chamberlain in the palace is Zhao Xin, and general things basically will not come out of the palace.

Zhao Xin walked to the door of Shen Xiaoyu's shop, and when he saw Shen Xiaoyu there, he smiled and said, "County Lord Wan'an." ”

"Father-in-law Zhao and I don't have to be polite, it is difficult for my father-in-law to get out of the palace once, I don't know what is important?" Shen Xiaoyu asked.

Zhao Xin is a person close to the emperor, and she has to be polite.

Zhao Xin said in a sharp voice: "It's not that the prince's selection of concubines is imminent, I have to be notified by all families, and the daughters of the county lord's family are also within the scope of the election!" ”

Shen Xiaoyu was surprised: "Our family is also there?" Then he asked, "Who is there?" ”

Zhao Xin took out the roster and said, "Qin Qingyue, Qin Jiaxuan, these are these two young ladies." ”

Shen Xiaoyu has a toothache, and he is still worried about marriage, but the palace is moving fast!

Zhao Xin saw that the notice had arrived, so he said: "There is Lord Lao and Lord Qin who also said that at this time, entering the palace draft is a big deal, and it can't be delayed." ”

Shen Xiaoyu hurriedly asked, "What day is it?" "This is a difficult problem, now that there are people on the list, even if she wants to temporarily say that she will avoid the draft, there is no chance!

"It started early next month." Zhao Xin said: "Okay, the miscellaneous family will continue to notify the next family, so I will accompany less first." ”

Shen Xiaoyu nodded: "Father-in-law Zhao walks slowly." As soon as he sent the people away, Shen Xiaoyu said to his sister-in-law, "Sister-in-law, I'll go home first." Then he hurried away.

When he got home, Shen Xiaoyu saw that Qin Huaijin happened to be at home, so he went to tell him about the princess's draft, and Qin Huaijin frowned when he heard that his family was also on the list: "I was negligent, I didn't expect the concubine selection to start so soon." "Now that I'm on the list, it's too late to think of a way.

"What to do? I don't want our daughters to work with a few women! Shen Xiaoyu became worried, as soon as she entered the harem, it was as deep as the sea, even if she wanted her daughter in the future, it would be a lot of trouble to enter the palace once, and she had to prevent someone from saying that the Qin family colluded with the harem......

Shen Xiaoyu's worries were placed on Qin Huaijin, so he was much more sensible, and seeing that Shen Xiaoyu was in a hurry, Qin Huaijin asked bluntly: "What do you think...... Can our girl be chosen? ”

Shen Xiaoyu was stunned suddenly, and then smiled, she was afraid that her daughter would not be able to marry earlier, but now it has become her reassurance!

"That's right, there are so many requirements for the draft in the palace, and there are still a few scars on our daughter's body, so she definitely can't be selected!" Shen Xiaoyu said, although there is no hard rule that there are no scars, but it is always unsightly, and it will definitely be eliminated halfway!

Shen Xiaoyu exhaled heavily, and then said, "Jiaxuan, I'm not worried, Qingyue, then I have to go and talk to Erniang." Then he hurried to the remote area.

As soon as Wang Xiuyan heard Shen Xiaoyu say that her daughter was also on the draft list, she asked: "Will the draft definitely enter the palace as a concubine?" ”

"Not necessarily, the requirements of the draft are very harsh, and it is very possible to lose the draft, but we can't be the master of this matter, the list is down, we have to go if we want to participate or not." Shen Xiaoyu said: "I don't want Jiaxuan to enter the palace in the future to share her husband with other women, especially the harem is full of intrigues, I hope my daughter will not be contaminated with these sorrows." ”

Wang Xiuyan nodded, what Shen Xiaoyu said was very reasonable, especially Qin Qingyue has been protected very well since she was a child, and her temperament is soft, this is going to enter the palace, it must not be the same as a wolf entering the tiger's mouth?

"What then? Qingyue is not suitable for being in the palace, I still tell her to make some small mistakes and let people eliminate her. Wang Xiuyan said, not to mention entering the palace, even if you enter an ordinary family as a daughter-in-law, I am afraid that a concubine can make Qin Qingyue uncomfortable to death, and in the future, I don't want to ask for a good family, it is good to find someone who is not as good as the lintel of the Qin family, as long as the son-in-law does not accept a concubine.

Shen Xiaoyu nodded, as for Qin Jiaxuan in her family, she didn't need to be specially instructed to cause trouble, Qin Jiaxuan would definitely cause trouble too!

In the past, when the palace was drafted, Shen Xiaoyu's shop was going to be popular, and the old people in the Yamen of the Ministry of Industry have always adhered to the tradition of "if you don't make money, you are a bastard", and every time everyone has to take the opportunity to make a windfall.

Wu Yun's family situation is much better now, but he still comes to help in the shop, after everyone gets off work, they all come to Shen Xiaoyu's small workshop, and everyone gathers around to do the work in hand, while chatting first.

"Lord Shen's daughter is also in the draft, why don't you see Lord Shen making some jewelry for his daughter?" Master Hu asked, their daughter is also in the draft, and this time he has made every effort and prepared a lot of things.

Shen Xiaoyu frowned and cried and said, "If my daughter enters the palace, I'm afraid she will get into trouble every day." ”

Master Hu smiled: "It's so inactive, if my daughter enters the palace, the whole family will be worth it!" He can also understand Shen Xiaoyu's thoughts at this time, the Qin family doesn't need to raise their prices at this time, and the Shen family is not low, so they don't care much about the draft. The prince chooses a concubine, even if a family like them can't produce a princess, it would be good if they had a good woman, and they would become concubines in the future, and they would still shine on the lintel.

Shen Xiaoyu knew that Master Hu's family had sons and daughters, and if his daughter could enter the harem, it would be regarded as paving the way for his son. There are also many people here who have an idea, so they all see this draft as an opportunity.

After half a month of tossing, the draft finally began, Shen Xiaoyu watched Qin Jiaxuan put on a new dress, and said, "Eliminate early, it's not fun in the palace at all." If it weren't for the fear that the Qin family would be too embarrassed, I really wanted you to go in your old clothes. ”

Qin Jiaxuan was speechless: "Mother, don't worry, unless the prince likes to be beaten, he won't choose me!" In this Kyoto city, her Qin Jiaxuan's "prestige" is also famous, if she can enter the palace, the big horse monkey can be a mother.

Qin Qingyue also stood at the door, and Wang Xiuyan also instructed, seeing that the hour was almost up, she could only let people get into the carriage first.

"Remember to take care of your little aunt, you know?" Shen Xiaoyu said to Qin Jiaxuan, but after saying it, he regretted it, does Qin Jiaxuan know how to take care of it?

Qin Qingyue's face was apprehensive, so she said to Shen Xiaoyu: "Sister-in-law, I'm a little scared. ”

"Don't be afraid, just eliminate it halfway, and the palace is not a cannibal." Shen Xiaoyu comforted him a few words, and then watched the carriage go in the direction of the palace.

The two mothers stayed where they were, and they didn't know what to say, so they went back to their rooms to calm down.

Qin Jiaxuan, who was in the carriage here, looked at the carriages of other families on the street, and said, "Tsk, this young lady of the Zhao family is also going to be selected, if this is chosen, the son of the Zhao family is afraid that he will directly become a turtle grandson!" ”

Seeing that Qin Jiaxuan could still make such a joke, Qin Qingyue said: "Jiaxuan, what wrong should we think of?" "The mistake is too small, it doesn't work, if the mistake is big, the disaster will be hit, this middle degree, Qin Qingyue doesn't know how to grasp it.

Qin Jiaxuan saw that Qin Qingyue was so nervous, so she said: "Little aunt, don't be afraid, don't be afraid of big things, there are fathers and mothers who will take care of everything!" What's more, according to my estimate, unless the two of us killed the prince, otherwise it is basically not a stab at Lou Zi! ”

Qin Qingyue smiled bitterly, this Qin Jiaxuan has always been so uneasy, although she is a little aunt, she is only two years older than Qin Jiaxuan, and even the teacher at home is the same, but the two are so different.

"My little aunt looks so beautiful, I'm afraid it's hard to lose!" Qin Jiaxuan said: "I'm afraid that as long as the prince looks at his little aunt, he will have to be my little uncle!" ”

Qin Qingyue was helpless, sighed and said: "This selection is too hasty, you and I are aunts and nephews, and we have to run for election together, and the seniority is poor!" ”

Qin Jiaxuan said with a smile: "If you are really selected, the people of the Heavenly Family will not be as senior as before!" But it doesn't matter, anyway, none of us can be elected, lose early, and go home early. "She's used to being free, let her be in the palace three from the four, three virtues, three outlines and five constants, she can't stand it!

When the carriage arrived at the gate of the palace, Qin Jiaxuan and Qin Qingyue got out of the carriage and saw that many carriages were parked at the gate of the palace, and the women were also lining up one by one.

"It seems that my mother has made a lot of money this time." Qin Jiaxuan looked around, and eight out of ten girls wore on their heads, all of which were handwritten by Goldfish Fang.

Qin Qingyue glanced at it and said, "There are quite a lot of people." ”

There are indeed a lot of people, this time it is the prince who chooses the concubine, not the emperor who chooses the concubine, the prince is still young, naturally more popular than the emperor, the list stipulates that the female dependents of the courtiers' families, but the people who come also have daughters sent by the people, if they can be selected, the real chicken dog ascends to heaven.

The girls lined up at the gate of the palace, and the palace also had their own thoughts.

The queen chose a concubine for the crown prince this time, and she didn't sleep well for a few days.

In the past, the queen was afraid that the emperor would be suspicious, so she didn't really get into the in-laws with Qin Huaijin, but this time the list was seen by the emperor, and the two women of the Qin family were on the list, and the emperor did not deliberately remove it after reading it, that is, the emperor did not have much disgust with the matter of marrying the Qin family.

The queen wants to take this opportunity to promote the marriage with the Qin family, and the emperor should have figured it out, no matter how powerful Qin Huaijin is, he doesn't have any intricate family network, so even if he gets married, he will not become a relative of the country, and now that the prince is not young, it is time to find a reliable backer for the prince.

"Niangniang, the people at the gate of the palace came to report that the two young ladies of the Qin family have arrived." Xiangyue came to report and wanted to know the movements of the two young ladies of the Qin family at all times.

When the queen heard this, she said: "Greet the Internal Affairs Office directly, let people come in directly, don't queue up!" "It's also to let the people of the Internal Affairs Department know that she kept her eyes open when she chosen, and if anyone miscalculates her mind and brushes people off, she will definitely give them a good look!
