Dressed as a beauty to be selected, the game starts in hell mode!

Doesn't this sentence mean that she is ignorant and uneducated in front of the emperor? !

The villain in Hua Wu's heart pouted, but she stood up and said respectfully and submissively, "I am from a humble background and have only learned some books such as "Female Training" and "Female Rules". I am a layman in the art of calligraphy and have never had the honor to study it in depth."

“But every time I hear the name of the calligrapher Chen Yizhi, I still feel a sense of respect in my heart.”

"Today, I see the original work, and I feel that its brushwork is more powerful and its spirit is more vivid."

“Although I don’t understand the ins and outs of this, I can still feel the shock brought by this authentic work.”

"It's just that I am a humble concubine, and I can't express my feelings in words. I am sorry to make you laugh, Your Majesty."

Hua Wu bowed slightly when she reached this point, her attitude humble yet elegant.

Hua Wu's words were neither humble nor arrogant, and immediately won the favor of many ministers.

It is virtue for a woman to have no talent!

Although Concubine Xian was not well-educated, she was gentle, kind, and virtuous. She served the Emperor with loyalty and dedication, and she deserved the word "virtuous".

Emperor Jinghong Xiao Lin recalled that Hua Wu had written the two fat characters "Hua Wu" for many days and still did not look cute. He felt amused. Hua Wu's handwriting was as lovely as Hua Wu herself. He could not help but look at Hua Wu twice more, his eyes full of doting smiles.

A crisis was resolved by Hua Wu without any effort.

Imperial Noble Consort Feng Chaoyun had an unpleasant look on her face, but she had to force a smile. The handkerchief under the table was tangled into a ball by her.

This virtuous concubine is really eloquent!

but it does not matter!

This is not the end yet!

Imperial Concubine Feng Chaoyun thought hatefully in her heart.

After the president of the Hanlin Academy went down, he presented the gift from the Governor of Anhui. It turned out to be a complete set of head jewelry made of a piece of pink jadeite, including an eighteen-bead bracelet, a melon-shaped pink pendant, a pink camellia jade hairpin, earrings of the same style, a pink and green peach hairpin with kingfisher feathers, a pink jade butterfly flower necklace... The most eye-catching one was the Fritillaria peony crown made of pink jadeite, pearls and kingfisher feathers. It was gorgeous and dazzling.

Hua Wu's eyes suddenly became fixed, her gaze glued to it, unable to move away, her eyes full of desire, liking, and beauty.

Not only Hua Wu's eyes widened, but all the concubines in the palace also looked at the heavy peony crown. Who wouldn't want such a beautiful crown? Even the queen couldn't help but take a second look.

Emperor Jinghong Xiao Lin wanted to laugh again when he saw Hua Wu's greedy look. He waved his hand again and summoned Qin Zhong...

Watching the young eunuch walk up and take the gift away, Hua Wu's eyes were still reluctant to let go...

Concubine Jin saw clearly the reluctance in Hua Wu's eyes. At the same time, she also saw the way the emperor looked at Hua Wu twice and the way he waved his hand and called Qin Zhong. She had a premonition that these two things would fall into Hua Wu's hands.

Concubine Jin Zhao Youwu felt a pang in her heart when she saw the loving look in Emperor Jinghong Xiao Lin's eyes when he looked at Hua Wu.

The Governor of Anhui sent this jewelry carved from a whole piece of pink jade, obviously for the emperor to reward one piece at a time. However, the emperor actually gave the entire set of head ornaments to Hua Wu.

What virtue and ability does Hua Wu have? !

"You don't like Concubine Xian either?!"

Suddenly, she heard a cold voice. She looked in the direction of the voice and saw that the person speaking was Concubine Chu Jingyue. Her brows relaxed.

"dislike!"

The emperor treated her sincerely, but...

"The way she looks at the emperor is no different from the way the other concubines in the harem look at the emperor. It's all desire, without a trace of sincerity..."

Concubine Jin felt unfair for the Emperor, so she hated the virtuous Concubine Hua Wu.

When Concubine Yi was favored, the reason why she did not hate Concubine Yi was because Concubine Yi Chu Jingyue was the only one in the palace who truly loved the emperor like she did, and they looked at the emperor in the same way.

Concubine Jin said coldly.

Concubine Yi was both moved and aggrieved, and her beautiful eyes looked at Emperor Jinghong Xiao Lin with resentment.

She was touched that Concubine Jin understood her feelings; she felt aggrieved that the Emperor had glanced at Concubine Xian several times but had never looked at her.

At this moment, she couldn't help but hope that Imperial Concubine Feng Chaoyun would find fault with her as usual, so that the Emperor would notice her.

Concubine Jie wanted the emperor to notice her, but she couldn't flatter and curry favor with him like other concubines did, as that would be humiliating to her!

"There is no need for the Imperial Concubine to be so depressed. The Emperor is only temporarily attracted to Concubine Xian. One day, he will see Concubine Xian's true face." Concubine Jin gently comforted Concubine Yi.

One day, the emperor will find out that they are the only ones in the palace who are sincere to him.

Imperial Concubine Jue was comforted. She straightened her back without any sadness or resentment. She became the noble and self-respecting imperial concubine again. She smiled and said, "If Imperial Concubine Jin is free in the future, why don't you come to my Hehuan Palace and have a seat..."

"certainly!"

Concubine Jin also smiled and agreed.

The two looked at each other and smiled, saying nothing.

Both Concubine Jie and Concubine Jin were aloof people, and they were not familiar with the other concubines, so it was rare for them to get along well with each other. They would occasionally whisper to each other, but they got along well.

Hua Wu didn't care what Concubine Yi and Concubine Jin were talking about. She was already dazzled and overwhelmed by the gifts sent by the court officials.

Gee...

No wonder everyone wants to be the emperor. With so many good things, she wants to get rid of Xiao Lin and become the emperor herself.

Hua Wu secretly glanced at Xiao Lin, her eyes extremely fiery.

Emperor Jinghong Xiao Lin felt Hua Wu's fiery gaze and thought that Hua Wu was missing him. He couldn't help but feel hot on his face. This Ah Wu, even if he hadn't been to Yiku Palace for some time, he couldn't look at him like this in public!

Shameless!

But my heart felt sweeter than before.

Emperor Jinghong Xiao Lin decided that after the banquet, he would go to Yiku Palace to see Hua Wu.

Otherwise, who knows what outrageous things Ah Wu would do.

An hour later, all the gifts from the court officials were delivered, and next came the birthday gifts from the concubines.

Some concubines gave gifts of thousand-year-old ginseng, some gave golden longevity peaches, some gave jade screens, some gave rare ancient books... Some concubines even performed their talents...

Concubine Ru Rou plays the Yueqin with exquisite skills, and her melodious music is intoxicating, relaxing and joyful, and she is full of praise.

The concubine He of Gyeongbokgung wrote a picture of "Long Live the Emperor" to the sound of the zither played by the concubine Jing of Imhwagung, and presented it to the emperor, winning congratulations from the whole palace.

Concubine Meng sang a lost famous pipa piece from the previous dynasty, "Lin'an First Rain". When the piece ended, the lingering sound lingered for a long time, and the applause was thunderous;

The song "Golden Threaded Clothes" sung by Concubine Wei was like the sound of nature, untainted by dust, pure and moving.

Concubine Liu performed her best dance, the "Green Waist Dance". Her dancing moves were graceful and varied, sometimes gentle and lingering, sometimes like a long stream. Her superb dancing skills were moving.

……

My concubines, you guys finish your performances, and now I will take the stage.

Everyone tries their best to show their best side...

Imperial Noble Consort Feng Chaoyun also spared no effort in commenting on them, praising each of them to the highest heavens and on earth.

Although she felt indignant when she praised someone, she had to speak flattering words against her will in order to highlight Hua Wu's ignorance and vulgarity.

She almost vomited after talking so much!

Emperor Jinghong Xiao Lin glanced at Imperial Consort Feng Chaoyun indifferently. In fact, if she didn't want to say it, she didn't have to say it, so as to avoid making him feel uncomfortable listening to it, and it would also be uncomfortable for her to say it.

In fact, Emperor Jinghong Xiao Lin's attention was not on the performances of these concubines, because he found that Hua Wu quietly left when the concubines just started the performance and has not returned until now.

Emperor Jinghong Xiao Lin was a little worried.

Ah Wu is not feeling well. Is she feeling unwell? !

He summoned Qin Zhong to inquire about Hua Wu's whereabouts, but Qin Zhong told him mysteriously that he should just wait...

Just as Emperor Jinghong Xiao Lin was puzzled, a melodious music sounded quietly, like the sound of nature. In an instant, the edge of the stage was gently surrounded by a layer of soft white mist. The mist was like a dream, with a wisp of orchid and musk fragrance, refreshing the heart.

At the banquet, countless petals floated down from the sky, fluttering in the air, and the falling petals were colorful, making the entire Qianqiu Banquet look like a fairyland...
