Coming out of the palace gate was the young eunuch beside the eldest princess, named He Miao, who was sixteen this year.

He is from the same clan as He Qi, the eunuch beside the emperor. When talking about He Miao, he would call He Qi his cousin.

When he saw the beautiful woman waiting at the palace gate, he knew that the second girl from Duke An Guo's residence had arrived.

They bowed to each other and walked in together.

He Miao entered the palace at the age of six and stayed with the eldest princess.

This is the critical period for a normal man to change his voice. He Miao's voice cannot be said to be feminine, but it is still as clear as a child's.

He said: "Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess knows that Miss Xu Er is entering the palace today, so she wants me to briefly explain to Miss Xu Er so that the girl will not feel cramped when she arrives in the palace."

Bei Sheng responded humbly and followed silently, listening to He Miao's instructions.

He Miao continued: "The Empress is too busy with affairs, so she leaves the selection of the Crown Princess in charge of Her Royal Highness. After many layers of selection, a total of ten noble ladies, including girls, are being trained in Saga Palace. ."

"The remaining nine are Hua Jia, the niece of the Empress, Wu Jinzhi, the granddaughter of Wu Yao, the Minister of Zhan, Zhong Yunzhen, the daughter of Zhong Quan, the Minister of War, Liu Zelan, the daughter of Liu Cheng, the Minister of Rites, Mi Yu, the daughter of Mi Tong, the left minister of the Ministry of Rites, Pei Ning, the daughter of Pei Qin, the Minister of Punishment, Jiang Yaru, the daughter of Jiangshan, the Minister of Industry, Li Roufei, the daughter of Li Luoqiong, the right minister of the Ministry of Official Affairs, and Wang Sujin, the granddaughter of Wang Hao, the Minister of Household Affairs."

Bei Sheng's head felt numb when he heard that. In his previous life, there were only five or six people, but in this life, Lang Zhuo actually recruited ten people?

She was so confused that she didn't understand who was whose daughter or who's granddaughter. She only heard a long list of official titles.

Not only did they select one or two from each of the six volumes of Zhongshu, but they also chose Zhan Shifu.

She had never heard of some of these people, let alone met them.

He Miao did not notice Bei Sheng's strange behavior and continued: "There are also Princess Fan Yang and Princess Laiyang who are also listening in the Caga Palace. Although they do not need to participate in the selection, they want to learn female red knitting, so the eldest princess also Leave them behind.”

Beisheng couldn't help but stop and asked in shock: "Princess Fan Yang and Princess Laiyang?"

He Miao turned around, thinking that Xu Beisheng had never heard of the names of these two people, and explained: "Princess Fan Yang's name is Xiao Yu, and she and Wang Leping's mother are both born to Concubine Zhao, and Princess Laiyang is Yan The prince’s daughter, her maiden name is Xiao Xiao.”

Bei Sheng continued to walk forward, pretending to be unintentional and asked: "I heard that Princess Fan Yang is already married, why do you still need to go to the palace to listen to the instructions?"

He Miao smiled faintly, "Hey, who knows! We are slaves. We don't inquire about our master's family affairs. We do whatever the superiors tell us to do."

He added: "In the past two months, Mr. Lang taught poetry and calligraphy to the noble ladies, and the nuns in the palace taught the noble ladies the etiquette in the palace. However, because Miss Xu entered the palace late, these were all lost. Missed it, Her Royal Highness the Princess told her that the girl is a person who has read poetry and books, so she can just learn the female beauty directly after entering the palace. As for the palace etiquette, there is no need to take time to practice it, so there is no need to learn additional lessons."

Beisheng can handle palace etiquette and poetry, but the most troublesome thing for her is female celebrities. The embroidery needle is more difficult to operate in her hands than the Babel Pestle.

After turning around several palace walls and passing through several palace gates, we finally arrived at Saga Palace.

He Miao led Bei Sheng in, pointed to the high platform to the west and said: "All the noble ladies who participated in the election live in Jiaojie Building. The Jingchi Zhai in the northwest corner was originally the place where Master Lang taught the noble ladies. Hong is still there, and at this time, everyone has not finished class yet."

Beisheng is familiar with these, but the only difference from his previous life is that Lang Zhuo did not teach the ladies in his previous life.

Her eyes slowly moved to Jiaojie Tower, and her heart ached.

In the previous life, Guo Zhi, the commander of the front office of the palace, led his troops into the Saga Palace and dragged her down from the Jiaojie Tower. Xiao Xu, who blocked her, seemed to be still in front of her, and the bright red blood left by Xiao Xu on the steps had not yet dried. .

He Miao was about to take her to Jiaojie Building to find a room, but when he turned around, he saw Xu Beisheng looking at Jiaojie Building blankly.

When other noble ladies entered the palace, they were all amazed at the majesty and majesty of the palace. But the girl was very calm and didn't ask anything except about Princess Fan Yang and Princess Laiyang.

Sometimes it was too quiet, and He Miao often seemed to be talking to himself.

Regardless of whether she listened or not, He Miao continued: "There are many empty rooms in Jiaojie Building, but the ones with good lighting and spaciousness have already been occupied. If the girl has a good relationship, the two of them can share a room."

"No, I haven't made any good friends. I don't know them." Bei Sheng added, fearing that He Miao might not understand.

He Miao was stunned.

It stands to reason that children from official families all interact with each other and should have good friends.

However, He Miao had also heard the legend of this second girl Xu. She only came to Beijing to be with her biological parents when she was eighteen years old. It was normal for her not to know other noble girls.

Thinking of this, He Miao smiled faintly and said, "There are only a few small rooms left. The bed may not be able to fit in, but it is still possible to put a couch and a table and chairs. The slave will lead the girl up to take a look. ?”

"it is good."

Bei Sheng only cares about whether he can live to become the crown princess at the end of the year, and it doesn't matter whether he lives well or not. If Fang Xiaosuo doesn't want to stay there, he can just make a bed on the floor.

He Miao followed him upstairs until he reached the south end, and then he opened a small door.

In the previous life, this room was used to store sundries and was always locked. Beisheng didn't know what it was like inside.

If you look inside, it looks clean and tidy. If it is as He Miao said, there are couches, tables and chairs inside, but nothing else.

He Miao said: "Girl, please go and clean up first. The eldest princess is still giving lessons to the ladies. She didn't leave until six o'clock. When everyone has dispersed, I will take the girl to see Her Highness the eldest princess."

Beisheng said: "My father-in-law is busy, I will just go by myself then."

He Miao was questioning whether Xu Beisheng knew the way to the palace, but then he thought, since she said so, it would save him trouble.

So he nodded, "In this way, I won't disturb the girl."

After He Miao finished speaking, he lowered his head and left in a hurry.

Beisheng didn't bring much luggage. Apart from a change of clothes and a few daily necessities, there were two more Chinese garlands in the package.

This is the gift she prepared for the eldest princess and the queen.

Since the eldest princess is still teaching the ladies, she will go to see the queen first.

Putting down the package, he picked out the bright yellow garland in the brocade box and held it in his arms. He closed the door and left the Saga Palace in a familiar way.

He lowered his head all the way and headed towards Kunming Palace where the Queen was.

When they arrived at Kunming Palace, Bei Sheng did not dare to break in. After waiting outside the palace gate for a long time, a young eunuch carrying a food box came out. Bei Sheng reported his name and asked the young eunuch to pass the message inside for him. .

The young eunuch was going to deliver snacks to His Majesty, so he left in a hurry. When he heard that Bei Sheng was the noble daughter who was running for the title of Crown Princess, and she was from Duke An Guo's palace, he hurried in to report.

Not long after, a message came from inside asking Bei Sheng to come in.
