Chapter 254: Draft (3)
According to the rules of the ancestors, every three years, after layers of selection, unmarried women with both talents and appearances are selected into the palace to enrich the backyard. It's just that Qing Cang has been on the throne for eight years, and this is just the second draft.
So...... It is not difficult to see that the eyebrows of the people below are dancing and overflowing with hope. Maybe in their eyes, Qing Cang is the emperor who sits on the world, and he is the best man they recognize in their hearts, right? But what's the use? In the past, many days of waiting and anticipation were just a sentence of "retention" or "branding" by the monarch. And now, they can't even see Qingcang's face.
"Jin Shanmin, the daughter of Jin Xiong, the Shangshu of the Yipin Rite Department, is six out of ten." The eunuch beside him shouted sharply.
At this time, I saw a woman walking from among the many women, and came forward to salute and said, "The courtier Jin Shanmin meets the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother is a thousand years old, a thousand years old." Meet all the ladies and sisters and mothers. ”
Her voice was very weak, and it sounded like a desire to protect herself. It's just that she bends her waist with a slight step, but she doesn't lose everyone's beautiful demeanor.
A turquoise dress is particularly eye-catching among the many yellow, orange, purple and red. The hairpin made of jasper slanted into the bun on her head complements her green clothes. The face is delicate and delicate, and the smile touches the soul.
"Have you ever read any books?" The Queen Mother asked slowly, as if she didn't like this Jin Shanmin very much. But I know that this Jin family is going to be recruited into the palace anyway. Scold...... Her father is a book from the Ministry of Rites.
"Back to the Queen Mother, the courtiers are ignorant, and they have only read the "Daughter Sutra". She replied with a prostration.
The Queen Mother didn't speak, but turned her head to look at me, as if waiting for my ruling.
I took a deep breath and pretended to be generous and virtuous, "Not bad...... After all, she is a woman, and it is indeed not easy to read some books that guard women's ways, and I think the emperor will like it, so keep it. ”
As soon as the words fell, I subconsciously looked in the direction of the Queen Mother. I saw a smile on her lips and nodded at me.
When Jin Shanmin heard this, he was overjoyed and shouted, "Courtiers Xie Empress Dowager Niangniang, Emperor Xie Guifei Niangniang." ”
"Lin Xuehui, the daughter of Lin Quan, the son of the Sanpin Taifu Temple, is seven out of ten."
The eunuch's voice fell, and a girl came out of the crowd.
The girl wore a beige gauze dress, as if she were in a fog of smoke. She has extremely smooth and beautiful black hair, and her face is beautiful and vulgar, but there is a layer of blood missing from her skin, and she looks very pale, "The courtier Lin Xuehui has seen all the masters and mothers, and the ladies are blessed." ”
The Queen Mother frowned slightly, "Looking at this face, I don't look like a blessed person, let alone extend the heirs to the emperor." ”
I know what the Queen Mother means, although this Lin Xuehui is beautiful and vulgar, her face is too pale, as if she has a stubborn illness, "but...... This servant is in charge of the emperor's chariots and horses, and is also in charge of the country's horse administration. Although it is not an important position, it is also a three-pin product. In the future, when the emperor travels or the queen mother travels, the safety of this carriage and horse has to be considered. ”
In response to my suggestion, the Queen Mother finally nodded and said no more.
"Women's three slaves, which three slaves?" Concubine Hua saw what the Queen Mother meant, so she squinted and asked.
"Back to the mother, the three slaves of the woman are unmarried from the father, married from the husband, and the husband from the son."
"It's also a sensible one, so keep it." The Queen Mother said.
