Yingchun kept messing around Xu Yan, which made Xu Yan upset for a while. She looked at Yingchun's movements with some irritability, and muttered dissatisfied: "Yingchun, isn't it? Isn't it just to attend a flower viewing party?

, as for?"

Yingchun patted Xu Yan's shoulder lightly and said to Xu Yan: "Your Majesty is joking again, isn't it? How could your Majesty not know that today is not an ordinary flower-viewing banquet?" Xu Yan was choked by Yingchun, not knowing what to do.

How to answer.

The ordinary draft process is fixed and rigid. Xu Yan really doesn't want to sit there and watch those young men come up one by one to show her some music, chess, calligraphy and painting. Letting her sit there all afternoon is like killing her! Dear ministers

Xu Shi also thought of this, and fortunately, the flower-viewing banquet held after spring in the past was directly turned into an indirect talent show.

All the young princes who have emerged in the spring, some young princes from aristocratic families, and young and promising but unmarried ministers in the court all came to this "Hongmen Banquet" called flower viewing but actually a talent show. Not only Xu Yan, but also

Some ministers were also very melancholy.

Because of the unwritten rules of Xu State, the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics. Therefore, if you become the emperor's wife, you cannot join the cabinet. At most, you can only be a fourth-rank official. However, some ministers are satisfied with their fourth-rank official position.

Being an emperor's husband is good. But this is only a very small number. Most of the ministers are still indifferent to the idea of ​​becoming an emperor's husband. After the draft was announced, they openly and secretly sent Xu Yan a message: Don't choose them!

Xu Yan was also quite helpless about this matter. It wasn't that she wanted to choose them. Didn't they follow the group of ministers to coax her into the draft? Now that there are not enough people, naturally they have to be included! But since they all

Having already hinted to her about their unwillingness, Xu Yan would naturally not ask for trouble. She had already asked Yingchun to compile a list, and those few people would be secretly removed from the draft list.

But what makes Xu Yan very embarrassed is that Lu Huai has never sent any news to her! Since the incident six years ago, Lu Huai is just like before he was poisoned. He is the person who always smiles complimenting everyone he meets.

But Xu Yan could feel that something was different in his eyes.

Speaking of which, Lu Huai and Peng Yue are the two people who deserve to get married. After all, they are two years older than Xu Yan. Xu Yan doesn't know much about Peng Yue's fiancé who suddenly moved away with his family. He only knows that their family is doing business in the capital.

The official did a good job, but Xu Yan was suddenly given a discount to return to the field. Xu Yan didn't think much at the time and approved it directly. Unexpectedly, their whole family left. Her fiancé didn't even attend the Spring Festival that year.

.Peng Yue's marriage was naturally delayed because of this.

As for Lu Huai, she understands, probably because of Xu Luoyang. He is such an infatuated person! Well, if he doesn't hand over the coupon, then he won't hand it over. She won't choose him anyway.

Yingchun put the last pearl hairpin on Xu Yan and said to Xu Yan: "Okay, Your Majesty. Let's leave quickly." Xu Yan sighed helplessly, stood up and walked out of the door while holding Yingchun's hand.

go.

In the Imperial Garden, the young men from aristocratic families who had been prepared early stood in a row, waiting for Xu Yan to come over. Their eyes secretly glanced at Lu Huai, who was sitting leisurely drinking tea, and Wen Liang, the champion of this spring.

They can be regarded as the two most competitive players in this draft.

Needless to say, Wenliang is the legitimate son of the minister of the Ministry of Industry. He has been known as a genius since he was a child. There is nothing inappropriate in his treatment of people and things. He makes people feel as comfortable as a spring breeze, which is recognized by everyone.

The true representative of a noble family. Not to mention that he now has the blessing of being the number one scholar. Who can compete with him?

As for Lu Huai, although he was born in poverty and both his parents were dead, he had been ups and downs in the court for so many years, and he had already learned the skills of all-rounders. He always smiled at everyone, which was really annoying. Besides, he was with the empress.

Everyone saw the interaction in the court. They all believed that the reason why Lu Huai was so old and yet to get married was because he was waiting for the empress to grow up.

But no matter how you say it, it is impossible to choose only the emperor's wife to open up the harem this time. Even if you can choose any gentleman, it will be a big gain.

"Your Majesty has arrived——!" A loud communication sound resounded throughout the Imperial Garden, causing all the young masters to calm down and respectfully salute the source of the sound: "Join Your Majesty! May Your Majesty be blessed!"

Xu Yan held Yingchun's hand nervously. She was already a little uneasy and became even more overwhelmed when they suddenly heard two voices. She almost made a mistake. She quickly adjusted her steps and said with dignity in her voice: "

No need to be too polite, just be on your own."

"Yes." The respectful voice sounded again. Xu Yan was puzzled. Logically speaking, he should have become immune to this voice over the years. Now when he heard these people shouting like this, he felt that something was wrong.

Xu Yan is a bit crazy, and only people who are close to her know this. So when she saw the particularly conspicuous position in front of her, she silently cast her eyes towards Yingchun who was avoiding her eyes behind her. She sighed.

He breathed a sigh of relief, too. The fourth palace maid had been thinking about getting her married since she was twelve years old, but she didn't expect that it would take six years for her to get married.

Xu Yan didn't say anything. She held Yingchun's hand tightly and walked to her seat. She originally thought that one-on-one auditions would be the most embarrassing, but she didn't expect that the auditions with so many people together would be the most embarrassing!

One-to-one is just two people, you stare at me and I stare at you in silence, but one-to-many is just her looking at them. This large group of people is silent and has to bear the sight of people from all directions. Fortunately, everyone has preparations at hand.

Whenever they accidentally looked at each other, they would pick up the tea at hand to hide their embarrassment.

While drinking tea, Xu Yan thought in despair: Don't you have any talents to show off? You want me to ask! But I... seem to have drunk too much tea, and I really want to go to such a place.

What should I do with the toilet?

The more nervous Xu Yan gets, the more he likes to drink tea. The more he drinks tea, the more he wants to go to the hut. The more he wants to go to the hut, the more nervous he becomes... This has simply become an unbreakable cycle, which makes Xu Yan extremely anxious.

.

Finally, at the last moment when Xu Yan couldn't hold it in anymore, a handsome young man suddenly came out from the audience, bowed to Xu Yan and said: "Your Majesty, you are a gentleman but not a talented person. I am willing to contribute a song to your Majesty. But I still need this piano."

After some further debugging, Your Majesty, why not take a short rest first."

Xu Yan looked at him as if she had seen a savior! She didn't even have time to see what he looked like, and quickly agreed: "Okay, I'll go down alone to deal with some things, and you can debug it here first." After that,

Then he took Yingchun and left here in a hurry.

Along the way, Xu Yan rushed to the hut like a runaway horse. At first, Yingchun thought she didn't want to attend the flower-viewing party and was going to teach her a lesson. But looking at her now, she really didn't know.

What should I say? Yingchun shook her head and said from behind: "Your Majesty, don't be anxious, just watch the road!"

The moment Xu Yan came out of the hut, she felt like she had been reborn. She felt that she could bear it now even if she was asked to go back and watch their talent show one-on-one! Xu Yan breathed a sigh of relief, and when she came out to look for Yingchun, she found that

No sign of her was found.

Xu Yan looked around with some confusion, but unexpectedly heard a voice she had never expected:
Chapter completed!
