Chapter 221 World 4: The Tyrant's Beautiful Concubine (20)
royal palace.
It was bright.
Yin Changling just woke up slowly from the dragon bed, feeling a slight headache and groggy, as if he had dreamed something, but also as if he had not dreamed anything.
"Someone is coming!"
The palace servants filed in, and none of them dared to look up at him. However, this was normal. He shouted and called for war and killing all day long, which really scared the palace servants.
There was no abnormality on their faces. They had obviously forgotten what happened yesterday. They just didn't know when the Imperial Master took action.
Yin Changling had no impression of this at all. As soon as he closed his eyes, a figure suddenly appeared in his mind. He had never seen it before and it was extremely blurry.
He rubbed his eyebrows, somewhat confused as to why he had gotten up so late today and his head was still aching.
"What time is it?"
"Your Majesty, it is already noon, and the gentlemen are still waiting in Longde Hall. Do you still want to attend the court?"
A eunuch said cautiously that in addition to serving the king's food and daily life, he was also responsible for conveying messages between ministers and the king.
But he didn't dare to have any other thoughts, for fear that he would end up like the adults before him, losing his head one by one. Now, he was already very content to have something to eat.
"Tell them to disperse."
"Yes."
Yin Changling should have continued to discuss with them the matter of attacking the Jie tribe, but for some reason, he felt empty inside and had no interest in anything.
He always felt that he had forgotten something important, but what was important?
"Is there anything urgent these days?"
"Your Majesty, the general election will be held in two days. The women recommended by the gentlemen have been arranged to enter the palace for preliminary verification."
"You have been busy with state affairs these past two days and have not summoned Lord Li Duoyin. He wanted to see you yesterday, but at that time, you were handling important matters in Longde Hall and did not summon him."
When the eunuch saw that Yin Changling asked, he naturally told him that since he had been serving the king for so long, he must have extraordinary abilities.
In Yin Changling's mind, a vague figure of a woman suddenly appeared. Could it be that he had met a certain noble lady before, but he had temporarily forgotten about her?
However, in two days, I will be able to see all the women, so I won't miss any of them.
He put one hand on his chest. His heart started beating fast whenever he thought of that blurry figure. No, he had to say a few more words.
"Send Li Mo over here. I have something to ask him."
"Yes!"
The eunuch received the order and left. After a while, he came back with a rather elegant middle-aged man.
"Your Majesty, I, Li Ma, pay my respects to you."
"My dear, please stand up. I heard that you are in charge of this selection?"
Yin Changling asked with concern, his voice was no longer as low and scary as usual. Although Li Mo was a little confused, he still nodded.
"Your Majesty, I am the one who is in charge of this matter. If Your Majesty feels that there is something wrong, I will reflect on myself and think for Your Majesty."
"Hahahaha, nothing's wrong. I don't want anything to go wrong between them or for anyone to leave the palace. Do you understand?"
"Also, is there a woman with outstanding appearance among them?"
"Your Majesty, you are talking about the two daughters of the Beibohou family. They are indeed the most beautiful."
"Forget it, just do your part."
What Yin Changling meant was that he didn't care whose daughter could be selected and whose daughter could not be selected, but he wanted to choose personally.
We cannot allow them to harm each other and leave the palace because of some of the secret methods commonly used in the harem.
Li Mo understood, and not only did he understand, he also had to do it. Fortunately, a few days ago, several vassal states gave him bribes with money to buy some unexpected things, but he confiscated the money.
Otherwise, he might be beheaded now.
"Yes, Your Majesty, I will do it."
"Well, let's go down."
After Yin Changling sent the people away, he went to the desk and wrote and drew on the sheepskin, outlining the figure of a woman, but he could not see the woman's appearance clearly.
He felt a little annoyed. Yin Changling had a hunch that this person was an extremely important person in his life. How could he forget him?
……
Two days later.
The general election has officially begun.
Originally, Yin Changling just wanted to pick a woman at random, as long as she was decent looking and her family background would not be criticized, and she was qualified to be the queen.
However, for almost two days in a row, he was haunted by a vague figure. Not only at night, but also during the day, he was always thinking about her absentmindedly.
Fortunately, the election day has arrived and he will definitely be able to find her.
Why do I say that? Because he interrogated almost all the palace servants, and no one had ever seen a woman around him.
So where did this figure come from? Naturally, the two of them must be destined to be together, and they were not far away, which is why he could dream about them so frequently. It must be guidance from God.
Yin Changling would never have thought that the charming figure was the little fox he had seen in the Imperial Master's Mansion. He was still looking forward to meeting that woman.
Little did they know that the little fox had already been eaten up by the Imperial Master!
At this moment, he was sitting in the main seat of Fengxiang Palace. The almighty emperor was wearing a dark black dragon robe, with his sword Long Xiao at hand, looking solemn and majestic.
Fengxiang Palace has been vacant for many years, but the glazed bricks and tiles used in its construction are still noble and magnificent because they shine brightly under the refraction of sunlight.
The noble ladies had also lined up in the side hall, waiting for their names to be called so that they could meet the emperor.
Many of them were very nervous. After all, he was the legendary tyrant. They were both worried and expectant.
Yin Liuli and Yin Shiniang are also here. The two of them are almost the most eye-catching people here. One is pure, and the other is beautiful, forming the most extreme contrast.
When other people looked at them, there was a deep fear in their eyes. After all, in terms of beauty, they were indeed slightly inferior, and their family background was not as good as that of Beibohou.
But what if, what if His Majesty takes a liking to them?
"...Yin Liuli, Yin Shiniang..."
It’s finally here!
There was a flash of excitement in Yin Shiniang's eyes. It was not because she was so confident, but because after observing her for the past few days, she found that there was indeed no one with a more outstanding appearance than her.
The only person she had ever heard of, whose reputation could rival hers, was the daughter of Marquis Nanbo. Her father told her that the girl had already been engaged to her brother. It must be God's help to her.
Seeing batch after batch of beauties sighing, I knew they were not chosen and were just waiting for me to appear...
A hint of pride flashed in Yin Liuli's eyes. The position of queen should be hers. She had everything going for her: the right time, the right place, and the right people.
Moreover, she was confident that she could outdo Yin Shiniang. With her seductive appearance, she could only be a concubine at best. As for the position of queen, she would take it upon herself!
In this way, the two sisters, with great ambitions and humble faces, followed the arrangements of the eunuchs and entered the main hall to meet the emperor...
