Harem strategy

Chapter 100 Thinking of the Year

Yan Shurong followed the emperor after the emperor got married, but she has always been very transparent and her sense of existence is too weak. If she hadn't come out to re-elect the show girl this time, everyone would have forgotten her.Those show girls didn't know there was such a candidate at all, and they didn't go to Yan Shurong's side to visit the pier, so some people panicked, for fear that they would be brushed off.

With the variable Yan Shurong, the matter of re-election is really uncertain.

"Why is there no concubine Shu?"

"Concubine Shu is pregnant, how can she come out for re-election?"

"That's true. It seems that Concubine Shu doesn't like to be top-notch." If she likes to be top-notch, let alone pregnant, even if she is about to give birth, she will come to re-elect these beautiful girls. There is also a certain threat.

Being able to make a choice in candidates is definitely an important step.

Even the Queen Mother was a little surprised when she heard that Concubine Shu was not involved in this draft, "Are you saying that she is too confident and thinks that the emperor will not neglect her, or does she really just not care?"

Gong Nai said: "According to this servant, Concubine Shu values ​​the child in her womb more."

The Queen Mother said: "She knows who is more important than whom." Having a piece of meat in her stomach is much better than competing for favor, but the Queen Mother didn't say anything about Concubine Shu.

Mingya will definitely pass the re-election.

It's just that the queen suddenly pulled Yan Shurong out, which really surprised people.

But think about it, Yan Shurong's grade is also enough for that qualification.The Queen Mother felt that there were still fewer concubines in this palace.

"What did Min Huai'an say?" the Queen Mother asked.

Gong Nai said: "Wang Chongyi is a smart person."

Wang Chongyi would not confront the Queen Mother on the face of it, what's more, could it really prevent Wang Mingya from entering the palace?
At that time, the queen mother can make a decree alone, so why bother to do such a boring thing?

"Now I can also say that I miss the past." There was nothing else to do in the palace draft, Yuan Jieyu went to chat with Li Jialuo, the emperor hadn't been to the harem for many days because he was busy with the previous affairs.

The women in the palace are all making up their minds among the new show girls, so the harem is quieter than before.

It was rare to have a few days of leisure, Yuan Shuhua and Li Jialuo read books and coaxed the third prince, living a very comfortable life.

After listening to Yuan Shuhua's words, Li Jialuo said with a smile: "It's only been three years, and you say you miss those years."

"Three years is not a short time. I feel that I have aged a lot. The main reason is that I haven't seen my family members for more than three years." Yuan Shuhua is also loved by thousands of people at home, but in the palace, but Be careful everywhere, those with high status have to salute them, and those with low status mostly have other thoughts.

Li Jialuo said: "Not long ago, didn't you say that your father might be transferred back to the capital?"

Yuan Shuhua's father had been the chief envoy of Guangdong Province for five or six years.Ordinarily should change the place.

"Well, I wrote again last time, saying that it might be transferred to another place. I guess it will take several years elsewhere."

Guangdong Province is far away from the capital, Li Jialuo said: "When the time comes to Beijing to report on my work, I will always see you."

Yuan Shuhua said: "That's the only way to go." Her parents in her family were kind to her, but her father also had concubine children.

Originally, Yuan Shuhua also accepted the letter this time. The letter said that someone in their Yuan family planned to send the beautiful girl into the palace again. Yuan Shuhua was very unhappy when she saw it. How difficult is it?

Now I even write a letter to ask myself to take care of me.Yuan Shuhua directly replied a letter, expressing that she didn't have that ability, if the Yuan family really wanted to select someone to enter the palace, then everyone would go their separate ways in the future.

Yuan Shuhua knew the Yuan family's plan, but because she hadn't given birth to a child in the past three years, she was anxious, but this way was really annoying.

Fortunately, her parents were on her side, otherwise she would really feel too chilled.

Some people in the Yuan family want to poach the corners of their parents in the glory of their parents, it is really unreasonable!

So Yuan's family didn't give it away this time, so Yuan Shuhua doesn't have to worry anymore.

"Did someone from your natal family say that they want to send someone into the palace?" Yuan Shuhua thought of her own family, and she thought of Concubine Shu's natal family. Concubine Shu is favored, maybe someone will borrow it all.

Li Jialuo said: "Several generations of the martial arts family have been single-handed, and the father was born in a poor family. If you say that there are really no people in this clan, the sisters in the family, the second sister is married, and a few younger sisters are all young. Of the two younger sisters from the second uncle, one is also getting married, and the other is a concubine, so no one wants to come to the draft."

"Hello again, my mother's family has a simple population and there are no such messy things. Our Yuan family has a large population and has all kinds of people to support. This time, they sent me a letter saying that they will send people into the palace and ask me to take care of them. It turned out to be hidden from my parents, which made my parents very angry, and then my parents reprimanded the whole family, and even waived all the annual gifts given to them in previous years, so they became anxious. "

After hearing this, Li Jialuo asked: "Didn't it mean that only the daughters of officials above the fifth rank can be drafted? Your relatives are already fifth rank officials?"

"What, that family had a good idea. They wanted to hide it from my parents, and told me that it was my parents' idea. Then they saw me and agreed, and then told my parents Go, let my parents think it's my idea, and let that daughter recognize my parents as godmother, it's a beautiful idea, it's really good things will be taken up."

It turned out to be a double-deception, treating everyone as fools.

Li Jialuo said with a smile: "Could it be that this family thinks that they are too smart, and others listen to them?"

Yuan Shuhua also smiled and said: "That's not the case, it's just plain annoying. Look at me, what are you doing telling you these bad things? It's almost lunch time, so I'll take my leave first."

"Just use it here, don't tell me I don't even have the ability to take care of your meal here?" Li Jialuo said with a smile: "You don't want to leave."

"Alright," Yuan Shuhua said, "I've been very envious of your small kitchen for a long time, and I must try it today."

As one of the four concubines, she can have her own small kitchen in the palace, and Li Jialuo is pregnant again, so there is everything in the small kitchen.

Over there, the re-selection of the show girls is in full swing. The re-selection is one by one, so that the show girls can show their talents. Back then, what Li Jialuo performed was writing.

Miss Zhang bowed to Concubine De, Concubine Ning, Concubine Jing, Yan Shurong, and Wang Chongyi, and reported her origin and name.

He even secretly glanced at Concubine De.It's just that Concubine De didn't show much enthusiasm.

Seeing that Concubine De didn't speak, Concubine Jing said, "Zhang Xiunv, what are you good at?"

It is said that this beautiful girl is still related to Concubine De, but Concubine De is in the palace now, which means her position sounds nice, she doesn't fear her at all.

The people I arranged also checked, and it was rumored that this Zhang Xiunv was in Chunfang Palace, and Concubine Huan Shu also said that she had a relationship with her by beating around the bush, which gave Concubine Jing a reason not to like her.

Miss Zhang smiled slightly, and said: "Return to Concubine Jing, the servant girl can play the flute."

Flute?Concubine Jing said: "Bring her a flute."

Because show girls have to prepare their talents, they have prepared all kinds of things. According to the regulations, they are not allowed to use the things they bring, otherwise, who knows if there are any tricks in it?
Miss Zhang took the flute and played a song Shang Qingyun. Concubine Jing stopped drinking after listening to it halfway, and said: "I heard this, I really have a headache, so don't play it anymore. Whoever listens to this kind of flute more often?" It's going to hurt."

Tears fell from what Ms. Zhang said. She thought she played the flute very well. Does anyone in the family say that she has a beautiful flute sound?To be demoted like this by Concubine Jing.

Concubine Jing said this, but she would not choose Miss Zhang. As for the others, Concubine Jing wanted to see if someone did the right thing with her.

Among the last five people, Yan Shurong seconded Concubine Jing, Concubine Ning chose Hua, and she didn't like Miss Zhang, but Concubine De chose Ruyi, but three of them had already chosen Hua, and Wang Chongyi still chose Ruyi. doesn't work anymore.

Miss Zhang was eliminated.

The show girl who was waiting outside saw Miss Zhang come out with red circles under her eyes. In this situation, she must have not been selected. She was a little confident at first, but now she is a little worried. It's also related, why was it eliminated?

Could it be that it has something to do with Concubine Shu, and what he said was false?

Wang Mingya didn't have her turn today, so she didn't come over.

Because Miss Zhang was not selected, she had to pack her things and send her out of the palace today.

Miss Zhang didn't want to leave the palace, but someone was watching, what else could she do, her harem dream was shattered.

After Ms. Zhang went back, everyone in the Zhang family knew that their girl had lost the election, and Ms. Zhang locked herself at home and cried for a long time.

Mrs. Zhang was also surprised when she heard that her niece and daughter had been sent back.Came over quickly and asked about the situation, and Miss Zhang told me what happened during the re-election.

Miss Zhang's mother said angrily: "This concubine Jing is too outrageous. Is there such a thing as humiliating? It must be because we are afraid that our girl will enter the palace and take her favor, so that's why she went too far!"

Mrs. Zhang asked Miss Zhang, "Auntie asked you to go into the palace and go directly to Concubine Shu, have you gone?"

Because the girl is in the palace, the news cannot be transmitted, so the Zhang family does not know the situation yet.

Miss Zhang said: "Concubine Shu said she was unwell, so she didn't see me, but Concubine De saw me, and gave me wish when she was re-elected. It's Concubine Jing who hates me, she said that to me, After hearing what she said, no one dared to offend her, so I was sent out of the palace!"

She and Concubine Jing are at odds!

Mrs. Zhang said: "How could this be? I made an agreement with my cousin to let her enter the palace and talk to Concubine Shu. Why didn't I see you? Could it be that you met Concubine De first, so Concubine Shu is not happy?"

Mrs. Zhang's second younger brother and sister heard what the sister-in-law said, and said: "Sister-in-law, don't you know the relationship between the wife of the in-laws and the concubine Shu? Can the concubine Shu listen to what she said? I think it's better for the sister-in-law to find the in-laws." Ma'am, maybe something happened in the middle, now that my girl has come home, maybe I will find a good marriage for her." Generally, those who have passed the primary election can enter the secondary election, girl , When the time comes to find someone, it will be very good.

Just thinking about Concubine Jing's words, if they spread out, it would be really bad for my daughter.

After hearing what her younger siblings said, Mrs. Zhang also felt that this was the reason, so she quickly packed up and went to Wu's house.

On the Wu family's side, Yun frowned when she heard the news of her cousin Mrs. Zhang's visit. Of course she knew what her cousin came here for, but she was afraid of seeing Concubine Shu now, so why not? Dare to ask her anything?
However, she already had a countermeasure and invited Mrs. Zhang in. Before Mrs. Zhang asked, Yun sighed: "Cousin, it's not that I didn't tell you what happened last time, it's because my master knew about it, and then told me I scolded, my master said, the Zhang family is not our Wu family, the people from the Zhang family send people into the palace, this is poaching corners for our Wu family, and also poaching corners for Concubine Shu, and said that if I dare to enter the palace Say, you are going to divorce me back, you say, the master has said this, do I dare to go into the palace and say it?"

These words left Mrs. Zhang speechless, what else can she do? People have already told her about being divorced. In fact, Concubine Shu has a prince now, and she still has one in her stomach. Whose hand will keep the emperor, say the worst thing, even if the emperor has despised Concubine Shu, as long as she has a prince, she will still live well.

"Then why didn't you say hello to me in advance? Do you know that I'm being blamed by my second sibling now." Mrs. Zhang said.

After hearing this, Yun said, "Cousin, do you think I don't want to talk about it, it's just that the master is angry with me and won't let me go out, and even said he won't let me bring you news, lest you come to me again and say something else It's something." Instead, he pushed the matter to Wu Zhengdao.

Mrs. Zhang was very angry when she heard this, good Wu Zhengdao, don't ask our Zhang family if you have anything to do in the future!

"Hmph, I think you will only listen to your master for the rest of your life. If you are so useless, I can't be bothered to care about you! Just look at it, will your eldest daughter be thinking about her biological mother's death when she grows up? That's it! Don't ask us for help then!"

Mrs. Zhang left angrily, and Mrs. Yun sighed.

The current master has no hope of becoming an official. Fortunately, he has the title of Duke of the county, so he no longer relies on anyone to find an official for him.

Moreover, his daughter was pregnant again and was promoted to Concubine Shu. Wu Zhengdao felt that he was begging others for what?
As long as he waited well, his daughter in the palace could earn him something back.

Now in this capital, who else would dare to look down on him?

Of course, Wu Zhengdao had an intuition, or because the emperor didn't give him an official position, he didn't dare to do anything too much, for fear of being impeached by the censor again.

Can the empress in the palace decide for herself? Wu Zhengdao is really not sure, because he is also guilty, especially when thinking about Qian, what he is most afraid of is that his eldest daughter will be provoked, and then borrow money He couldn't afford to deal a heavy blow to the Wu family because of his affairs.

When he heard that Mrs. Zhang came and left angrily, Wu Zhengdao still praised Yun.

At the beginning, I was just a Jinshi master, but this cousin of the Yun family looked down on me in various ways, and Wu Zhengdao didn't like this marriage very much. Now that the feng shui is changing, this Mrs. Zhang still can't see the situation clearly, and always puts on airs, When begging for help, she still thinks that others will bow her head to her, and she doesn't look at who is begging whom.

Thinking of this, Wu Zhengdao was very proud, how proud he must be to have a daughter who is a favorite concubine.I don't know how proud I will be when I give birth to a son, with the support of Concubine Shu in the palace, and the grandson who is the prince.

But the current situation is that he doesn't have a son yet, so Wu Zhengdao didn't even go to Yun's room, but went directly to the courtyard of his concubine's room. He insisted on giving birth to a son!
"What did you say? Wu Zhengdao had a stroke?" The emperor was still taken aback when he heard the news.He didn't give Wu Zhengdao an official, it was also for the good of Concubine Shu and the third prince. Such a foreign family gave him too much power, and it was easy to cause trouble. Without power, even troubles would be limited.

Who knew that it was like this, and something happened.

But that's okay, it's safer.

It's just that Concubine Shu is still pregnant with a child, what if she can't bear the news after hearing the news?
