"Sister, why do you miss me so much? If you don't believe me, this servant is right here and you can kill him or chop him up as you please." Lin Xiangru said nonchalantly.
Even if Lin Xiaoxiang killed this servant at this time, what would happen? Her reputation was already ruined. Thinking of this, Lin Xiaoxiang couldn't help crying.
At this time, the Prime Minister's daughter's reputation was already ruined. If he wanted to consolidate his position in the emperor's heart, he had to rely on Lin Xiangru. Now, no matter what the truth was, he would not punish Lin Xiangru.
Even though he knew that this was unfair to his eldest daughter, he had no choice but to continue being unfair.
This matter soon reached Situ Yao's ears. He didn't like Lin Xiangru, so he originally wanted to make the prime minister's eldest daughter his concubine this time.
But now this has happened, and the Prime Minister is very determined to send his second daughter into the palace. There is no way, Situ Yao can only agree.
The day of selecting concubines soon arrived. Situ Yao finally agreed to the selection, so during this period of time, officials of all ranks did their best to collect all the beautiful and talented women of marriageable age in their respective places.
"Your Majesty, it's time to go out and take a look!" The eunuch advised. It was already late, but the emperor was still staying here, so he had to remind him.
Situ Yao sighed, knowing that he couldn't escape. If he had known this, why would he bother trying to anger Su Mengyan and get himself into trouble!
Until now, Situ Yao still regrets his impulsive decision to take a concubine, but Su Mengyan agreed.
"Go to the Queen." Situ Yao said, and walked towards the harem first.
"What? The emperor wants me to select concubines?" Su Mengyan asked the palace maid. Just now, Situ Yao came over but was stopped outside by her. She didn't expect that he came here just to ask her to help him select concubines in her capacity as queen.
At first, disappointment filled her heart, but it was only for a moment before she suppressed the discomfort.
"Well, the emperor said that after all, you are the queen, and if you don't attend, people will inevitably gossip." The palace maid hesitated, but still said it.
"Ugh!" Su Mengyan suddenly couldn't help but vomiting, and vomited all day long. The palace maid hurriedly brought a basin and placed it on the place where she vomited. After she finished vomiting, another palace maid brought mouthwash for her to rinse her mouth.
"Your Majesty, how can you go out in this state?" The palace maid couldn't bear to watch it anymore and wanted to persuade Su Mengyan.
At this time, Su Mengzhen was vomiting so hard that she felt really uncomfortable. She wanted to go and see a doctor, but she had to refuse.
"Did the Queen really say that?" Situ Yao couldn't believe what the palace maid said. He felt that for this kind of thing, it would be more confident if Su Mengyan accompanied him.
However, Su Mengyan actually refused. Situ Yao didn't know that Su Mengyan refused the audition because she vomited violently. He thought that Su Mengyan was just angry and didn't want to go.
Forget it, it’s my fault anyway, so just go with it!
At the talent show, hundreds of women were scattered in a palace, which was a place specifically used for the talent show.
During this period of time, professional maids have taught them some basic rules. Therefore, although there are many people now, they are all in their own camps and there is no chaos.
These people included daughters of officials as well as women selected from the public.
In the eyes of the women of official families, even if those commoner women were wearing the same clothes as themselves, they could not hide the smell of poverty on their bodies.
"The Emperor has arrived!" A sharp voice spread throughout the palace.
In an instant, the originally quiet scene suddenly became chaotic.
"That's the emperor? He looks so young!"
"Phew! So nervous!"
"The Emperor is so handsome!"
This sound only appeared for a moment and then disappeared immediately.
The rules they had learned told them that they could not talk too much at this time, and should even remain absolutely silent.
There is a dragon throne on the highest platform, which is Situ Yao's seat.
There is a platform slightly higher than the flat bottom below the high platform, and that is where the concubines will stand.
Situ Yao slowly walked to the dragon throne and sat down. At this time, the girls who had participated in the selection had already lined up and were standing at the bottom waiting to be summoned by Situ Yao.
At this moment, they had a faint smile on their faces, perhaps a little nervous, but they could only take a deep breath to let go of the nervousness. For some, this was a chance to change their destiny, success or failure depended on this one move.
Looking at the rows of beauties, Situ Yao nodded. The eunuch immediately understood and said loudly, "The selection begins."
Teams of beauties came up on the stage one after another. Under Situ Yao's selection, those who were chosen were very happy, while those who were not chosen were very upset.
After a while, it was Lin Xiangru's team's turn. Lin Xiangru was proud of herself as the daughter of the prime minister. She knew that Situ Yao would definitely choose her, so she was not worried at all. Instead, she looked very proud.
The beauties on the high platform all lowered their heads and could not look directly at Situ Yao, and the same was true for Lin Xiangru.
Then she heard Situ Yao's voice beside her: "Raise your head."
Lin Xiangru thought he was being talked about and raised his head, but he found that the woman next to him also raised her head.
It turned out that Situ Yao wanted the man to look up, and Lin Xiangru's face turned red with embarrassment.
There was a hint of amusement in Situ Yao's eyes. He deliberately wanted Lin Xiangru to misunderstand and embarrass Lin Xiangru in this situation.
"Well, good, it's you." Situ Yao nodded to the woman who raised her head to express his satisfaction, then he looked at Lin Xiangru and said, "This one is also fine." But Situ Yao's action made Lin Xiangru very embarrassed.
After staying here for a few days, Lin Xiangru was able to recognize the commoner girl and the official girl. She found that Situ Yao had just chosen a commoner girl, and this commoner girl was actually ranked ahead of her. How could Lin Xiangru, who had always been proud and arrogant, not feel angry?
But despite his anger, Prime Minister Lin did not dare to do anything at this time.
"Appoint Lin Xiangru as a noble." Situ Yao's next words made Lin Xiangru excited again.
Noble Lady, I didn’t expect that I would get the title of Noble Lady just after entering the palace. It seems that my future is still very good. Thinking of what my mother said about my fate as a noble concubine, a smile appeared on Lin Xiangru’s face.
After the selection was over, Lin Xiangru came to Wanliuju, which was her residence.
She was not the only one in Wanliuju, but in Lin Xiangru's heart, her status was completely incomparable to anyone else.
