Chapter 585 She did it on purpose
Chu Yun raised her eyes and glanced at the lady in green, catching a flash of sarcasm in her eyes.
None of the women standing here wanted to enter the harem and become the emperor's woman. She felt that her fall just now was intentional.
Chu Yun didn't want to explain too much to them, but until she arrived outside the palace, her mind was filled with Xiao Jin's handsome face.
Even when she returned to the mansion, the maid called her several times and she still didn't come back to her senses.
Chu Yun frowned slightly and glanced at the maid lightly.
The maid was slightly startled when she met her eyes, and knelt down in fright. The coldness of the ice and snow made her tremble all over, but compared with the coldness of her body, the look in the young lady's eyes just now frightened her even more.
"Miss, please forgive me. I was reckless, please punish me."
Chu Yun just glanced at her indifferently, "Just wait here before dark. If you think about it clearly after dark, come see me again."
"Yes, thank you very much, Miss. Thank you very much, Miss."
Chu Yun was rejected in the second test today, and she was unhappy. Everyone knew that this maid did nothing wrong, she just happened to hit the muzzle of the gun.
Knowing that she would enter the palace today, Mrs. Chu had been waiting for her return in Haitang Courtyard since they left.
The maid wearing a double-breasted plain coat walked through the long corridor to the main hall door, opened the thick curtain and walked in, "Madam, the eldest lady is back."
Mrs. Chu stood up anxiously after hearing this, and sat back down only for a moment.
Her daughter has been smart since she was a child. She heard that the Queen was going to take a test on her eyesight today, so she believed that Yun'er would not make any mistakes.
The thick curtain was opened again, and a cold wind rushed into the room, followed by Chu Yun.
"Mother."
Mrs. Chu was very satisfied when she saw her slim daughter. Even in a capital where there were many ladies from aristocratic families and beauties everywhere, her daughter was definitely one of the best when taken alone.
"Is it cold? Why didn't you get a hand stove for the eldest lady? If it's freezing, I'm the only one asking you."
The maid repeatedly begged for mercy, "My lord, please forgive me. It was my fault. Please punish me, my lord."
The maids who have served the mother and daughter for a long time all know that the master can never make a mistake. Even if it is the master's problem, if he fails to persuade the master, it is still the slave's fault.
"Okay, please step back. If there is another time, you don't have to wait in front of the eldest lady." Mrs. Chu was anxious to know the situation in the palace and was too lazy to argue with the servant.
Mrs. Chu put the heater in Chu Yun's hand and asked softly: "Tell mother, how did you go to the palace today?"
Chu Yun's red lips pursed slightly, her brows furrowed, and Mrs. Chu's heart skipped a beat when she saw this.
If things went smoothly, how could she be like this?
"You didn't make it to the third round?"
Chu Yun nodded in a low voice.
Mrs. Chu couldn't accept this fact. Her daughter was beautiful and smart. Even if she stood next to the queen, she could compare with her. Why couldn't she even reach the third round?
"What the hell is going on? Tell your mother carefully."
Chu Yun told Mrs. Chu everything about what happened in the palace. The guest officer said that the queen was not targeting her, she was targeting everyone.
"The queen obviously doesn't want you to enter the palace!" When Chu Yun told her the question raised by the queen, her first thought was that there must be fewer balls inside, but who would have thought that there were still three balls inside.
"What are the identities of the three people selected?"
Chu Yun said: "I don't know the daughter of the Qin Tianjian Mansion and the Hubu Langzhong Mansion."
Chu Yun has been wandering around the banquets of the eldest ladies in the capital for many years, and she has never seen any women. They are either those who have just returned from a vacation at home, or their status is so low that they can't even get close to her.
"This is obviously intentional!"
Mrs. Chu was very angry. As far as her daughter's status was concerned, she was worthy of being a queen, but now she was not even as good as the daughter of a minor official.
She felt that Su Ying did this just because she didn't want a high-status woman to enter the palace and compete with her for favor, so as not to shake her position as queen.
It's right to think so from the Queen's point of view, but by doing so, she infringes on their interests, and that's not okay!
"I will discuss this matter with your father clearly. If it really doesn't work, go and ask your grandfather. You are his most beloved granddaughter. If you ask him for help, he will definitely be willing to go to the emperor for you. Don't be in a hurry. Look.
Let’s see what this third round is all about.”
Chu Yun gently hugged the heater in her hand, "Yes."
…
After sending away the forty-nine ladies of the noble family, Su Ying also returned to Fengluan Palace.
"Your Majesty, I thought today you would let the palace maid take away the balls." Zhou Qing had no idea what was going on under the cup before the answer was revealed.
According to her way of thinking, she wouldn't think it was too simple. Su Ying would really put all three balls in it.
"Anyone who can turn a corner will feel that the ball inside will change. It's not surprising that you would think so."
However, those who answered three balls may not necessarily be really simple-minded, or they may be extremely smart.
"There are only three people left now. I am really curious about what the queen will test them in the last test?"
"have no idea."
Zhou Qing:??
Su Ying took a sip of ginger tea, and the spicy taste spread from her lips and teeth to her throat, making her whole body feel warm.
"I haven't thought about it yet. This little ball was just an impromptu idea."
Zhou Qing was a little bit dumbfounded. Fortunately, those ladies from aristocratic families sent money to the palace to find out the news. The Queen of Love didn't even think about it herself.
There are no major events in the court now, and all the eyes in the royal circle are focused on the queen's selection of a concubine for the emperor.
Now there are only three unknown ladies left, and everyone is guessing who will stay in the end.
There are even private gambling houses that open markets for people to place bets.
After Su Ying found out about this, she sent a message directly to Motu, asking her to bet that no one would stay, with odds of a thousand times.
Motu looked unpredictable after receiving the message. Su Ying wanted to escort no one to stay. This was a clear sign that he did not want other women to enter the palace.
The corners of his eyes sunk, he suppressed the sourness in his eyes, turned around and threw the note into the fire, "What a jealous woman!"
"Come here, let's go to the gambling house and start a game, and say that we will bet those three women. In the end, no one will stay."
"yes."
Motu didn't know that as soon as the game started, everyone was in a frenzy.
Everyone was speculating that the queen made things so difficult for these noble ladies because she really didn't want them to enter the palace and compete with her for favor.
But some people say that it is a big taboo for a queen to be jealous, and no matter how powerful she is, she will never be able to dominate the harem.
For a time, there were divergent opinions and excitement.
