Kyoto City.
There are a lot of beautiful women in the palace, Mingyu finally found something to do every day, but because there are no serious ladies in the palace, Murong Ke never cares about the draft, and all things are left to Murong Yi to take care of , the selection of show girls was a little slow.
Murong Yi has recently received many big gifts from the homes of beautiful women, hoping that he can give some beautiful women more opportunities in the palace.
"This jasper unicorn is worth a lot of money." Zhao Ning looked at the things sent by others with a big belly, holding a pair of jasper unicorns and sighed, "They really did everything they can to keep their daughter in the palace. "
"What do you do for your family's wealth? The one who gave the gift is not hoping to get double the return in the future." Murong Yi sneered, reaching out to touch Zhao Ning's belly, "No matter who comes to see you in the future, if you don't want to see him, let him see you." They go."
"Then what to do with these?" Zhao Ning looked worriedly at the things that had been piled up in half of the warehouse.
Murongyi frowned and glanced, "Send it to the palace tomorrow and donate it to the treasury."
"Then what if their daughter is not selected..." If they don't return it, those people will think that they are helping them by accepting the gift.
Murongyi snorted coldly, "Then let them go to the emperor."
"Have you seen all those beautiful women? But there are a few good ones. After all, they will live in the palace in the future and get along with Mingyu." Zhao Ning is more worried that the beautiful women will become concubines in the future, and living in the harem will definitely require a lot of attention. Get along with Mingyu, what if you treat Mingyu badly.
"There are not many good ones vying for the limelight, but there are also educated and reasonable ones who will treat Mingyu well in the future." Murong Yi whispered, what he did was also for his niece.
Zhao Ning nodded slightly, "I don't know when sister-in-law and the others will come back."
"Already on the way, but you know that my sister-in-law's medical skills are superb. When someone is sick, she will always rescue her first, and she will waste time without knowing it." Murongyi said.
"Oh, my feet..." Zhao Ning was uncomfortable sitting, and wanted to stand up, but found that his feet were cramping.
Murongyi was so frightened that he hurriedly picked her up and put her on the bed, and skillfully pressed her calf, "how is it, is it better?"
"Well, it's much better." Zhao Ning said helplessly, "Brother Huai Jun didn't have such troubles when he was a child. He really has become more and more delicate."
"It's better to be delicate." Murongyi bowed his head and kissed her forehead.
A sweet smile appeared on the corner of Zhao Ning's mouth, "By the way, I heard that the emperor has summoned a beautiful girl named Shen?"
"Did it get out of the palace so soon?" Murong Yi frowned, it seemed that the wall in the palace was leaking.
"Two days ago at Mrs. Wu's birthday banquet, I heard Mrs. Ruan mention it at the birthday banquet. She said that the emperor and this Shen Xiunv were old acquaintances, and he treated her very differently. He also asked Mingyu to go to Chuxiu Palace to meet her frequently. Getting along with each other, everyone is guessing, is the emperor planning to mention this Shen Xiu girl..." Zhao Ning didn't go on, she had never met Shen Huan'er, and she didn't know how to comment on this woman, but she was worried that it was spreading so much outside now , I don't know what's going on in the palace.
Although Mingyu seemed innocent and innocent, she actually had a clear heart. If someone was not sincerely treating her well, she would definitely be able to see it.
Murongyi said, "Shen Huan'er is the daughter of Shen Yuexuan in Canghai City. Shen Yuexuan made contributions a while ago. The emperor met her because of her father. However, the emperor and Shen Yuexuan were old acquaintances before. This is true. I heard this Shen Huan'er's life was saved by her sister-in-law back then."
"There is such a fate?" Zhao Ning asked in surprise.
"Yes." Murongyi nodded, "But I remember that all of Shen Yuexuan's family property was confiscated back then."
Zhao Ning said, "No wonder the emperor looks at Shen Xiunv differently."
"I don't know if it's different. However, this time the emperor's draft, the whole court ministers are watching, wondering if the emperor will be the queen." If there is a queen, the child born by the queen will be a legitimate son. Yu's status in the palace is embarrassing.
"Then you need to know more about this Shen Huan'er, at least know who he is first." Zhao Ning instructed.
"Well," Murong Yi nodded, "Don't worry about it, you're going to give birth soon, don't think too much about it."
Zhao Ning smiled and said, "I'm fine."
…
…
In the imperial study room, Murong Ke looked up at Mingyu who was trying to read the memorial, her pretty little face was almost wrinkled, obviously she found the memorial obscure and hard to understand, and she had a hard time reading it.
Murong Ke was a little helpless, Mingyu seemed not interested in the government, and felt depressed every time he read the memorial in the imperial study.
"Mingyu, if you feel tired, take a rest." Murong Ke said softly, he couldn't bear to see her look unhappy.
"Okay, father, I'm so tired." Mingyu immediately put down the memorial in his hand, and complained to Murong Ke coquettishly, "These ministers don't feel tired writing memorials, things that can be finished in a few words, It’s a long story every time.”
"Just focus on those few sentences, not all of them," Murong Ke said.
Mingyu said, "I haven't practiced such kung fu yet, I can pick out the key points at a glance, father, or else, you should see for yourself."
"Where do you want to go?" Murong Ke asked helplessly.
"I didn't go anywhere." Mingyu looked sincere.
Murong Ke glanced at her indifferently, "So you're not the one who goes to Chuxiu Palace every day? Could it be your maid who went there by herself?"
"..." Mingyu chuckled, if she denied it, it would be Ningxiang and Hanlu who would suffer, "Father, I just went for a walk when I was bored."
Murong Ke didn't object to Mingyu getting to know those beautiful girls, "Then how do you think they treat you?"
"Be careful, for fear of making me unhappy." Mingyu said, "Do everything you can to please me."
"Do you like them doing this?" Murong Ke asked.
Mingyu said, "I don't really like each other, but it's interesting to see them say all kinds of flattery when they obviously don't like each other."
Murong Ke laughed, "Mingyu, you are a princess now, and you are the most honorable person in this palace. They all want to curry favor with you, but they don't really treat you well. You need to find out for yourself."
"If I wasn't a princess, wouldn't they treat me like this?" Mingyu asked with a smile, "I know, they flatter me, but it's actually for the sake of my father."
"Who told you this?" Murong Ke frowned.
"Does anyone need to tell me, I have eyes to see." Mingyu's face was full of interest, "Father, have you seen those beautiful girls? Is there any one you particularly like?"
"..." Murong Ke rubbed the center of his brows, "What are you thinking about?"
Mingyu smiled and said, "I want to know who you will keep in the end."
