"I will issue your appointment letter tomorrow morning. If Su Lingxue asks anything, please hold her steady first."
Xiao Li had a sullen face and waved his hand to have the food taken away. He was silent for a moment, his voice as calm as a lake without any ripples. "Did you meet Prince Duan today?"
The news in the palace was true, and Su Jin'er nodded truthfully.
Duan Wang Xiao Xuan gave her a very strange feeling, but to be honest, she couldn't explain why.
Xiao Li frowned slightly: "Stay away from him from now on."
He, the emperor's younger brother, has a dissolute nature and has a lifelong goal of challenging all kinds of women. He is unscrupulous and dares to do anything without any limits. If these two scourges get mixed together, it will be a disaster.
"If you don't tell me, I will stay away from him." Su Jin'er sighed helplessly. Xiao Xuan was a trouble-making machine, and even meeting him twice would bring nothing good. She didn't want to cause trouble for herself, and she wished she had
Stay as far away as possible.
Fortunately, she didn't know the intention of Xiao Li's words, otherwise she would definitely be furious.
The imperial study room was an important place in the court, and it was not convenient to stay there for a long time. Su Jin'er's name had not yet been crossed out from the list of beautiful ladies, and she had to return to the Chuxiu Palace before the appointment letter was issued.
After not staying for a few minutes, she found a reason to leave. When she returned to Chuxiu Palace, A Yuan was guarding the door with her head lowered.
"Miss!"
Seeing her come back, A Yuan's eyes lit up, she pointed into the room, and silently made a few mouth gestures——
The eldest lady is inside.
There was a playful smile on Su Jin'er's lips. Xiao Li guessed that it was indeed true. Su Lingxue knew that she had been summoned by the emperor, so she couldn't help but come over to inquire about the news so quickly. It seemed that it was hard to say who would be the winner tomorrow.
.
She opened the door casually, and Su Lingxue, who had been waiting inside, knew that Su Jin'er was back when she heard the little girl's voice. She quickly stood up and came over, with a little worry on her jade-like face and said: "Sister
, you are back. As soon as you left, King Duan also left. The sisters in Chuxiu Palace have already completed this round of screening, and only half of them were eliminated. You were suddenly summoned by the emperor, and you were not able to undergo a physical examination.
The final shortlist has been submitted, what should we do?"
Su Jin'er did not reveal her purpose of coming. She sat down at the table and drank a glass of water. She smiled lightly and said, "It's okay. Everyone has their own destiny. Just let nature take its course. Sister, don't worry about me."
Su Lingxue sat down next to her and said with a hint of intimacy: "You were summoned by the emperor and didn't come back for a long time. How could you not be worried, sister? This palace is no better than other places. You are my only sister. Sister
If you don’t care, who else can you care about?”
Su Lingxue's appearance is so sincere and sincere, it can be said that she is the true successor of Qiao Mengyun, and she is very skillful in acting.
Although she clearly wanted her to die in her heart, she could still act like a sister with affection on the surface, which made Su Jin'er admire her. She sighed and said unintentionally: "No matter how worried I am about this draft, sister, I will not
There is no hope. My sister is so lucky. Both the emperor and General Yuwen are arguing over you. If dad hadn't said it first, how could he go to the talent show with his status in the court and my sister's outstanding beauty?
It’s a pity to confer a good grade.”
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, did you say anything else?" Su Lingxue's face was flushed, and she looked like a little daughter. Thinking of the handsome emperor who shocked her at the first sight, even Yu Wenyi was stunned.
She automatically ignored it.
Su Lingxue wanted to know. Of course Su Jin'er would not hesitate to tell her: "The emperor naturally hopes that you can participate in the draft ceremony, but he said that he will not force your sister. He will send your sister to the palace tomorrow morning and let you choose whether to enter the palace or not.
Marry General Yuwen."
She didn't mean to deceive Su Lingxue when she said this. Xiao Li wanted to consolidate his power and had a lot to do. Although the women in the harem seemed like an insignificant part, they were indispensable in wooing the ministers to stabilize the situation.
First level. She just expressed it in a different way. As for what Su Lingxue thinks after hearing it, it is her own business.
He... also hopes that she can enter the palace?
Su Lingxue's heart was moved when she heard this, and she bit her lip in embarrassment the next second.
Ever since she met the emperor, she could never forget it. She wished that she belonged to him. Naturally, she didn't want to withdraw from the draft ceremony. But if she had to choose in front of all the ministers in the court, not only Su Cheng would meet him.
Even General Yuwen was present, so wouldn't she have violated her father's wishes and completely offended the Yuwen family?
On one side is her childhood sweetheart who she grew up with, and on the other side is the man she falls in love with. She can't let go of both of them, so what should she do?
Su Jin'er saw her hesitation and did not participate in any opinions or suggestions. She just said lightly: "Sister, why bother bothering me? Just follow your heart and make a decision. You won't regret it."
"Thank you sister for today. I have to go back and think about it." Su Lingxue forced a smile and returned to her room feeling a little out of sorts.
Seeing clearly the struggle and wavering in her eyes, Su Jin'er curled her lips and chuckled. She felt a little more relieved now that she had the idea in her heart. She tapped her fingertips on the table and called the little girl outside the door to come in.
