On the early morning of the third day, when the sky was slightly bright, all the beautiful ladies were urged by the steward aunt of Chuxiu Palace to change their clothes and gather in the courtyard early.
Under the leadership of the steward aunt, after all the show girls had breakfast, a new round of draft review began.
First of all, it is about the review of the age of the beautiful girls. Although these have been reviewed by the Ministry of Internal Affairs before entering the palace, it is inevitable that there are people who are just like others, so they need to go through a re-examination after entering the palace.
Because the age of the marriageable princes this time is around fifteen to twenty years old, the age of the girls from the aristocratic families selected this time is controlled between thirteen and eighteen years old.
After everyone handed in their birthdays and horoscopes, they quietly waited for review. In fact, the so-called internal affairs review was just to compare the birthdates and horoscopes written by the ladies with their own.
Just check the birthdays and horoscopes provided by the government! If someone really wants to tamper with the age, they must have colluded in advance. It is difficult to find out at this moment. This operation is just a process!
After all, the daughters of the aristocratic families who are running for election this time are all from rich or noble families, and they are all relatives of the aristocratic families that the emperor needs to win over. As for the others... the emperors mostly turn a blind eye!
Secondly, there is the physical examination. The so-called physical examination has two aspects, one is the appearance, appearance and body shape. The second is the examination of the body of the beautiful woman.
Regarding appearance, appearance, and body shape, the main thing is that the emperor's trusted eunuch in charge, together with the steward aunt of Chuxiu Palace, will select those who are too fat, short of height, and hunched over.
Those whose appearance is too slovenly will be eliminated first! The remaining beautiful girls can stay and continue the next round of inspection.
Next, there is a more detailed and strict examination, which is a physical examination! Each beautiful girl is personally led by the steward aunt of Chuxiu Palace to the secret room to be examined together with the female medical officer selected by the emperor! The main point of the examination
The content includes whether there are hidden diseases in the body, whether there is body odor, etc. The most important thing is that it is necessary to verify the body and check whether the beautiful girl is a virgin! This examination is also the most shameful!
After all, these girls from aristocratic families are all inexperienced, and everyone is still a little panicked and shy during this physical examination.
Bai Yanqing looked at the beautiful ladies who went in with pale faces and came out with red faces, and felt extremely anxious in her heart.
Finally, it was Bai Yanqing's turn. She glanced at the beautiful girl who had just come out. Her red and swollen eyes were obviously from crying! Bai Yanqing was very puzzled. It was just a physical examination. As for the
Crying?
But when Bai Yanqing stepped into that secret room, she felt so regretful that her intestines turned blue! She regretted that she had been too hasty!
This is true...it's a bit embarrassing!
When the aunt in charge asked Bai Yanqing to take off her coat, she felt that her cheeks were getting hot as soon as she rubbed them!
This... is really embarrassing!
"Miss Bai, don't worry, Grandma Sun has specifically told the slaves that they will not embarrass you!"
At this time, Aunt Fang suddenly appeared from the darkness. She stepped back and personally stepped forward to comfort Bai Yanqing.
Bai Yanqing felt a little relieved when she saw that it was Aunt Fang. She also felt relieved to have an acquaintance.
With the help of Aunt Fang and the female medical officer, Bai Yanqing finally overcame her mental obstacles! She carefully took off her clothes and pants, and lay down on the soft couch specially used to examine the body of beautiful ladies!
The female medical officer and Aunt Fang carefully examined Bai Yanqing's body. The movements were gentle and did not make Bai Yanqing feel embarrassed or uncomfortable at all!
"Okay, you can get up!"
The female medical officer called softly.
Hearing this, Bai Yanqing stood up slowly, put on her clothes and pants, and walked out with Aunt Fang's satisfied smile on her face, blushing slightly!
Before going out, Bai Yanqing vaguely heard Aunt Fang saying to the female medical officer: "If Grandma Sun knew about it, she would be very satisfied!"
really!
Bai Yanqing stroked her forehead helplessly! She knew that there must be something bad going on if Grandma Sun asked Aunt Fang to come and check her body in person!
This small episode just happened to alleviate Bai Yanqing's embarrassment. After so many beautiful ladies came out, they covered their faces and sobbed in embarrassment, but she was the only one who remained calm and composed.
"Miss, are you okay?"
Cai Xing spotted Bai Yanqing coming out with keen eyes, and hurriedly went to greet her. Seeing her calm expression, Cai Xing was relieved!
"No problem!"
Bai Yanqing waved her hand towards Cai Xing, as if she didn't care much.
After a whole day of inspections, everyone was exhausted.
Finally in the evening, the steward aunt announced the results.
Except for a few whose appearance, appearance, and body shape did not match the requirements, the rest of the people passed today's test.
Some people are happy, and others are worried! Those whose appearance and body shape did not match their appearance packed their baggage that night and were sent to the palace gate by the steward aunt. In addition to their relatives, there were probably other people waiting for them.
Point your finger!
"Why……"
Seeing those people who were crying and unwilling to leave, Bai Yanqing could only sigh. She wanted to leave the palace, but she still couldn't. These people really don't know how lucky they are despite being blessed!
But how could Bai Yanqing know that this huge palace is like a prison to her. But for those girls from aristocratic families who are squeezing their heads and want to enter the palace, that is the only way. Flying onto a branch is the only way.
A chance to stand out!
Bai Yanqing thought it was a constraint, but to them, it was an opportunity and a future!
So, the saddest thing for people is that they can’t get what they desperately want, but they don’t care about what is easily available!
…
A few days later.
After many layers of screening, only a few people were left in this draft.
"Miss, the eldest prince is here again!"
Cai Xing took small steps and trotted all the way into the Chuxiu Palace.
Hearing this, Bai Yanqing felt a headache! In the past few days, Yunqi has been coming to Chuxiu Palace every day, either to bring Bai Yanqing food or to give her some fresh and exotic gadgets!
The strange thing is that Yun Ji has been quiet as if he has disappeared in the past few days, never showing up once! On the contrary, Yun Qi is running to Chuxiu Palace more and more diligently!
Bai Yanqing glanced at the thing in Caixing's hand and asked casually: "What did the eldest prince bring you today?"
Cai Xing slowly opened his hands, and saw that the thing was wrapped in a handkerchief. Cai Xing didn't dare to peek, and held it tightly, for fear of bumping the thing.
Bai Yanqing lazily took it and opened it unhurriedly. After seeing the true face of the thing, Bai Yanqing was stunned! She stood up suddenly, making such a loud movement that even Cai Xing was frightened!
"Where is the eldest prince?"
"Let's go... I just left... I guess, I haven't gone far yet..."
Cai Xing muttered, looking at Bai Yanqing's face that seemed to be eating people, Cai Xing was so frightened that he stammered!
Bai Yanqing didn't care anymore. She ran out quickly and tried to catch up with Yun Qi! But when she left the gate of Chuxiu Palace, where could she see Yun Qi?
Bai Yanqing clenched the things in her hands and walked back with a defeated look on her face.
"Miss...what's wrong with you?"
Cai Xing chased after him embarrassingly, and what he saw was Bai Yanqing's dejected look.
Bai Yanqing was stunned, without saying a word, she just spread her palms in front of Cai Xing.
"this……"
Caixing looked at the thing in Bai Yanqing's hand and was stunned.
Bracelet? Isn't this bracelet in Aunt An's hands? How did it end up in Yunqi's hands again? Could it be that Aunt An asked Yunqi to bring it into the palace to Bai Yanqing? But...why on earth did Aunt An want to give this jade bracelet to,
Entrust it to Yun Qi and ask him to bring it to Bai Yanqing? Why didn't Aunt An give this jade bracelet to Bai Yanqing when Bai Yanqing left home?
All kinds of questions instantly occupied Bai Yanqing's mind.
"Oh, the eldest lady of the Bai family is really a quick-tempered person. While she is hanging on to the third prince, she is not clear with the eldest prince at the same time. I really don't know what the two princes like about you!"
Just when Bai Yanqing and Cai Xing were thinking hard, Ji Nanyan, who didn't know whether to live or die, bumped into her again! While she was sarcastic about Bai Yanqing, she stared at Bai Yanqing with a look that caught the eye of someone.
At this moment, Bai Yanqing didn't have the leisure to talk nonsense with her, so she walked towards her room without saying a word. But Bai Yanqing didn't want to talk to Ji Nanyan, but Ji Nanyan just wanted to make Bai Yanqing unhappy!
Seeing that Bai Yanqing was silent, Ji Nanyan stretched out her hand to block Bai Yanqing's way, and then stared at Bai Yanqing with an arrogant face! It was very different from Bai Yanqing's attitude of not giving up after a fight!
"Miss Ji, if you like the Third Prince, just fight for it yourself and show your face in front of him! What's the use of troublemaking me every three days? You don't like the Third Prince, so you have to blame me for that?
I think you should go back to your Taiwei Mansion and see your parents! Ask them why they made you so disgusting!"
Bai Yanqing didn't intend to get into too much entanglement with Ji Nanyan. After all, the two of them had no deep hatred. Everyone in the deep palace was living a miserable and tiring life, so why bother making things difficult for each other?
But even if Bai Yanqing doesn't want to provoke others, these others always refuse to let her go!
"Bai Yanqing, you!"
Ji Nanyan was furious, but didn't know how to reply for a moment, so she could only stamp her feet angrily!
Bai Yanqing didn't bother to talk to her, and took Cai Xing back to the house. With the sound of the door slamming, no one noticed the trace of viciousness in Ji Nanyan's eyes!
"Miss, what do you plan to do with this bracelet?"
This jade bracelet went round and round and returned to Bai Yanqing's hands.
Originally, Bai Yanqing sent the jade bracelet to the Ji family to leave a memory for her grandfather. Unexpectedly, the jade bracelet went around in a circle and returned to Bai Yanqing! Now, she is holding this jade bracelet,
It's like a hot potato! What on earth is the Ji family hiding from me? What is the relationship between Aunt An and the Ji family?
There are so many things that I can’t even sort out!
"Tomorrow, if the eldest prince comes again, please ask him to wait. I have something to ask him!"
Bai Yanqing said to Cai Xing, Qian exhorted and Wan exhorted. Cai Xing understood and nodded.
…
At night, under the pitch-black night, two figures crossed the high palace wall and stopped on the roof of Chuxiu Palace.
"Just... gave her the bracelet? Aren't you afraid that she would be suspicious?"
"I just want to make her suspicious! If she is not suspicious, how can I explain it to her?"
"Ji family..."
"They have no choice!"
"That old man from the Keji family is not someone to be trifled with!"
"Who said I'm going to mess with him? Isn't it good to give him multiple grandsons-in-law?"
"It's good. Who doesn't like having multiple normal grandsons-in-law? It's just... I'm afraid he won't like this abnormal grandson-in-law too much!"
A sharp look penetrated the darkness and glanced at the person who spoke. Upon seeing this, the person quickly shut his mouth obediently.
"Hehe...hehe..."
The speaker laughed awkwardly twice, fearing that he would be punished innocently, so he hurriedly jumped up and ran away.
Under the dark curtain, there was only a majestic figure, staring in the direction of Chuxiu Palace, unwilling to leave for a long time...
