C74 (2/2)

She was dressed in a smoky purple brocade dress of butterflies, with a little emerald ruby golden water chestnut stuck in her hair, and a pendant of glittering crystals hanging from her ears. She was dressed entirely like a rich girl.

At this moment, she was extremely excited, so she naturally couldn't sit still.

From time to time, she would look around, and from time to time, she would even stand up and walk around.

Since the selection had to start from ”A”, they could only wait patiently at the bottom of the list, ”D”.

Jiang Wan glanced at the leaking pot in the corner of the room. Knowing that it was still too early, she felt a little stuffy, so she used the excuse that she had to go to the official's room, leaving the room to take a breather.

”Sister Wan'er! I knew it was you! ” Jiang Wan, who had just walked out of the room, heard a hearty voice. She turned her head and saw a silver and purple robed man dressed in a single robe, Li Qinglan, quickly walk out from the 'B' room, looking at her with a face full of joy.

It was rare to meet someone familiar within the palace, so Jiang Wan naturally welcomed them with great surprise. The two of them sat on a limestone bench in the courtyard.

”I had thought that I would be the only one to attend the Consort Selection ceremony.” Qinglan grumbled, ”Qian Shu is from the royal family, and a concubine was born in the family of Yuan Yuan and Sister Yan …”

At this point, Qinglan's words paused for a moment. She suddenly realized that Jiang Yan was using the immunity that should have belonged to Jiang Wan to participate in the selection, so she didn't come to participate in the Consort Selection ceremony, right?

However, Jiang Wan laughed nonchalantly and tried to justify Jiang Yan, ”Last year, when the records were made by the Ministry of Revenue, my father was still in Ding You, and he didn't have the qualifications to participate …”

The underlying meaning of his words was not that Jiang Yan had seized the right to be exempted from her clan.

”Earlier, we were hosting a poetry gathering at the Yongning Marquis Mansion. When we went to your house to invite you, we found out that you had actually gone to stay at the Crown Prince's Mansion.”

However, Jiang Wan shook her head with a smile, ”It's not like I know how to compose poems …”

However, Qinglan looked at Jiang Wan with a disapproving gaze. ”Isn't this just looking for a reunion? Do you really think we all have top scholar talents?”

As she said this, she let out a sad sigh and said, ”Time flies. I didn't expect that we would all have to go our separate ways in the blink of an eye. I don't know if we will meet again in the future …”

After what Qinglan said, even Jiang Wan felt a bit down.

Just like that, the two of them sat in the yard in silence. One of the attendants in the ”B Room” chanted, ”Li Qinglan, daughter of the Left Premier of the Capital, Li Changhe...”

”Sister Qinglan, it's your turn!” Jiang Wan pushed Li Qinglan, who was still in a daze, to the side.

”Wishing me the very best!” Li QingLan stood up with a determined face, her expression was so solemn that it seemed she wanted to go to the execution grounds.

Thinking that she didn't know Qinglan in her previous life, Jiang Wan predicted that she would have lost, so she covered her mouth and smiled, ”Sister Qinglan, there's no need to be so nervous. You will definitely succeed in your dreams.”
