Counting on your fingers, the fifth marriage is coming

Chapter 205: Palace Selection (I)

At the first quarter of the morning, the sound of bells and chimes rang out, breaking through the sky and startling the dewdrops on the green leaves of the apricot trees.

The palace door slowly opened. Noble men from wealthy families and handsome men from the common people were dressed in luxurious and exquisite clothes, in black, white, blue, purple, pink, blue and green, just like the flowers blooming in the garden in spring, each of them had a dream and a noble demeanor.

The eunuch held up the book and announced the names, and those who were called responded to show that they were present and not absent.

These palace selections are made by His Majesty himself. If you are chosen and your name is included in the list, you will be able to bid farewell to the old world and start a new life.

Therefore, those who had finally passed three levels and defeated six generals to enter the final round of selection couldn't help but feel a hint of tension between their brows. The drumbeat of fate was getting more and more intense, and the atmosphere was as heavy as lead.

But some people feel that they are not competitive enough, so they actively engage in interpersonal climbing and hope to get something powerful.

The man next to her has long legs, broad shoulders and a narrow waist, a perfect body, and handsome, three-dimensional facial features. He is definitely the strongest competitor for the position of concubine.

"I see that you have an extraordinary bearing and handsome appearance. If you can achieve great success in the future..."

"What does it have to do with you?"

"Uh……"

The man turned around and said the same thing again, "My dear brother, I see that you have extraordinary features, which are invaluable. If you are lucky enough to rise to a higher position today, please don't forget us..."

"What does it have to do with me?"

"Uh……"

As expected, they are the future masters of palace fighting. They all have difficult personalities and are full of arrogance and prejudice. After all, all roses have thorns.

Since flattery doesn't help you build relationships, you can only use other means to get closer to each other, such as getting together to chat about other people's gossip.

He also inquired about some news in private, so he whispered to his attendants: "Brothers, I heard that there are a few among us who were engaged to His Majesty in the folk, but were abandoned in the end. Those few were forced to come to the Holy Capital with the engagement documents to file a lawsuit. Do you know who it is?"

The handsome men around him all looked strange when they heard this.

"I do know some inside information. Since Master Xie and His Majesty haven't arrived yet, would you like me to talk to you about it?"

He winked and looked quite proud.

A man in a moon-white robe, standing proudly like a green bamboo, glanced at him sideways. His face was like a carefully carved jade, with cold lines and sword-like eyebrows flying into his temples. He had the aura of a majestic mountain, and a kind of arrogance and dominance that made him naturally stand above the crowd.

"Since you know who it is, why are you still telling us?"

The man was stunned. He didn't quite understand what was meant by this. "What's the connection between the two? I actually only know of five people. I heard that their backgrounds are not simple. However, I don't think they have any competitiveness. After all, His Majesty is unwilling to fulfill the marriage contract with them and even refuses to give them a concubine position. I guess there's nothing special about these five people."

"So do you think I'm competitive?"

A lazy and teasing voice sounded nearby, and a charming face approached. His peach blossom eyes were slightly raised, and the depths of his eyes were dark and dangerous, hiding endless charm and unruly.

The man took a deep breath and stepped back, feeling his face burning.

"This brother is so... outstanding, why do you have to ask when you already know the answer?"

There is a kind of person whose temperament makes men and women unconsciously attracted to his charm, but at the same time they will feel uneasy because of the dangerous aura he exudes.

"what about me?"

The corners of the boy's mouth slightly raised, revealing a row of neat, white teeth. That smile was like the warm sunshine of spring, instantly dispelling the gloom.

The man looked at them and laughed dryly with an unhappy heart: "Brothers are always popular, why make fun of me." "What about them?" The tall and strong man in the moon-white robe spoke.

The other two people he indicated were humble gentlemen who seemed to have walked out of an ancient painting. They had a handsome face and skin as white as porcelain. They seemed to be surrounded by a layer of warm light that warmed people's hearts. They were calm but restless.

The other one wore a fu hat and his white sleeves fluttered in the wind, without a trace of worldly air. His face was clear and sharp, as if he was the incarnation of a spirit creature from a mountain stream, with a kind of pure and refined charm that was hard to find in this worldly world. His features were clear yet soft, his eyebrows were drooping, and his long eyelashes cast a fan-shaped shadow in the sunlight.

man:"……"

Each one is so excellent that the other one is better than the other. How should he evaluate them?
Isn't this just asking for trouble?

If you don't want to chat, just keep silent. There's no need to be so irritating.

The bright and beautiful boy raised his eyebrows, and his fluffy hair lifted up a few strands playfully, swaying with his movements: "Didn't you say that there's nothing special about us? Why are you speechless again now?"

The man was stunned.

He stammered, "You, you are... stop kidding... how is this possible... I, I..."

"I'm."

He pointed at four people one by one and said, "They are the same. The five of us are the fiancés that His Majesty has abandoned."

Chi Jiangdong's voice was not small, so in addition to the shocked man, the handsome men sitting nearby could not avoid hearing some of what he said.

They were originally very curious about where the "protagonist" who caused such a stir in the clan house was hiding. They thought that these five people would keep a low profile and remain silent, but they never expected that they would be so outspoken and did not seem to want to hide anything at all.

What they didn't expect was that... these five people were so outstanding, which made their previous private ridicule and mockery of them and their belittling of their self-confidence seem particularly ridiculous.

Nangong Fei now goes by the alias Luo Lixi, a man with good looks but a feminine and eccentric personality. He entered the palace not only for Prince Shou, but also for himself.

After he glanced at the five people, he secretly observed the others.

Nangong Fei had a hunch in his heart that Huai Gu must have come as well, but he didn't know what his current identity was.

Nangong Yu also successfully advanced. He was very low-key, restraining all his brilliance and not competing with anyone.

He knew that he must not become the target of public criticism before entering the final moment. His identity could not withstand scrutiny and his origins were a secret that could not be told.

Like now, when everyone was curious about His Majesty's fiancés, he just glanced at them, then lowered his head, his mind wandering.

He thought that the Lord of Qihe City and his adopted daughter must have arrived in Shengjing long ago. Unfortunately, he had no ability to find out their itinerary, and he didn't know if they had been summoned. If so...

Whether they will have the chance to run into each other, as long as they meet again, he will definitely be able to recognize the ancient jade and whether it is his former youngest sister.

While everyone was confused, the emperor's entourage came from afar. The palace servants immediately instructed them on their manners and etiquette, and they must not lose their manners or break the rules in front of the emperor.

The atmosphere of tension, anticipation and excitement was suddenly raised, and everyone's heart was tense. They didn't dare to look up.

"Silence, His Majesty has arrived~"

The eunuchs filed out one after another, and two rows of guards dressed in dark tights, with long swords at their waists, escorted a figure wearing a bright golden crown and dragon robe to sit on the dragon throne.

Master Xie, the chief eunuch, the Ministry of Rites and related personnel also accompanied him.

A group of handsome men walked forward in unison, with slow and firm steps, bowed down and shouted "Long live the emperor".
