Live up to the country

Qi Yu nodded: "Okay, I will personally select at that time and pass on my will. All beautiful women are not allowed to put on make-up, nor use any aromatherapy, and all costumes will be uniformly distributed by the palace!"

"Observe the order!" The minister replied.

Three days later, all the beautiful girls gathered at the Taihe Gate in the palace. Everyone changed into the light green palace attire issued by the palace, and all the headgears were the jasper butterfly swings provided by the palace. drop.

Luo Lianyi was on the road before, and saw rich and powerful girls dressed luxuriously and beautifully. Girls from poor mountain villages like her felt a lot worse standing with them. Now that everyone dressed in uniform, they felt fair and just. She couldn't help but I kind of admire the emperor who hasn't met yet.

The beautiful women were introduced by the eunuchs to the Ruyi Hall of the Bishui Palace in batches, and then led to the inner hall one by one by the eunuchs to meet the emperor and queen, and the rest waited in the Nuan Pavilion.

Luo Lianyi watched them go in one batch after another, some were smiling and some were downcast, guessing that those who were distressed were poor girls who wanted to enter the palace and wanted to use this to change their fate, while those who were happy were mostly officials. My young lady doesn't want to go to the palace to live a life of intrigue.She was very curious about what criteria the emperor used to select them, and why the girls who looked good to her went in one by one, and they were all pushed out one by one.

The cold wind was blowing, and the girls didn't wear much. Luo Lianyi looked at everyone, her face was blue from the cold, and she probably looked about the same, and she would probably be thrown out later.

She thought that she must have been blue and blue from the cold at this moment, and she had no hope of being selected. She wondered if she was not selected, where would she go next after the sign came out?Although she felt pity for former Lianyi's mother in her heart, she was really reluctant to go back to that small village.

"Liu Ruyuan!"

"Ye Thrush!"

"Luo Lianyi!"

Luo Lianyi was just thinking about it, when she suddenly heard a duck-like voice calling her, raising her hand and yelling "here", she forgot that it was an audition, and thought that she was standing on the school playground, and the teacher called her by name.

All the eyes of the audience turned to her immediately, and a girl next to her covered her mouth and let out a "chuck" laugh, muttering softly: "A country girl is a country girl."

Luo Lianyi glanced at her, and didn't care about her, and followed the girls and eunuchs who had just been called into the Palace of Clear Water.

The warm pavilion of the Bishui Palace was filled with wrist-thick candles, smoked with agarwood crumbs, warm and bright, with a lingering fragrance, like a spring breeze. After sitting for a while, Luo Lianyi felt much more comfortable.She looked up and looked around, this palace is really beautiful, just like those palaces seen on TV, the walls and pillars of the palace are decorated with coiled dragons and auspicious clouds, which are in various shapes and lifelike, all kinds of celadon vessels are arranged in random order, calm and elegant, and the ground is large. The bluestone bricks are as smooth as a mirror in the middle, and the wishful cloud pattern is ground around them, which is very delicate and beautiful.

After Liu Ruyuan, Ye Huamei and other beautiful girls went in, they all came out with sullen faces. The eunuch called "Luo Lianyi" by name, she quickly stood up, and followed the eunuch into the inner room.

The interior is even more beautiful!Resplendent and resplendent, light gauze curtains, like entering a dream!Luo Lianyi slowly followed behind the eunuch, admiring secretly in her heart.

She raised her head and looked straight ahead, and finally saw the emperor and empress sitting on the dragon chair hovering around the red gold nine dragons!I saw that the emperor was wearing a yellow robe of a coiling dragon, a crown with nine crowns reaching the sky, and jade beads of several colors falling on the twelve crowns, shaking gently, but it couldn't hide the calm and majestic dragon face, Luo Lianyi I couldn't see his eyes clearly, but only saw his hook-like nose, so I felt afraid of him for no reason.She knelt down and peeked at the queen again, but she saw that the queen was wearing a golden phoenix apron, with bright eyes and bright teeth, a solemn face, and an imposing manner.

"Luo Lianyi, why don't you pay homage to the emperor, or to your empress?" the eunuch reminded her beside her.

"Ah? Minnv - Minnv pays respects to the emperor, empress, long live the emperor, and good luck to the empress." Luo Lianyi remembered that it was always played like this on TV, but she looked decent.

"Haha, okay, excuse me, get up, come closer, let me take a good look." The emperor seemed very satisfied with her visit, and his voice was very kind.

After Luo Lianyi came over, she only saw this appearance in the broken bronze mirror of Qian Lianyi's house, and vaguely felt that it was indeed much more beautiful than her previous appearance, but she couldn't figure out how beautiful it was.

She stood up and walked a little ahead anxiously, not knowing that she was already rosy white and as bright as a peach blossom by the heat from the warm pavilion.

Qi Yu waited for her to approach, stood up unconsciously, walked in front of her, raised her face with his hand, looked at her face carefully, and pressed the fingertips of his other hand on her cinnabar mole.

Luo Lianyi always hated this action, she suddenly remembered that Prince Xiling raised her chin like that that day, that condescending attitude made her very uncomfortable, she couldn't help frowning slightly.

Empress Gao Yan, who had been sitting quietly all this time, saw her subtle expression, her face sank immediately, she stood up, and looked at the emperor nervously.

"How dare you frown at me?" Qi Yu's hands had turned into pincers, pinching her neck.

Standing under his eyelids, Luo Lianyi saw clearly his fierce eyes like a falcon, and couldn't help feeling a chill rise from the bottom of her heart. She was suddenly afraid that his hand would break her neck with a snap. up.

"Ami, what? Ami, what?" She anxiously recalled the spell that the voice that sent her through taught her to escape in times of crisis, but she couldn't remember it at all, and fine beads of sweat could not help oozing from her forehead.

"This is the first time I've seen a woman who dares to frown at me." Qi Yu's fingers strengthened.

At this moment, all the morals are floating clouds!Luo Lianyi's mind was turning like a wheel, and suddenly her body softened, her eyes glistened instantly, her eyes were extremely wronged, she looked at the emperor, and said in a trembling and delicate voice: "Your Majesty, the little girl is just frightened by the aura of the emperor's dominion over the world. .”

Qi Yu looked deeply into her eyes, Luo Lianyi blinked hurriedly, pretending to be more innocent and pitiful, Qi Yu slowly loosened his fingers, and finally let go, laughing loudly.

Luo Lianyi didn't know what he was laughing at, but when she saw the queen's face became more gloomy.

"Keep this one, send it to the Hall of Picking Stars, and hand it over to the body examiner." After Qi Yu laughed, she turned and told the next eunuch.

"Observe the order." The eunuch responded, came over and bowed and said to Luo Lianyi: "Congratulations, my lord, please go ahead." Luo Lianyi escaped the danger, not knowing what fate awaited her next, she was at a loss Follow the eunuch down, pass by the envious and jealous eyes of all the beautiful girls waiting in the Bishui Palace, and go to the strange Star Picking Palace.

In the inner room of Bishui Palace, Empress Gao Yan walked up to Emperor Qi Yu and asked, "What do you want, Your Majesty?"
