Give you a ladder to heaven, and whether you want it or not, it depends on whether you are not wise.

It is also possible to kick these people directly to the West Garden of the Palace, I believe that the flamboyant energy of the West Garden of the Palace will definitely hold a banquet, and then there will be more excitement, Qingyi is looking forward to it!

The more than 200 daughters left behind, looking at Qingyi's smile suddenly became a little cold, there are many smart people who have already understood, knowing that there is such a number one person as Qingyi in this palace, their careful thinking can't be used at all, so they simply don't pay much attention to the competition and screening.

So for a whole day, more than 260 people were kicked out in the four items of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and the palace guest house was suddenly a lot more relaxed.

In order to avoid extraneous branches, Qingyi decided to screen continuously.

On the fourth day, the sixth item of female red was examined, and the exam questions were very simple, each person embroidered a handkerchief with one hour.

The topics are lotus, lotus, chrysanthemum, plum blossom, orchid, bamboo, osmanthus, moonflower, lily, begonia flower.

This topic is not difficult, and it is also the most common pattern on the handkerchief, but it can be embroidered in a short time, and the one who takes the school is the real skill.

For Zhou Jiaying, who can only use a whip, this is undoubtedly difficult.

Therefore, Zhou Jiaying said: "The princess's exam questions can be understood by everyone in the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but this female celebrity has her own subordinates to do it, what is there to test this skill?" ”

Qingyi didn't speak, and Mama Shui said, "Ladies and gentlemen, didn't the family explain how to practice needlework well?" If a woman can't make clothes for her husband in her life, it is undoubtedly a pity. ”

After Mama Shui finished speaking, naturally the remaining more than 160 people also understood the truth, and they also patiently started embroidery.

However, in the last link, Zhou Jiaying reluctantly passed, she chose a relatively uncomplicated orchid, after all, the concubine of a big family can't be a thing no matter how bad it is.

But in this link, there are still a lot of people who have been brushed off, some because the embroidery is crooked, and some because they can't see what the embroidery is, so the needlework is not up to the mark, but it is reduced by seventy or eighty people.

Because some people embroider messily, they can't tie their fingers, and even the delicate ladies don't know how to needle and thread at all, so the natural elimination rate is very high.

In less than a few days, there were only eighty-six of the more than 500 people in the palace.

To Qingyi's surprise this time, the eldest ladies of each family were really there, even He Weiwei and He Lanlan were there, which was really interesting.

It seems that these families have really worked hard to climb a high branch in the future.

In the past few days, the competition has made the surrounding area of the palace lively, and every day there is a discussion about how many people can come out, which is the most lively prosperous time of the year for the people of Kyoto.

The streets and alleys were talking about this matter, and even the emperor inquired about it, and Gonggong Li told the emperor the details of the secret guard's investigation.

The emperor smiled incomprehensibly, "This Qingyi is an elf smart, these topics look ordinary, but in fact, they are the easiest to sweep the sand." ”

In addition to agreeing with the emperor's words, Gonggong Li didn't seem to be able to say anything else, so Gonggong Li said, "Your Majesty, even if this little princess is smart, but she is not as powerful as the emperor, the old slave can still stay in the end, and when the time comes, it is the little princess herself who did not make it difficult for these people to leave, but the emperor can't be blamed." ”

The emperor happily took a sip of tea and said, "Hmph, I see that it is all children's play, if there is really that city lord's order, it is estimated that it will not be subject to us." ”

Gonggong Li just responded, this time he was very smart and didn't say anything, because he knew that Princess Pingyuan was really not easy to mess with, and he hadn't offended himself for so many years, but the emperor was struggling to force the two children, but he was just a slave, and he didn't dare to say anything, so he could only let it go.

The excitement here in the palace continues, and the seventh item of the test from the fifth day is cooking, the rule is to make four dishes and one soup in one hour, a dim sum and a staple food, if it is not made, or it is not enough to be regarded as elimination.

As soon as this decision was announced, these eighty or so people opened the pot.

The eldest lady of the Yu family, whose index finger was not wet, said unhappily, "Why is the princess so embarrassed, this cooking is just a subordinate trick, and the skin stained by oil smoke is broken, can I wait for the side concubine to be the one who has not yet served?" ”

Qingyi just can't get used to this pretense, Qingyi said slowly, "This skill must be examined, as the old saying goes, to capture a man's heart, you must capture a man's appetite, you can't tell the difference between eggplant and pepper, how can you do it?" The wealth of the palace is not permanent, and the name of the palace is not hereditary, and it is the royal family to keep it for a few generations, maybe the palace will become a common person in the future, and the common people have few people in their families, and they are all self-made and well-fed, does this simple truth still need to be said over and over again by the princess? ”

At first, everyone thought it was a joke when they heard that the wealth of this palace could be retained, but gradually they heard that the princess was always emphasizing, and it seemed that they had begun to believe it.

I also remembered that I was at home, and my father and mother said that the matter of this plain palace, there are many daughters who began to calculate whether it was suitable in the end?

caught up with youth, and in the end it was a concubine, maybe in the end the princess was gone, and she was an ordinary concubine, so many people were shaken, after this cooking competition, maybe someone saw the form clearly, or was discouraged, and even eliminated more than 50 people.

After tossing for a few days, Qingyi finally saw some eyebrows, of these more than 500 people, there are only 30 left at the moment, but in what wonderful way will these be eliminated, it is estimated that there are too many people waiting to see......

At present, the most lively thing in Kyoto these days is the matter of the Pingyuan Palace's selection of side concubines, usually people are royal marriages, or the big families themselves pay a dowry to marry, only this Pingyuan Palaces is a really good place.

How many famous ladies are trying to save face, but they also want to squeeze in, it is estimated that looking at the entire Tianyang Kingdom, only Qingyi, the princess, has offered a condition of 50,000 taels.

But this time it did break through the eyes of many people, such harsh conditions, and more than 500 people entered, and now the streets and alleys are talking about it, this princess will really make money, it's too powerful.

Especially now that there are more than 500 people, only 30 are left, and everyone is looking forward to who can stay in the end.

In a teahouse in Kyoto, several children of the family talked loudly, "Hey, how many people can be left in the palace this time?" ”

The cheesy man in a bright red robe and a golden crown on his head is the descendant of the Sun family, the head of the Hubu Shangshu, and the eldest brother of Sun Tianmei, who has been paying attention to the situation in the palace every day these days.

A man in blue said, "Pingyuan Wangfu has always been very special, who knows the result, but Pingyuan King is so Yanfu, so many fat and thin women, why don't you give my brother a few points, it's really stingy." ”

This man in blue is the son-in-law of the Gao family, and he is usually very comfortable with these children of the family, and he thinks that he is strong, so he can't say anything to others, and he doesn't say anything, because he is not an official, so there is something great.

"But it's not the point that you still don't understand, no matter who is left in the end, this real silver has gone into the pocket of the palace, we are really fucking unlucky, why didn't we marry a woman like Princess Pingyuan, and I can make money, and I can come up with ideas, I heard that the old man of our family came back a few days ago and his face was green, what are you doing, this princess is too powerful, she is ruthless in doing things, so many women's fathers and mothers don't dare to let it go, and it is not Baba who gave the compensation money for destroying the house."

This is the second son of the Yan family, who is usually the most favored in front of his father and mother, and he is also a descendant, so although his father's official position is not as big as others, this status is not small among many sons.

Seeing that their father became that virtue, the second son of the Yan family was really surprised, what did he see in this palace, Lord Yan naturally couldn't say much when he went home, or he pestered his mother to say it.

I knew that there was such a thing in the palace, which was really rare.

"It's the same in our family, if it goes on like this, the rules of Kyoto will be broken, and it's not a big deal to accept a woman, how did it get like this? Our family has lost financial and material resources in vain, and the whole family is busy with it, can't we think of any ideas? ”

The eldest son of the Yao family, the secretary of the military department, has always been resourceful, and in his heart he has a great interest in Qingyi, who didn't see his face clearly at the palace banquet, and he was secretly depressed in his heart If such a woman came to their Yao family, it would be a good thing to add wings.

It's a pity that it fell into such a complicated place as the Pingyuan Palace, but it is because of this that it will attract everyone's attention, this Pingyuan Palace's little, who in Kyoto doesn't know, so the solid second room of the palace has been hit, although it is now a bit of an official position, but it does not mean that those things that were shameful in the past are gone.

As soon as the eldest son of the Yao family said this, several people immediately became interested, and finally decided to gamble, and injected money into various casinos in Kyoto.

As everyone knows, this gambling is a natural risk, and many times it is a man-made natural risk, and if you don't pay attention to it, you will go bankrupt, of course, this is a later story.

But these boys, the means are really fast, originally this matter is just a small gamble, the people are willing to have fun and participate.

As a result, because of the participation of these sons, many families were involved, and the gambling house in Kyoto began to be lively in the past few days, and the highest was to press two to stay, followed by one to stay, and then three to six to stay.

Moreover, gambling funds are constantly infiltrating into it, and there is a tendency to never give up.

The atmosphere of the whole Kyoto is very lively, different from the past, many people walking on the street, are rushing to this fresh and energetic thing to pass by the main gate of the palace to see, this curious people are a lot, so that the whole front of the palace is very lively.

There are people coming and going in front of the palace, there are people buying things and shouting, there are carriages sent by various families to pick up people, and there are people squatting and waiting for news, not to mention how lively the whole street is.

At this time, Qingyi doesn't care about the upheaval outside, just half-lying on the couch and closing her eyes to recuperate, but she has been tossing enough in the past few days, and she is thinking about how to compare tomorrow and what is more suitable for the day after tomorrow.

Shui Mama came in and said, "Master, the gambling house outside has been turned upside down, and now the specific numbers are marked, and there are a lot of people who inject money into it, according to Jin Yu's investigation, there are probably tens of millions of funds flowing into the casino, I don't know how there are so many big families in Kyoto." ”

Qingyi opened her eyes and sat up, her eyes were full of surprise, and she secretly said in her heart that God helped me!

Qingyi is worried about returning to Heping City, so many places need to use silver, this silver can naturally get more in Tianyang Country, this is not a sleepy pillow, and it deserves that these families are not pure-minded, you calculate other people's actions, but what do you calculate for me?

So Qingyi crackled for a while on the abacus on the kang table and said, "It's good news for us, but Shui Mama, let's not move now, and when it comes to the last day, we will buy tens of millions of dollars in the morning, and no one will stay, so that most of the funds in Kyoto can flow back to our place,"

"At present, the economy of Tianyang Kingdom is in a recession, and the outside world generally believes that although the royal family did not say it explicitly this time, in the end, the princess must have left at least one or two, these families must have been prepared, otherwise they can't make such a big fuss, if the guess is good, even the masters in the palace have followed up, this time it depends on how we reverse the situation."

Mama Shui said respectfully, "What the master said is reasonable, don't these people just look at the master and bully, why don't they bully others, they think that the master's maiden family is not brilliant, and they can take it at will?" I don't look at the Qianji Gate behind the master, where can they afford to provoke it. ”

Shui Mama is really angry in her heart, these people are a group of dogs who look down on people.

It's just a group of people who don't know four or six, and they can't get anything into it, and there is no reason for such people to talk about at all, and the only way is to let them be hit hard, and they don't have the ability to make these storms.

Qingyi instructed to go down and said, "We will do it as soon as possible in the next two days, you let Leng Li put on makeup and do it yourself, so as not to make any mistakes at that time, so much silver is not a small amount, we still have to be careful." ”

Mama Shui hurriedly went to arrange it, Yuzhu came over with hot tea, poured a cup for Qingyi and said, "Master, I've been tired lately, if the master knows that this Tianyang Kingdom is so tormented by the master, he will definitely not let go of these people, the slave and maid are distressed when they look at you." ”

Qingyi asked Yuzhu to come to his side, but Yuzhu still moved a brocade stool to sit on the side in strict obedience, Qingyi said slowly, "Those who become big things are not informal, the emperor of Tianyang Kingdom is conceited, thinking that he can achieve great things himself, which is also the dream of any emperor, but this old emperor's mistake is to put all his calculations on me, how can we let people knead and change?" ”

Yuzhu looked at the master, who was a little distressed recently, and said, "Master, you have lost weight recently, if the master knows, maybe how distressed is it, you must know that it is too difficult for the master to raise some meat, don't you see that the good mother has a big temper recently, the master raised it well, but as a result, it was such a toss, and the good mother felt that her months of hard work were in vain." ”

Qingyi smiled and sounded Shan Mama, it is true that these subordinates have been with him for more than ten years, I have to say that Qingyi treats them like relatives, of course, she will not cross the boundary between master and servant, otherwise Lezhu's kind of goods will float out.

Yuzhu can probably understand why the master's face is not very good-looking, compared to the dedication of the good mother, Lezhu is not satisfied, such a good master, and finally make such a trouble, it is really a pity to die.

Yuzhu said, "Master, the slave maid thinks that these people are better sent early, so as not to cause extraneous branches, and finally left these people The slave and maid took a look, they are all the eldest daughters of each family, I am afraid that it will be difficult to send it after a long time." ”
