Emperor Chu Ran was only sixteen years old in this world, and he had not yet married a wife.

It stands to reason that he should have married a wife and had children at this age, but in recent years, the emperor's health has been poor, and the body insisted on waiting for the emperor to recover before marrying a wife, but he didn't expect that the emperor died in the end.

The emperor's draft is naturally a first-class event in the palace, and on this day, Chu Ran wants to wear a yellow robe to show his dignity.

Not only was Chu Ran's decoration, but Xiao Dongzi on the side also put on a formal eunuch uniform.

Even the palace walls along the way are tied with red cloths, and red lanterns are hung on the palace doors of each store, giving a festive atmosphere.

Chu Ran had only seen such a scene in court dramas on TV before, and he couldn't help but be a little apprehensive when he sat on the sedan chair.

It's almost impossible to say not to go to the draft. If the emperor has reached such an age and still does not marry a wife, it is a great thing.

Don't say whether the Queen Mother and those old ministers will nag him to death, even among the people there will be various versions of rumors.

Since it is inevitable, it can only be accepted silently.

As they walked, a group of people appeared in front of them.

It was a woman dressed as a palace maid, walking slowly against the palace wall.

"Ahh Is that the emperor? ”

I don't know who turned his head in the distance, saw Chu Ran's car, and couldn't help but exclaim.

"Shut up, there are no rules!"

I don't know who drank it, and no one in that group dared to say anything.

When Chu Ran was about to pass them, those people knelt down one after another, bowing their heads and bowing in worship.

These are show girls, right?

Looking at the women dressed in palace maid costumes, Chu Ran guessed in his heart.

Sitting on the dumplings, Chu Ran's identity is the king of a country, so naturally he can't ask. After a while, the sedan chair came to the front of the Xuanhe Palace.

The Xuanhe Hall can be said to be the largest palace in the imperial palace of the Great Xia Kingdom. This is the place where the court meeting is held, and Chu Ran ascended the throne here before.

The entire Xuanhe Hall Square is the size of a football field, paved with white marble, and there are ninety-nine steps in front of the hall, everything looks so luxurious.

"The emperor has arrived!"

The celebrant eunuch who was waiting at the gate of the temple saw the arrival of the holy chariot and let out a thin and long cry.

The sedan chair was lifted to the bottom of the steps and stopped.

Looks like it's leaving!

Seeing the steps in front of him, Chu Ran smiled bitterly. Who said that the emperor is good, and now he is wearing a dragon robe weighing more than 20 pounds and has to walk so many steps, everything seems to be for some so-called dignity,

Fortunately, Chu Ran is now at the level of the late stage of the first level of the Earth Master, and it is not too difficult to walk these steps.

When he came to the main hall, Chu Ran saw the Queen Mother Wei sitting on a huge chair next to the dragon chair. Behind her, there were two palace maids who were not young.

"Say hello to the Queen Mother!"

Taking two steps forward, Chu Ran saluted slightly. Sometimes, etiquette is also a must-do.

"The emperor is here, sit down!" Wei Shi smiled, and his makeup did not look old at all: "Today is a big day, the emperor must choose a few more, so as to extend more heirs for the royal family." ”

After a few casual conversations, Wei waved his hand towards the celebrant eunuch at the entrance of the hall.

"Draft girl begins!"

As soon as the eunuch's voice fell, a row of ten women slowly walked to the middle of the hall.

That's too young, isn't it?

At a glance, Chu Ran couldn't help frowning.

Those ten women, no, should say girls, are too young.

No matter how you look at them, they are not more than fourteen years old, and some even look to be only eleven or twelve.

Is this a draft or an elementary school selection? Chu Ran's heart rose with a real sense of helplessness.

"Feng Yuru, the daughter of Feng Zun, the head of the household, is thirteen years old."

The thin voice of the celebrant eunuch sounded again, and then a woman took a step forward and bowed to Chu Ran.

The girl was no more than thirteen years old, and she was slim. But her eyes made Chu Ran a little unbearable.

That Feng Yuru exuded a charming meaning in the extension, as if he was seducing Chu Ran intentionally or unintentionally.

"I think this girl looks smart."

Wei on the side looked at Feng Yuru in front of him, and said with a smile: "How about the emperor, do you have a heart?" ”

Most of the girls who can come to participate in the draft are after the official eunuchs and have been cultivated since childhood. It can be said that he is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but this is not enough.

To be able to become the emperor's wife, you must have a certain appearance. The royal family doesn't want women who look average, so as not to affect the heirs.

Shaking his head, Chu Ran was speechless.

The girl looks good, but you can see the scheming just from the look in her eyes. Chu Ran didn't say that he was disgusted with the girl in front of him, but he didn't have a good impression either.

"A hundred taels of gold!"

The eunuch was naturally extremely shrewd, and when he saw Chu Ran's expression, he knew what to do, and said loudly.

Feng Yuru's face was obviously disappointed, but she didn't dare to say more. After saying thank you, he bowed and knelt down.

Next, several more girls were named one by one. They are all daughters of various officials, but it's a pity that they are either too ordinary, or they are too young, so that Chu Ran can't raise the slightest desire to possess.

"Wei Chishi, the daughter of Wei Ting, the head of the household, is fourteen years old."

Just when Chu Ran was a little bored, the eunuch Si Li said loudly again.

A young and beautiful young girl stood not far in front of Chu Ran, leaning over slightly and saluting.

"Wei Ting is an important minister of the country, and his daughter is also good-looking and generous." At this time, the Queen Mother on the side nodded and praised: "Your Majesty, I think this girl is good." ”

Wei Ting? Also surnamed Wei?

Hearing this name, Chu Ran's eyes rolled.

"What the Queen Mother said is extremely true." Sideways glanced at the Queen Mother Wei, who was sitting not far away, Chu Ran raised his eyebrows: "Give flowers!" ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Seeing this, Wei Chishi hurriedly knelt down and thanked him. There was a hint of pride in her eyes.

A total of 30 women participated in the draft today, and according to the regulations, only three were selected. Now that one person has been chosen, a sense of crisis rises in the hearts of the rest.

But even if they are not selected, the remaining women will be selected as palace maids. It's just that the identities of the palace maid and the emperor's wife are too different, which can be described as heaven and earth.

However, not all girls have the fate of Wei Chishi, perhaps because Chu Ran thinks they are too young, and they are not selected for several times a year.

"Recommended by Song Guangchen, the prefect of Hexi, Sheng Yulian, fourteen years old."

In addition to the daughters of those ministers who are at the right age under their knees, officials from all over the world can also recommend them. The woman in front of me is one of them.

glanced at the girl named Sheng Yulian, she looked really good, similar to the previous ones, and she was petite and moving.

It's just that Chu Ran has seen too many girls in one day, and no matter how beautiful a girl is standing in front of her, she won't feel too amazing.

However, when he looked at the girl in front of him, a strange feeling rose from his heart.
