Hearing Mu Yun’s question, Yuan Chuzhi waved his hand quickly: “No, I just want to ask first and then look for it. Heng Shuhua is still young, so I am not in a hurry, just because Yulan is anxious. When the time comes, she will find her a difficult family for her.”

Mu Yun was speechless, she chuckled and said, "Haha~ You think so much, you don't even think well, just think so far."

Yuan Chuzhi couldn't hear her mocking, and immediately murmured. After a while, Yuan Chuzhi was about to go back, and Mu Yun naturally sent her outside the gate.

Time flies, and the day of the talent show is approaching. This year's talent show, as the first general election after the national filial piety, has been a long-awaited thing for many people. This imperial edict in the palace has been busy signing up for their daughters to choose from, and on the other hand, they are busy buying clothes and faces for girls at home. The gold and silver shops and silk shops in various factories in the capital have been booming because of the talent show.

On that day, Yunfan came over with a smile. Mu Yun quipped when he saw this: "Look at my second cousin like this, I think I must have earned a lot of money this time."

Yun Fan replied, "Where are there... Thanks to the batch of fabrics and gems brought back from the south after hearing what his younger brother and sister said, the batch of fabrics and gems brought back from the south were not in a hurry. Now it happened to be the lively talent show, and the price was twice as high as the usual New Year's Day. Today I am here to give money to my younger brother and sister. We are not outsiders, so I just said it. I am thinking about opening a shop. I wonder if my younger brother and sister will take all the money back or leave part of it in the shop?"

Mu Yun chuckled and shook his head: "With my second cousin's current wealth, what kind of shop can't be opened? I won't get involved. I happened to ask if there is a very large farm in Qingzhou to sell, and I was about to save some money to buy land."

Upon hearing this, Yun Fan nodded: "That's the case, then we will settle the account this time, so that we can save some trouble if the days are getting longer."

Mu Yun thought so too. When Yunfan asked him first, he responded with the situation.

The two of them had a share of the accounts. Because of the draft, the last batch of jewelry and fabrics brought back from the south this time were quite profitable, and Mu Yun suddenly earned more than 100,000 taels of silver.

When many of the ladies who were running for the election were preparing for the draft, in early October, Wei Zhenzhen was taken to the palace by a sedan chair. The daughters of two other meritorious ministers who entered the palace with her were a little disappointed. However, when she thought that her daughter was even more advanced than the girls, she suddenly felt that the emperor's kindness was great. However, they had long known that they had been secretly jealous of many families, and were still proud of it here.

Needless to say, this idea was made by Shan Jingyan. In the words of our Empress, since she is a hero, she should be given some preferential treatment. There is no need to squeeze together with the girls to perform for the show. It is better to take advantage of the autumn scenery to enter the palace early, so as to add some good news to the palace before the New Year.

After learning the news, Mu Yun thought for a moment and knew Shan Jingyan’s intention. The ladies who entered the palace early, their fathers were all military generals, and these military generals were the families the emperor wanted to win over. However, after they were all heroes, it was difficult to ensure that the emperor could enjoy the rain and dew evenly after entering the palace together.

At that time, whether it is favored or not, it will be difficult for her family to tie up again. Invisibly, half of the emperor's chance to win over the hearts of the people. After thinking about it, Mu Yun had to admire Shan Jingyan's tricks in his heart. Then he thought that every day she opened her eyes, she would live in various conspiracies and the emperor's plots of concubines in the harem, and deeply felt that it was not worth it. Shan Jingyan was such a bright and smart woman, which was originally worthy of being treated better.

It's a good thing when I am a prince now, but unfortunately, I became suspicious and even impatient after sitting in the high position.

Things were indeed the same as Mu Yun expected. Wei Zhenzhen and the other three entered the palace together, and they were first named the fifth-rank talent. As a result, within a month, Wei Zhenzhen became a fourth-rank beauty because she was very favored. I heard that the emperor praised her gentleness and quietness, so he specially gave her the title "Xian".

Originally, these things had little to do with Mu Yun, but she wanted to go to Yinlou to see the jewelry she recently looked at. It was not as exquisite and beautiful as it was, so she saved it for her daughter. Unfortunately, it was not suitable to go out today, so Mu Yun happened to meet Wei Long, whom she hates most in Yinlou.

Wei Long is really incomparable to the same words as a while ago. Looking at her jewel-like spirit and looking like a nouveau riche, she smiled when she saw Mu Yun, "I didn't expect to meet Mrs. Wen here. Is this going to make jewelry?"

Mu Yunsui didn't like her, but she wouldn't leave any talk to others, so she smiled and replied, "Let's see if there is any new head or face. I haven't seen Long Gongren for a long time. I haven't congratulated you on your family's promotion to the fourth-rank beauty. It's really as the priest said."

Wei Long did not know if he was pretending to be deaf and dumb, or did not hear the sarcasm in Mu Yun's words, and he squinted his eyes and smiled, "Oh, Mrs. Wen has been too much. The emperor just likes my empress's gentleness and quietness. Didn't he even give her a special title? My empress is the most pure and filial person. She has not forgotten that we are parents in a wealthy nest. Didn't she just give me a box of pearls to wear. Although there are pearls at home, it is at least something given from the palace. How decent isn't it?"

Then she said to the clerk in the silver building: "This is something rewarded from the palace. Tell your boss that you have to be careful. If you bump it, you can't afford to compensate!" The clerk took the box and agreed timidly.

Wei Long turned his head and said to Mu Yun: "It's a pity that Mrs. Wen's daughter is too young now to catch up with this talent show. Otherwise, with your daughter's appearance, she would have been so grateful to the emperor when she entered the palace. What a pity..."

The maids next to Mu Yun all watched Xiao Pumpkin grow up. Long's words were really unpleasant. Several maids were so angry that they were so angry that they just got in the way of the master without giving instructions, so they had to suppress their anger. Mu Yun replied calmly: "I am worried about it if I have time. Our family has no intention of sending my daughter to the palace to gain wealth."

As he spoke, Mu Yun looked at Wei Long's clothes and said calmly: "Since our two families have a good relationship in the past, I would like to advise you to be careful when speaking. According to the rules, only concubines with the second rank or above in the harem can be called Empress, and the rest can only be called "little masters". For example, the five phoenix hairpins on your head can only be worn by the third rank or above in the third rank or above in the rank. With our family's previous friendship, it is okay to see it, but if the censor knows, you must participate in your "over-order". At that time, even the beautiful Xian will be blind. Although the beautiful Xian is favored to shine the Wei family, the beautiful Gong should also cherish the beautiful concubine. It is not easy for her to survive in the palace, so the family should not drag her back. I have something to do, so I will say goodbye first."

After saying that, Wei Long's slight face, regardless of the client's retention, walked out of the Yin Building with his servants. After getting on the carriage, several maids smiled and said with a smile: "Our wife is more quick to react, and she choked Long Gongren so hard that she couldn't speak in a few words. It's just that a beauty in the family dares to be so arrogant. The Empress's family, Cheng Guogong's mansion, is not as arrogant as her, and Jirai has never had such a face."

Mu Yun smiled faintly: "What you said, how can the foundation of a century-old family be compared to a military family like an explosive family?"

Jinxin made a gesture and slapped himself in the mouth: "Yes, the lady is right, I really shouldn't have it. How can the small family members of their family be compared with the Duke Cheng's Mansion?"

I don't know if someone did it on purpose. A censor actually reported that the family of the mighty general Wei Shan's family, Yuepin, was wearing headwear for the sake of over-the-stop. Although the emperor only scolded Wei Shan for a few words and fined him three months' salary, he was still a little cold to Wei Zhenzhen and favored the others. In addition, there were too many things at the end of the year, and the originally popular beauty Xian suddenly had a sign of falling out of favor.

This matter naturally cannot escape the eyes of the harem leader Shan Jingyan. She curled her lips slightly: "This new man is about to fall out of favor before he enters the palace. This is not a good thing. It is rare that the emperor likes it so much. If you ask someone to give him a tip of Wei, you have to hold on until the new girl enters the palace."

Chunxiao didn't understand very well: "I don't understand what the Sirian is meant to? Why do you want to help her?"

Shan Jingyan sneered: "There is no way, it's just that the other few are too useless. Among the three newly entered the palace, only Wei's family is still a little interesting. As soon as our Majesty ascended the throne, a 'two beauties in the capital' appeared. Both of them have great ambitions. Since they are so ambitious, how can they not suffer any hardship? This palace will make some trouble for them, which can be considered as fulfilling them."

The so-called "two beauties in the capital" refers to the daughter of the new Minister of Revenue, Lord Qian and the daughter of the Dean County Lord. Compared to Wei, these two women with obviously greater ambitions made Chunxiao even more disliked. She naturally made the two of them happy, but she was afraid that something would go wrong and would benefit the Wei fisherman. If this was true, it would be unbeautiful!

Therefore, Chunxiao was still a little hesitant: "If Wei really becomes bigger, wouldn't that be..."

Shan Jingyan focused on her mind: "Do you think she has this brain with her background and knowledge? But if she can really last forever, that's her ability. You don't have to be upset. Although this kind of thing was rare in the royal palace before, we have heard of it. Although that person is not beautiful, who knows how he is now!"

Seeing that Shan Jingyan didn't take this matter to heart, Chunxiao sighed in her heart, not knowing whether she should be happy for her master or sad for her master. She calmed down. No matter what, the master's words were imperial edicts, and she just followed them well. After all, she was the master's person and had no choice but to pity others.
