Family Has a Concubine

In mid-March, Emperor Zhengxuan's long-awaited draft finally began.

Emperor Zhengxuan was in a good mood, and seeing Empress Zheng always smiling and encouraging him, he invited Empress Zheng to come to the draft together to show his respect and favor to her.

Early this morning, Emperor Zhengxuan ended his court early and came to the imperial garden.

During this period of time, the weather is getting warmer and spring is full of vibes, and the imperial garden is full of colorful and lively scenes. Wouldn't it be wonderful to have beautiful women with flowers?

Therefore, Emperor Zhengxuan asked people to set up a table in the imperial garden, and selected beauties here.

Emperor Zhengxuan walked into the imperial garden, and Empress Zheng also came, and hurriedly saluted: "See the emperor."

"Hahaha, Empress, get up quickly." Emperor Zhengxuan helped her up, and the husband and wife went to the throne.

Empress Zheng looked at Emperor Zhengxuan's face full of spring, with a smile on his face, but his eyes were cold. Husband's vinegar, no matter what age, must be delicious. Especially at this juncture - her son is capable and has already controlled the overall situation, so why should she endure it!

The two sat down, and Cai Jie ordered people to serve the food and wine, while a musician played elegant music carefully.

Cai Jie asked Emperor Zhengxuan while pouring wine, Emperor Zhengxuan nodded, Cai Jie straightened up, and screamed: "Xiu Nu enters the arena!"

When they arrived at the Imperial Palace, there were only fifty beautiful women left. In order for Emperor Zhengxuan to take a closer look, they were divided into ten groups of five in a row.

Following Cai Jie's voice, the show girls walked in slowly and stood in front of Emperor Zhengxuan one by one.

Emperor Zheng Xuan saw these young girls standing neatly in front of him, and his heart was agitated. Looking at them, he felt like he was ten years younger in an instant.

The delicate girls stood in front of him in unison. Emperor Zhengxuan had been in a drought for more than ten years, and his hazy old eyes were not enough for Xiunu, so he wished to keep them all.

"See the emperor." The five beautiful girls saluted neatly, and the moment they looked up, they saw two people on the throne not far away. They were dressed in bright yellow dragon robes, quite majestic, but with gray hair, wrinkled faces, and old eyes. At first glance, he looked like an old man in his eighties.

The show girls couldn't help but tremble in their hearts, two of them turned pale, and the remaining three were only a little disappointed.

Cai Jie took the badge and read it.

Emperor Zhengxuan had already calmed down, looked down at the album in front of him, and circled a person in the album with a pen.

Seeing that he had chosen the most beautiful one, Empress Zheng couldn't help but snorted softly.

After another three rounds, it was the fifth round, and five more beautiful girls came in.

Emperor Zhengxuan lifted up his old dim eyes, and then a look of astonishment flashed across him, and he saw that the second beauty from the right was beautiful and refined, her appearance was not too alluring, but what was rare was that she had an incomparable demeanor, like a clear spring . It's just that his expression is a little cold!

Emperor Zhengxuan lowered his head and saw that the beauty's name was Su Ziqin, and even her name sounded so nice! Without even thinking about it, she circled her name immediately.

In the next five rounds, Emperor Zhengxuan circled six more people.

In this draft, twelve people were left at once.

Empress Zheng quickly asked the little eunuch to go out of the palace to report to the prince.

Prince's study——

The prince was just entering the study with Song Xiao and an old man, when the little eunuch came to deliver the letter. The prince opened it, but it was a roster.

The prince spread the roster on the desk, took a look at it, and the prince sneered: "I'm not ashamed, I have retained twelve people, can he chew it?"

Li Gui and the old man snorted.

The prince brushed the names on the book lightly with his fingers, and narrowed his eyes slightly, "The last time we asked to check, four of them were selected by him." He said and looked at Song Xiao: "Have you found out?"

"Yes." Song Xiao said and presented a pamphlet, "This subordinate is preparing to present it to His Highness."

The prince flipped through it, and finally nodded to Su Ziqin's brochure: "That's her!"

Song Xiao and the old man hurriedly said: "Your Highness is famous, and among all the beautiful girls, she is the most suitable."

Her life experience and daily activities are clearly written in the brochure.

This woman is the eldest daughter of a well-known and unknown wealthy businessman. But because his biological mother died early, he had a stepmother, and he had no brothers and sisters from the same mother, so he lived very aggrieved since he was a child.

Before her late mother died, she also engaged a merchant. Although the family was not as powerful as the Su family, at least they still had enough food and clothing.

Su Ziqin and her fiancé usually have a very good relationship, you love me.

As a result, the emperor suddenly wanted to draft a talent show, and all the prefectures were eager to present beauties, and Su Ziqin was a famous beauty in Hengzhou. The governor of Hengzhou went to the Su family and said that Su Ziqin would be drafted, and said that with her beauty, she would definitely be selected!

Master Su was eager to have a concubine in his family, so he used the waste to let Rang ruin the marriage and let Su Ziqin enter the Beijing draft.

Su Ziqin's fiancé ran to Su's house to make trouble, but was seriously injured and died a few days after being carried home.

The prefect asked people to cover up the matter, only saying that her fiancé died of illness. The fiancé's parents came to make trouble, but the magistrate beat up the couple and kept suppressing their business, making it impossible for them to survive in the Chengfu of Chengzhou.

Su Ziqin was forced into the palace under such background.

The prince couldn't help recalling Su Ziqin's appearance, she was definitely the top among the beautiful girls, and her temperament was good. After a while, they will formally go to bed, the old things will definitely not leave her behind, that is an opportunity!

"Just her!" The crown prince narrowed his eyes slightly, "Looking at that desperate look, hehe, maybe it's just for the fiancé's parents to live now. Li Gui, you send someone into the palace to send a message to the queen mother, and ask her to arrange redemption. Oriole to Su Ziqin."

"Yes." Li Gui agreed, then turned and left.

These show girls are all from civilian backgrounds, and there are many palace rules, so they have to study the palace rules for a month before they can sleep in bed. Although they haven't been officially sealed yet, a little maid will be arranged to wait on them now.

Zhenxihou Mansion——

Ye Tangcai was doing embroidery slowly and bored.

A few days ago, she found him annoying, clinging to her every day, making her unable to draw and embroider well, but now that he left, she lost the mood to embroider or draw.

"The third master should have gone to Lingzhou, right?" Ye Tang said.

"It must be here." Huiran said while wearing silk thread.

Just as she was talking, Qing Liu's voice sounded outside, "Third Grandma, Yu Han is here."

Ye Tangcai was surprised: "Come in."

Yuhan came in through the curtain and saluted: "See Third Grandma. Just received the letter, Third Master has arrived in Chengzhou."

Ye Tangcai breathed a sigh of relief: "What's the news from King Liang?"

"Third Master and the others went all the way to Lingzhou, and a government official from Lingzhou came to report to Third Master, saying that King Liang had fought several times with the prefect of Lingzhou, but he escaped. The prefect closed the front and rear gates tightly, forbidding The common people come in and out. Now we are waiting for the third master to pass by and catch a turtle in a urn!" Yu Han said.

Ye Tangcai snorted softly: "It's indeed a catch in a urn."
