Chapter 245 The draft begins...
The Imperial Palace of Dayu Dynasty...
One hundred concubines stood in the open space in front of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, waiting to be screened. They were all checked by the maids to see if there were any scary marks on their bodies, whether they were virgins, whether they had body odor, etc.
In the first row stood several beautiful ladies, they were dressed gorgeously, with black hair tied up in high buns... The first one on the left was Qian Duojiao, the precious daughter of the Minister of Justice. Although she was born beautiful, she was spoiled by her stepmother and became spoiled and willful. She was a kind of fool beauty.
On her side were the second daughter of the You family, named Nicai, who was a pretty lady. The next one was the old daughter of the Marquis of Xibo, named Xiao Shulan. She was wearing a light blue gauze embroidered with butterflies, and a pink hibiscus hairpin on her head inlaid with huge oriental pearls that fluttered in her hair, looking very beautiful.
In the second row stood Zhang Yue'e, the legitimate daughter of Censor Zhang. She lowered her eyes and pinched her fingers nervously. She was a beautiful girl in a goose yellow glutinous skirt. Next to her was a little girl from the Dali official's house named Zhu Xinyue. It was said that when she was young, the sky was full of rosy clouds. She was praised by the people as a lucky girl...
Standing in the third row was Su Xiangying, the daughter of the Grand Secretary's Mansion, who was wearing an eight-panel skirt embroidered with lotus flowers in the color of Concubine Xiang. She had a very slim figure, and her big almond-shaped eyes were like a lake of spring water, and her small nose was exquisite and perfect.
There was a small dimple on her rosy cheek, and Su Xiangying's lips were as moist and bright as newly bloomed red cherries.
Beside her was Du Ruoxue, the second daughter of the Bai family, who was wearing a pink dress. She was so beautiful that she seemed like a fairy from heaven. She made the two pretty girls beside her look like ordinary passersby.
Most of the beauties stood there nervously waiting for the emperor to come and choose, a few looked relaxed, and a few hoped that they would not be chosen. Du Ruoxue loved her good brother Xue Jiuxiao, and she hoped very much that she would not be chosen.
While the concubines were extremely nervous, in the Marshal's Mansion outside the Imperial Palace, Gu Yiheng was sitting in the study reading a military book, while his wife Ye Jiu had been busy in the Golden Luan Space for five hours. At this moment, Ye Jiu was leaning tiredly on the golden nanmu chaise longue.
She was a little puzzled as to why she always felt so low in energy.
Today she just refined a kind of medicinal powder, but Ye Jiu found herself dizzy and her eyes went dark. Ye Jiu didn't know that there were three phoenix eggs as small as rice grains in her stomach.
They gradually grew up in Ye Jiu's belly. The little guys stayed in the spiritual essence bag which was specially used to breed divine beasts. These were spiritual creatures that appeared together with the phoenix eggs, and they belonged to the folded space.
Even before giving birth, Ye Jiu's belly still didn't swell, so the general's wife never knew that she was carrying the eggs of the Fire Phoenix.
Ye Jiu didn't know that when she met the strange bird body of Fire Phoenix God in another world, he gave Ye Jiu a fruit with divine power. After Ye Jiu ate the fruit with poison, she felt as if she had eaten a spiritual fruit containing fire power, and the fruit was also mixed with the ingredient of charm poison.
In later time... the Fire Phoenix God and Ye Jiu made love with each other, and their one night of pleasure in another world actually conceived several phoenix eggs.
When spiritual energy is insufficient, the phoenix eggs grow slowly, which may take ten to hundreds of years. Now the Fire Phoenix Feathers often deliver pure fire spiritual energy to the eggs of the cubs in the space, and they have grown a lot now.
The nine-tailed fox transformed into a small animal and huddled beside Ye Jiu. Its nine fluffy tails were scattered beside the couch, and its fiery red fur was as beautiful as a dream...
The Fire Phoenix was perched in its bird form on the sacred Wutong Tree with its eyes closed to rest. The colorful feathers around it kept flashing with dazzling colorful light as the chaotic spiritual energy in the space was absorbed into its body.
The Golden Luan in the space is about to wake up. After it wakes up, all the immortal magic that was sealed in this space will be stored in the Golden Luan's Baoluan Tower.
The hot topic among the people on the streets of the Imperial Capital City recently is whether your daughter has been selected as a concubine?
Du Mansion...
Du Ruoxue's mother was extremely anxious and she was reluctant to let her daughter go to the talent show.
