Chapter 28
"Is it hot? Do you want to wipe off the sweat?" Aunt Zhao asked with concern.
Bai Buling shook his head, looked at the endless queue in front of him and said in despair, "I see there are very few people in that team over there, how about we line up over there?"
Aunt Zhao shook her head, "Hey, that's the VIP channel over there, so you have to pay extra!"
Bai Buling said, "I can add, I'm quite rich."
Aunt Zhao, "Silly boy, there are many places to spend money in the future. Everywhere needs to be unblocked. Just choose a painter. Their prices are different. Some can paint ordinary people into immortals, and some can transform immortals into immortals." If you draw it like shit, it will determine whether you can advance to the top ten in the capital!"
Bai Buling was persuaded by Aunt Zhao and had no choice but to continue queuing. From time to time, he took the cup from Aunt Zhao and took a sip, but he was still too hot and wanted to stick out his tongue. His canine nature was fully exposed.
Originally, she had not planned to enter the draft. The palace's protective formation scared her. Later, she met Yun Qing at the inn, so she just packed up her bags and ran away, thinking that she would not be waiting in the capital.
As a result, while running, I met the destined Aunt Zhao again.
When Aunt Zhao learned that she was leaving Beijing and had no intention of doing the draft, she immediately lost her composure and asked her why she had abandoned herself, "Don't you want me too??"
When he learned that Bai Buling didn’t like the palace, he said, “There’s no reason why, I just don’t like it!”
Aunt Zhao rolled her eyes and immediately patted her thigh and said, "This is nothing!"
She told Bai Buling that as long as they passed the second level, advanced to the top ten in the capital, and failed in the final round, then in order to reward these unsuccessful girls, the royal family was willing to provide them with household registration in the capital, and also receive monetary rewards.
"When you have Kyoto and the royal reward, won't you be able to settle down in the capital directly?"
After hearing the deceit of Aunt Zhao, Bai Buling boarded her pirate ship without thinking.
But the actual situation is that if a woman is selected into the palace as a show girl, that is, if she passes all three tests, the guarantor can receive a generous reward of five hundred taels.
Aunt Zhao not only wants to earn Baibuling's tuition for court etiquette, but also earns royal rewards, two meals a day.
Moreover, Bai Buling had to pay for the expenses after registration. It can be said that her grandmother's family was calculated.
There is still an endless queue here, but Yunqing is about to arrive there, and Lu Jiujiu in front of her is registering.
The name is Lu Jiujiu.
Age 31 years old.
address……
guarantor……
After handing the registration form to the registration clerk, the clerk couldn't help but look up at her a few times, but without saying anything more, he directly checked the other party's identity, mainly to see if her age had been falsified, as well as her marital history and social relationships.
After everything was fine, he said, "This is your ID card. You must not lose it. Then go in from here and check your height and weight first. Next..."
Yun Qing started to register, writing the pseudonym "Yun Qing", age 189, address...
The clerk was happy when he saw the registration form handed over, "One hundred and eighty-nine years old, girl, do you have any brains..."
Just as he was about to get angry, he looked up and saw Yun Qing's face.
Suddenly, the official's anger subsided, and he even wanted to slap himself. What attitude did I just have? Am I still a human being?
He stood up and said with a gentle and humble attitude, "Miss Yun, you made a mistake here."
Yun Qing: "Oh?"
The official explained, "You probably want to write eighteen or nineteen, but you are using the number of longevity invented by His Majesty, so you cannot write it like this. It means one hundred and eighty-nine years old. Isn't this a joke? Yet."
As he said that, he crossed out the last 9 and it became 18 years old.
Yun Qing's old face was slightly red. I didn't mean to pretend to be naive. I was honest. It was this little official who changed it.
After thanking her and receiving her ID badge, she went to the back for a physical examination.
With a height of 172 cm and a weight of 100 catties, the person who measured it was very surprised.
That centimeter is also the decimal unit of weight and length prescribed by the Little Emperor of Dayue. It is indeed more useful than the measurement meter.
After measuring his height and weight until he was fine, he had to strip down to his underwear and have a physical examination performed by a female doctor. Yun Qing could never obey, so he directly captivated the female doctor's mind and passed this test.
The last thing is the portrait.
Different painters have different prices, ranging from 50 taels to 200 taels.
The painter has sample drawings around him, and the 50-tael one is not too different, but the painting is slower and the details are inferior.
Yun Qing remembered the boss's advice and found the most expensive painter.
She is still a female painter, but even if she is a woman, when she sees a same-sex beauty like Yun Qing, her eyes can't help but stare.
"Girl, can you not charge me this time?" the female painter begged.
Yun Qing suspected that he heard wrongly.
The female painter explained, "Please sit down for a while. I want to draw one more for my own collection."
Yun Qing shook his head and handed over the two hundred taels of silver notes.
The female painter felt very sorry. Her sketching skills were passed down from His Majesty himself, and she drew family portraits for His Majesty many times. She only hoped that this girl could successfully enter the palace and become a concubine, so that she would have the opportunity to draw this fairy-like painting again in the future. character.
So beautiful, this is a work of art!
In order to ensure respect for art, the female painter spent twice as long as usual to complete this painting.
She was even confident that as long as His Majesty saw this painting, Miss Yun would be able to pass the examination, enter the palace and be granted a royal title, and then have two children in three years, so she would be busy without even touching the ground.
After working hard for a long time, Yun Qing left the registration site. The results will not be released until a few days later. You have to wait patiently for this.
Just as Yun Qing left, Bai Buling finally saw the registration clerk over there. She said excitedly, "Give me a registration form, hurry up!"
~
Yun Qing wanted to go back to the inn directly, but he saw Lu Jiujiu sitting in a carriage.
She smiled and waved, "I've finally waited for you. Why did it take so long to draw? Did I choose one of those cheap painters? But it doesn't matter. Even a 50% discount on your beauty is enough to pass the first level." "
Yun Qing asked, "Are you waiting for me?"
"I'll buy you a drink. Haven't you ever drank before?"
This woman had a cheerful personality. Yun Qing thought that if Lu Jiujiu entered the palace and became a noble in the palace in the future, being an errand by her side would be a good cover.
So she smiled and got into the carriage, "Thank you very much."
The driver drove the car straight to the Eighteenth Winery. On the way, he suddenly heard the commotion outside, and there were bursts of cheers in addition to playing, playing and singing.
Lu Jiujiu opened the curtain and looked outside. It took him a long time to understand. Seeing that Yun Qing had no intention of watching the excitement, he kindly explained to her.
"It's Lao Ba."
"Who is Lao Ba?"
"He is our future brother-in-law, Your Majesty's youngest brother Yongwang Hu Gai. The Eighth Prince was just born when Your Majesty ascended the throne. He is the posthumous son of the late emperor. Your Majesty loves this youngest brother very much, so this boy has always been arrogant and arrogant in the capital. I’ve never given you money when you buy wine from my winery.”
Yun Qing hummed and said, "The clan has no control over the people and the people are the slaves of the people. The emperor cannot absolve himself of the blame."
Seeing how serious she was, Lu Jiujiu waved his hand, "I love Wujiwu too. Who makes him my future brother-in-law? If you don't give me money, I won't give you money. I don't have much money. Besides, my wine shop business has also been banned by His Majesty." The official winemaking franchise, and the distillation technology has also been announced.”
Seeing that Lu Jiujiu's eyes were filled with little stars when he talked about the little emperor, and all the other women he met today were like this, Yun Qing knew that it would be useless to talk more.
"Why did that old man make such a big fuss?" Yun Qing asked.
"Oh, he seems to have captured a cultivator from somewhere and is preparing to present it to his emperor brother."
What!
Upon hearing about the cultivator, Yun Qing immediately opened the curtain and looked over...
