After Xia Kelian and Tian Xiaoan had dinner at Xia's house in the afternoon, they went back in the carriage again.

Because after hearing Aunt Rong's story, Xia Kehua was actually left in her house by Xia Keyu, Xia Kelian was furious for a while, she was already uncomfortable, and now she felt even more uncomfortable.

She is Xia Keyu's biological sister who is connected by blood. Xia Keyu begged Xia Keyu for so long before, but Xia Keyu didn't let her live in the county lord's mansion.

Now that Xia Kehua, a distant relative, was allowed to live in, how could she not be angry.

Along the way, I don't know how many times I cursed Xia Keyu in my heart.

When she returned to her wedding room, intending to touch up her makeup, she found that the small box she had specially used to hold jewelry had been pried open.

Inside the small box, there are some gold jewelry and emerald jade that her mother gave her as a dowry!

Xia Kelian was so angry that her head was buzzing, she directly took the small box back, and asked Mrs. Tian and Sister Tian:
"Who took my jewelry?"

Mrs. Tian immediately said with a dark face: "What kind of tone are you talking about? I am your elder. How can anyone speak to an elder like this?"

In the past, Xia Kelian always pretended to be weak and considerate, but now that her valuable jewelry has been stolen, she can't care about her dignity anymore.

At that moment, he only said coldly: "Mom, I lost my things, of course I should ask about it." As he spoke, he began to glance at the faces of the two of them.

Sister Tian's eyes flickered, and she pretended to be disgusted and said: "Who would take your pile of worthless things?"

Xia Kelian didn't expect this group of people to be so shameless, she simply said: "In that case, I'd better report to the officials."

As soon as Sister Tian heard that she was going to report to the police, she found that Xia Kelian was serious, she panicked and shouted, "We are all a family, why bother to report to the police."

Tian Xiaoan also came out to smooth things over at this time, pulled Xia Kelian and said: "Just treat it as my mother and sister who want to try it on. We are all a family, so what are you and me?"

Xia Kelian was so angry that she sneered, she had seen the shamelessness of this family.

In the end, she forced Sister Tian to hand over the jewelry before she gave up.

It's just that, this big sister Tian was completely offended.Sister Tian looked at this sister-in-law as if she were an enemy.

As for Xia Keyu, she knew everything about Xia Kelian's experiences in the Tian family.

The original body in the previous life was in the Tian family, but he was tortured.She didn't believe that Xia Kelian would be that exception.

Let Xia Kelian enjoy all this.

Just when Xia Keyu was about to rest for a while, the empress suddenly invited her into the palace for a chat.

Xia Keyu was at a loss, she really didn't know why the queen called her into the palace.

The queen looked kindly, and personally poured a cup of tea for Xia Keyu:
"The weather was hot some time ago, so I didn't call you into the palace, and I haven't seen you for quite some time."

Xia Keyu hurriedly picked up the teacup with trepidation and said, "Thank you Empress Empress for your understanding~"

Now that the queen saw Xia Keyu, she was as affectionate as seeing her own daughter, and she only said gently:
"I came to you today because I wanted to discuss something with you. The prince's marriage was annulled earlier, and the prince also told me the real situation. Thanks to your help in this matter, otherwise the prince's reputation will not be guaranteed. I really appreciate you~”

The Queen's words were extremely sincere, and her eyes were full of sincerity.

Xia Keyu hurriedly evaded and said:
"I just discovered it by accident. The empress was not in the palace at that time, and it was impossible to find it with the two men. It was just an unintentional act."

The empress is also very satisfied with Xia Keyu's not taking credit.

Immediately, he ordered someone to bring over a stack of exquisite albums, and only then did he clarify his intention: "Now that I have returned to the palace, the prince's marriage has to be put on the agenda. I will discuss with His Majesty, and in the past half month, I will choose A few show girls come out."

With that said, he handed the album to Xia Keyu, and said with a smile:
"I am very satisfied with your level of judging people. You can take this book back and have a look. At the end of this month, the beautiful women will enter the palace. At that time, you and I will select candidates together."

Xia Keyu took the booklet pretending to be calm.

Probably the matter of Jiang Shuya left a psychological shadow on the queen and the prince, so this time I had to ask myself to get involved.

The nanny next to the queen also specially told Xia Keyu about the process of the draft.

This prince's draft is different from the emperor's draft, and it is only held in a small area, with a total of 300 people.The women who can be selected are almost all the ladies of officials above the seventh rank.

The first step of the draft is to be in charge of the nuns in the palace first, to eliminate all the girls who are too tall or short, too fat or too thin.This already screens out half of the people.

In the second step, for the remaining 150 people, the eunuchs in the palace will check the facial features, hair, skin, waist, shoulders, neck, and back of the beautiful women, and only those who do not meet the requirements will be screened again.This time at least half of the people were screened out.

In the third step, among the remaining 80 or [-] people, order the show girls to report their birthplace, age and name one by one, and those who are not fluent and have a bad voice will be eliminated.

The fourth step is to observe the women's walking posture, and the experienced nuns will take the beautiful women to the secret room to carefully examine some private places.After this step, only 30 people were selected.

The fifth step is to let these thirty beautiful women live in the palace for the first month, so as to test the women's temperament, talent and conduct in the world.

Xia Keyu was dumbfounded when he heard this, he didn't expect that there are so many connections for the draft girls in this palace.

What Xia Keyu had to do was to select nine of these 30 people together with the empress.

Among the nine people, there is one concubine, two side concubines, and six concubines for the crown prince, who serve as the East Palace.

The queen did not forget to comfort her: "You don't have to put too much pressure on yourself, if you have any ideas, just say it bluntly, we are not outsiders."

Xia Keyu quickly thanked him, but actually he had already searched his memory, desperately recalling the so-called concubines of the previous prince.

When Xia Keyu returned to his mansion with the album in his arms, he saw that Chu Yuan had already led His Highness the Crown Prince waiting inside the door.

"This is?" Xia Keyu asked puzzled.

Chu Yuan's face was calm, and he motioned to Prince Zheng Rui and said, "Talk to your aunt yourself."

Prince Zheng Rui looked slightly embarrassed, bowed his hands reverently, and then slowly said: "I believe my aunt already knows about the fact that the queen mother is going to draft for my nephew."

Xia Keyu nodded, motioning for him to continue.

Prince Zheng Rui then continued: "My nephew wants to ask my aunt for something, and I hope my aunt will agree."

As soon as these words came out, Xia Keyu also made some estimates in his heart.At the moment, he only said indifferently: "You tell me, I will decide whether to agree or not depending on the situation."
