This noble lady Ying had a wheat-gold complexion and looked lively and healthy. On both sides of her forehead she had two horn-like buns that were much bigger than her face, a unique Mongolian accessory. The space between the buns was enough to fit two more of her faces in.

She had a golden mini horn on top of her head, with black fur underneath, surrounding her head. On both sides of the horn bun were several brass rectangular hollow ornaments inlaid with red and pink agate.

Two red ropes were hung crosswise on her head, extending from her forehead to both sides, with a huge brass lock at the end, inlaid with a large round red agate, and tassels hanging from the bottom, all the way to her chest.

This is Balin Meiruo, the darling of the Balin king, a Mongolian princess who grew up in Jiangnan. She was the concubine of the previous life.

Because the emperor was looking for a beauty from Jiangnan, and it just so happened that Balin Meiruo grew up in Jiangnan, was good-looking, and could be considered a Jiangnan beauty. She was also old enough, being fifteen years old this year, so King Balin immediately put his daughter into the palace.

This was a small butterfly effect, which caused Balin Meiruo to enter the palace two years earlier than she should have.

When Yan Wan got the list of people entering the palace this time and saw "Balin Meiruo" prominently listed on it, she was slightly surprised. This was the first major change since her rebirth. Concubine Ying appeared two years earlier.

I don’t know whether Concubine Ying’s personality will change. If it is different from her previous life, then maybe she has changed her heart.

Balin Meiruo, I hope you will remain as arrogant and domineering as ever, looking down on others, and attack me first with your vicious arrogance.

Otherwise, Yan Wan would really be shaken.

*Balin Meiruo looked around and felt that the Forbidden City was truly magnificent. She wanted to turn her head, but the ox-horn buns on both sides would hit her shoulders, so she could only tilt her head slightly and look around with her peripheral vision.

As soon as she opened her mouth, she spoke in a soft and beautiful voice, which was really full of Jiangnan style. "After traveling day and night, we finally arrived."

Balin Meiruo exclaimed, "This Forbidden City is so beautiful."

Her maid A Bao flattered her enthusiastically, "My dear, you will live in the Forbidden City from now on. It is up to you to live there no matter how beautiful it is."

Meiruo smiled shyly and lowered her head, which was enough to show her beauty. She was also a beautiful lady.

Jinbao came to meet her, and Yuhu also took her to her palace, which was Xianfu Palace, the same as in the previous life.

However, because she entered the palace two years earlier, she was not a concubine as in her previous life, but only a noble lady. Therefore, she did not live in the main hall of Xianfu Palace, but lived in a side hall.

As soon as she came in, she saw such a beautiful palace and so many servants. However, the only drawback was that she could only live in a side hall. Meiruo felt a little aggrieved, but she quickly adjusted herself and decided to get promoted in the future.

Because this lady was the first Mongolian concubine to marry into the Qing Dynasty, Yu Hu followed her throughout the whole process and took the opportunity to take a look at the quality of this noble lady Ying. If she had complaints about the emperor's arrangement right away, then there would be no need to pay any attention to her, just give her food and let her die in the Forbidden City.

"Master Ying, please allow us to change your makeup." Yu Hu said respectfully.

Meiruo said in surprise, "Change your makeup?"

"From now on you will be the master of the palace, not a Mongolian princess, so you have to change your decorations, otherwise you will not be able to serve the emperor." Yu Hu said.

Meiruo seemed to sigh, forced a smile, and then said brilliantly, "Then change it!"

She sat in front of the dressing table, looking at herself in the mirror. The hairdresser explained the Manchu rules and how to style her hair. Meiruo nodded, agreeing.

*The Emperor heard that the beauties from Jiangnan had arrived, so he went to take a look at the most distinguished one among them before the Lantern Festival family banquet.

The emperor walked to the gate of Xianfu Palace from afar and saw that the gate was wide open. Inside, Meiruo and Abao were playing in the snow, having snowball fights and making snowmen.

The laughter spread through the palace gate and reached the distant corridor.

The emperor stood at the door and took a look. Meiruo was so focused on playing in the snow that she didn't notice there was someone at the door. The servants were also having fun with their master in the snow and didn't notice it either.

The emperor took a quick look, then turned around quietly and walked in another direction.

The emperor frowned and asked in confusion, "Didn't the daughter of King Bahrain grow up in Jiangnan since she was a child? How come she is so... generous?"

The premises of the meeting between the two lives are different, and the evaluations given by the emperor are also very different.

Jinzhong tried hard to suppress his laughter and whispered, "Both of Lady Ying's parents were warriors on the grasslands. I think Lady Ying has inherited her father's heroic spirit."

The emperor sighed slightly, feeling very disappointed. He was looking forward to a unique and gentle woman who would recite poems for him in the soft Wu dialect.

How come she was from Jiangnan, but here came a woman from the Mongolian grassland?

This is totally different from what he wanted.

It was Meiruo's cleverness and liveliness that attracted the emperor in his previous life. In this life, she is still as lively, but only causes the emperor to feel slightly displeased.

He believed that the King of Bahrain ignored his request in order to get his daughter into the palace to win favor.

You know, this time the emperor only carefully selected two people, one of whom was Meiruo, and he had high expectations for her.

He wanted a beautiful woman, but what was given to him was a fierce horse from the grassland, which also took the place of the person he wanted.

It really made him angry.

The emperor took a deep breath. His only hope now was the remaining person.

*However, everything disappointed the emperor. In the evening, there was a Lantern Festival family dinner, and all the concubines were present. Among them was Zhao Da Ying, who was truly from Jiangnan and was currently living in Yonghe Palace.

However, Zhao Da Ying's appearance was not the most outstanding. Although she spoke in the soft Wu dialect tone that the emperor wanted, she was very timid. Just like the former Concubine Yu, she trembled when she saw him and said nothing, which really made him lose interest.

The emperor could only sigh, and then a look of depression appeared on his face. Why was it so difficult for him to find someone who satisfied him?

Oh, that's right.

A person suddenly popped up in the emperor's mind. What if he asked the woman from Jiangnan to teach Yanwan how to speak? Wouldn't she be gentle as water and have a unique charm?

The emperor almost chuckled in his heart. After many twists and turns, he finally found a suitable solution for him.

Concubine Ying was sitting in her seat and could only see the emperor's face from a distance. She could not see it clearly. She only saw a tuft of beard on his face, and he looked very old.

She couldn't hide the loss in her heart. She came to a strange place, lived in a side hall, and had to serve an old man.
