Soon, the concubines were brought over. The emperor looked at the row of concubines and frowned, "Have these all been selected?"

When Lin Xiang heard this, she nodded and said, "Yes, I have already selected them all.

Next, the emperor needs to find someone he likes."

When the emperor heard this, a trace of displeasure flashed in his eyes, but he said nothing more, just said coldly: "Bring the person in."

When the eunuch beside him heard this, he began to call people in. The procedure was to start with the daughters of ministers, then the daughters of minor officials, and then the women of common people.

At first, the emperor did not take a close look at the people reported by the eunuch and took them all into the harem. It was only when he came to the daughter of the young official that he took a good look at her face.

After making my selection, I thought it was over, but unexpectedly, there were still quite a few people at the door.

When the emperor saw this, he was displeased and asked, "Are you done yet? Why are there still so many people?"

Seeing this, the eunuch beside him bowed and said, "Your Majesty, there are also beautiful girls sent by the people."

When the emperor heard this, his face was full of disgust. Just as he was about to refuse, he heard Lin Xiang say, "Your Majesty, there are more than ten people. Please take a look at them all."

After Lin Xiang finished speaking, the emperor looked at her fiercely and said in a cold voice, "Does the queen really want me to choose a concubine?"

When Lin Xiang heard this, she looked at the emperor calmly and said, "I am definitely happy to have my sister help take care of Your Majesty."

As soon as these words came out, the emperor ordered in a cold voice: "Announce."

After saying that, he sat down, and the smile on his face disappeared no more.

At this time, the concubine slowly walked in. The emperor saw that the color of her clothes was a little too plain, so he asked, "Why, are you trying to curse me?"

When Xiu Nu heard this, she quickly knelt down and asked for permission, "Your Majesty, please forgive me, Your Majesty, please forgive me."

Seeing the courage of the woman in front of him, the emperor said coldly: "Take her away, beat her with a stick twenty times, and throw her out of the palace."

When Xiu Nu heard this, she quickly said, "Your Majesty, please calm down. Your Majesty, please calm down."

At this moment, the concubine's face was revealed, and the emperor and Mr. Meng were both shocked.

Emperor: What clear eyes you have.

Mr. Meng: It’s actually her?

The concubine knelt on the ground, looking pitiful, her body trembling slightly.

Mr. Meng stood aside, glanced at the emperor, then lowered his eyes to look at the ground, no one knew what he was thinking.

The emperor saw that she was crying pitifully and was about to order her to be canonized as a concubine. He accidentally saw the queen's mocking smile and said coldly: "Drag her away."

Before the concubine could react, her mouth was covered and she was taken away.

When Mr. Meng saw this scene, a trace of pity flashed in his eyes, but when he thought of his current situation, he hid the emotion in his eyes.

After the emperor made his choice, Mr. Meng left the palace. When he arrived outside the palace, he saw the woman who was thrown at the palace gate.

When he saw the woman's clothes clearly, he said coldly, "Stop the car."

The groom stopped and asked suspiciously, "Master?"

"Go down and ask what happened."

When the coachman heard the noise, he got up and went over to the common people. After asking them what had happened, he turned around and left.

"Master, the people around here said that the girl was abandoned by her parents after she failed the selection."

When Mr. Meng heard this, a trace of anger flashed in his eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "Bring her up."

After hearing this, the groom was stunned for a moment, then asked suspiciously, "Master, are you taking her back to the mansion?"

A "hmm" sound was heard from the carriage. After hearing it, the coachman turned around and asked the people to take the beautiful girl into the carriage.

The coachman probably guessed that the woman must have a different attitude towards her master, so he didn't dare to pick her up. He paid some silver and called two women to carry her to the carriage.

When the curtain was drawn, the woman saw the man sitting inside, and she quickly lowered her head. After carefully putting the woman down, she hurried downstairs.

Seeing that everything was ready, the coachman drove the carriage back.

Mr. Meng looked at the blood on the woman's body, and a barely perceptible trace of pity flashed in his eyes.

Looking at that somewhat familiar face, Mr. Meng fell into his own memories.

When he came back to his senses, the coachman's voice came from outside the carriage.

When he knew they had arrived at the mansion, Mr. Meng looked at the woman lying beside him and ordered, "Find a nanny."

"Yes."

Hearing this, he pondered for a while, then stopped the groom again, "Forget it, no need."

When the coachman heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then he saw the curtain of the carriage move.

He hurried forward and pulled up the curtain, and saw that his master was actually carrying the woman down with his own hands.

This scene not only scared the groom, but also the soldiers guarding the door.

These soldiers have followed him for some time, and this is the first time they have seen him treat a woman like this.

Mr. Meng walked straight in. When the housekeeper got the news and was about to ask, he heard him say, "Call the palace doctor."

After saying that, he was seen carrying the woman to his yard.

Upon seeing this, the housekeeper was shocked for several seconds, then hurried to find the court doctor.

After Mr. Meng put the woman on the bed, he looked at the people behind him and said, "Find a few women to help treat the wound first."

The servant who followed behind saw the blood on the woman's body, nodded, and left quickly.

When the woman arrived, the court doctor also arrived. Seeing this, Mr. Meng said, "See the doctor first, and then clean up."

Upon hearing this, the court doctor hurried forward to help take the pulse. After a while, he came out and looked at Mr. Meng, saying respectfully: "Master, this woman's injuries are all superficial. She will be healed after applying medicine for two days."

When Mr. Meng heard this, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly and he said, "Okay."

The court doctor took a bottle of medicine from the medicine box, handed it to the woman, and said, "This is for rubbing. After cleaning the wound, just sprinkle it on."

After taking the medicine, the woman went into the inner room and began to help the woman clean.

When they saw the wound, they were all shocked and whispered, "This wound is too serious."

As soon as the words fell, one of the women said coldly: "Shut up."

After these words were spoken, no one else dared to say anything and they all lowered their heads to clean the blood off the woman's body.

After cleaning her and applying medicine on her wounds, he went to the outer room and saw Mr. Meng still waiting. After a moment of hesitation, he bowed and said, "Master, I'm all right now."

"Go down."

After Mr. Meng finished speaking, he hurried into the inner room. When he saw the unconscious person lying on the bed, he quickly stepped forward and took his pulse.

After noticing that her pulse had stabilized, he took a breath and sat down beside the bed.

Looking at the woman's appearance, Mr. Meng felt very complicated. This person looked too much like his deceased wife.
