At that moment, a eunuch announced, "The Emperor has arrived..."
The five people quickly got up and knelt down. Fourth Master, holding Lanqin's arm, slowly walked over.
It turns out that the Fourth Prince received a letter from Lanqin and learned that today was the day Biechuk would make a choice, so he once again secretly came to the Yuanmingyuan in plain clothes.
The arrival of the Fourth Prince added even more pressure to the five of them. Just as rumored, Princess Duoluo was extremely important to the Emperor. Therefore, whoever was fortunate enough to marry the princess would practically be on a meteoric rise to power.
The five exchanged glances, the atmosphere becoming subtle, especially between Sima Bowen and Gao Feng, who exuded an air of certainty. Seeing their apparent rivalry, Lu Changkong found it amusing and decided to step in, becoming even more curious about Princess Duoluo.
At this moment, under Lanqin's arrangement, Bechuk dressed up in her finest attire. Already very beautiful, Bechuk became even more radiant and charming after being carefully dressed up, making her appear dignified, elegant, and graceful.
Seeing Princess Doro's beauty, the five men were all tempted to vie for her affections.
Lanqin believed that even in ancient times, a person's appearance was the first impression they made. Whether someone liked you or not didn't matter, but they had to look beautiful on first appearance. Seeing the five people's performance, Lanqin knew that Bechuk had succeeded in making a good first impression.
Qin Mo suddenly felt that the princess looked very familiar, and he wondered where he had seen her before.
At this moment, Bechuk involuntarily looked at Qin Mo, gave a shy smile, and reminded Qin Mo. Wasn't this the little beggar who had asked him for money on the street during the parade that day?
Qin Mo was shocked, but his face remained calm. He was surprised that he had such a connection with Princess Duoluo. He was also surprised that the princess, who was of noble status, would appear on the street, and in the form of a beggar.
Qin Mo couldn't help but glance at Biechuk, a strange feeling stirring within him. Although he hadn't initially intended to compete with others for the princess and become the prince consort, since this was the "little beggar" who had appeared before him that day, he seemed to understand something.
Biechuk approached Fourth Master and Lanqin, and bowed with a smile.
The Fourth Prince, with a tender expression, took Bechuk's hand and said to everyone with a smile, "This is my Princess Doruo, the apple of my eye. I'm sure you all know the purpose of today's banquet; I intend to choose Princess Doruo's consort from among you..."
Sima Bowen and Gao Feng exchanged a glance. Qin Mo, head bowed, was still pondering why he had encountered the princess that day. Lu Changkong stared at Bechuk, unable to look away, and a fighting spirit rose within him. Qiu Rui, though also finding Bechuk beautiful, had no interest in romance. Seeing everyone else brimming with fighting spirit, and realizing she had no chance of winning, she secretly gave up.
Bechuk sat down next to Lanqin. Lanqin secretly patted Bechuk's hand and whispered, "Do you remember everything your mother told you?"
Biechuk nodded, blushing. Only then did Lanqin feel relieved and said to the five people, "Since it is Biechuk who is choosing a consort, Biechuk has some questions he would like to ask you all first. I wonder if that would be possible?"
The Fourth Prince glanced tenderly at Lanqin and smiled, "Today, all five of you are here. If Biechuke has any questions, just ask them. I believe the five talented gentlemen will answer truthfully..."
The five quickly echoed, and Bechuk lowered her head shyly.
Lanqin smiled and took out five test papers, which she had the palace maids distribute to the five people. It turned out that Lanqin had inquired about the five people's birth dates and times, and calculated their zodiac signs. Based on the questions Bechuk wanted to ask, she also prepared ten psychological test questions for the five people to answer.
