Chapter 2896 Choosing a Concubine

In the end, only Caicai and Jin Shan were selected.

The emperor was not here to watch, but the two of them were relaxed and lively. They had tea, snacks and fruits prepared, and sat facing each other, eating and choosing.

The first group came in with five show girls.

All of them have outstanding looks, are dignified and beautiful.

The thirty people selected from two thousand people are definitely not good at appearance.

Cai Cai smiled and said, "What do you think of these, Princess? I think the one in the pink shirt is pretty good. He looks gentle and docile."

Jin Shan sipped melon seeds, took a sip of tea, and said, "Don't just look at people by their appearance. The so-called knowing people knows their faces but doesn't know their hearts."

Caicai smiled and said, "If you want to know your temperament, you have to live with him for a long time to know."

"That's true. When I entered the palace, the Queen Mother didn't like me. She thought I was the same as my sister-in-law. But what happened? As time goes by, people's hearts have shown that I am the best."

"Yes, the concubine is actually of good nature." Cai Cai said with a smile.

She has been hanging out in the palace since she was a child, and there are only a few people in the harem, and they are all familiar with each other. I have long known about Jin Shan's awkward and arrogant temperament.

If he is not a good person, he cannot be tolerated by his mother for so many years and stay safely in the harem.

Cai Cai poured her a cup of tea and said with a smile, "Taifei, take a look again."

Jin Shan looked back and forth a few times: "I think that one is good."

She pointed to a girl wearing a green skirt: "She looks pretty and aura, and she has the charm of your mother back then."

Caicai looked at it and smiled and said: "That's right. Her name is Han Yun'er. She is the daughter of the Governor of Gannan. She has a soft temper and is very good."

"In that case, just stay."

"I think so too." Caicai then ordered the eunuch in charge to keep her sign.

Han Yun'er bowed politely and retreated.

Attracting envious glances from all around.

Jin Shan spat out a piece of melon seed skin and said with a smile: "I heard that the Zhu family's daughter is also here, why didn't she see her?"

"Maybe in the back. If someone comes, bring Zhu Xiurong here first."

Soon Zhu Xiurong followed the eunuchs alone and knelt down to salute them.

Caicai smiled and said, "Sister Zhu, don't be polite, come here and talk."

Zhu Xiurong stood up and didn't dare to sit down, so he stood and spoke.

Jin Shan looked her around and said: "In terms of appearance, you are indeed good. In the past, I thought the queen was the best, and you are not much worse than her. You are just a little older, and after waiting all these years, now It’s a wish come true.”

Zhu Xiurong is several years older than Caicai and about the same age as Yan'er.

Jin Shan's words made Zhu Xiurong's face turn red.

Her mad love for the emperor spread throughout Kyoto. If she hadn't encountered the draft, I don't know if she would have had the chance to serve the emperor in the palace in this life.

She didn't mind the teasing and ridicule outside.

Caicai smiled and said: "Since even the concubine likes her, I will keep the Zhu family sister."

Jin Shan said: "If I don't want to stay, you are afraid that you won't either."

Caicai pursed her lips and smiled.

This time it doesn't matter to anyone else, Zhu Xiurong will definitely stay.

After getting along for so long, Zhu Xiurong looks good and has a very good temperament. Cai Cai likes her very much and thinks that the queen mother and the emperor must also like her.

That’s settled on two.

Continuing to look, I selected three more that looked gentle, and left the rest.

A total of five people were selected.

Caicai made two copies of the list of five people and gave them to the Queen Mother and the Emperor for their review.

Yun Dai glanced at it and didn't say anything when she saw Zhu Xiurong's name.
