Rebirth Palace Chaos

Chapter 12

Su Yan slightly raised her eyes and stared, the person was no longer yesterday, time has passed and circumstances have changed, and they met again in this deep red wall of the palace, but they were speechless and alone, and ended up being strangers.

At that moment her nose was sharp and her chest was swollen, but Su Yan suddenly smiled, her smile was so gorgeous that she couldn't even shed her pretentious tears.

Duan Zhaoling didn't cast a glance at them, but pursed his thin lips tightly, and went straight into the hall.

Afterwards, Concubine Yi and Concubine Jing arrived successively in chariots. Concubine Yi was dressed in a complicated and luxurious dress that was as red as blood, while Concubine Jing was dressed in a dark green palace dress that was elegant and elegant.

Long time no see, Concubine Jing still had a calm face and stared straight ahead, but Concubine Yi suddenly looked back, her bright smile was still the same as when she first met many years ago, but at this moment, in Su Yan's eyes, it was more sinister and odious .

After a while, the imperial concubine was seated, and the hall was completely silent, only the sound of clothes rubbing against each other and slight footsteps could be heard.

As soon as the time came, a senior servant came out on time to receive the roster, and all the beautiful women entered the hall in order of surnames to participate in the election.

The one at the top of the list, as expected, was the niece of General Fuyuan, Yao Xilan.

I saw her passing the crowd arrogantly, corrected her appearance, and walked away gracefully.

Because of the distance, Su Yan couldn't move around at will, so she couldn't see clearly what was going on inside the hall.

The few beautiful girls from the side were already nervously praying in low voices and muttering to themselves.There are also those who are calm and composed, such as Chu Xiaotang, who stands alone at the end, looking at the cannas in the garden with an air of indifference.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that she was determined to lose the election.

With Su Yan's good looks and the occasional meeting in the Taiyue Temple, it must not be difficult to be selected. In her previous life, she was a noble concubine Rong, so there is no need to mention etiquette and palace rules, and she is familiar with the personnel and affairs in the palace. Much less.

After about half a cup of tea, Yao Xilan walked out of the hall with a smile on her face, clutching a jade tablet in her hand, which seemed a bit ostentatious.

Lin Qingqing tugged at Su Yan's sleeve, and said, "If we want to get along with her in the future, I'm afraid it won't be safe."

"She was selected because of the needs of the royal family, and His Majesty may not just really love her." Su Yan smiled charmingly, and said, "If there is no holy favor, naturally there is nothing to be afraid of."

Afterwards, beautiful women entered the palace one after another, and most of them were given silk flowers, and jade plaques were rarely seen. Su Yan knew that Duan Zhaoling was definitely not a person who indulged in lust, and I am afraid that the selection for the palace was just following the Queen Mother's order, choosing some high-ranking female relatives , to fill the back court.

Chu Xiaotang went in without haste, Lin Qingqing sighed, "Miss Chu's heart is not bad, but her mouth is unforgiving, it's really a pity."

"I see that she has a good chance of being selected." Su Yan understands Duan Zhaoling's temper, but Lin Qingqing is puzzled. Pay attention to three points."

Not long after, the three of them came out of the palace gate. Lin Qingqing saw that only Chu Xiaotang had the jade card in his hand, and even a lady from the Hou family like Wen Qi was not selected.

Su Yan's eyes were unique, and she could see the clues from the moment she came out. Being selected into the imperial palace, she will surely rise to the top in the future. This is something that many beautiful women dream of, but there is no joy on that face, on the contrary, there is very little Luo Luo's really strange.

It was almost noon, most of the show girls had been selected, Su Yan thought that she would have the royal meal first, and then the election, but she saw that the palace people were still in order, and there was no intention of stopping.

She raised her hand to support the bun, flicked left and right out of the corner of her eye, seemingly inadvertently, took off the two earrings and put them into the sleeves.

Just at this time, they were singing the names of the two of them, so they fell silent and moved lightly with their lotus steps.

On the main hall, Emperor Xuanwu sat upright, with a glazed jade crown covering his face, Concubine Jing was on the left, Concubine Yi was on the right, the degree of favor can be roughly seen by the seating order, and now Concubine Yi is the most respected.

Su Yan didn't look sideways, entered the palace door, lifted her skirt to salute in a regular manner, then didn't raise her head, just knelt with her head bowed.

Zhou Yu, the beautiful girl leading the way on the right, reported her net worth first, but Emperor Xuande did not respond. The hall was silent for a moment, and then Wang Zhongming said, "The lord bestows flowers, and Zhou Yu accepts the order."

The gift of flowers was a failure, Su Yan only heard the sound, but never raised her head. Seeing Zhou Yuyi swaying a few times, she took the flowers and went out.

According to common sense, Su Yan, who was supposed to be kneeling in the middle, faced the holy face. Seeing that she was not moving, Lin Qingqing raised her eyes lightly. Seeing Wang Zhongming gesturing, she whispered, "Lin Qingqing, the daughter of Lin Weihai, the right supervisor of the censor, see Your Majesty. .”

She smiled elegantly, and Emperor Xuande on the high platform paused for a while after they entered the palace, "Take a step forward and raise your head."

The voice was magnetic and elegant, but in the hall, it added a sense of awe.

Lin Qingqing was overjoyed, got up gracefully, and bowed upright again, with a soft and graceful demeanor, like spring water.

Emperor Xuanwu asked again, "Lin Qingqing, how old is Fang?"

Lin Qingqing replied, "Your Majesty, I just turned 16."

Seeing this face, Concubine Yi almost stood up from her seat, she was so surprised, she propped up her body, and held her tightly, from that demeanor to figure, she was exactly the same as the dead Tang Wanruo like!

She suppressed her emotions and turned her head pretending to be calm, but seeing that the emperor had changed as expected, his expression had changed. In the noon draft, he only said five sentences, almost all of which were directly teaching Wang Zhongming to give flowers or jade. But now he asked Lin Qingqing a few times, his joy was undisguised, and he liked it, even the attendants could see clearly that this woman could be selected firmly just by her face.

Concubine Jing put her hands on her knees and said, "Like a hibiscus emerging from water, you really live up to your name."

Emperor Xuanwu nodded slightly, white jade glazed sparkling waves, waved his sleeves, the cuffs were bordered with gold and silver threads, simple and luxurious, said, "Give me a jade token."

Concubine Yi moved, her fingers in her wide sleeves clenched into a ball, then she raised her eyebrows and smiled, "If you don't thank the Holy Grace, from now on you will live in the Sixth Palace and serve His Majesty together."

Lin Qingqing was overjoyed at this moment, the corners of her mouth could not help but upturned, she took the jade plaque carefully, and walked away respectfully.

Emperor Xuanwu leaned on the dragon chair, rubbed the center of his brows, and said, "After watching this for half a day, I feel a little tired."

Su Yan still knelt and said nothing, then Wang Zhongming looked at her, maybe he felt that this woman could hold her breath, and reminded her, "There is still a beautiful woman, the emperor will take a rest after watching it?"

Concubine Yi glanced lightly, and suddenly felt that the kneeling beautiful girl was very kind, but she couldn't remember where she had seen her before.

Emperor Xuanwu seemed to realize that Su Yan was still there, so he said casually, "Report your name."

Su Yan raised the corners of her lips, slowly raised her head, her bright eyes turned gracefully, and she saluted gracefully. The entire Huaqing Palace, as if because of the charming appearance of the woman in front of her, also brightened up.

Concubine Jing saw that the emperor did not speak, she nodded in praise and said, "This woman is so good-looking, she can make people's eyes shine."

Su Yan took advantage of the situation and said, "Su Yan, the eldest daughter of Zuo Langzhong of Jingsi Military Department, see Your Majesty."

She deliberately slowed down her tone of voice, and sure enough, Emperor Xuanwu, who was originally depressed, sat up straight from the dragon chair, leaned forward, raised his face slightly, and was speechless for a while, as if he wanted to see clearly.

Duan Zhaoling naturally recognized this voice, and his heartstrings, which had been stretched for half a day, jumped. Although there was a distance, he would definitely not mistake him for the person in front of him. Dress girl!
When I saw Yao Xilan just now, I taught him to feel regretful. He thought he would miss it, but his heart was heavy, and he didn't want to turn around at this time.

It's true that the crowd searched for her thousands of times, and the beauty was right in front of the hall.

"Smiling sweetly, looking beautiful, your father is very good at using words." Emperor Xuanwu twisted the jade tablet in his hand, and spoke leisurely, with a sense of carelessness in the continuous tone.

Anyone can hear that the expression of joy and satisfaction in these words is full of joy and joy, but this is the first time I have seen it today.

Concubine Yi suddenly recalled that Su Yan was the girl who was punished in Yanhua Palace... She couldn't believe it, but in just a few months, the person who was dying was completely unscathed and became even more delicate when she came out. Pretty.

Concubine Jing smiled slightly, but changed the subject, and said, "Why is the make-up uneven, and I haven't seen you in person, so you know that you will be so abrupt?"

Su Yan waited for this sentence, her face was a little flustered, she looked at the emperor, and hurriedly argued, "My daughter is fully equipped with accessories, but she carelessly lost one of her ears at noon. It's better not to wear it, it's not intentional to offend, forgive me to His Majesty."

Emperor Xuanwu smiled lowly and waved his hands, "It's okay, this is enough, there is no need to add color."

Such undisguised direct appreciation was really unprecedented, Su Yan was flattered and only smiled to thank her.

"I have a pair of newly made red bead earrings here, so I will reward you." Concubine Yi said kindly, her eyebrows and eyes bright.

But Emperor Xuanwu turned his head and said to Wang Zhongming, "Among the tributes offered by Fanxi the day before yesterday, I remember that there is a pair of ear pads still in the warehouse."

Wang Zhongming bowed to answer, "Is the emperor talking about Jasper Tenghuazhu?"

"That's right, I'll give it to her after the palace selection is over." After saying that, Emperor Xuanwu held the jade tablet in his hand and handed it over. His fingers were firm and fair, with well-defined joints.

Wang Zhongming winked at Su Yan, and she stepped forward, with a shy face, took the jade tablet with both hands, accidentally touched her fingers, Su Yanjiao held the jade tablet slightly, and blessed her body, "Thank you His Majesty rewards you."

Concubine Yi originally wanted to be a favor and to please the emperor, but she didn't want to but slapped herself in the ear, which was really embarrassing, but fortunately she was quick-tempered, so she replied with a smile, "If you don't dislike it, you can take mine together and take it as your own." It's my palace's will."

"Thank you, Concubine Yi, for the reward."

Su Yan took the jade card and walked out of the hall, she suddenly looked back, gave the man in the hall a light look, then walked out of the hall in broken steps.

Wang Zhongming got the order, so he followed her out, saying, "Hexi, young master, please wait in the side hall for a while, and the old minister will go to fetch the jasper teng flower bead."

"Thank you, my lord." Su Yan casually handed him a piece of Dushan Jadeite, and seeing that he refused, she said, "I'm young and inexperienced, and I still need some help from my father-in-law when I enter the palace in the future."

Naturally, Wang Zhongming understood the doorway in the palace, it was just a meeting ceremony for a new favorite to enter the palace, so it was not difficult, so he took the jadeite.
