Xi Tao directly brought Wang Zhixi to Wang Rong and the other woman, but the two sisters did not cry bitterly. Wang Zhixi said with some difficulty, ”Big sister, I mentioned to Miss Liu, who was with me, that if she was staying, we could also live together. She came out a little earlier than me, and has already chosen the position of the main hall of the rear palace. ”

”I'm not asking you to live with me.” Wang Rong was stunned. ”Seeing that you're fine is how I feel now.” ”Since you've already made an appointment, you can go. Don't worry about me.”

Liu Mu Lan secretly asked Wang Zhixi, ”Why aren't you willing to live together with your sister?”

”Elder sister's temperament.” Wang Zhixi said half a sentence, ”I was dull when I was young, and always made big sister angry.”

”You are so beautiful and yet so different from others. It must be because she is so narrow-minded and wants to make things difficult for you.” Liu Mulan said, ”It's good for you to stay with me.” She was the daughter of a farmer's family in the vicinity of Beijing. She had been living outside the palace ever since she entered the capital during the selection. She bathed every day and combed her hair time and time again. As a man, he had a sense of loyalty. They were assigned to sleep next to Wang Zhixi last night. When they couldn't sleep and chat with each other, they knew what the other party's situation was.

”Elder sister is a pretty nice person. It's just that she's a bit more serious, so she always makes people misunderstand.” Wang Zhixi said, ”Seeing that you are amiable, I have my own reasons to be close to you.”

”I also find you very dear.” Liu Mulan said. Fortunately, you told me yesterday what the situation would be today. Otherwise, when that eunuch reached out his hand to me, I would have definitely screamed and beaten him out of here. ”

”You're in the palace right now, don't say that you have a lot of strength.” Wang Zhixi said, ”Even if I can't be a concubine, there are good and bad points to be a palace maid. ”What should I do if I see how strong you are?”

”It doesn't matter. I usually do things at home.” Liu Mulan didn't feel that there was anything wrong with his words at all, and instead said with a big heart.

In the evening, the Aunt of the Palace Manager Bureau came to the Chuxiu Palace, and all the Imperial Consort Candidate stood at the front to listen in.

”At this point, the selection will have a total of two hundred ladies staying in the palace.”

”But this is only the beginning. In the next month, there will be repeated selections, and only those who remain will be able to become His Majesty's concubine. And during this month, the girls have to be very careful and do their duty. The girls need to know that the place they are stepping on right now is the imperial palace, and it is the most honorable place in the world. If they make any mistakes, they will find that being kicked out of the palace is the best punishment, otherwise, it will only affect their lives and will only harm their parents. ”

The ladies are scattered all over the Palace, and from morning till evening, and from morning until dawn, and from dawn to dusk, and from dawn to dusk, and from early to evening, they are not allowed to go out to their rooms or to leave the Palace until they are summoned.” Each chamber was provided with five palace maids and two eunuchs. There are morning and evening classes every day. It is already taboo to have an Aunt of the Palace to instruct the Lady on etiquette.

”Ladies, please pay attention. At this point, the future is in the hands of the ladies.” said my aunt.

When she entered the palace, she could only bring clothes and jewelry, not even a single piece of paper. Even if someone wanted to amuse themselves, it would be impossible. There were also people who asked if there were any needlework or cloth. If they could see the empress dowager's face, they could also pay their respects.

Wang Rong He, on the other hand, didn't have any thoughts on these matters. She just treated it as a month of closed training, and didn't want to practice her calligraphy, much less embroidery. She only frowned at her aunt, who was scolding her earlier. Would a female official of this level participate in the audition? She looked around, but no other girl had the same doubts as her? Could it be that she was the only one participating in the audition?

”Aunt said that you can directly ask palace maid for anything you need. palace maid will return it back to Aunt. Do you want some needle and thread?” Su Ruo, who shared a cubicle with Wang Rong, said.

”What do you need needlework for?” Wang Rong He said. There will be morning and night lessons every day. When the evening comes, you will be able to take a breather and do needlework with the lamp oil.

Su Ru obviously hadn't thought of this, ”It's just that if everyone else does it and we don't do it, then it's just a coincidence.”

”You didn't come to the palace to prepare a pair of filial work?” Wang Rong asked. Just you wait. If it's worth it, then we'll have to work on it on the spot. This is also the test. ”

The five palace maid s serving one hall with thirty over Imperial Consort Candidate s was also quite heavy, so Wang Rong didn't specially call Xi Tao. However, Xi Tao still went along with Wang Rong's words and prepared two meals with hot water. There were too few palace maid s, so every morning's washing was a big problem. Wang Rong and her original plan was to find someone to help them with their hair, but who knew that there were three other people in the same room, who would support Wang Rong and help her tie it up like they didn't know what to do next. Otherwise, it would just be pulling Wang Rong's hair into a mess, causing her scalp to hurt.

Wang Rong and she still went to look for Yang Jingru in the neighboring room. The two of them probed for two days and became the last person to sweep her hair. No one is a fool to serve you for nothing. After that, the girl in the cubicle didn't have time to beg Wang Rong and get her hair done. Wang Rong He could only say that he was busy too.

Wang Rong slept early, once she fell asleep it would be very difficult to wake her up. This night she slept very well, when suddenly the night sky filled with screams, ”There's a ghost!”

The mournful sound could actually make a child cry at night. The Imperial Consort Candidate s were awakened, those who were timid hugged their blankets and started crying.
