MTL - Blame The Villain For Being Too Beautiful-Chapter 216 The Emperor Villain (16)
It was only when Song Xuyi arrived at the selection venue that she realized that there were more people applying than she had imagined. Among all kinds of beauties who were fat, swallows, and thin, Song Xuyi's current appearance, which was more than cute but not beautiful, was not eye-catching at all.
And the person in charge of the selection is still Song Xuyi's old acquaintance - Fu Sheng, the high priest of Yinyue Sect.
Now the Yinyue Sect has become the national religion of Jiang Guo, Fu Sheng is in charge of the selection, and there are people like Jiang Guo who are almost under one person and over ten thousand people. No wonder there are rumors circulating that it is for Jiang Ruoyu to choose a concubine, which attracts people who come to sign up. flock to.
Fu Sheng casually sat at the back of the line. In front of him was also the nurse of Yinyue Sect who was in charge of the selection. The women lined up in a long line and only passed the selection by the nurse before they could enter the stage of selection by Fu Sheng.
This method of public selection mostly selects commoner women like the heroine Lin Zhu. Naturally, aristocratic daughters don't need to show their faces. Some family members have already handed over the portraits to Fu Sheng's case.
Song Xuyi pondered that all of this might be a game between Lin Zhu and her father, Prime Minister Lin. After all, Lin Zhu has now made a private appointment with the male lead Bai Bai for life. The portrait was cut first and then played and publicized so that everyone in the city knew that it completely cut off Lin Zhu's retreat and wanted Lin Zhu to enter the palace.
But these were just Song Xuyi's guesses.
But most commoner women did not pay as much attention to manners as noble ladies. The line was lined up, and the two women in front of Song Xuyi began to whisper.
"Sister Wang, do you think Your Majesty...does she really like women?" A woman in pink gently poked the waist of a woman in blue in front of her, and said softly with a blushing face: "Your Majesty, she is really beautiful! I want to be like His Majesty, I just want to earn the money to pray but...it must be a good mood to see such a beauty every day..."
Song Xuyi bent his lips unconsciously when he heard the words, but he didn't expect to meet an ancient top Yangou here. Even Song Xuyi sighed a little: Even though he was an appearance association, at least he would not intend to enter the palace just because of Jiang Ruoyu's beautiful face like this girl. Didn't she know that the more beautiful the thing, the more dangerous it is?
"You used to say that I'm the prettiest in the world." The woman in blue turned her head and snorted. Even though she tried her best to keep her tone calm, her eyes were still filled with sullen anger: "You have such a temperament that you can't change your mind. The place where people cannibalize in the palace will only cause trouble, it is best to focus on making money and not worry about other things, and come home with me after the prayer is over..."
"I'm not so useless!" The woman in pink made a grimace, put her arm around the woman in blue and began to act coquettishly: "I'm not afraid of others hurting me, I know that Sister Wang will protect me. Treat me best..."
"Don't be coquettish to me, this trick is useless!" The woman in blue raised her head high, with a sneer on her face, but her ears turned red quietly...
Song Xuyi looked at all this, and an aunt's smile unconsciously appeared on the corner of his lips: Sometimes the person involved is not clear, but outsiders can see it very clearly. These two people clearly have mutual affection but they haven't revealed it yet.
But then Song Xuyi immediately put away the smile on the corner of his mouth: She felt that she should correct her position! After all, I am from Jiang Ruoyu's side. Even though I don't know whether Jiang Ruoyu likes women is true or not, but...if these women are really concubines selected by the Yinyue Sect to pray for blessings, Jiang Ruoyu seems to be about to bring a It's a little green, I can't laugh out loud at this moment...
Song Xuyi's thoughts drifted carelessly, and it didn't take long for the two people in front of Song Xuyi to be in line.
The woman in blue is as cold and beautiful as a plum, and the woman in pink is charming and charming. The two have their own advantages and disadvantages. The nanny asked some questions casually and let them go to Fu Sheng's next level.
And it's Song Xuyi's turn. Compared with the previous two, Song Xuyi's immature face, which looks a little baby fat, is cute, but it looks a bit ordinary when you look closely. The mother looked at Song Xuyi With a glance, he lowered his head and asked a question perfunctorily.
"What's your name?"
"Liu, Liu Yi." Song Xuyi had told Jiang Ruoyu his name before, so naturally he didn't dare to reveal his real name at this time.
"What are the advantages?"
"...Medical skills." Song Xuyi thought about it carefully, only to realize that compared to the daughters of many dignitaries in this era who taught piano, chess, calligraphy and painting since childhood, he really didn't seem to have any attractive capital, but after a while, Song Xuyi secretly spat at himself: It must have been misleading by rumors! I came here to find Jiang Ruoyu, not to be Jiang Ruoyu's wife...
And Song Xuyi's answer obviously did not satisfy the nanny. The nanny frowned, obviously wanting to send Song Xuyi home. Song Xuyi was also ready to lose the election, but before the nanny could speak, a message came Warm voice—
"The one in front of Nanny Huang, yes, it's you, the girl in white, can you come over and talk to me?"
Song Xuyi raised his eyebrows, and it took a moment to realize that Fu Sheng was calling him, and stood in front of Fu Sheng.
Eight years have passed, Fu Sheng still looks personable, and he is clearly in power, but for some reason, Fu Sheng does not have the high-spirited posture that Song Xuyi imagined, and the whole person looks more tired.
"I just heard you say that you are good at medicine?" Fu Sheng looked at Song Xuyi with his usual smile in his eyes. After hearing Song Xuyi's affirmative reply, Fu Sheng pondered for a moment, then glanced at Song Xuyi: "You stay here first, if your medical skills really pass the test, I will find you a job in two days."
Song Xuyi's first reaction was to think that Fu Sheng had recognized him, but upon closer inspection, Fu Sheng's appearance was obviously not the same.
Song Xuyi thought about it, even though it would take some risks to approach Yinyue Sect, but he could also take the opportunity to learn some news that the outside world did not know. After thinking about it, Song Xuyi thanked him frankly, and did not refuse the opportunity offered to him.
After the selection was over, Song Xuyi and the girls selected by Fu Sheng went to the inn arranged by Yinyuejiao.
In the next few days, Song Xuyi will study etiquette with the other girls, and then enter the palace together in a few days.
Unexpectedly, Fu Sheng paid a lot of attention to Song Xuyi. In order to test whether Song Xuyi was really good at medicine, Fu Sheng found a sick woman from the nearby medical clinic. The prescription was approved by the old doctor in the clinic, and Fu Sheng smiled and let Song Xuyi go back to the room.
Song Xuyi obviously learned more about other girls' etiquette. Fu Sheng invited a famous storyteller to teach Song Xuyi storytelling, and a juggler to teach Song Xuyi some basic tricks, and even a hair comber. The woman taught Song Xuyi to comb her hair...
Song Xuyi was puzzled, but in line with the principle of not overwhelming himself with too many skills, Song Xuyi still learned what Fu Sheng asked to learn seriously.
And Fu Sheng's attitude clearly showed that Song Xuyi was not among the eighty-one girls selected for the palace. Perhaps it was because of the rumor that most of the selected girls were wary of each other, but in their opinion, there was no When Song Xuyi was threatening, most people looked extremely friendly.
Song Xuyi got along well with these girls in the next few days, and heard a lot of gossip, and since he entered the palace to pray for Jiang Ruoyu, the most talked about by these girls was naturally Jiang Ruoyu.
Some of the girls only thought about the lucrative reward promised by Yinyue Sect, while most of the rest of the girls believed in the rumor that they would fill Jiang Ruoyu's harem, all because of Jiang Ruoyu's status and appearance.
"Liu Yi, you don't know. On the day when the new emperor succeeded to the throne, he stood on the city wall and held a ceremony. He was so beautiful that he was not like a person in the world, like a fairy descending from the nine heavens. Many people were dazzled by it on that day. My young master broke his head and wanted to enter the palace, and even during the selection that day, there were men disguised as women in order to sneak into the selection team..."
Song Xuyi thought of the Jiang Ruoyu he had glimpsed that night before, and had to admit that Jiang Ruoyu had the capital to make people fall completely.
As if in an instant, that little Douding, who was only as tall as her own thigh, became the big beauty that now makes men and women crazy.
And listening to those girls' longing for Jiang Ruoyu, and thinking of how he cultivated Jiang Ruoyu all the way, Song Xuyi felt a very strange feeling in his heart: it seemed that he was an undercover mother mixed in with the candidate daughter-in-law. Looks good, that girl is virtuous, and the other is smart... Looking at one, I want to introduce the girl to Jiang Ruoyu after she is out of danger.
This is probably an annoyance that an emperor can't escape. Song Xuyi even had the urge to want Jiang Ruoyu to raise all the girls, and then he thought back then that he thought Jiang Ruoyu was still young, and he hadn't had time to instill in her the concept of love for a lifetime, maybe Jiang Ruoyu really became a big pig's trotter with a heart …
But in the process of Song Xuyi learning skills during the day and recovering his divine power at night, the time passed quickly, and the day to enter the palace soon came.
Song Xuyi didn't expect that Fu Sheng would introduce himself to Jiang Ruoyu's biological mother.
Because of the disputes in the past few years, the palace was quite empty. After ordering the rest of the congregation to bring the remaining people to the courtyard where the maid lived, Fu Sheng personally led Song Xuyi to the inside of the palace.
He walked up to the dorm of the Empress Dowager Dong Rou, obviously the high priest who covered the sky with one hand, but when facing the maids in front of the Empress Dowager, he was unusually polite—
"How is the Queen Mother these days?"
"Not bad."
"Then can you inform me?"
Fu Sheng waited outside the palace, with obvious apprehension in his eyes. The maid turned around and entered the hall, and walked out of the hall not long after, shaking her head at Fu Sheng with a troubled expression.
"High Priest, the Queen Mother still doesn't want to see you."
Fu Sheng's expression showed a bit of disappointment, but he seemed to be ready to be rejected, and he didn't bother anymore, and introduced Song Xuyi to the maid: "This child is good at medicine, and also learned storytelling tricks. When the disease breaks out, you can let this child accompany the Queen Mother..."
The maid thanked Fu Sheng politely, but after Fu Sheng left, she led Song Xuyi to the backyard, and did not come to see Song Xuyi for a few days after that.
Song Xuyi always felt that Fu Sheng's attitude towards Dong Rou was a bit strange, so he wanted to go to Jiang Ruoyu to see the situation. However, as a person who was paid tribute by Fu Sheng, Song Xuyi was the key monitoring object in the Empress Dowager's Palace. Stay in the backyard.
The accident happened a few days later.
Dong Rou stayed in the cold palace for so many years, even though she was later released because of Song Xuyi, but in those years in the cold palace, after all, the root cause of the disease: Dong Rou's health has been bad all these years, especially when the weather changes, her legs hurt I couldn't walk at all, and I saw a lot of doctors to no avail.
It was raining heavily that day, and there was a lot of noise in the front hall. Dong Rou's leg disease this time was violent, and it seemed to be more serious than before. Unexpectedly, Fu Sheng rushed into the queen mother's palace, and bluntly told the maids to call Song Xuyi to come over...
By the time Song Xuyi arrived at the door of Dong Rou's room, the heavy rain had stopped. Song Xuyi stopped at the door, but didn't know whether to push the door and go in—
There is a quarrel in the house.
As the name suggests, Dong Rou was originally an extremely gentle and tough woman, but at this moment, she yelled at Fu Sheng in the room: "Fu Sheng, get out of here! Do you think I don't know what kind of wolf ambition you have? Dong Guo has already No more! You still want to harm our mother and son!"
"Give me back my innocent and sensible daughter—"
Fu Sheng's voice also seemed to have faded from his usual calmness: "Rou'er, I really didn't know she was your daughter at the time... Yes, I had the idea of making her a God-attracting host, after all, she has Your royal blood, once she becomes emperor, it will represent the revival of our Dong country, but I haven't had time yet..."
"Believe me, everything is just a coincidence!"
…
Song Xuyi understood everything when he heard this:
In the plot summary of the original novel, Jiang Ruoyu has such powerful power. It is estimated that Fu Sheng found her in the end and let her inherit the power of Yinshen. In Fu Sheng's heart, Yinyuejiao is just a cover, what Fu Sheng really wanted to do all the time, In fact, it is the recovery of Dong Guo.
Fu Sheng has been eyeing Jiang Ruoyu for a long time, but he didn't expect that Jiang Ruoyu would go to Yaozhou in advance and let Yinshen get on him, breaking his plan...
"Have you heard enough?"
And while Song Xuyi was in a daze, a snort came from behind him. Song Xuyi was startled, subconsciously turned around, and saw Jiang Ruoyu standing on the roof.
Jiang Ruoyu was standing on the roof wearing a black dress, her figure almost merged with the darkness, but her face was the most brilliant pearl in the night, and the night did not damage her peerless youth in the slightest .
The corners of Jiang Ruoyu's lips curled up, as if smiling, but there was no smile in his eyes.
"Have you figured out how to die?"
Jiang Ruoyu spoke lightly, with a calm tone as if discussing today's weather: "Little eavesdropping mouse?"
The author has something to say:
Jiang Ruoyu: About my mother's old lover who sent my crush to my mother...
