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

The empress dowager who was sitting at the head of the table suddenly turned pale when she heard this. It was obvious that the imperial concubine's domineering and jealous character had not changed at all. She was jealous of the beautiful girls and did not want to be chosen among them.

The Queen Mother didn't care at all whether Hua Wu was vicious or not.

What she cared about was whether someone could dilute the favor of Concubine Yi. Since Concubine Yi entered the palace three years ago, she had been in high favor and no one in the harem could compete with her. During these three years, the emperor seemed to have been obsessed with Concubine Yi and thus neglected everyone in the harem.

Thinking of this, the Queen Mother looked at the Queen and the Imperial Concubine even more angrily.

If one of these two people had been useful, she wouldn't have to sit here today.

The Queen was old and ugly, and the Imperial Concubine was unpopular, so she urgently needed someone on her side who could have a say in front of the Emperor.

Now they finally have a chess piece that they have a good chance of winning, and before the other concubines in the harem have made their move, their own family members have already defected. How could the Queen Mother not be furious? !

The Queen, who was sitting on the left of the Queen Mother, frowned slightly and looked at Hua Wu with some scrutiny.

Hua Wu, who was accused by the Imperial Concubine, had a pale face, misty eyes, and a slightly swaying body. She looked as weak as a pear blossom wet by the rain, feeling aggrieved and helpless.

The queen's eyes flickered slightly, and she said slowly: "Queen Dowager, Miss Hua has clear eyes and a noble temperament. She is not like those treacherous and evil people. Why not allow her to speak for herself..."

It was really inappropriate for the Imperial Concubine to accuse Hua Wu in such a formal occasion as the palace selection.

Everyone knows that the Queen Mother has a special eye for the beautiful daughter of the Marquis of Jing'an, and is willing to protect her. If Hua Wu is really such a person, doesn't that mean that the Queen Mother doesn't know how to judge people? !

This is a slap in the face of the Queen Mother!

The Queen said this to give the Empress Dowager a way out.

But before the Empress Dowager could say anything, the Imperial Concubine spoke up first: "What can she say?! The wife of Marquis Jing'an said it herself that she pushed her sisters into the water."

"Could it be possible that her biological mother had wrongly accused her?!"

The Imperial Concubine's beautiful face had a strange smile on her face, her tone revealed a hint of excitement and madness, and her pair of phoenix eyes were staring at Hua Wu, as if she wanted to tear her to pieces.

The biological mother said this herself?!

That can’t be wrong!

I didn't expect... such a stunningly beautiful woman would have a heart as vicious as a snake.

For a moment, the eyes of everyone in the hall looking at Hua Wu changed, filled with contempt and disgust.

Hua Wu seemed unable to bear this heavy blow. Her whole body swayed again. Her beautiful eyes sparkled and she couldn't help but let a crystal tear fall. She looked so fragile and pale that she seemed to disappear in the next moment. However, she still held on and straightened her back.

"Your Highness the Empress Dowager, Your Highness the Empress, and Your Highness the Imperial Concubine, please forgive me for my impoliteness in front of your palace. I will allow you to explain yourself!"

Hua Wu's bloodless lips opened slightly, and the sound was as crisp as jade hitting ice.

She is delicate but full of stubbornness.

It makes people feel heartbroken!

Is this woman with snow-like skin and bones and moon-like deity really the unforgivable person that the Imperial Concubine said? This... could there be some misunderstanding?! For a moment, the expressions of everyone in the palace softened, and their eyes were full of suspicion.

"Say it!"

The Queen Mother's expression softened slightly and she spoke slowly.

Although she has a stigma, she is really beautiful!

Seeing such a weak yet stubborn beauty crying, even a woman like her couldn't help but feel soft-hearted. She didn't believe that the emperor would not be moved.

As long as she can deceive everyone with her eloquence, why not let her enter the harem? !

All she wants is a chess piece to fight against Concubine Fu Yu!

The Imperial Concubine standing by saw Hua Wu, whose pitiful appearance added to her breathtaking beauty. The silk handkerchief in her hand was tangled into a mess and her eyes were fierce and crazy, but after the empress dowager's light glance, she could only suppress her anger.

"Your Highness the Empress Dowager, Your Highness the Empress, Your Highness the Imperial Consort... People in the capital know very little about me. The little information we know is that the second daughter of the Marquis of Jing'an grew up in a merchant family. She is greedy, vain and vicious. At a young age, she pushed her sister into the water, nearly killing her, and causing her to become physically weak and develop a chronic illness..."

When Hua Wu said this, it seemed like he hadn't said so many words in a long time and he was a little out of breath. His face was as pale as paper, almost transparent.

Who... who is in poor health? !

Why does this beautiful lady look even worse?!

The eldest daughter of the Marquis of Jing'an Mansion said that she was weak and had a disease, but she seemed to have attended many banquets and parties for ordinary ladies! She didn't look like she was in poor health.

Liu Yuqi, the daughter of Liu Tongxun, the Minister of War, had a look of suspicion on her face, while Dou Ruoxi, the daughter of Dou Fan, the Junior Secretary of the Imperial Household, lowered her eyes and thought secretly.

She is not like Liu Yuqi. She is the only daughter of the Minister of War Liu Tongxun, who has doted on her since she was a child. But Dou Ruoxi's family has several powerful younger sisters. If she was not the only one who reached the age this time, she might not be qualified for the selection.

She was all too familiar with the intrigues among sisters in her family.

Why does it smell like something is not right in here?

As Hua Wu was talking, tears started to flow again. She seemed to take a deep breath, and suppressed the grief and anger in her heart. She continued in a calm but extremely suppressed voice: "But the truth is..."

Hua Wu stood in the main hall and calmly and without bias recounted the oppression and injustice the original owner had endured over the years.

"I swear that all the above are true. If you violate this rule, I wish you would be struck by five thunderbolts and never be able to be reborn!"

The hall was completely silent, with only Hua Wu's voice being clear, sonorous and decisive.

Ever since the founding emperor of the Dayan Dynasty was cursed, the dynasty has placed great trust in matters of ghosts and gods. Otherwise, there would not have been a special position of imperial teacher dedicated to breaking the curse on the Xiao family.

Hua Wu's oath was so solemn that almost instantly everyone in the hall believed what Hua Wu said. After the deathly silence, there was a commotion.

Are the Jing'an Marquis's brains broken?! They can't even tell right from wrong?! This is their own daughter! How can they treat their own daughter like this for an outsider?!

Or that fake daughter of a marquis, the real daughter of a merchant. As expected, she was born to a merchant, so she is rotten from the root, right? !

His heart is too cruel!

Her own mother deliberately switched the two of them. After she knew the truth, she even persecuted Miss Hua several times, driving away the real daughter of a wealthy family and replacing her. How could she have the nerve to do that? !

Fortunately, our Great Yan Dynasty has very strict regulations on the qualifications of concubines, and did not allow that fake to enter the palace for selection. Otherwise, it would be really disgusting.

"Oh, what a poor child..."

"It's okay. The Queen is kind and the harem is harmonious. Once you enter the palace, you will be treated like family."

The Queen Mother smiled, hiding the satisfaction in her eyes, saying, "It's not good to have no family and no help..." Then she signaled to the palace maid beside her.

"The badge was given by Hua Wu, the daughter of Marquis Jing'an!"

When the eunuchs received the empress dowager's order, their voices rose a few notches.

"Thank you, Queen Mother!"

Hua Wu bowed her head and saluted respectfully.

She originally wanted to slowly clean up the Jing'an Marquis Mansion in the future, but they jumped out impatiently, so she could only fight back fiercely.

From today onwards, everything that the Jing'an Marquis Mansion wanted to hide will be revealed to the world.

She really wanted to see the faces of everyone in Jing'an Marquis Mansion at this moment!
