So for this selection, she went directly to the emperor, bypassing Concubine Hua, the current manager of the six palaces.
But she didn't know that the emperor was unwilling to hold a beauty contest. She was still thinking about how to persuade the emperor to accept it, but she didn't expect that Concubine Hua would do it.
But the Queen Mother reacted quickly.
Concubine Hua has grown up smart.
The reason why she took the initiative to persuade the emperor to hold a beauty contest and asked the emperor to give her full authority to handle the matter was because she wanted to take the initiative and ensure that the girls entering the palace would not threaten her position.
But if that's the case, the child arranged by Min Yu won't be able to get in.
Therefore, the Queen Mother immediately narrowed her eyes and smiled more friendly.

Otherwise, if Concubine Hua sees the child's outstanding appearance and blocks the child from entering the palace, all her efforts will be in vain.
[Hey, this old woman is worried that my mother will tamper with the selection process. You're mistaken. My mother is too lazy to do anything. Of course, she will send many women to the palace, letting that big pig's hoof live a life of drunkenness and debauchery every day!]
[However, the Queen Mother wanted to appear when the concubines were present before the Emperor. It's possible that she was smuggling some illicit goods among them.]
"That would be really fun. Then let me guess who this old woman pushed in..."
