Chapter 125 Who is the Fisherman
Qin Shuhuang raised her eyebrows, the princess regent stared at Concubine Liu Gui in disbelief, she gritted her teeth and said, "Concubine Liu, have you forgotten what we said before?"

Concubine Liu Gui smiled lightly, "As people get older, their memory is not very good. I don't remember what the princess said to me before."

"you!"

So next, whenever Qin Shuhuang raised the sign "Luo", Concubine Liu Gui followed suit and voted out all the people the Princess Regent wanted to elect.

The princess regent was so angry that she wanted to shake her face and leave on the spot. She was about to stand up when Shao Gong next to her reminded her in a low voice, "Princess, so many beautiful women are watching. If it spreads, it may not be good."

The Princess Regent was about to stand up when she suddenly froze.

She tightly clutched the handkerchief in her hand, recalling Shao Gongzheng's words in her mind.

The show girls who came to participate in the election all had some status, and some were even relatives of officials from three provinces and six ministries.

Today she took the position of chief official in the primary election. If the general election fails, it will lose the face of her husband, the regent, and the officials of the third and sixth departments will definitely be dissatisfied with her.

Concubine Liu Gui did not sit in the main seat, but was just a foil.

Qin Shuhuang's reputation has been bad since she married into the Gu family. Adding something more to her reputation will have no impact on her.

She is the only one who suffers from this!
The princess regent looked at Qin Shuhuang with dissatisfaction, her eyes turned cold. It turned out that the purpose of Qin Shuhuang's sudden break-in to disrupt the general election was this!
She can't do what she wants!

Anyway, these beautiful girls are bright and dark, and [-]% of them are arranged by her. Even if Qin Shuhuang knows, she will not know everything. She has nothing to worry about.

The originally angry Princess Regent suddenly calmed down and smiled leisurely at Qin Shuhuang and Princess Liu Gui.

Concubine Liu Gui frowned.

Qin Shuhuang feigned embarrassment and twitched the corners of her mouth, as if her purpose had really been seen through by the Princess Regent.

Soon it was Xue Ruzhen's turn.

She showed off flowers.

Qin Shuhuang raised the wooden sign for "Middle", the Princess Regent raised the sign for "Luo" as expected, and Princess Liu Gui and Qin Shuhuang generally held up the sign for "Middle".

Just like that, the primary election for the general election ended, and twenty outstanding girls were selected.

Disrupted by Qin Shuhuang, only half of the twenty beautiful ladies were from the Regent Princess. Among them, Xue Ruzhen was Qin Shuhuang's favorite, and the remaining nine were secretly from Concubine Liu Gui.

The snipe and the clam were fighting, and Concubine Liu Gui thought she had become the fisherman.

After the general election, Concubine Liu Gui was in a good mood, she stood up, "The matter is over, and I am tired, so I will take my leave first."

The princess regent snorted coldly and led the people away first.

Soon, only Qin Shuhuang and Shao Gongzheng were left in the main hall of Yuzhao Palace.

Qin Shuhuang looked at Shao Gongzheng, "I haven't seen him for many years. I didn't expect that Shao Gongzheng hasn't changed at all."

Shao Gong, who already had gray hair on his sideburns, bowed respectfully to Qin Shuhuang, "Your Highness is joking, my minister is getting old, but His Highness has changed a lot."

Qin Shuhuang turned to look at the entrance of Yuzhao Palace and laughed, "Does Gong Zheng think this palace has changed for the better or for the worse?"

After finishing speaking, before Shao Gong could reply, Qin Shuhuang had already taken people away, so there was no such perverse and unreasonable appearance in front of the Princess Regent before.

Seeing Qin Shuhuang's straight back as he left, Shao Gongzheng was stunned for a moment.

After leaving the main hall of Yuzhao Palace and returning to the side hall where the Princess Regent rested, the Princess Regent kicked over the incense burner.

"What a Qin Shuhuang, what a Liu Kejun! This princess is not playing with you!" The regent princess said angrily.

The personal nurse next to her immediately helped the Princess Regent to sit aside and made Longjing tea for her herself.

After doing this, the nanny said: "Princess, from what I see, what matters now is not the eldest princess, but Concubine Liu Gui."

The regent princess looked up at her confidant nanny.

Mammy knew it was the master who asked her to continue.

She said: "Didn't the concubine notice that nine of the beautiful women selected today are concubine Liu Gui? I heard that the eldest princess had a big fight with the emperor in Funing Palace before coming. The eldest princess was not kept for dinner, so it can be seen that the relationship between siblings is getting worse. The eldest princess only prefers Miss Xue alone. This is a well-known fact. Since the emperor and his sister have a falling out, the most unlikely person to choose is Miss Xue. Among the remaining people, almost half of the emperor will choose Dowager Liu Gui, and what we should guard against now is Dowager Liu Gui."

The regent princess was momentarily angered by Qin Shuhuang's arrogant behavior, and she didn't know that Qin Shuhuang had quarreled with Qin Shumin before.

Now that I calm down and think about it again, Mammy is right.

She secretly gritted her teeth. Liu Kejun wanted to cross Chencang secretly, so he had to ask her if she was willing!

The regent princess narrowed her eyes, "There are still five days before the final election, and you order people to wipe out all Liu Kejun's people."

"Yes, princess."

Five days, there are many reasons that can be used, and it is not difficult for her to let the nine beautiful girls quit.

Not long after Qin Shuhuang left, a court lady quickly caught up with her, "Gong Zheng, this is given to you by the servants of the eldest princess."

Shao Gongzheng was stunned for a moment, then took the purse from the little maid.

The purse was opened, and it was a household registration certificate of a "female household".

Shao Gongzheng was sent into the palace by the Shao family as a female official when she was a teenager. The Shao family kept squeezing her in order to obtain more benefits.

When Shao Gong was old enough to leave the palace, the Shao family would not let her leave the palace to marry, but let her continue to work as an errand in the palace to support the family.

Later, she grew older and was completely past the marriageable age. Because Qin Shuhuang was kidnapped by the eunuch and implicated, she was demoted to the lowest palace maid. She had no use value to the Shao family.

So the Shao family let her go out of the palace to be a concubine of the honorable family, to help educate the young master and young lady.

Shao Gongzheng had despaired and hated the Shao family for a long time, and would rather be the most miserable and tiring low-level palace maid than leave the palace.

She was courageous, intelligent, and cautious, and she gradually became a female official again, and in recent years she became a palace official.

If the Shao family came forward again, she could refuse some things, but she couldn't refuse some things even if she wanted to.

Her wish is to completely sever ties with the Shao family and start her own business.

But Shao Gongzheng's parents are still alive, and the laws don't allow her to do this. She can't do it alone.

Now that Qin Shuhuang has realized her dream wish, how can she not be shocked and moved.

Shao Gong was shaking his hands and stuffing this certificate of household registration back into his purse.

After a long time, she finally calmed down her emotions. She called the maid beside her and said, "Give Concubine Gu the new thimble I got two days ago."

Gu Yuling just became a female official, and now she is on duty at the Shangyi Bureau.

The emperor was about to prepare a wedding uniform, and it was time for the season to change. The clothing department was the busiest. Many female officials and embroiderers made clothes all day long, and their needle-holding hands were blistered.

After interfering with the general election, the most important thing for Qin Shuhuang today is over.

On the way back home, Rui He asked worriedly: "Your Highness, you gave Shao Gongzheng something, will Shao Gongzheng really stand by your side?"

Qin Shuhuang shook his head, "There is no need for her to stand by my side, as long as she takes care of Yu Ling a little bit."

It is not that simple for Gu Yuling to excel among female officials.

After returning from the palace, Qin Shuhuang did not go directly back to Zhenbei Palace, but to the eldest princess's palace.

As soon as he entered the mansion, Qin Shuhuang learned great news!
