The concubine Jinghua first-class poisonous concubine

Chapter 177
The east spit white, and the capital of Chen Kingdom ushered in a grand day.

Today is the day when the crown prince chooses his concubine, and it is also the time when the whole capital is excited about it.

In the palace, the palace people are busy, but they are arranged in an orderly manner. Golden lanterns are hung all over the whole palace.

On the royal road where the golden light is shining, Shuyuan of the famous family has already stepped out of her carriage in the morning light, with a graceful posture, colorful clothes and delicate faces, all of them are like fairies.

Either as delicate as a lotus, or as enchanting as a cloud, or as delicate as a jade...

Everything is beautiful, and everything is full of style.

And the street is also very lively, the people are talking about who is the daughter of the family today, who will have this honor and get the position of the crown princess.

Among them, the most popular candidate is Wu Huiyun, the third daughter of the Marquis of Changyuan.

Wu Huiyun is a well-known talented woman, she is also proficient in all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and she is good at singing and dancing. Everyone said that she must be the crown princess.

It was at this time that the carriage from Changyuanhou's Mansion arrived slowly, with a few flying butterflies hanging on the roof of the carriage engraved with carved railings, and the body was gilded with auspicious clouds painted on it.

In the carriage, Wu Huiyun wore a smoky gold silk brocade dress, and a pair of cloud-toed brocade shoes with treasure-shaped patterns on her feet. The flowing gold hairpin on her head swayed gently with the carriage, and her exquisite makeup set her off infinitely. luxury.

However, she seemed dissatisfied, she kept raising her hand to caress her temples, her willow eyebrows were occasionally furrowed, and occasionally stretched, there was a little nervousness in her eyes, and an uncontrollable eagerness to move.

The maid at the side couldn't help but chuckled, "Miss, don't worry about it, look, everyone thinks that you are the best candidate for the crown princess on the road we have passed! I see, you must be the princess!" He is the most beautiful person today."

Wu Huiyun smiled slightly, her beautiful eyes looked at the people beside her lightly, with confidence in her eyes.

When they arrived, there were already many carriages parked on the imperial road.

Wu Huiyun got out of the carriage gracefully with the help of the maid, and when she raised her eyes, she saw the carriage of Changding Hou Mansion in front of her from a distance, and her eyebrows frowned slightly.

Beside the carriage, Fengling was wearing a lotus-colored blue silk gauze dress, with a wishful bun on her arm. Although she was young, she was very handsome, which made people's eyes shine. In addition, her relationship with Princess Yongning, if she really competed with her , must be a strong opponent.

But at this moment, Feng Ling was looking around, with a lively and pleasant appearance, and there were three extremely outstanding men standing beside her.

"Fourth Brother, do you think Sister Shu will come?" Feng Ling raised her head eagerly, eager to see through.

Feng Qi didn't say anything, but his expression was somewhat deep, recalling his third brother's sudden change of attitude towards Miss Six, he couldn't help feeling very unhappy.Looking up at the eldest brother and second brother next to him, he felt even more irritable.

What a mess!
The East Palace, compared to the bustle of the main hall, is now heavily guarded, with a completely different feeling of coldness.

On the attic, a man in a fine attire stood awe-inspiring.

Occasionally, when the wind blows, the sleeves are filled with robes, the quiet and handsome features are slightly raised, and the gaze falls into the distance.

On that side, the clouds rolled gently, but they couldn't disperse...

The moment he pursed his lips, there seemed to be a gloomy cold light all over his body, repelling people thousands of miles away.

As a prince, there are so many involuntary things, he can't even touch the woman he likes, and the road ahead has already been arranged, and he can't choose by himself, like a heavy shackle on his body, making people breathless. Not angry.

There was a sound of hurried footsteps, and a father-in-law leaned in, "Your Highness, the time has come."

However, the man beside the carved wooden railing didn't react at all, letting the sudden wind blow up the hem of his clothes, and the sleeves of his clothes were blown away...

The father-in-law didn't dare to go forward, and his face was even more troubled, "Your Highness, it's time for the empress to send someone to remind you..."

The man still stood there, only a faint sigh could be heard.

After a long time, Dongfang Xu turned around, his starry eyes were like torches, "Let's go!"

……

On the palace road, the carriage of Marquis Changrong finally arrived at the palace.

And when Yun Shu came down, the surroundings seemed much quieter, and there were empty carriages as far as she could see, just like her mood at this time.

Walking slowly on the icy stone road, Yun Shu suddenly thought of Dongfang Xu's words and his focused and serious eyes in her mind.

There was a slight flicker in the heart.

Yunshu knew that she might have hurt him, but in her heart, Dongfang Xu was just an ally, and he shouldn't be distracted by these children's affair, he must know where Chen Kingdom stands now, Also understand the danger of the moment.

And the position of the crown princess is absolutely unacceptable to her.

What he needs is a candidate with a strong background, who can assist him, and laugh at the world with him, but that person will definitely not be him.

When she was about to enter the palace gate, Chunxiang next to her couldn't help but carefully glanced at her master. For some reason, she always felt that the young lady had changed.

Could it be that something happened between you and the prince?
Chunxiang couldn't figure it out, but today was the day for the crown prince to choose a concubine, so she couldn't help but look forward to it.

Earlier, the old lady called her in private, and asked her to pay attention to the young lady's performance at the concubine selection banquet and the prince's reaction. Doesn't this mean that the old lady wanted to make the young lady...

Moreover, Chunxiang also felt that the prince might belong to the young lady, but she really couldn't see her own young lady's true thoughts, did the young lady really want to be the princess or not?

Chunxiang felt that she couldn't understand it at all.

While thinking about it, the two had already entered the Royal Garden.

The long string of zithers and the melody surround the ears, making people feel like they are in a fairyland.

In the imperial garden, there are hundreds of flowers competing for beauty, such as indigo, blue, and pink, which are colorful and eye-catching.

Standing in twos and twos, all the young ladies dressed up, smiling and smiling, and their gestures seem to be unintentional, but in fact they are all deliberately decorated, just right smiles, and flawless figures, and against the backdrop of the beautiful scenery, they are more charming than flowers.

Chunxiang immediately turned her head to look at Yunshu's attire today, feeling a little uneasy in her heart. Miss, this is too elegant and cold, right?
However, thinking about it carefully, Chunxiang felt that this was the reason. After all, the aunt Lei's passed away not long ago, and the young lady should not dress too enchantingly.Hey... It's just a pity that on this day, if my lady dresses up better than these ladies, she will definitely be thousands of times better than these ladies.

"Sister Shu..." A joyful laugh came, and Feng Ling's small figure also galloped over.

"I thought Sister Shu wouldn't be here today!" Feng Ling acted like a baby, and Yun Shu smiled softly, subconsciously looking behind her.

Slightly taken aback, she realized at this moment that she was unconsciously looking for Feng Ling's figure.

Thinking of that man, Yun Shu frowned, his cold eyes instantly came to mind, and Yun Shu's hand holding Feng Ling suddenly let go.

Fengling looked up suspiciously, "Sister Shu?"

At this time, Wu Huiyun came slowly surrounded by the crowd, the flowing color gold hairpin on her head was crisp and melodious.

Her eyes fell on Yun Shu's face, and then she stood still in front of her, "How is County Lord Yongji?"

Yun Shu raised her eyes, naturally she didn't miss the flash of hostility in her eyes, but she didn't say a word, and smiled back, with the fragrance of orchids permeating between her brows and eyes.

Wu Huiyun smiled slightly, but the fingers in the water sleeve pinched lightly.

"Master Yongji, I heard that Mrs. Changronghou has passed away, I wish to express my condolences..."

"Yeah, what a pity..."

"Master Yongji, take care of your health, don't be too sad!"

At this time, the ladies around Wu Huiyun suddenly began to comfort each other with each other, and their words were even more sensible.

However, they were reminding Yun Shu in a disguised form that even if she had no intention of fighting for the position of the Crown Princess, she should be more peaceful when her aunt passed away and she was still in filial piety.

Yun Shu smiled slightly, but remained silent.

Originally, Yun Shu didn't plan to come today, but the old lady said that it was the queen's kind invitation, and she has an official position, so even if she attended, she would not be disappointed.

What Yunshu cares about is that she declined the prince, and the two are afraid that they will be embarrassed when they meet again.

She thinks the best way now is not to meet the prince for the time being, and after a period of time, when his mood calms down, she will slowly enlighten him, so that he can let go of this matter and put the country's affairs first.

I just didn't think about it, but in the end she still couldn't hide.

Feng Ling didn't like the hypocritical smiling faces of these young ladies very much, she glanced sideways at Yun Shu's expression, and then directly took Yun Shu's hand, "Sister Shu, let's go, the air here is not good, it's very suffocating. "

As soon as these words came out, the complexions of the ladies suddenly changed, and before they could say anything, they saw that the two of them had left without looking back, and they bit their faces angrily for a while.

In the end, there was an outrageous discussion.

"This Miss Feng Qi is too arrogant, she doesn't pay attention to us!"

"That's right, in my opinion, Sister Wu is the most suitable position for the crown princess!"

"I also think so, and the Sixth Miss of the Marquis of Changrong's Mansion doesn't even have the slightest bit of maternity!"

"Hmph, look at her appearance, I don't even think about what day it is today, she dares to come to the palace dressed like this, she doesn't pay attention to the royal demeanor at all."

"No, just like her, compared with Sister Wu, she is really a world away!"

Wu Huiyun also slowly looked away at this time, with a modest smile on her face, "Sisters are joking, let's go, we should also enter the venue, don't delay the time."

At this time, everyone straightened their gorgeous skirts one after another, showing soft and harmless smiles.

The Concubine Selection Banquet was set outside the Huarong Hall. The spacious area was more than enough to accommodate hundreds of people. With the stage as the center, the seats spread out in a row were neatly arranged. Potted flowers, seats filled with exquisite pastries, and fragrant wine.

Such a grand occasion is not inferior to any state banquet. This shows that the royal family attaches great importance to the selection of the crown prince, or in other words, the importance it attaches to the selection of the crown prince.

As the zither sang, everyone entered the table one after another.

At this time, someone keenly noticed that there was a seat under the main seat, and the glass lamp on the seat was different from others, and did not belong to any relatives of the emperor. Looking up, the empty place on that side was actually So eye-catching.

For a while, everyone speculated.
