Reborn, seduced the prince and killed his wife to become his favorite concubine

"What does Concubine Xian think of her appearance?"

Now Su Rong looked as if she was enjoying a good show and cast her eyes towards Shen Zhishu.

So, is this Miss Lan related to our Queen?

"Of course, there is no ugly maiden entering the palace. This girl... is elegant and dignified, gentle and quiet. She is excellent."

Shen Zhishu looked at the face that looked very similar to his own, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

"Since it's so good, why not keep her here?"

Su Rong continued.

Now even Yan Chu's eyes were on her.

Well, it was she who chose the concubine, not the emperor?

Shen Zhishu knew that Su Rong did it on purpose, and maybe he wanted to see a good show.

Is it a coincidence that this Miss Lan looks so similar to her?

"That's good, but it depends on whether the emperor likes it."

"The Emperor likes gentle, virtuous, and beautiful women. Miss Lan's appearance is also very outstanding among the many concubines. If I were a man, I would also like her."

Su Rong couldn't help but said with a hint of sarcasm.

"Then keep the card."

Yan Chu frowned and didn't even think about it anymore.

Then the looks that were looking at Concubine Xian just now seemed to be even more complicated.

Su Rong's smile deepened.

Men, I really like tricks like this one.

Because they can use such tricks to openly fall in love with someone else and still claim to be deeply in love.

When these so-called Wanwanleiqing completely replace the original owner Shen Zhishu, she will naturally understand that Yan Chu's love is no more than this.

In the next few rounds, a few more were left.

As expected, this is the first election in ten years. The beauties among them are all beautiful in their own ways. Shen Zhishu couldn't help but take a few more glances when he saw them.

Therefore, in this selection, more ladies stayed in the palace than expected.

A total of twenty-nine ladies were still arranged to live in Lanfangyuan.

The rest either left the palace or stayed in Yu Xindian to work as female officials in the palace. After all, those things had nothing to do with Shen Zhishu, the favorite concubine.

In the evening, just as she woke up, Yunmeng came into the room holding a booklet.

When Yan Chu was not around, she dressed very smartly and competently, with her hair tied up and her skirt down to her ankles, and she looked neat and clean when she walked.

"Here is the list of the new ladies entering the palace. Your Majesty, please take a look."

"Haven't I looked through everything today? Is there anything I need to pay attention to?"

Shen Zhishu took it and glanced at it briefly, as if he didn't care much.

"Twenty-nine of them, and... they are all first-class beauties."

Yun Meng looked serious, hoping that saying this would get her attention.

"The harem is the place with the most beauties. Isn't there also countless beauties in the harem of the retired emperor?"

"Although the queen is born beautiful, she is also a stunning beauty in the harem, but she has been with the emperor for a long time, so he will inevitably find it novel to see other colors."

Yunmeng explained very tactfully.

In the final analysis, I am just worried that Yan Chu will get bored with the old and fall in love with the new.

So we must be on guard against other ladies who are so beautiful.

"I have seen that there are seven ladies who have been kept by the emperor because of their beauty. The rest should be his former subordinates. The emperor kept the ladies to repay those who worked for him. These ladies should be the ones that the emperor intends to treat well. In my opinion, Your Majesty should follow the emperor's wishes and make friends with these people first and be on the same side with them..."

When Yunmeng talked about these things, her eyes lit up with wisdom.

It seems that for her, doing these things is much more interesting than going to the emperor to compete for favor.

"So what do you think we should do?"

Shen Zhishu felt that what she said made sense.

"You don't have to be deliberate. Your Majesty, why don't you first give a gift to the twenty-nine sisters who have been selected to express your goodwill? The rest... just let nature take its course."

Are we going to separate camps so soon?

Shen Zhishu was a little surprised.

"You and the Queen don't get along. Everyone in the palace knows it, and the Emperor knows it too, so there's nothing to be shy about. You can't just wait for the Queen to make a move before you fight back. You can't be so passive every time."

Yunmeng explained.

It means taking the initiative and attacking quickly.

"Okay, I'll do as you say."

But I’m afraid that the queen is faster than you and has done what she needed to do long ago.

However, Yunmeng's method is feasible.

"Then I will make the decision myself?"

Yunmeng stood up as if he was going to do something big.

After Shen Zhishu agreed, she went to find Bitao.

She is the most trusted maid of Concubine Xian, and all the money is controlled by her. Now that Yunmeng wants to send a gift, she naturally has to discuss it with her.

Then, the night after the election.

Everyone was watching the emperor's movements.

In the Shangshu Hall, Eunuch Zhou brought up the green card.

One table was not enough, so three people came and presented the green cards of the concubines in the harem.

Yan Chu frowned, as if he was not quite used to it for a while.

After a long while, he spoke in a hoarse voice.

"Why don't you see Concubine Xian?"

"Your Majesty, in today's election, will you... not meet the new concubines?"

Zhou Defu really didn't expect such a question and was stunned.

"I remember, there is no such rule."

Does it mean that the emperor needs to be arranged who he will be with?

Yan Chu's eyes suddenly turned cold and he was unhappy.

"No, that's not what I meant. I just felt that... actually..."

"Then let's withdraw. I will go to Kunning Palace tonight."

Zhou Defu was so flustered that he didn't know how to explain.

And Yan Chu didn't have much patience.

He turned his head indifferently, showing no interest in the new green-headed cards.

night.

The bright moon is in the sky.

Shen Zhishu slept soundly and ate his fill, so he wasn't sleepy at all.

She simply put a small stove in the yard to warm the wine. The autumn was coming and it was a little chilly. She was covered with a snow-white fox fur mink and curled up into a ball, leaving only her beautiful face exposed, facing the moon sky.

When Yan Chu came in, he seemed to see a fox spirit taking shape in a trance, sitting there facing the bright moon, as if absorbing spiritual energy.

The face was absolutely beautiful, and the cool aura made her seem like a fox fairy that was detached from the world.

At that moment, his heart beat faster involuntarily.

Even though he had seen so many beauties today, it was still with Shu'er that he always felt unusual emotions when he saw her.

"Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon, how do you want to celebrate it, Shuer?"

He slowly approached and asked softly.

Shen Zhishu thought he was having an illusion.

But when I turned around, I saw a real person.

"Isn't today your big day for the talent show?"

Why does he always appear suddenly when she least expects him?

"Isn't the day over? I couldn't sleep after finishing my official duties, so I came to see you."

As soon as he walked over and sat down, Shen Zhishu stood up, lifted the fox skin and wrapped him up as well.

"I am fine. I can eat and sleep well, and I even like to drink a little wine."

Shen Zhishu smiled faintly and stared at the wine on the table with burning eyes.
