Chapter 43: Choosing a Palace Maiden
On the first day of October in the eighth year of Nidi, the autumn is high and cool, and the clouds are light and the wind is light. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ info Wentu leaned on the red column of the palace hall, his heart was full of emotion, and he was anxious about Fu Rou, the emperor and Zhuo Ji, and he was secretly smiling at the moment, if he was in the Qing Dynasty, he took over a eunuch man, that is, on the order of the Queen Mother and the chief guard officer Jing Zi, he came to the palace to supervise the annual selection of palace maids.
"By the order of the Queen Mother," the palace official said loudly, "On the day of selection, the daughter of Yahui will be ordered to enter the palace, replace the first servant, give priority to virtue, and the family members behind you will be a good encounter, please stand up and come in for an interview one by one." β
"Congratulations to the Queen Motherβ" A few columns of nearly 100 young girls responded.
From a distance, Wentu looks like these must be girls from poor families, trying to enter the palace and fighting for their lives to get some subsistence for the family, and their hearts are sour.
When he returned to the palace hall, he sat in the seat of the second examiner.
Wentu doesn't know the rules of the palace, just chooses the palace maid, and he deals with it absent-mindedly, it can be seen that although the palace is the main exam, but every time he fancies, the chief will consult Wentu, everyone knows that this Wen waiter is a celebrity around the queen mother, but he can't be offended, Wentu snickered in his heart, glad that he was not in the Qing Dynasty, otherwise the thing under him would have been gone, and he would never refute it whenever he asked, these are not his own affairs, just find an honest maid for the queen mother.
The examiner was old-fashioned, and most of the questions were about the regulations in the palace, and he paid little attention to appearance, but some women with outstanding appearance were expelled on the spot. Wentu understands that this old master must be a loyal man, everything is for the sake of the girls, as the saying goes, slaves do not oppress the master, most of these palace maids serve the harem princess and princess, they are too beautiful and have the suspicion of dominating the guests, and it is very likely that they will not be favored anywhere, and sometimes they will even die because of their beautiful appearance.
The repeated words made Wentu a little sleepy, he kept nodding his head, and no longer looked at the women who entered one by one, he knew that there was no beautiful person who could stay.
"What's your name, how old is it, and where does your family live?" asked the registrar.
"The little girl's name is Fu'er, twenty years old, from Dongbin. β
A beautiful voice came!
The voice was so familiar that it had lingered in dreams a million times!
Wentu was so shocked that he almost rushed out, coughed quickly in a hurry, and immediately looked up - it was Fu Rou!
Needless to say, although the girl in front of her has a sad face, she can be detached and outstanding, elegant and beautiful, revealing a fairy-like momentum, and even more so, staggered, delicate, and delicate, Sensei said that the palace maid, even if it is the imperial concubine of the harem, rarely has this kind of posture, how can this kind of stunner enter the palace?!
"Wait," Ventu coughed a few more times before stopping, "Wait!"
The presiding officer's hand was immediately put down, and he turned his face to look at Wentu, he said that he would naturally have to wait, and it was understandable what kind of person the Queen Mother would go to.
"The woman in the palace replied, have you ever read the "Rites"?" Wentu asked deliberately, this is a well-known book in the Gongdan Empire.
Fu Rou was also stunned, and looked at the voice, Wentu?!Martial Arts Alliance Leader Wentu?!That Wentu who forcibly kissed him! Right now, he is a scourge!
"The woman in the audience replied!" the presiding officer slapped the table.
Fu Rou hurriedly came back to her senses and replied softly: "The little girl is not talented, she understands a little." β
Wentu's heart almost jumped out, so that his head swelled and ached, and he shook his head a few times to loosen his veins, this Fu Rou couldn't find it for thousands of years, but he didn't expect to send it to the door! She was by no means a servant in the palace, she must have a huge conspiracy, to keep her, but also to protect her, no matter what the task, she must be missing! So he pretended to be careless and asked, "What is the first preface of the engagement?"
Of course, this is not difficult for the Dongtu County Lord, Fu Rou opened his mouth and came: "I'd rather eat the chaff of a gentleman than the wine of a villain!"
"Well," Wentu nodded with satisfaction for his future wife, and when he read this article, he also had some understanding, and summed up a sentence: It is better to lift shoes for a gentleman than to be a father to a villain. At this time, all the deer in his heart were running, in fact, as long as he said a word, he could take Fu Rou away, but in order to tease the county lord, he still pretended to ask in a deep voice, "I don't know if Fu'er has ever had someone in mind?"
Fu Rou was stunned again, and the shadow of Wentu suddenly flashed in her mind, but she was immediately denied by herself, this is a hateful thing!
The officer in charge coughed dryly, indicating that Master Wen's exam questions were biased.
Wentu didn't care about that, hiding the excitement in his heart, and asked another question: "The sky is low, the earth is high, what are the specialties of Fu'er?"
"Lord Hui," the county lord's face became more and more difficult to look at, "The little girl has a little medical knowledge, but it is also a fur technique, which is not worth mentioning." β
"Oh?" Wentu knew that Fu Rou was permeated with the essence of medical skills in her bones, and she didn't want to come to the Gongdan Empire but still had some potential, and immediately felt that there must be a way to wake her up, "Then you can take a look, is this official sick now?"
"Adult's cheeks are flushed, the lips are white, and the eyes are dry, I'm afraid that there will be a peculiar smell in the mouth in two days," to put it bluntly, it is that Wentu is about to have bad breath, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone, Fu Rou does not mind angering Wentu, and someone next to him snickered, and was stopped by the presiding officer's angry eyes, "This is caused by the real fire in the heart, you can take a little solid lotus and add rock sugar to boil juice to drink, and it will be cured immediately in three days." β
Wentu was happy and ashamed, indeed restless because of the emperor's disappearance, which caused the fire to rise, and was ridiculed by Fu Rou in public, and he was also a little embarrassed, so he didn't dare to ask again, and pretended to be satisfied and said: "This woman is smart and smart, and she stays in the Guangci Palace to serve the Queen Mother!"
"Fu'er, the maiden, should be allowed by the waiter to enter the Guangci Palace!" the chief officer ordered, and the subordinate entered the famous Bo, and waited at the back of the palace.
The following screening Wentu was not watching, and the heart was coping with it, until noon, dozens of palace maids were selected, Wentu instructed the palace officials to be careful to distribute, and so on, and he didn't know what he said, and hastily performed his duties and went straight to the apse, leading Fu Rou to move to Guangci Palace.
At this moment, Wentu kept laughing in his heart, and finally knew how to shuttle, the time came naturally, there was no need to force it, and he couldn't help but be grateful for the shuttle corridor, if he was looking for a year and a half, maybe the harem had already changed suddenly.
Seeing that there was no one around, he turned around and looked at the little lady in front of him unscrupulously, so tempting!
The county lord glared at him fiercely, his face flushed with anger.
Compared with Fu Rou, the position in the palace is much bigger than her, Wen Tu couldn't help but smile and stretched out his hand, intending to hold Fu Rou's hand, definitely looking like an ugly figure of an obscene adult!
Fu Rou stepped back and shouted in a deep voice: "The civil servant is going to humiliate the county lord, you and I have tacit understanding, mutual suspicion, since the county lord dares to come, he will put life and death out of the way, you have to be careful of your head!"
Wen Tu hurriedly stopped his smile, thinking that there would not be many opportunities to talk to Fu Rou in the future, so Zhengse asked: "Forgive me for being reckless, stealing that the old acquaintance just collided, but Wen wanted to ask, the county lord is the new lord of the Eastern Land, why did he succumb to the palace maid and apply for it, and he was not afraid to expose you?"
"Hmph!" Fu Rou said disdainfully, "Forgive me and don't dare, countless people under my command, including General Nie, can confirm that you are an accomplice, and Prince Pan, a word will also put you in a place of no return, and then the county lord will of course order you to be buried with you!"
Wentu gasped, if these people pointed out at the same time, especially Nie Liang, they would rather die and protect the county lord, and then King Pan fanned the flames, he had absolutely no good fruit to eat, so he asked again: "If it is not surprising, you should know the emperor's situation, why did he still come to the harem regardless of life and death, do you still want to touch the rule of the Central Plains?"
"You don't have to worry about this!" Fu Rou looked at Wentu coldly, she wanted to find out whether the emperor had collapsed, and secondly, to observe the movement of the Central Plains to the eastern soil, once there was a crisis, she would naturally die to make trouble for King Pan and avoid the catastrophe of the eastern soil, "You just need to be your guard officer, rest assured, I will never harm the queen mother......"
At the mention of the Queen Mother, Wen Tu gloomed, and muttered in his mouth, "That's good, that's good," he said, got up seriously, and said in a begging tone, "His Royal Highness the County Lord, the Queen Mother is dedicated to all the people of the world, even if it is sometimes extreme, it is not harmful, and I hope you will be cautious, if you annoy the county lord, Wen will voluntarily replace the death, and you must not harm the current Queen Mother, Wen is here to plead...... "If the Queen Mother is in trouble, I am afraid that this day will collapse, which means that no matter what the task of this trip is, it will end in failure."
Fu Rou was stunned for a moment, but didn't say anything anymore, and motioned for Wentu to lead the way. In a blink of an eye, Wentu was restrained by the county lord, and he no longer dared to laugh, so he had to walk into the main Guangci Palace.
The wind and rain also erupted with the impersonation of the lord of Dongtu.
The Queen Mother glanced at Fu Rou who was kneeling on the ground from time to time, but she was carelessly holding the Buddha beads, so anxious that Wentu secretly prayed in her heart, County Lord, Fu Rou, Fu'er, don't get excited, the Queen Mother has her own skills to control people, and she sometimes can't figure it out, and she has half a pillar of incense before she said: "Get up!"
"Yes, Queen Mother!" Fu Rou bowed her head and replied.
"Fu'er, Fu'er," the Queen Mother repeated Fu Rou's name, stopped her hand and felt it, "You knelt there motionless, without any anxious appearance, which made the mourning family ponder, so respectful and courteous, it is very rare at your age, if you are dedicated to waiting for the mourning family, it is naturally the luck of this Guangci Palace, if there is a flying Huang Tengda heart to have something else to endure this, it is also a disaster of this Guangci Palace, in the future, you must stay away from the emperor and the emperor's relatives, so as not to cause accidents." β
"Yes, Queen Mother, Fu'er only wants to serve Niangniang, and she has nothing else to ask for. Fu Rou replied firmly.
Lies!, Wentu said secretly.
"That's good," the Queen Mother couldn't help but look at the Mei Nizi in front of her again, and her brows furrowed again, "You will follow the Cui Ying to learn the etiquette in the palace, and pick up the stall of the old maid and aunt who left the palace." You must keep in mind that everything must not be transgressed, women are too smart, often lead to regrets, men are too stupid, and it is also difficult, you can do it yourself," the Queen Mother will never let go of a suspicious person, and handed Wentu a look, it is so cold and helpless, Wentu's heart is very cold, that is to make himself pay attention to the movements of this maid at all times, once he finds misconduct, kill him immediately!" "You go to bed first, clean up and stop before you come to serve." β
"Obey the will of the mother. Fu Rou replied.
Fu Rou followed Wentu and Cuiying to the bedroom of the Guangci Palace, Wentu had a stomach full of things to say, and her palms couldn't help but sweat.
