"My face?" Tong Yueyi didn't understand what was happening at this moment. She raised her hand and touched her face, looking confused. "What's wrong with my face?"
As soon as I raised my hand, I touched the uneven pimples and acne scars on my face, "Ah! My face!"
After a moment of panic, she quickly looked at Meng Tian who was standing next to her.
Meng Tian also saw her face at this time. She was even more panicked than Tong Yueyi. Her eyes widened with disbelief, "How could this happen?!"
Tong Yueyi's maid reacted quickly, immediately brought over a veil, and protected her as they quickly walked towards the carriage.
Meng Tian also followed in a panic. After getting on the carriage, Tong Yueyi touched her face and wanted to question Meng Tian.
Ding Yucheng was left standing there in a daze. He looked at the Tong family's carriage and then at the Tu family's gate.
Finally, his gaze fell on the gate of the Tu family, and there was resentment in his eyes.
In the carriage, Tong Yueyi wanted to question, but when she thought that her father was the subordinate of the other party's father, the words of questioning were swallowed back into her throat.
Her eyes were red, and she asked pitifully and anxiously, "Sister Tiantian, why, why did my face suddenly become like this?"
She was clearly fine when she left the house in the morning, but in the blink of an eye, her face returned to its previous state.
As soon as she finished asking, she saw a faint light flash across the face of Meng Tian, who was sitting in front of her. The white and rosy veil on her beautiful face gradually faded away in the light and shadow.
In just a moment, she turned back to the way she was when she first arrived, with a dark yellow complexion and completely lost her radiant look.
She raised her hand and touched it, only to find that her skin had turned back to roughness, and she was terrified.
"System! System, what the hell is going on with me? System!!! Get out of here! My face is ruined, System!"
After shouting for a long time, the system didn't come out. She could only comfort Tong Yueyi and hurriedly hid back in the mansion.
People in the court also received the news that the emperor had appointed an abandoned woman as the head of the nine concubines.
The news was so sudden that they didn't even have time to write memorials. They could only go to the imperial study to ask for an audience after the court session.
They knelt on the ground one by one, begging him to take back his decision.
Courtiers: "Your Majesty, she was divorced because she had no children. She is not suitable, Your Majesty."
Li Yuanqi: "If she is not suitable, then you are?"
Courtier: "Your Majesty, you have all the ladies you want, why bother..."
Seeing how intense their reaction was, Li Yuanqi could only tell them his dream, but he hid the matter of the anti-poison bead.
After the dream was told, the ministers fell silent for a moment, not because they really believed the dream, but because they thought it was absurd.
Has Your Majesty really come to his senses?
In the past, his reluctance to favor his concubines and continue his family line was visibly evident, but now, for the sake of a beauty, he can even tell such a lie.
The Minister of Rites thought for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, if you really like her, it's fine to bring her into the palace, but this girl has no notable family background or talent, and... isn't the title of Zhaoyi a bit too much?"
Many noble ladies entered the palace as beauties and concubines, and even the current imperial concubine was only a concubine when she first entered the palace.
Now this divorced woman has entered the palace as a Zhaoyi? How can this convince people?
However, they also knew the emperor's temperament. It was rare for him to issue an order directly without going through the ministers. If he really did it, it meant that he really wanted it.
If they insisted on persuading him, it might make His Majesty even more motivated, so they all changed their words.
Marquis Bowang immediately understood what he meant and continued, "Yes, Your Majesty, it would be better to give the title of Talented Person Baolin, which would only attract gossip."
Unfortunately, this time Li Yuanqi didn't listen to the advice. He frowned, his eyes full of impatience, "Could it be that you want me to change my orders every day?"
"this……"
Only then did they remember that the imperial edict had already been issued and read out in public, so it was indeed difficult to change it.
He stood up and said, "Okay, that's it. No need to discuss it further."
The Emperor's grandfather said that he would treat the goddess well, but he couldn't make her the queen directly for now. The title of Zhaoyi was the highest position he could give her at this time.
But don't worry, he will always find an opportunity.
Since the Emperor's grandfather said that the goddess was here to help him, there must be a chance.
In the Tu Mansion, the maids from the palace were looking at Tu Qingyu intentionally or unintentionally.
There were four maids in total, and some of them had a hint of imperceptible contempt in their eyes.
Tu Qingyu was too lazy to pay attention to her. She had done so many tasks and the court etiquette was almost the same. She just needed to listen usefully.
Those maids who are obedient will stay, and those who are disobedient will have plenty of opportunities to be replaced after entering the palace.
After two or three days, they finally realized that although this person came from the common people, he was not someone who would be bullied.
She is also very smart. Others may take half a month to learn the rules, but they can understand them after she explains them once, and can even apply them to other situations.
Her saluting posture was even more standard and not as rigid as that of an ordinary lady.
The set of movements flows smoothly and has a unique elegance and grace.
The leading nanny praised her repeatedly and became more respectful towards her.
When they returned to their own courtyard in the evening, Nanny Wang, who had shown disdain towards Tu Qingyu from the beginning, was very puzzled.
"Why are you so respectful to her?" She is just here to teach you the rules, and she is just a commoner girl, an orphan at that. Why are you so concerned about her?
"Why?" Madam Qi sneered, "Didn't you hear what Eunuch Lu said? We will all follow Concubine Zhaoyi from now on. She will be our master, and we will share both our success and our failure."
