Quickly wear salted fish, she won by lying down

Because they were full of rage, but now the people from the second house had passed the imperial examination and became high-ranking officials whom they could neither approach nor offend, so they drove them away. Although the people from the first house were angry, they had no choice and had originally planned to leave.

As a result, when it came time for the palace's once-in-three-years beauty pageant, the original body said that she wanted to give it a try, so the people in the first house followed her and gave it a try. Needless to say, the result was a slap in the face.

The people in the second house heard about this and were ridiculed by them again.

So the original body's intention was very simple. She wanted to become a favored concubine, the unattainable favored concubine of the second house.

Now the people in the Second House say that they are the worst and drive them away, and they are completely at odds with each other. In the future, if she becomes a favorite concubine, she will scare the people in the Second House to death.

After seeing this world and the shameless faces of the people in the second house, Linlang felt a little angry, so she took on this task. She didn't have to worry about sleeping with the emperor in the future. If she couldn't accept it, the worst thing she could do was use illusion and not really sleep with him.

However, the original body's foundation was indeed a bit weak. Not to mention staying, it was estimated that he would not even be able to pass the first few levels.

In this dynasty's selection of girls from officials of a certain rank, just like the sons of officials of a certain rank could skip the scholar test and go directly to the juren test in the imperial examination, they could also skip the initial selection and go directly to the later items.

But the auditions for ordinary girls from the public are different.

There are six steps to selecting a concubine (the following content is from the Internet).

The first step is to hold public auditions and select 5,000 people.

The original body has already passed this level.

Since the original body dared to run for the election, it was natural that his appearance was acceptable, so he was accepted as soon as he signed up.

Of course, the main reason is that there are few people who actively sign up. When many people hear that the palace is going to select a concubine, they are so scared that they want to get married quickly.

This is also normal. After all, most people, as long as they are not stupid, know that once they enter the palace, few can climb up, and most of them sink to the bottom, and their lives are ruined like that.

Those who were selected to enter the palace had families that were at least well-off. The reason was very simple. Children raised in extremely poor families would be dark and thin, just like the original owner was before. How could officials report them?

Families with a moderate level of well-off status could marry their children off to families with similar or better conditions, which is better than sending them into the palace and never hearing from them again.

Therefore, there are few people who sign up voluntarily, and most of the time, officials register their names when they hear that a certain girl is pretty.

The second step is to enter the palace for preliminary selection. The candidates are divided into groups of 100 and are selected by the maids in the palace based on their height, weight, body shape, etc. Generally, 1,000 people are selected.

The original body has passed this step.

The original body did not pass the third step - re-selection.

This step is to select facial features, hair, skin, etc., and 2,000 people will be eliminated, leaving only 2,000 people for the final selection. The original person's facial features and hair were okay, but the skin was a bit dark, so he was eliminated.

In fact, Linlang felt that at this stage, the original body should give some money to the evaluating nanny, and she should be able to be selected. After all, in this kind of re-selection, unless one really wants to enter the palace, generally no one will give money, and they would rather return it. Those who are willing to give money will definitely be able to enter. After all, it is not easy to give money, so why not let people in?
The last three steps include selection, entering the palace, and on-the-job internship.

Let’s not talk about the last three steps for now, and just talk about the third step that the original body failed. Linlang already has a solution, which is to give those female officials some money.

However, if you want to pass the last three levels, especially the last one, just relying on giving money is definitely not enough, because in the end only fifty people will be selected to enter the palace. It is estimated that among the five thousand people, there must be more than fifty people who want to enter the palace. If all those who want to enter the palace give money, then just giving money will be meaningless. You must definitely improve in other aspects.

Therefore, Linlang had to restore her original body to its prime first. After all, her current appearance was not her original appearance, but the result of years of hard work. She was dark and thin, with rough skin, and her hair was not very black and shiny. She also had no curvy figure. With such conditions, it would be difficult for her to stay, let alone become a favorite concubine.

It was also simple to recover to her prime state. Linlang immediately took the gene repair fluid and drank some. She didn't drink it all. If she did, firstly, the change would be too big and she would feel a little uncomfortable. Secondly, it would also make people feel strange, wondering why she was like that when she went in and like that when she came out.

She drank a little every day and changed a little every day. Others would not find it strange, especially when they found out her background and discovered that she had lived a hard life before, so her body was not well-maintained. After she entered the palace, her food improved, her body improved, she became whiter and more beautiful. It was very normal.

Several rounds of selection will take a long time. She will change slowly, and by the final selection she should have changed enough to be eligible to stay in the palace.

After drinking some gene repair liquid, Linlang took out a makeup box from the space and put on some light makeup. Her original skin color was tanned due to working in the fields for many years, so even if she couldn't make herself beautiful, she could at least brighten her skin tone.

Soon the carriage entered the palace. The preliminary selection was not difficult because there were fixed standards, such as age, height, weight, etc. The age range was between thirteen and eighteen, and there were certain standards for height. Of course, due to different ages, the height was determined according to each age group. The younger the height, the less weight.

The original body met these rigid standards, so he stayed. Most of the people who were eliminated were not sad, after all, most people didn't want to enter the palace at all.

It was the same in this world. Linlang successfully passed the primary selection and entered the run-off.

This time is very fast, because the fifth checkpoint before entering the palace must be passed quickly. Unless there is a special reason, it must be completed in one day. Those who are not selected will be arranged to go home by the state governments.

The main reason is that once the day is over, there are too many people left and it is difficult for the palace to arrange accommodation, which is a bit troublesome.

For this stage, we entered the palace at about eight in the morning and came to a square in the palace. The female officials were tested in groups of one hundred. Because there was more than one female official - there were ten groups of female officials - there were fifty groups, and only five rounds were conducted. There were ten groups in one round, and it was over. It was about ten in the morning.

After entering the re-selection stage, Linlang had put on makeup, and her skin looked whiter and more delicate than before. If she still failed to pass the re-selection, she would have to give some money to those female officials.

In addition to checking facial features, hair, and skin, this level also asks everyone to introduce themselves in order to judge the women's voice, manners, and articulation.

However, she obviously didn't need to pay for this test, because after she put on makeup, she had passed the skin test. As for her facial features and hair, she had already passed the test.

As for the self-introduction, I don't know how the original person did, but Linlang passed it anyway. After all, such a small scene was not a big deal for her. She must have spoken clearly and would not be like some of the concubines who were so nervous that they stuttered when introducing themselves.

So, she just put on some makeup and spoke more clearly than her original self, and Linlang successfully passed the re-selection and entered the selection stage. (End of this chapter)
