The queen mother took Ye Zhen's hand and walked to the table, pointing to those albums, "Look, how are these girls?"
Ye Zhen recognized at a glance that those girls were from various families, some were from the capital, some were from other places, but none of them came from low backgrounds.
"Queen Mother, what is this?" Ye Zhen looked curious and pretended not to understand anything.
"This is the picture album of this year's showgirls. The Ai family has selected a few that look good, and we will take a closer look at them when they enter the palace." The queen mother said with a smile.
Ye Zhen took a closer look, and found that the empress dowager selected all the beautiful girls she had never seen in her last life. In the last life, it should be the election of the beautiful girls hosted by Lu Shuanger. How could she give Mo Rongzhan Pick those women whose status, appearance and temperament are higher than hers, except for Liuhua who did not enter the palace through beautiful women, and few of those beautiful women who entered the palace are her opponents.
However, the ones chosen by the queen mother are different. They are of good background, good-looking, and even more gentle and pleasant. No matter what aspect they are, Lu Shuanger will be outmatched. If these beautiful women enter the palace, Lu Shuanger will not be suspicious all day long. , thought she was interested in Mo Rongzhan.
"Empress Dowager, these beautiful ladies are as beautiful as flowers and jade, and they are dignified and elegant. I think they should be good." Ye Zhen said with a smile, wishing to find more people who would block Lu Shuang'er's heart.
"The Ai family also thinks it's good." The queen mother said with a smile.
"Empress Dowager, is this Xu Huiru... the second girl of the Xu family?" Ye Zhen laughed in her heart, this Xu Huiru considered herself a talented woman and always looked down on other people. If she entered the palace, she and Lu Shuang'er would become rivals after all.
Ye Zhen can't wait to see that day.
"Yes, she is the first daughter of Prime Minister Xu's family. I heard that she is known as the number one talented woman in Beijing." When talking about the number one talented woman, the queen mother was stunned for a moment. She thought of Ye Zhen. If so, probably none of these show girls can compare with her.
Seeing that the queen mother was in a trance, Ye Zhen called softly a few times, "The queen mother?"
The queen mother came back to her senses, looked at Ye Zhen's face, and said with a faint smile, "It's a pity that you grew up in a border town. If you were in the capital, you might be able to see what a truly stunning beauty looks like."
"Queen Mother, who are you talking about?" Ye Zhen paused, and she could probably guess who the Queen Mother was talking about.
"Ye Zhen, former Princess Qin." Unlike others, the Empress Dowager did not regard the word Ye Zhen as a taboo, but she would not mention it in front of Mo Rongzhan.
Ye Zhen raised her head to look at the queen mother, she was a little speechless, she did not expect to hear her former name and identity from the queen mother.
The Empress Dowager shook her head and sighed, "That's probably the case for a girl with a bad life. Ye Zhen is very good, but the surname should not be Ye."
"It's a great blessing for that girl to be able to make the queen mother miss her so much." Ye Zhen lowered her head to prevent the queen mother from seeing her reddish eye sockets.
"If she is really blessed, she won't be..." The queen mother sighed again before she finished speaking, "It's useless to say these things now, you can accompany Ai's family to see other beautiful girls."
"Yes." Ye Zhen also felt that it was really inappropriate to talk about her previous identity, she was afraid that the grief and anger suppressed in her heart would come up uncontrollably.
Accompanying the queen mother to select a dozen or so beautiful girls, Ye Zhen thought that she should report back to the prince's office, and she would go back to cook dinner for Murongyi.
"You don't have to worry about your family worrying about you. The Ai family has sent someone back to tell your grandmother that it was the Ai family who took you into the palace." The queen mother said when Ye Zhen was about to step down.
In this way, she can get rid of the fact that Lu Shuang'er was grounded.
Ye Zhen bowed gratefully, hesitated for a while before saying, "Empress Dowager, can the servants go to see the empress dowager?"
"Why did you go to see her?" The queen mother frowned and asked, "She has been banned by the emperor, and no one can see her."
"After all, it was because of me that the imperial concubine misunderstood." Ye Zhen said guiltily.
The queen mother gave her an angry look, "If she hadn't been impulsive, she wouldn't have offended the emperor, so let her reflect on herself, and Aijia will ask her two aunts to teach her how to behave during this time."
Ye Zhen asked in a low voice, "Queen Dowager, will the Emperor hate the imperial concubine in the future?"
"As long as she reforms with her heart, how can the emperor hate her?" The queen mother said with a smile, "It's hard for you to still care about her."
"The imperial concubine is the elder sister of the minister." Ye Zhen said, she still needs to do a good job on the surface.
The Empress Dowager nodded, thinking about the comparison, she knew that Lu Shuang'er had not a problem with her tutoring, but a problem with her character. She was also a girl from the Lu family, how could Yaoyao be so much better than her? "You don't have to worry about her."
Hearing this, Ye Zhen showed a relieved expression, bowed before leaving.
Back at the prince's residence, before he entered the gate, he saw Murong Zhan coming out of it.
Ye Zhen calmed down slightly, and stood sideways, lowering her head so as not to look at Mo Rongzhan's gloomy handsome face.
She instinctively thought that this man should be in a bad mood, so she better not make him unhappy at this time, so as not to be angered.
Mo Rongzhan was wearing a dark blue brocade robe, his tall and straight figure stopped in front of Ye Zhen, he looked down at her, his jade-like face looked calm and peaceful, it seemed that whenever she saw him, her face was full of Such an expression.
Don't be afraid, don't care, and a little... disdain!
"Where did you go?" Mo Rongzhan asked coldly.
"Go back to the emperor, my servant just came back from the Palace of Compassion and Ning." Sure enough, she was in a bad mood, and her tone sounded a little scary.
Murong Zhan looked at her coldly, "What do you want?"
Ye Zhen raised her head suspiciously, she didn't quite understand what Mo Rongzhan meant, "Your Majesty, I don't understand what you mean."
"Since the little prince's illness has recovered, I will grant you one wish." Mo Rongzhan said flatly.
"Really?" Ye Zhen's eyes lit up, and the rigid and calm expression on her face immediately became vivid, those eyes were as clear as stars in the middle of the night.
Murong Zhan was taken aback for a moment. It was the first time he had seen her look so happy, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch, "You are not joking."
"Your Majesty, is it possible to make any wish?" Ye Zhen asked in a low voice.
"As long as I can do it, it's fine." Murong Zhan looked at her and said, he was looking forward to what kind of wish she would have.
Ye Zhensu pointed to the place deep in the palace, "Your Majesty, can I go inside and read?"
Murong Zhan's face darkened, "Your wish is to go to the Library Tower?"
"Is it not possible?" Ye Zhen slumped her shoulders in disappointment, she thought she could go in and take a look.
"Don't you have any other wishes?" Mo Rong looked at her sharply and asked.
Ye Zhen shook her head lightly, she couldn't think of any other wishes, she frowned suddenly when she saw Mo Rongzhan's ashen face, "Your Majesty, do you want your servant to use this wish to intercede for the noble concubine?"
