February 15th is the Flower Festival and the Queen's Day. The Queen does not like extravagance. In previous years, the Queen's Day received congratulations in the Jiaofang Hall, and the banquet was given to the wife inside and outside. But this year's Qianqiu Festival is different. First, the birthday celebration is completed. The emperor issued an order to celebrate the Ministry of Rites, and those with fourth rank and above should bring their family members to the palace to congratulate; second, the Queen's Imperial issued an order to bring the girl who was not married into the palace.

"The Empress is going to choose a concubine for King Zhao. Should I take the fifth girl?" asked Mrs. Yan. The biological mother of Zhao died of illness shortly after she gave birth to King Zhao. Now she is raised in the name of Prince De, and is from the prince's clan. Although she is not worried about her position, Mrs. Yan still doesn't want her granddaughter to marry him.

"Old lady, what are you worried about? Although the royal family does not pay attention to seniority, the Empress will not let the family marry two brothers." Grand Tutor Yan smiled. Although there were a pair of aunts and nephews and a pair of aunts and nephews in the palace of the late emperor, there was no harem today.

Mrs. Yan patted her head lightly, and she forgot about Princess Chu. Despite this, Mrs. Yan still instructed Mrs. Yan, "Let the fifth girl dress up just plainly."

Mrs. Yan was also worried that her daughter would be picked up. After telling Yan Qin, she went to ask Yan Hu, who often entered the palace, "Xiaoxiao, when you enter the harem, you should take care of your fifth sister more and don't let your fifth sister be alone."

"Auntie, don't worry, I will follow my fifth sister." Yan Hu agreed in full.

Mrs. Yan was reluctant to let her daughter enter the palace, but Mrs. Yan wanted her to enter the palace very much, but Mrs. Yan was a fifth-rank official and was not qualified. Mrs. Yan did not plan to bring her granddaughter to the palace, which made Mrs. Yan very unhappy.

"The second girl has been married, but the sixth girl is also about the same age. Why can't she take her into the palace?" Mrs. Yan San said angrily.

Yan Xiang also wanted to enter the palace. After all, she could meet Tang Li. If she could perform well in front of the Empress, she might be able to achieve her wish. Unfortunately, she couldn't decide this.

Yan Qin was looking forward to the first time he entered the palace, but was affected by his mother's nervousness. He started to tremble when he got on the carriage, and pulled the handkerchiefs hard, making his knuckles turn white. Yan Hu put his little hand on the back of his sister's hand, "Fifth sister, I'm here, I will accompany you, I salute you, I call someone, you call someone, I won't bump into the noble person."

"Twelve Sister, thank you." Yan Qin held her sister's hand and her heart slowly calmed down.

Yan Huo smiled with a cracked mouth.

Wei Chu's carriage was parked outside the palace gate. The two sisters got out of the car and met with Grand Tutor Yan and others. The Fourth Master Yan handed over the sign, the guards let it go, and entered the palace. The eunuch came up to pay his respects. Grand Tutor Yan stuffed his purse to him. Grand Tutor Yan, Grand Tutor Yan and Grand Tutor Yan went directly to the Yushoutai where the banquet was held, while the female family members wanted to go to the Jiaofang Hall.

On the way to the Jiaofang Hall, I met many wives from aristocratic families. They were all wearing court uniforms, surrounded by pearls and green, and dressed in a noble manner. They were surrounded by unmarried girls. Some of these ladies were dressed in ordinary clothes like Yan Qin, and some were dressed in outstanding style. The position of the princess was still very attractive.

"Aunt Min, I haven't seen you for a long time. Your old body is still so healthy." A woman with a very festive face with a round face with a smile on her face came over and greeted her.

Mrs. Yan looked closely and smiled and said, "It's Shilan, when did you return to Beijing?"

The woman is Lu, the wife of Qiao Shu, the general of Xiaoqi guerrillas. She was originally the wife chosen by Mrs. Yan for Master Yan, but unfortunately Mrs. Yan insisted on marrying Mrs. Jiang. The marriage was not done, so Mrs. Yan told Mrs. Lu to his friend's son Qiao Shu. Mrs. Yan had heard of this old past, and Princess Nanping knew nothing. Mrs. Yan looked at the cheerful Mrs. Lu, thinking in her heart that she didn't know what to do now, did Mrs. Yan regret the increasingly vulgar and merciless Jiang, but she smiled and said with a smile: "Sister Shilan, it's been a long time since."

Lu smiled and said, "Hello, Mrs. Yan. I just returned to Beijing before. I was planning to go to the mansion in a few days. I didn't expect to meet him first in the palace today."

"Is your mother-in-law healthy?" Mrs. Yan asked about her friend's recent situation.

"Mother-in-law is fine. My eldest and the eldest girl accompany her to visit her uncle in the hometown. She will go to Beijing in a few days." Lu said with a smile.

"I remember you gave birth to another pair of twins later, but didn't bring them back this time?" asked Mrs. Yan. After Lu married Qiao Shu, she gave birth to two children. What a blessing! The third brother used the fish eyes as a pearl and missed the real pearl.

"Wuyu and his father went to Yushoutai, and she was so arrogant... She was a little unacceptable and had diarrhea, so I didn't take her to the palace." Lu said of her youngest daughter, and she lied, so she felt a little guilty.

"When she gets better, take her to the house to play. You have seen Qin'er when she was a child. This is Xiaoxiao, the daughter of the fourth child." Mrs. Yan smiled.

Yan Qin was still in a state of nervousness and was slow to react; Yan Huo smiled and said, "Hello, aunt."

"Good boy." Lu took off the jade bracelet in his hand and asked it to Yan Hu.

Mrs. Yan stopped her, "Where is in the palace, you will be exempted from these meeting gifts."

After a few words, the few people said a few words and went to the Jiaofang Hall together. Today, the main hall was opened. Empress Yu was wearing a bright yellow dress and a twelve dragon and phoenix crown, which looked majestic and noble. Several palace concubines sat on both sides of her left and right hands. There were many foreign wives sitting under the jade steps, including Yan Hu's grandmother, Princess Rong, her two aunts, Princess Chengyang, Princess Anguo's wife, Princess Pingguo and Princess, etc.

When Mrs. Yan was about to kneel down, the palace maid shouted at the queen's instructions: "Don't." Mrs. Yan, Mrs. Yan and Princess Nanping did not kneel down, but did curtsy.

Yan Qin and Yan Hu are juniors, and Empress Yu did not spare their gifts. When Yan Qin saw Yan Hu kneeling down, she also knelt down and kowtowed to Empress Yu. When she stood up, Yan Qin felt a hatred staring at her. Yan Qin looked over from the corner of her eyes and found that it was the palace girl standing next to the palace concubine at the right. She could be sure that she had never seen the palace girl before, and she really didn't understand why the hatred of the palace girl for her came.

Retreat to the side, Yan Qin asked in a low voice: "Twelve Sister, who is the girl in purple-red palace outfit standing on the right side of the palace concubine?"

"Concubine Zhou Xian and Princess Yijia, she is a lunatic, don't get close to her." Yan Huo replied.
