And this time, the "evenness method" of the draft was only finalized at the end of the year, and even the Ministry of Rites did not send a document, so the well-informed Meng Xuan, Chang Nuo, and even Jinyiwei all knew nothing, and only the insiders of the East Palace who were in charge of the Ministry of Rites roughly understood the details of this matter.

After all, it's none of your business, if your official position is too small and the portal is too low, then you won't have anything to do with the draft girl, and you won't care about it. And Meng Xuan never worried about such problems, because the Meng family had no concubines, and the three concubines also got the amnesty for exemption from election through various joints in the morning, and the two older ones were married. In Meng Xuan's considerations, He Angelica can't compete with the draft, so he never cares about the triennial hot draft.

And Peng gradually didn't care about the draft, because the Peng family didn't have a daughter, and the Peng family was too low, and the daughter who came out was only a small jasper, so the Peng family reported in the Ministry of Rites, and every time the draft girl was selected, he directly skipped the Peng family's quota, in other words, the draft has nothing to do with the Peng family.

Coincidentally, this time, the official of the East Palace who handled the draft of the Ministry of Rites was Peng Jian himself, and at first he casually copied and wrote, occasionally drinking two sips of tea. Later, he noticed that there was a "Yangzhou" in the key area of the draft, and he looked at it twice, and sure enough, it was "Yangzhou", with two Qingjun Xiaokai written in black and white!

When I saw "Yangzhou", I thought of Luofu, and when I thought of Luofu, I thought of the third sister He Angelica, so Peng gradually looked through the detailed rules and regulations, and compared the number of places in Luodong Mansion, which was three. Except for the eldest lady Luo Baiying, who has not even been sent to the election, there are exactly three young ladies of the right age in Luofu, but! That's including the third sister He Angelica!

Peng gradually felt a little anxious in his heart, but after thinking about it again, the third sister is not surnamed Luo, but also a legal concubine, even in the capital He Mansion, the draft may not be her turn. In the conventional rules, ninety percent of the drafts sent are daughters, or concubines are sent to the name of their mothers, and after training, they are sent to the election as concubines. In most cases, if there is no concubine in the family, the concubine will be selected from relatives of the same clan, and the concubine of the family will not be sent to the election. In the past ten years of the Ming Dynasty, the difference between the descendants and the concubines is so obvious, and the daughters born to the same father are still different.

Thinking about it this way, Peng gradually felt more relieved, and felt that the third sister would definitely not be able to afford the three places in Luodong Mansion, but what he didn't know was the lineage of the Luo family, and those who were slightly related to each other had no school-age concubines, and the Wufang people on the side of Luo Shuisheng, who were closest to him, also had a total of five places to solve, so naturally there was no need for the three places in Luodong Mansion - in the face of such a pile of rules, He Angelica got a "precious" draft place, and the draft date was set for February. It is all handled by the prefect, the prefect and the county officials, and when they draw up the specific process, the layers of screening begin.

However, just in case, and in order to let He Angelica have a psychological preparation in advance, after Peng gradually discovered this, he immediately caught up with his brother Peng Shi, who was about to go to Yangzhou on business, and he conveyed the news to He Angelica, so that the smart third sister could move.

After Peng Shi came to Yangzhou, he first went to Luoxi Mansion to mourn once, and then immediately came to Luodong Mansion, even the old lady did not go to visit the Taoyao Courtyard to worship the old age, who knew that He Angelica closed the door in the daytime, let him eat a closed door, and was not happy, so he swallowed back the news that had rolled to the side of his tongue, and made up his mind to use this as a bait, and hang He Angelica's appetite. If his brother Peng gradually knew, he would have to be in a hurry, how could he joke about this, this is a major event related to people's lives. Although normally, she may not be able to get the third sister's turn, she should have known that a moment is a moment.

Don't say it's Peng Yan, even He Angelica herself, she didn't expect that she still had such a big hurdle to over, just because of the inertia of the previous life, what she didn't experience in the previous life, and she didn't pay much attention to it in this life. Draft or something, so she can only think of the joke of Luo Baiqiong's failure in the previous life, and just laugh and pass. But in the thirty-first year of Hongwu in the previous life, there had never been an outbreak of the epidemic in the north, so according to the original national election, there would be no quota in Luofu, so the draft became a relatively distant dream for the Luo family.

And in this world, there was a sudden epidemic, and several noble children, including the emperor's eldest grandson Zhu Yunwen, were vacant with a few concubines and concubines, and under the chain effect, it became a small-scale and large-scale admission, and at least 100 women should be selected. This time, it's really eclectic to reduce talents, and even the rules of "concubines stop" have been removed, as long as the family has a quota, as long as the age is between twelve and twenty-one years old, as long as it is a young lady, then you can take the number plate and go through the motions.

For a chubby girl like Liao Qing'er, it's really just a formality, but not for He Angelica.

Everyone has a number plate, there is no door identity on the face of the indication, the real draft occasion, the only pass is the face of the body, the most effective way to go down, is not to go through the back door to buy the selection officer, but to dress the show girl in a radiant way, go to the back door of the people, if the goods are too second, it is impossible to send them to the capital, to participate in the follow-up primary, re-election and plum selection.

He Angelica is fourteen years old this year, his body is slender, and he was thin due to malnutrition in his previous life, and he is as thin as a paper flower; In this life, he is thin because of practicing martial arts every night, and he is extremely thin. The worst thing is that she spent a whole year in a dream in a ghostly floater state, and after that dream, something strange happened, not only her height was the same as in the dream, she was raised to the appearance of fifteen or sixteen years old, and even her breasts grew to the fullness that only after marriage. These were unexpected gains for her, but this time, they turned into unexpected troubles.

Knowing that such a thing happened, He Angelica would not have chosen to restore her original appearance under the Yingying powder so early, after three years of maintenance of the Yingying powder, as well as the moisturization of the Zhuyan soup that she had rubbed hard from Bai Yangbai, coupled with the moisturization of the medicinal bath hot spring for three years, her appearance has exceeded the most beautiful years in her previous life, after all, her heart is not hindered, and the spirit of the whole person is also very different. The essence is reflected between the eyebrows, so that her face has more confidence and peace of mind, can always give the people around her a sense of peace of mind and trust, plus a pair of clear and bright autumn water phoenix eyes, people like autumn words, she is not careful, she became the crane in the flock.

Before she removed the powder on her face and hands, she was already a standout existence, but now her true colors are even more different. Fortunately, at present, her most true beauty has only been shown to Meng Xuan alone, and then she has seen cicada clothes and pomegranates twice, He Angelica also sent pomegranates back to the old lady, saying that she had changed back to her former white complexion after peeling. The rest of the time she was veiled and wore ugly makeup, and so far, no one had seen the beauty she had carefully watered for three years.

The reason why she chose to restore her true appearance at this time was because she thought that Sun Meiniang was about to fall, the most unpleasant person in the family was gone, and the bullying of other cats and dogs was not enough, she could even win the position of the agent in charge of the old lady to find next, why not wipe off the dust that has been covered on the beautiful jade and have a universal celebration? By the way, Luo Baiqiong and Luo Baishao, who were already very "envious, jealous and hateful", thought of their unbelievable eyes, and a kind of happiness spread in their hearts.

This is the original intention of He Angelica to appear in front of the old lady and the pomegranate with his true appearance a few days ago, and wanted to use her mouth to give the old lady and others a preventive injection first, so as not to be frightened when they saw a living example. However, if Angelica knew about the draft, she would definitely regret it, and she should not wash off the powder at this time, but should draw herself uglier and show it to more people as much as possible.

Because in the drafts of previous years, there were many young ladies who resisted and deliberately pretended to be ugly, or pretended to be sick, so the draft rules added a special attachment, for those women who were suspected of pretending to be ugly and pretending to be sick to make themselves lose the election, the crime is the same as the woman who escaped the election directly, once exposed and tested, the highest punishment is to cut off the head of the woman's father. It's that the daughter didn't discipline her well, in line with the ancient example of "raising or not teaching, the father's fault", the young lady herself doesn't have to lose her head, because women are brainless accessories, and it is naturally her parents who take responsibility for such behavior.

With such rules, then the disguise master He Angelica didn't dare to try it easily, because she went to Chengxu to study every day, and she showed up many times, and there were too many young ladies and sons who were impressed by her appearance, and there were many people who had a dislike for her, and any of them made a complaint, which one of them was enough for her to drink a pot. Moreover, she was selected by the Luo family as her own daughter, and it has nothing to do with the He family in the capital, so she really wants to go to the step of being exposed and beheaded, and it is estimated that the head of Luo Chuanbai, the nominal patriarch, is the head.

Therefore, He Angelica still doesn't know that she is about to appear in her true colors and go to the draft for a while, as for how far she can go and where she goes, it will be a few days that no one can expect. And the news brought by Peng Shi is actually a very valuable piece of news for her, that is, to spend two thousand taels of silver to buy it, if it is Meng Xuan's money, He Angelica will definitely buy this "internal" information without hesitation.

That's right, the etiquette of the draft has not yet been issued, so this is just an "internal" decision, before the text arrives in Yangzhou, those who originally did not have to participate in the draft girl, but after the release of the article, they have become a young lady who is a pre-show girl, like He Angelica, people can still marry freely.

The time difference in the middle is about fifteen to twenty days, in this precious period of time, if Meng Xuan quickly finalizes this family affair, makes a set ceremony, dowry, bride price, exchanges marriage letters, public posts, and sets a specific marriage date, then even if he does not marry He Angelica immediately, He Angelica can be regarded as the daughter-in-law of the Meng family, and the matter of running for election will naturally be excluded. If He Angelica or Meng Xuan learned about this now, they would definitely think of this method at the same time for the first time, and the two of them would have contributed to this matter with joy, and they might still have time to be rich.

But now that Peng Shi was delayed like this, it was just a small quarrel, He Angelica missed the first time to know that she was going to the draft girl, and I don't know that the next time the young master Peng Shi is willing to take the initiative to come will be a few days later.

If in the past few days, He Angelica took off her veil in public, revealing her true appearance after washing off the powder, then once she can't get married before the release of the draft line, she will have to use such an excellent appearance to run for the draft girl, and even be selected to the Beijing Division, and continue the later selection and distribution - to be the concubine of the old son of heaven, the concubine and concubine of the royal family, the wife and concubine of the official, or the female official and the palace maid, and a very small part of it may be to return home.

Such a potential crisis was an event she did not expect, after all, when she saw Meng Xuan from the future, the future thing he said was that He Angelica married him as a concubine and married into the Meng family, and there was no mention of the draft. He Angelica subconsciously probably thought that if there were any great dangers or ups and downs in the next three years, then her husband Meng Xuan, who loved her so much, would of course tell her word for word. Since he didn't say anything, it proves that the next three years of her life will be a smooth road, and there is nothing to worry about.

It's just that what she doesn't understand is that because she learned about what she shouldn't have known three years later, she suddenly changed her attitude towards Meng Xuan now, in the "original" storyline, Meng Xuan, who was not injured, came to her, and she didn't leave Meng Xuan in the boudoir to treat her injuries, Peng Shi would arrive as scheduled and inform her of the matter, and she used Bai Yangbai, who was living in Luofu, to propose relatives under the pseudonym Baiyang, and resolved this crisis.

And now the chain effect is because her handling is very different from the "original" part, and she may really have a dangerous road to go!
