Chapter 296
Kyoto City, Imperial Palace.

The empress dowager was ill for a while, and finally the emperor nodded and agreed to the draft. There was a happy event and the spirit was refreshed. The empress dowager immediately had no headache and leg pain. The next day, she immediately summoned all the concubines to the Palace of Compassion and Ning, and announced to them that she was going to start the competition. To choose a show girl, she chose Yipin to assist her in managing the palace affairs, and asked the head of the House of Internal Affairs to send the draft's decree to all parts of the country.

The last time Zhao Heng wanted to marry Qi Yining, she didn't have the ability to make decisions at all, it all depended on the late emperor, now it's her turn to make the decision, she will definitely choose a woman who suits the emperor.

After being busy for half a month, the Ministry of Rites finally sent hundreds of qualified girls to her.

"Aijia has to look at them one by one, and his eyes will be blind." The Queen Mother threw away the list, "Pick out those noble ladies in the capital city first."

The grand maid Bilian selected the list and placed it in front of the Queen Mother, "Your Majesty, these are girls from various families in the capital city."

"Take out Jiaojiao's name alone." Her niece will definitely be able to enter the palace.

"Yes." Bilian ticked Zhang Jiaojiao's name and wrote it down in another booklet.

The Empress Dowager slowly looked at the names on it, matching their appearances in her mind, her gaze finally settled on Du Huairou's name, with disgust in her eyes, "This girl from the Du family... the Ai family doesn't like it no matter what."

But now the emperor needs to win over the court ministers, so Du Huairou has to stay.

"Empress Dowager, Concubine Yi has come to greet you." The maid outside came in to report back.

"Let her in." The queen mother waved her hand, her eyes still fixed on the list, she wanted to screen one by one, and choose the daughter-in-law who made her wish.

Concubine Yi came generously. As soon as she entered the hall, she saw the Queen Mother looking at the roster of beautiful women. .”

"Come here and help the Ai family, these beautiful girls are dazzled." The queen mother said.

Yipin smiled and said, "You are dazzled now, but when these girls enter the palace in the future, you will be dazzled, Empress Dowager."

The queen mother pointed at Du Huairou's face, "The Ai family doesn't like this girl from the Du family, but the emperor needs to balance the court, so he had to let her stay."

"Empress Dowager, why should you be worried? It's up to you to decide the fate of these beautiful girls entering the palace. There are many princes and young masters in the capital who have not yet engaged. Isn't it common for you to be married as the Empress Dowager?" A beautiful girl, so as not to enter the palace to compete for favor.

"You little clever ghost." The Empress Dowager's eyes lit up, remembering that there were still many young men among the royal family and nobles who were not yet married, so she just took advantage of this time to propose marriage to them.

Concubine Yi looked at the roster with a smile but said nothing, "This Changyuanhou family...has two daughters who can be drafted into the palace?"

The Empress Dowager frowned, "Marquis Changyuan?"

"Do you remember? The one who played the xun at the last flower viewing feast." Yipin said in a low voice.

The girl who messed up the emperor!

Absolutely cannot enter the palace.

The queen mother's face darkened, "Who added her name? Leave Wei Xinyu and remove Wei Wangning's name."

"This..." Bi Lian said in embarrassment, "Empress Dowager, I'm afraid the Ministry of Internal Affairs has already announced these names to the imperial list."

"It's unreasonable!" The queen mother was furious, "Who chose this beautiful girl, the Ai family wants to kill her."

"Why is the queen mother angry?" Zhao Heng's voice came in warmly.
