The queen who wears books always wants to bully me

Chapter 330 Draft 2
"The Emperor is here."

And at this moment the Empress came.

With the shout, the empress appeared in a purple dragon robe.

This dragon robe is extremely luxurious and gorgeous.

The long trailing skirt, colorful embroidered dragon, lifelike embroidered dragon patterns, jewels, elegant, ingenious, radiant, these words are not enough to describe its exquisite workmanship.

The neckline of the dragon robe, the placket, the edge and middle partition of the shawl, the bottom edge of the hem, the edge of the sleeves, the slim waist and other parts are inlaid with pieces of gold brocade satin woven with gold thread.

Shoes embroidered with double dragons, inlaid with oriental beads on the front end, are extremely gorgeous.

A group of beautiful girls knelt on the ground, and when they lowered their heads, they could only see the shoes and the long trailing skirt.

All these are enough to show the dignity and luxury of the empress, not only the supplies, but also these handsome young men are all her concubines.

She can have all the beautiful men in the world by herself, and this alone is enough to make people envy and hate.

Before Mu night, several concubines stood up to greet her.

The queen came over in two or three steps, reached out and took the empress's hand intimately and sat down together.

Seeing this scene, a group of women bit their lips and their hearts were broken. He was already a queen, no matter how much he fantasized about it, he couldn't be his own.

With so many beauties in front of her eyes, the queen never raised her eyes, but he has been completely different since the empress.

The legendary God of War, King Chu, can also laugh, and has a gentle and considerate side. If you didn't see it with your own eyes, you wouldn't believe it.

Mu Wan glanced at the beautiful women, then looked at the princes, the corners of her lips curled up slightly, "Have you chosen all the princes?"

"Preparing for selection."

Mu Wan was slightly surprised, "How else are you going to choose?"

They have gone through thousands of selections, one in a hundred, and they still have to be selected at the end?
This is too troublesome.

Situ Mo succinctly stated the requests made by the princes.

Mu Wan narrowed her eyes and nodded, "Then let's start, according to the wishes of the brothers."

It's not bad for this link, it doesn't hurt to endure it for two days.

Then the show girls began to show their talents.

The Chuxiu Palace is quite big, and the empress hated the sun, so she moved from the courtyard to the palace.

The show girls enter the hall to perform in order.

The performance is nothing more than piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. At first, it felt fresh, but it became more and more boring after watching it.

Both the empress and the concubines are frequently out of state, dozing off, as if sleeping.

Until Zhou Ruolan came in to show the tea art, which was unique and novel, which made people's eyes shine.

She is very smart and uses flowers to make tea, and the flowers bloom in the teacup, which is very beautiful and pleasing to the eye.

In addition, she was born beautiful, among many beautiful girls, she was the most beautiful, and she knew medical skills, and she knew the effects of that kind of scented tea very well. Listening to her explanation of the health-preserving effects of scented tea made people interested.

I heard that she also opened a scented tea health care center in the capital, which is very popular, especially scented tea can beautify the skin, and this alone has attracted many ladies.

After returning to the capital from Yaowanggu, she opened a scented tea health shop, medicine shop, medical center, and other shops are very profitable, because under the name of Yaowanggu, the pills sold are very expensive, so she is not short of money at all. .

Just look at her consumption of private orders.

And the complete set of dresses I wear today are all custom-made, and a set costs 8000 taels.

Based on this, both Prince Li and Prince Qi will compete to marry her.

Everyone was admiring her graceful movements of making tea.

But Chu Bei stared at the scented teas, but suddenly asked, "Is it true that this chrysanthemum and wolfberry tea can clear the liver and improve eyesight?"

Hearing this, Zhou Ruolan's eyes flickered brightly, and she said with a smile, "My lord, yes, if you read a lot and stay up late, you can drink more chrysanthemum and medlar tea, it can clear your liver and eyesight, and protect your eyes better."

Chu Bei narrowed his eyes slightly, nodded thoughtfully, "Bring it up."

Zhou Ruolan was secretly delighted, and hurriedly picked up the brewed chrysanthemum and wolfberry tea and walked towards the man in the hall step by step.

"My lord, please have some tea."

Chu Bei nodded slightly, took it with satisfaction, and handed it to Mu Wan in a blink of an eye, "The emperor's tea protects the eyes."

Zhou Ruolan's smile froze, and she was a little dumbfounded. Seeing Chu Bei serving tea and water to the empress tenderly and considerately, her eyes became cloudy in an instant, she bit her head and bit her lips, as if a basin of cold water was being poured down, cooling her whole body.

Thinking that in his eyes, he was just serving tea and making tea, his icy eyes glanced at the empress secretly, with viciousness and resentment flashing across his eyes.

The corners of Mu Wan's lips raised slightly, she took the teacup, took a sip, looked at her and said, "Miss Zhou is good at tea, I heard you can also make sachets?"

The cold and oppressive eyes swept over, Zhou Ruolan suddenly felt a chill down his spine, a little startled, did she find out?
The woman's eyes flickered darkly. Although she was panicked in her heart, she remained calm on the surface. She replied calmly, "Back to the emperor, I have a little understanding of medical skills. I grew up in the Valley of Medicine Kings. I have loved making incense since I was a child."

"Well, I know, I remember that you once gave me a sachet, but it was a pity that I lost it. I like that sachet very much, I never leave it every day, and I have to smell it when I sleep at night. I remember you said that it can soothe the nerves and help sleep. Right!" The empress held the teacup in her hand and narrowed her eyes slightly.

Zhou Ruolan lowered her head, showing no expression, "Yes... If the emperor likes it, I will make a sachet for the emperor."

The empress's cold eyes swept over her eyes, the corners of her lips curled up, and she smiled and said, "Well, okay, then I will wait."

Zhou Ruolan nodded meekly, and then retreated.

The princes frowned slightly, especially Ling Wang sweating secretly, only he and Zhou Ruolan knew about the sachet.

At the beginning when the sachet disappeared, he thought the corpse had been destroyed by spies.

Later, the empress woke up and lost her memory, thinking that it was impossible to know about it, so she did not retrieve the sachet.

But what did she mean by deliberately mentioning it today?
Could it be that she knew?Is the sachet in her hand?
That's the evidence for murdering the Empress...

When Zhou Ruolan turned around and walked out of the hall, her gaze secretly met with King Ling's. This matter needs to be discussed in private.

...

The first round of selection was over, and there were less than half of the show girls left. None of them chose the princess immediately. They said that they would wait until the Empress Dowager's birthday to see how she behaved. After two days of observing her character, she could decide.

Mu Wan didn't bother to care about this matter, she just got up and glanced at Zhou Ruolan, and said in a rather stern tone, "Everyone is treated equally when entering the palace for draft, there is no need for special treatment, let's all arrange to live in Chuxiu Palace together."

Prince Li laughed hurriedly, "It's the emperor's grandmother's intention to arrange Miss Zhou to live in the Yiyue Hall. It's just a formality. Why should the emperor care about such a trivial matter?"

"A trivial matter? A beautiful girl lives in my harem and lives with the concubine. Is this a trivial matter? Does King Li think that being green is also a trivial matter?" Mu Wan sneered.

Both Prince Li and Zhou Ruolan's expressions changed, "What does your majesty mean?"
