Chapter 75
The eunuchs carrying the sedan chair walked very fast, they almost trotted all the way, and they kept taking shortcuts, and they arrived at the Empress Dowager's Compassion Palace in just a quarter of an hour.

After the two got off the sedan chair, led by Qing He and Qing Sui, they went straight to the bedroom of the Compassionate Ning Palace.

Although it is early spring at this time, the earth dragon in the Compassionate Ning Palace is still very warm, and Ya Ruo feels comfortable all over after entering.

The queen mother is sitting on her phoenix chair and taking a nap, probably because she got up too early, she is a bit sleepy.

Ya Ruo and her mother saw that the queen mother was asleep, so they wanted to leave, and waited for the queen mother to wake up before coming in to say hello, but they had just retreated to the door, and the queen mother suddenly opened her eyes.

"May the Empress Dowager be blessed and safe." Ya Ruo hurriedly followed her mother to kowtow to pay her respects.

"Get up, it's not the first time for the fourth sister-in-law to enter the palace, there is no need to be so polite, girl Yaruo is also here, just in time for you mother and daughter to give Aijia a reference." The queen mother said with a smile, she seemed to be in a good mood.

After Yaruo and the others heard this, they became a little curious. What does the Queen Mother need them to refer to?
At this moment, Su Mo'er came in, holding a dozen or so scrolls in her hand.

"Come and take a look. There are twelve scrolls here. Aijia specially asked Su Mo'er to go and read all the girls on the draft list. The twelve selected from them are the ones with talent and appearance. Pretty girl, fourth sister-in-law, come and have a look, and help Aijia find out which of them is more suitable to enter the palace to serve the emperor. Aijia might as well send the nuns in the palace to teach them carefully, According to our emperor's preferences, teach these girls, so that they can be favored by the emperor after entering the palace."

As soon as the Queen Mother finished speaking, Ya Ruo was a little dumbfounded, and Su Shi was also a little dumbfounded.

They thought that the Empress Dowager let them enter the palace, it was a big event, but they didn't expect that she came to help choose the concubines in the harem. Of course, this is also a very, very important event, but no matter what happens, it will not be Su's turn. Come help choose?

Actually, the Empress Dowager didn't intend to ask Su Shi to help read it at the beginning, because she was afraid that if she chose according to her own preferences, and her son didn't like it, it would be a waste of work, so she wanted to ask someone to refer to it for reference. some suggestions.

Those concubines in the palace were competitors with her at the beginning, so they didn't have a sincere sister, so it was impossible for the queen mother to let those concubines come and see.

After much deliberation, it was better to find his own relatives, and then he chose the Su family among the several sisters-in-law who came to the capital.

From the Empress Dowager's point of view, Su Shi was a person with excellent talent and appearance when he was young, but now he is still beautiful, elegant, and breathtaking. As a beauty, Su Shi naturally understands beauties better, and can help her choose a few suitable ones from these scrolls come out.

"Stop standing, sit down, sit on a chair, and accompany Aijia to take a good look at these scrolls." The Queen Mother said with a smile.

While talking, the Queen Mother got up and went to the big table, and sat on the chairs beside her. Su Shi and Ya Ruo didn't dare to delay, and immediately sat around. After they were seated one by one, Su Moer showed the first scroll to expand.

Su Mo'er looked at the crowd and said with a smile: "This is the daughter of the official minister's family, Niu Hulu, who is from the Manchurian yellow flag. She is 15 years old this year. This princess is very good at ink painting, and the emperor usually likes painting very much." , although this young lady is not tall and looks quite petite, she has fair skin and is also pretty and lovely."

When Su Mo'er was talking, Ya Ruo was also looking at it, but the portrait was not very good. People looked at the flat face, flat nose, and slender eyes, which were featureless. What did she think of it? Can't see the beauty and cuteness.

The queen mother took a closer look, then waved her hand lightly, indicating that Su Mo'er could take another look.

"This is the daughter of Langtai, the Minister of Internal Affairs, Qi Jia. She is 14 years old this year. This princess is slender and has a graceful figure. Her face is like a peach blossom, and her voice is like a yellow warbler. She is extremely beautiful, but...not read I have read a lot of books, and I can only know a few words, but my temperament is lively and lovely."

The Queen Mother frowned slightly after hearing this, and asked Su Mo'er to continue scrolling down.

"This is the daughter of Pei Shan, the governor of the Xiangbai Banner..."

"This is the daughter of Baylor from the Mongolian Yellow Banner..."

"..."

"This is... the daughter of E Shuo, the deputy governor of the Zhengbai Banner. She is sixteen years old. She is not only beautiful and talented, but also a good female celebrity. She has a long-standing reputation in Beijing, but...she is a concubine. .”

Su Mo'er introduced them one by one, and Ya Ruoke's mother followed the queen mother to watch the women in the portrait.

It was only when she heard about Dong E's family that she realized that the woman in the portrait was the one she and her mother saw outside the embroidery village last time, that is, the legendary woman whom Bomu Bogor regarded as a goddess. The number one beauty in Beijing.

But the woman in this portrait is different from the one they saw that day, not even the face shape is the same.

It can be seen that in this traditional Chinese painting, the characters in the paintings are indeed somewhat unresembling, and they are too different from real people.

"Fourth sister-in-law, which of these beautiful girls do you think is the best?" The queen mother looked at Su Shi and asked with a smile.

After hearing this, Mrs. Su pondered for a moment, and then said in a low voice: "Looking at this portrait, and listening to what Su Mo'er said just now, I think the most outstanding one is the daughter of E Shuo, the governor of the Zhengbai Banner. Let's not hide it from the Queen Mother." Niang Niang, we have met this Princess before, she is indeed as beautiful as a flower, her temperament is elegant and elegant, she is very outstanding, but... she is a concubine!"

"That's true." After hearing this, the Queen Mother immediately smiled. At first, she disliked that this woman was a concubine, not worthy of her own son, but as long as she is outstanding enough to hold her son's heart, she can give birth to grandsons for her. That's enough.

"That's right. Apart from that, I think that the daughter of Lang Tai, Minister of Internal Affairs is also good. Although she is not well educated, she can learn slowly." Su Shi nodded quickly.

"Okay, okay, Su Mo'er write down these two beautiful girls, you immediately send the nuns to teach them carefully to ensure that they will be selected by the emperor in two months." The queen mother smiled and ordered.

After having a heart-to-heart talk with her son a few days ago, she was very afraid that his son would not enter the harem because of his obsession with Long Yang, so she wanted to find some attractive beauties into the palace to tie her son.

"Yes." Su Mo'er nodded immediately.

But Ya Ruo heard a trace of urgency and anxiety from the queen mother's words.

Why is the queen mother in such a hurry to help the emperor choose a woman?There are many concubines in the palace, the emperor has no shortage of women!
After the Queen Mother gave Su Mo'er instructions, she turned her head to look at Su Shi and Ya Ruo and sighed, "I will not hide it from you, Your Majesty, he is not satisfied with or likes any of these concubines in the palace, but you can tell me Aijia is in a hurry."
