Shui Ling replied: "It's almost there."

Grandma praised, "Young girl can defeat all other girls with this skill, why don't you participate in the talent show?"

Shui Ling chuckled and said, "I dare to participate, but does the emperor dare to marry you?"

Yue Wushuang couldn't help but laugh when she remembered that she said she wanted to marry Shuiling. Most people couldn't afford it, not even the emperor.

Mammy smiled and said, "The princess is joking." She remembered the engagement of the princess, and the eldest princess was not someone to be trifled with.

Shui Ling remembered that the eldest princess did not go to the opening yesterday, but the congratulatory gifts were sent to her. She must be very busy.

After the clothes were repaired, Shui Ling put them on Yue Wushuang with all her hands. Yue Wushuang had a great figure with the medicinal diet and massage these days, and she even felt shy.

Shui Ling nodded, "Okay, let's go... Where is your maid?"

Yue Wushuang shook her head, "I don't know."

Grandma frowned and said, "I'll go take a look."

The three of them went downstairs. Shui Ling saw a maid sweeping the yard next to her. She had a round face and big, intelligent eyes. She pointed at her and said, "Just her, it's too late."

This girl has a blessed look on her face, which should bring some blessing to Yue Wushuang.

The beautiful women who entered the palace did not have their own maids, so they used people from the palace for fear that they would spread the news to the outside world.

But this is of little use, after all, money can make the world go round.

The maid was flattered. All the palace maids here wore the same palace maid uniforms, but the jewelry on their heads were different. The one who swept the floor could only wear a headband, the one who served tea and poured water wore a silver hairpin, and the one who served closely wore a gold flower.

Shui Ling took out an ordinary golden flower and put it on the maid's head, "If my cousin is elected, you will be the first-class maid next to her, so do your best."

"Yes, thank you, miss." She didn't know Shui Ling.

Twelve showgirls walked in line, not spectacular, but not shabby either.

Shui Ling followed Mammy. Mammy knew that she was the emperor's favored princess, so she didn't dare to say anything.

When they came to the main hall, the emperor was sitting high, and the concubine was sitting next to him. The concubine saw Yue Wushuang at a glance.

She was a little excited, but she didn't show it, and she still smiled kindly.

The emperor said: "Today I will set up three levels. Those who pass the level will leave a sign. If you fail one level, please leave the palace."

The nun beside the concubine took a few steps forward and said: "The first level is embroidery. I will embroider a simple small object for the concubine. Just be careful and don't need to be fancy."

The palace ladies immediately led 12 people to sit down at the tables and chairs prepared outside the palace.

Each person is given a piece of black cloth, a row of embroidery thread, a row of embroidery needles and a pair of scissors.

What’s the quickest thing to do? Of course, make a purse, rectangular, with a cuff, and then decorate it with any pattern.

Yue Wushuang also thinks the same way, just do something simple, don't ask for luxury, just be regular.

Because Xiu Nu could not raise her head to look at the emperor, Yue Wushuang did not know that her own mother was sitting on it.

When she was embroidering the purse, she thought of her mother who was still struggling in the harem and didn't know if the emperor had released her. She felt uncomfortable, so she embroidered her mother's favorite peony.

Shui Ling had taught her about light and dark colors, so the peony embroidery was as three-dimensional as the real thing. She finished the pouch and put it on the tray.

After all the other show girls have finished, they will line up and send them up.

They even deliberately messed up the order so that the concubine didn't know who belonged to whom.

The concubine's eyes were also opened. She chose the most luxurious things to embroider such as phoenix, red bird, longevity pattern and peony.

Finally, she saw the peony, and tears filled her eyes. She grabbed her purse and looked left and right, and finally looked at the emperor.

The emperor understood and nodded, "Paeony wins. Let's move on to the next level."

He didn't say who lost the election, and the other women felt uneasy.

Grandma said: "The second level is to read the memorial."

Everyone was confused. The emperor was most afraid of the harem interfering in politics. Why did he let them read the memorial?

Shui Ling was also confused. What kind of show was this? Why do you need to watch the memorial?

Could it be that he just wants to see if these women can understand them? Do they have the ability to participate in politics?

I don’t know when Princess Ping’an squeezed in beside her, “What do you mean?”

Shui Ling shook his head, "I don't know either."

Princess Ping'an stamped her feet anxiously and quietly walked towards the imperial master.

Shui Ling laughed and didn't follow. Are you going to eat dog food?

In fact, the women present were very smart, and they also felt that the emperor was testing, so many of them pretended to be pretentious and even deliberately held the memorial upside down to show that they did not understand.

Yue Wushuang picked up the memorial and took a look at it. She wanted to put it down, but couldn't help but picked up a pen and drew on it. She didn't know what she wrote before putting it down.

Grandma said: "You must write at least three words, otherwise you will be directly rejected."

Is this okay? The show girls immediately started writing.

After a stick of incense was burned, the memorials were presented one by one. After reading them, the emperor rubbed his brows and said, "Let's discuss it later." Except for Wushuang, everyone was flattering.

Shui Ling curled his lips, it turned out that they were all written blindly, and it was hard for him to judge who could be elected.

Grandma continued: "The third level is talent. Choose the performance you are good at."

Most of their talents are in dancing, eight of the 12 women dance, one of the other four sings, one draws, one plays the piano, and one writes in Chinese.

The emperor saw the talent and pulled out a picture overlooking the capital. There was a sentence on it, "When a dragon looks at Kyushu, only what is in front of him is right." Yue Wushuang's.

He smiled slightly and said, "Choose someone."

The 12 eunuchs began to line up, and the emperor placed the memorial, the purse, the notes about dancing, and playing the piano in a tray.

A eunuch started counting from the end, "Return on the 12th!"

This means being eliminated, without any hope.

The eunuch then said: "How could the concubine use Suzaku for her own purposes? Points will be deducted. Please take her back."

The woman No. 12 didn't know whose noble daughter she was, so she left crying.

The eunuch added: "Return to the 11th! It is frivolous to write words of admiration on the memorial."

No. 11 also left crying.

Shui Ling frowned, must one of the seven concubines belong to Ouyang Yi?

The eunuch then said: "On the 9th time, the music played on the piano was unpleasant." This was harsh enough.

"Chapter 7, what is the meaning of the flowers and grass on the memorial?"

"Return No. 3, you use three tails to embroider a phoenix. Are you laughing at the concubine?"

Shui Ling, "..." Time is short and it's too late, so this won't work either?

It's over, Ouyang Yi is not out, it can be seen that her singing still confused the emperor.

The eunuch continued: "No. 2, No. 1, the dancing is ugly."

"Reply No. 4, unfinished embroidery."

"Chapter 6, the singing was unpleasant."

Everyone was dumbfounded. Now there were only three left. Could it be a queen and two concubines?

Shui Ling was also a little confused. Didn't he say that he wanted one queen, two noble concubines, and four ordinary concubines?

The emperor said calmly: "The imperial master predicts that I will not easily let the yin in the harem prosper and the yang decline, so this time I will choose three concubines first."
Chapter completed!
