At noon, in the solemn and gorgeous Forbidden City, a row of neat mule carts stopped outside the Shunzhen Gate, and each mule cart was marked with the identity of each car owner, and in each bright mule cart was a show girl, a woman who was about to be the victim of the harem battle and the emperor.

Xingzhen opened the curtain, without the support of the maid, one person lifted her skirt and jumped out of the car, as soon as the heel landed, Xingzhen frowned, I have to say that Xingzhen, who had just learned to wear flowerpot bottom shoes, was dissatisfied and forced to wear shoes she didn't like.

Manchu girls are bound to their feet. But Xingzhen is different, I don't know what causes Xingzhen to have not wrapped her feet, and Xingzhen herself doesn't like to wrap her feet, every time she sees a girl on the street walking with a three-inch golden lotus, she thinks of the neighbor's daughter breaking eight toes for a pair of small feet, and Xingzhen feels pain when she looks at it.

Wearing flowerpot shoes with small feet, Xingzhen felt that her feet were painful. At the same time, one after another show girls got off the mule cart, and many show girls were all of good looks, and they were all born into famous families. At this moment, outside the door of Shunzhen, there are beautiful women like clouds. At this time, from a beautifully decorated mule cart down a slender woman, the woman was born delicate, a pair of small flower pot bottom shoes set off the three-inch golden lotus, flashing bright beads to show the extraordinary identity, only to see the woman's green head plate read: Zhengbai Flag Left Capital Imperial History of the Daughter Suo Yuluo Clan.

Seeing that it was a white flag, many show girls opened their eyes and covered their mouths.

Another woman got off the mule cart, the woman was beautiful and delicious, a pair of small feet were exquisite, not inferior to the woman with the white flag above, only to see the green head sign written Ilgen Jue Luo.

Xingzhen looked at it and thought to herself, it seems that this draft really has its own merits! Xingzhen subconsciously wiped her cheek with her fingers, and it was stained with a little rouge powder, Xingzhen recalled that when she left in the morning, she didn't say goodbye to her, even if it was only a primary; Pipa personally combed her with makeup and hair, more carefully than before, Pipa smeared rouge and incense powder for her, not thick, very light, and the decorative beads are not expensive, but I heard that Ama went down to Jiangnan to buy it, and her hair was combed very smoothly, so that she gave people a temperament of water hibiscus; When the family sent her to the gate of Di'an, Pipa quietly told her that the sadness in Madame's heart probably couldn't even fit this palace. Then she gave the pipa a smile.

Xingzhen looked up at the Shunzhen Gate in front of her, solemn and gorgeous, tall and magnificent, which is a symbol of the dignified and majestic palace and the magnificent palace. Hearing the eunuch father-in-law in the palace calling to line up, Xingzhen hurriedly went to line up. As she bowed slightly and clutched her handkerchief, she saw that the threshold of the Shunzhen Gate was so high, as high as the threshold of the Buddhist temple and the ancestral temple.

The primaries were passed quickly. But this is obviously not satisfied with Xingzhen, because Xingzhen understands that as long as the primary election is passed, it will not be easy to eliminate the women's re-election, because the primary election has changed from the original dozens of people to the current dozens, so it is estimated that these dozen people will stand in front of the emperor at that time.

At night, a cold moon hung on the high and deep blue sky, and there seemed to be few stars in the palace. Ah Zhi Xuanhu took Xingzhen's arm and said, "Sister, it's time to sleep, and I have to re-elect tomorrow." ”

Ah Zhi Xuanhu is the woman of the Ilgen Jueluo clan. It is also a coincidence that after the primary election, Xingzhen and Ah Zhi Xuanhu went to the same room to rest. Xingzhen smiled and asked, "Ah Zhi Xuanhu, your name is very good, Xuanhu, it means peace in Manchu." Why, having come to this point, do you regret coming to the draft? ”

Ah Zhi Xuanhu thought for a while and said, "Since it is called peace, in the deep palace, you can also spend your life in peace." Even if you regret it, you can only pray that you will not be drafted in the next life, and even if you do, you will not be selected. ”

Xingzhen smiled bitterly: "Yes, there is no regret medicine in the world, even if you regret it, you can only not make mistakes in this life in the next life, and I hope that you will not have anything to do with the emperor's family in the next life." ”

As she spoke, Xingzhen smiled unconsciously, and said, "You said that we, just a few years old, we will talk about the next life and the next life, okay, go back to sleep." ”

A white sun slowly rises from the east, illuminating the entire Forbidden City. Xingzhen got up surprisingly early today, and Ah Zhi Xuanhu teased her for talking earlier than the emperor, and Xingzhen smiled. Today is going to meet the emperor and the concubine, even if Xingzhen knows that the probability is very small, but she still prays in her heart countless times not to choose, because Xingzhen knows that if she chooses, she will lose too many friends, including Pipa, so she doesn't want to choose. Following the father-in-law, he came to the imperial garden, and the father-in-law said that the show girls would rest here first, and the imperial concubines would come later.

Strange flowers and plants in the imperial garden, pavilions and pavilions, glazed bricks and tiles, crystal clear. Xingzhen said: "It is estimated that the scenery of the palace is here all year round." Now, beautiful scenery, this emperor has a good eye. ”

Nowadays, it is the season when the apricot blossoms are blooming, the trees are snow-white and picturesque, and each flying petal has a faint fragrance, and every white petal is dyed with a faint red. Xingzhen grabbed the yarn, suddenly thought of something, smiled happily, and said to the show girls: "Even if you say rest, let's play with the cloth mouse." After saying that, Xingzhen quickly folded a cloth mouse in three strokes and two clicks.

This attracted many show girls. Ah Zhi Xuanhu smiled: "Ask you, what are the rats most afraid of?" “

"I'm afraid of rice."

Yixiu Nu was curious: "Hey, don't rats love to eat rice the most?" “

"Because I love to eat, I'm afraid of choking."

Ah Zhihuhu hid his face and smiled: "Well, others say that mice are the most afraid of cats, but when you become mice, you are the most afraid of rice." “

"Hey." Xingzhen smiled lively, "Natural enemies are nothing, the important thing is that the one you love the most will hurt yourself, which is the most terrible." “

Xingzhen said: "Okay, rats are most afraid of rice, but they also love to eat rice the most, so find someone to be rice." “

"Well------" Xingzhen looked around, at present, she only knows Ah Zhi Hu, in order to make a few more friends, so she can't invite Ah Zhi Hu, alas, wait, it seems that the show girl is very eye-catching.

Xingzhen gently pulled the show girl and smiled like sunshine: "Please come and be rice~"

"Huh?" Although the show girl knew what was going on, she was still in a state of confusion about her sudden and inexplicable becoming a rice.

"Ahem, since she is a rice, then I will be a cat." Xingzhen looked back and saw that it was the curious mouse who loved to eat rice, and at this time, Xingzhen saw the appearance of this show girl clearly: goose egg face, thin eyebrows, born like flowers and jade, looking down, it was a pair of small and delicate three-inch golden lotus.

For the girl recommended by Mao Sui, Xingzhen has always been very welcome, and said, "Okay." By the way, what's your name, let's introduce it! “

"My name is Gion."

"My name is Xingzhen."

Xingzhen smiled heartily, she just said her name simply, maybe her father's official position was very high, maybe her flag status was very high, but she didn't put up a fight, which made Xingzhen feel very like, and Xingzhen didn't look at her green card.

Giun took the arm of the rice show girl and introduced, "She is Yi. “

This time, Xingzhen carefully saw Yi's appearance: almond eyes, melon seed face, but flower and moon appearance, and a pair of small flower pot bottom shoes are very exquisite.

Xingzhen said: "You seem to have a good relationship. “

"Yes, Yi and I were assigned to a room to rest yesterday."

"Well, it looks like you've known each other for a long time." After that, Xingzhen suddenly turned around, pinched the cloth mouse in her hand, and said with a smile, "Okay, the mouse who was about to steal rice met the cat, so he ran away with a smoke." “

Before Ji Ouen and Yi could react, Xingzhen smiled as she ran, "The rat ran away." “

Giun said: "You can still run so fast in flowerpot shoes. “

Yi said: "Anyway, do you want to catch up?" “

Ah Zhi Xuanhu said: "Should I help Xingzhen, oh, not a 'mouse'." “

As soon as the words fell, Giun and Yi chased after him almost at the same time, but they didn't run fast. Xingzhen saw that the two chased after her, and laughed: "Don't want to catch up~"

"Wait, don't try to escape!"

In the case of being "their own people", the three of them were more free and easy, suddenly, Xingzhen braked suddenly, and immediately stopped, and Giun and Yi also stopped immediately when they saw this, just when the two were about to ask why they stopped, they saw a bright yellow corner of their clothes come into view.

Bright yellow!

The two immediately understood what they meant, and they wanted to take Xingzhen with them, but they knew that they couldn't do it in front of that person, so they had to give Xingzhen a "brother take care" look, and slipped away.

Xingzhen exclaimed: "It's you!" ”

I saw that the man in front of him had a face like a crown of jade, his lips were like Zhu Dan, his eyes were bright, and he was wearing a bright yellow eight-dragon embroidered horseshoe sleeve arrow suit, which set off the spirit.

It's the same man I met at the theater last time!

The man exclaimed, "It's you!" ”

Xingzhen said excitedly: "I thought I wouldn't see you in the future." ”

The man said in his heart: "Didn't she see my dragon robe and regular clothes?" Still, that's fine. ”

The man said, "Magnolia." ”

As soon as she heard this name, Xingzhen became energetic: "You haven't told me your name yet!" ”

"Ahem, Magnolia, you'll know sooner or later. Then again......" The man looked Xingzhen up and down, "Are you a show girl?" ”

"Yes! Then again...... Xingzhen looked the man up and down, "You are the emperor?" “

"Yes! Speaking again...... "Before the man could finish speaking, he saw that Xingzhen had slipped away. The man thought to himself, how could he slip away in a good way? But I saw a cloth mouse left on the ground, which should have been inadvertently thrown by Xingzhen, the man picked it up and opened it, only to see an apricot blossom with fruit embroidered on the gauze, and the word "Xingzhen" was embroidered next to it.

It turns out that her name is Xingzhen! The man thought to himself, what a nice name! As soon as he was excited, the man chased after him. The emperor came, and the father-in-law who happened to be in charge also came, and when he saw the emperor, he was about to lead the ladies to greet the Son of Heaven, but he was signaled by the man not to. The man stepped forward, carefully took Xingzhen's hand, and asked softly, "What's your last name?" ”

"......" At the moment of holding hands, Xingzhen's face was already flushed, her heart was beating rapidly, and for Xingzhen, who was holding hands with a man other than her family for the first time since she was a child, she was completely speechless.

The man asked again cautiously, "What's your last name?" ”

"Ye ......" At this time, Xingzhen's heart was both nervous and excited, and at the same time excited, and finally, Xingzhen plucked up the courage and said, "Ye, Yehenara." ”

When Xingzhen said this sentence nervously, excitedly and excitedly, she felt the man's face darken and gloomy, and a vague bad premonition rose in Xingzhen's heart.

The man said with a gloomy face: "You say it again, what's your last name?" ”

"Yehnara." When Xingzhen carefully finished saying this sentence with anticipation, her hand had been shaken off by the man, and when she was thrown away, Xingzhen felt that something was stuffed by the man in her hand------ it was Xingzhen's gauze. Is it Xingzhen's delusion? Why does it feel that the hand contains a lot of complex emotions when the man is thrown away. In short, Xingzhen only knows that she is very sad now, and there is a feeling of being beaten on the tip of her heart. She rarely gets sad. Xingzhen had a feeling of wanting to cry, but she didn't dare to cry and forcibly took her tears back. How could she cry in full view? Xingzhen has a kind of naked standing in front of everyone's eyes, and the public opinion that could be heard in the past has now become clearer and more harsh: "Poor, it's surnamed Yehenara." "Yes, you must know that Yehenara and Aixin Jueluo are enemies." "Do you think she'll be eliminated?" "Very likely." "It's best to knock it out, look at her vixen." "I didn't know any rules like that just now." "That's right."

What happened to the last name Yehenara?

Hey, weird, I don't want to be eliminated.

What's wrong with me?

Wasn't that what you were most interested in just now? And say I don't know the rules?

At this moment, Xingzhen's heart was full of these public opinions, and she silently fought back in her heart, but she didn't say anything verbally. Yi was very angry about this, but she didn't dare to say anything, because after all, the saint shook it off, Yi took Xingzhen's hand and encouraged her: "It's okay, maybe if you don't choose, you won't have to suffer in the deep palace." Like the sunshine, Xingzhen felt that her heart was no longer so painful, there was a feeling of being warmed, Xingzhen was touched by Yi, she held back her tears, and said to Yi with a smile: "Hmm." Thank you! ”

Under the apricot blossom tree, the white petals flutter like snowflakes in the sky, the year she entered the palace, Xingzhen silently swore in her heart that if she could, she would protect her for a lifetime.
