Chapter 97

The carriage staggered up towards the elder brother's house. This is the first time since I came to the capital to attend a banquet at someone else's house, and it belongs to the elder brother's house. I believe the scene must be very lively. I can finally see the royal family holding a banquet I can't help but look forward to it with excitement.There was a commotion outside, and I heard a woman crying. I lifted the curtain and looked out, and saw several young girls imprisoned in a prison car that just passed by. I don't know what crime they committed, but they were put in a prison car at a young age.There was an officer next to them pointing at them with a whip and yelling: "Cry, you still know how to cry! I really don't know what is good or bad. It is your good luck to choose you to be a show girl. It is a blessing from previous life. What is there to cry about? If you want to run away, I tell you that running is useless, anyone who dares to take you in will be beheaded for the crime of harboring beautiful girls!"

show girl?It turned out that they were beautiful girls who were going to be sent to the palace!I couldn't help but opened my eyes and looked carefully. It was strange that they were clearly Han people from their appearance and attire. Remember that Xiunv was always selected from the Eight Banners?By the way, it seems that there is also a Han army flag. It seems that most of them are under the Han army flag.

"I just know how to run. Is it easy for your parents to raise you up so much? I don't even think about it. Once you run away, your parents will even sit. Do you even know how to sit?"

Listening to the yelling of the poor, I gradually understood that they had learned that they had been selected as a show girl and joined forces to escape, but they were chased back.Oh, it's so pitiful.It turns out that not all girls are willing to be show girls. From what I know about the history, the royal draft also depends on their background.For the daughters of official families, the draft is a good opportunity to marry into the royal family, but for the daughters of ordinary people, it is bad luck.If you can't fly to the branch to be a phoenix, you can just be a court lady until the best years of youth in your life are exhausted.

Fortunately, I am not in the Eight Banners, and my father has just resigned, so the draft will not fall on my head. Thinking of this, I can't help but feel lucky for myself.I was still in a daze, when suddenly the carriage swayed and stopped, and I took a closer look, it turned out that I had arrived at Elder Brother's Mansion.

A servant stepped forward to open the curtain for me, and Ting Lu stepped forward to help me off the carriage.

Under the leadership of Ting Yu, Ting Lu and I walked in through the main entrance, and He Xiao and Xiao Shi handed over the gifts to the registrar and followed in through the side entrance.The announcing officer was loudly announcing the name of the visitor. When it was my turn, I heard him report: "Yao Mulan, the daughter of Yao Wenyuan, former Minister of Rites, has arrived!"

"Brother Tingyu, Miss Mulan, please come inside." The elder brother greeted him with a smile.While they were chatting, I raised my eyes and looked around. Wow, it is indeed a royal residence. There are many potted plants with strange shapes, and at this moment, under the reflection of rows of red lanterns, there is a lot of joy everywhere.

On a festive day, many people gathered in the courtyard, people who seemed to be guests, and those who were waiting outside the door were all of lower status, and those with some status were waiting in the courtyard.There are also servants in Elder Brother's house running non-stop, busy arranging items and greeting guests.

Suddenly hearing what Yinti said, I withdrew my gaze and turned around, and they were looking at me with a smile.What did you seem to be asking just now?Seeing that I was stunned for a moment, Ting Lu laughed and said, "Mulan has been dumbfounded, and she doesn't even know what we are talking about."
