The emperor just doesn't treat everyone equally, and it's none of my business!

As for the talent show, in the final analysis it is all about various forces trying to get people into the palace. Since she is the niece of the Concubine Dowager, they just turned a blind eye to it.

No one was left in the first group except Chen Nuo. Lu Junze took a quick look at the second group and found no one interested.

The fact is, Lu Junze is not interested in anyone right now, and his mind is not on this draft.

When leaving Chenhua Palace today, Gu Shijin felt unwell and had a poor appetite. He vomited after eating something.

Logically speaking, she is almost five months pregnant and should not be experiencing morning sickness. Lu Junze was very worried and asked someone to call the imperial physician before leaving, but he didn't know what was going on.

Therefore, instead of wasting time here, it is better to speed up and choose a few that you like to deal with. You have to choose anyway.

The first woman to come up in the third group was the Queen Mother’s niece.

"Your servant, Liu Wenxin, the daughter of Marquis Changming, pays respects to the Emperor, the Empress, the Empress Dowager, and the Empress Dowager." Liu Wenxin stepped forward and said respectfully.

She behaved openly and confidently, with a lively smile on her face, which was very pleasing to the eye.

"What are your preferences?" asked the Queen Mother with her thin lips slightly parted.

Liu Wenxin: "I am a little versed in poetry and literature."

The Queen Mother nodded.

Everyone present knew that Liu Wenxin's entry into the palace was just a formality. Lu Junze didn't want to waste time and nodded at Su Deyuan.

"Liu Wenxin, the daughter of Marquis Changming, left a name card and gave her a scent sachet."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

The concubine smiled with satisfaction when she saw this. Although she knew that he would eventually stay, she still couldn't help but come and take a look.

Only Shangguan Yan felt unhappy when he saw that Liu Wenxin was really left behind, but he also became cautious.

She didn't believe that a young lady from the Changming Marquis' Mansion could be such an innocent and lively woman.

Women are the best at pretending, and such women are the most terrifying. Shangguan Yan has been immersed in the harem for many years and can see through some of the tricks at a glance.

But entering the palace now would allow her to fight with the one in Chenhua Palace.

The fourth, fifth, and sixth groups were all mediocre. Lu Junze didn't order any of them. However, the Queen Mother and the Queen ordered two. Lu Junze took a look and, since they seemed to be honest people, he stayed.

"I am Zhang Weimo, the daughter of the magistrate of Lai County. I pay my respects to the Emperor, the Empress, the Empress Dowager, and the Concubine Dowager."

Zhang Weimo was still wearing plain clothes today and had light makeup on her face, which made her stand out among the group of gorgeously dressed beauties.

"This is a good child." The Queen Mother spoke first.

"Yes," Shangguan Yan nodded, "She also looks iconic."

Lu Junze also looked at her twice more, not because she was so attractive to him, but because she suddenly thought of the scene when she first met Gu Shijin.

Gu Shijin was wearing a white long dress and picking roses. She looked like an elf among the flowers, which immediately attracted Gu Shijin.

At this time, the concubine spoke up, "She does look a bit like Concubine Jin."

After these words were spoken, everyone fell silent. Yes, everyone felt that she looked familiar just now, but they did not think too much about it. From a distance, she looked a bit like Concubine Jin.

It's just a little bit worse in temperament.

"It's rare to find a simple and elegant one, so keep her." For some unknown reason, the Queen Mother spoke.

In public, Lu Junze would not give face to the empress dowager, so Zhang Weimo just stayed.

Shangguan Yan raised the corners of his mouth and was very satisfied. This must be the Zhang Weimo that the nanny mentioned. She is indeed a good person, but I don’t know if she is doing something clean behind the scenes.

After all, he looks similar to Gu Shijin, and he appears in the palace at this moment, which is such a coincidence.

Behind Zhang Weimo is Lin Yan.

"Your servant, the daughter of the Minister of Personnel, Lin Yan, pays respect to the Emperor, the Empress, the Empress Dowager, and the Empress Dowager."

Lin Yan's movements were exaggerated, with a bright smile on his face. He clearly didn't look like a likable person, but Lu Junze stayed.

Even the Queen Mother looked at Lu Junze more, not understanding what he was thinking.

……

"My lady, how are you?" Xingyue looked at Gu Shijin who was still vomiting with a worried look on his face.

Gu Shijin waved his hand to indicate that he was fine.

In fact, there was nothing to vomit out, Gu Shijin just felt a little nauseous.

Song Jibai came to see me and said it was okay. Although the first three months had passed, occasional vomiting during pregnancy was normal.

"My lady, you still need to eat something." Xing Zhu said.

Gu Shijin felt uncomfortable when she woke up this morning and hadn't eaten anything. If this continued, even if Gu Shijin could bear it, the baby in her belly would not be able to bear it.

Gu Shijin also understood this principle. She was not the kind of person who would refuse to listen to advice. She said, "Ask the imperial kitchen to prepare something light, and make a stir-fried yam and a cold cucumber salad."

"Yes, my lord."

When Xiao Linzi heard that the little master wanted to eat, he immediately went to do it happily.

Although Gu Shijin didn't have a small kitchen, Lu Junze specially assigned two people to the imperial kitchen to be responsible for Gu Shijin's diet, so it was very safe.

When they heard that the young master wanted to eat, the two imperial chefs immediately got busy.

These two people were only responsible for serving Concubine Jin's meals every day, so naturally everything they made was very delicate.

Whether it is the taste or the presentation, it is the best.

Gu Shijin looked at the dishes on the table and unexpectedly felt a little hungry.

"This yam is fried well." Gu Shijin picked up three pieces of it with chopsticks in a row.

Since she got pregnant, her taste has become more and more picky. This plate of crispy and delicious yam has increased her appetite.

Xingyue and the other two watched Shi Jin eat happily, and their worries gradually faded.

As long as it's edible.

"The talent show is almost over, right?" Gu Shijin asked while wiping his hands after finishing his meal.

Xing Zhu looked at the sky outside and said, "My lady, it should be soon."

Gu Shijin suddenly thought of his original self. He also entered the palace with dreams of a bright future. What a pity.

"The palace is going to be lively again." Gu Shijin sighed. It was finally quiet for a while.

"They are all young ladies, as young as flowers."

Xingyue thought Gu Shijin was sad, so she comforted him, "My lady, don't worry. You are pregnant now, and the emperor still cares about you the most."

Gu Shijin smiled and said nothing. She didn't worry about that at all.

She had never thought of monopolizing Lu Junze. She was a modern person, and her idea of ​​monogamy was not wrong, but Lu Junze was a native of ancient times and the king of a country. Whether from the perspective of thought or responsibility, there was nothing wrong with the selection of talents.

Gu Shijin is just an ordinary woman. She doesn't want to change anyone, nor does she want to impose her ideas on anyone. She is good enough to live like this now.

Why do we have to choose a tiring way of living? Isn’t it good to live an easy life?

She doesn't have super powers and can't change the world.

In the past, Gu Shijin read novels about women who traveled through time to change the world and other people’s thoughts. She felt great at that time, but when the same things really happened to her, she realized how difficult it was.

It is very difficult for an ordinary person to change the world's thinking.

One good thing about Gu Shijin is that he never makes things difficult for himself.
