She already knew that there were only a few noble ladies participating in the Prince's Consort competition this year, with the exception of Lan Yixiuan.
But she was not afraid at all.
She is blessed with great luck, and this alone makes her unmatched.
"Are you two lying to me when you always say you have the best relationship with me? Your father is only a fourth-rank official, while my father is a second-rank official. You are not deliberately playing tricks on me just to get to this level of relationship with me, are you?
To be honest, I don't lack friends. Two less and two more are not too many. If you are going too far, then we don't need to keep in touch anymore."
Fang Silian and Chu Lan'er were immediately dumbfounded.
The daughter of the prime minister and the future princess, which one should I choose?
The answer came to both of them almost instantly.
They want to be the prince's consort!
But they are also afraid of not being elected. To be honest, the one among this group of people who most hopes to be elected is Lan Jinjin.
She had a great reputation and a good status. Although she was a fake daughter, fortunately the prime minister cherished her very much and treated her as his own daughter.
The grace of giving birth is not as great as the grace of raising.
I've been raising this child for a long time, and I have developed feelings for him.
The two left the prime minister's residence in shame.
On the way back, both of them kept their heads down and remained silent.
Fang Silian: "What should we do? Should we go to the imperial concubine selection meeting?"
Chu Lan'er: "I want to meet His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince. What if, I mean, what if I am chosen?"
If you participate, you will show your face, and once you show your face, you will have a chance to be selected.
If you don't attend, there will definitely be no hope at all.
Fang Silian was furious. "It's all Lan Yixuan's fault. She came up with such a bad idea. She is such an unlucky person! If I had known, I wouldn't have bothered her today."
Ahhhhh!
I'm so angry!
He is really shooting himself in the foot.
Why should I talk to that disaster star Lan Yixiuan?
This time I have dug my own grave.
…
"Brother." Lan Yixiu met Lan Moxiu on the way back to her room.
Lan Moxiu witnessed everything that had just happened. His normally calm face slightly frowned. "Father still won't let you leave the house?"
Lan Yixuan lowered her head and replied obediently: "Yeah, but I'm used to it."
Used to being cared for.
From the day she returned to the prime minister's residence, she never left the residence openly.
Every time, he would sneak out of the house in the dead of night.
In this prime minister's mansion, it seems that no one likes her except her eldest brother.
Why.
I really shouldn't have come back. Although I have no relatives in the countryside, at least I am free.
Unfortunately, it was grandma's last wish...she had to obey it.
Grandma said that she could only survive if she returned to the prime minister's mansion.
Grandma, why is that?
Her mother didn't like her at all.
"Do you regret going home?" Lan Moxiu seemed to have seen through her thoughts.
Lan Yixuan still lowered her head, eyes looking at her nose, nose looking at her heart, "No."
"After a while, your mother will accept you, don't worry." Lan Moxiu advised.
"Um."
After all, her mother had never been by her side to raise her since she was a child, so she had no feelings for her, and the same was true for her.
But what she didn't understand was that even if she didn't have any love for her, she was still her mother's child, so why did her mother treat her like a worn-out shoe?
"You have to go to the selection this time. I have sent someone to make you some nice clothes. I will send you there on the day."
"Thank you, big brother." Lan Yixiuan curled her lips. She didn't want to be selected as a concubine, nor did she want to be a prince's consort. She just wanted to be free to do what she liked.
When Lan Yixuan turned around to leave, Lan Moxiu reminded her again, "Don't be naughty that day. Control your temper and just treat it as a formality for the prime minister's residence."
He knew his sister's personality and she didn't like being restricted.
Lan Yixiuan said "hmm" and ran away quickly.
Lan Moxiu sighed as he watched the little girl leave, "Xuan'er, thank you so much."
Thanks to the little girl for bringing him buns that day.
Not far away, Lan Jinjin took in the entire scene.
The five fingers hanging at the sides gradually clenched into fists.
Even if she worked hard to "make" an exquisite wheelchair, big brother still likes Lan Yixiuan?
Are they biological siblings?
Then what am I!
…
…
Soon, it was time for the Seventh Prince to choose a concubine.
Several concubines came to Yihe Palace to look for Concubine De, all wanting to see the excitement.
Emperor Zi'an was the first among these princes to choose a concubine.
Of course, if there is a suitable match, the marriage can be arranged, and then the couple can get married after the coming-of-age ceremony (20).
Concubine Rou, Concubine Hui and Concubine Chun are all here.
Concubine De was unhappy, but she was too embarrassed to chase the person away.
As soon as Emperor Zi'an entered the room and saw so many people, he was frightened.
Oh my god!
Why is this such a big fuss?
It seems like a true story.
"They say people feel refreshed when they are happy. Why does the Seventh Prince look a little depressed today?" Concubine Rou looked him up and down.
Coincidentally, Concubine De carried Abao out from inside. Today, Abao was dressed like the little bear.
The little brown girl was wearing a brown bear hat, with her ears standing up and swaying as she walked. She was cuter than a little bear.
Concubine Rou couldn't help it, her hands were itchy, and she wanted to hug Abao right away.
Emperor Zi'an was quick and picked up Abao first.
Concubine Rou felt disappointed.
Emperor Zi'an chuckled, "Empress Rou, mother, it's time to choose a concubine. I'll take A-bao over first."
The place for selecting concubines is Yun Palace.
The weather is good today, but Di Zian really wants today to pass quickly.

He swore that after choosing a concubine this time, he would never choose another one next time no matter what.
"This child." Defei was helpless.
A group of concubines followed.
Emperor Zian was standing on the corridor, and five rows of girls were already lined up below.
Three in a row.
Fifteen in total.
Nearly half of the noble ladies of sufficient age in the capital had come.
The rest are either too young or unable to establish connections with the royal family.
Fang Silian and Chu Lan'er were also among them.
Standing in the same row with Lan Jinjin.
None of the three spoke to each other.
On the way here, the two of them had already cried to Lan Jinjin and pushed all the responsibility onto their family. Because they didn't want to come, their father broke their legs.
Lan Jinjin naturally didn't believe this.
But whether they believe it or not, Fang Silian and Chu Lan'er have to say something to keep things simple.
If Lan Jinjin gets selected, they have to have a way out.
Everyone bowed their heads.
Only Lan Jinjin held her head high.
She is very confident!
Who is she?
Little Jinlui in the capital, all good luck will fall on her head, and good things will come to her automatically.
This group of people are nothing more than a foil!
"An'er, be careful. If you like someone, write down his or her name." Concubine De instructed slowly.
Po sat on the white jade steps playing with sandbags.
Emperor Zian was right next to her.
Emperor Zian looked at Abao, then at the dozen or so noble ladies standing in front of him.
I sighed inwardly and prepared to go for a walk.
Come back after skating, haha.
[The red star on Brother Qi's head is moving]
[It’s a bit tragic, but it’s a good thing]
Emperor Zian's mouth twitched.
Who will be miserable if chosen as the princess?
He was terrified.
