Pampered Tian's Wife: The Little Weaver Girl in the Farmhouse

Chapter 570 The Election Is Over

Zi Ling successfully married Tie Mo'er, and when she returned home in three days, Qiao Yun also went back to another courtyard to meet the newlywed couple.Seeing how Tie Muer cared for Zi Ling in every possible way, he was finally relieved.Now that Ziling has her own home, and the matter of Yuyun has come to an end temporarily, Qiaoyun can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

The Duke's Mansion has been rectified. Although there are still some daily affairs to be dealt with, it is not troublesome.The matter of Zi Ling and Yu Yun has been resolved satisfactorily, so at this time, Qiao Yun can finally take a break.

Ever since Chu Ruifeng left the capital, Qiao Yun has been busy with various things, so she is not used to it when she is idle so suddenly.When she was busy, she didn't have the time to think about Chu Ruifeng, and when she was free, Qiao Yun realized that all her thoughts were about Chu Ruifeng.

It is already very hot in May in the capital, and Qiaoyun is not in a good mood, so she is lazy and doesn't like to move every day, and she can't lift her spirits all day long.Seeing it in her eyes, the eldest princess couldn't help but feel a little worried, so she often persuaded Qiaoyun to go out for a walk and find something interesting to do.

Just at this time, Taipingzhai also sent a letter, asking Qiaoyun how to arrange it next, Qiaoyun suddenly became interested, and went to Qinglei to discuss things.After discussing with Qing Lei, Qiao Yun decided to open several shops in the capital. One was to house the staff of Taiping Village, and the other main purpose was naturally to collect intelligence and recruit available talents.

Of course, if you want to collect information, restaurants and teahouses are a good idea, and the other is gambling houses and brothels.Qiaoyun had money envoys in his hand and sufficient manpower, so he asked Qinglei to take people to see the place, and opened a restaurant and a teahouse in the most prosperous area of ​​the capital, and at the same time, set up a gambling house.

In this way, through means of hiring and prostitution, and using Chu Ruifeng and Tie Mo'er's contacts in the capital, those people in Taiping Village all have brand new identities.Become the management buddy of Qiaoyun's business, etc., so that he can go down the mountain to live aboveboard, and can ensure that he has no worries about food and clothing.

Of course, these things cannot be done overnight, and it will always take some time.Qiaoyun was busy with these things, and finally felt a little happy.

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye it is June, the day of the general election.At this time, all the beautiful women recommended by states and counties across the country came to the capital, and the capital suddenly became lively.The general election held every five years is also a grand event in the capital. For the sake of the draft, the emperor did not tour the capital this year, so he hoped to find a few good-looking women among the beautiful women.

The draft cannot be completed overnight, and it takes several rounds of re-election for the primary election.Although the women who entered the capital were all the outstanding ones selected from all over the country, but when they arrived in the capital, there were still many people who would fail the selection.

The Ministry of Rites arranged people to do the first primary election, and basically half of the people were screened out, and the women who failed the election usually had to return to their hometowns.Of course, some of them are actually not bad, and they will be picked up by many officials' families in the capital.After all, they are able to stand for the election, and they are not ordinary women, and most of them will not return empty-handed.

After the primary selection, the empress sent the maids in the palace to come for the second selection, and this time half of the people were rejected.However, those who are not selected basically do not need to return to their hometowns, and many of them will be selected into the palace as maids, or keep the faces bestowed on various tribes.

After the re-election, the remaining beautiful women will enter the palace on a good day and auspicious day, and the emperor will personally select them.Those who are selected go directly to the palace and are given a position, and will become concubines in the future. Those who are not selected will mostly be assigned to the princes and princes of various prefectures in the capital to be the main concubine or side concubine.In short, the show girls who can make it to the end will generally not be too bad.

On June 26, the emperor personally selected beautiful women in the Hanliang Palace, and the empress accompanied him.Five of the beautiful women came in to meet each other. The queen and the emperor would ask some questions, and then select the women with outstanding appearance and dignified conduct to stay, and the rest were not selected.

The emperor, who was used to seeing all kinds of beauties, naturally had high eyesight. He always felt that these beautiful women in front of him were not that amazing.After watching four or five dials, the emperor became a little impatient, and simply handed over the selection of girls to the queen and left.

The empress has nothing to do with the emperor. This year's show girls are said to be very good, but it is really not easy to find the amazing and unforgettable ones.After all, speaking of such a beautiful woman, it is generally impossible to keep it, and the marriage is probably arranged early.Unless there is a family that particularly wants to enjoy the glory and wealth through the daughter, otherwise, it will not let the outstanding daughter stay at home for too long.

Naturally, it wasn't that there were no good ones, the queen still picked out a lot of good-looking girls from among them.After a day of selection, the queen finally selected [-] beautiful women with good appearance and character, without any blemishes, to stay, and the rest were released from the palace to wait for news.

The [-] selected show girls were all arranged to live in the palace. After discussing with the emperor the next day, the empress and the emperor gave each their names.At the same time, the empress also started to arrange for these women to serve the bed. After all, these people came to the palace to serve the emperor.

The emperor, who has always loved beauty, did not know why, but this time he was a little bit lacking in interest.After only picking a few particularly outstanding Lin Xing, the rest of them stayed aside and ignored them.The emperor's abnormality made the empress a little surprised. Normally, it shouldn't be. These twenty new ladies should make the emperor happy for a while.

But it's not easy for the empress to ask about this kind of thing in person, she has already done what she should do, and as for other things, she doesn't bother to ask.There are so many beauties in the palace nowadays, some of them are tired of seeing the emperor, just follow the emperor's will, too much interference is useless.

In the blink of an eye, June passed, and July came. As soon as it entered July, there was good news. Zi Ling, who had just got married, was actually happy.When the queen hears this, how can she stay idle?The affairs in the palace were simply ignored and left to Concubine Li, and then rushed to Tie Mo'er's mansion excitedly with people to visit Zi Ling.

According to the rules, the average woman is not good at making public in the first three months of pregnancy.But the royal family is different. The royal family values ​​children the most. Once a woman in the royal family gets a little troubled, it will be a big deal, let alone such a happy event as Youxi.

As soon as the imperial doctor diagnosed Zi Ling's happy pulse, Tie Mo'er immediately sent someone to the palace to deliver a letter.When the queen arrived, she saw Zi Ling lying on the bed, and Tie Mu'er accompanied her daughter-in-law with a happy face and carefulness. That appearance was as stupid as it could be.Seeing the queen, she couldn't help laughing.
