Ye Qiqi got out of the carriage and looked up. It was the morning, the sun was shining brightly in the blue sky, and rows of carriages were parked neatly beside the vermilion palace wall. .
One after another, beautifully dressed girls stepped down from the carriage gracefully with light steps.
In comparison, Ye Qiqi's action of lifting the curtain of the carriage and jumping out of the carriage looked particularly bold.
Ye Chengan and the others came over in another carriage.
Today's concubine selection ceremony, the most important thing is to select a concubine for Prince Jing'an, but during the various talent competitions, princes will also be invited to watch the judging. After the final Princess Jing'an is decided, if the other girls Those who are interested can also be given marriages to princes.
Therefore, Ye Chengan and Murong Hongyu followed Mo Xiuzhu's light.
The carriage they were riding in stopped not far from the palace gate, but no one got out.
Mo Xiuzhu stretched out his hand to lift the curtains of the carriage window, took a look outside, and then frowned and said: "Why are those girls all so dressed up? From this look, our Xiao Qi is a bit too simple. ”
"Where?" Ye Chengan pushed Mo Xiuzhu away, sat next to the car window and took a look outside.
The girls at the gate of the palace, almost without exception, have their hair covered with gold hairpins and emeralds. Everyone has rouge and gouache on their face and red lips. There are even those who love beauty. Use cinnabar to point out a plum blossom between the eyebrows.
Look at the earrings, necklaces, bead chains, and bracelets they are wearing. Those emeralds, gold and silver pearls are all so precious that they almost blind people's eyes under the reflection of the sun.
Ye Chengan smacked his lips, looked at it for a while, then turned to look at Mo Hanqing and said, "Look at how grandly the girls outside are dressed up, and you will know how important you are in their hearts."
Mo Hanqing turned around, glanced at him lightly, followed his gaze and glanced at Ye Qiqi, who had only a pearl hairpin on his head, and asked casually: "Why, you Prime Minister's Mansion are so poor?" It’s so bad that you can’t even get a decent set of jewelry?”
"Bah! Don't accuse a good person unjustly!" Ye Chengan reacted fiercely and said to Mo Hanqing: "My mother took out all the best jewelry in the house and gave it to Ye Qiqi to choose, but it turned out that she didn't want any of it. Wear it, as for the pearl hairpin on her head, it was my mother who persuaded her to agree to wear it."
"Oh." Mo Hanqing responded casually: "I'm just saying casually, why are you so excited?"
He paused, looked away from Ye Qiqi, and said calmly: "This is good."
"Um?"
"It's nothing." Mo Hanqing looked at the girls who got off the carriage. Under the guidance of the palace aunt, they got on the sedan and walked slowly towards the palace. Then she turned to Mo Xiuzhu and said: "Let's go." Come on, let’s go into the palace too.”
"Okay." Mo Xiuzhu nodded, opened the curtain and spoke to the coachman, and their carriage followed the last sedan at a distance and entered.
The concubine selection ceremony was held in Ganquan Palace.
There are a total of twenty-three ladies from the important ministers' families entering the palace this time, and they are all carefully selected.
