Chapter 11 Draft ([-])

Time flies, and three years have passed.

In the fourth year of Yongzheng, the general election is coming.

In the early morning, in the main hall of the old lady's courtyard in Guerjia Mansion, Yuyao followed her mother, Qi Jia, to greet the old lady Yiergenjueluo.

The old lady looked at Yuyao and sighed in her heart. Although her three granddaughters are not beautiful, they are very good-looking. With a strong bookish look and elegant posture, they are absolutely superior beauties.

"It's a pity that my family doesn't have the conditions, and I paid a lot of money to hire a nanny who has been out of the palace for many years and only taught for two months.

Otherwise, with such a nanny teaching her for a long time, Yuyao will become better, and it will be more appropriate to enter the palace to participate in the general election this time. "

When Qi Jia heard this, she felt a little regretful, "What Er Niang said is true."

Yuyao pretended not to know why the two sighed so much, and said nonchalantly: "The eldest sister and the second sister were not taught by the nuns in the palace during the general election, didn't there be any troubles when they participated in the general election? It can be seen that Er Niang and Mamu have thought too much."

Qi Jia shook her head, "Yuyao, what you want to run in the palace this time is not not to make mistakes, but to perform well."

The old lady nodded, looked at Yuyao and said solemnly: "What your mother said is, Yuyao, you must remember to show your talent."

Yuyao nodded thoughtfully, of course, she did it on purpose, she couldn't just act like she wasn't smart enough.

Seeing her expression, the old lady felt at ease, Yuyao was quite a smart girl, and she could tell something was wrong from what she and Qi Jia said.

In this way, she is more assured that she will enter the palace. After all, the harem is not for women without a little brain.

After such thoughts flashed in her mind, the old lady said to Yuyao gently: "Yuyao, it seems that you have thought of it."

Yuyao nodded, "Mum, you want me to keep my name in this draft."

The old lady shook her head, "It's not that I want to, but I must."

Yuyao frowned, "But the granddaughter can only show her best side, but there is no guarantee that she will keep the brand."

The old lady smiled mysteriously, "You don't need to show your best side, but to highlight your bookishness, your frailty, your elegant posture, and your talent." It seems that you have passed away The aspect of the noble concubine Dunsu is shown.

The old lady was just thinking about the latter words, she didn't say it, but continued: "As for the palace, you don't need to worry, as long as you show what Mam said, there is a [-]% chance that you will be marked. "

As soon as Yuyao heard it, she understood, "In the palace, is there someone for you Mam?"

The old lady shook her head, "It's just an acquaintance who owes Mam a favor. This time, I just want her to help me with a word."

After hearing this, Yuyao thought about it, and guessed that this person must be by the queen's side, right?

So, she tentatively asked, "The queen's side?"

The old lady was taken aback, then nodded immediately, and asked strangely, "How did you guess that?"

Yuyao smiled, "The queen is in charge of the draft. If the granddaughter is sure that the brand will be reserved, it can only be the queen's consent, or the Holy Majesty personally indicates to keep the brand. Moreover, the granddaughter thinks about it, our Guerjia Mansion should not have the ability to affect it." to the Holy One."

But it was incredible that the queen actually knew someone, probably a confidant.

However, Mam said just now that someone owed her a favor, so after this general election, the favor is probably over, and there is probably no friendship between her Mam and this person.

Sure enough, the old lady's solemn reminder sounded in her ears.

"When you enter the palace to run for election this time, don't think that you will take it lightly because of someone's help.

That person is just helping to mention it to the queen, but he will not protect you. During the draft process, you need to solve everything by yourself.

Of course, even if you enter the palace, you can only rely on yourself, there is nothing in the palace that can help you. "

After hearing this, Yuyao nodded seriously.She herself didn't expect much from the mansion to help her, even if the mansion put someone in the palace, she would not trust him immediately, unless the man could be used by her instead of obeying Guarjia House orders.

She still remembers that the relatives in this mansion are all snobbish people, if for the sake of profit, let the other party do something to her, then she will be finished.

After the three of them talked again in the room, the old lady asked her confidant maid to come to Yuyao with a box.

Yuyao looked at the old lady with puzzled eyes, "Mam, who is this?"

"This is jewelry for your election."

Yuyao let Qingzhu take over the box, and she saluted the old lady, "Thank you Mam!"

"Okay, I'm fine here, you guys go back!"

After returning, Qi Jia asked Yuyao to go back to her own Yunshu Garden first, and later she sent someone to bring over the clothes she had run for.

Early in the morning two days later, when it was still dark, Yuyao woke up.

After washing up and eating breakfast in advance, she went back to the bedroom and dressed up again.

She asked Lan Yi to comb her hair for herself. On the hairpin, there were gold-plated emerald flowers on the hairpin. On the left side, an amethyst pendant bead was inserted obliquely. There is a pair of drop-shaped earrings hanging, a goose yellow flag dress, and a pair of moon white satin basin shoes on the feet.

Because it was still dark, many lanterns were lit in the mansion, illuminating the whole Guerja mansion brightly.

The lotus steps are moving lightly, the skirt is flowing, the figure is graceful, coupled with the bookish look, everyone in the Guerjia Mansion looked at Yuyao who came out like this, and their eyes flashed with amazement.

Looking at Yuyao like this, Guerjia Yunhai was very satisfied and confident. Her daughter is so outstanding, and with the original arrangement, she will definitely fulfill his wish.

"Okay, it's time to go." He stroked the beard on his chin and said.

Hearing this, Yuyao bowed to the old lady and Qi Jia, "Emiang, Mom, Yuyao is leaving now!"

Then she walked to the mule cart that had been prepared outside the door, the coachman stood aside respectfully and waited, Yuyao boarded the mule cart with hands folded in blue, she gently lowered the door curtain.

Qi Jia Yunhai came to the side of the mule cart on horseback, and said: "Let's go!" Immediately, the horse took the lead and opened the way ahead.

Yuyao listened to the sound of Che Gulu pressing on the stone slab, thinking about the upcoming draft, and thinking about her possible future life, she couldn't help but feel a little dazed and nervous, and couldn't help but clenched the handkerchief in her hand.

She took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down as much as possible.But the road seemed very long, and she felt that she was sitting in a daze in the car, and it took a long time before the mule cart stopped.

Yuyao realized now that she had arrived.

The surrounding area was very quiet, Yuyao sat very comfortably at first, but as time passed, she couldn't help but quietly lifted a corner of the curtain of the car window, peeping secretly, and saw that there were densely packed mules in front and behind her. car.

She quietly lowered the window curtains, thinking to herself, there were so many mule carts lined up in front of her, she probably had to wait.

Sure enough, she waited for a long time, from the cool and still dark morning to the sun rising, and then it was her turn.
