Wearing a book, hooking him up

Early the next morning, after court session, Jun Zechen was called to the Tihe Hall by the palace maid beside the queen.

There was no such thing as a talent show in the previous life, but in this life Jun Zechen himself didn't care about it, and with Ling Yue's help, the Queen was even more happy to hear about it, so the talent show was naturally organized.

Jun Zechen and the Queen sat side by side in the first seat, gazing at the rows of beautiful ladies standing neatly below.

"Does the prince like anyone? This time, I have carefully arranged a general election for you. Many noble ladies from other cities have also come, so you can choose more."

"You are already a young man, but you still don't have any children. Even though the ministers in the court don't say anything, they still have opinions about you."

The queen tilted her head slightly and spoke earnestly.

"Mother, I know."

Jun Zechen nodded slightly, his expression calm, and he was not prepared to refute his mother.

Anyway, there will be a selection after he ascends the throne, it doesn’t matter whether it’s early or late.

Looking at the first group of beauties coming in, Ye Yaqin, the daughter of the Ye family, walked gracefully in the front.

Jun Zechen's gaze stayed on her for a moment, remembering that in his previous life, she had given birth to a son for him, but in the end, the Ye family was too ambitious and was eventually wiped out by him.

Now the control of the Ye family's military forces in various states can almost rival the military power in his hands. Since the draft has been decided, the daughter of the Ye family naturally cannot be left out.

Even if he didn't choose, the Queen Mother would definitely leave her name.

"Mother, please let the Ye family girl stay."

Jun Zechen's voice was as calm as water, without any emotion at all.

When the queen heard this, a satisfied smile appeared on her face.

If the prince does not choose, does that mean the daughter of the Ye family will be married to another prince?

Prince Duan and Concubine Shu are not the kind of people who would settle down.

The Ye family holds military power, so the eldest daughter of the Ye family cannot marry Prince Duan.

Among the second batch of beauties who came in was An Jinyan. When Jun Zechen saw her, there was no ripple in his eyes. This woman had been favored for a long time in her previous life, but she was a person who was used to pretending. Later, her various calculations after entering the palace were exposed by other concubines, and she was eventually demoted to the cold palace.

He decided not to enter the palace in this life. He didn't want to repeat some annoying things whose endings he already knew.

Jun Zechen shook his head gently, his movements subtle but firm.

When these beauties saw the prince shaking his head, none of them were left behind.

An Jinyan slowly retreated with a look of astonishment on her face. She had never expected that after all her careful preparations, she would end up like this!

The third group of beauties walked into the hall.

Jun Zechen's eyes swept through the group of beautiful girls, and when he saw Yan Xiaofei, his thoughts drifted back to his previous life.

It seemed that he thought she was a great pipa player, so he favored her several times. Later, she gave birth to a prince, and her son eventually won in the battle for the throne.

Then stay.

Having been an emperor for decades in his previous life, Jun Zechen was conscientious and had made outstanding achievements. He was a person who was extremely strict with himself, ruthless to others, and even more merciless to himself.

If he could complete the number of seven sons as his father had mentioned in advance in this life and train the next suitable heir as soon as possible, Jun Zechen would be able to leave more time for himself.

His gaze slowly shifted to Chu Yinxue. This woman had an eye-catching face, but if she was slightly favored in the harem, she would become arrogant and her domineering nature would be fully revealed even when she was at home.

In his previous life, Jun Zechen used her to balance Ye Yaqin. After all, the two of them were incompatible before entering the palace.

Now that I have Su Jingyao in this life, there is no need for Chu Yinxue to stir up trouble.

So among this group of beauties, Jun Zechen only kept Yan Xiaofei.

The next batch was the last batch of noble ladies in the capital, and Jun Zechen selected a few unfamiliar faces based on his liking.

Mu Liyue, the daughter of the Minister of the Central Secretariat, had a dignified demeanor, and Jun Zechen nodded slightly.

Mo Zhirou, the daughter of the Imperial Counselor, has a gentle temperament, so Jun Zechen also keeps her.

After that came the noble ladies from other cities, and the first one to come in was Lin Miaoyin.

In her previous life, this woman was not overly involved in the disputes in the harem and lived in peace in her own world.

Every time they got into a dispute, it seemed that she was framed by others. Lin Miaoyin's mind was all on him. She learned lyrics and composed music for him, sewed clothes for him stitch by stitch, etc., so Jun Zechen had a good impression of her.

Stay, be law-abiding.

After that, they chose two people with lower family backgrounds. One of them was Xu Shiying, who had been law-abiding in her previous life and had even given birth to a son.

One is Tang Suxi. Tang Suxi should not have entered his harem in her previous life. He has no impression of this person, but she has a low status, so it’s good for her to make up the number.

The queen, who was sitting nearby, looked at the women chosen by the prince with a look of satisfaction on her face.

This audition ended successfully.

Afterwards, the Queen sent the list to the Crown Princess, asking her to decide the positions of these women.

Ling Yue is now at least gradually becoming the official wife, and is no longer obsessed with love affairs as before.

However, she was still far from being the real lady in the Queen's mind. Her status, knowledge, and upbringing were not something that Ling Yue could improve in a short period of time.

Asking her to decide the status of women this time is also a test.
