The following afternoon.
The carriages of the imperial concubines arrived one after another at the palace gate.
Before going to the main hall, Emperor Yuanwu took a detour to Qiluan Garden and brought Mu Qianqian there.
"Your Majesty," Consort Shu said with some concern.
Although Mu Qianqian has always been very well-behaved.
But such a big event as the imperial concubine selection could cause her to do something in the main hall that would damage the royal family's reputation and anger Emperor Yuanwu.
In case they blame me...
"Is there anything else, my beloved consort?" Emperor Yuanwu paused in his steps.
Consort Shu looked troubled: "Your Majesty, Qianqian is at the age where she is causing trouble. I'm afraid it would be inappropriate to bring her to such an important event as the imperial concubine selection."
Emperor Yuanwu's eyes darkened.
I seem to realize that I did indeed act without thinking.
Previously, he only wanted to bring Mu Qianqian along to see if he could hear her thoughts, and also to avoid selecting any troublemakers during the elective course.
Indeed, it was somewhat ill-considered. Emperor Yuanwu paused, just about to hand Mu Qianqian back to Consort Shu, when he heard Mu Qianqian scream.
【ah! 】
[Father, no!]
Take me there, take me there, I want to go!
I also want to see just how beautiful those palace maids are.
This is a once-in-a-century election; I've never seen a live version of it in my entire life.
Please!
"Daddy, please take me!"
[Father is the best.]
[Mom, I swear, I will never cause trouble.]
[Mommy, sob sob.]
Mu Qianqian's coquettish and cute voice made Emperor Yuanwu pause and withdraw his outstretched hand.
Consort Shu frowned slightly as she listened to Mu Qianqian's thoughts.
She always thought that only she could hear Mu Qianqian's innermost thoughts.
But this was when Mu Qianqian was just acting coquettishly.
They were clearly calling him "Daddy" repeatedly.
If Emperor Yuanwu couldn't hear her thoughts, why would she keep calling out to him?
Such a thought flashed through my mind.
Consort Shu quickly denied it in her heart.
If Emperor Yuanwu could truly hear Mu Qianqian's innermost thoughts.
So, Mu Qianqian had said so many outrageous things in her mind before.
She had already had her head chopped off by Emperor Yuanwu countless times.
Impossible! Impossible!
"Don't worry, my beloved consort, I will definitely keep a close eye on Qianqian." Emperor Yuanwu had no choice but to say this, having been driven to desperation by Mu Qianqian's antics.
Consort Shu was no different; she simply nodded in tacit agreement.
Still not entirely at ease, he gave her instructions for a while before watching Emperor Yuanwu carry Mu Qianqian away.
Consort Shu watched the two figures leave from afar and sighed silently.
“Your Highness, our Seventh Princess has always been well-behaved and obedient. She just drank a cup of milk and ate some egg custard. I don’t think she will cause any trouble.” Bin’er walked to Consort Shu’s side and looked in the direction Consort Shu was looking.
"Hmm." Consort Shu withdrew her eyes and responded faintly.
Bin'er pursed her lips: "Your Majesty, even if some of the candidates are chosen by the Emperor today, no one knows whether they will be favored in the palace in the future. Our Second Prince, Third Prince and Fifth Prince have all grown up, so Your Majesty can rest assured."
Consort Shu gave a faint smile, returned to her palace, picked up the book she hadn't finished reading a few days ago, and began to read it with her eyes lowered.
Bin'er stopped talking and silently left the room.

at the same time.
main hall.
The Empress Dowager and the Empress were already seated in the main hall, but Emperor Yuanwu was nowhere to be seen.
The Empress secretly glanced at the Empress Dowager and then gave Lan Xi a meaningful look.
