Remember [Pen โ Fun รท Pavilion in one second.], wonderful free reading without pop-ups!
As soon as they entered the palace, all the women who participated in the selection of concubines were arranged into Yunxiu Palace.
It is said that Yunxiu Palace is the place where the women who choose concubines live, but Emperor Yunlou has never been close to women, this place has been abandoned for many years, and now so many people suddenly come in, which suddenly makes this bleak place lively.
As soon as the women entered the Yunxiu Palace, they looked around with novelty just like Grandma Liu entered the Grand View Garden, thinking that they were about to see the Emperor of Yunlou, and they all showed their flushes with excitement, which was actually a little more delicate than the flowers in the garden.
"The draft will start tomorrow, I'm so nervous, I don't know if I can see Emperor Yunlou. In the crowd, there were already women shouting excitedly, which quickly resonated with everyone.
"Yes, as long as I can look at the emperor from afar in my life, I will be satisfied. Another woman sighed wistfully.
Si Huiyun, who was standing not far away, snorted disdainfully when she heard this, "It's really useless, I'll be satisfied at a glance." โ
When the sighing woman heard this, she glanced at her sideways, and saw that Si Huiyun's appearance and temperament were not very outstanding, so she sarcastically said unconvinced, "Ouch, listening to your tone, it seems that it is inevitable for the imperial concubine, tsk, and don't look in the mirror, even your appearance dares to covet our emperor, it is really shameless." โ
"You-hmph, even if I can't be the imperial concubine, my sister is an alchemist in the middle of the Danwang period, and both appearance and strength are incomparable to you rouge vulgar fans, so my sister is the best choice for the imperial concubine. Si Huiyun was so angry that she couldn't compare with others, so she could only find some face by pointing to Si Luoxun beside her.
When the surrounding women heard the middle of King Dan, they also looked at Si Luoxun in surprise, and had to admit that this woman was outstanding not only in appearance, but also in temperament, and she was indeed a woman with a few chances of winning.
It's just that women's jealousy is at odds, even if Si Luoxun looks and has good strength, they can always find faults.
One of the women in red spoke out contemptuously sarcastically, "Cut, there are many good-looking people, and there are many people who know how to do alchemy, what are you dragging." I heard that the topic of this concubine selection contest has no alchemy at all, and I think you are blind kung fu. โ
As soon as these words came out, it was like a thunderbolt in the sky, and it hit Si Luoxun's head at once, and the smug smile on the corner of his lips suddenly froze, and his face suddenly turned pale, "What did you say?
The woman in red saw Si Luoxun's shocked look, and immediately covered her mouth and chuckled, "Haha, it seems that you don't know, my father inquired last night that this concubine selection competition is extraordinary, and there are no ordinary talent shows, spiritual power competitions, and alchemy competitions, so I'm going to disappoint you this time, hahahaโโ"
As soon as the woman's voice fell, the onlookers all lowered their heads and chuckled, and they were very happy to see Si Luoxun's expression of eating dog food.
Si Huiyun heard the ridicule around her, her pretty face darkened, and she shouted angrily, "You don't want to bewitch the people here, if it is not compared to spiritual power, it is not compared to alchemy, then what is it compared to! Is it uglier and weakest than anyone else? If that's the case, you don't need to compare, you must be the first!"
Si Huiyun's mouth was not bad, and the woman in red gritted her teeth when she opened her mouth, "You slut, you dare to humiliate me, see if I don't teach you a lesson." โ
Judging from the way the woman in red spoke and looked at her, she knew that she was the daughter of a big family, and now that someone dared to challenge her authority, she naturally had no reason to compromise.
As he spoke, he was going to pounce and scuffle with Si Huiyun.
However, just when everyone was in a mess, a loud roar suddenly came from the front.
"Presumptuous, this is Yunxiu Palace, is this a place for you to mess around!" The roar was like thunder, and the woman in red was suddenly frightened.
At this time, the women of the whole courtyard only saw three old women wearing palace clothes walking out of the palace of Yunxiu Palace, although they were old, but the majesty of that face should not be underestimated, and the women were instantly frightened.
The old lady who looked the oldest, wearing a brown long dress, glared sharply in the direction of Si Huiyun, with a straight face, and snorted angrily, "This is the palace, not on the street, if you want to make noise, get out as soon as possible, our Yunlou Emperor doesn't look down on shrews." โ
As soon as Mama's words came out, everyone was so frightened that they didn't dare to look up, and as for Si Huiyun and the woman in red, they were even more shocked and broke out in a cold sweat and trembled.
Seeing that it had a deterrent effect, the old lady nodded with satisfaction and reopened her mouth to announce, "This concubine selection contest is divided into three rounds in total, and your appearance, intelligence and courage will be tested respectively. Those who pass all three rounds of competitions will be able to become the imperial concubine of our Yunlou Dark Domain, during this period, you will live in Yunxiu Palace, you are not allowed to go out, once someone violates the regulations, you will be automatically disqualified from choosing a concubine, do you understand?"
The old lady's loud and majestic voice echoed throughout the courtyard, and the women all responded respectfully, "Understood." โ
The old lady bowed slightly, glanced at the women, and kindly reminded, "Tomorrow morning, the first round of competition will be held, and the eldest princess will also be present at that time, so the girls should behave well and leave a good impression on the eldest princess." โ
Hearing the eldest princess, the women's faces were surprised, and they whispered excitedly, "My God, the eldest princess will also come, she is the most respected person of the Yunlou Emperor." โ
"Isn't it, I heard that Emperor Yunlou's parents died early, and they all grew up with their sister and brother, so they naturally have a close relationship with the eldest princess. โ
"Hearing you say that, I'm suddenly so worried, what if I can't pass the level of the eldest princess. โ
"Yes, I'm also worried, I heard that this eldest princess is quite strong, some time ago the Yunlou Emperor disappeared for no reason, and it was all thanks to her sending troops to fight two battles to quell the external strife, so that the City of Burning Blood and the Fenglin Empire did not dare to attack, such a strong woman is only afraid of high vision." โ
Su Moliang heard the women around him chattering about the eldest princess, and his heart also swelled with some surprise.
She hadn't heard Jun Haocang mention his relatives before, and now it seems that he has a very close relationship with this eldest princess.
It seems that if you want to be with Jun Haocang, you have to pass the eldest princess first.
Su Moliang was thinking about it, and the old grandmother turned around and left Yunxiu Palace, leaving the two slightly younger grandmothers to arrange a room for everyone.
But as soon as Su Moliang was about to enter the designated room, he was blocked by the arrogant woman in red just now.
"I want to live here!" the woman in red didn't discuss it at all, and announced the result directly.
Su Moliang raised his eyes and glanced at her, his pupils flashed coldly, "This room was arranged for me by my grandmother." โ
Su Moliang had been very low-key just now, so the woman in red didn't notice her appearance, but now when she looked closely, her arrogant expression suddenly froze, and her eyes flashed with amazement.
