Chapter 80 Choosing a concubine (3)
"Ok."

With no worries, A Yao readily agreed.

After Yun Qingyin left, several other female workers gathered around, saying all kinds of envious words, wishing that the person following Yun Qingyin was herself.

A Yao responded with a smile.

"Ayao, although Miss Yun has made you such a large sum of money, I'm afraid you won't be able to earn that much if you go out with her. It's about the same as when you stayed in the shop. You might as well not out."

"I have already promised Miss Yun." A Yao said, "Even if Miss Yun doesn't promise to pay me, I will go out with her."

"You, silly, be careful that you are taken to do hard labor by her."

Alian listened to it for a while and didn't listen much. Her thoughts were the same as the other female workers, but she didn't need to persuade Ayao, it would be better if she stumbled.

……

For the ladies from other prefectures, these two days were extremely torturous and full of expectations, but for Yun Qingyin, it was eating and sleeping, sleeping and eating.

Two days passed quickly.

Because the candidates had to go to the palace to pay respects to the queen mother before going to the queen's palace, it still took a lot of time, so Aunt Lan brought her maid to the restaurant before dawn.

Yun Qingyin was taken out of her sleep, and she was in an extremely irritable state, scaring the wives and maidservants who were dressing up Yun Qingyin to reduce their sense of existence as much as possible.

After tossing until dawn, Yun Qingyin was so sleepy that she couldn't open her eyes.

Aunt Lan looked at Yun Qingyin who was wearing good makeup, and she was amazed. This girl is usually a rare beauty, but now after a simple cleaning, she is even more attractive, her eyes are like silk, her eyes are like autumn waves... Forget it Aunt Lan looked at her sleepy eyes and couldn't open them, and smiled helplessly.

"Okay, let her sleep for a while, and call her when the carriage comes over."

The mother-in-law and the maid followed Aunt Lan to go out, Yu Guangyun saw Yun Qingyin's head falling straight on the table,
The maid's facial features were distorted, "No!"

However, the hair that was just tied has been messed up, and the "culprit" has fallen asleep on the table. It can be seen that the maid is heartbroken. If it is not for the fact that Miss Yun is valued by the prince, maybe she They all ran forward and pulled people up directly.

Aunt Lan patted her reassuringly, "I will make up a simpler one later, she can't be too outstanding today."

"If you want her not to be outstanding, it's better to let her change her face." The maid said.

The woman on the side also said, "This girl is indeed... Just put on some rouge, and she immediately seems to be a different person, her temperament is completely different, I always feel that she looks at you as if to..." It's like seducing someone.

But seeing Yun Qingyin's unruly sleeping posture, the mother-in-law couldn't say what to say next.

Regarding this matter, Aunt Lan also had a headache. After all, she was going to enter the palace, so she couldn't be too perfunctory. It was impossible not to stick a little rouge and powder.

"When she wakes up, you put more powder on her face to make her look weaker."

"Yes, ma'am."

Yun Qingyin didn't sleep for a long time when she was woken up by the call. At least she regained some energy. She still remembered to ask Liu Zhu to go to the jewelry shop to find A Yao, and when she got into the carriage, she carried a big package.

Aunt Lan didn't even look at what was inside.

Yun Qingyin had been delayed in sleeping for some time, and when she got into the carriage, Aunt Lan ordered the groom to hurry to the gate of the palace.

A Yao looked at Yun Qingyin several times, but she didn't dare to speak.

Yun Qingyin was uncomfortable being watched by her, "I have flowers on my face?"

A Yao suddenly became less nervous, "I didn't dare to recognize the girl when I first came up, it's really that the girl is very different from usual."

Yun Qingyin touched her face, "It's nothing but whiter than usual."

"Let's not talk about this." Yun Qingyin sat down directly, opened the package, and there were all kinds of jewelry inside. A Yao recognized that these were the jewelry that Yun Qingyin bought from the shop that day, but it seemed that they were not exactly the same up.

Take the hairpin on the top as an example, nothing has changed, but just changing the position, it is much more pleasing to look at, and the same is true for the others.

A Yao was very surprised, "Does the girl still understand this?"

"I changed it according to my idea, does it look good?"

A Yao: "Looks good!"

Yun Qingyin felt relieved, "That's good."

The carriage entered the palace smoothly. Princess An Ning had been waiting at the place where the ladies from various houses who were going to enter the palace today gathered. When she saw Yun Qingyin coming, she immediately went up to meet her. Seeing her pale face, she hurriedly asked, "You uncomfortable?"

"No..." Immediately thought of Aunt Lan's exhortations, "Yeah! I slept a little late last night."

After finishing speaking, Yun Qingyin blinked at her again, Princess An Ning understood, and said, "Then I will take you to the imperial grandmother to rest for a while."

A Yao was stunned, didn't Miss Yun say that she just came to a place, why did she come to the palace!

Princess An Ning took Yun Qingyin to Shoukang Palace. Cui Madam, who was beside the queen mother, remembered Yun Qingyin and was also very enthusiastic about Yun Qingyin. Seeing her expression, she also cared, "Is Miss Yun not feeling well?"

"Maybe it's because I'm not used to the sudden cold, and I slept a little late last night."

Nanny Cui nodded, "Although this is not a serious problem, we still need to pay attention to it. I won't take you to visit the Queen Mother before the others come. The princess and the girl will follow me to the side hall to rest."

"Thank you, Ma'am." Yun Qingyin was very polite, and took a box from A Yao who had already prepared it, "This is a piece of jewelry I saw outside the palace, and I think it is very suitable for the queen mother, please do not want it dislike."

Nanny Cui quickly took it, "Miss Yun, you are too polite, I will definitely hand it over to the Queen Mother."

Yun Qingyin took out another one, "This is for Nanny, it's suitable for Nanny to wear on a daily basis."

Nurse Cui laughed so hard that she couldn't see her eyes. After arranging the few people, she went to the Queen Mother's bedroom. Nurse Cui devoted herself to bringing the jewelry that Yun Qingyin had given to the Queen Mother.

The Empress Dowager opened it and took a look, "It's true that I have put a lot of thought into it."

Mother Cui said, "Miss Yun is indeed a woman who knows how to advance and retreat. Princess Anning has also become more calm when dealing with her."

The queen mother glanced at her, "What did she bribe you with?"

"You can't hide it from the queen mother." Cui Mama didn't hide it, "Miss Yun also gave one to my servant, and the servant likes it very much."

The queen mother closed the box, "This girl understands you."

"The main reason is that she is a caring person. Who doesn't like a caring person?" Cui Momo rubbed the queen mother's shoulders, "Speaking of which, this girl is also pitiful. After finally growing up and reaching the age of marriage, she was told that her father is not My dear father, my mother is not my own mother, so I brought a handmaiden by my side and left the Marquis Mansion penniless, and opened a restaurant by myself to come to this point, now she has no family and no background, I am afraid it will be difficult to enter the palace."

The queen mother snorted coldly, "She hasn't entered the palace yet, so you are worried."

"Your maidservant is not worrying unnecessarily. Miss Yun is outstanding in appearance, so there is no guarantee that the crown prince will not be moved."

"A prince is a prince after all. No matter how thoughtful he is, he will never choose a woman with no background as his side concubine. Even if he is blinded by beauty for a while without any scruples, do you think the queen will agree?"

This is what it means that Yun Qingyin is absolutely impossible to be selected, Cui Nanny breathed a sigh of relief for Yun Qingyin, "Thank you, Queen Mother, for your guidance."

"It's almost time, let them come over."

Nanny Cui helped the queen mother get up, the queen mother glanced at the box on the table, "give this jewelry to Aijia."

……

Princess An Ning touched the jewelry on her head, and when she heard the empress dowager singing, she looked up and found that the empress dowager was also wearing the jewelry, An Ning touched Yun Qingyin with her elbow, "How can you be sure that the imperial grandmother will wear it? "

Yun Qingyin said, "Nurse Cui is one reason, but the most important thing is, of course, that jewelry suits her."

"It's not easy to know what the emperor's grandmother likes. How did you do it?"

Yun Qingyin said mysteriously, "This is a secret."

Princess An Ning wanted to ask again, but Yun Qingyin acted conscientiously as a patient who was not feeling well, and stopped talking. Looking at Princess An Ning with a sickly, pale face, she couldn't bear it anymore.

As soon as the queen arrived, the audience fell silent, and Princess Anning also lowered her head. If she was not worried about Yun Qingyin, she would definitely not come when the queen appeared.

Following the appearance of the majestic queen and the prince in bright yellow brocade robes, the eyes of noble ladies from aristocratic families could not help but fall on that man, and then shyly withdrew them.

The queen glanced at Princess Anning, but saw that the other party only lowered her head, sighed silently, first bowed to the queen mother, then walked to the phoenix seat and sat down, while Zhao Qinghan sat on the queen's left .

The queen mother said indifferently to Zhao Qinghan, "The girls who came today are all outstanding girls from various families. The Ministry of Rites and the Ai family have already gone through it. Since you are the one who chooses the side concubine, it is naturally according to your heart."

Zhao Qinghan stood up, "The emperor's grandmother has been troubled by this matter. Those who can take on the crown prince's side concubine must be virtuous and virtuous, and their appearance is second. There is no one in the grandson's mind. The emperor's grandmother decides."

The Empress Dowager's expression softened slightly, but she did not intervene in this matter.

"Ai's family is getting old, the choice may not be in your favor, the queen is in charge."

The queen laughed and said, "Since that's the case, the concubine will not shirk."

After the superficial work was over, they entered the competition. The talents that the ladies of each mansion wanted to compete had already been handed over to the queen through the Ministry of Rites. Now that the queen was watching, Zhao Qinghan suddenly said, "That Miss Yun is here too, why isn't she here?" of?"

Yun Qingyin's painting left a deep impression on him, but when he came here today, he noticed that she was a little different from usual.

Sitting there quietly was inexplicably pleasing to the eye, why didn't he notice it before.

Nanny Cui, who was beside the queen mother, smiled and said, "Miss Yun is not very cheerful."

Zhao Qinghan nodded.

The competition was divided into the first half and the second half. Yun Qingyin felt drowsy watching it, and finally got to the middle of the break. When Nanny Sun came to invite Princess Anning, Princess Anning's attitude was as cold as ever.

"No, I'm fine sitting here, you go back."

Grandma Sun was afraid that the knot between the mother and daughter would not be untied, so she tried to persuade, "Princess, it's the same if you go to the empress and salute before you come back."

"The queen mother is busy with the imperial brother's side concubine affairs today, so I'd better not disturb her."

Princess An Ning helped Yun Qingyin arrange the jewelry without raising her head. Seeing that she was determined, Nanny Sun could only go back with a sad face. When she was about to leave, Princess An Ning stopped her.

"Princess, would you like to go?"

Princess An Ning gave her two jewelry, "You can take this back, the queen mother can wear it if she likes it, and forget it if she doesn't want to."

"Hey!"

Nanny Sun took it with a smile, and held it in her hand like holding a treasure, "Your Majesty must like it very much."

By the second half, the jewelry had already appeared in the queen's hair, and the piece that Princess An Ning was holding casually also complemented the queen's palace attire today.

Those aristocratic ladies looked at the jewelry on the empress dowager's head, wondering if it was because of the extra layers of filters, they thought they were very beautiful, so they asked the maids around them to find out if it was made by a skilled craftsman in the palace After inquiring, I realized that it was all sent by Yun Qingyin.

The love for jewelry really surpassed all kinds of discord, and today Yun Qingyin didn't even play, let alone their opponent, so she sent the maid beside her to ask if there were any other jewelry.

"Yes, but I didn't bring so many today."

"Then can you show it to our lady?"

"It's quite expensive, your lady..."

"money is not a problem!"

"okay!"

This is what Yun Qingyin was waiting for, and when other people saw that Yun Qingyin opened a store, they all came to ask, Yun Qingyin directly pushed A Yao to deal with it, and by the way, also established the name of the jewelry shop outside the palace.

The jewelry that she brought was sold out quickly, Yun Qingyin counted them, saw Princess An Ning who was stunned at the side, reluctantly gave half of it to her, and Princess An Ning immediately put it in her purse.

Naturally, the movement on their side was not hidden from the few people sitting in the main seat, but the queen mother turned a blind eye. Now that the queen wants to ask her daughter for forgiveness, it is naturally impossible to blame her more, and Zhao Qinghan is after all Man, it's even worse to say something directly about these things.

So for a while, no one came to stop Yun Qingyin.

Until the eunuch's sound, the emperor arrived.

The queen frowned slightly, and got up to meet the emperor.

Everyone greeted, the majestic figure stood in the field and said, "Let's all get flat."

"I just saw many people gathered at Yun girl's place, what are they doing?"

Yun Qingyin wanted to curse in her heart, why so many people in the venue didn't look at her and only looked at her, but she still answered honestly, "Sell jewelry."

"Oh?" The emperor seemed curious, "On the occasion when my crown prince is choosing a concubine, are you selling jewelry here?"

This question made people shudder.

The Queen came out, "Your Majesty..."

The emperor raised his hand to stop her, "Queen, don't worry, I just asked her."
