Chapter 3: The Election of the Temple

"Thank you, Grandpa He."

Chunjiao took a look at the bronze mirror, and saw that the left half of her face was intact, and the right half of her face was covered with fragrant ash and even her eyes. If it is too late to wash completely.

picked up the eyebrow pencil on the table and dipped it in rouge gouache, and skillfully drew a peony The fragrant ash disappeared, and a delicate peony was embedded in the face.

He Gonggong clapped his hands.

"Spring Girl Wizard! Pretty. ”

"Grandpa He has won the award, so I have to do it as a last resort."

Chunjiao was shy, and a flush flashed across her face.

I saw that she took out the needle and thread in her sleeve, and carefully sewed the lotus flower she had just picked on the hole in her dress. It not only covers the holes, but also decorates the gauze garment. After finishing the retouching, he immediately rushed to the main hall for the draft. The stewards and eunuchs have begun to spread their names.

Zhilan, the daughter of Sal Shuo, the governor of Liangzhou, and Jin Ling'er, the daughter of Jin Yongchang, the governor of Cangzhou, .......

"Whoever reads the name, a group of five will line up to meet the emperor."

"Su Chunjiao, the daughter of Su Yiran in Beijing."

It just happened to be Chunjiao, and I was relieved to finally catch up.

Zhilan wondered if Chunjiao didn't splash incense ash and slip away? How did it come back again. I couldn't help but glance back. Su Chunjiao was scheming, and she thought that she would withdraw from the palace election. I didn't expect her to be even more beautiful than just now. angrily threw the handkerchief in his hand towards Chunjiao. Chunjiao waved her handkerchief and hit Zhilan in the face.

At this time, the time of Zhilan has arrived, and I will meet the emperor.

Today's emperor is twenty-seven or eighteen years old, and his appearance is dignified. Looks impatient.

"Queen, I still have important matters to hand over to you today."

"Your Majesty, the draft is the Empress Dowager's decree, and the concubines can't do it for you. There are not many show girls this time, there are a total of forty people, a total of eight groups, five groups have passed, and there are still three groups, and the emperor will definitely see the people who appreciate them. ”

The emperor looked at the queen helplessly and clicked on Zhilan.

"Zhilan, the daughter of Salshuo, met the emperor."

The emperor waved his hand and motioned for the others to stand back.

The emperor looked at Zhilan directly, Zhilan secretly wanted to show off in front of the emperor and deliberately twisted her willow waist, just a breath of air shuttled back and forth in her stomach, and accidentally collapsed with a thud. Although the sound was not loud, everyone heard it, and Zhilan was embarrassed. Shy hands covered his face.

Plop down on your knees.

"Your Majesty, Zhilan is guilty."

The chief eunuch Ha Desheng angrily reprimanded Zhilan.

"Bold, dare to offend the emperor, pull out the rod and punish forty."

"The emperor is around, Zhilan didn't mean it."

The emperor never heard anyone deflate in front of him, and that was because the ministers didn't dare to eat breakfast at all. Because he was afraid of trouble, Long Yan was furious. The older ministers were afraid that they would not be able to stand it, and each of them contained a piece of ginseng in their mouths.

Two eunuchs came to pull Zhilan. The emperor felt so funny that he almost didn't hold back, for the sake of a breath, it was a bit ridiculous to scold forty with a cane, and besides, he had to give Sal Shuo a face to guard the border and work hard. To say that it is a draft is actually to win people's hearts.

"It's just that the body is not easy for parents to control. Zhilanliu, the daughter of Salshuo. ”

The steward and eunuch responded.

"Yes."

Chunjiao's stewardship and eunuch beckoned to their row, so the five of them walked to the main hall and knelt down to the emperor and queen.

The emperor's eyes lit up when he saw Chunjiao, but he didn't look at her face, because he knelt on the ground and lowered his head.

"Get up!"

Everyone stood up. When the emperor saw Chunjiao's face. There was a peony flower on her face, and the peony reflected her even more charming. Looking at this outfit is interesting, otherworldly and different. Take a gasp.

"Beautiful!"

The emperor's palace approached Chunjiao.

"You're the most beautiful one I've ever seen, and you're famous."

If the emperor can go down to the palace in person to watch, he must be amazed, and this is also the first time that the emperor has visited.

"The daughter of Su Yiran, the governor of Beijing, Su Chunjiao came to see the emperor."

The emperor looked at Chunjiao.

"Su Yiran's daughter, I haven't heard that it will be so beautiful?"

Chunjiao's heart was shocked, could it be that the emperor found something? She remembered Lord Su's words, even if she died, she had to keep it a secret. Because if something happens to Master Su, the master will be implicated.

"The emperor has all the opportunities, so he naturally doesn't know a little girl."

The emperor was very close to Chunjiao, and the faint smell of fat powder made him intoxicated. There was a strange feeling. Chunjiao took the opportunity to throw an eyebrow, and the emperor became excited.

"The green is quiet and quiet, and the red clothes are shallow and deep."

Zi Yan responded.

"The heart of the flower is sorrowful, and the spring color is also knowing."

"Haha, you can talk to me."

The emperor nodded with satisfaction.
