After the first assistant's wife is reborn

The selection of concubines this time is not the usual mass audition. After the Ministry of Household Affairs issued documents, they were slowly selected from the county capitals and even the capital, and then went through layers of selection. There were hundreds of beautiful women.

Finally, at the palace, it will be the second round to the third round to be finalized.Pick out women with good looks and good character, that is to say, women with both talent and appearance are to be concubines,
This time the draft is very simple, just choose among the noble families in the capital and the young women from the families of the third-rank officials.

His Majesty's documents for concubine selection arrived at the household department, and the portraits of several famous ladies were sent to the palace. After screening, they entered the palace and passed the primary selection.

Originally, there were only about 20 boudoir ladies of suitable age participating in the election, but the aristocrats and their daughters were all eager to try when they heard that the new emperor was choosing a concubine, regardless of the beauty or beauty.

Not to mention that the new emperor was born with the appearance of a dragon and a phoenix, with a face like a crown jade, noble and unparalleled.

Let's talk about the empress alone in his harem, as for the palace lady who was named Baolin, everyone only regarded her as a nothingness.

Needless to say, the noble ladies of the capital flocked to her, wanting to enter the palace as a concubine.

Maybe, it won't be long before I become the most honorable woman in the Liang Kingdom—the Empress Empress!
Therefore, nearly forty beautiful girls rushed into the palace all at once to be selected.

In the end, according to the original meaning, ten beautiful women were selected to enter the palace as concubines.

It's just that the concubine's position is not high, and there are none of the four concubines, but it's not too low.

According to their family status, the ten beautiful women range from Zhaoyi of the third rank to Xiuyi of the third rank, Chongyi of the third rank of concubine, and Shuyi of the fourth rank.

The emperor must have considered who would be able to give birth to a prince in the future before being promoted to a concubine.

However, Gao Jingwei, the British prince who has been playing the concubine selection and jumping up and down, originally wanted to make a beautiful turnaround through the concubine selection, but he was humiliated.

There are five or six beautiful young ladies in the direct line and side branches of his Gao family, who were kicked back the moment they handed in the portraits.

None of them were looked down upon.

Isn't that hitting him in the face?

Originally, the Duke of England, who had been making wishful thinking, most wanted to send his daughter Gao Yuanyuan into the palace.

First, Gao Yuanyuan is just as old as a flower, and her beauty is not inferior to that of her aunt Gao Guifei. If it wasn't for the fact that the late Emperor was old and in poor health.He was also planning to send her into the palace to be favored by his aunt.

Gao Yuanyuan, like her aunt, is a noble daughter who has been carefully cultivated by the family since she was a child. After entering the palace, it goes without saying that she will be favored by the new emperor.

It is just around the corner for their Gao family to return to the pinnacle of power.

The second thing is of course that Gao Yuanyuan offended Princess Chen Yuan's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. The bad reputation was spread, and the marriage was difficult to discuss. Many children from well-matched families had no intention of marrying his Gao family.

In the end, of course, he was worried that Wei Ziqian, a popular person next to the powerful new emperor, would settle accounts afterwards.

It is said that Wei Ziqian, the newly powerful prince of the new Jin Dynasty who is also the chief assistant and occupies the position of prime minister, is the one who protects his shortcomings and loves his wife like a treasure.

When his own daughter offended his sweet wife, it happened that Wei Ziqian was not in Beijing when he went on an expedition.

After returning to Beijing this time, the first emperor passed away and then the new emperor took the throne, he probably didn't take this matter into consideration, if he was asked to take time off to deal with his daughter, he might lose her life.

Therefore, Gao Jingwei tried his best to encourage the selection of concubines for both his Gao family's future and his daughter's life.

However, he just fetched water from a bamboo basket in vain.

In the end, I made a wedding dress for someone else.

An important message released from this draft is also a fatal message, that is, his Gao family has really fallen out of favor.

Wanting to be like the first emperor when he was in power, by sending his daughter into the palace, the dream of restoring the glory of the Duke's mansion was shattered
Because of this, the Gao family fell from a first-class family to a third- and fourth-rate family.

However, is the Gao family someone who can easily admit defeat?
He is holding back his big move!

Besides, the new emperor Chen Xiao has never been a love brain, that's why even if he loves Cui Xin, he won't really be able to defend her like a jade.

Because the harem is not just the harem, every concubine in the harem represents the power of each family.

Many courtiers are already upset about favoring Cui Xin. If it is a true favorite, the new official will take office three times, and the new emperor may not be enough to suppress the doubts of the major families.

It's just that the draft can't be mixed, it has to be respectful and virtuous.

On the other hand, his lustful old father and the countless women in the harem, the first emperor was not a long-term lover, he fell in love with each other.

The once beloved women and children all fell to a tragic end because of the late emperor's high profile.

Therefore, the reason why Chen Xiao chose his concubine was to balance the power of the previous dynasty, to prolong the succession of the heirs, and to respect the emperor
There must be at least ten or eight concubines in the harem.

However, there are gains and losses, and Chen Xiao will also pay the price for his self-righteousness in the future.

After Chen Xiao went to the harem to pamper several concubines for a few days in succession, she rested for half a month without stepping into the harem again.

······
"What do you think of the palace?"

"The servant thinks that the palace is a very good place to go."

Chen Ling lost something in her palace, and when she turned back to look for it, she heard her conversation with the maid at the gate of the palace.

"Heh!" Cui Xin curled her lips into a sneer, and looked up at the window with cold eyes, "A big dye vat that can only eat people is nothing more than that in my eyes."

Chen Xiao stood behind the door without making a sound, listening quietly.

It's no wonder that when I see Zhen these days, I just deal with it calmly, with a perfunctory smile on my face.

It's like wearing a mask in front of me
Chen Xiao felt a sense of loss in his heart, and felt empty.

······
"Why are you worried, Your Majesty?" Wei Ziqian glanced at the absent-minded emperor across the way, and said that he was playing chess with him, but every time he ended up losing all the games, that's all, but this person refused to stop when he lost. Look at that It's no different from being angry.

Wei Ziqian thought to himself: How can I have the mind to spend time with you?The little wife who is pregnant with Liujia is still waiting for him to go back to accompany him.

Chen Xiao also felt bored, so she threw the flag in her hand into the chess box, rubbed her forehead, her voice was full of helplessness and exhaustion.

"Hey, are all women fickle?" Chen Xiao told his courtiers about the queen's changes in the past few days.

Thinking of these days, Cui Xin was alienated and polite to him, and the smile from the heart that he had at the beginning was gone.

There is a feeling of aggrieved in my heart.

I didn't expect the empress to be such a courageous character. It seems that the emperor has kicked the iron plate.

Wei Ziqian was dumbfounded for a moment, looked at the Ninety-Five Supreme Lord who was worried, and said with a chuckle: "Your Majesty doesn't know, often those women who look gentler on the surface are more arrogant, and it's a shame to be tough. The next policy is absolutely unacceptable.”

Hearing what he said, Chen Xiao put down her hands, sat up straight and looked at him, the corners of her lips tugged slightly: "I forgot, you are experienced."

The British prince who jumped up and down tried his best to gather for his concubine, but none of the five or six women in his family were selected.

What a slap in the face!
