The Beloved Imperial Consort

Chapter 13 Concubine

On the second day of the Xizhao Festival, the imperial concubine started to investigate the origin of the stinging spider. Due to the peculiarity of the stinging spider itself, the girl from Yuzhou was quickly tracked down, and with the assistance of the palace's special punishment staff, the real murderer behind the scenes was revealed.

Strangely, the two confessed not to bringing the stinging spider into the palace, but shouted at Jiang Pinting for framing the beautiful girl. But after all, he knew the principle of choosing the lesser of two evils, so he didn't reveal the matter of framing Mu Xiyao to add more serious crimes to himself.

In this case, it was finally determined that the beautiful girl in Yuzhou did not cultivate her personal virtues and violated the palace rules.

Mu Xiyao didn't ask about the relationship between the two of them and her, but she can guess that this is the despicableness of human nature. Some people can't see that others are better than themselves, so they destroy it first, so as not to get in the way of their own affairs. Although everyone may not know each other at all, there is no enmity or grudge.

Mu Xiyao expressed her relief that they ended up being sent back home. According to her words, this is going back to the furnace for transformation.

After that, the life of the show girls became smoother and smoother. With this act of killing chickens and monkeys, even wild monkeys will be timid and restrained. The re-election will come soon, and it will be a test of palace rules and etiquette and a talent show in the Yaohua Palace of the imperial concubine.

Mu Xiyao successfully passed the guqin "Liu Shang", and was praised as "there is a beautiful woman, and the heart of the piano is very elegant".

After the reelection, Mu Xiyao's cousin was dismissed, and only the Mu sisters were left to wait for the final election three days later. At that time, Emperor Yuan Cheng will come in person to select a good match for the princes and clan children. Of course, by the way, he also seeks some personal gain for himself.

Zong Zhenglin looked at the Wanxiu Palace in the distance from Weiyang Tower, without saying a word. This morning, the secret guard came to report that when the Fifth Prince concubine made a special trip to pay her respects to the Concubine De, she mentioned that she wanted to accept the daughter of Mu's family from Qingzhou and enter the Fifth Prince's mansion as a concubine.

This is really unexpected, that rabbit can be noisy and troublesome! What does the fifth princess mean? How dare the fifth prince and concubine know that Mu's "duty to be honest and good at giving birth" without even seeing anyone?

When did Zong Zhengming notice that rabbit? Well, there are still a few days until the imperial decree is issued, and then the accounts will be settled.

He also thought of the two beautiful girls from Yuzhou that the dark guard had been staring at. He hadn't found out yet, but they solved it. It was too coincidental. If it was really her handwriting, Zong Zhenglin thought of a saying: Rabbits will bite people when they are in a hurry. A smile flashed in his eyes.

Mu Xiyao didn't know that she had become a rabbit, and she was lamenting that her memory was getting more and more unreliable. In the garden yesterday, I actually saw the "favored concubine" of the previous Zong Zhenglin, concubine Tang Yiru.

How could this woman be here now? Shouldn't she miss this primary election because of the cold, and wait until the next general election to be accused of entering the Prince's Mansion? They actually met now, so they must be living in the West Palace, no wonder they didn't find this new "rival in love" before.

Mu Xiyao decided to wait and see what happened, Jiang's Ping Ting hadn't left the palace yet, and she was about to be beaten to death by her, so how could she use her strength to fight in the future? Tang's came just in time. Anyway, one is a fight, and two are also a fight. If there are too many people, it is easy to fish in troubled waters. There are still four people to play mahjong, not to mention that the backyard of the prince's mansion will be full of flowers in the future, and several mahjong tables can be set up.

When the final election came, there were a total of seventy-three beautiful girls remaining in the palace. Everyone dressed in uniform, and was led by the steward to the Queen Mother's Feng'an Palace.

Emperor Yuan Cheng sat at the head, and the empress dowager was sitting beside him. Concubines above the second rank in the harem sit in order according to their positions. All the show girls waited for the chief eunuch to read their names, and then they entered in groups of ten and stood in two rows.

Mu Xiyao looked at the beautiful women who came out, some of them were full of joy, while some were devastated. One person even fainted because of being too nervous, of course he was carried out with a sign. It was so good to faint, Mu Xiyao was very envious, and even wondered if that woman was just pretending? Well, this woman really can't figure out the situation. In the Great Wei Dynasty, it was a great honor for a woman and her family to be married by the emperor through the final election. In other words, it is face. No one is shameless for no reason.

However, most of the show girls here have already been called by their names, and even Mu Xiting entered the previous group. Mu Xiyao is very strange, shouldn't the order of calling names be arranged according to family background? Even Mu Xiting went in, why are you still waiting?

This has to talk about His Royal Highness Zong Zhenglin. His Royal Highness the Sixth Highness believed that since the fifth prince concubine told Concubine De that she wanted to take in Qingzhou Mu's daughter, she would do as she wished. First, get Mu Xiting in, and being the fifth prince's concubine is also her fortune. Sure enough, the concubine de concubine kept her promise, and after agreeing in advance, she opened her mouth to leave Mu Xiting's signboard.

When Mu Xiyao went in, Concubine De was very puzzled, why did another daughter of the Mu family come? Then look at Mu Xiyao's color and figure, and compare it with the woman just now, and sure enough, the fifth prince and concubine said "be honest and do one's best to give birth" should be the former one.

The color behind this one is quite good, and the fifth prince and concubine should not take this woman back to cause trouble for herself. What's more, her watery eyes are so dishonest no matter how you look at them.

This is really a big misunderstanding. The fifth prince and concubine heard Zong Zhengming's suggestion but had never seen anyone, so she had to find the best excuse. After all, which backyard doesn't want the women who come in to be honest, okay? Birth is just a way to highlight "virtuous". Who knows but made a mistake.

Concubine Shu is in a good mood now. There are three brands left in front, and I have chosen different styles of beauties. There must be something my son likes, right? I also saw Mu Xiyao who just came in. She has outstanding looks and a good family background. Her figure is even more beautiful, but she is not vulgar at all. She looks very clean and has a good taste.

I have long heard that this woman's manners are also very good. He also remembered that his son had inadvertently said that Mrs. Wu was dull and dull, and compared with this woman's lively eyebrows, she was very good and suitable, so he hurriedly asked a question and left a sign. He even looked at Emperor Yuan Cheng and signaled that this must be taken by his son.

When Emperor Yuan Cheng saw Mu Xiyao coming in, his eyes lit up, and he was about to accept her as a beauty first, but Concubine Shu interrogated her first and left a sign. I also thought it was just a woman, not worth mentioning. Such a woman is not bad for Liu Huang'er, so he nodded in agreement.

If Mu Xiyao knew that she was almost missed by Yuan Chengdi's old cow, she might even be able to kill the king and seize the throne before remarrying. Fortunately, Emperor Yuan Cheng was very wise, and he didn't bring this witch into the harem.

After the final election, all the beautiful girls go out of the palace to wait for the order. Mu Xiyao lived in her grandfather's house again, and had a good night's sleep.

Zong Zhenglin also slept quite well that night, and the dust will settle when the imperial decree comes down tomorrow.

The next day, the deputy chief eunuch brought a guard of honor to Yufu to announce the decree.

The first daughter of the Mu family in Qingzhou, Xiyao Mu, entered the Sixth Prince's Mansion as a concubine.

The concubine daughter of the Mu family in Qingzhou, Mu Xiting, entered the Fifth Prince's Mansion as a concubine.

Now the whole Yufu was shocked. This is the birth of two princes and concubines, which is incredible. And these two concubines are still sisters. This Qingzhou Mu Mansion is lucky. What's more, even though she is a concubine now, no one can tell if she will be promoted if she has an heir, right? It would be a great honor to become a side concubine. That's a blessing to be included in the royal clan.

Mu Xiyao was wondering again. In her previous life, Mu Xiting was accused of being a concubine to the clan's children, so how did she become a prince and concubine? Could this memory be any less reliable? In the previous life, she was a concubine, but in this life she is a concubine, which should be related to the previous high profile.

Mu Xiyao never thinks about those unimportant things, as long as Mu Xiting is still as good as she is now, knows how to measure, and obeys the rules, naturally it will not be much worse. After all, the fifth concubine is still a generous person. What's more, isn't there Mo Wanqing? By her side, Mu Xiyao has someone.

Now Mu Xiyao cares more about which colleagues she will have in the future. Zhao Qing's news arrived soon: Tang's Yiru is indeed still a concubine. In addition, there are two concubines: Zhang and Qi.

Well, they are all acquaintances, and this time they finally didn't deviate too far. Instead of fighting with those who don't know the basics, it is better to slowly deal with those who know the basics. As for the Jiang family, Mu Xiyao is sorry that she was slapped away by her. I still don't know where he is.

According to the imperial decree, the two concubines will be carried into the sixth prince's backyard in the middle of next month. And Mu Xiyao and Tang Yiru will enter the mansion on the same day in the first ten days of next month. All concubines and concubines and above can do the simplest gift.

Thus, Mu Xiyao's life of being married began.
