The self-disciplined princess wins

Chapter 79
"Aunt Liuyun, I still have a few things to ask you." Zhang Anchu said to Liuyun who was beside the emperor.

Aunt Liuyun took a step forward, she was very respectful, and replied: "Imperial Concubine, if you want to ask any questions, I will definitely answer honestly."

She glanced at Fu Zhiyuan, and just looked at her calmly. In front of the emperor, she naturally behaved cautiously.

Zhang Anchu didn't know about Liuyun, but she also heard Yurou tell a lot about her deeds. She is a vigorous and decisive person with some means, and it would be best if she can use it for her own use.

But she also learned that Liu Yun is an aunt trusted by the emperor, who used to be in charge of his house.

Such a person is not easy to win over, and it is not an easy task to win over.

Fortunately, Fu Zhiyuan came with her today, which made Liu Yun so obedient and saved a lot of trouble.

"How many people are there in this draft?" Zhang Anchu asked calmly.

"In this draft, there are a total of 59 people. On the first day, 500 people have been selected. Those who have just been sent out of the palace are expected to have a hundred people." Liu Yun replied truthfully. There is only a rough idea.

Zhang Anchu frowned lightly, thinking that he would have removed 500 people on the first day, but it made sense after thinking about it.

Chuxiu Palace is not big, and it can support 500 people, which is already the limit. On the first day, many people must be eliminated.

Zhang Anchu signaled Yurou next to her to take out the new draft process that she had written and hand it to Aunt Liuyun.

Aunt Liuyun was curious about what it was, she could also read, otherwise she wouldn't be valued.

But she just glanced at it, and heard Zhang Anchu say: "Aunt Liuyun, this is the new draft process, please read it to everyone."

Zhang Anchu took a sip of tea, she didn't want to do such a hard work by herself, just leave it to her, so that Liu Yun could get acquainted with it.

Aunt Liuyun had no choice but to start reading: "The new rules for the draft. After the girls who participate in the draft get off the bus at the Shenwumen, they will be led into the Chuxiu Palace by the eunuchs. Five people form a group, each holding a name tag, and the person who presides over the draft will select and read. Go forward and report your age, native place, and family background in turn, and if you are selected, you will leave a sign, and those who are not selected will be sent out of the palace."

"The person in charge of the draft will be announced by the emperor on the same day, or the emperor himself."

"In the end, only one tenth will be left, and will stay in Chuxiu Palace to investigate various aspects, for a period of one month, and the emperor will choose the throne for those who stay in the end."

Aunt Liuyun was shocked. The three-month draft has suddenly been reduced to one month. That's all. Now, I will directly select one tenth of the draft, and then I will examine all aspects.

This……

Fu Zhiyuan already knew that Zhang Anchu made such an arrangement, so he was not surprised.

Zhang Anchu has already said in the draft process that the person in charge of the draft must select the girls, and she is the person in charge of the draft this time. This is to concentrate the power in her hands.

And, from now on, it is no longer possible to entrust the matter of the draft to some aunt.

As for who Fu Zhiyuan will hand over the drafting in the future, it depends on his thoughts. The announcement was made on the same day, and the person in charge of the drafting will also be prevented from being bribed. After all, no one knows who is in charge of the drafting this time.

Zhang Anchu smiled slightly and said, "Do you understand everything?"

"Understood." The show girls below replied in unison. Although the change of the draft process made them flustered, they still answered honestly.

"Then let's get started. I didn't prepare any name tags today, but I prepared a lot of wooden tags. In a group of five, go forward and report your age, hometown, and family background in turn. If you stay, Xiu Nu will write your name on it yourself." Zhang Anchu With a flat tone, he smiled slightly and said to Fu Zhiyuan: "Your Majesty, you are here today, so why not choose with your concubines."

Fu Zhiyuan nodded his head lightly, agreeing.

The show girls below were not ready yet, so Aunt Liuyun had no choice but to go down to preside over the overall situation. Zhang Anchu was really caught off guard today, but fortunately, these show girls were all standing neatly, and a group of five would do.

Soon, the first group had already stepped forward.

"Minister, native of Youzhou..."

After the five people had finished reporting, Zhang Anchu glanced at Fu Zhiyuan and asked, "Is the emperor interested?"

Fu Zhiyuan shook his head, they were all vulgar fans, Zhang Anchu's face was not made up, but still beautiful, compared with her, these were really not up to standard.

Next, ten groups stepped forward in a row, but none remained.

Zhang Anchu didn't expect Fu Zhiyuan to be so picky. It seemed that she was the only one who chose herself.

This time, there were less than 500 people left, and only 50 people were left. That is to say, almost one person was enough for two groups.

Fu Zhiyuan looked at the beautiful girls below, all of them were not pleasing to the eye, and if he didn't like it, he had already found it very boring.

Fortunately, Zhang Anchu chose some long-looking and pretty-looking ones next, and there were also some with better family backgrounds, which stabilized the situation.

After a whole morning of busy work, batch after batch of beautiful women were sent out of the palace, which was extremely cruel.

The remaining 50 people will have a month-long stay in the palace for inspection, and a few more people will be selected.

"You should stay in Chuxiu Palace first and rest well. I will come here every day, so you should be prepared." Zhang Anchu said.

"Yes." The lucky girl who stayed behind said in unison.

Zhang Anchu looked at the sky, it was already noon, it was time for lunch, he didn't eat much in the morning, he was already hungry.

"Your Majesty, this place is over, who are you?" Zhang Anchu asked tentatively, hoping in his heart that Fu Zhiyuan would not return to Wangyou Palace.

Fu Zhiyuan already felt bored, but since he promised to come, he stayed here.

Now that the draft is over, and there is nothing to do in the afternoon, I don't know what to do for a while, so I asked: "Today I'm taking a rest, I have nothing to do, what advice does the imperial concubine have?"

Zhang Anchu didn't expect Fu Zhiyuan to answer like this, if she wanted to, as long as she wasn't with her.

"Your majesty, why not ask the dancers and musicians in the palace to relieve your boredom." Zhang Anchu nodded and said.

Fu Zhiyuan recalled that Zhang Anchu Yiwu was really amazing when he was in the Marquis's Mansion in Beiping, and her piano skills were unexpectedly good. Compared with her, the dancers and musicians in the palace were also slightly inferior.

Then why hire a dancer and musician?

Fu Zhiyuan thought of Zhang Anchu's plan, anyway, Zhang Anchu also wanted to practice dancing and piano, and said: "Why bother them, your dance skills are superb, and your piano skills are also excellent, why don't you trouble the imperial concubine."

Regret appeared on Zhang Anchu's face, why did he make this suggestion?Isn't this making yourself unhappy?

"Your Majesty, the concubines will stay in Chuxiu Palace to arrange matters, so they cannot accompany the Emperor." Zhang Anchu had no choice but to say this.

In fact, there was nothing to arrange in the future, but in order to get away from Fu Zhiyuan, he had to make this excuse.

"Okay, I'll go back first." Seeing what she said, Fu Zhiyuan had no choice but to leave first.

It's just that there are still some inexplicable emotions in his heart, Zhang Anchu would rather stay in Chuxiu Palace than please himself.

Zhang Anchu let him go and heaved a sigh of relief.

Speaking of which, this time, I still want to thank Fu Zhiyuan for being here here, otherwise, she might not be so relaxed.

At this moment, Aunt Liuyun understood that the imperial concubine was really favored, and the emperor entrusted the draft to the imperial concubine, she had better be honest and not cause any trouble.

After all, the master is the master, and she cannot be shaken by a slave.

Zhang Anchu turned around, Aunt Liuyun was still bowing her head, extremely respectful.

"Aunt Liuyun, lead me around Chuxiu Palace." Zhang Anchu said.

She hadn't been to Chuxiu Palace yet, it must be big enough to accommodate hundreds of people, as for the next arrangement, we'll see it later.

"Yes." Aunt Liuyun replied.

After speaking, he led her to the place where the beautiful women of Chuxiu Palace lived, there were dozens of houses large and small.

Liuyun opened the door, inside was Datong Shop, from east to west, it could accommodate 40 to [-] people, but it was a bit crowded, the environment was not good, but the bedding was still new.

These are naturally purchased by the palace, which is not a small expense.

From now on, you can save money.

"From now on, these quilts will not be used in the palace anymore, and the extras should be distributed to the maids and eunuchs, so don't waste them," Zhang Anchu said.

At this moment, Zhang Anchu heard voices outside.

"The imperial concubine is really beautiful. Among the beautiful girls we have left behind, there should be no one who can match her."

"Yeah, it's really enviable. The emperor should love her very much."

"Even if we enter the palace, we probably won't be favored by the imperial concubine."

The sound came from far to near, and soon entered the room.

The two beautiful girls were very surprised that the imperial concubine was actually in this hall, so they hurriedly saluted Zhang Anchu: "See the imperial concubine."

Zhang Anchu nodded slightly, and said, "Get up, do you live here?"

"Returning to the imperial concubine, the two of us happened to live in this room, and it was fate that we stayed here at the same time." One of the beautiful girls replied.

"What's your name?" Zhang Anchu saw that this beautiful girl behaved properly, and she was the one who led the salute just now.

"The name of the civilian girl is He Lianhui, the daughter of He Caizhe, Minister of the Ministry of Officials." He Lianhui kept her head down, not daring to raise her head to answer. After all, she is still a beautiful girl, without any rank.

Zhang Anchu nodded lightly, remembering that in the morning, she was left behind. He Lianhui looks mediocre, but his father is the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, so he should be kept.

"Learn the rules well." Zhang Anchu nodded lightly. She thought that in the harem, she should not be the only one, but also need to have a helper, and this month, she must carefully choose an ally for herself. .

This He Lianhui, who has a high family background and learned the rules well, might become her helper.

However, thinking of the background of the original imperial concubine, even though she was considered a righteous daughter by the Marquis of Guangde, she had no background after all, so I was afraid that He Lianhui would look down on her.

She would not choose someone who looks down on her background as an ally, and she needs to do more research recently.

"Aunt Liuyun, the Chuxiu Palace will be arranged by you. Yurou, you also stay here and learn from Aunt Liuyun. I will come back tomorrow." Zhang Anchu turned her head and said to Liuyun. It's just an excuse, I'll leave it to Liu Yun, with Yurou at my side, so it shouldn't be a problem.

She was worried about Liuyun, so it would be good for Yurou to follow her. By the way, she could learn a little more, and also let Yurou taste the sweetness of power, so she would follow her wholeheartedly from now on.

Today's draft has undergone such a big change that people have been caught off guard. There are still many things to be rescheduled in Chuxiu Palace.

Liu Yun's heart tightened, the imperial concubine arranged for Yurou to stay, he must be worried about him, and replied: "Yes."

Even if Liu Yun knew that the imperial concubine was worried about him, there was nothing he could do, after all, the imperial concubine was very favored and could not be offended easily.

Zhang Anchu finally came out of Chuxiu Palace, and his stomach could already feel his chest sticking to his back.

When we returned to Wangyou Palace, the meal had already been served on the table, and it was even a bit cold.

"It's been so long, and the imperial concubine hasn't come back, why don't you keep the food warm." The nanny looked outside the palace gate, feeling anxious inside.

Zhang Anchu always had a plan for everything, so he shouldn't have missed the time for lunch.

Siyu nodded, and was about to leave with the plate when she heard the nanny say, "The imperial concubine is back."

Zhang Anchu walked into the hall quickly, not wanting to delay at all, seeing the food on the table that had not been removed, he sat down and ate.

"Imperial Concubine, this dish is cold, let Siyu reheat it." The nanny said worried that she would spoil her stomach.

"No need, I'm so hungry, I can just make do with it." Zhang Anchu didn't care, she was really hungry, if it wasn't for Fu Zhiyuan, she would have come back to eat already.

There is a long distance between Chuxiu Palace and Wangyou Palace, and it takes a long distance to walk. It consumes energy and makes me hungry, so I don't care whether the food is cold or not.

The nanny was helpless, remembering that when Zhang Anchu left today, the emperor, Yurou, and Xiaosengzi all followed, but now only Xiaosengzi and Zhang Anchu came back.

"Where are the emperor and Yurou?" The nanny asked suspiciously.

"The Emperor Bengong doesn't know, he can go wherever he wants, Yurou stayed in Chuxiu Palace, let her deal with some things." Zhang Anchu said, thinking of Fu Zhiyuan got angry, and even wanted her to dance and play the piano.

There are still many things to do next, how can I have time to spend time with him.

The nanny nodded, remembering that when she made the bed early this morning, she found that she hadn't fallen red. She was someone who had experienced it and knew a lot. The emperor definitely didn't favor Zhang Anchu.

Now she is a little worried, she thought, the child she grew up with is beautiful and versatile, and the emperor didn't favor him?
Last night, she was a little worried about Zhang Anchu, but now that she is not favored by the emperor, she feels uncomfortable.

Why?Why isn't the child of my own grandma not favored by the emperor?

"Imperial Concubine, Your Majesty was with you yesterday..."

Zhang Anchu was enjoying his meal, and when she heard her question, he put down his chopsticks and said, "There is nothing wrong with the two of us. The palace slept on the floor yesterday, and the emperor slept on the bed. Don't worry, nanny, the innocence is still there."

After Zhang Anchu finished speaking, he smiled playfully, as if very proud of himself.

The nanny was depressed, and said worriedly: "Why did the emperor let you sleep on the floor? Why didn't anything happen to you two?"
