The eldest lady planned for her so much, if she lost the election and went back, she would probably be very disappointed.

Song Yexi looked at Song Yunzhao's strange expression, thought she was embarrassed, and said with a smile: "It's just a little favor from my mother. I didn't give it to you earlier because I was afraid of causing trouble for you. This gold hairpin was made by a famous craftsman in the capital. It just suits you well."

Song Yunzhao felt that this brocade box weighed a thousand catties, she looked at Song Yexi, "Sister Xi, I can't take this, I have prepared things myself, don't worry."

"You take it. A beauty like you should wear such jewelry. It would be useless for me." Song Yexi left the brocade box behind, "You should rest earlier and recharge your spirits. Tomorrow will be the last show."

Before Song Yunzhao could refuse, Song Yexi ran away.

She didn't open the brocade box, picked it up and put it in front of the dressing table, and lay down after washing.

It's just that she couldn't fall asleep after tossing and turning, and she couldn't help being a little upset. She always felt that things seemed to be off track, but she didn't know how to get it right.

She was in a daze, and she didn't know when she fell asleep. When she heard Yiyue calling her to get up, she opened her eyes in a daze.

"It's rare to see a girl who wakes up late, so get up quickly, don't miss the time." Yiyue quickly filled the copper basin with water, and took clothes for Song Yunzhao to put on.

Song Yunzhao had chosen his clothes a long time ago, light yellow pleated skirt, pink narrow-sleeved blouse on the upper body, and light green half-arms on the outside. This color combination is a bit hard to describe. Red and green are really ugly for ordinary people.

Yiyue sized her up and said hesitantly: "Miss Song, I see that you still have a blue dress, so you might as well wear that."

Song Yunzhao shook his head, and stretched out the light green half arm on the glove, she just wanted such a tacky outfit.

Yiyue wanted to persuade her, but after half of her arm was put on, she suddenly stopped talking.

Red and green are very tacky for others to wear, but Miss Song has creamy skin, a high nose and red lips, and a pair of eyes that are deep and energetic. She wears such a tacky color with a different kind of beauty.

No wonder Miss Song chose this outfit, it really looks good.

"Shall I give the girl a new hairstyle?" Yi Yue said with a smile.

"Don't bother..."

"How can this be troublesome? It's what a servant girl should do." Yiyue picked up the comb and combed her hair slowly. The jet-black hair was smoothed to the end, and it seemed that it was well-raised on weekdays. It was black and shiny.

"What bun?" Song Yunzhao asked casually because he couldn't refuse Yiyue's wishes.

"Shock bun, have you heard of it, girl? It has only recently become popular, and it is very beautiful."

Shocked bun?

Is that the bun shaped like a bird flapping its wings?

She thought about it, the picture was too beautiful to dare to look at it.

The shoddy costume drama makeup and hair of later generations left her a lot of shadows. She has seen this bun before, it looks like the wings of an airplane, it is really ugly.

Although she looks beautiful, she can't bear this kind of make-up.

With such hesitation, Yiyue's dexterous hands have braided strands of her hair, and the bun is slowly forming. I don't know how Yiyue did it. It looks like an airplane wing, but it's so beautiful just to let people look at it?

Song Yunzhao looked at the brocade box Song Yexi gave her, and after thinking about it, he opened it. On the red brocade lay a red gold butterfly hairpin inlaid with jewels. The body of the butterfly was supported by gold silk, and a ruby ​​was inlaid on it. The wings of the butterfly were also inlaid with two rubies and two tourmalines. The butterfly's whiskers were made of pearls.

Butterfly hairpins are common, but it is the first time I have seen such exquisite and unique ones.

"Girl, this hairpin is really beautiful. Let me put it on for you. It will look good on you." Yiyue's eyes lit up, and the pair of butterfly beards were so exquisitely made, which is rare in the palace.

Song Yunzhao handed it over, and Song Yexi must be staring at her, she was not willing to disappoint her aunt's wishes.

Yiyue picked out a pair of unique lantern earrings from Song Yunzhao's jewelry, two silver jade rabbits holding fairy grass on her temples, and looked carefully. Miss Song was born delicate and charming, so it's not easy to wear too many jewelry, but it's cumbersome.

Song Yunzhao took a look in the mirror, and was a little dazed for a while, because Yiyue's craftsmanship was too good.

Yiyue couldn't help smiling when she saw Miss Song's expression, "Miss, are you satisfied?"

In fact, she was not very satisfied, she wanted to lower her appearance a little.

However, things seem to be reversed.

The little palace maid smiled so happily, Song Yunzhao didn't want to hurt others, so he smiled and said: "Your hands are very skillful and beautiful."

Yiyue's eyes lit up, "The maidservants learned from Mammy who combed hair, but it's a pity that Mammy went out of the palace to take care of her after a short time."

Song Yunzhao could hear the melancholy in Yiyue's words, presumably she had a good relationship with that hair-combing nun.

Suddenly there was a knock on the door, Yiyue hurriedly went to open the door, it was Song Yexi who came.

Yiyue bowed and retreated. Song Yexi walked in directly. When she looked up and saw Song Yunzhao, she was taken aback for a moment, and then said with a smile, "Why are you wearing this? Don't tell me, it looks so good."

Song Yunzhao: ...

"I think it looks good too." Song Yunzhao squeezed out a smile.

"Let's go, the hour is coming soon." He glanced at the hairpin in Yun Zhao's hair again, and nodded in satisfaction.

Song Yunzhao followed them out with a sullen face. As soon as they went out, the opposite door opened.

Qin Xiyue and Lu Zhixue came out one after another, just in time to meet Sister Yun Zhao.

The four of them walked across each other, and when Lu Zhixue saw Song Yunzhao, his expression changed slightly, with a bit of disdain on his face.

Song Yunzhao didn't bother to talk to her, nodded slightly to Qin Xiyue as a greeting, and left with Song Yexi.

Song Yexi said to Song Yunzhao in a low voice: "That girl Lu is really arrogant, who is she looking down on?"

"Don't pay attention to her, she just dares to stare at people anyway."

Song Yexi was amused by Yun Zhao's words, "Let's go."

Lu Zhixue looked at the backs of the sisters from the Song family in front, and said to Qin Xiyue, "It's a shame she dared to wear red and green. She is indeed from the Xiao family. It's very vulgar."

Qin Xiyue glanced at Lu Zhixue when she heard the words, and said slowly: "I see that Miss Song looks pretty good in clothes, red and green can be worn by anyone, but Miss Song's face can be suppressed, which makes her even more attractive."

Lu Zhixue looked at Qin Xiyue, "Why do you always speak for her? She's giving you some enchanting soup."

"Zhixue, you have a bit of prejudice against Miss Song, and she has no dispute with you, so why bother targeting her."

"No dispute? You really like to joke. If she is selected, do you think it will be a big danger to us?" Lu Zhixue looked at Qin Xiyue, she didn't believe that Qin Xiyue really didn't care at all.

Qin Xiyue looked displeased with Shanglu Zhixue, so she said to her: "If you say that, then there are so many beauties in the palace, is it possible that you want to compare them all?"

Beauty has never been the most important thing to survive in the harem, Qin Xiyue could not help but shake her head slightly when she saw that Lu Zhixue hadn't enlightened yet.

Lu Zhixue snorted, and she didn't believe it. There is no such thing as a lustful man in this world. Your Majesty is also a man, and it's the same when he sees a beautiful woman.

Qin Xiyue is still putting on airs, thinking that she can overwhelm others with her full belly of talent, and she will cry sometimes in the future.

What's the use of reading a lot, sometimes it's really not as important as a face.

Neither of them could convince the other, and Qin Xiyue didn't want to start a dispute with Lu Zhixue, so she stepped back and said with a smile: "Let's go too, do you think it's Yun Jin and Jin Yi up ahead?"

Lu Zhixue saw that there were really two people, so she followed Qin Xiyue to catch up.

The four of them walked side by side. Lu Zhixue glanced at Han Jinyi, and saw that she was listening to Feng Yunjin's words. She felt bored for a while, so she didn't speak, and just followed them.

This time they still gathered at the Qiushui Pavilion, and everyone had done their best. Song Yunzhao took a look and found that only less than half of the people were left at the end.

In addition to her cousin Song Yexi, there is another pair of sisters, but today only the younger sister is left. The older sister is also one of the few people who fell from the Foxiang Pavilion yesterday. She injured her leg and was unable to participate in the election. She also left the palace this morning.

There is also a pair of cousins, and today there is only one left.

Song Yunzhao thought it was funny, there were so many brothers and sisters in the family, and there were only so many resources, sibling rivalry was unavoidable.

It seems that she broke up with Song Qinghan after entering the palace, because she didn't want Song Qinghan to frame her in the name of her sister.

The other two pairs of sisters have never heard of any disputes, but at the last step, what should be done still has to be done, and the result is not the same.

Whoever is ruthless can stay.

The late emperor had so many sons, and they were killed, injured, disabled, and disabled for the sake of the throne. Otherwise, how could your majesty be the most unfavored son of the late emperor to ascend the throne.

Moreover, is their Majesty really picking on the leak?

Not necessarily.

Although it is not clearly written in the book, how can the emperor who can sit on the throne of God and wrestle with his courtiers be a little white rabbit, or a big bad wolf in sheep's clothing.

"Yun Zhao..."

Song Yunzhao was pulled back from his thoughts by Song Yexi's voice, she looked sideways at her, and heard her say in a low voice: "I heard from Miss Ye that His Majesty will also go today."

Song Yunzhao made a look of surprise, "Really?"

It was written in the book that the emperor had read it, of course she knew, but Song Yexi couldn't be suspicious, otherwise she wouldn't be able to answer Song Yexi's question about where the news came from.

"Yeah, I'm a little nervous." Song Yexi hadn't been so nervous before, but when he thought of seeing His Majesty, he felt a little bad.

Song Yunzhao became a little nervous after realizing it, just like seeing the top leaders of the country in later generations, even if she time-traveled, she still couldn't get rid of this physical tension.

"Are you all ready, girls? Arrange them in a row of five people. When reading, you will enter row by row. At that time, there will be an attendant outside the hall door to call your name. Now, I will read the names in order and stand in order..."

Nanny Su took the roster and began to roll the roll. Five people formed a team and lined up in order.

Song Yexi and Song Yunzhao separated. She was called first and stood in the third row. There was Lu Zhixue in her row.

Qin Xiyue was also called afterward, right behind Lu Zhixue in the row, and Feng Yunjin was in the same row with Qin Xiyue.

Han Jinyi and Fan Qingru entered in order, and Song Yunzhao waited until the last row to hear his name.

She felt the deep malice from Nanny Su, and put her in the last row. By that time, both the emperor and the third concubine were already very tired, so there was no such thing as a beauty pageant.

However, that was exactly what she wanted.

Everyone marched in line, Song Yunzhao was not familiar with the other four people, and no one wanted to talk to her, so she followed the team in silence.

From Qiushui Pavilion all the way to Huayang Hall, it took a full quarter of an hour to arrive at the place. Huayang Hall is a place to read and see. It is different from Zhichun Palace. Zhichun Palace is more graceful and beautiful, but Huayang Palace is very spacious and grand. Outside the hall, there are maids and servants lined up at two ends, which makes people feel oppressive for no reason.

Song Yunzhao stopped with the team, and stood straight in the sun with her shoulders straight. She only felt that the sun was a bit glaring, so she lowered her eyes slightly to avoid the light.

Among the nuns of Zhichun Palace, only Nanny Zhang was left to watch them, while Nanny Yin and Nanny Su hurried to the hall.

Time passed by, and beads of sweat appeared on her forehead. She saw someone quietly wiping the sweat with a handkerchief, moving very quickly, for fear of being seen.

Standing here on such a hot day, the powder on the face cannot withstand the washing of sweat beads, and there were no waterproof and sweatproof cosmetics in ancient times. If you don't wipe it secretly, you will become a little face after a long time. What else do you choose, just go home.

There are many ways of drafting, but it is written in the book that the last row is Qin Xiyue, and the reason why she waited so long is because Concubine Shu and others deliberately did it to make her lose face in front of His Majesty.

Thinking of this, Song Yunzhao was in a bad mood, did she cover for the heroine again?

Song Yunzhao also secretly wiped her face with a handkerchief, it was really hot, but fortunately she had been prepared for it, there was only a thin layer of powder on her face, even if it was really worn, she would not be too embarrassing.

It took another whole stick of incense before he heard the voice of a servant shouting to start reading. Song Yunzhao raised his head and saw the beautiful girls in the first row stepping up the steps towards the hall.

Someone came out in less than a cup of tea. She counted the number of people, but there was no one left?

Apparently, the news that the entire army in the first row was wiped out today made the girls in the second row tense up. When they stepped up the steps, a girl almost tripped, but it was the people around her who helped her to stand still.

This time it took a little longer, and when they came out, there were only four people, and it seemed that one was left behind.

Song Yexi and the others arrived in the third row. Song Yunzhao watched Song Yexi enter the hall, and he could see that her shoulders were straight and a little too tense, but Lu Zhixue beside her looked relaxed.

As time passed, Song Yunzhao felt that it was getting hotter and hotter. She stared at the door of the palace closely. When the door opened, she saw Song Yexi coming out. Only Lu Zhixue was left in their row.

Song Yexi and the others could not stay, but had to leave first with the court lady. Before leaving, Song Yexi looked in Song Yunzhao's direction and showed her a big smile.

Song Yunzhao also smiled. It seems that losing the election did not hurt Song Yexi, so she was slightly relieved.

Row after row of people entered the hall, and the people left in each row were different, and soon it was Qin Xiyue's turn, and she was indeed left behind.

Han Jinyi, Feng Yunjin, and Fan Qingru were also left behind, exactly the same as in the book.

The sun was already approaching noon, and Song Yunzhao waited until the hottest time in the row. Even wiping the sweat off his face with a handkerchief was not very effective. She even heard the slightly choked up voice of the girl next to her, and couldn't help but sigh.

After finally hearing their names, Song Yunzhao and the others stepped up the stone steps and walked into the palace door step by step.

The door of the hall opened, stepped on the threshold, and followed the guidance of the servants to go forward and salute.

"The courtiers pay homage to the emperor, long live my emperor. Greetings to all the empresses, empress Jin'an."

These were all taught by the nanny in charge, Song Yunzhao squatted down to salute following the figures of the crowd.

"Free of courtesy, flat body."

Song Yunzhao was startled when he heard this voice, and then felt his scalp tighten. Why is it so familiar?

Any nervousness, any heat, and any smudged makeup are all thrown behind her head, so she can't care about it.

"Head up."

Song Yunzhao heard a soft voice, and felt that the people around her raised their heads, so she also raised their heads, but couldn't help but look up.

And then... nothing more.

Who did she see?

At this moment, Song Yunzhao's mind went blank!

Folding fan boy?

emperor!

Did she break some dimensional wall?

Is she dazzled?

Song Yunzhao calmed himself down immediately, and before she could come up with a countermeasure, he listened to the woman who had spoken before and said again: "I have heard that there is a girl with a very outstanding appearance in this year's show girls, Your Majesty, do you think so?"

Feng Yi's eyes fell on Song Yunzhao, and saw that although she was trying to stay calm, her eyes still leaked some thoughts. He sat upright slightly, pretending to be very interested, and then said with a smile: "What Aifei said is very true, Song Yunzhao... the name is also very good."

Song Yunzhao is violent online, who knows what's going on?

Suppressing the steaming hot thoughts that were about to explode, she tried her best not to show anything wrong. When the emperor called her name, she lowered her head in a shy manner.

Feng Yi: ...

Pretty good at pretending.

Concubine Shu turned her eyes around Song Yunzhao, and finally turned to Concubine Zhuang again, and said with a smile, "Concubine Zhuang, what do you think of Miss Song?"

Concubine Zhuang heard that her fair fingers slid across the armor, and her eyes fell on Song Yunzhao, but she had a very soft smile on her face, "Miss Song and the Miss Song in front are cousins?"

Song Yunzhao listened to Concubine Zhuang's question, without raising his head to look, he opened his mouth and said, "Return to your mother's words, yes."

"Oh, it's rare for cousins ​​to run together." Zhuang Concubine turned her head and said to Shu Concubine with a smile.

Concubine Shu nodded her head in agreement, "That's right. Although there is an old rule that sisters can run for election, this is the first time I see you in this palace, so I can't help but feel a little strange. Your Majesty, what do you think?"

Feng Yi smiled, but did not speak, but kept staring at Song Yunzhao.

Concubine Shu felt a little unhappy when she saw it, and her eyes fell on Song Yunzhao, "Miss Song, do you know that your cousin lost the election? Do you think you will be elected?"

Song Yunzhao sensed Concubine Shu's malice towards her. If this is the case, can a beautiful girl like her answer it?

This is deliberately embarrassing her.

Song Yunzhao raised his head and looked at Concubine Shu. It was written in the book that Concubine Shu was the most beautiful among the concubines in the harem. She was a jealous little girl in front of the emperor, and she took a straightforward and careless route.

It's the kind of character that I talk straight to you, don't be surprised.

Under the banner of being outspoken and heartless, what they did was to block people's hearts and then stab them again.

Oh, what a coincidence, I bumped into her.

Song Yunzhao looked at Concubine Shu solemnly, "Returning to your mother's words, it's not just me, we all can see the unselected show girls coming out of the palace gate. As for whether they will be selected, how dare the ministers dare to speak out and do anything to speculate on the king's heart."

Feng Yi was very happy when he heard this, everyone could see the sentence, it was just turning a corner and scolding Concubine Shu for talking nonsense.

Guess your heart?

This is turning a corner and saying that Concubine Shu wants to pry into his mind, suing secretly.

Concubine Shu was choked up by Xiao Xiao, her face changed again and again, she snorted and said: "Your Majesty, this concubine looks very good at talking about this Song girl. The sisters in the palace are all gentle and soft-tempered, I'm afraid it will be too much."

Feng Yi smiled softly, looked up to the other side, "Concubine Zhuang, what do you think?"

When Concubine Shu heard His Majesty asking Concubine Zhuang, she had a bad feeling.

"Your Majesty, my concubine thinks that Miss Song's temperament is very interesting. I like her immediately when I saw her. If she can stay, the palace will be quite lively."

Concubine Wan, who had been silent all this time, looked up at Concubine Shu, her expression tensed, and she sneered in her heart, then she looked at Concubine Zhuang who pretended to be virtuous and considerate, and finally she looked at Song Yunzhao who was standing in the hall.

Song Yunzhao listened to the conversation of the above-mentioned people, and felt that the direction of the development of the matter was not right. Mr. Folding Fan... No, it should be that when His Majesty was outside the palace, he didn't have any other thoughts about her. Why did he act like he had a lot of thoughts about her now?

At this moment, her defense radar screamed, and she suddenly remembered that the heroine in the book was a harem cleaner for the emperor.

The hostess worked hard, but she didn't want to.

Song Yunzhao's mind was spinning fast, what should I do?

At least they met outside the palace a few times, and they had a bit of a passion, the emperor couldn't be so ruthless and push her into the maelstrom of the harem.

Song Yunzhao was so anxious that he couldn't care less, he raised his head and looked at the emperor.

Feng Yi noticed that Song Yunzhao was looking at him, and immediately looked away at Concubine Wan, and said with a smile, "Concubine Wan, what do you think?"

"Your Majesty, the concubine has no idea, as long as you think it's good." Concubine Wan said slowly, as if she respected the emperor.

Song Yunzhao's face tensed up, but Concubine Shu was a bit more forceful and brushed her off!

"Your Majesty, my concubine heard that Miss Song was at odds with her sisters at home, and there were often disputes. I am really worried that if she is retained in the election, how will she get along with everyone in the palace in the future?" Concubine Shu looked at Her Majesty, although she had a smile on her face, her words were sharp.
