"Wan'er, please wait a little longer, until after tonight"

Fan Xian recalled what he saw in the box, and his heart was suddenly filled with confidence.

Even if Uncle Wu Zhu and Si Gu Jian could not defeat Northern Qi's National Master Mu Sheng together, as long as he could hold the opponent back, he was confident that he could shoot him to death.

'No matter how powerful you are, how many bullets can you stop?'

And this is not an ordinary bullet, it is a bullet that can penetrate the armor of infantry fighting vehicles. An ordinary person would be shattered to pieces immediately if hit by one bullet.

No matter how powerful the Grand Master is, he is still a human being of flesh and blood. Fan Xian doesn't believe that he can stop his truth.

"Miss, it's getting late, we should wash up and change clothes."

The voice of the maid Xiaoying woke Fan Xian up. After taking a last look at the closed window, Fan Xian disappeared outside the palace wall in a flash.

At three quarters past noon, Lin Wan'er had already changed into the clothes of a concubine and followed the same batch of concubines to the Queen's Funing Palace for an audience.

She had been to Funing Palace many times, but before, she came to pay a visit to the Imperial Aunt as a junior of Princess Chen.

Nowadays, people would pay respects to the queen as concubines, or more commonly, as concubines would pay respects to the mistress.

"It's true that things in this world are unpredictable."

Lin Wan'er sighed secretly, and waited for her maid Xiaoying to brush off the snowflakes on her clothes before she stepped into the side hall.

Because there were too many newly promoted concubines, it would seem messy and inappropriate if they all went to meet the queen at once.

The empress then ordered the eunuchs from the Shangli Bureau to bring these concubines to a side hall first, and then to go to the emperor in groups of ten to pay homage.

When Lin Wan'er came in, the other new concubines had already arrived for a while.

Lin Wan'er took a quick look and saw that there were at least one hundred and twenty concubines in the side hall.

"With so many concubines, it would take Your Majesty more than four months just to favor one of them, right?"

Lin Wan'er secretly calculated that if she was lucky, she would not have to sleep with the emperor for three or four months, which made her feel a little relieved.

"I hope my luck isn't too bad."

"Wan'er!"

Just as Lin Wan'er was calculating the time she would sleep with the emperor, Fan Ruoruo squeezed in from somewhere.

"Ruoruo, you're here too." After seeing Fan Ruoruo, Lin Wan'er unconsciously thought of Fan Xian again.

Although the progress was not as fast as in the original novel, she had already developed a liking for Fan Xian. It was a pity that the two of them were not destined to be together.

"Wan'er, after you meet the Queen, don't go back to Chenqin Palace yet. Stay at my place tonight."

Fan Ruoruo kept in mind the task assigned to her by her brother Fan Xian, and stayed with Lin Wan'er, waiting for someone to take them out of the palace when the time was right.

Although I don’t know what my brother is going to do or when the time he mentioned will be, it’s always right to listen to him.

This is the belief and admiration that Fan Ruoruo has developed towards Fan Xian since she was a child. She blindly believes that nothing can defeat Fan Xian.

"Go to your place? Okay!" Lin Wan'er agreed without much thought.

Being in this palace that was once very familiar but now very strange, Lin Wan'er also hopes to stay with her familiar friends.

"And Ling'er, let's call her to come along." Lin Wan'er said as she looked around in the side hall and soon spotted Ye Ling'er.

The other person was leaning against a pillar in the corner, looking down at the ground, not knowing what he was thinking.

Then, without waiting for Fan Ruoruo's consent, Lin Wan'er took her hand and squeezed over there: "Ling'er! Ling'er!"

"Wan'er!" Ye Ling'er also smiled when she saw Lin Wan'er.

The three of them quickly got together and started chatting. With the company of their best friends, it seemed that even the sadness of entering the palace had dissipated a little.

The interaction between the three people also attracted the attention of a concubine who had a cold face and was surrounded by cold people.

Sang Wen looked at Lin Wan'er, Fan Ruoruo and Ye Ling'er who were holding hands and talking to each other, his eyes full of envy.

As a geisha, she was out of place among these concubines who came from powerful and noble families.

"Humph, we are all concubines from now on. You look down on me, but I look down on you too!"

Sang Wen secretly encouraged herself. Unlike Lin Wan'er and the other two, Sang Wen had no resistance to becoming a concubine.

From a geisha to a concubine, it was a huge step forward.

Otherwise, given her background, the most she could do in the future is become a concubine of a powerful family, or save enough money to find an honest man.

Now that I have become a concubine, what else is there to be dissatisfied about?

After about an incense stick of time, the eunuch in charge of ceremonies came in to summon the concubines to the emperor. About an hour later, all the concubines had finished their audiences, and everyone dispersed in an orderly manner.

Xingqing Hall, inside the imperial study.

After Mu Sheng pretended to look through a few memorials, he casually threw them to Si Lili beside him to deal with.

"It's almost noon. I have to go see the new concubines who have entered the palace. I'll leave these trivial matters of state affairs to you."

Upon hearing this, Si Lili couldn't help but roll her eyes at him.

Thinking back to the time when she was full of high spirits and led Wang Laoshi and others, she planned to cooperate with Li Yunrui in the rebellion, kill Emperor Qing and throw Nanqing into complete chaos.

But when the matter came to an end, they were told that their imperial master had already crushed Emperor Qing into a ball.

He even pretended to be the other party and stirred up trouble in the harem of Qing Kingdom.

This guy first messed with the empress and the concubines, but he was not satisfied and started to hold a beauty pageant to mess with the women of the officials' families.

This kind of outrageous operation really makes Si Lili speechless.

She even felt a little disappointed. Mu Sheng had disturbed so many people, so why didn't he disturb her?

As a result, in the entire Qing Kingdom’s harem, she, the courtesan of Zuixianju, is the most innocent.

"Your Majesty, I obey your command! You may go with peace of mind!" Si Lili stood up and, imitating the manner of a civil servant, bowed to Mu Sheng in a serious manner.

She was wearing a slim-fitting long dress. The silky and soft material made the clothes fit her body tightly under the action of gravity.

It outlines a straight back and a plump curve like a peach at the end.

As a result, the action she made not only did not look respectful and dignified like an official in the imperial court, but instead looked more like an ancient-style avi shot by a certain media outlet.

"Foolish little goblin, do you think this kind of enchantment can work on me?"

Mu Sheng looked at Si Lili with disdain, and only started to give instructions after she stood up.

"I think that old fellow Chen Pingping will make some moves today. You better be careful and don't get into any trouble."

The main reason why he made this basis was not Chen Pingping but Fan Xian. He didn't believe that with the arrogance of a time traveler, he would watch his goddess being tossed around and cooked until she was burnt on the outside and tender on the inside.

Whenever Fan Xian moves, Wu Zhu will move, and whenever Wu Zhu moves, Chen Pingping will have no choice but to move.

“Your Majesty, rest assured. Thanks to the treason case at the Xiyuan Hunting Ground, most of the confidants of Emperor Qing, the eldest princess, the crown prince, and the second prince are dead.

Wang Laoshi and others have fully accepted their power these days. If the Supervisory Council makes any move, we will be the first to know. "

Si Lili said with confidence that this was also what she admired about Mu Sheng, it was obviously a foolish approach, but it achieved results beyond imagination.

"Well, I'll go!"

After saying this, Mu Sheng left and went to the harem accompanied by several eunuchs.

"Your Majesty, the new concubines who have entered the palace live here."

"Oh!" Mu Sheng looked at the buildings in front of him, and suddenly an idea popped up in his mind, so he gave a few instructions to the eunuch beside him.

Soon, an ox cart appeared in front of him. "Not bad, not bad!" Mu Sheng walked around the ox cart and was very satisfied: "In the past, Sima Yan rode a sheep cart to seek the emperor's favor. Now I have my ox cart to visit the emperor. It is our responsibility to pass on the excellent culture!"

Mu Sheng affirmed his efforts in inheriting intangible cultural heritage. It's a pity that people in this world don't know who Sima Yan is and cannot understand his greatness.

Then Mu Sheng jumped onto the ox cart and said, "Let's go! Go!"

Following his shout, the old ox in front of the ox cart slowly moved and pulled the cart towards the buildings in front.

The sight of Emperor Qing riding an ox cart to select concubines for his bed soon attracted the attention of a group of new concubines.

"His Majesty!"

"I see you, Your Majesty!"

Whenever the ox cart passed by a palace, the concubines inside would bow at the door.

After the ox cart leaves, they will look around curiously, wanting to see where the ox cart will eventually stop.

Evian Palace, the main palace.

This is Fan Ruoruo’s bedroom. A concubine whose rank is lower than hers also lives in the side hall.

It was said that she was originally a singing girl in a brothel, but Fan Ruoruo didn't know much about her. Anyway, she would leave the palace tonight, so she didn't want to get to know her.

"Miss, ma'am!"

Just as Lin Wan'er, Fan Ruoruo and the other two were chatting in the bedroom, the maid Xiaoying suddenly ran in in a hurry.

"What happened? Why are you shouting and screaming?" Lin Wan'er said angrily.

Fan Ruoruo and Ye Ling'er also looked at her curiously.

"Miss, Miss Ruoruo, Miss Ling'er." Xiaoying took a breath and said, "It's His Majesty. His Majesty came to the harem in an ox cart."

"Ox cart?"

"Your Majesty came to the harem in a bullock cart?"

"What kind of trick is this?"

The three women asked in surprise, all confused by Emperor Qing's actions.

"I heard from them that His Majesty is selecting the concubines who will sleep with him tonight. The concubine who will sleep with him tonight will be chosen at the gate of the palace where the ox cart stops."

"What? Your Majesty lets a cow choose the concubine. What does he think of us?" Fan Ruoruo was the first to express her dissatisfaction.

The other two had similar attitudes.

Each of the three of them was a rich lady who was pampered in the palm of one's hand, but now they were being picked and picked like goods, and it was a beast at that.

Basically this beast is the emperor. No, this person is the emperor, but the three women still felt humiliated.

“Hopefully it won’t stop here.”

"It shouldn't happen. There are so many concubines. They won't be so unlucky."

"Too."

Unlike the three women who were angry when they heard the news, Sang Wen in the side hall immediately became interested after hearing the news.

Her background was the worst among all the concubines, and she was looked down upon by the other concubines. Even the person in the main hall next door, she hadn't met him for such a long time.

Sang Wen knew very well that if he continued like this, his life in the harem would not be easy.

After all, jealousy and competition are inevitable everywhere, and she has seen a lot of such things in the brothel.

In addition to his solid singing and dancing skills, Sang Wen was also very familiar with these things in order to make a name for himself.

"Don't you all look down on my background? Then I must be the first to gain the favor of His Majesty.

In this way, Your Majesty will have a deep impression of me. I, Sang Wen, will climb to the top step by step, step by step!
No one can look down on me anymore! I, Sang Wen, will definitely be at the top of the harem!"

At this moment, Sang Zhaogao Wen awakened.

"Hurry, go to the small kitchen in the back hall and get a jar of salt! Be quick, okay?" After Sang Wen instructed the maid, he began to tidy up his appearance in front of the mirror.

When she had finished tidying up, the maid came in with a jar of salt.

"Sang Wen, you will definitely succeed!"

After encouraging himself, Sang Wen grabbed two handfuls of salt from the salt jar in the maid's arms and put them in his sleeves, then walked out of the hall with a dignified manner.

"Let's go!"

The maid hurried to follow.

"Put down the salt shaker!"

Sang Wen glanced at his clumsy maid and couldn't help but roll his eyes.

After the maid ran back and put down the salt jar, the master and servant slowly came to the door of the palace.

Sang Wen slowly walked around the gate a few times, quietly sprinkled the salt in his hand, walked a few steps to the middle of the road, sprinkled some salt as well, and then walked to the front of the palace gate and stood still.

After a while, a ox cart appeared in Sang Wen's sight.

"Don't stop, don't stop, don't stop in front!" Sang Wen stared at the direction of the ox cart and prayed silently.

Perhaps God heard her prayers, and the ox cart did not stop until it reached the gate of Evian Temple.

The old ox pulling the cart seemed to smell something, slowly stopped, then began to lick the ground, and walked step by step towards the gate of Evian Palace.

"It's done!" Sang Wen was overjoyed.

Huh?
Mu Sheng noticed something strange about Lao Niu at a glance, but didn't say anything.

After all, he didn't say that cheating was not allowed, and he was planning to stop here anyway.

After all, if he doesn't stimulate the protagonist, then wouldn't it be a waste of time for him to go to this talent show?

After getting off the ox cart, Mu Sheng patted the old ox's head and instructed the eunuchs behind him: "I will stay here today. Take the chief ox down and take good care of him."

Then he lifted Sang Wen's chin, put his arm around her waist while she looked shy, and walked towards the inner hall.

"Your Majesty, I live in the side hall."

"What side hall? Let's go to the main hall. Today, all of you will serve me together!"

In the Supervisory Office, Fan Xian was wiping the weapon in his hand carefully with a rag.

The weapon is dark, thick, and made of fine steel. Even if you just look at it quietly, you can feel the invisible murderous aura emanating from it.

"Just wait, Northern Qi Imperial Master! You will definitely pay the price for your actions!"

"Once this matter is resolved, I will confess my feelings to Wan'er and tell her that I have fallen in love with her since the first time we met."

"Wan'er must like me too."

Just as Fan Xian was immersed in his own fantasy, he was awakened by the sound of hurried footsteps.

"Oh no, oh no, Master Fan!" Wang Qinian ran over in a panic.

"Your Majesty, oh no, that Northern Qi imperial master, he rode a bullock cart to Miss Fan's Evian Palace to pay her a visit."

"What?" Upon hearing the bad news, Fan Xian felt as if his head had been chopped off by an axe: "When did this happen?"

"It was already more than half an hour ago."

“No, no, no.”
