Chapter 225
Jin Yantang didn't seem to think much about Zhao Kehan's words, he just sat back in his seat, nodded in agreement, and said, "You're right, the Prime Minister Zuo's family is reuniting at this time, I really shouldn't bother."

The Queen Mother nodded with a smile, and asked Wanqin to find Lady Yang and Nanny Zhang, and the three each handed over the list of the most outstanding women just now. As a result, Zhao Kexi got two votes and Zhang Ruxue got one vote.

Zhang Ruxue's vote belonged to Lady Yang, while Zhao Kexi's vote belonged to Nanny Zhang and the Queen Mother.

This was indeed beyond Zhao Kehan's expectation.

According to her idea, the names on the two votes of Mrs. Yang and Madam Zhang should have been changed to "Zhao Kexi" by her people. Unexpectedly, Mrs. Yang has some ideas and came up with this idea Save the list.

And the final candidate for the palace banquet draft should be announced by Fu Pu, but since Fu Qingxi is back, this matter will naturally be done by him.

I saw Fu Qingxi coming in front of the crowd, holding the list in his hand, and said respectfully: "At this Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, the only ones shortlisted for the draft are...Zhezhou Zhao Mansion, Zhao Kexi, Miss Zhao!"

Rao already knew the ending, but Zhao Kexi couldn't help but blushed with excitement, she stepped forward to thank her respectfully: "My daughter, thank you Your Majesty, thank you Empress Dowager, thank you Lady Jiafei!"

She should really thank Concubine Jia.

Afterwards, Fu Qingxi said again: "Zhang Ruxue, the daughter of a cabinet scholar, lost the election by one vote. It's a pity. The empress dowager specially bestowed a pair of jade Ruyi and a piece of brocade!"

Zhang Ruxue's eyes darkened, she bit her lip, bowed her knees and saluted, "Thank you, Empress Dowager!"

Zhao Kexi was only the daughter of a merchant, so how could she become one of the four concubines of the Great Zhou Dynasty?

Many people looked at Zhao Kexi with envy and envy flashed in their eyes.

After all, everyone knew that it was because she had an older sister who was a concubine.

But at the palace banquet just now, these girls also tried their best, but now nothing is left behind, and they are still a little disappointed.

But the queen mother is not that stingy person. After Fu Qingxi announced the candidates, she asked Wanqin to give brocades and bracelets to every woman participating in the draft.

These are all made by the court skills, which are rare among the people, and can be regarded as a heavy gift, and with the reward from the empress dowager, they will not worry about finding a good husband's family in the future.

It's just that Jin Yantang raised his eyes and glanced at Zhao Kexi who was standing beside him, a dark light flashed in his eyes.

What everyone didn't notice was that just as Fu Qingxi announced the news, Fu Pu ordered a servant to report the news to Shang Kelan in the direction of Xianya Palace.

Tonight is just to determine the candidate, the canonization ceremony and title of the second grade must be decided on an auspicious day.

It's just that Jin Yantang was dragged to talk by the queen mother, but the atmosphere on Zuo Xiang's wife's side was a bit gloomy.

When Mrs. Shang and Shang Kelin saw Prime Minister Zuo, the three of them were both excited and happy with each other.

But soon, Shang Kelin calmed down, and after helping Mrs. Shang and Prime Minister Zuo to sit down, Mrs. Shang couldn't help touching tears in front of Prime Minister Zuo, and said aggrievedly: "You old man, how often do Prestige, he disappeared as soon as something happened, and he said he was out on business, and it took him several months to travel far away, do you know how many things happened during this time?"

"Our son was almost imprisoned, our daughter was almost murdered, and she just vomited blood in the Golden Luan Palace!"

As soon as these words came out, Zuo Xiang's face changed quickly, but he regained his composure, patted Madam Shang on the shoulder and comforted him: "Madam has something to say slowly, there are many ears and eyes here, and there is a lot of inconvenience, I will go later Then tell your husband about it."

His concerns were right. After all, His Majesty is still here, and there are some things His Majesty doesn't know. If he knew, he shouldn't treat his daughter in the calm and ignorant way just now.

Moreover, when he saw his daughter just now, he found that his daughter's expression was a little strange, but he never thought about it. After all, Lan'er is sometimes in poor health, especially when the season changes, she will always get sick.

He thought it would be the same this time, but he didn't expect that there was something else hidden in it.

Mrs. Shang nodded helplessly when she heard what Prime Minister Zuo said, but she still said unwillingly: "The Queen Mother knew that Concubine Jia was the murderer who murdered Lan'er, but she kept protecting Concubine Jia, as if Lan'er was not at all. Like her daughter-in-law, it's too much!"

On the side, Shang Kelin also interjected at this moment: "That's right, father, if the Queen Mother hadn't defended her in every possible way and allowed Concubine Jia to deal with the witnesses, at this time, the truth of what Concubine Jia did to Lan'er would have been revealed long ago, and there is no need to worry about it." Knowing what ecstasy soup Jiafei poured into the empress dowager, she actually made the empress dowager believe her so much!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Prime Minister Zuo frowned, and said sullenly in his voice: "This Queen Mother, I have known her since I was young, and I am on good terms with Mr. Jin, but she can't understand me and treats me everywhere. It's embarrassing, I didn't expect to put this grievance on the younger generation, but I thought the Queen Mother was a sensible person, but now it seems that she is also a fool!"

Prime Minister Zuo didn't want to criticize anyone at this time, because it was useless to talk about the queen mother at this time.

When he said this, he followed Mrs. Shang's wishes and changed the topic by the way. After all, even as the left minister, he couldn't get involved in some matters, and he had to tell His Majesty to solve it by himself.

Sure enough, after hearing what Zuo Xiang said, Mrs. Shang's complexion improved a little, and she turned to comfort Zuo Xiang: "Husband, don't be so angry, tomorrow I will send a post to take care of Lan'er in the palace, and I will take care of Lan'er." If you don't believe me, with a mother like me, those people dare to do anything to Lan'er!"

Hearing this, Shang Kelin couldn't help but smiled, and said, "Mother, why did you become so tough when you mentioned your sister?"

Originally Mrs. Shang was also a weak woman, but once her two children were harmed, she would let them taste what it is like to be a mother and be strong.

Mrs. Shang wanted to do whatever she wanted, Prime Minister Zuo would pamper her, so he nodded and said: "It's getting late tonight, let's go back first, and come back tomorrow to find out about Lan'er's situation."

Shang Kelin got up and said, "Then I will ask His Majesty to resign."

He said, his eyes flickering slightly.

Asking His Majesty to resign, of course, would not simply say the word "farewell" to His Majesty, since his father didn't want to say something, then he should say it!
It's just that before he got close to Jin Yantang, he saw Zhao Kehan ​​and Zhao Kexi sisters accompanying Jin Yantang, and Jin Yantang's expression was indifferent, and if he looked carefully, he could even see the impatience in his eyes.

Seeing this, Shang Kelin smiled and walked towards him.

After Shang Kelan left the hall, Li Chenxiu was the last to leave, but when he left, he glanced back at the teapot.

At the moment, there was no one in the Golden Luan Hall, so he put the teapot into his wide sleeve calmly, and walked towards the Tai Hospital.

There is something wrong with the tea in this teapot, what is added in it, he needs to check it out, otherwise when His Majesty asks, he will be speechless, it will not be a good thing for himself or Concubine Chen!
