Neither Yun Shang nor Song Zishu could figure out what the queen was thinking, so they silently followed the palace maid into the palace. After a while, they arrived at the back garden.When they arrived, many people had already arrived, including many familiar faces.

"Sister Ya is here too, come and sit down."

"Sister Ning, sister Rou."

"I heard that the princess went to Luoshuang City to watch the martial arts competition. Can you tell us about it? Is the Jianghu Knight really the same as what is written in the script?"

"Let Sister Rou talk about it. Sister Rou likes her very much."

"If you ask me, what I have to mention in this martial arts competition is Dadaomen. My master -"

When Li Jingrou was talking about getting excited, she caught a glimpse of Yun Shang from the corner of her eye, and her brows suddenly wrinkled.She always felt that even if she was worse than Yun Shang, it was just a little bit, but this martial arts competition made her aware of the gap between the two.

Yun Shang could easily win five games in a row, but she didn't win even one.

I have to admit that she is not as powerful as Yun Shang.

Even so, it could not erase the fact that Yun Shang had beaten her and refused to admit it.

When Li Jingrou stopped like this, other people in the garden followed and looked over. When they saw Yun Shang and Song Zishu, their faces were all guarded.Before they entered the palace, their family members analyzed it with them and guessed that this time it was probably to choose concubines for the princes.

Yunshang is in the limelight, with both talent and appearance.Song Zishu was gentle and virtuous, and the Song family was highly valued by Emperor Chu Wen. The competition between the two was too great.

When those people looked at Yun Shang and Song Zishu with hostility, Yun Shang was also observing the people opposite.

Chu Xinya has the highest status among them. She is the legitimate daughter of Prince Annan's palace, so she is expected to be the leader.In addition to her, Zhuang Wanning was also there. The two of them sat very closely together, probably helping to select the prince's concubine.

Although Chu Xinya is the princess, she has always kept a low profile. She knows that she is not the protagonist today and does not want to stand out.

Zhuang Wan Ning is the complete opposite. She is wearing a water pink silk satin blouse with pipa sleeves, covered with a white printed gauze shawl. The floor-length skirt is embroidered with large begonia flowers, which makes her charming and charming.

She seems to particularly like the color pink. Yun Shang always wears pink dresses every time she sees her.

Zhuang Wan Ning had been accused of being married to the prince, but she was dressed extremely exquisitely. Those who didn't know it thought she wanted to outshine the other girls.

Except for Chu Xinya and Zhuang Wanning, the others are also of high status.

Li Jingrou from the Duke's residence, Pei Jingting and Gu Ying from the Changping uncle's residence were all there, and even Ding Xirong from the Minister of Industry's office was also there.

These people were all dressed up and dressed up, obviously they came well prepared.

"Meet the princess."

Yun Shang and Song Zishu walked up to Chu Xinya and bowed. She was a first-grade princess, the highest level.When we were in Luoshuang City, everyone hid their identities and didn't greet each other, but it was different in the palace.

"Miss Yun, Miss Song, you are here too."

Gu Ying looked at Yun Shang with soft eyes. Luo Shuangcheng's conversation made the two people closer.

"Girl Gu."

Seeing Gu Ying's calm expression, she thought she had figured it out.

Others looked curiously between Yun Shang and Gu Ying. You must know that there is a gap between Yun Shang and Gu Qi, but Gu Ying seems to have a good relationship with Yun Shang. How can it not be surprising?

After Yun Shang and Song Zishu sat down, they chatted quietly with acquaintances. After a while, several more girls came. Counting the front and back, there were a total of 20 people.

Excluding Zhuang Wanning and Chu Xinya, there are still 18 people left.

There are five princes in total, who will be chosen?

After sitting for a while, the queen came with several concubines.

The queen walked in the front, with a smile on her lips and a dignified air.What hasn't changed is that the face is still covered with thick makeup.

But her smile was directed at Zhuang Wanning. When she caught a glimpse of Yun Shang, her eyes turned cold.

Concubine Lan is following the Queen. She is the biological mother of the eldest prince. Now she has the highest rank in the palace besides the Queen.

Normally, there should be two concubines in the palace. After Concubine Yi passed away, the seat became vacant. Emperor Chu Wen never mentioned it, and no one else dared to fight for it.

Concubine Lan has a noble status, but her dress is much worse than that of the queen, and she is even far inferior to the concubines behind her.

Since the eldest prince's legs were disabled, Concubine Lan had been greatly affected. From now on, if it were not for her status, she would have become a monk.

She ignored the worldly affairs in the palace and did not show up even if there were any activities. If she had not selected a concubine for the eldest prince today, she would not have appeared in front of others.

Following the two people were Concubine Yi and Concubine Mei.

Concubine Yi is the biological mother of the second prince Chu Zhi. Although her appearance is not gorgeous, her eyes are extremely beautiful.It was because of these eyes that resembled Concubine Yi that she won the favor of Emperor Wen of Chu, and she became a concubine from a palace maid.

She is somewhat similar to Concubine Lan. She is very low-key in the harem and does not fight for it.

Concubine Mei is the mother-in-law of the fifth prince. She is the youngest, and she is beautifully dressed. Now that she is over thirty years old, she still looks charming.

The one walking at the back was the concubine. Among the princes, only the biological mother of the fourth prince was not a concubine.

Roubi looks as gentle as water. She was born in Jiangnan and has the elegance of a Jiangnan woman. When she smiles, you can see two dimples, which is very cute.However, Emperor Wen of Chu didn't like her, so she was still a concubine, not a concubine.

Several empresses arrived, everyone stood up to greet them, and then sat down in an orderly manner.

They knew what today meant. Some were nervous, some were shy, and some had glaring eyes waiting to show off and leave a good impression.

As soon as she sat down, Concubine Mei smiled and said, "Miss Zhuang San is really pretty and charming. No wonder she is loved by my sister."

Among the concubines, Mei Fei has the liveliest personality and likes to please Zhuang Yaxian on weekdays.

When someone praised Zhuang Wan Ning, the queen showed a satisfied smile and invited Zhuang Wan Ning to sit next to her.Zhuang Wan Ning stood up and thanked Concubine Mei, then sat down next to the Queen Luoluo.

Everyone looked at it and saw that the two of them were not like mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, but more like mother and daughter.

Considering that both of them are from the Zhuang family, and the queen is Zhuang Wanning's aunt, it is normal for them to have a good relationship.

The main purpose of today is to choose concubines for the princes. Everyone wants to choose a good wife for their son. In addition to character, they also need to look at the power behind her.The fifth prince is the youngest, but Concubine Mei is the most interested. She is interested in Li Jingrou, who is from Duke Li's house, and Pei Jingting, who is from Chang Ping's house.

She held the two of them and talked for a long time, and several other concubines also chatted with those who were interested.

Concubine Yi took her fancy to Gu Ying. Gu Ying's character and talent were both first-rate and she was a perfect match for the second prince.

When Concubine Yi took Gu Ying to talk, Yun Shang found that the queen had been staring at Concubine Yi, and glanced at Song Zishu vaguely.

It seems that letting Song Zishu enter the palace today was somewhat of a test.
