The princess is so powerful that the fish pond is full of people

Liang Chongyue's gaze fell on the group of young men kneeling in the Cining Palace.

"This number seems to be larger than previously planned."

Liang Chongyue remembered that only a few people had been selected at the beginning, and now there were five of them kneeling in the hall.

Liang Chongyue was originally talking to his mother with his head tilted to the side, but when he saw that his mother looked a little embarrassed, he turned around and looked at the Queen.

"In addition to the ones originally appointed, there are two more sent by the two princesses to serve Your Majesty."

Liang Chongyue didn't expect that someone would take the initiative to send some unclear people to her side, and Li Yu'an could actually tolerate it.

Although Liang Chongyue didn't care about this matter, she had seen the portraits and knew which two were newcomers.

"Your Majesty, don't be upset. Those two were just sent here this morning by Princess Shu and Princess Li. I had a casual chat with them about this before, and I never imagined it would be such a coincidence."

Liang Chongyue glanced towards his mother and then looked away.

It is hard to say whether it is a coincidence or not.

However, the person sent by the two princesses was indeed good-looking and was the best among the five.

"Since you have already entered the palace, Your Majesty might as well take a look first."

Liang Chongyue knew what his mother was planning. Since ancient times, the harems and palaces of the Great Xia royal family have always been full of people.

She has been on the throne for a year, but there are still only two people in the harem. The queen mother has her own ideas, and the people have been sent to her.

"Then listen to the Queen Mother."

Liang Chongyue took the tea handed to him by Chunchan, took a sip, and waited to hear the five people introduce themselves.

Liang Chongyue had already seen the portraits and family backgrounds of those three people. After hearing their names, he had an idea in his mind.

After the first three people finished speaking, Liang Chongyue leaned back in his chair, looking at the last two people with his deep peach blossom eyes.

The first person on the right was wearing a moon-white robe, bowing to the ground, and speaking in a clear voice:

"I, Xie Yan, come to pay my respects to Your Majesty, to the Empress Dowager, and to Your Highness the Empress. I, Xie Yan, am a native of Jiangnan. I have been well-educated since childhood and have a deep understanding of the classics, history, and literature.

My father is the third-rank prefect of Yangzhou, and Princess Shu is my aunt."

Princess Shu was a sincere person. Liang Chongyue had met her several times when he was young, and she had a good relationship with his mother.

After listening to the first person's introduction, Liang Chongyue nodded lightly, waited for the person to sit down, and then set his eyes on the person behind him.

"My name is Lan Jue. My father is General Lan Shuo of the Northwest. I have been learning martial arts since I was young and am skilled in archery and horsemanship. I once followed my father to fight on the border and killed hundreds of enemies."

The second one was dressed in black tights, his clothes stretched out by his muscles, and it was obvious that he had practiced martial arts a lot over the years.

"Princess Li is the elder sister of my late biological mother and my aunt."

Liang Chongyue remembered this Northwest General Lan Shuo. Although there were many generals in Daxia, this Northwest General was only in his forties, and there had been four mistresses in his harem. The border was cold and bitter, and generals would not bring their families with them unless absolutely necessary.

But this general from the northwest was not like that. Every year when he came back to take up his post, he would stay in the capital for half a year and then marry a new wife. When he returned to the border to take up his post, he would bring his new wife with him even if she was pregnant and the journey was long.

When his scumbag father found out about this, he was dissatisfied with his action and reprimanded him in person when he returned to Beijing to report on his work. Only then did Liang Chongyue realize that there was such a general who "could not live without his wife".

"Sister of Princess Li, your mother is the first wife of the Northwest General?"

Liang Chongyue calculated Lan Jue's age and Princess Li's family background. The Northwest General must be very brave on the battlefield, otherwise he would not have been able to marry a wife of noble birth.

But only his first two wives came from noble families. After people knew what he was like, no one with a similar family background was willing to marry their daughter to him, except for those who wanted to curry favor with him.

"Your Majesty, that's right."

The Princess Li in Liang Chongyue's memory was no simple person. She was very good at dealing with people and would never make enemies with anyone. Although she knew that sending someone here might make her unhappy, she had no other choice.

"He's a poor fellow. Sit down."

Liang Chongyue sent the identities of the two people to the system for checking. Having two more concubines in the harem was just a matter of hesitation when she turned over the cards. The people were sent and her mother had seen them. Liang Chongyue had nothing more to say.

"The Queen's Phoenix Seal is in Yu'an's hands. You can handle this matter as you wish."

These people have all passed the Queen Mother's approval and are satisfied with her. Before the three entered the palace, Li Yu'an had already arranged their accommodation and positions. Now that there are two more people, it is not a big deal to clean out two more palaces.

"Yes, I think these brothers are all good. Yao Sheng and Kuang Yi live in Yongshou Palace, Zhou Yanqi lives in Jingyang Palace, and the main one is Dejun, who is a very easy person to get along with and he likes a lively atmosphere."

After Li Yu'an finished speaking, he paused, turned his head slightly, and set his gaze on the two people who were newly sent in today:

"My two younger brothers, please stay in Xianfu Palace. However, I didn't know that you two younger brothers would be coming today, so I need to send someone to clean Xianfu Palace thoroughly. If you don't mind, you two younger brothers, please stay in the side hall of Kunning Palace tonight."

The side halls of Kunning Palace are always cleaned, but not everyone can live in them.

"No need. There are many servants in the palace, and they can clean it in less than an hour. If we just need to add some new things, we can ask the Ministry of Internal Affairs to go over and take care of the purchase."

Liang Chongyue interrupted Xie Yan and Lan Jue before they could speak.

No matter who speaks or what is said, once entering the palace, everything must be done according to the rules.

"Yes, I'll do it when I get back."

Liang Chongyue raised his hand and spoke to Yun Ling:

"Now arrange for the palace maids to clean and purchase all the necessary supplies."

"As for your positions, all of you will be granted the title of Shaoqing. After entering the palace, as long as you behave yourself and do what you are supposed to do, you will not be unfairly treated."

"If you harbor evil intentions, I am not someone as easy to talk to as the Queen. I do not tolerate any injustice. I will deal with you first without your intervention."

Liang Chongyue was already famous when she was a princess in the palace. After becoming the Crown Princess, she killed even the most favored concubines and was impeached by the Censorate for a whole month.

Looking back now, Liang Chongyue didn't know how the Censorate could be so idle at that time. There were so many corrupt officials in the court, but they only focused on impeaching her.

Everyone sitting in the Cining Palace had already heard about His Majesty's former might and dominance from the teaching nanny and the two princesses before entering the palace. Now, upon hearing these words, they all stood up from their chairs, knelt down again, and assured His Majesty:

"I will follow your Majesty's instructions and enter the palace solely to serve you, with no other thoughts."

The five people spoke in unison. Liang Chongyue's eyes swept over these people. They all looked extremely good-looking. No one knew what they were thinking.

Liang Chongyue didn't call anyone to get up. Instead, he turned around, took Li Yu'an's hand and patted it, then spoke in a voice that everyone could hear:

"Thank you for your hard work, Yu'an."
