The Emperor's Daughter Arrives: Upgrade to Fight Monsters and Find Husbands

"Okay." Lin Shishi muttered in a low voice, "Another unlucky guy."

"What?" Xiaolu asked.

Lin Shishi laughed and said, "It's okay. It seems like your eldest lady isn't treating you well?"

"Well..." Xiaolu hesitated, not knowing how to speak for a long time.

"Our room belongs to a distant branch of the Qi family. There are only three of us, my parents and I. It is far inferior to the original family. When my grandfather was still alive, he could rely on the mercy of the head of the family and give us some money every month, which was a reasonable living. Not bad. But now that the head of the family has changed, our life is much more difficult. We can only rely on my father to hunt and my mother to do some needlework to survive."

Qi Xiaolu sighed: "I used to think that the eldest lady was not good to me. But when I thought about it, the eldest lady gave me such a good opportunity. It seems that the master still cares about us."

Lin Shishi:......It's hard to comment.

"I wish you good luck." Lin Shishi also fell silent, "However, I heard that the prince's reputation is not very good."

A trace of doubt flashed in Qi Xiaolu's eyes. Before she could ask anything, she saw a nanny coming out of the palace, followed by several people. Judging from her clothes, she must have a high status in the palace.

"quiet!"

The noisy crowd immediately fell silent, shocked to the spot by this sound. Mammy walked out from the palace gate and scanned everyone with sharp eyes.

"The official ladies of our country stand on the left, those from third-class countries stand in the middle, and those from fourth-class countries and below stand on the right!"

Everyone silently began to stand in line, fearing to offend the nanny. Some official ladies from the country recognized that this was Nanny Li who was beside the queen. She was also the queen's nanny and had a very high status in the palace.

Everyone quickly stood in line. Now it is clear at a glance that the girl in the team on the left is obviously not on the same level as the one on the right.

Grandma Li saw everyone quickly forming a line, but her face was still cold and stern.

"The one on the left comes first, followed by those on the other two sides."

Depending on the status level, the treatment received is also different. This rule was extremely obvious even in this small banquet for the selection of the prince's concubine.

"Follow me." Nanny Li raised her eyelids and glanced this way.

The girl in pink skirt who led the team on the left gave a slight salute. She seemed to be an old acquaintance with Grandma Li. Grandma Li's face became gentler and she nodded towards her.

"Wearing a skirt in this weather?" Lin Shishi glanced at the leading woman and pouted.

Although monks can use their cultivation to defend themselves, in their current state, doing so is a bit wasteful. Lin Shishi still likes to wrap herself into rice dumplings in autumn and winter. How cute!

"Sister, you go back first." Lin Shishi held Jiu Tang's hand tightly. Anyway, she was the only one to participate in the selection of concubine. Jiu Tang could accompany her here.

"Wait for me sister Ha, I'll go back soon." Lin Shishi whispered.

A smile appeared on Jiu Tang's face: "Then sister should come back early."

The group of people who participated in the selection of the concubine followed the nanny and walked inside, winding around to a palace. There was a plaque hanging on it with the three characters "Jingyi Palace" written in large letters.

"Those from home come in first." There are fewer girls from home, only fifty or sixty. After all, the daughters of those families in the capital are basically included in the Prince's Mansion. We can only choose those families who are not married, and their status cannot be too bad, so there are only these people left.

When the girls entered the room, the eunuch behind the team closed the door, blocking the sight of the girls outside.

Lin Shishi found that although Qi Xiaolu was a bit naive, she was still quite cute sometimes - it was no wonder that she had grown up in the countryside, where the people were simple and honest, which was how she developed this temperament.

Qi Xiaolu's family is also a senior official in a third-class country, and that country is also close to Eryuan.

"Xiaolu, if you come to Eryuan in the future, you can come to the Lin Mansion to play with me."

Qi Xiaolu was a little happy and nodded heavily: "Okay!"

A few people chatted and time passed quickly.

After everyone waited for about half an hour, there was a soft creaking sound from the door, and some of the girls who came out were happy and some were sad. However, not all those who are happy may be selected, and not all those who are sad may not be selected.

"Sixty people come in." Mammy ordered outside again, just as Lin Shishi and Qi Xiaolu arrived.

Qi Xiaolu looked a little nervous and gently tugged on Lin Shishi's sleeve, and the two of them followed the team in.

.........

"Master. What should we do? Sneak in?"

Xiaoyu vines shook, a little impatient.

After Jiu Tang left, he walked for a while and frowned slightly. He originally wanted to go to a deserted area in Linyuan over there and then direct Zhu Zhu to go in. He paused and walked towards the downtown area with the most people.

It's noon now, a time when there are many people. Jiu Tang blended into the crowd and walked back and forth between various vendors and shops. Finally, following the flow of people, I found the largest fitting room in the Imperial City. I picked up a piece of clothing, threw a pack of crystal stones to the boss, and entered the fitting room.

There were dozens of customers in the fitting room, separated by small curtains, and only vague figures inside could be seen outside.

Jiu Tang opened the curtain and entered a room at will. After a while, there was a sound of the curtain being opened from somewhere, and a girl walked outside with brisk footsteps.

Jiu Tang disappeared on the spot, and was replaced by a small ball, which bounced out and pulled tightly at the lower end of the girl's skirt. It blended perfectly with the accessories on the skirt and was led out of the fitting room by the girl.

I couldn't see the girl's face clearly from this angle, but I could only hear the boss flattering her as soon as she left the fitting room door:

"Your Highness, Second Princess, this dress is a perfect match for you, and it makes your temperament even more extraordinary, as if you are a descendant of the world. No! Even if the fairy from the nine heavens comes, I'm afraid it will be inferior to you! "

"This is a very sad thing to say."

Xiaoyu secretly complained that in its eyes, no beauty was as good-looking as its master.

Xiaoyu's voice reached Jiutang's ears, but Jiutang ignored it. Because all her attention was attracted by the second princess’ next words:

"I will wear this dress to the palace later to give my mother a surprise!" She had ordered this dress two months ago and just put it on today. As expected, both the fabric decoration and the workmanship details are amazing. She was particularly pleasantly surprised. It is indeed the number one ready-to-wear store in the capital!

"Here, reward." The little princess raised her chin with pride on her face. The shopkeeper praised her to the core, and she said to the two maids serving beside her.

He took the two maids into a carriage outside the store and drove away.

Half an hour later, the shopkeeper remembered that there was a customer who took money to buy clothes as soon as he came in. He had not seen such a cheerful customer in a long time.

But the guest was a little strange. It had been an hour, but why hadn't he come out yet?

"Yan'er." The boss told his little daughter, who was just five or six years old, "Go and see if there is that customer inside."

Then he described Jiu Tang's ordinary appearance in detail, Yan'er went in to look for it, came out and shook his head: "No."

The shopkeeper was a little strange, and then thought that there might be too many customers, and he might go out at any time, so he didn't take it to heart.
