Chapter 363
Last time, Tong Yunfei asked Lingyu and said, "You are already a first-class member, why do you still want to take the test for that little martial artist." Lingyu smiled: "Do you all want to know?" Everyone said that they wanted to know, and Lingyu smiled: "The main thing is to prove yourself." Liu Qingyang said: "Brother Zhang, you are a first-class member at such a young age, how can you prove yourself." Lingyu said: "Although I am a first-class member now, those ministers are very unconvinced, thinking that I relied on some martial arts, a little cleverness and some luck to bring down Li Ge Lao." Let me tell you! Not only did I take the martial arts exam, but I also took the literary exam. ”
Ma Junlan said with a smile: "Big brother, it turns out that the last time you said that the field was fake, you secretly went to take the exam, why do you want to be full of us?" Lingyu said: "I changed my name to take the exam, of course I have to keep it secret, otherwise if the examiners know that I am taking the exam, it may be unfair to other moves, you say that if those examiners know that I, the commander of the brocade guard, will they dare not let me win?"
Hong Feng said: "What Brother Zhang said is reasonable, if they know, they will definitely pat your ass." Ma Junlan said: "Are you afraid that we will say it!" Lingyu said: "It's not that I'm afraid that you will say it, but I'm afraid that you will want to see me if you know that you are curious and cause some unnecessary trouble, but you still can't say it now, and you can't reveal your true identity until after the palace examination." Hong Feng said: "Will the emperor treat you for the crime of bullying the king?" Lingyu said: "You can rest assured about this! I have already agreed with the emperor." ”
At this time, Chunlan came with the maids and rings, and Chunlan said: "Childe, the food is here." Lingyu said, "Quickly put it on the table." We're going to celebrate tonight. That's the end of the topic. Only talk about drinking. After saying that, everyone sat down, and the maids quickly filled the table with dishes. Ma Junlan said with a smile: "Chunlan, tonight's dishes are so rich. Chunlan said with a smile: "It was ordered by Gongzi, and it was said to celebrate the title of Liu Gongzi and their gold list." Ma Junlan said with a smile: "Big brother, I'm afraid it's just for yourself!" Lingyu smiled: "You're right, Sister Lan still understands me, in fact, it's just for me, Brother Liu, they are just stained." Liu Qingyang said: "It can be regarded as having face if you can touch your Lord Zhang." I don't know how many people want to get naked and don't have a chance. ”
Lingyu smiled: "Just kidding, you remember, we will always be good brothers, drinking." After speaking, he raised his wine glass and drank it together. Everyone was talking and laughing while eating, drinking, and there was a scene of happy laughter. I didn't finish until late.
Besides, the show girls selected by the emperor were all sent to the capital by their parents, and they all had royal travel expenses, and now they all rushed to the capital, there are more than 4,000 people, all of whom are innocent girls between the ages of thirteen and sixteen, and Han Xue also joined the ranks of this huge beautiful girl. These thousands of people were first screened by eunuchs. In the first round, one-fifth of the tall and short fat were removed; After the second round of screening, half of it went again, and after the third round of screening, it went more than half. In the end, six hundred and fifty men remained.
These 650 people are all palace maids, and after entering the palace, they are inspected by the female officials of the palace, and the palace maids are taken to the secret room separately, "probing their breasts, sniffing their armpits, touching their textures, and inspecting their chastity." "You can't have a little scar on your body. Then 200 people were selected from 650 people as the head of the palace maids, and 50 people were selected from 200 people, and these 50 beauties were automatically promoted to concubines. Han Xue is also among the fifty concubines, not to mention that Lingyu has greeted the eunuchs, even if she doesn't say it, she can be selected.
Originally, the queen mother or concubine would select three more from these fifty beauties for the emperor to appoint a queen, and the remaining two were concubines. The Empress Dowager died early, and there was a Concubine Liu, and these three people were selected by Concubine Liu.
Fifty concubines have just been selected, they are all temporarily living in Changle Palace, one by one has an outstanding demeanor, Ana, delicate face into flowers, some smile and talk to people, some sit alone and meditate, most of them are joyful, especially from ordinary people, they will be promoted to concubines with official qualities can also glorify their ancestors, if they get the emperor's favor and then seal a princess, a concubine or something, that is a product, more noble, how can they not think about it more and more joyful?
At this time, Princess Jade walked in, and Cailian followed by her and shouted, "The princess has arrived." When all the concubines heard this, they all came to greet her, and the princess said, "Let's be even!" and then said, "Which one is Miss Han Xue." Han Xue hurriedly stepped forward when she heard this: "The slave is Han Xue, and she has seen the princess." The princess said: "It's the daughter of Han Shangshu's family." Han Xue said: "Back to the princess, Han Shangshu is the father." The princess said, "Miss Han, I want to talk to you alone, please come with me." The princess said to the other concubines: "All the girls have a good rest, take care of their spirits, and tomorrow the imperial concubine will choose the imperial concubine for the emperor, and you must behave well." After speaking, he walked outside, and the concubines saluted: "Princess Xie cares, send off the princess." ”
Han Xue followed the princess out of Changle Palace, and after walking for a while, Han Xue said as she walked: "Princess, where are we going." The princess said, "I'll take you to meet someone." Han Xue said: "I don't know who the princess wants to take the slave and maid to see." Cailian said: "Of course, it is a person who is of great benefit to you." The princess said: "You don't have to be nervous, I know that you and Zhang Lingyu are good friends, and you should also know my relationship with Lingyu Dao!" Han Xue said: "Of course I know, maybe the world knows that Zhang Gongzi is the quasi-horse of Princess Jade." "The princess said;" Brother Yu said that the imperial brother loves Miss Han very much, and handed over this matter to Brother Yu, and Brother Yu asked me to help you be selected into the top three, and now I will take you to see the imperial concubine. Han Xue said: "Thank you princess for helping to make it happen, Zhang Gongzi has the grace of reinvention for the slave maid, so I won't say thank you, the slave and maid wish you and Zhang Gongzi a deep love." The princess smiled: "Miss Han is really good at talking, I love to hear this." ”
The princess and Han Xue came to the residence of the imperial concubine of Changning Palace while talking, and the palace maid ran in to return after seeing the princess giving a salute, and immediately turned around and said, "Princess, the imperial concubine invites you in." The princess and Han Xue, Cailian followed the palace maid into the palace concubine's house, and the imperial concubine sat on the chair and watched the princess come in and smiled: "Jade girl, why did you think of playing with the mourning family today." The princess smiled and stepped forward to salute, "Of course I miss you!" The concubine smiled: "I don't believe it, you are willing to do anything." The princess said: "The princess really has a high opinion. ”
The concubine smiled: "This is not like your maid, she is so handsome and beautiful, but she looks like a newly selected concubine." The princess smiled: "What the concubine said is so right, she is the newly selected concubine, she is Han Shangshu's daughter Han Xue." Han Xue hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "The slave and maid pay a visit to the imperial concubine, and wish the imperial concubine a long life and good health." The imperial concubine said: "This girl is not only beautiful, but also very good at talking." Han Xue said: "Emperor Xie praised it." ”
The princess walked up to the imperial concubine and whispered to her: "Concubine, I am here for her today, she is the girl that the imperial brother likes, she has met before, and she didn't know that the imperial brother was the crown prince at that time." The concubine said: "The emperor is too, since he likes people, he will ask someone to say hello to the mourning family." The princess smiled and said, "Isn't Yu'er here?" The concubine smiled: "Okay, the mourning family understands." The concubine paused and said, "Xue'er, come to the mourning family, let the mourning family take a good look at your little beauty." ”
Han Xue smiled and walked lightly to the concubine, the concubine reached out to hold Han Xue's onion-white jade-like little hand with a slight redness, and when she touched her hand, it was as smooth as condensed fat, and then looked up at Han Xue's delicate face, and said secretly: "What a beauty, her delicate and beautiful face is full of grace and luxury, and she is really a good candidate for the queen."
