C606

Everyone was talking about everything except Huangfu Yunrou, Xiang Yinrong, Su Lian, and the others who were living in the palace. They were unhappy about Dongfang Ning's return. Were there any more scenes for them?

"I thought she had turned into water as well, but who knew … Hahaha ~ Xiang Yinrong, what advantage do you have now? The emperor won't even spare you a glance!

Huangfu Yunrou suddenly turned around and laughed three times at Xiang Yinrong.

"She has already agreed to make a bet with me. We'll start next month and see if you can laugh or not!" "Humph!"

The thread in Xiang Yinrong's hand was almost broken by her. This Huangfu Yunrou was really annoying. Didn't she want to marry the Emperor as well? What was there to be proud of here?

"Miss, she's so arrogant because of the empress dowager's backing. We don't need to pay any attention to her, she'll know in the future."

"Hmph, let's go. It's almost time to gather!"

The eunuchs in the palace had long been bribed by her family. So what if Yan Wuzhan had Dongfang Ning? Even if she couldn't beat him, she still had to give up the throne.

The place for choosing a concubine was very wide. It was a large plaza that was similar to a gathering place, and there were all sorts of potted plants arranged in rows. The main seat was prepared for the empress dowager, because she was the one presiding over this time's concubine selection.

The women lined up in rows, picking from layer to layer. The first condition was that they had to have higher looks, so the ones sitting in the lowest row were some old mama in the palace. These mama were people from the original palace, and Li Songlin didn't find anyone to replace those from the harem, so these were all palace maids and eunuchs with many years of working experience, deeply trusted by Huangfu Feixue.

"Wei mama, I just received news that the empress dowager said that all those who come today will be accepted into the palace. There's no need to choose in the first round, only those who want to take the second round will be able to read, and those who don't know the words will stay behind.

According to Dongfang Ning, these people didn't even need to choose. They were all women from the Shangguan family, and some were the young ladies of wealthy families. Who didn't know how to read and write?

As a result, the mama sat down and let these people pass by them in batches before entering the second round as well.

On the last round, the mama finally began to speak:

"Everyone, your requirements to enter the palace have been lowered. Anyone who wishes to participate in the selection today can enter the palace. Those who are unwilling to enter the palace will not be forced to, but after registering with me, you can return home."

Two years ago, the person the Emperor paid respects to was not a ghost, but actually someone else. She was precisely the Imperial Advisor whose name shook the world three years ago, and also the former Dongfang Nation's Grand Princess, Dongfang Ning’er. Her status is not one bit inferior to any of you.

The emperor had already said that he would only marry one wife in his life, so he was going to stay. All of you have to think things through clearly, those who remain won't be favored by the emperor, and they won't meet the emperor. But they can work in the palace, a favor bestowed by the empress.

"Now everyone should think about whether we should go or stay. The imperial kitchens are already prepared for food. You can come here after lunch."

In the afternoon, the emperor, empress dowager, and the empress will all come personally. All of you should pay attention to your identities and not be rude.

The old wet nurse had a stern expression on her face. Only by doing this would she be able to scare these heaven's girls away. Who in the family didn't feel the pain of having these women being held in their palms?

They had to grow up from the day they entered the palace. Otherwise, they would not even know how they died here. This was the darkness of the imperial harem.

After everyone dispersed, they began to discuss what had happened today.

"It's true that the emperor only wants a single wife, but he didn't say that he doesn't want a concubine. No matter what, we have to fight for a position in the Three Palaces and Six Academies. I advise all of you to …" "Let's head back."

A pink-clothed girl announced loudly while bouncing around. She was brimming with confidence as she announced to everyone that she was determined to stay in the Imperial Palace.

"Yo, isn't this some princess from the West Ridge? Look at your rude appearance, the emperor won't even look at you!"

"Xiang Yinrong, you only know when you're beautiful when you're not talking, so what if you're beautiful? You chased after the emperor for three years, yet you haven't even seen him? Don't think that I don't know what you're doing in private. I advise you to marry my brother and eat without worry, do you really think you can compete with the empress's talent?"

Xiao Fengling surrounded Xiang Yinrong and punched her from top to bottom, "In your dreams!"

"You ~"

"What's wrong with me? You are just the daughter of a city lord, what about me? My family used to be part of the imperial family, so my status is a thousand times higher than yours!" I advise you to stop gambling, pack up and go home.

If you marry my brother and you can enjoy a lifetime of glory, you won't even pick one. There's more, you're older than me and you know that … "

Xiang Yinrong wanted to ignore her and leave with the little girl. One day, she would let these people know who was the most beautiful, most talented, and most worthy of Yan Wuzhan!1

After she left, she gave another green woman a wink. The woman then stopped and waited for the people behind her.

"The emperor is coming in the afternoon. I haven't seen what the emperor looks like before." Dongfang Fang'er was chatting with her younger sister, Dongfang Ting'er.

The green-robed woman walked beside them, chatting as they walked. "Are you going to stay at the palace?"

My mother said that once we entered the palace, we would be the emperor's woman. Although he has the empress, the empress can't have the emperor in her own right. As long as we can wait, there will come a day when he will favor us.

The green robed girl, seeing that they had managed to catch up, started to talk to each other.

"My two little sisters are so beautiful. They look just like Celestial Immortals. I'm sure they'll be favored by the emperor in the palace. It's hard for ordinary people like me to be like that. Sigh … I don't even know if I should go or stay. I'm so worried."

"Elder sister, don't say that. Once we enter the palace, we will be sisters. In the future, we must take care of each other a little."

When the green-clothed girl heard this, she immediately spoke to them mysteriously in a soft voice:

"I heard a rumor about the empress. I wonder if any of you know?"

"What is it? Empress, we know. She's a good person, she definitely won't bully us in the palace!"

"Sigh, what a pity. I heard that yesterday … A man was carrying her into the city. The people at the city gate saw her. "

"Is there such a thing? I don't believe it, but those people definitely don't recognize the empress. Why would the empress get entangled with other men? Don't say any more, we don't believe it! "

"That's right, that's impossible …" Although the empress does things with small knots, she won't get entangled with other men and even carry them into the city. This is definitely a rumor! "

"That may not be so!" At this moment, a girl dressed in yellow also came over.
