Prince of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 467
Gao Ming quietly entered Su Wan'er's room, then tiptoedly took off his clothes and climbed onto the bed.

But what Gao Ming didn't expect was that he had just climbed up when a loud roar came from his ear.

"Bold!"

"Uh……"

Hearing this strange voice, Gao Ming was taken aback for a moment.

"Strange, I don't seem to have heard this voice before, who is it?"

Gao Ming just thought of this, and before he had time to speak, he felt a "bang" hit on his head, and he passed out without saying a word.

When he woke up, it was already the next morning.

While struggling to get up from the bed, Gao Ming grinned and touched the back of his head.

"Oops...my head is mediocre, damn it, who did it, it was so heavy, I almost gave me a concussion..."

As soon as Gao Ming finished speaking, he heard two "plop" sounds from the side. He turned his head and saw two beautiful women kneeling on the ground.

One of them, Gao Ming, also knew Wu Mei, while the other one, Gao Ming, who was older, was very strange to him.

Seeing this scene, he immediately frowned.

"Wu Mei, why are you in Wan'er's room? Where's Wan'er? And that one next to him, stop kneeling on the ground, get up and talk!"

"Yes!"

Wu Mei agreed, pulled the woman beside her to stand up, and then saluted Gao Ming.

"Reporting to His Royal Highness, since you left, His Majesty has brought Princess Jinyang and the Crown Prince into the palace, and the Crown Princess has also returned to the East Palace. When leaving, the Crown Princess said that there are many important things in this room, so let My concubine moved here to live."

There are indeed many important things in this room, such as Gao Ming's tiger penis wine, "36 Strategies" that he asked Su Wan'er to bind, and some top-quality aloes, etc.

These are things that Gao Ming values ​​very much, so it is normal for Su Wan'er to let Wu Mei guard her.

Thinking of this, he nodded immediately.

"So that's it! I see, there is one more question, who is this next to you?"

"She is……"

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Wu Mei bit her lip immediately, then knelt down towards Gao Ming again with a "plop".

"His Royal Highness, Miss Zheng didn't know it was His Royal Highness last night, so she was so reckless, and it was my concubine who invited her to live with her. Please forgive me, Your Highness!"

"Miss Zheng?"

Hearing this title, Gao Ming frowned immediately.

"She is from the Zheng family in Xingyang?"

Wu Mei also knew that Gao Ming was at odds with the Zheng family in Xingyang, so when she saw Gao Ming's frown, she quickly shook her head.

"No, no, no... Your Highness, you misunderstood. Miss Zheng has nothing to do with the Xingyang Zheng family. She came to Chang'an to participate in the beauty contest."

"Uh...a beauty contest?"

Hearing Wu Mei's words, Gao Ming was immediately dumbfounded.

In fact, if Wu Mei hadn't mentioned it, Gao Ming would have forgotten about the beauty pageant.

The beauty pageant took place after the Mid-Autumn Festival last year. Originally, Gao Ming planned to finish the competition before the end of the year, but because of the war between Datang and Goguryeo, he didn't care about it.

But now, hearing what Wu Mei said, the beauty pageant of feelings is still going on?

Thinking of this, Gao Ming raised Wu Mei who was kneeling on the ground, and at the same time asked her.

"Since you're still running this beauty pageant after I'm gone, what's going on now?"

As soon as Gao Ming finished speaking, Wu Mei hurriedly bowed to him.

"Reporting to His Royal Highness, not long after you left for the expedition, the top [-] winners of the beauty pageant were selected. I thought that Your Highness might not be able to come back for the time being, so I reported this to the Crown Princess."

Hearing Wu Mei's words, Gao Ming immediately laughed too.

"Did Wan'er ask you to continue the game?"

"Yes!"

Wu Mei nodded and smiled at Gao Ming.

"Your Highness is wise, the Crown Princess did say so, so I invited Princess Jinyang and His Highness King Jin to continue this beauty contest."

Hearing Wu Mei's answer, Gao Ming immediately covered his face.

"You also called Xiao Sizi? Well, I guess she took the initiative to join in the fun, didn't she make trouble?"

"Uh……"

Wu Mei seemed to think of something, the corner of her mouth twitched suddenly, and she shook her head insincerely.

"Princess Jinyang is very well-behaved. The beauty pageant this time went well. The top ten were also selected, and six of them were married to nobles from Chang'an. Many of the top [-] women also married The officials and eunuchs in Luoyang and Jingzhaofu!"

"Great!"

As soon as Wu Mei finished speaking, Gao Ming clapped his hands happily.

"In this way, there shouldn't be too much resistance to delaying the age of marriage for girls, good, good!"

Speaking of this, Gao Ming suddenly gave the woman kneeling on the ground a weird look.

This woman is very beautiful. According to Gao Ming's standard, if she uses a full score of 30, she has at least reached [-] points, but she seems to be a bit old, she seems to be approaching [-] years old.

In later generations, it is common for girls to be 30 and not get married, so it is considered normal, but in the Tang Dynasty, girls were married when they were about [-] or [-] years old, and some women in their [-]s had grandchildren.

You know, the first threshold for Gao Ming's beauty pageant is "unmarried women over the age of 16", so looking at it this way, this beautiful woman who looks 30 years old is actually unmarried?
"Why can't she marry such a beautiful woman? Even if many men in Tang Dynasty are lolicons, there are always different people, right?"

Thinking of this, Gao Ming immediately frowned at Wu Mei.

"Since Miss Zheng is here to participate in the beauty pageant, then the beauty pageant is over now, why is she still here?"

Hearing Gao Ming's words, a wry smile flashed across Wu Mei's face.

"That's because her reward was not fulfilled. Didn't you say, His Royal Highness, that as long as the top three places in the beauty pageant are won, not only will they be given bonuses, but they will also be allowed to marry the nobles of Chang'an City?"

"That's right!"

As soon as Wu Mei finished speaking, Gao Ming nodded immediately.

"I said, if the top three can't marry into a rich family in Chang'an, then our beauty pageant will become a joke, uh...you mean this girl Zheng in front of you is the top three?"

"Yes!"

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Wu Mei nodded immediately.

"Didn't Your Highness say it back then? As long as someone is beautiful, try to choose an older one. Miss Zheng is the oldest among all the beauty contestants, and she is also beautiful, so I chose her as No.1!"

Having said that, Wu Mei immediately looked at the woman kneeling on the ground, then shook her head helplessly.

"However, No. 2 and No. 3 have already married the nobles of Chang'an City, but this Miss Zheng, let alone the nobles of Chang'an, not even the officials and eunuchs in Jingzhao and Luoyang dare to marry her." Hers, so the concubine can only keep her and wait for Your Highness to come back and deal with her."

"Uh……"

Hearing Wu Mei's words, Gao Ming was shocked immediately.

"No one dares to marry her, who the hell is she?"
