Chapter 396 Choosing a Concubine

Changning Palace

The Queen Mother looked at Ye Canglan who was drinking tea silently, sighed softly in her heart, and asked warmly: "What are you going to do about the Queen's affairs?"

Ye Canglan has already found out everything about the assassin sent by the queen to assassinate Gu Zhian in Jianzhou City, and has obtained the evidence.

Ye Canglan put down the tea cup and said calmly: "The abolition of the empress is a big deal. We must consider it in the long term. Let's put it into the cold palace first. As for the rest of the people involved in the case, they will be dealt with according to the law!"

This means that many people in the Zhao family will be involved. The Zhao family, which has just gained momentum due to Queen Zhao, will soon fall into the quagmire.

The Queen Mother glanced at Ye Canglan and said calmly: "Whether she is relegated to the cold palace or not, it makes no difference to her. Hasn't she been living in the cold palace for the past five years?"

Ye Canglan was a little embarrassed and was thinking about finding an excuse to escape.

But the Queen Mother said again, "The Queen has been thrown into the cold palace, and there is not even a single person in the harem who knows how to live."

Ye Canglan probably guessed what the Queen Mother was going to say, and frowned, but when she was speaking, she was blocked by the Queen Mother, "Mother, I know that you can't let go of Gu Zhian in your heart, but what if you can't let go? She is already someone else's woman and child.

She is already four years old. Even if she does not marry that Gu clan saint son in this life, it is impossible for her to marry you."

Ye Canglan didn't know how, but the obsession in his heart could not be dissipated. He always had a feeling that many things were on the wrong track. Gu Zhian should have been his queen, and should have grown old hand in hand with him.

, but they missed each other due to various reasons.

At this time, the Queen Mother said again: "I plan to choose a concubine for you, and I have already arranged for someone to do it. Soon each family will receive the news. You must listen to me this time, otherwise I will go to Ci'an Hall to clean up and never do it again."

return."

After all, Ye Canglan could not defeat the Queen Mother. After the news about the concubine selection came out, the entire circle of noble ladies in Kyoto was shocked. It can be said that many noble ladies were waiting for this day.

Ye Canglan is young and handsome. Although he is a high-ranking emperor, he is known to be gentle and courteous in his treatment of others. Five years after he ascended the throne, there has never been any other woman in the harem except the queen. Now the choice of concubine is also because the queen made a mistake and was imprisoned.

Leng Gong, who wouldn't be surprised by such a gentle, dedicated and supreme man?

Ouyang Qian's sister-in-law was no exception. She went to Qingbai Lane early in the morning to meet her future sister-in-law and together they went to Jinxiu Pavilion to choose clothes in preparation for the general election.

Ouyang Qian was very reluctant. She didn't have much cash on hand now. If her eldest brother hadn't given her three thousand taels of silver notes, she would have planned to sell Zhuangzi.

She never wanted to go to Jinxiu Pavilion again in her life, but the person who invited her now was her future sister-in-law, so she had to give her a bit of mercy. She couldn't offend someone before they got married, so she had to reluctantly agree to go together.

Of course, Li Yixue didn't invite Ouyang Qian because she liked her. She was really short of money and couldn't afford the clothes in Jinxiu Pavilion, but she didn't want to be inferior in front of other noble ladies, so she thought of this future sister-in-law from Surabaya.

.I went to choose clothes with my future sister-in-law. Her sister-in-law is so rich, so giving her a few sets of clothes and jewelry must not be a big deal.

The two of them had their own thoughts and rode a carriage to Jinxiu Pavilion.

When the waiter in charge saw Ouyang Qian and Li Yixue, he greeted them with a smile on his face.

"Miss Ouyang, Miss Li, please come upstairs quickly. There are new materials arriving today, and the ladies from various families are already selecting them."

When Li Yixue heard this, she became anxious, fearing that all the good stuff would be picked up by others. She couldn't help complaining that Ouyang Qian had just been messing around in the house, wasting a lot of time, and hurriedly took Ouyang Qian's hand and rushed upstairs.

Ouyang Qian was unprepared for a moment. She almost knocked her head off when she pulled her. Two of the hairpins on her head were even crooked. She was so angry that her face turned pale. She glared at Li Yixue fiercely, threw her hand away, and went to herself.

Walk up slowly.

Li Yixue also grew up doting on others, and when she saw other people's glances, she was furious when Ouyang Qian glared at her, but she held it back, after all, she hadn't gotten the clothes yet.

"I'm sorry, sister-in-law, I was too anxious just now." Li Yixue forced a smile and said to Ouyang Qian.

Ouyang Qian snorted lightly and scoffed: "Why don't I just buy some clothes? It's like I haven't seen any good things before."

This is a very unpleasant thing to say. Li Yixue is the legitimate daughter of Duke Yong. Although her family is not as wealthy as the Ouyang family, she is also a well-known aristocrat. Both her father and brother are officials in the court, and they have the trust of the emperor. How often has she ever been ridiculed with a rolling eye? By Ouyang Qian like this

As soon as he sneered, his eyes instantly turned red, and he felt extremely dissatisfied with, and even absolutely disgusted with, this future sister-in-law.

At this time, shopkeeper Bai came down from upstairs. Seeing this scene, he smiled slightly and said: "You two ladies, please come upstairs quickly. Today there are newly arrived Ba Yue cage gauze of various colors and a piece of colorful silk and snow brocade."
