Chapter 228

Startled, Zhuge Ying said: "Your injury hasn't healed yet, there is no need to be in such a hurry, the long journey is exhausting, you must not be able to bear it, you can rest for two more days."

"People who practice martial arts, can't you bear this? I'll take you back, and while walking on the road, your injuries will be healed. When I return to the border town, my injuries will be healed, and I can continue to go. How nice it is to be stationed at the border."

"No, no, you can't do this, your body will not be able to bear it!" Zhuge Ying said firmly.

Li Yi's eyes sparkled instantly, and he looked at her with burning eyes: "Are you caring about me?"

At this time, just as the partridge above the two of them flew away, and a large ball of snow fell from the dead branch, Li Yi quickly pulled her aside.

"Mr. Li is a good man. For me, Mr. Li has paid a lot. How can I bear to see Mr. Li hurt my body for me?" Zhuge Ying said, "Anyway, I haven't gone back for so many days, so I won't go back one day sooner." It's not too late, one day later, when your body is fully recovered, then take me away."

Zhuge Ying spoke very sincerely, and after looking at her for a long time, he said "hmm".

For some reason, when Li Yi heard that she was willing to stay for a while, a layer of joy surged in Li Yi's heart.This feeling is difficult to express in words, but it is unprecedented.

The royal palace of Wu Kingdom is also covered with snow at this time.

Through the window, Wei Ying saw the white snow fluttering outside the window, and also saw Zhaojun in a dragon robe walking in the corridor with a woman in a golden phoenix robe. Very graceful.Suddenly, whether it was intentional or unintentional, the woman slipped and staggered. He reached out to help her, but the woman held his hand and never left.

"Who is that?" Wei Ying stroked the cat in her arms and asked the maid beside her.

"That's the Queen."

"Oh."

"Today is the day of the winter solstice. The king and the queen are going to the hall to select this year's best ladies, and make the outstanding ones concubines, and distribute the rest to the palaces." The maid explained.

"Oh." Wei Ying responded lightly.

Those people, my brother has already placed~ have you come in?

"How many show girls have been selected this year?"

"36 people, three to six of them will be selected as concubines. The position varies from Baolin to concubine."

"Is there anyone who was promoted to the concubine position during the draft?"

"Yes, it mainly depends on your wealth. It is generally impossible for the children of ordinary people. After being a dignitary, it is very common to be concubine directly. Among the four concubines living in Qianxi No. [-], there is still a vacant concubine. ?"

"But I remember, isn't there a Lan Jieyu who is raising a baby living there?"

The court lady said contemptuously: "It's just a mere Jieyu, it's a kindness to let her live for a while, if there is a new master there, she will definitely let her out."

"Then where will she be moved?" Wei Ying asked curiously.

At this moment, Ruolan was pacing around the room restlessly with her big belly, and at the same time sent the maid who was close to her to the main hall to inquire about the news.

When the king appointed her to move to Qianxi No. [-], many people speculated that if she gave birth to a little prince, she would be promoted to concubine directly. there is none left.

"Miss."

There was a string of footprints on the white snow. Ruolan stood by the window and looked around. Suddenly, she saw her servant girl stepping on the snow, walking back with one foot deep and one foot shallow: "My lady, Sun Jie, the second daughter of Shangshu Sun Shangpei, was named Concubine Qiao... Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"

Ruolan fainted directly, her maid rushed over to help her up, just as she was helped to sit down, she saw a eunuch approaching from a distance, and said to her: "Mistress Lan Jieyu, the newly sealed Concubine Qiao will be staying The West Second Hall of the Four Houses of Ganxi, the Empress ordered you to move out today."

"Where are you moving?" she asked tremblingly.

"Let's tidy up and move out your things first, after you move out, the empress will arrange for you." After finishing speaking, the eunuch turned around and walked out.

Ruolan sat in a daze, her maid had been busy inside and outside the house, and in the yard outside the window, there were more and more footsteps on the snow.

Concubine Li received the letter, and as soon as she walked in, Ruolan's tears rolled down her cheeks.

"Sister Li, what should I do?"

"Isn't it just to move somewhere? Think about it." Li Fei patted her shoulder lightly.

Ruolan looked up at her: "But from now on, I can no longer go shopping in the garden with my sister for tea."

Concubine Li smiled: "This palace is so big, no matter where you move, you can still come to me often in the future!"

Ruolan looked at her with a confused face: "You said, where will the king arrange me?"

"Your Majesty, it's very lively in the main hall, don't you want to go and see?" Wei Ying's personal maid ran over to her excitedly.

"I'm not going, you have to go by yourself." Wei Ying said angrily.

"After all, the empresses selected are all hidden opponents. If the empress doesn't recognize her face first, how can she understand her temperament?"

……

"Ah Qiu!" Wei Ying sneezed, "It's all about you, you have to run out if you have a heater."

Wei Ying held the sleeping Xueluo in her arms, and the maid held a paper umbrella for her, and the two walked towards the main hall.

She was the closest to the main hall, just turned a corner and arrived. When I went to see it, it was indeed very lively inside.

Zhaojun and the Queen sat side by side, with four concubines in a row on one side, those who came late had to stand aside, and the hall was full of beautiful women in pink palace attire. Now they are still sitting on an equal footing, waiting After leaving this palace, some may become masters and servants.

The queen holds a roster of show girls in her hand, and when she calls a name, one will come up and introduce herself. The queen will ask questions and listen to her answers to test her emotional intelligence, and finally let her show her talent.

I heard that the first show girl who came out was made a concubine, and the rest of the show girls seemed not to be calm. At this time, a show girl was performing talents and playing the flute.Zhaojun was expressionless, and Mrs. Zheng leaned into Zhaojun's ear and whispered, looking at his side face, smiling sweetly.

"Meow." Hearing a meow, Zhaojun immediately turned his head around, and licked the corners of his lips when he saw her staring at the beautiful girl blankly.

"The concubine thinks this woman is very good." Zheng said, "Why don't you give her the title of Baolin."

"No, it's a pity to waste such a good talent, let's go to the palace music workshop."

"Okay, next one." Zheng said loudly.

"It's really boring." Wei Ying turned her head and left, rolled her eyes and said, "What's so interesting about this, I might as well go back and read the script."

Just as she turned around, when she raised her head, she smelled the smell of incense powder again. A woman in Tsing Yi stood in front of her with a smile that was not a smile.

Seeing her, Wei Ying's nails ached, and the scene of that night came back to her mind, making her feel a chill all over.

Concubine Xuan Zuo Rongxuan.It's her, it's her, this feeling is getting stronger and stronger.Wei Ying tightly clenched her hands into fists, she only hated herself for having no evidence.
