Huadie was worried about Yan Xiaoshu. It was difficult for the concubine to stand up in the cold palace, let alone a little girl with no background.
Therefore, Hua Die also hopes that Yan Xiaoshu can bribe the father-in-law who spreads the message to dress up more glamorously.
Yan Xiaoshu waved his hand, "No, let the father-in-law beat me."
She still didn't know what the emperor was summoning for, but even if the emperor was recruiting people to select people, she didn't want to bribe that annoying eunuch.
What's more, being relegated to the cold palace would be more conducive to her escape.
There are too many people here now, and it is impossible to think of a way to escape. There are few people in Leng Palace, and at least the supervision is much looser than other places.
Of course Huadie didn't know she had this idea, he just looked at her anxiously.
"Don't worry." Yan Xiaoshu smiled and patted her shoulder, "We still don't know what the emperor asked us to do. It's not against the rules to wear new clothes and cater to her."
Seeing that there was no one around, Hua Die whispered in Yan Xiaoshu's ear: "I heard that the emperor asked us to go because of General Shenwei."
"Ah?" Yan Xiaoshu was surprised, "What's the matter with him?"
Yan Xiaoshu felt that this powerful general was becoming more and more mysterious. She wanted to see him now. What kind of man was he? He was lame and still liked to do things.
"It's about the candidate for the general's wife." Hua Die became shy again when talking about it, and said with a red face: "Since the last time General Shenwei clearly stipulated the standards he wanted for the general's wife, the emperor has given General Shenwei the world After searching for women who meet these two criteria, a total of more than 190 women have been collected. Today should be the purpose of gathering these women to pass to General Shenwei."
"How do you know so much?" Yan Xiaoshu thought Huadie's words were reasonable, but Huadie actually knew these inside information.
Speaking of this, Huadie became sad, "When I left my hometown, my parents were afraid that I would suffer, so they sold all their property and gave it to me in order to find out information and make connections in the future."
Yan Xiaoshu suddenly realized that Huadie's parents were well versed in the ways of doing things in the palace.
But even so, she had no intention of changing into new clothes to cater to General Shenwei.
At this time, the eunuchs outside were already urging them. The emperor summoned them and did not tolerate any delay for them.
Yan Xiaoshu shook his head and said to Huadie: "It's okay, I'll just do it, it's okay."
Huadie couldn't do anything to her, but now that the eunuch was urging her, she could only do this.
Following the father-in-laws out of here, they walked all the way to Xinuang Pavilion. During this period, Huadie was always very honest and did not dare to look up. Her face was still red, and she probably thought of something about the general's wife.
Yan Xiaoshu has been observing the surrounding roads and situations. If he needs to pass by and escape from here in the future, he should at least get familiar with it.
However, after looking at it for a few times, one of the father-in-laws hit him hard on the head, "What's wrong with you? Have you ever read the Women's Code? Women should not look around while walking. Have you forgotten that you are deaf!"
Women's Code is probably a book that binds women, similar to women's rings. Yan Xiaoshu really wanted to look at this eunuch, what a broken code for women, she is a person who abides by the principle of equality between men and women in modern society!
But in order to save her life, Yan Xiaoshu couldn't bear it anymore, she shrank her neck, stopped looking at the eunuch, and stopped talking.
Seeing that she finally calmed down, the eunuch glared at her and said, "Keep walking!"
Finally, they were brought to a small square in front of the Nuan Pavilion and stopped.
Only then did Yan Xiaoshu realize that there were already many women waiting here. Looking over, there were really more than a hundred.
These are probably the one hundred and ninety six-foot-five women with cinnabar moles on their backs that Huadie mentioned.
"Stay here, don't move unless summoned!" The father-in-law warned them and left.
The scene suddenly became so quiet that you could hear the wind. All the women had their heads half lowered, with lowered eyebrows.
Yan Xiaoshu looked at the people around him and said softly to Huadie, "They all look pretty good."
Huadie nodded, "That's inevitable. The general only gave two standards, but actually it also implies another standard, that is, the appearance needs to be good, and only then can one be worthy of becoming the general's wife.
Yan Xiaoshu sighed. Women in ancient times were so pitiful, especially good-looking women. They were always waiting for others to choose them. It was so sad.
"Bang bang bang!" At this time, a few gongs and drums suddenly sounded from the front, which was to attract everyone's attention.
Then a eunuch shouted with a sharp voice: "The emperor has arrived, General Shenwei has arrived!"
The one hundred and ninety women below immediately leaned down and shouted: "Daughters of the people come to see the emperor, long live the emperor! Long live the emperor!"
Yan Xiaoshu was about to suffer from embarrassment. This was exactly the same as what was shown on TV. She didn't want to shout out such a retarded line, but Huadie held her head down and dragged her down together.
"Xiao Shu, do you want your life? This is the imperial court!" Hua Die reminded her not to do anything inappropriate.
Yan Xiaoshu sighed and could only follow the instructions.
She was really offended by this kind of gift from ancient people, but she had no choice but to live with her head held high. Her current feeling was that the moment she saw the emperor, she would lose her head all the time.
I really don’t know why everyone is so excited about seeing the driver.
Yan Xiaoshu really wanted to look up and see what the emperor looked like and how he could get so many people to kneel down and worship him.
In fact, in this dynasty, reincarnation was a technical job. If you were reincarnated into the royal family, you would be the supreme being. Once you were reincarnated into a poor family, you would basically never be able to change your life.
"Decision, don't move." Hua Die noticed her intention to raise her head and quickly stopped her.
In order to really care about her flowers and not worry, Xiao Shu finally nodded and promised not to look around, "Okay."
They lay on the ground like this for a long time before they heard the voice of a middle-aged man, "General Shenwei, these are all the women I have collected for you who meet your conditions. Are you satisfied?"
Yan Xiaoshu realized that this unpleasant and feeble voice belonged to the emperor.
But after the emperor's words came out, General Shenwei didn't respond for a long time.
In fact, the women lying on the ground were waiting for General Shenwei's answer. Their fate was tied to him.
Once General Shenwei said that he was satisfied, then they could all enter the general's mansion. Once General Shenwei said that he was not satisfied, no one could predict their fate, so for a while, everyone was waiting for General Shenwei's answer, and they were a little nervous.
However, General Shenwei did not speak for a long time. After a moment, they heard the father-in-law over there shouting to them: "General Shenwei said, let you all raise your heads."
