Chapter 1: After the selection of concubines

Sometimes, the four seasons change, the wild geese fly south, the north wind gradually rises, and a goose feather snow comes, announcing the arrival of winter to the world!

In the city of Xuchang, the cold wind is cold, dripping into ice, in previous years, people are hiding at home, around the brazier to keep warm, this year is an exception, the streets and alleys, the flow of people, there are many dignitaries and dignitaries of the carriage and horse, and come and go in a hurry, as if there is something urgent, although the cold wind is cold, there is a flame burning in people's hearts, just for a message...... 'The Son of Heaven is going to set up a queen!' ’

As far as ordinary people are concerned, marrying a wife and having children is not sloppy at all, not to mention that the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty is preparing to canonize the queen, as the so-called 'Shangshi Zongmiao, next to the next generation', this is a major event related to the inheritance of the Han Dynasty's national fortune and the prosperity of the descendants, how can you ignore it!

For a time, the wind and clouds were surging, and the civil and military officials who had daughters in their families, up to ten **, down to just go, all dressed up beautifully, began to learn court etiquette, and strive to cultivate a little 'mother's world' temperament in the shortest possible time!

If you don't have a daughter of school age at home, you can put your nieces, nieces, nieces, and nieces there...... The girls from the relatives came to make up the numbers, if the heavens are not beautiful, the family is unique, they are all 'small teapot spouts', what if there are no girls?

Simple, the wisdom of the ancients tells us...... You can also take away your daughter, there are also a lot of beautiful women in the folk, after grooming and dressing, as long as you can climb onto the emperor's dragon bed, who cares if you come down from the plane tree, or fly out of the chicken coop, don't forget, the last Queen He, the family is still killing pigs?

The officials tried their best to send their daughters to the little emperor's dragon bed, in addition to hoping that there would be a Han queen in the family and glorify the clan, more of them were still eyeing a layer of identity~~ relatives!

Anyone with a little knowledge of history knows that in the four hundred years of the Han Dynasty, relatives are frequent visitors on the political stage, especially since the Ming Emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the emperor ascended the throne at a young age, and the queen mother was in charge of the dynasty, and relatives played an important role.

……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

"Zhou Li" records that the marriage event, the order of the parents, the words of the matchmaker, the parents of the little emperor have long lived in the tomb of the Han Emperor, so his marriage is naturally ...... by the only sister Princess Haiyan is in charge, as for the little emperor himself, wash it up, and with a nervous mood, prepare to enter the cave room with the queen who has never met!

In the palace, in the garden of no worries, although Princess Haiyan and Cao Ang had a secret marriage, she did not live in the prime minister's mansion, and still lived in the imperial city.

A large number of red posts are placed in front of the princess, all of which are the information of the daughters of civil and military officials, and the records are very detailed, including the girl's family background, birth date, appearance, body type, personality and hobbies......

"The family background is too weak, and it is difficult to assist the government ~~ abandon it!"

"The character is too cowardly, and it is difficult to command the harem~~ abandon it!"

"It's too petite to have children~~ abandon it!"

"Well~, this is good, the background is hard, the personality is strong, and the figure is good~~ It's a pity, the eight characters are too hard, and there is the appearance of Kefu~~ Abandon it!"

…………………………………………………………

Princess Haiyan flipped through it for more than two hours, her neck was sore, and her eyes were full of stars, so she had to pat her forehead with her bare hands, barely cheering up, and the maid Lingling massaged her shoulders to relieve fatigue!

According to the royal system of the Han Dynasty, the Son of Heaven has a queen, a number of nobles, more than ten beauties, as for the low-level palace people, female ......, there are countless of them, less than dozens, more than hundreds, there are no restrictions, some absurd and unscrupulous emperors, three thousand beauties in the harem, it is not unusual, and it is a real number, no wonder the emperors are short-lived, and their bodies are hollowed out!

These women, in addition to giving birth to heirs for the royal family, are also an important political resource, once elected to the palace, favored by the emperor, their family will become relatives, and they will share the honor and disgrace with the royal family, share wealth and wealth, and the political reliability will immediately rise several steps!

If there is a big chaos today, the imperial power is declining, and there are traitors who control the government, Princess Haiyan hopes to take advantage of this opportunity to choose a concubine to win over a few ministers with real power, so as to assist the government and make the little emperor's position more stable, the problem is, such a person is not easy to find!

"Why didn't you see the girl surnamed Xiao, doesn't 'Ghost Face Xiao Lang' have a younger sister, it is said that she has a strong temperament, quite like a brother, she is a powerful character who bends her bow and shoots geese, and flies like a horse, such a woman, the mother is a little lacking in the world, but it is more than enough to be a nobleman, just to make up for His Majesty's weak temperament!"

Princess Haiyan has long heard that Xiao Yi loves her sister very much, and she treats her as a pearl in her hand, and personally teaches Wen Taowu strategy, if she can include this woman in the palace, she will win over Xiao Yi, which is equivalent to controlling an army of more than 100,000 people, which is a powerful force that can turn the world upside down!

Moreover, once the girl of the Xiao family becomes the emperor's concubine, Xiao Yi will also become the 'uncle of the country', such a sensitive identity will definitely make Cao Cao suspicious, if there is an estrangement between the two, and then there will be a sword and soldier to meet each other, for the Han royal family, there will be a hundred benefits and no harm!

"Back to the master's words, the matter of choosing a concubine for His Majesty has long been announced, and the governor of Xiao Dadu is far away in Xuzhou, and he also sent a messenger, but he ...... "The maid Lingling wanted to speak and stopped, and her face was also angry, not angry, and not smiling!"

"It is a great honor to enter the palace as a concubine, and it is full of wealth and nobility, and all women in the world yearn for it, is Xiao Yi reluctant to give up his sister?" Princess Haiyan has been paying attention to the girl named 'Xiao Jing' for a long time, and even set the position of the concubine for her, which is considered a high position below one person and above ten thousand people!

"Back to the master, Xiao Lang was really reluctant to give up his sister, so he tore up the will of choosing a concubine in front of him, and beat the messenger who went to deliver the decree, he also said......" Lingling's face darkened, I don't know if it was for the sake of choosing a concubine, or for something else!

"The jackals in the imperial city drink blood, the royal ladder is full of dangers, the concubines in order to favor the harem, kind women will also become bloodthirsty rakshasas, he is to marry his sister to an ordinary person, and he will never enter the palace to suffer, then it is not a place for people to stay, let alone a noble concubine, even the queen is not ......rare, he also asked the messenger to tell His Royal Highness, the woman of the Xiao family, never enter the palace!"

"Hehe, it is worthy of the 'ghost face Xiao Lang', his intentions are far-reaching, but he also sees blood for a while...... jackals drink blood, and dangers are lurking, he is indeed right, the palace is really not a place for people!" Princess Haiyan smiled bitterly, she has lived in the palace since she was a child, and has witnessed countless ugliness and darkness, and she is already half human and half ghost!

"Hey, if there is an afterlife, you will never enter the palace!"

………………………………………………………………………………

Thousands of choices, the best of the best, just like the big waves of sand, three 'birthday posts' were selected, Fu Shou, Dong Wan, Cao Xian, if there is no accident, one of the three girls, one will become the queen of the Han Dynasty, together with the emperor, accept the worship of all the people, and the mother of the world!

"The background, background, appearance, and talent of the three girls are all outstanding, but there is only one queen's seat, who is the best to spend it?"

Princess Haiyan rolled her eyes and began to think about it repeatedly, she knew very well that behind the three girls, there was a strong father, and that was their greatest political capital?

Fu Shou's father is Fu Wan, a well-known loyal minister of the Han family, who is also resourceful, has a lot of prestige in the court, and has resolved the crisis of the royal family several times.

Dong Wan's brother is Dong Cheng, this person was born in a famous family, and he is also loyal to the Han family, the most important thing is that he is one of the very few military generals who is not attached to Cao Cao.

Cao Xian's father is Cao Cao, the prime minister of the Han Dynasty, a traitor in troubled times, if his daughter is made the queen, it can indeed ease the contradictions between the palace and the prime minister's mansion, and in a short period of time, it can also ensure the stability of the little emperor's dragon chair, but the disadvantages are also obvious?

Cao Cao now controls the military and political power of the imperial court, and is a veritable 'uncrowned king', the only thing lacking is that his background is too humble, and he has always been looked down upon by the scholars and gate lords, if he becomes the ruler of the dynasty, his identity will be even more prominent, and with this as political capital, he will be able to better control the imperial court, ~~ Don't forget, the rebel thief Wang Mang, who usurped the Han Dynasty back then, is also the ruler of the country!

Weighing the pros and cons, thinking about it again and again, the three 'birthday cards' swirled in Princess Haiyan's heart, how to choose~~~~ "Hey, when the interruption continues, it will be chaotic, it will be her!" ”
