The next morning, Yan Qing told the ministers about the selection of the attendant. After some discussion, she spoke coldly: "The conditions for my selection of the attendant are very simple. In addition to outstanding knowledge, good conduct, and calm behavior, there are also Extraordinary courage. If you have a suitable grandson in your family, you can recommend him, whether he is a first-grade official or a seventh-grade official, as long as he meets the requirements, I will consider them equally."

The ministers were stunned when they heard this, and then whispered among themselves.

This is an excellent opportunity. Not only can I enter the harem as a man, but I can also be an upright official. If I can win the respect of His Majesty in the future, I will have a great career.

"Although it is a good thing to select an attendant, you adults should make a calm decision." Yan Qing saw the reactions of the ministers in his eyes and added unhurriedly, "First of all, the number of people cannot be as large as the draft. In the early stage, I only plan to choose one person, and how many will be retained in the future depends on them. "

The ministers fell silent and listened respectfully.

"Secondly, recommend me no matter what kind of crooked melon or jujube. The father knows best what kind of virtue your son has. If you try to fool me by pretending to be good, I will have no good fruit for you to eat." Yan Qing's voice was cold and majestic. , "My selection as an attendant not only tests knowledge, but also tests character. Don't even think about those who try to cheat and get through. I'm not that easy to fool."

The ministers bowed and their momentum increased by three points: "I don't dare!"

Yan Qing turned to look at Wen Jin. Wen Jin nodded and spoke slowly: "In order to ensure the absolute fairness of the selection of attendants, I will set up three tests, which will be presided over by Your Majesty and I. If you are not good at knowledge, you don't have to take part, but you can Falsehood is a crime of deceiving the emperor. I hope you will think twice before doing so and not displease Your Majesty."

"I will never dare!"

Just don't dare, it will save some random people from making up the numbers and wasting their time in screening.

After things were arranged, the ministers of the court became busy one after another. After leaving their duties, they quickly called out their sons. They were naturally happy because they were outstanding in knowledge, and their tone was very excited: "I can't wait to participate in the enke of the next year. Your Majesty has Do you know what it means to be an attendant? It means that you can be on duty in the imperial study. When your majesty discusses important affairs of the government, the attendant will stand by and listen; when your majesty reviews memorials, the attendant will wait on you; your majesty. When asked about the government's opinions, if the attendant can answer well, your majesty will look at you differently, and your promotion will not be a problem in the future. You must seize this opportunity, enter the imperial study room, be careful in your words and deeds, and do your best. …”

Balabala gave her a bitter reminder and taught her. Even before she participated in the selection, she seemed to have already seen the scenery of becoming His Majesty's favorite in the future.

For some incompetent sons, the father came home and began beating his chest: "You treasonous son, treasonous son! My father has been telling you to study hard all day long, but you hang out with those bad friends every day! Now it's better, there is a great deal of good things ahead of you. You don’t have the ability to seize the opportunity. Why do you think I have such a bastard? I’ll invite a teacher over tomorrow. If you don’t study hard, I’ll beat you to death!”

Some people are full of hope, and some people hate that iron cannot be made into steel. The decision to select an attendant has caused an uproar among the major families. Among them, the most unlucky ones are those who do not like to read on weekdays and like to drink, have fun, and fight with their friends. The dandy boys who visited the brothel were instantly plunged into dire straits, and their wails kept coming and going.

However, talent cannot be cultivated in a day, and it is obviously of no use to improvise.

There are more and more affairs in court, and officials are too busy to keep their feet on the ground.

On the ninth day of September, Ji Weiyu, the new crown prince of Chu State, arrived at Dayong Imperial City. Officials from the Ministry of Rites were ordered to welcome the distinguished guests from afar. Her Majesty the Queen, together with the imperial concubine, held a banquet in Guangyang Palace to entertain the envoys.

Greeted by officials from the Ministry of Rites, the Chu envoys quickly entered the palace to meet with Her Majesty the Queen.

In addition to the new crown prince Ji Weiyu, he was also accompanied by Chu Kingdom Ming Wang Ji Chenghao and Jing Wang Ji Chengyin. The three princes came to Dayong together. Anticipate.

Dayong officials welcomed the distinguished guests all the way to Guangyang Hall, followed by the envoys, escorted by the imperial guards on both sides. When they arrived at the palace steps, the imperial guards dispersed and guarded, and the officials of the Ministry of Rites led the envoys into the hall.

The atmosphere in the main hall is solemn and majestic. The king of a country sits on the throne, accompanied by his royal husband. The important ministers of Dayong, including the four vassal kings, sit quietly on the right side of the seats. The seats on the left are all empty. The seats reserved for envoys and distinguished guests.

Ji Weiyu was sitting at the front and arrived at the foot of the palace steps. He quickly raised his head and glanced at Yan Qing, who was sitting in the throne room. Then he lowered his eyes and bent down: "The little king is Ji Weiyu, the new crown prince of the Chu Kingdom. He is here specially according to the order of our emperor. To meet the new Emperor Yong, to meet Her Majesty the Queen, long live, long live, long live!"

Ji Chenghao and Ji Chengyin looked at Yan Qing in the main seat in surprise. The former didn't know if he had been mentally prepared in advance. He was shocked and just died from Emperor Yan. He quickly lowered his eyes respectfully, while Ji Chengyin was stubborn. Staring at Yan Qing, she said in disbelief: "You...you are..."

Isn't this the goddess doctor who went to detoxify Ji Weiyu a few months ago? How could she be the Queen of Dayong?

"The prince and the two princes don't need to be polite, please take a seat." Yan Qing seemed not to see Ji Chengyin's eyes, and smiled faintly, "Your distinguished guests have come all the way, thank you for your hard work."

"I don't have to work hard." Ji Weiyu said sincerely, "It is a great honor for me to have the honor to look up to Her Majesty the Queen in this life——"

"Ji Weiyu." Ji Chengyin's voice was cold, as if he finally understood the cause and effect, "It turns out that this is all a conspiracy set by you!"

As soon as these words came out, the hall was silent for a moment.

The important officials of Dayong looked puzzled: "What's wrong?"

"What's going on?"

"What is Prince Jing saying?"

"Seventh brother." Ji Chenghao frowned, "Please pay attention to your manners."

The Chu envoys also looked at Ji Chengyin's face, "What's wrong with Prince Jing? The mission to Dayong is the emperor's intention, and has nothing to do with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"What's wrong with Seventh Brother?" Ji Weiyu sat leisurely at the table and smiled faintly, "No matter what happens, please control your emotions, otherwise Her Majesty the Queen will think that all the princes of Chu are so unruly and lose their composure regardless of the occasion."

Ji Chengyin's face turned pale and blue, and he suddenly thought of Ji Weiyu's words "You are not worthy of her" when he asked to marry Doctor Yan a few months ago. At this time, he finally understood what was going on.

He suddenly understood why Ji Weiyu came to Dayong and insisted on bringing him along. That's why.
