Chapter 611 Draft
The queen's decree was passed down, and the whole Dahe's country exploded.

The draft, isn't that a great opportunity for many official girls.In case of being selected, in case a prince is born and the empress has nothing to do, it is very likely that it will be the emperor's own mother in the future.

This is something that many people are eagerly looking forward to.

Therefore, those official girls got ready one after another.

The entire capital of Dahe was bustling, and some idlers in the teahouse were spitting and predicting whose daughter would enter the palace and become a concubine.

Meng Qianyan didn't let himself be idle, but sent the palace staff to tidy up the sixth palace to prepare for the new concubine to live in the palace.

But ever since she went to the main hall that day, Luo Ziyan has never been to Chaofeng Hall again.

She asked Qiying, and Qiying said that the emperor was dealing with memorials every day, or reading and writing, and rarely went out except for going to court.

Qin Wu and he both went to sound out the emperor's tone, but the emperor remained silent and seldom spoke.

If you don't talk, don't talk, if you don't come, don't come.

Now, what should they talk about?

Meng Qianyan didn't know either.

Soon, draft day will arrive.Meng Qianyan sent people to notify Moge Yihualanyi and the emperor respectively.

Because the selection of concubines in the harem is a major event, both the empress dowager and the emperor should participate.

On this day, the weather was fine and warm, and the warm light illuminated the entire palace.

The place for the draft is in the main hall of Chaofeng Hall.

There are four main seats on the upper part, and a group of open spaces below.

The eunuchs and court ladies on both sides stood guard in two rows.

The time for the draft is arranged in the afternoon. At this time, the emperor does not go to court, and the concubine and queen dowager also have time.

As the scheduled time came, Mo Geyi and Hua Lanyi both arrived at the scene.

"Mother's queen, mother's concubine." Meng Qianyan stood up and bowed in a polite manner.

Mo Ge smiled meaningfully, "Okay, Ai's family is here."

Hua Lanyi also had a smile on her face, "Queen, you are really capable. Look at what you have prepared, it is really well done."

"The concubine mother praised it, the concubine mother, the concubine mother, please take the seat."

Mo Geyi and Hua Lanyi sat down side by side, Meng Qianyan also sat on the other side, the seat in the middle belonged to the emperor, and it was still vacant.

"When will it start?" Mo Geyi asked.

Meng Qianyan said: "My minister has already sent someone to call the emperor, and he should be here in a while."

Mo Geyi nodded, and drank tea casually. If Mo Geyi didn't come, it was just a formality. The emperor's selection of concubines had nothing to do with her.

Hua Lanyi was in a good mood.

She had confronted Meng Qianyan so many times, but this was the first time she had the upper hand.

After a while, Hua Lanyi couldn't sit still anymore, "What's the matter? Why hasn't the emperor come yet?"

Meng Qianyan looked at Su Cui, "Go, ask the emperor."

Su Cui went, and after a while, she came back again, "Niang Niang——"

"Where's the emperor?" Hua Lanyi was even more anxious.

"The emperor, he is not in the palace. The eunuch at the main hall said that the emperor just left the palace to go hunting, and he won't be back for a while. Maybe, maybe he won't be back until tomorrow."

After saying this, Hua Lanyi frowned, "The emperor, how could this be so, he went hunting at this juncture."

Meng Qianyan sighed.

Dahe is no better than Yan Dynasty, Dahe has been cold all year round, so there are so many prey.The emperor simply didn't want to participate, so he found an excuse to go out.

But now that we are all ready, can we not choose?
So she said as if nothing had happened, "It's okay, since the emperor is not here, the palace and the empress dowager and concubine are all there, so it's not difficult to choose a few concubines. Pass the word on and let the ladies prepare to come in."

Hua Lanyi was surprised that Meng Qianyan was so calm.

Soon, the first row of beautiful women came in, and the father-in-law on one side was reading the book of beautiful women.

"Queen Yuehe, Queen of Wang Anlian in the Capital Governor's Mansion, is seventeen years old."

"Yao Yiren, the daughter of Yao Zilian, the prefect of Yuncheng, is sixteen years old."

"Zhao Jiaqian, daughter of Zhao Fengyuan, Minister of the Ministry of War, is seventeen years old."

one by one.

row by row.

A brand new, bright red face passed by like a lantern in front of her.

-

The eunuch's high-pitched voice resounded in the hall, Hua Lanyi looked at these beautiful young girls and couldn't help but smile from ear to ear.

Constantly chattering with Mo Geyi and Meng Qianyan.

Meng Qianyan smiled faintly, no matter what Hua Lanyi said, she nodded in agreement.But in fact, she didn't listen to what Hua Lanyi said at all, and her mind had already flown far, far away.

She seemed to see herself drawing a bow and shooting arrows on the roof in the night wind again.

She seemed to see herself sitting on the red sedan chair again, and her mother Xu's eyes were red from crying.

She also saw her disguised as a man in the street.

I also thought of the scene where she took her students to practice on the mountain.

And the father, I don't know what happened to his old man.

There is also Xiaotuanzi, I don't know how tall it is.

Maybe, he will soon catch up with Xiaozhi.

Her nose is sore, but she doesn't want to cry, she doesn't want anyone to see her tears.

She picked up the tea gu, covered it with her wide sleeve, and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes while pretending to drink tea.

"Queen." Hua Lanyi's voice rang in her ear.

"Mother concubine."

"This is a good choice. Take a look. Ai's family has asked someone to record it. Do you have any dissatisfaction? If there is no more, let's make a decision like this."

Meng Qianyan took it in his hand and opened it to read.

It turned out that it was Miss Wang Yuehe who was named Qing Concubine.

Yao Yiren, the daughter of the prefect, was made a nobleman.

There were a few other ladies whom she hadn't noticed before, and they were divided into beauties and beauties.

There are seven in total.

Meng Qianyan nodded, "My ministers are very satisfied, that's all."

"Well, that's good, just these seven, I think it's enough. If there are too many, Yingyingyanyan will be annoying." Hua Lanyi took it back and told the people around him, "Okay, just follow this, and put the masters together. Take them all to their respective palaces. Then look at the queen's arrangement and let them prepare to serve the emperor."

"Yes."

"Oh, Your Majesty, that's all right. Ai's family is also tired. Ai's family will go back first."

"Okay." Meng Qianyan stood up, "I respectfully send my mother and concubine off."

Hua Lan hurriedly left, and the selected girls were also taken out, and the palace was empty again.

Mo Geyi stood up slowly, she looked at Meng Qianyan's smiling face, she saw the numbness behind this skin.

She sighed secretly, and said softly: "Qianyan, don't take these things too seriously. Many things are like this. Whether we are happy or not, it will happen. We have no way to avoid it, and we have no way to refuse it. I can only accept it. These are also the roads Aijia has traveled."

"Is it true for everyone sitting in this seat?"

"It should be. The Ai family has never seen an emperor with only a queen."

"I see, thank you, mother, for comforting me."

Mo Geyi patted her, "The emperor didn't come, so it can be seen that the most important thing in my heart is you, you should look away."

"I will be the queen mother."

"The Ai family has also gone back."
