"I didn't realize that my sister has become so smart after being sick."
"Brother, please don't tease me. I'm not stupid. I didn't see you come down from upstairs. This Wanbao Pavilion only has three floors. If you didn't come down from the third floor, where did you come down from?"
Mu Sili rolled her eyes at her eldest brother. Did he really think she was an ignorant girl? Even if she was, she still had the cheating tool 9527. How could she possibly guess wrong?
"Brother, you underestimated my sister. Have you bought everything? If not, I will accompany you to look for it again."
"No, I just bought a few sets of clothes for the concubines to wear when they were summoned during the selection. It didn't cost much money, big brother, don't worry."
"You're always so self-indulgent. When did you ever say you were worried you couldn't pay?"
"Your face is full of signs that my sister bought too much and she definitely doesn't have enough money to pay for it. My sister, please tell me and I will pay for you."
Zhu Liang smiled awkwardly. When did his sister become so smart?
"Alright, Mother is still waiting for us at the mansion to have dinner. Don't keep her waiting anxiously. Yanzhi, pack your things and prepare to go back home."
"yes."
Half a month later, Mu Sili was sent to the palace to participate in the selection. The other girls in the same batch as her included the Eighth Lady Guo Luoluo and Borjigit from Mongolia.
"This must be the Ninth Prince's future wife, Dong'e Gege. She's incredibly beautiful. I wonder if she can capture the Ninth Prince's heart and become his exclusive favorite. After all, the Ninth Prince's favorite is Concubine Liu."
"Gege Guoluo, you don't have to worry about that. Whether I can become the Ninth Concubine depends entirely on whether the Emperor issues an order. It's not that you can make me the Ninth Concubine just by saying so.
There are many beauties in this selection who are more outstanding than this princess. Before the imperial edict is issued, this princess will not tell anyone that she is the future Ninth Concubine.
I think Princess Guoluolu has already received the news, otherwise she wouldn't be so high-profile in mocking me."
"You!!! That's right. The Eighth Prince is at least a prince with the title of Beile, while the Ninth Prince is still a bald prince. The difference of one letter in the ranking makes a world of difference.
Even if you really become the Ninth Consort, you still have to bow and greet me, the Eighth Consort, so why don't you practice now?"
Before Mu Sili could say anything, Borjigit next to her became unhappy. When Kangxi took several princes to Monan Mongolia, he had seen the so-called eightieth, ninetieth and tenth princes.
They are all royal princes, so how can there be any distinction between high and low?
I am going to marry the Tenth Prince as his Tenth Concubine. This marriage was arranged by the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty and my own father. Could it be that I am also of low status in her eyes?
Besides, the Ninth Prince is the best brother of his master, and his wife is his sister-in-law. How can he let this arrogant woman in front of him bully him?
"Are you the rumored granddaughter of Prince An, Princess Guoluo, who refuses to leave Prince An's mansion? You look decent enough, but why does your mouth stink so badly?"
"Who are you and what does it have to do with you? What does the dispute between this princess and Dong E have to do with you?"
"What a coincidence! If she is the Ninth Concubine, she will be my sister-in-law. I don't know if she can become the Ninth Concubine in the end, but I will definitely become the Tenth Concubine. Do you want to compete with me in status?
A daughter born of a concubine, relying on Prince An's favor to act like a demon in the mansion, do you really think that others treat you as a dish? It's just that they give you two points for the sake of Prince An's face.
Besides, if you weren't the granddaughter of Prince An, would you still want to be the Eighth Consort? At best, you'd be dismissed as the Eighth Prince's Consort."
"How can you speak of me like that? Since you know I'm Prince An's granddaughter, you should know how favored I am. How many noble ladies in the capital dare to speak to me like you?
He is indeed a bumpkin from a remote and poor place, he has no idea about the situation in Beijing, and he wants to use his Mongolian identity to suppress this princess, it's hilarious! "
"This princess only realized today that Monan Mongolia is a poor and remote place. I, a princess of such noble status, am actually more dignified than a country girl from the same hometown.
Princess Guoluo, don't worry. I will report your words to the emperor truthfully, and I will also write a letter back to Monan to let my relatives know that our Monan Mongolia is a remote and poor place.
Since I am from the countryside, I am not worthy of the Tenth Prince, a nobleman. I will not offend anyone here. I should go back to where I came from."
Borjigit's words made Guoluo Gege's face turn pale and blue. She knew that she had said the wrong thing, but she didn't want to admit her mistake, so she froze in place.
It was Yinsi and Yin'er who learned the news and brought Yin? to solve the problem, otherwise someone would have left the palace on the first day of the selection.
"Ninth brother, tenth brother, I want to apologize to you. Princess Guoluo didn't mean any harm. She is just like that. Please don't take it to heart."
Yinzhen pursed his lips and said nothing, but Yin? was different.
Back when they were in Monan Mongolia, he and Borjigit had fallen in love with each other. How could he bear to see her being bullied?
"Myna, what you said is true. In the eyes of Guoluo Luogege, Monan Mongolia is a poor and remote place. Even a place like Khorchin should be considered a bitter and cold place in her eyes.
I don't know where she got the confidence to think she's superior to others? If Prince An hadn't taken pity on her and taken her in, and doted on her a bit more, there would be no place for her in Kyoto!"
"Tenth brother! How can you say that about her? She's going to be your eighth sister-in-law soon!"
"The Emperor's decree hasn't come down yet. Just like Dong'e Gege said, whether or not you can really become the Eighth Concubine depends entirely on what the Emperor does. It's not something that can be determined simply by what he says. My dear brother, you're too excited."
"Ninth brother, that's not what I meant."
"Master understands that whether or not Princess Guoluolu can become the Eighth Consort has nothing to do with us.
But my tenth brother is right. The Borjigit clan was chosen in Monan. Was Guoluo Gege's words a disdain for Monan or for the Emperor?
She can even distort the truth of things that are already established. My dear brother, are you really going to marry her as your principal wife?
I still hope you can think it over carefully, Tenth Brother, we should leave the palace. There are some new and interesting things in the Wanbao Pavilion. You can go with me to pick some out and give them to your sister-in-law when the time comes."
"Okay, then I'll refuse and be disrespectful."
Yinsi didn't expect that the two of them would leave like this, and no one asked him if he wanted to go with them. After all, the three of them had always been inseparable in the past, so this kind of situation had never happened before!
