Chapter 641 Draft
On this day, the empress was playing hide-and-seek with her favorite servant in the imperial garden when a minister asked to see her.
The empress impatiently drove the man out. Afterwards, another palace servant came to invite him back, saying that it was the empress dowager who wanted to see him.
Ever since the last time the father and daughter had a quarrel with the Queen Mother over the matter of Yao Guijun, they have been in a cold war.
Now that the Queen Mother suddenly came to her, the Empress couldn't figure out what she was trying to do.
But she couldn't not go. After all, the situation had been deadlocked for so many days. If it continued like this, who knows when those ministers would accuse her of being unfilial.
However, as soon as she arrived at the Cining Palace.
"what?"
"Draft?"
The empress looked stunned.
Why are you bringing up the talent show?
"Your Majesty, there are three unfilial acts: not having a queen is the worst. There are too few princes and princesses in the palace. The more royal heirs the better. As an emperor, you should visit the harem more often."
"I know you favor Yao Guijun, but the selection of concubines is an ancestral rule. Your Majesty should follow it and should not ignore it."
The Queen Mother brought up the ancestral rules and Ji Yao had no choice but to agree to the beauty contest. It wouldn't do her any harm anyway.
But you have to comfort your lord.
—
Upon hearing the news that the empress was going to hold a beauty contest, the various palaces in the harem had different reactions.
However, the owner of Yao Chi Palace, who was the most favored one in the harem, did not make any movement at this moment, which surprised and disappointed the gloating palace servants.
I thought that person would get angry, but I didn't expect him to be indifferent?
You have to know that Yao Guijun is not young anymore. When new people enter the palace, compared to the young and beautiful boys, can he still be as favored as he is now?
All the kings and servants thought that Lord Yaogui was just pretending to be strong, and who knows what he was crying behind his back.
And what is Yao Guijun doing at this moment?
Outside the palace, on the bustling street, the shouts of hawkers on both sides of the street were endless.
"Sir, are you worried about the case?"
"No."
Henchman A: "Why are you so worried these days, sir?"
His subordinate B rolled his eyes at him and said, "You are just talking nonsense. What else can you say? It's just Miss Bo..."
When it comes to being heartless, the two men have different reactions.
Subordinate B seems to look down on Miss Bo.
"Sir, in my opinion, you don't need to hide like this. I heard that Miss Bo is a womanizer. Maybe she is just in a momentary mood and will forget about you in a few days." The subordinate A disagreed: "I don't think so. Looking at Miss Bo's enthusiasm, I'm afraid our lord will not be able to get away this time."
B: "No, no, I don't think Miss Bo is suitable for our master."
A: "Why not? I think she is quite suitable. Who is Miss Bo? She is the daughter of the Grand Tutor. She has a good family background and good looks. She is a perfect match for our master."
B: "What are you talking about? No matter how good Miss Bo's family background and appearance are, I don't think she is a good match for you just because she is so romantic."
A: "So what if she's a playboy? Which woman doesn't have three husbands and four concubines?"
B: "Pah, who are you, sir? Can you compare with other men?"
"you……"
The two men each held an opinion and the argument continued.
Lu Hanyang frowned, his face sullen, "That's enough, making such a scene in the street, how disgraceful."
"grown ups……"
The two men stopped arguing instantly.
At this time, the crowd became noisy.
It seemed that some people were shouting: "Catch the thief!——"
"Get out of the way!"
“Get out of the way!——”
In the crowd, a thin woman was running away, knocking over a small stall from time to time. She got up awkwardly and continued to run away.
However, the moment the thief passed by Lu Hanyang, he was lifted up by the back of his neck.
Thief:"……"
Lu Hanyang threw the thief to his men behind him and said, "Send him to Jingzhao Prefecture."
"Yes, my lord!"
As soon as the two men left, a man appeared in front of Lu Hanyang.
"Sir, can you please return my things to me?"
In front of him was a young man with red lips and white teeth. He was very handsome, with a pair of clear and bright eyes staring straight at him, with a smile on his lips.
Lu Hanyang looked at the young man in front of him and felt that he looked familiar.
