In December of the 56th year of the Kangxi Emperor's reign, the Empress Dowager passed away, and a three-year mourning period was required. Therefore, the imperial concubine selection for the 59th year of the Kangxi Emperor's reign was cancelled, and the 60th year of the Kangxi Emperor's reign would begin after the mourning period.
But now Ruoyu is already sixteen. When the next talent show comes around, Ruoyu will lose her eligibility and it will be difficult for her to find a suitable family again.
Furthermore, Heyue also heard that Ruoyu had devised her own plan to lose in the second round of selection.
Thinking of this, Heyue couldn't help but laugh in anger. This Ruoyu really knew how to cause trouble for Sixth Sister and the others. If she were discovered, it would be a capital offense.
He Yue had always known that Ruoyu was spoiled rotten by her sixth sister, but she never expected that Ruoyu would do something like this.
Sure enough, Yan Yue's face immediately turned ugly, and she gritted her teeth: "Hmph! This rebellious daughter! She's on a hunger strike right now! I've raised her for nothing all these years!"
He Yue raised an eyebrow: "Oh? What's going on?"
The fact that they've gone on a hunger strike shows that this is no simple matter.
I thought Ruoyu just didn't want to enter the palace, but now that she's been rejected, she still won't settle down. What is it all for?
Yan Yue's eyes were filled with anger: "Hmph, isn't it because she has her eyes on the Seventeenth Prince and wants to enter the Prince's residence as a concubine? She's really arrogant. Even the Seventeenth Prince didn't take a liking to her, but she still won't give up and actually tried to avoid the selection of concubines."
I heard that the Seventeenth Prince married Niohuru, the daughter of Duke Guoyi Aling'a, as his primary consort. The couple is very loving. I only married her because I didn't want her to suffer, yet she still wants me to find a way to get her into the Seventeenth Prince's household. I refused, and she started making a scene, insisting on seeing the Seventeenth Prince and begging him to allow her into his household. How could I have raised such an arrogant and ignorant daughter who doesn't understand the meaning of propriety and shame?
He Yue was taken aback, never expecting that Ruoyu would take a fancy to Yinli.
Yinli was indeed outstanding among Kangxi's younger sons. Although his birth mother was a Han Chinese woman and a concubine, he himself was handsome, talented, humble, and polite, making it easy for people to forget his background.
No wonder Ruoyu liked it.
