Chapter 120: The Draft
Chapter 120 Draft
Zhu was distressed and just wanted to cry, as soon as the palace gate entered the deep sea, I don't know when I would see this sister again, she held Xiaoju's hand and swore ruthlessly: "Eighth sister, you should only go in to cultivate your mind, don't quarrel with others, my sister promises, when you are twenty years old, I will definitely take you out." ”
It's a pity that she made a lot of calculations, but she forgot to buy Zhao Zhi, the real master of the harem today, who can make a final decision.
At the beginning of the summer of the eighth year of Zong, on the second day of the first month, Xiaoju was dressed in a light pink folded sleeve long skirt, and slowly left home in the green wooden carriage unique to the palace.
After waiting for a long time, the aunt who was in charge came out and led them to rest, the two of them had a green house, and Xiaoju's silver gave the foot, although it was also a room for two people, but it was bigger than the others, the light was good, and the quilt was also new.
The aunt in charge also came to see her, and she didn't dare to look down on her in the slightest, and she was amiable, but she made the girl in the same room suspicious, and the show girl began to have rumors that the daughter of the family was selected this time.
Xiaoju was completely isolated, and no one called her when it was time to eat, just as the show girls were waiting to see the joke, they saw the head of the imperial dining room personally carrying a food box to deliver the meal.
An old face wrinkled a chrysanthemum, and smiled with him: "This is the queen's meal tonight, make one more for the girl to try." ”
The Queen's Meal?!
What kind of treatment is this, now that the four concubines in the harem are still empty, could it be said that the youngest daughter of the family is going to become one of the four concubines?
The show girls were uneasy, and they came to please her, Xiaoju was not shocked by the honor and disgrace, and those who came did not refuse, no matter who looked for her, in the end, they were ashamed of themselves and went away - the daughter of the family, she really has the style of being a concubine.
On the second day, the show girls wore the blue silk dress uniformly ordered in the palace, and the bun was also pulled into the same style, only a blue fine silk flower was pinned to the sideburns, all slim and youthful.
Five people in a row, take turns to enter the Qianning Palace for the emperor and queen to see.
The Empress Dowager sat on the main seat, the Empress Dowager accompanied her, and Zhao Zhi and Xu Qining sat down. The Empress Dowager and Zhao Zhi talked affectionately from time to time, the Empress Dowager and Xu Qining both smiled, occasionally one or two, the smiles of the two people looked the same, if it wasn't for one older and one young, I really thought it was a person.
Every time a group of show girls came in, Zhao Zhi quickly glanced at it, then turned his head uninterestedly, and coaxed his grandmother to be happy. However, the Empress Dowager was very interested, pointing at the show girls from time to time, asking the Empress Dowager and Xu Qining's opinions.
The beautiful appearance, dignified and generous show girl is the first choice, where the queen mother wants, immediately a palace maid stepped forward and picked the blue silk flower on the beautiful girl's hair, and the silk flower was embroidered with the name and life experience of the show girl.
If it was half an hour, he had already accumulated half a plate of silk flowers, and before he arrived at Xiaoju, Zhao Zhi's heart became impetuous, and he looked up frequently with some impatience.
Which of these three women who can become queens is not a seven-trick exquisite heart, seeing Zhao Zhi's appearance, he knew that among the show girls this time, he was afraid that there were other women, and he couldn't help but be a little curious, and looked out together.
Xiaoju's age in this show girl is on the younger side, she is half a head shorter than the few people around her, but she is more and more conspicuous, Zhao Zhi swept her at a glance, immediately breathed a sigh of relief, turned her head, raised the teacup and took a sip, her face was full of smiles, and she looked satisfied.
The Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager glanced at each other, and the Empress Dowager coughed and said, "You raise your heads." ”
The five girls slowly raised their heads, everyone knew that Ju was destined to be a concubine, therefore, those with poor complexion did not dare to be with her, and those with illustrious backgrounds avoided far away.
The Empress Dowager was very happy when she saw her generosity and asked, "Which family are you and how old are you this year?" ”
The corners of Xiaoju's lips raised slightly, and her smile was extremely subtle, but it would not make people feel rude, and she replied steadily: "The little girl is the eighth daughter of the family, and she is eleven years old this year. ”
The Empress Dowager looked at Xu Qining and asked, "If this palace is not mistaken, your younger brother is married to the daughter of the family, right?" ”
Xu Qining smiled elegantly: "The imperial grandmother has a really good memory, and my younger brother is married to the fourth daughter of the family. ”
The Empress Dowager nodded with satisfaction, and the palace maid on the side looked at her face and staggered forward, ready to fetch the silk flowers on Xiaoju's hair.
Zhao Zhi was still secretly snickering, the chick's voice was still as calm as water as always, seeing this, he was anxious for a while, and shouted: "She is so young, do you want me to be a nurse?!" ”
The hall was silent, Xiaoju lowered her eyes, let everyone look at her, and thought silently, she couldn't return her mouth if she was bitten by a dog, and she couldn't return it if she was bitten by a dog......
The Empress Dowager looked at the other four show girls suspiciously, and said in her heart, could it be that Sun likes someone else? Looking at it, Xiaoju still has a clear win.
Having said that, this Sun has been stubborn since he was a child, his preferences are different from ordinary people, and the queen who has been chosen by thousands of people has not seen him much favored, Xu Qining is dignified and virtuous, and has a beautiful appearance, and there are really no dozens of concubines in this harem.
That's it, the Queen Mother made a look, and simply left the silk flowers of the four show girls except Xiaoju.
The results of the primary election were announced, and the daughter of the family actually fell off the list, which means that she is destined to be only a palace maid.
The selected show girls are still two people in a green house, but the unsuccessful ones can only go to live in the chase shop. Xiaoju silently followed behind Aunt Chun, the female official in charge, and listened to her chatter: "If you don't choose a palace maid, you must move out of the green house, this is the rule in the palace, and ask the girl to be wronged for a few days, and after a few days, the errand will be divided." ”
The conditions of the bunk are naturally much worse, more than a dozen girls squeezed into a big bed, the bed is just a patchwork of wooden boards, Xiaoju glanced at it, and saw that there was a vacant seat in the corner, she went straight over, silently put down her burden, and immediately someone came over to take a stubble: "Are you also brushed off in the primary election?" Can you see the emperor? ”
Xiaoju looked at her a little strangely, nodded, and the girl's voice was very arrogant: "Ah, this sister has met the emperor." Hearing her shout, the girls in the house immediately hula-la-la, and asked:
"What does the emperor look like?"
"Isn't it very young and very handsome?"
"What about the Queen? The queen is a beauty? ”
Xiaoju was dizzy from the various aromas on their bodies, frowned slightly, and asked puzzledly, "Didn't you see the emperor?" ”
The girl with a loud voice said regretfully: "Hey, how dare you look up, keep staring at your toes." ”
A slender girl next to her added: "Yes, only those who are selected will be asked to look up and look at their appearance, we are all eliminated, so naturally we haven't seen the emperor." ”
Don't you see it? I was bitten by a dog and couldn't fight back, so I naturally had to kick it back.
Xiaoju smiled quietly and said seriously: "The Emperor Dragon Supreme, this appearance is naturally different from ordinary people. ”
The girls around her were all whetted, and they all listened with wide eyes. Xiao Ju said seriously: "The emperor is tall and strong, his face is as big as a millstone, his eyebrows are as thick as an arm, his mouth is like a tiger's mouth, and his cheeks are full ......of beards, and he is extremely powerful."
As she spoke, she gestured with her hand, and her arms didn't seem to be long enough, and she couldn't wait to pull them from the east side of the house to the west side of the house.
The girls let out a burst of exclamations, and they all sympathized with the show girls who wanted to share a bed with such a beast.
Outside the window, Zhao Zhi's face was blue and white, and Feng Shun on the side cautiously looked at the lord's uncertain face, and said in his heart, it was broken. Hurriedly shouted in his voice: "Miss Xiaoju, Miss Xiaoju, Aunt Chun called you to have something to order." ‘
Hearing this, Xiaoju nodded apologetically to the girls around her, went out of the room, and saw a long shadow dragging out of the candlelight reflected in the window, Zhao Zhi was dressed as a little eunuch, staring at her with a cold face, and asked, "Face like a millstone?" Eyebrows as thick as arms? A big mouth? ”
Every time she said a word, she took a step closer to her, Xiaoju didn't hear it, and saluted: "Thank you father-in-law for the message, the slave will go to Aunt Chun." Zhao Zhi was so angry that he stared at Xiaoju, snorted coldly, and walked away.
Back in the dormitory, Zhao Zhi punched and kicked, and everything in the dormitory that could be smashed by him was smashed to pieces, and he was extremely angry: "Gonggong Feng, you say, am I so ugly in her eyes?" I'm angry, I'm angry......"
After a while, he was panting like a cow, still hating himself, and said cruelly: "Call someone to spread the word and assign her to the night bedtime division." ”
Feng complied, and his heart was bitter, and when this ancestor regretted it, it was not our messenger who suffered.
The next morning, Aunt Chun personally came to announce that Xiaoju had been assigned to the night bedding division, but it was a place dedicated to washing toilets, and as soon as the etiquette training was over, she would go to work.
When the girls in the same room heard this, they talked about it in private, could it be that Aunt Chun called her out yesterday for this matter? Aunt Chun couldn't blackmail, so she transferred people to the night bedtime division?
For a while, there was a lot of rumors, and everyone was in danger, but the number of visitors to Aunt Chun's place increased a lot, and she made a lot of money. A few days later, a show girl finally said that she had left her mouth, and Aunt Chun knew what had happened.
She didn't come to ask Xiaoju, and asked the show girls in that room, but found nothing, secretly wondering, who would pretend to be her? .
