Chapter 1382 Silly Empress 14
King Duan was really amused and crying. Why did this empress say anything like a little girl?
But she is indeed a sister, but she is not only the emperor girl, but also the empress!
"Say it, say it~" Xining's eyes lit up.
Seeing the empress so interested, Duan could only bite the bullet and say, "Everyone looks good."
Xining's eyes shone: "What kind do you like? A plump or a slim or a tall or a petite?"
Everyone around laughed, but the chief manager quickly clenched his fists with his hands, raised it to his mouth, blocking the corners of his raised mouth, and coughed in a pretentious manner. The palace maids who laughed quickly lowered their heads and curled their smiles.
King Duan was very embarrassed. He felt that this emperor girl was more difficult to deal with than the women she had seen before and was very thick-skinned. Even a lady from a noble family would not dare to ask her brother in front of so many people.
Seeing King Duan’s handsome face with an unnatural expression, his mouth was about to speak but stopped. Xining couldn’t wait any longer and directly announced the answer: “I will choose whatever I like, and I will pick it back.”
"This~" Duan Wang's face was about to wrinkle. There were so many people, but who knew how many spies were there in them. If you took them back, wouldn't it be that there were more people monitoring him?
Xining saw it carefully and turned around and said, "The literate ones stand on my left, and the illiterate ones stand on my right."
The palace maids looked at each other in surprise, and the chief manager responded quickly: "What are you doing? I didn't hear Your Majesty's words, hurry up and stand in the right place."
Maybe it was a show in the assessment. The palace maids stood on the left immediately, but some people were hesitant.
The chief manager glared: "What are you doing, and you, what are you doing? You're going back and forth, do you think you're shopping."
The two palace maids were so scared that they knelt down. One of them responded: "Your Majesty, I know two words, but I don't recognize all the words. I can barely write my own name, but it's hard to write a letter from my family. I'm stupid and don't know where to stand."
The other one also said that he was like this.
"That's it~" Xining thought for a while: "Then stand in a place where you can't read."
After the two palace maids thanked each other, they stood to the right.
Most of these palace maids recognize words. After all, when they are sold in the palace, they will learn a lot of things, read, write, embroidery and other abilities. When they are ten to thirteen years old, they will be redistributed and taken to various departments according to their personal talents.
Those palace maids who are illiterate and do not know much will enter the palace later. They should be cleaning, cleaning, sorting and other things in each palace. They will also enter the palace before the age of thirteen, so even if they learn to write, they don’t learn much.
There were only seven or eight people who couldn't read. Xining thought for a while and said to the other side who knew how to read, "I have read the "Spring and Autumn Annals" and "Zuo Zhuan" to go next to me."
So most of the people who were literate came out in a flash.
Xining looked at it a little and said, "You guys can leave now! Stay the rest first."
Ah? The palace maids who recognized the words were stunned. The empress helped the king choose a concubine, but she actually refused to recognize the words.
Don’t you all need to be well-educated and highly educated women. A noble girl is also content with her talent. She has never had a high-ranking family to choose a wife and concubine, and she would not recognize her words.
The chief manager was stunned at first, then immediately said, "What are you doing when you are standing there? Let's go!"
Looking at the handsome and heroic Duan King standing there, the palace maids were unwilling to let go, but they had to leave. Many people turned back to look at Duan King when they left, hoping that King Duan could see her and stay.
King Duan knew why, so he didn't even look at the palace maids who were leaving. No matter how beautiful a woman is, she is not as important as her life. Although the empress did not take his life, it was considered for him, so how could he leave those palace maids who were no longer used?
Xining asked: "How many are left now?"
The chief executive replied with a smile: "Master, there are less than thirty left. I'll count it now."
"No need!" Xining raised her hand and made a stopping action, then said: "There is no one at home, and the absence of parents, brothers and sisters will be out of the list."
The palace maids stood there and hesitated. They couldn't understand the criteria for the person the empress wanted to choose. If they took the wrong step, they would have to go out just like those women just now.
Those who refuse to leave must leave, but no one dares to stay. That was the order given by the empress.
The literate palace maids who left behind just now guessed that this time they were looking for a lieutenant, and they were not the top scorer in the exam, so they were not out of the list. Only then can they stay. Now it is another choice, so you have to think about it carefully. You must know that when choosing concubines, they try to make the population prosperous, so that they can be blessed and can give birth as soon as possible.
Seeing these palace maids standing on, the chief manager became anxious: "Whatever you do is to do, what is it? Could it be that you still need to use it as a booklet to check it?"
Yes, the booklet clearly states everyone's name, age, origin, and family situation. Even if you lie, you will know once you check it, that is a serious crime of deceiving the emperor.
So the palace maids who lost contact at home and the only one who was left at home for some reason stood up. There were only six.
Xining hooked her fingers: "You all get closer and let me and King Duan take a good look."
King Duan almost rolled his eyes and wanted to see you, but he didn't want to see it.
The six palace maids, blushing and lowering their heads, came forward to kneel down and bow down.
"No, just stand like this." Xining put away the majesty just now, smiled and kindly: "Raise your head, don't be embarrassed, be generous, otherwise how can you know what you look like?"
King Duan looked at the empress, but he didn't expect that the empress was even more lustful than those playboys. His expression was so natural, so he must have done a lot of such things.
Think about the Empress saying such words to a bunch of handsome men, the scene must be very ecstatic.
Xining looked at it one by one and commented: "Well, this is round and smooth, with a plump waist, so I'll twist it. Well, the waist is soft, the plate is big, and it's easy to nourish... This one is neither fat nor thin, tall, and it matches the emperor's figure..."
Although the palace maids blushed, they still acted with their hands, feet, turned around, and twisted their waists in accordance with the empress's request from time to time.
King Duan felt that he was almost drunk. He could do it better than fighting; he was thicker than being in a state of shame. He was willing to give up the disadvantage.
Finally, Xining nodded: "Come these six first. I will reward you to King Duan and serve you well in the future. If you have children in the future, you will have a trust."
The six palace maids were overjoyed and immediately knelt down and thanked the Empress and King Duan.
King Duan smiled bitterly. He hadn't agreed yet. He originally should have knelt down and thanked him, but he didn't want to take him away. If he didn't speak, he wouldn't have the chance to speak.
So he said, "Your Majesty, this is absolutely impossible. I..."
Before he finished speaking, Xining interrupted: "What can I do? As long as it is the emperor's request, it will do anything."
