There were only five people left on the field, Xu Beisheng, Xu Nanyin, Jiang Yaru, Li Roufei, Wang Sujin, and Wu Jinzhi, who did not want to be women for the prince.

Liu Cheng sang again: "His Royal Highness, please choose Liangdi, Liangyuan, Cairen and Baolin among the other noble ladies. According to the ancestral rules, Liangdi can choose two people, Liangyuan and others will not be counted."

Bei Sheng's heart tightened, and his heart beat wildly, feeling like he was going crazy.

Nanyin was closest to her, glanced at her, and said in a low voice: "Don't worry, you won't become Liangdi."

Bei Sheng couldn't help but turn his face to look at her.

Nanyin was speechless.

On the stage, Xiao Xun was already writing furiously. After a while, he handed the written list to Liu Cheng again.

As Liu Cheng chanted, the results came out.

Xu Nanyin and Wu Jinzhi are Liang Di, Jiang Yaru, Li Roufei and Wang Sujin are Liang Yuan, and Xu Beisheng is Cai Ren.

Xiao Xun's eyes always fell on Bei Sheng, who couldn't control his expression well.

Even with the gauze covering her face, Xiao Xun could still see that after Liu Cheng finished reading Liang Di's list, she breathed a heavy sigh of relief.

It's not that Xiao Xun only noticed her just now, it's just that Bei Sheng was so focused on what was on his mind that he didn't notice Xiao Xun's burning eyes.

After hearing that he was a talented person, Beisheng raised his eyes and met Xiao Xun.

This time, the choice is hers.

Xiao Xun hopes she can stay.

But when the noble lady Liu Chengxuan Nian chose to give up stepped forward to cross out her name on the list, Beisheng stepped forward resolutely without any hesitation.

Xiao Xun kept looking down. The moment Bei Sheng stained his name with ink on his pen, Xiao Xun closed his eyes in disappointment.

Putting down his pen, Bei Sheng saluted Xiao Xun, took out a jade pendant from his sleeve and placed it on the table, then slowly retreated.

Jiang Yaru and Li Roufei were still hesitant, fearing that it would affect their family's future, but seeing Beisheng's determination, they also stepped forward and crossed out their names.

Being a prince's woman is not a happy thing. Several women fighting in the ring are like wild beasts in the forest, the weak and the strong.

It would be better to choose a good husband outside the palace and get married safely.

The important matter of choosing a concubine has been decided, and the marriage affairs in the palace have been held for half a month.

First, he chose an auspicious day to marry the Crown Princess Zhong Yunzhen, and then married two good ladies, Xu Nanyin and Wu Jinzhi. Wang Sujin was the last one to marry into the East Palace.

Xiao Xun married four women in one month. Everyone thought he was very lucky, but he just laughed it off.

Zhong Yunxun grasped the real power and did not care whether he was favored or not. He devoted all his energy to palace affairs.

Wu Jinzhi was very indifferent. Apart from staring at the flower beds and painting the palace every day, there seemed to be nothing particularly important.

Xiao Xun was quite fond of Wang Sujin. Among the three concubines, she was the first to get the title.

Nan Yin was left out for two months without sleeping with her. Xiao Xun acted as if she was no longer in the palace and never passed her door.

On the first day of their wedding, they went to pay their respects to the Holy Queen. Xiao Xun only brought Wu Jinzhi with him, while Nanyin went with him.

But she didn't complain much. Even the maid couldn't stand it and asked her to walk around in front of the prince more, but she said:
"In the past, I was very close to Prince Leping and could be regarded as the prince's enemy. Now that I was called into the palace, how could I know that God was not punishing me? I came to the palace to replace Beisheng, so it was a great kindness for His Highness not to hurt my life. Time has passed. It’s still a long time coming, so why rush it?”

She is only nineteen.

She couldn't compare to Bei Sheng in terms of scheming and scheming. Under Bei Sheng's continuous suppression, she finally realized a truth.

Forcing some things will only hurt others and yourself, so it is better to lie dormant and wait for the opportunity.

There is no right to live like an ant in the capital. Without King Leping, there are people who are more powerful than King Leping.

The prince stared at Bei Sheng, but Bei Sheng's appearance was ruined, and she felt that her chance had come.

Late at night, she put on a cloak and went to Lang's house, asking Lang Zhuo to introduce her to the prince.

Once the two of them conspired to get what they wanted, she became Xu Liangdi.

The prince was indifferent to her and didn't even want to look at her, so what?

It doesn't matter if she can't become the Crown Princess at the moment, she will become Empress Xu in the future.

After a month, there will be a slight cold, and the winter will be warm and sunny.

Beisheng and Lang Zhuo get married. The identity of Lang Zhuo as Tuoba Hu's son has spread in the capital, but it has not had the slightest impact.

He is still the hero of Dajing's suppression of the rebellion. He has great honors and is admired by everyone.

Giving gifts and congratulations broke the threshold of Lang's house.

After the wedding, the two of them lay flat on the wedding bed. Lang Zhuo rested his arms on his hands and stared at the gauze curtain.

His face turned red due to drinking, and he suddenly said leisurely: "My mansion is too small after all. The Holy Father rewarded me with a piece of land, but the location is a little far away. When spring comes next year, I will build a mansion there. I will stay there when nothing happens." That’s leisure time.”

Bei Sheng still felt like she was in a dream. The centipede scar on her face was clinging to her face silently. She turned sideways and looked at Lang Zhuo, "Do you have some free time, sir?"

Lang Zhuo thought for a moment, then smiled bitterly: "Not really."

Even the wedding was prepared for them by the Duke's family. Lang Zhuo just took one day to attend.

There will be a lot of things to do after tomorrow.

He turned around and stared at her.

Suddenly he reached out and touched her face gently.

Bei Sheng didn't drink much, but his face was red. Lang Zhuo couldn't hold it back, raised his head and kissed Bei Sheng's long scar.

He said: "King Leping has caused endless harm. There is only one thing I want to thank him for."

Bei Sheng's eyes widened in surprise.

Lang Zhuo smiled and said, "I can't help you if I tell you."

Beisheng's beautiful long eyebrows suddenly frowned, and she knew what he wanted to thank King Leping for.

Angrily, he turned his back and said, "Yes, you should thank him for not killing me and only hurting my face. Then I wouldn't be able to enter the palace and it would be up to you!"

Lang Zhuo climbed up, held Bei Sheng's shoulders, and whispered in her ear: "I am a treacherous and evil person. Do you regret it?"

Bei Sheng turned her head to look at him and asked, "Is it useful if I regret it?"

Lang Zhuo took advantage of the situation and kissed him, "It's useless."

Before selecting the crown princess, Lang Zhuo visited Xiao Xun and told him bluntly that he and Bei Sheng were in love.

Xiao Xun didn't believe it. That day he gave Bei Sheng a position as a talented person. If Bei Sheng chose to stay, he promised her nobility; if she chose to leave, he promised her respect.

Therefore, when Beisheng crossed out his name, Xiao Xun said nothing.

This time Beisheng and Lang Zhuo got married, and Xiao Xun gave them a big gift.

Before the Chinese New Year, there was another heavy snowfall in Beijing.

The stove in Yu Linglong Pavilion was really hot. Bei Sheng and shopkeeper Liu were checking their accounts. They had made a lot of money this year.

Excluding the hundreds of thousands taels stolen from King Leping, the net profit of Yu Linglong Pavilion was nearly 200,000 taels.

Yan Mo leaned on one side and drank tea, squinting his eyes slightly and asked: "It's the new year, if there is anything else Boss Xu needs my help with, just ask."

Beisheng closed the ledger: "Food."

Yan Mo almost spit out a mouthful of old tea, "How much money can you make from food! People have been crazy poor in the past two years. Food cannot be sold at a high price, so we can only lose money."

Beisheng glared at him, "You earn so much money, how can you support yourself in old age! After the New Year, you will use it all to buy all the wasteland on the mountain to grow food. That's what I think for the time being. We have to wait for Mr. Lang to discuss the details with him when he is free. , let him mention it to the court, only if we can get the approval from the court can things be done easily."

Yan Mo was speechless and silently put the tea bowl on the table. He stood up and said, "Then you and your wife will discuss the total first. I will also go back and check my accounts to see if I have enough money to buy the land."

Bei Sheng looked at his back and smiled coldly.

Prince Leping was eaten up and wiped clean by the two of them. When the court ransacked his house, they found only a few hundred taels of silver in Prince Leping's house, not even some valuable antiques, calligraphy and paintings.

If you can't come up with something to give back to the people of the imperial court now, Beisheng will feel that this money is too hot to handle.

She suddenly remembered something and wanted to say a few words to Yan Mo.

He stood up and lay down at the window, looking down. He just raised his eyes and saw two people walking in the snow.

Xiao Xu held an umbrella, Pei Ning held his arm, and walked past the door of Yu Linglong Pavilion with a warm smile.
