Just as Mrs. Wang was preparing to think of a way to allow Tanchun to enter the palace smoothly, another wife in Rongguo Mansion was also making her own little plans.

This person is Mrs. Xing, whom Jia She later married.

However, at this moment, Mrs. Xing was not in Rongguo Mansion, but at the home of her brother Xing Zhong.

Of course, the home here is not Xing Zhong's hometown, but a new house bought after he came to the capital to join Mrs. Xing.

Although the place is not big, at least it can be regarded as a place to stay in the capital.

Mrs. Xing sits at the top, while her brother Xing Zhong sits at the bottom.

There was a cup of tea in front of both of them, but Mrs. Xing only glanced at the tea leaves inside and pushed the teacup aside.

Obviously, this kind of tea is not even a mouthwash in front of her.

The most eye-catching thing in the whole room was not the brother and sister, but a good-looking girl standing next to Xing Zhong.

This girl was tall, light in stature, and dignified in her manners.

Her skin is like jade, her black hair is like lacquer, and her beautiful eyes are like a peony flower in bud.

Looking at the girl in front of her, Mrs.

When Xing Zhong heard this, he just grinned.

Xing Xiuyan himself only blushed slightly after hearing what his aunt Mrs. Xing said and didn't say much.

Seeing this, Mrs. Xing continued: "You must have heard about the upcoming draft in the palace, right?"

This time, after Xing Zhong heard the words, he immediately nodded and said, "I heard people say this on the street. I heard that many dignitaries want to send their daughters to the palace to draft girls."

When Mrs. Xing heard that her brother knew about this, she stopped beating around the bush.

"I am here today for no other reason than to see if Xiuyan girl has this idea. If so, I can help think of a solution."

When Xing Zhong heard this, he immediately became energetic: "Is Xiuyan really capable?"

After hearing what her aunt Mrs. Xing said, Xing Xiuyan's expression suddenly changed.

If her aunt hadn't mentioned it, she would never have thought about going to the talent show.

Seeing this, Mrs. You will enjoy a lifetime of blessings from now on.”

Xing Xiuyan's face turned even redder after being praised in this way.

She secretly wondered in her heart, could a girl like herself who hadn't read many books really be able to enter the palace and choose some beautiful girl?

Doesn’t it mean that a beautiful girl must be proficient in all kinds of music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and she must also be extremely good in poetry, calligraphy and etiquette?
Thinking of this, Xing Xiuyan no longer had any confidence in the draft.

However, after hearing what her sister Mrs. Xing said, her father Xing Zhong immediately laughed out loud with excitement.

"Listening to what you said, it seems that our Xiuyan can really choose and give it a try. If he is chosen, then Xiuyan and I really don't have to worry about it in the future."

When Mrs. Xing saw that her brother Xing Zhong had agreed, she immediately looked at Xing Xiuyan and said, "Xiuyan, you see your father has agreed. What do you want to say?"

Hearing this, Xing Xiuyan bit her red and tender lips secretly and said, "I... I'm afraid I can't do it, right? I don't understand so many rules, and I don't read many books. I heard that there are a lot of rules in the palace, I'm afraid I don’t know those.”

When Mrs. Go take the exam, it will be good if you can read and write. If you are a girl, why are you reading so many books? My aunt thinks you can do it."

After hearing what his aunt Mrs. Xing said, Xing Xiuyan suddenly felt confident.After all, if we only talk about appearance and figure, Xing Xiuyan is not inferior to other girls.

Even, in some respects, it is even more outstanding.

Since you let yourself choose, you can just choose one and give it a try.

Even if you can't be selected, it can be regarded as an experience in a person's life.

Thinking of this, Xing Xiuyan lowered his head with gleaming eyes and remained silent. He was not as confident about the draft as he was just now.

When Mrs. Xing saw that her niece was silent, she knew that she had moved her heart.

The next moment, she looked at her brother Xing Zhong with a smile and said: "Since Xiuyan agrees, then I will go to work on this matter. As for whether it will succeed or not, it depends on the fate of this girl Xiuyan."

Seeing this, Xing Zhong also smiled and said: "There are already two young ladies in the palace who have entered the palace and been concubines. With a few words of care, I think this matter is not a big deal. Don't worry, as long as Xiuyan can be selected into the palace, in the future, I must honor you as my aunt."

When Mrs. Xing heard this, the smile on her face became even wider.

"As you said, I don't want my wealth to go to outsiders. Although Yingchun has entered the palace, she is not my biological girl after all. Xiuyan is different. She is a girl of our Xing family. I have regarded her as my daughter since she was a child. As a dear girl, she is promising, and I, as an aunt, have a good reputation. As for being filial and not being filial, as long as she has that heart in the future and thinks about me as her aunt, it will be fine. I don’t care about anything else. ”

When Xing Zhong heard this, he just smiled happily but said nothing more.

Seeing that the purpose of the trip had been achieved, Mrs. Nowadays, there are too many families who want to send girls to the palace, and there are many high-ranking officials and rich families in Beijing, so it is still a bit difficult."

When Xing Zhong heard this, he immediately expressed his position: "This matter depends entirely on you. As long as you help our Xiuyan complete this matter, you will be Xiuyan's great benefactor. Although this girl is stupid, she can't help her." I still know it in my heart.”

After hearing this, Mrs. Xing said no more, just shook the brocade handkerchief in her hand at her brother Xing Zhong, then twisted her plump buttocks and left.

After returning to Rongguo Mansion, Mrs. Xing went directly to Jia Mu's residence.

Because she knew that the key to whether this matter would succeed or not still lies with the old lady.

The reason why she wanted to find her niece Xing Xiuyan was that Mrs. Xing had already made up her mind that the mansion would send someone to the palace again.

As for the candidates, sisters Tanchun and Xichun are both possible candidates.

Whether there was anything else, she wasn't sure.

And taking this opportunity to hitch a ride would be the best thing to do.

With this idea in mind, Mrs. Xing went to Jia Mu's residence and told her about her niece Xing Xiuyan.

When Jia Mu heard this, she couldn't help but frown slightly.

However, for the sake of her eldest daughter-in-law, she still agreed to give it a try.

In this way, just as Mrs. Wang returned to her room, she was called back by Jia Mu.

When she heard that she was going to help Mrs. Xing's niece to enter the palace, Mrs. Wang really wanted to spit in her sister-in-law's face.

However, now that the old lady had spoken, it was hard for her to say so, so she could only respond first.

After all, sometimes one person can do it, and two people can do it. It's just a matter of saying a few more words.
