The palace maid raised the portraits of the Imperial Consort Candidate one by one. Five of them unfolded the portraits in front of the two empress dowager at the same time. Those who disgraced themselves at the lowest level naturally left the palace yesterday, and the portraits were not included. Empress Dowager Li and Empress Dowager Chen recalled the discussion they had yesterday about whether they should stay or not. Perhaps when they no longer had the chance to see the light of day, the owner of the portrait was still in the palace, but it no longer had anything to do with the last fifty people here.
The portrait that was left behind stood on another side, and the empress dowager had to consider it carefully.
”That's not good. Look like a fox.” As the Empress Dowager Li spoke, she recorded everything down.
”Imperial Lower Consort Guo met Imperial Consort Candidate outside the Palace of Gentle Serenity?” Empress Dowager Li said as she looked at the reporting palace maid.
”Yes, we ran into each other outside the Palace of Tzu Ning. Imperial Lower Consort Guo's palanquin stopped for a while.” The palace maid said.
”This Imperial Lower Consort Guo is too weird.” Empress Dowager Li frowned and said.
”Don't you dare call her to scold you.” Empress Dowager Chen saw her frown and said, ”Now that the Imperial Consort Candidate has entered the palace, she pointed out how she managed to get the Emperor's heart into her own before the Imperial Consort Candidate has even accepted her as a pet. Now that she has come to the Tzu Ning Palace, the Emperor's legs are going to go to her own Yi Kun Palace. You came over from the harem yourself, you don't even know this much. ” When the Former Emperor was still around, both the Empress Dowager Li and the Empress Dowager Chen were not holy people. It was natural for them to have seen a lot of things just to watch the actions of their concubines while coldly watching them.
”Naturally, the empress will be in charge of her in the future.” Empress Dowager Chen said, but she said to Palace Manager, ”Let that Imperial Consort Candidate stay behind.” She was talking about the fox like Imperial Consort Candidate.
”This time, the most good-looking person in the Imperial Consort Candidate is that Wang Zhixi. She is truly a beauty of heaven, I feel pity for her when I look at her. ” Empress Dowager Chen talked about other things.
”It is indeed extraordinary.” Empress Dowager Li continued to talk about Imperial Consort Candidate after getting lucky, ”Liu Mulan is also not bad, she's cute, charming and beautiful, her spirit is also full. It's good luck to have a female heir like her.”
”It's good for This Dowager to see the Imperial Consort Candidate.” Empress Dowager Chen said, ”Send these portraits to the Qianqing Palace for His Majesty to look over.”
”All of them look good.” Empress Dowager Li said. It's just that we have to look at each other repeatedly before we know what our aptitude is. ”
”Your Majesty, the Queen of Imperial Lower Consort Guo has sent a cup of soup over.” Feng Shang came forward with a sweet soup and said in a flattering tone.
”Leave it here.” Zhu Yijun sat cross legged on the brick bed and read the memorial but did not raise his head. Feng Shang thought about the money that the had stuffed into his sleeve and laughed. ”I heard that the Empress made this sweet soup herself, using only one meter and one bean to make it.”
”She still has that intention.” Zhu Yijun asked curiously. Bring it up for a taste. ”
”Your Majesty, the imperial concubine is waiting outside.” Zhang Cheng passed on the message, ”The Esteemed Empress Dowager has sent you a portrait of the Imperial Consort Candidate for your majesty to see.”
”Really? Xuan, come in and take a look.” Zhu Yijun said. Feng Shang thought to himself, what bad luck, why did he have to come here to send a portrait at this time, looks like His Majesty won't be going to the Yi Kun Palace today. Feng Shang moved to the side and stopped talking about the Imperial Lower Consort Guo Empress' sweet soup, he only peeked at the's expression. The Emperor was most interested in secretly selling them in Chuxiu Palace, but the rest could be sold off in Yi Kun Palace.
Zhu Yijun quickly went through the portraits, and even those that were pretty nodded, Zhang Cheng knew what he was thinking.
”What is this painting?” Zhu Yijun almost choked on his sweet soup. In the portrait, the oval face of Wang Rong and her face had become a moon-shaped face with two thick eyebrows. It was hard to say if they were ugly, but they were also completely devoid of interest.
Zhang Cheng looked down and said in embarrassment, ”The painter in this palace was truly lucky. I wonder which painting was it like, and which wasn't.”
I can't say for sure, but I can see that the other girls all have eyebrows and eyes, so maybe this Imperial Consort Candidate would look like that. The Feng Shang said that she was just a conditioned reflex of Zhang Cheng's, so no matter what, he would say a few words, ”To be able to get into the palace like this, I wonder what the selected eunuchs are doing.” Feng Shang heard that the eunuchs who were chosen were very tactful.
Zhang Cheng looked at this fool in sympathy. This lady was chosen by the Emperor, listen to his tone, what is this painting? It's not that this person looks like this, it's obvious that the Emperor has seen this lady before. Zhang Cheng said in his heart, do not panic, good days are in the future, you can only follow the emperor, and the chief eunuch will not escape.
Zhu Yijun waved his hand and rolled up the portrait. Forget it, this ugly is quite unique. ”
”Hmmm Hmmm, your majesty is really going too far.” Wang Rong and Yang Jingru were playing Go when Wang Zhixi suddenly ran in and sat beside Wang Rong. Not long later, her eyes and nose were red, and after another glance, tears were streaming down her face, as she said sorrowfully.
”What did His Majesty say?” Wang Rong did not understand. ”No, what did His Majesty say? Why are you crying here?” Stop crying, you don't look like it. ”
