The end of the Ming Dynasty swept the world

Chapter 818 The most disobedient girl
After walking out of the Compassionate Ning Palace, Wang Xiangyao's mind turned rapidly.

He first came to Shangyi Bureau, found a female officer and asked, "Show me the roster of selected female officers."

Soon to see: Songjiang Xu Ying, 14 years old, good at poetry, smart.

This is the comment written when the place was selected, followed by her background and origin.

Wang Xiangyao immediately saw the clue, this person should be related to the queen or the queen's younger brother.

Because of Ding Yi's reform, six female officials will be selected in the palace this time.

However, a total of sixty women were sent up from various places below, and the women who were sent were all between 13 and 16 years old. They were carefully selected regardless of their body shape and appearance, and all of them were from wealthy businessmen and officials.

In particular, the news that the imperial court wanted to set up land to be distributed to the mu, and the taxation by measuring the land was known all over the world. The rich merchants in the south of the Yangtze River wanted to send their daughters to the palace, hoping that there would be someone who could talk to them in the future.

Now it is one out of ten elections, and the competition is very fierce. Those who lose the election can stay in the palace as maids if they want to, or they can go back if they don’t want to. According to Wang Xiangyao’s experience, most of the people who are willing to enter the palace are not willing. go back.

He was still staring at the roster in a daze, and a little eunuch beside him whispered, "Song Lian begs to see his godfather."

He turned his head to look, this is his godson Wang Qide, who was only in his teens, Wang Xiangyao accepted him as his godson because he had a good relationship with Zhong Xian before.

"Let's go." Wang Xiangyao took Wang Qide to the Xiaoluan Hall in the north of Renshou Palace. The sixty girls who entered the palace this time were all arranged in Renshou Palace.

It was impossible to put it in the past, but now there are few people in the palace, and Ding Yi doesn't follow the rules, and he can be released wherever it is empty.

The two of them passed directly through the corridor west of Renshou Palace, and they could enter a large courtyard west of Xiaoluan Hall.

As soon as I walked in, I heard it was very noisy inside. Sixty girls wearing uniform blue dresses were queuing up.

Song Lian was in his 20s, and in Ding Yi's palace, he was considered an older eunuch.

He is the person in charge here, conducting posture and etiquette training for newcomers to the palace.

"Eunuch Wang." Song Lian ran over immediately, with a charming smile on his face.

"Speak from the side." Without further ado, Wang Xiangyao led him eastward, and the two hurried into a wing on the east side.

Wang Qide closed the door and carefully stood outside the door to guard.

Song Lian took out two pieces of beautiful jade from his sleeve, one square and one round.

"This is Chen Xiaocha from the Chen Mansion in Suzhou, and this is Qian Muhua from Jiaxing—"

Wang Xiangyao used to take it with a smile, but this time he didn't take it right away.

"Which number is this?" Wang Xiangyao asked in a deep voice.

"Ninth, tenth." Song Lian said.

"Hey." Wang Xiangyao frowned, and he walked around with his hands behind his back: "You tell them, there is no guarantee."

"Chen Xiaocha wants to see the emperor."

"That's impossible." Wang Xiangyao raised his voice, then quickly lowered it, his face turned pale: "You treat me as——"

I am not a close friend of the emperor.

Song Lian pointed to Wang Qide outside.

Wang Qide and Zhong Xian have a good relationship.

Wang Xiangyao shook his head like a wave drum, this relationship has to be reserved for critical moments, he knows who the emperor is, he must not be involved in this kind of thing, and he can't be involved.

Song Lian looked a little disappointed, and Wang Xiangyao asked strangely, "How much?"

Song Lian stretched out his hand, showing five fingers.

"Five hundred?" Wang Xiangyao stared, so much for a dog?
"Five thousand." Song Lian smiled wryly.

"Hiss." Wang Xiangyao gasped.

He thought for a while, and took the two pieces of jade from Song Lian's hands, but felt that his hands were heavy.

"It's still not guaranteed." Wang Xiangyao said in a deep voice, "I'll talk about it after I read it."

"En." Song Lian was thoughtful.

"Who is Xu Ying?" Wang Xiangyao asked suddenly.

Song Lian froze for a moment, and his expression became strange.

Seeing his expression, Wang Xiangyao also frowned: "What's wrong?"

Song Lian led him to open the door, and the two stood at the door, looking at Yingying Yanyan in the yard, he whispered: "The little guy in the east is the most disobedient."

Wang Xiangyao looked slowly, and saw a petite girl standing and gesticulating talking to the other two girls.

The two girls were a little restrained, standing motionless, staring at her and talking alone.

Xu Ying was dancing with her hands and feet, her eyebrows were flying, but she didn't think this place was a palace.

Wang Xiangyao watched it for a while, and found that Xu Ying's appearance was indeed quite beautiful among all the girls. Although she couldn't rank in the top three, there was no problem in the top ten.

It looks a bit like Ruan Zongbing's wife, Wang Xiangyao seems to see something.

"Who is Chen Xiaocha?" Wang Xiangyao asked again, "There is also Qian Muhua."

Song Lian pointed to Chen Xiaocha.

Wang Xiangyao's eyes lit up. Chen Xiaocha is tall, the tallest among all the girls. She has a good figure. You can clearly see the bulging collar on her upper body. Compared with other girls, it is very obvious. The key point is that she is also quite beautiful. Among the women, they can definitely be ranked in the top three.

"This is Qian Muhua?" Wang Xiangyao shook his head when he saw Qian Muhua. It was really ordinary, and he didn't know how the local government dared to send it here.

In fact, Qian Muhua is pretty good looking, but the sixty beauties selected this time are all carefully selected, and they are really inferior by others.

Wang Xiangyao took a few glances at them and found that Xu Ying was really lively, and she was the one who talked the most.

He pulled Song Lian's ear, and Song Lian quickly listened carefully: "Xu Ying."

Only said two words.

Then he looked at Song Lian seriously.

Song Lian quickly understood, and nodded heavily, that's it, this girl is a must, and there are only five places left.

But this little girl is not very obedient, Song Lian secretly complained.

After Wang Xiangyao left Renshou Palace, he was about to leave the palace.

After Ding Yi settled in the palace, it was much more convenient and relaxed to enter and leave the palace.

The gate of the palace is usually closed at about six o'clock in the second half of the day, and people in the palace can't go out if there is nothing to do, but if someone outside the palace asks to see Ding Yi, as long as he goes to the gate of the palace to give a pass, he can usually be summoned.

During the daytime, all the female officials in the palace, such as Shang Gong and Shang Si, can come in and out at will, but if they need to report something, they can ask Su Yue to get a sign.

The eunuchs need to ask Wang Xiangyao to get a sign when they go out of the palace, so it is very convenient for him to go out of the palace by himself.

Wang Xiangyao soon came to the gate of the palace, and the guard called out, "Eunuch Wang."

Wang Xiangyao greeted them politely, first handed over the sign, and then wrote down his name and reason for leaving the palace on a piece of paper beside him.

"Private affairs." Wang Xiangyao wrote three words.

Then some guards searched him and found two jade pendants. The guards didn't ask him any questions, and took the jade pendants to a nearby hut that had just been built.

There was a female painter in the room who simply sketched the two jade pendants and returned them to Wang Xiangyao in less than 2 minutes.

As long as the two jade pendants are not lost in the palace, no one cares about Wang Xiangyao.

Wang Xiangyao took the jade pendant and left with a smile.

There is a silk and cotton shop in the capital, which is opened by the Chen family in Suzhou.

He came to the door with the jade pendant, and the shopkeeper who received him respectfully led him to the backyard. After receiving the jade pendant, he asked someone to roll out a car: "There are a lot of things, do you need to help you take them home?"

When Wang Xiangyao saw it, hissed, it was a full 1 taels of silver, and his legs trembled for a while.

Fortunately, he has houses both inside and outside the palace, so he hurriedly said, "Yes."

Then Wang Xiangyao went to another shop, and the Qian family in Jiaxing was a little stingy and gave 1000 taels of silver.

Of course, Wang Xiangyao accepted all the orders, and then went home happily.

Ding Yi rewarded him with his house in the capital because he also has a wife.

This woman was still his wife before entering the palace.

After returning home, his wife Yu welcomed him into the house.

Seeing Mrs. Yu, Wang Xiangyao was stunned for a moment. He was very happy just now, but suddenly became irritable.

Yu married him at the age of 13, but on the day they got married, Wang Xiangyao actually drank too much, and ended up fighting with the villagers.

After waking up, Wang Xiangyao was angry and regretful, and almost wanted to commit suicide, but fortunately he was persuaded by Yu Shi.

In order to heal the injury, it became more and more difficult for the family. In the end, there was no other way, and Wang Xiangyao decided to enter the palace.

Before entering the palace, he persuaded Yu Shi to marry another, but Yu Shi refused.

Every time he sees Yu Shi, Wang Xiangyao has a special feeling in his heart.

Mrs. Yu is only in her 20s, because her family is relatively affluent now, her life is good, her skin is well maintained, and her skin is very tender. Wang Xiangyao, who has just seen 60 girls, took a closer look at his wife and felt that his wife was at least among the [-] people. If you are younger, it is no problem to rank in the top fifteen.

"Why so much money?" Yu Shi noticed that Wang Xiangyao had been staring at him, his face flushed slightly: "Your Majesty hates greedy ink, you have to be careful."

"I'm not greedy for public money, but someone else gave it to me. It doesn't count." Wang Xiangyao laughed.

When he arrived at his yard, he found that there were fewer servants and maids in the house.

"Hey, what about Ah Qiang and the others?"

"Your Majesty reduces the servants and maids of the ministers. As a close servant, you must set an example. Two girls are enough for the family." Yu Shi is very conscious of the overall situation.

"Some jobs have to be done by men." There is an old servant in Wang Xiangyao's family, named A Qiang, a dumb man in his 50s, who does a good job.

"Ah Qiang is also getting old, and now there is no heavy work at home, and we can do it ourselves."

Wang Xiangyao felt something was wrong, and wanted to find a male servant, but he was afraid that his wife would be killed, so he said, "It's up to you."

Wang Xiangyao didn't go back to the palace today, because tomorrow is a five-day and two-day rest day, not only the ministers, but also the eunuchs and female officials in their palace can rest.

Yu Shi leaned against him tightly at night, bursts of fragrance wafted into his nostrils, Wang Xiangyao almost raised his hand, but put it down several times, feeling extremely painful in his heart.

Early the next morning, someone knocked on the door.

It turned out to be Zhou Zhong, a scholar of the Hanlin Academy.

Zhou Zhong would never look him in the eye before, so I don't know how to find out his address.

Wang Xiangyao was very strange, but still very polite.

"Master Zhou."

"Hello, my lord."

Zhou Zhong was very spooky, and he even wore a hat, probably because he was afraid that others would see him coming to the eunuch's house.

He quickly dodges into the yard.

Then a woman followed behind him.

Wang Xiangyao was slightly moved when he saw this woman, what a beautiful girl, no, mother-in-law.

The woman looked like she was in her twenties, with a light body and a beautiful appearance. Compared with the Chen Xiaocha I saw yesterday, she didn't look much better.

The key point is that Chen Xiaocha and the others are still young, and this woman looks very mature and temperamental.
