concubine queen

Chapter 14 Draft
The old lady also knew that Li Zhaoran had gone too far, but she was her own granddaughter after all, so she couldn't be so cruel.

"Pingxuan, let my mother take care of today's matter, you take Hua'er back to rest first." The old lady said calmly, but her favoritism towards Ruan Hua could be heard in her tone.

Li Zhaoran was very dissatisfied, but if he continued to make trouble at this time, he probably would have no place in this family in the future.Let's wait for grandma to deal with it obediently. It seems that mother miscalculated this time.Li Zhaoran's heart was pale, she really didn't expect that in the eyes of her father, she and her mother were worthless.And Ruan Hua and her daughter Li Fengxi are very important.

In fact, the prime minister didn't really want to force his daughter, but he was angry. Since the old lady gave him a step down, he naturally couldn't refute the old lady's face.

"The son will trouble the mother to deal with this matter, Hua'er, let's go back first."

Ruan Hua, who was in the prime minister's arms, looked at the old lady gratefully and nodded.The two left Mo Ruzhi's room.

"Zhaoran, my grandmother sent someone to investigate your mother's affairs. Why do you force your father to die? Alright, now take care of your mother. Fengxi, you should go back too. You will enter the palace in a few days. Hurry up and learn etiquette, don't let it affect you." The old lady spoke of Li Zhaoran in a reproachful tone, but when she mentioned Fengxi, she became gentle.

Feng Xi nodded, saluted obediently, and then backed out.As for how her grandmother will handle this matter, she is not worried. After all, her grandmother also understands her father's intentions. Judging from her grandmother's attitude towards her, her mother has saved herself from danger this time.

"Miss, are you not worried that the old lady will blame the fourth lady?"

On the way back, Ningtong asked Fengxi worriedly, she was afraid that the fourth wife would be blamed, and the young lady would also be affected.

Feng Xi smiled slightly.

"Ningtong, you can tell by the way grandma treats my mother and me. She won't blame my mother very much."

Ningtong thought for a while, and found that what the young lady said was reasonable, so she was much less worried.

On the second day, the old lady arrested a young maid in the second lady's room and sent her to the government.This matter was settled, but Feng Xi knew that the little girl was not the mastermind of this matter, she was just a substitute, and the grandmother did this only to make Mo Shi look better.In the next few months, Mo's family was very quiet and did not cause trouble.She knew that she was no longer qualified to make trouble.

When Fengxi heard her mother talk about her father's intention to let her be the mistress that day, she was a little afraid that her mother would agree.But later my mother tactfully refused, so she felt relieved.She was afraid that her mother would not be able to resist the temptation and agreed. Although her mother was very popular with her father, but with her mother's background, if she became the main wife, she might be accused of it.My father also knew this truth, so he didn't force it.But he said that there will be no more mistresses in the future, so Mo and Ruan Hua were promoted as side wives.This arrangement is also good, lest Mo Shi think of other tricks to frame his mother after she enters the palace for the sake of vacancies.

In a blink of an eye, the day of the draft is approaching, and Feng Xi has already made sufficient preparations.

The ladies in Kyoto are the first to participate in the draft, and then the women from other states and counties.On this day of the audition, Feng Xi chose the lavender pleated skirt, put her hair in a refreshing and simple bun, and wore a white magnolia and jadeite hairpin.The whole person looks very fresh and refined.Ningtong looked at Fengxi with envy in her eyes.

"Miss, you are so beautiful, I feel that you will definitely be marked today!"

Feng Xi said lightly, "Ningtong, let's go."

Ningtong knew that the young lady didn't like publicity, so she didn't say any more.

Feng Xi got into the mule cart sent by the palace, and now Ning Tong could no longer follow her.After a while, the mule cart stopped at Zhenganmen.

"My lord, please get out of the car, and the father-in-law in the palace will take you in." The old man who had been following the car said in a low voice.

Feng Xi hummed, and got out of the car carefully.

"My lord, please come here with your servant." A young eunuch walked up to Feng Xi.

Feng Xi glanced at the front, all the women who entered the palace for draft were in front, and today they were all dressed very brightly, only two or three were very elegantly dressed.Followed the father-in-law to a bunch of show girls.

Feng Xi took a closer look, and found that the most gorgeous one was the Taiwei's second daughter, Zhou Liwei.I saw that she was wearing a double-breasted long skirt made of fine brocade, and the lining was trimmed with gold silk. The craftsmanship was also from Xiangyifang, but it was hundreds of times better than Fengxi's.Wearing a golden hollow carved hairpin on her head, she looks bright and bright, and her appearance is also excellent, plus her family background is prominent and she is a prostitute, so she must definitely leave a brand.And a woman with a slightly inferior appearance beside her is Chen Danpei, the daughter of Tai Shiling.She is not as bright as Zhou Liwei in terms of clothes, but she is very smart and knows how to curry favor with Zhou Liwei.Feng Xi looked at many other people, most of them were either from good family background or good-looking, and there were also those from middle-to-high family background who came to try, after all, once they were selected, the family would have a bright future.

Among all the beautiful girls, the one who made Fengxi feel the most pressure was the one who said very little, but had an excellent appearance. She was dressed in extremely elegant clothes, so Fengxi asked the side of her.It turned out to be Jian Yingqiu, the daughter of General Zuo Jun. Feng Xi had heard a little about her, and heard that she was named the most beautiful woman in Kyoto.

When the time came, it finally started.

The consul's father-in-law was called in three by three, and Fengxi's name was at the bottom, so there was no rush.She observes the girls who have already been drafted.Those who were selected had already gone to another place, while those who were not selected came out with a pale face. Some were so serious that they even had trouble walking. They were carried out by the eunuchs and carried back by sedan chairs.Feng Xi was not nervous at all, she saw that Jian Yingqiu was not in a hurry, she looked calm, and knew in her heart that this person might be a strong enemy after entering the palace, so she was a little more wary of Jian Yingqiu.

An hour after the draft, more than half of the people entered, but only three were selected.The remaining half of the people were a little timid and started to worry, and a few were flustered while pinching the handkerchiefs in their hands.It was not surprising that Zhou Liwei was selected, but what was surprising was that Chen Danpei was also selected. Her looks were not considered high-quality, and her family background was not bad. It seemed that she had some scheming to be selected.There is another one selected, with average family background and appearance, but extremely talented. It is Zhang Huiyi, the eldest daughter of Jing Zhaoyin, who is said to be a talented woman all over the capital.It seems that the emperor is not a useless person, and he is serious about the draft.As Feng Xi thought about it, she felt that her chance of being selected was even greater.

It was another round, and finally it was Jian Yingqiu's turn. Feng Xi became interested and watched Jian Yingqiu go in, only to see that Jian Yingqiu still had a calm face at this time.She deserves to be the number one beauty in Kyoto, and what she brings is this calmness and calmness.
