Suddenly, we noticed a man in bright costume waving to us in the distance by a guard. His movements seemed to be in a hurry, as if he had something urgent to tell us.

Yat and I exchanged glances, filled with curiosity and alertness. We quickly walked over to the guard, who, seeing us approaching, hurried up to us with a hint of anxiety on his face.

"What's the matter?" I asked eagerly.

The guard panted and said, "Miss Yao'er, I just received the news that the queen sent someone to inform the palace maids in the Imperial Garden that the time of the draft has been advanced, and it will start next week!" “

Xiao Yat and I exchanged glances, and the surprise was palpable. There must be some conspiracy behind the fact that the queen changed the timing of the draft so quickly.

"Thank you for telling us that you can leave. We will be careful to deal with this unexpected situation. "I thanked the guard and motioned for him to leave.

Xiao Yi held my hand tightly, and his face was full of determination.

"Yao'er, we must hurry up and get ready. The draft is ahead of schedule, and we can't afford to be bogged down by the Queen's plans and make the best response within this tight deadline. He said in a resolute tone.

I feel inexplicable, am I very familiar with your Xiao guard

I was a little confused and didn't think that my relationship with Siu Yat was familiar, but I decided to continue with the situation in front of me. I let go of Xiao Yi's hand, and he looked at me, then silently turned away.

I felt a little lost in my heart. The draft is very important for me and I need to focus on this situation.

I went to Mei Wan'er's residence alone and informed her about the early draft. Mei Wan'er frowned after listening to my story.

"Fortunately, the process and content of the draft are the same as in previous years, and they have been almost prepared.

Just now, the queen, the announcement was also issued! ”

Mei Wan'er and I hurried to the Internal Affairs Office, our hearts filled with a sense of urgency. We quickly walked through the corridors of the palace and came to the gate of the Interior Office.

In front of the door stood several officials of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, who were responsible for receiving and managing the affairs of the court. I stepped forward and bowed slightly to them.

"Excuse me, is the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs here? I'm Chu Yao, and I want to know about the draft. “

An official smiled and said politely: "Miss Chu Yao, the person in charge of the Internal Affairs Office is called Liu Zhengning, and he is now working in the Internal Affairs Office. I'll just let you know, and I ask you to wait a moment. “

We waited in front of the door for a while, and soon after, a middle-aged man hurriedly walked out of the internal affairs office, it was Liu Zhengning.

"Miss Chu Yao, is there something wrong?" He asked, smiling.

I saluted him and said, "Director Liu, I'm here to learn about the draft." The draft is early, and I wonder how many show girls are registered now, and if there is still a chance to participate in the draft. “

Liu Zhengning thought for a moment, then took out a booklet and browsed the records in it.

"According to the records of the register, there are currently 320 show girls registered to participate in the draft, and the quota is only about 100. However, the initial screening for the draft has not yet begun. ”

I asked again: "Manager Liu, I heard that there is a Li Xueer..."

Liu Zhengning frowned slightly, thought for a moment and replied: "Li Xue'er is the daughter of Cabinet Minister Hongye, and she is known as the first talented woman in Jindong. ”

Hearing this answer, I felt a little uneasy inside. Although Li Xueer's reputation is very loud, it is accompanied by some not-so-glorious rumors. She is said to be known for her cunning and poisonous tongue, often using her ingenuity to harm others. She had caused a lot of strife and controversy in the court.

"Is there a one called "Silver Cloud"?"

"Yinyun, a woman from a remote county, was arranged by the empress to be a member of the court. She has an outstanding look, and she is so beautiful that it is hard to ignore. However, she did not live freely, but a pawn in the hands of the queen.

Yinyun's family background is not prominent, her father is an ordinary county magistrate, and his family is poor. Small door, small household. There are too many such show girls every year! ”

Director Liu, as he spoke, unfolded a portrait of the woman inside

Her long black hair fell gently on her slender jade neck. There was a hint of indifference between her eyebrows.

Her eyes are clear and bright, like a deep pool, containing elusive wisdom and ulterior purpose. There was a hint of playfulness in her eyes, making it difficult to grasp what she really thought.

Her face was like ice and snow, white and flawless, as delicate as a pear blossom in spring. Her face is delicate and three-dimensional, and her red lips are slightly open, as if telling a secret hidden in her heart.

She was dressed in a gorgeous robe, flowing and light as a cloud. Her demeanor is elegant and bewitching, and every movement is full of seductive charm that makes people involuntarily attracted to her.

Overall, the portrait of Silver Cloud exudes a mysterious and dangerous beauty. Her appearance and temperament reveal an unusual charm.

I was immersed in the portrait of Yinyun, and then turned to Director Liu, "Director Liu, have you seen Yinyun?" Her beauty is truly stunning! Her long jet-black hair, clear and bright eyes, and her face like ice and snow! Her demeanor is elegant and charming, and every movement exudes a mysterious charm that makes people admire. ”

My tone was full of admiration and envy, trying to show Director Liu's attention and appreciation for Yinyun.

Manager Liu is already an old man in the palace, and he instantly understood what I meant.

"Miss Yinyun, what a blessing!"

Take care of the affairs of the Internal Affairs Office, and I plan to meet this Yinyun girl.

"In two days, it will be the day when the show girl enters the palace for the draft, and then the Yinyun girl should also enter the palace",

Mei Wan'er seemed to see through my thoughts.

Yes, I will enter the palace in two days.

It's also time for me to visit our Commander Xiao and test the foundation of this Autumn Moon Blade in this harem.

I strolled forward, and before I knew it, I had come to the Xuan Xie Pavilion.

I saw Xiao Yat sitting in a corner of the Pavilion and reading a book intently. His brow furrowed slightly, clearly interested in the contents of the book. The sun shone on him through the pavilion window, and the soft light seemed to add a mysterious aura to him.

I don't know when, Wan'er was called away by the maid next to the queen and went to deal with things

I approached Yat and tapped lightly on the wicker chair next to him, signaling for him to notice my arrival. He looked up, a twinkle of surprise in his eyes, and smiled and invited me to sit down. It seems to be waiting for me here.

I sat quietly next to him, and we exchanged smiles and glances with each other, enjoying the moment of tranquility in tacit understanding. The Pavilion became our shared habitat, allowing us to put aside our worries and distractions for a while and focus on this unique and quiet space.
