Chapter 437 Scare
"Meet Mammy."

When the woman in the hall heard the noise, she quickly stood up and saluted.

"Ok!"

Ma Ma nodded with a straight face, looked around at everyone, her eyes stopped at little Shen, and said with a smile: "Shen from Yuzhou and Zhou from Zhengzhou step out!"

Zhou was delighted when she heard this and walked out.

Xiao Shen didn't know the situation and walked out with a puzzled look on her face.

"Meet Mammy!"

"You two follow me!"

After saying this, Ma Ma turned around and walked out.

When they arrived outside the palace, Ma said, "You two have been selected. You just need to make sure you are virgins, and then you will be the concubines of the Chuxiu Palace. If you can..."

"and many more!"

Little Shen was startled and interrupted Ma's words, saying, "Ma'am, are you mistaken? I just acted so..."

"presumptuous!"

The maid behind Ma Ma shouted coldly, "Ma Ma, you haven't finished talking yet. Who told you to interrupt?"

The maids and nurses in Chuxiu Palace are responsible for teaching and training the concubines, and they have the power to punish them.

These people are directly under the jurisdiction of the queen. Even if one of the concubines becomes favored in the future and wants to take revenge, the queen will protect her.

Otherwise, no one is sure who will be favored, and these palace maids and nannies are afraid of retaliation, so they dare not discipline.

Ma Ma was also a little unhappy, but she didn't dare to get angry when she thought of Zhao Xing's instructions to let Xiao Shen sleep with her tonight. She waved her hand to stop the palace maid and said with a smile: "The selection is based on comprehensive considerations of all aspects, not just one. Now you have passed."

Xiao Shen opened her mouth when she heard that. She really wanted to say that she didn't want to be selected, but she was not a fool. If she participated in the talent show and then said she didn't want to be selected after being selected, wouldn't that be courting death?

Don't want to be selected for something? Or do you not want to serve His Majesty?
"Come with me!"

Nanny Ma just thought that little Shen was too happy, so she didn't take it to heart and walked away after saying that.

"Come on!"

Seeing that Xiao Shen was still standing there in a daze, Zhou pulled her and reminded her in a low voice.

She was naturally not that kind-hearted, as the selected beauties were all competitors to each other.

However, she also knew that it was impossible to choose only her, and Xiao Shen was inferior to her in every aspect and posed no threat.

What's more, it is the contrast that makes her stand out.

She hoped that those who were selected would be people like Xiao Shen, but she didn't want Xiao Shen to anger the nanny and be eliminated.

"oh oh!"

Xiao Shen came to her senses and hurriedly followed.

Nanny Ma led the two of them through a corridor and into a courtyard.

The two were handed over to a maid, who took them to check whether they were virgins.

After about an incense stick of time, the checking nanny led out the two people who looked embarrassed.

The examination just now was so embarrassing. They are still virgins and have never experienced this before.

"They are all virgins." The checking nanny said with a smile.

"Well, please."

Nanny Ma nodded and asked the palace maid to take Zhou to the place where she could be settled.

"Mammy, isn't Sister Shen coming with me?" Zhou asked puzzledly.

"She has other arrangements. You go first." Nanny Ma waved her hand.

"Yes!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou didn't dare to say anything more and left with the palace maid.

Nanny Ma led little Shen into a room.

The palace maid brought over several books.

Ma Ma took it and placed it in front of Xiao Shen, smiling and saying, "Take a look first, I'll explain it to you later."

"Do I need to study to become a concubine in the palace?"

Little Shen opened the top book with confusion, but what she saw were not words but pictures.

When she saw the contents clearly, she threw the book away. "Why are you showing me this?" Little Shen said with a red face.

"Haven't you seen it at home?" asked Ma Ma puzzled.

Participating in a talent show is no different from a woman getting married. Normally, the family would arrange someone to teach her in advance.

Xiao Shen's brother is at least a commander-in-chief and comes from a good family. Why does Xiao Shen act like she has never seen him before?

"Who reads this kind of thing!" Xiao Shen said angrily.

"It doesn't matter if you haven't seen it. It's not too late to watch it now. If you want to serve His Majesty, you must learn these. If you want to please His Majesty, you must learn them well." said Ma Ma.

"I don't want to read these despicable things!" Xiao Shen said angrily.

"This is the principle of human relations. How can it be despicable? Don't you want to learn how to serve His Majesty well?"

Ma Ma's face turned grim as she heard this: "Chuxiu Palace has its own rules. Are you treating it like you're still at home? No matter how prominent your family background is or how favored you are at home, once you enter the palace you must abide by the palace's rules. If His Majesty hadn't asked you to sleep with him tonight, you would have been punished!"

"What, you're going to sleep with me tonight?" Xiao Shen said in disbelief.

"Otherwise, would I teach you these myself?" Ma Ma said unhappily.

Xiao Shen's mind went blank. She had never thought of entering the palace, so how come she was chosen directly and was going to sleep with the emperor that night?

Nanny Ma didn't care about all this. She asked the palace maid to pick up the book and started teaching according to it.

…………

In the evening, Zhao Xing had dinner with Zhang Guifen and chatted for a while, then left Mingren Palace.

I wanted to go to Shulan, but Sanshui reminded me, "Your Majesty has asked a concubine to sleep with you in Chuxiu Palace tonight. Chuxiu Palace has already sent her to Fuyan Palace."

"I almost forgot." Zhao Xing patted his forehead and ordered, "Return to Fuyan Palace."

"Yes!"

Sanshui responded and gave the order.

After returning to the bedroom in a sedan chair, Zhao Xing ordered someone to bring Xiao Shen over, and then went to the bathroom to wash up.

When Zhao Xu finished washing and came out wearing his underwear, Xiao Shen was already waiting for him in the bedroom.

"Your Majesty, your servant...your servant pays homage to His Majesty!" Xiao Shen bowed.

Zhao Xing came to the bed and sat down, taking a look at Xiao Shen.

It is said that clothes make the man. At this time, after careful dressing up, little Shen changed into a pink palace skirt, which made her look more beautiful than before in Chuxiu Palace.

"No gift!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

After expressing her gratitude, Xiao Shen stood up with her head lowered.

After so much time had passed, she finally accepted the reality.

But my mind is still a little confused at this time.

"Come and sit."

Zhao Xing patted the bed beside him and said.

"Yes."

Little Shen responded and walked forward hesitantly. Just as she was about to sit down, Zhao Xing reached out and embraced her and she sat in his arms.

"ah…"

Little Shen let out a cry of surprise, but quickly reacted and calmed down.

Zhao Xing lifted Xiao Shen's chin, looked at her closely for a while, and said with a smile: "Are you afraid of me?"

"Concubine...Concubine..."

Xiao Shen closed her eyes, not knowing how to answer for a moment.

"Open your eyes." Zhao Xing said.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Shen could only open her eyes, but her look was a little evasive.

"Your parents died early, and it was your brother Shen Congxing who raised you. I heard that you and your sister have a very good relationship. Why did Shen Congxing let you participate in the selection?" Zhao Xing asked.

"It is the Shen family's honor to be able to serve His Majesty." said Little Shen.

Zhao Xing reached out and stroked Xiao Shen's face, smiling and saying, "I don't like people who don't tell the truth. If you don't tell the truth, I will banish you to the cold palace."
