Absolutely! My maid was reborn after time travel

Chapter 153: Selection of Partial Halls of Zening Hall

Shen Qinglan saw that the whole family was thinking about her so much, and she didn't know how to answer for a while.

Shen Qingshi looked at her seriously and asked, "Sisi, tell me."

"Uh... elders, don't worry, Sisi has a way! This is what I think. Since Her Royal Highness the Queen has sent someone to convey the decree, we cannot refuse the draft. If I am selected to be my concubine, I will pretend to be ill and return to Luo

Recuperate and come back in a few years." Shen Qinglan said.

"Sisi, this is King Bin's talent show. If he is really chosen to be his concubine, King Bin will definitely send an imperial physician to diagnose and treat her. What will happen if she is found out?" Shen Qingshi said.

"When the time comes, we can just hire more imperial doctors. King Bin is a romantic person and has seen many beauties. He won't care about having one less concubine." The uncle said.

"But……"

Shen Qingshi wanted to say something more, but Shen Qinglan quickly interrupted him, "Uncle is right. I don't think King Bin will care about a concubine. By then I, Luoping, will live in Luoping for two years and there will be no worries.

"

Shen Qingshi chuckled secretly. It seemed that Sisi was still willing to marry Zhao Shun, and she was very sure of it.

Her Royal Highness the Queen's sudden edict must have been something he was working on.

"It seems that this is all we can do, Sisi, tomorrow the palace will send a nanny to teach you the rules. Remember to be more respectful. Nanny can speak well in the palace. If you really do something inappropriate then, I think you will be punished.

Auntie can also help with a few words. Furthermore, if you are really chosen to be a concubine in the future, it will be easier to escape with this nanny around." Grandma said.

"Yes, Sisi understands."

-

Five days later, Shen Qinglan was called into the palace.

Although the Ouchi palace is majestic, it always feels cold.

Zhao Shun's talent show was held in the side hall of Zening Palace, and Zhao Shun and Her Royal Highness the Queen took the test for each show girl.

Shen Qinglan chose a milky-white skirt, paired with a light pink jacket, a pair of milky-white embroidered shoes, a white hosta dotted between her dark and smooth bun, and a pair of pearl earrings.

, holding a round fan embroidered with orchids in his hand, without too much decoration, it looked elegant and generous.

Yan'er stayed at the side door of Zening Palace while Shen Qinglan went alone. On the way, she met two women from aristocratic families who came to participate in the draft like her.

"This young lady... I'm sorry for Xiang'er's blindness. I wonder which official family she is from?" asked the young lady in blue brocade.

Shen Qinglan stopped and heard her introduce herself again: "I am the daughter of Chu Mu, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, and my name is Xiang."

Next to Chu Xiang stood a young lady wearing a green brocade dress. She looked about the same age as Shen Qinglan. She also saluted and said, "I have seen this sister before. I am the daughter of Yang Zhengjin, a foreign minister from the Ministry of Industry.

The name is Xiaoxiao.”

Shen Qinglan each returned the gift and said: "I have met the two ladies. I am the legitimate daughter of the Shen family of the imperial merchant, and my name is Qinglan."

"Huangshang?" Yang Xiaoxiao was surprised, "Are you also here to participate in His Highness King Bin's draft?"

"Exactly." Shen Qinglan replied respectfully.

"Can a royal merchant also be a princess?" Yang Xiaoxiao looked at Chu Xiang.

"Not necessarily, or are you here to choose a concubine?" Chu Xiang picked up the handkerchief and chuckled. Fortunately, she was so respectful just now. She didn't expect that she was just a merchant.

"The draft is about to begin, I'll take my leave now."

Just as Shen Qinglan was about to leave, Chu Xiang stopped her: "From the Shen family, what if you participated in the draft? In such a hurry, it's just to fill up the number. Do you know that His Royal Highness King Bin is the current His Majesty's

My nephew can become the king of the county without relying on the title. He is a noble person in the sky, and you can't reach it."

Yang Xiaoxiao moved closer to Chu Xiang and said, "Sister Chu, we'd better go there first, otherwise it won't be good if we waste time."

Shen Qinglan ignored her and walked straight towards the side hall. Chu Xiang stepped forward reluctantly and grabbed her arm.

"Hey, do you, a merchant girl, know the rules? How dare you walk in front of us?"

Shen Qinglan glanced at her and raised her lips, "What? You are ugly and you still want to walk in front? Aren't you afraid of being embarrassed?"

Chu Xiang suddenly became furious, "What did you say? Do you think you can be a princess with your looks? How dare you call me ugly?"

"What's wrong with calling you ugly? You don't accept it? This Miss Yang next to you is much prettier than you. There are more than a dozen women participating in the talent show today, and you should be the ugliest." Shen Qinglan said.

If this place hadn't been Da Nei, Chu Xiang would have wanted to give her two slaps immediately. She gritted her teeth and looked at Shen Qinglan, and said angrily: "So what if you are beautiful? You only marry virtuous wives, and only concubines marry women. You are nothing more than a slave."

Xiaoxiao, let’s go!”

Chu Xiang took Yang Xiaoxiao's hand and walked forward. Shen Qinglan stopped talking to her. In this kind of quarrel, whoever gets angry loses. She insisted on not paying attention to these words and was mad at this guy.

The first item in the draft was tea making. Shen Qinglan had just learned it for a few days and was not very good at it.

Chu Xiang glanced at the tea she was sitting on and said mockingly: "You're so bad at tea foam. It seems like you don't make tea often at home."

The beautiful lady next to her also took a look and said with a smile: "How can people like them understand this?"

After Chu Xiang's publicity, all the girls waiting for the draft now know her identity.

When the time came, the ladies stood up one after another, and the queen ordered the servants to bring the prepared tea one by one for her and Zhao Shun to taste.

After the chamberlain took away the cup of tea made by Shen Qinglan, it was delivered to Zhao Shun, while another chamberlain delivered the tea made by Chu Xiang to the queen's hand.

All the ladies were waiting to see the joke. Zhao Shun took the tea and took a sip first. Then he drank the tea in the tea bowl one sip after another and praised: "This tea is particularly fragrant, and it is very popular with me.

I wonder which show girl did it?"

"My young prince, I am the Lord of Pingyang Township." The chamberlain replied.

"Is this the Lord of Pingyang? I have never seen this Lord of Pingyang before," the Queen said.

Shen Qinglan stood up and saluted: "The Lord of the Township, Shen Qinglan, has met Her Royal Highness the Queen and His Royal Highness King Bin."

"You don't have to be polite, Lord. Just be on your own."

After the queen said this, she looked at Shen Qinglan and said with a smile: "I have heard that Lord Pingyang is kind and intelligent, and today I finally get to see him."

"Thank you, Her Majesty the Queen, for the compliment. I am so ashamed of myself."

The queen turned to look at Zhao Shun with a smile, and then the chamberlain continued to serve tea.

-

After competing in tea ordering, flower arranging, and incense burning, the show girls finally had time to rest.

As soon as Shen Qinglan sat down and wanted to take a sip of tea, Chu Xiang and a beautiful girl in white came over vigorously.

"Miss Chu, do you have help?" Shen Qinglan chuckled and asked the woman in white: "Who are you?"

"This lady is Cui Ru, the grandson of Cui Heyong, the Minister of Rites."

Shen Qinglan looked her over and asked, "Is the granddaughter of the Minister of Finance also so ugly?"

"You! Kuangni! Why don't you get up and salute when you see me?" Cui Ru said.
