At night, the moon and stars are scarce.

The palace, which has a few concubines, is especially quiet.

The palace where the emperor handles government affairs is still lit, and the young emperor is talking to the national teacher.

On the table are two portraits of show girls, one is Gu Ming, and the other is her friend Yan Bingqi.

The emperor said: "National teacher, according to your instructions, what you found are these two girls, one is from a merchant and the other is from an official family, which one will it be?"

The national teacher glanced at the portrait and smiled, "What does Your Majesty think?"

"I?"

The Emperor snorted softly, "What I think is useful? Isn't everything predestined?"

The national teacher sighed silently and shook his head, "Your Majesty, there is no 'fate' in this world, and the first queen is just not suitable for this position." ”

“......”

The emperor was silent.

The national teacher looked at the emperor with wise eyes and said: "No one is destined to do anything, such as Your Majesty, although you are already the crown prince, but if you make a mistake, can you still sit on this supreme position? Your brothers are all worse than you? If they change their strategy, can you still sit on this supreme position?"

"Your Majesty, everything is unknown until you ascend the throne. So you see, even if you are the crown prince, are you destined to be this emperor?"

The national teacher persuaded earnestly: "No, your throne is the result of many wrestling, and this multi-faceted is tangible and intangible. ”

After a long time, the emperor sighed, "I know. I am convinced. ”

The national teacher looked at the portrait on the table again, "Actually, who is it, Your Majesty already knows it in your heart, isn't it?"

The Emperor's gaze turned to a portrait and was silent again.

The national teacher was unimpressed, and continued: "But, is she destined to be the queen? No, everything depends on Your Majesty's decision, and whoever you choose, that is. ”

"Heh......"

The emperor chuckled, but he didn't smile, "Won't there be another early death?"

The national teacher took a sip of tea, "Your Majesty, there are many unsuitable results, and the heaviest one is the one." The minister said, everything depends on Your Majesty's decision, what kind of life you want, then what kind of person you choose. ”

The young emperor let out a long sigh, "I know. It's not early, let's go back and rest. ”

A few days later, it was the day when the show girls entered the palace.

This time I entered the palace, mainly to let the show girls learn etiquette, and after they finish learning, they can see your majesty, and that is when the draft really begins.

Before leaving, Gu Ming found Ruoling and asked, "Can you give me some advice?"

Ruo Ling thought for a moment, gathered his aura in his eyes, and then looked at Gu Ming. Sure enough, she saw the golden qi, which had not yet taken shape, but it was already certain that Gu Ming would definitely be chosen.

After taking a closer look at this eldest lady, she is sixteen years old, and compared with a few years ago, the kind of steady and dignified temperament on her body is more prominent, and she has a quiet bookish atmosphere.

Ruo Ling believes that if Gu Ming has a certain ability, even if he is born in a merchant, he will definitely fight his own way in the harem.

And this ability ......

Ruoling pondered for a moment.

"First, don't be tempted by the emperor. ”

The emperor is destined to have many women, and the king's heart is unpredictable, and the heart is injured.

"Second, don't take the emperor for a fool. ”

The fact that the emperor in his teenage years was able to withstand the pressure of the government and the opposition, observe the festival for the first queen, and delay the draft until this time after the festival, which is enough to show that he has a strong skill.

"Third, try not to have the intention of harming others, but you must have the heart of guarding against others. ”

The battle in the harem is inevitable, all kinds of conspiracies and tricks, only for the emperor alone, Ruo Ling doesn't want Gu Ming to become the kind of person who is full of calculations and has blood on his hands.

The clever Gu Ming understood the intention behind these suggestions, she smiled happily, hugged Ruoling, and solemnly promised: "I wrote it down." ”

This time when he entered the palace, Gu Ming only brought one Qiu Tong. Originally, she still had a lot of silver tickets and gold beans and silver beans to bring, which was used to enter the palace, but if she had Ruoling, she only brought an appropriate amount of gold beans, after all, bringing too many was too eye-catching.

Gu Ming entered the palace and left, and the eldest lady bought a house in the capital on the back foot, which was for Ruoling.

After taking cover, Ruoling took Zhuyue and them to move in. It's a pity that the bamboo forest can't be moved, but fortunately, the bamboo shoots that gave birth to Zhuyue can be taken away, and fortunately, the new house also has a bamboo forest, although the area is much smaller.

After Ruoling settled down, she entered the palace, Gu Ming first entered the palace, although she had already let Heidou's subordinates secretly take care of it, but she had to see it with her own eyes to rest assured.

In today's harem, there is only one noble person who has been given sterilization soup, but since the first queen went, the emperor has neither turned over her brand nor stepped into her bedroom, so it can be regarded as being beaten into the cold palace in disguise.

That is to say, the current emperor does not have a woman, so there are more show girls this time, there are thirty.

In this, there are all kinds of backgrounds, even from peasant families, but in general, it is still Gu Ming's background that is the lowest.

Shinong Industry and Commerce.

Even if the founding empress has greatly improved the status of a businessman, even if Gu Ming's father is a man and a teacher, after all, the ancient mansion is not separated, and the title of merchant is still hung.

Of course, Gu Ming, who was from the lowest background, was excluded and suppressed by the daughter from a noble family.

However, under Ruoling's cold eyes, Gu Ming handled it very well.

Ruo Ling knows in her heart, it seems that the eldest lady has raised Gu Ming very well, and this eldest lady does not lack the ability to fight for a position in the harem.

With nothing to do, Ruoling wandered among the show girls, and gradually, she heard something.

Among the show girls in this year, there are two popular candidates for the queen, these two people, not only have the highest background, but also have excellent character, they are excluded and suppressed, and it is estimated that people disdain to do it.

If there is any shortcoming, it is arrogance.

However, given their origins, it is also a matter of course to be arrogant.

However, this is not the real reason why Ruoling is concerned about these two people.

These two people, one of them quit their marriage for this draft and waited for nearly two years, and the other is the sibling sister of the former queen, and her appearance and temperament are very similar to the former queen.

That's interesting.

It can be seen from the words that the one who quit the marriage really liked the emperor, because he had the opportunity, regardless of the dissuasion of his family, he insisted on quitting the marriage and insisting on entering the palace.

And the sister of the former empress was not only sent in by the family, but also longed for the emperor's deep love for his sister.

So, so you can become a queen?

Ruo Ling didn't see it that way, thinking of the previous two inexplicable and unbelievable feelings, she always had a hunch that the queen's position was waiting for Gu Ming.

A month after entering the palace, the draft officially began.
