In the Sheng Jia, Sheng Yan's position was like a servant, allowing Sheng Yi Qiu and Fu Yun Xian to curse at him loudly. But it was different now, because Sheng Yan had Lan Qin, and Qing Qian's support, so Sheng Yi Qiu had his reservations.

Lan Qin stopped Sheng Yi Qiu's actions and pushed her out.

"Alright, your servant dared to make a move on the daughter of the Sheng Jia, how will she be chosen to the Imperial Palace if she has no rules?"

When Fu Yun Xian said this, the other three daughters immediately became more obedient. After all, entering the Imperial Palace was an opportunity, if they could really be selected, it would be a life full of virtue.

The servant beside Sheng Ming He returned to check the letters, and sure enough, he brought back two letters. One of the letters was written by Fu Yun Xian asking her family to prepare the gold and send it to the palace.

"Enough, no one is allowed to bring up this matter again. Xian'Er, follow me to the study room. Everyone else, go back. Do not go out."

This change in attitude also frightened Sheng Yi Qiu. After all, she had never seen Sheng Ming He this angry at her own mother before, and it was only because of Ye Mei previously.

However, all of these contradictions existed only after Sheng Yan had returned, and she was presumably the true culprit.

The night passed, and the next day all the men were summoned.

Sheng Ming He sighed.

"Today is the day to enter the palace. All of you go back and prepare well. Your five daughters aren't young anymore. Today is the day for all of you to rely on your own abilities. Two hours later, we'll meet at the door."

As the sound of his voice faded, everyone returned to their preparations.

"What's wrong, is Miss unhappy?"

"Happy my ass, I haven't resolved my own matters. I'm not in the mood to choose a concubine in the palace."

"So the Miss is thinking about the Prince?"

Seeing Lan Qin being so happy, Sheng Yan felt that Lan Qin was even more anxious than herself to see the Xuanyuan Li.

"I don't know what's going on here today, but let's do it when the time comes. You can't just follow me in, but you know how to put on makeup, right?"

Lan Qin nodded, "A little."

"Alright, just get me some casual makeup. I'm going to wear a blue dress today."

Lan Qin did not understand what Sheng Yan meant, but he did as she said.

There were fifty people here today, so it was not hard to choose one of them. After all, First Prince had an official wife and three of them were compatible with lateral consort.

However, all of these were not things that Sheng Yan wished for, even though she did not know why.

The fifty of them stood uniformly in front of the empress dowager's palace, suffering a bit under the sun.

He then saw that the eunuch had already set up five stools.

Wait, wasn't it just the First Prince choosing a concubine, why were there so many evaluators, could it be that the Emperor was coming too?

Following the order of the eunuch, the empress brought First Prince Xuan Yuan Nuo to be the first to walk up. Behind his were the Second Prince, Xuan Yuan Gang, the Third Prince Xuanyuan Li and the First Princess, the Xuanyuan mirror.

F * ck me, are we going to have an interview?

In fact, it wasn't that Sheng Yan felt guilty seeing Xuanyuan Li, but it was just that shshewasn't used to facing a consort right when she arrived. After all, he was a modern man and didn't want to be bound by these ancient rules and regulations, and didn't want to lose the power to choose her marriage.
