Expensive marriage: The concubine is begging for peace again today

Chapter 18 Draft
Wendebo's eldest son Tan Yijie and Princess Xinxing were born to Wendebo's original wife, and the siblings have been dependent on each other since childhood.

Wen Debo doesn't like the eldest son, but prefers the second son born to his second wife, and he has been reluctant to register the eldest son for a long time.

The new princess voluntarily became the princess for the sake of Tan Yijie's heir.

Tan Yijie is very important to Xinxing Princess, he was kidnapped and almost broke Xinxing Princess.

Just when Princess Xinxing was scratching her heart and worrying about her brother, someone said in front of her, "A fluke is never just a fluke."

Let Xinxing princess instantly understand who kidnapped her brother.

It's just that the beautiful girl who looks weak has such great ability?
Although Princess Xinxing didn't believe that Jiang Changning had this ability, she didn't dare to act rashly.

Furthermore, she also tested it out, she is indeed not qualified to decide the candidate for a concubine.

The man said again: "Princess seeks benevolence and obtains benevolence, she should be content, don't make extra troubles and make enemies indiscriminately."

Princess Xinxing has completely settled down, and she no longer dares to vent her anger on others at will.

Soon Qin Tianjian chose an auspicious date, April [-]th.

Princess Xinxing put on the princess auspicious costume, walked out of the palace, and when she arrived at the gate of the city, the ceremony officer stepped forward and said, "Princess, please bow down and thank you."

She got off the carriage, faced the direction of the palace, knelt down and kowtowed.

When she got up, she saw the elder brother Tan Yijie standing in the crowd with a haggard face, his eyes were slightly red, but there was a relieved smile on his lips.

She re-boarded the carriage and left with the mission. From then on, her homeland became a foreign land.

On the third day after Princess Xinxing left Beijing, the empress dowager in the palace issued a decree. The decree was very long. ..."

Today's Saint, the first national draft.

Three years ago, it was a small election, only within the capital, and the daughters of officials of the fifth rank and above participated in the election.

This time, it is a general election, and all girls of good nationality between the ages of 13 and 17 are eligible to run.

On the government's roster, besides Zhuang Qingyan and Zhuang Qingchan, there was also Jiang Changning.

Jiang Changning couldn't believe it, "I'm also on the roster?"

"Yes, Miss Jiang." The little servant who came to the house to roll the roll said politely.

Although Jiang Changning was full of doubts, he was not good at asking questions in public.

She didn't know why she was on the roster, but King Jin knew very well that it was the Queen Mother who gave the order.

After a moment of silence, King Jin ordered: "Youzhong, make arrangements, and don't let her be wronged."

Chang Youzhong was taken aback for a moment, "Yes, my lord." Like Cao Jiang a few days ago, he withdrew with a strange expression on his face.

The loyal servant of the Jiang family learned that Jiang Changning had become a beautiful girl, so he wanted to arrange for someone to enter the palace.

Jiang Changning rubbed his forehead and said, "Tell Uncle Nan, you don't have to send anyone in, just find the right person and buy him off."

The little palace maid just entered, it takes time and luck to climb up.

But she is about to enter the palace, so she can't wait that long.

"Girl, the briber is unreliable." Shu Fei said.

Jiang Changning pondered for a moment, "Then let's arrange a few maids. There is no need for internal servants. You can also buy people at the same time. You don't need them to be reliable, as long as they are available when you use them."

"Understood, girl." Shu Fei replied.

From announcing the draft to actually entering the palace for the draft, there was one and a half months for the girls to prepare.

All governments are very active in the draft, after all, they are very young.

In order for the girl in the family to stand out in the draft, she stays in the palace as a nobleman.

All the mansions recruited people released from the palace to return to the mansion to teach the girls how to behave.

However, there is a certain number of people who come out of the palace every year, and they are capable. Most of them have been invited back by rich and powerful families.

There are still a small part, or return home, or disappear.

Although the banker has been an official for generations, he is really not ranked in the capital of Lord Mancheng.

Just when the Zhuang family was looking for someone, and they were desperately looking for someone, Princess Runan sent an aunt surnamed Peng, "Aunt Peng is serving by the Queen Mother."

The Zhuang family knew in their hearts that Zhuang Qingyan and Zhuang Qingchan were in Jiang Changning's favor.

Mrs. Wu offended Mrs. Zhuang not long ago, and was beaten by Mrs. Zhuang again.

When it came to arranging for the girls to learn the rules, she didn't dare to make small moves indiscriminately.

Let people tidy up the open flower courtyard and teach the girls how to use it.

On this day, after the girls had breakfast with Mrs. Zhuang, Jiang Changning, Zhuang Qingyan, and Zhuang Qingchan went to the Open Flower Courtyard led by Mrs. Dong.

"Biao girl, third girl, and fourth girl, this is the aunt the family invited from the palace to teach the girls etiquette and rules. Her surname is Peng." Mrs. Dong introduced each other.

"Hello, Aunt Peng." The three girls greeted each other with blessings.

Aunt Peng looked at the three girls with their own characteristics, with a slight smile on their serious faces.

Her gaze stayed on Jiang Changning for a moment longer.

She was indeed an incomparably exquisite and peerless beauty, no wonder that master would miss her.

"Hello, three girls." Aunt Peng returned the salute gracefully.

"Aunt Peng, I will leave the three girls to you." Mrs. Dong said politely.

"We must do our best." Aunt Peng bowed.

When Mrs. Dong went out, Aunt Peng coughed lightly and said, "The three girls are not nervous. Although time is tight, just learn the same rules slowly."

"Yes." The three replied respectfully.

"Tomorrow, from the three quarters of the chen to the hour of you, we will learn the rules. Now, the three girls are invited to walk around the house according to their usual habits." Aunt Peng said.

The three of them gasped, they had to learn the rules for five hours a day.

Both Zhuang Qingyan and Zhuang Qingchan looked at Jiang Changning worriedly. Jiang Changning was weak and sick, could he bear it?
Jiang Changning smiled at the two of them, her body is really not that weak.

Being weak and sick was Wu's excuse to isolate her from Zhuang Jike, and she was happy to go along with it.

According to Aunt Peng's instructions, the three of them walked around the house casually.

Aunt Peng quietly observed the walking and sitting postures of the three of them. It was no big problem whether they were girls from the official family.

Don't look back when you say anything, don't lift your lips when you speak.Don't move your knees when you sit, don't shake your skirt immediately.

Of course, there are still many flaws and areas that need to be improved. For example, Zhuang Qingchan often hunches with her chest in her back, and Zhuang Qingyan likes to stare, her eyes are protruding, giving people a sense of fierceness.

Two quarters of an hour later, Aunt Peng called to stop, "Okay, girls, that's it for today, please go back and have a good rest, see you tomorrow."

The three saluted and said, "Auntie, see you tomorrow."

At three o'clock the next day, the three girls arrived at the open garden, and Aunt Peng was already waiting for them.

Aunt Peng taught them how to lower their heads when standing so that they would look docile.

When looking at people, the eyes should not squint.

How to go when taking a handkerchief.

How to walk when holding a fan.

Aunt Peng explained and guided in detail one by one, Zhuang Qingyan and Zhuang Qingchan studied very seriously.

Jiang Changning studied casually, she thought about it, since the Queen Mother wants to let her into the palace, no matter how badly she learns the rules, she will be marked.

So, why does she have to work so hard?

　Sorry, Lulu, I misremembered, it was only after Chapter 18.
