The imperial concubine is always jealous

A few days later, after the first election, the second election, and a few days of court etiquette instruction, the showgirls finally handed down the oral instructions of the nobles.

In the early morning of this day, all the beautiful women of Shangxiu Palace stood neatly outside Shangxiu Palace, listening to the lectures of the aunt in charge of Shangxiu Palace.

"Listen, today the imperial concubine will come to test the talents and character of the ladies, please pay attention to yourself, and don't lose your manners in front of the imperial concubine."

The courageous show girl immediately asked: "Girl, may I ask what kind of person does the imperial concubine like?"

The aunt in charge looked at the beautiful ladies with their ears up, and suddenly smiled: "Although the imperial concubine is favored by the emperor, the ladies also have to go to please the empress, after all, as long as you can make the emperor like it, it will be fine."

The emperor likes it?All the beautiful girls blushed when they heard the words, but they couldn't help fantasizing about what it would be like to be favored by No. 1 in the world.

But, can the emperor still remember her?Xia Chun touched her belly without any trace. In fact, her belly was already a little big, but she was wearing loose clothes and a corset, which made it less conspicuous.

"Lin Yue, Lin Yue..."

Xia Chun recovered from his daze, and asked the girl who was quietly poking his arm, "What's wrong?"

"Why are you in a daze?" The girl looked at the aunt in charge who was leading the maids to check the clothes and things on the show girl. "If the aunt in charge catches her, she will be arrested again to learn the rules."

Xia Chun smiled bitterly: "I just thought of something, and then I lost my mind. Thanks to my sister for reminding me."

Soon, the aunt in charge came to check on them. When it was Xia Chun's turn, the aunt in charge only took a look at her clothes, but did not let the maids inspect her belongings.

"Miss Lin, your makeup is too light, ask the maid to remake it for you."

Xia Chunfu said, "Yes." Then her maid quickly came over, helped her to the side, and reapplied her makeup.

"My sister wants to dress up like this. The blandness conceals my sister's natural beauty."

The corners of Xia Chun's mouth curled up, and he forced a smile: "Why should my sister make fun of me, my sister thinks that my sister is as delicate as a flower."

Xia Chun really envied her. Du Wei was born in a wealthy family. According to rumors in the capital, she is a talented woman who has read poetry and books, is good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.Unlike her, even though she became everyone's daughter in name, no matter how well she pretended, the inside would be empty after all.

"Okay, don't delay any longer, and quickly stand in your place." The aunt in charge shouted, "When you enter the hall, don't make any noise, wait patiently for the arrival of the imperial concubine, and if there is any troublemaker, hit [-] big slaps, Directly exempt from draft qualifications, do you hear me clearly?"

"Yes." All the beautiful women are blessed.

"How does this palace dress up today?" Yunhuang Guifei asked while applying lipstick in front of the mirror.She noticed that every time the queen looked at her, she would linger on her face for a few seconds. She didn't pay much attention to her appearance before, but now she is glad that she has such a appearance.

As for her beauty, Imperial Concubine Yun didn't bother with this issue. The queen empress liked her appearance, and since the appearance belonged to her, wouldn't that be the same as liking her.

Wen Ruo replied without thinking: "Master is naturally extremely beautiful."

"That's good, prepare the sedan chair, and go with me to Shangxiu Palace." She put the white jade box containing lip balm on the dressing table, and muttered to herself: "I don't know if the Empress has passed."

Wen Ruo said: "If the master wants to know, why not send someone to Fengyi Palace to ask? The servant heard that Lan Zhaoyi passed by early in the morning."

When Emperor Yun heard the words, a trace of fear flashed in her eyes: "Prepare the sedan chair, I have to go to Fengyi to have a look first, and then go to Shangxiu Palace later."

Anyway, the draft is not a big deal, the queen's side is more important, so she can't see what the little girl is thinking?Can't let her succeed.

Sangsoo Palace

In the main hall, the beautiful women stood in six rows, with a two-foot-wide aisle in the middle, and at the end were ten steps of stairs, and the top one was the seat for the ladies.

The steward of Shangxiu Palace is standing on this ladder.

Du Wei glanced at the aunt in charge standing above, moved her footsteps lightly, and said in a low voice: "Hey, Lin Yue, are your feet numb? My feet are so tired."

Xia Chun smiled faintly and shook her head: "I'm fine." When she served the empress before, she stood there longer than this.

"Hey!" Du Wei sighed heavily, "What do you think this imperial concubine is doing? I haven't come for so long, my feet are numb."

"Keep your voice down." Xia Chun quickly covered her mouth, "You don't want to die, what if someone catches your pigtail?"

"Lin Yue, Du Wei, what are you two doing?" With a stern reprimand, Xia Chun hurriedly put down his hands and stood still without looking sideways.

Du Wei stuck out her tongue and whispered, "Old hag."

"Du Wei—" Shangxiu Palace steward frowned fiercely, and before she had time to teach her a lesson, the voice of the master of ceremonies came in:

"The Empress is here—"

"The imperial concubine is here—"

The steward of Shangxiu Palace was startled, before she went out to greet her, he saw the big palace maid beside the empress coming in, followed by the guard of honor of the two empresses.

"Kneel—" the master of ceremonies sang.

"Kowtow to the empress and imperial concubine." The steward of Shangxiu Palace brought all the beautiful ladies to kneel and kowtow together.

Du Wei maintained the kowtow posture, watching a group of court ladies walking past her, and then the two empresses should have come over, Du Wei tried to peek from the corner of her eye, but could only see the two empresses walking past Back view, and their exquisite and luxurious clothes.

Tang Fei took a few concubines to the upper place, and after she and Yunhuang Guifei sat down, she said to the concubines, "Sit down too."

"Thank you, Empress, for giving me your seat." Several concubines headed by Li Pin replied, and then found a few seats to sit down.

Concubine Yun Huang wore a water-blue long dress with flying birds and flowers on the ground today. Because she was praised by the empress who was thinking about her when she came, she seemed to be in a much better mood.

"Everyone get up." Imperial Concubine Yun ordered, and took the tea brought by the maid, and handed it to Tang Fei hastily. "This is the best cloud and mist this year, sister hurry up and taste it."

"Cousin, you are really eccentric." Lan Zhaoyi sat down and complained. "The last time I asked you if there were still clouds and fog there, do you remember how you answered me?"

Concubine Yun raised her eyebrows when she heard the words, and stared at Lan Zhaoyi threateningly: "Oh, why don't I remember this?"

Lan Zhaoyi didn't notice the look in her dear cousin's eyes, but said angrily: "You told me then, you don't have any more!"

"Oh, that might be my misremembering." Imperial Concubine Yun didn't feel any embarrassment at being exposed, she just moved the topic lightly.

"What do you think of this tea, Queen?"

Tang Fei took a sip, then put down the teacup: "To live up to what the imperial concubine said, this Yunwu tea really lives up to its reputation."

The narrator said that this tea costs 500 taels per sip, and Tang Fei felt her heart hurt after drinking it.

After all, she and the narrator are still poor.

Upon hearing this, Imperial Concubine Yun's eyes lit up: "Then sister, do you like it? I still have it. I'll send someone to send it to you later."

Narrator: "Please agree, players, this is 500 taels of tea."

Tang Fei flatly refused and said: "I appreciate the kindness of the imperial concubine. I heard that my sister has always liked tea, so it is inconvenient for me to take advantage of others."

Concubine Yunhuang hurriedly replied: "No, I still have a lot!"

A little tea is nothing good, it is enough for her to please the Queen's sister.

I only ask my sister to favor me.

"Okay, we'll talk about the tea in the future, there's still serious business to do now," Tang Fei said.

Concubine Li giggled when she heard this, and said: "The two concubines have a deep relationship, which makes my concubine very envious, but these beautiful girls have been waiting here for a long time, and if they don't start again, some people may become impetuous. "

As soon as her words fell, the hall where there was still a small sound just now fell silent. All the beautiful women watched their hearts, and no one wanted to be accused of being impetuous.

Imperial Concubine Yun looked coldly at the group of people below who were disturbing her relationship with the Empress, "The Empress has already said it, so let's start."

The steward of Shangxiu Palace took a roll of rosters and took a step forward: "To the Empress, there are a total of 320 beautiful women in this general election. After the primary election and the second election, there are 350 remaining."

Tang Fei said: "I heard that Taifu Chen's daughter also participated in the election? What's her name?"

"Back to Empress, the name of Taifu Chen's daughter is Chen Rushi."

Tang Fei nodded, "In that case, let's start the talent show with her."

"Respecting the imperial edict." Shangxiu Gong Fushen immediately shouted to the following: "Chen Rushi comes out."

Chen Rushi was staring at the ground under her feet and lost her mind. When she heard her name at first, she couldn't help being shocked. Fortunately, she never showed joy, so she didn't lose her demeanor.

"Chen Geng's daughter, Chen Rushi, has seen the two empresses, may the empresses be blessed and safe." She walked lightly to the middle with lotus steps, bowed her body and saluted.

Narrator: "This is a beauty! There is also a big beauty in the second and third row on the left below."

"Raise your head and let me have a look." A majestic female voice came to her ears, and Chen Ru raised her head as she said.

"What a pair of clear glazed eyes." Tang Fei praised: "In the past, the Japanese palace was in the boudoir, and I heard that the daughter of the Taifu was a beautiful woman, but now I see that she is indeed a beauty."

Hearing her praise, Chen Rushi bowed his head slightly and said, "Thank you for your compliment. According to my servant, the two concubines are so beautiful, and my servant sighs."

Concubine Yunhuang sneered: "You are sweet and talkative, so I want to ask you, between me and the empress, who is the Wushuang?"

This man's waist was not as thin as hers, his skin was not as white as hers, and his face was not as good-looking as hers, yet he was even praised by the empress sister himself.

"My daughter... my daughter..." Chen Rushi's forehead was covered with cold sweat, knowing that he had slipped his words for a moment.She thought that the imperial concubine and the empress looked very close, so she spoke boldly for a while, but she did not expect to offend the imperial concubine.

Also, in the palace, how can there be such a deep sisterhood?

"Tsk, I almost cried from fright." The narrator tutted, "It's also a beauty, but the imperial concubine is the most courageous, with a knife on her neck, and she doesn't change her face."

Tang Fei: "Why, you don't dislike Yunhuang Guifei very much, why do you still seem to admire it now?"

Narrator: "It's one thing to hate, but it won't lose a piece of meat if you look at it."

Tsk, duplicity.

Tang Fei looked down at Chen Rushi whose lips were about to bleed, and stopped her voice: "Okay, in my opinion, of course my younger sister is the most beautiful. She just made a slip of the tongue, so why should my younger sister make things difficult for others?"

Concubine Yunhuang snorted coldly, turned her head and looked to the other side: "This newcomer has not yet entered the palace, my sister has started to be biased."

Tang Fei: "..." Why did she feel so uncomfortable hearing this?
