1571 General Chu’s Daughter
The eunuch in charge beside Xia Wei noticed his gaze.
He was surprised. Didn’t His Majesty like gentle women the most, like the Eldest Princess? Why did his taste suddenly change?
“Your Majesty, this is General Chu’s youngest daughter. Her name is Chu Man.” Although the eunuch in charge was surprised, he still introduced her to Xia Wei. “General Chu’s family is open, and the daughter can also go into battle to lead the army. The Chu family’s youngest daughter has a valiant charm. If Your Majesty likes her…”
“No need.” Xia Wei frowned.
!!For a moment just now, he only felt that the red dress looked good and had no intention of recruiting this person into the palace.
“Since you said that the younger daughter of the Chu family can go into battle and lead the army, she naturally prefers a free world. This cage is only suitable for the sparrows.”
To Xia Wei, who had been deeply influenced by Confucianism and had received feudal etiquette for a long time, these words were undoubtedly unorthodox from him, so much so that everyone was shocked for a moment.
However, Xia Wei was very calm.
Only those who stood at the peak of power would know the loneliness of being at the top. He was not a person who valued women. To him, marrying a concubine was just a tool.
As long as they could help him stabilize the harem, connect with the previous dynasty, and continue to have children, it was fine.
Such a position was not suitable to lock a free soul in.
Xia Wei glanced at the woman in red in front of him again, then took the pen and made a huge cross on the painting. “Pass.”
“Yes.”
The name list of the concubines quickly spread to the various prefectures.
In the general’s residence, when she heard that she had failed and the person he liked happened to be the daughter of the virtuous and beautiful Grand Tutor, Shu Rou. The young lady of the Chu family sitting behind the screen was so angry that she broke the eyebrow pencil in her hand.
“Daughter, it’s good that you weren’t chosen. I don’t want you to marry into that ruthless place. Don’t worry, I’ll find you a handsome young man who knows both martial arts and literature. Isn’t it better for the two of you to guard each other and not fight for favor in the palace??”
“Father, you don’t understand,” the young lady of the Chu family said. She was clearly the daughter of a general, but her tone was a little lazy and inexplicably roundabout.
“Why don’t I understand?” General Chu glared at her angrily. “There’s nothing good in the palace. Since you didn’t get chosen, forget it.”
“Father, can you bring me into the palace?”
“No! Don’t even think about it! Entering the palace privately is a capital crime. I don’t know what you’re thinking about every day. From today onwards, stay in the residence properly and don’t go out and fool around anymore. Don’t go out until the end of the talent show.”
With that, General Chu flicked his sleeves and left. As he walked, he shook his head. He clearly could not understand why his youngest daughter, who hated palace life the most in the past, was so enthusiastic about marrying into the palace after falling off a cliff and being found.
He could not let his daughter go to that kind of place, where they ate people alive.
Watching General Chu leave angrily, Chu Man sighed. She looked at the elite soldiers guarding around her and then at her soft and weak hand.
“Although I don’t know if that dog emperor is Xia Wei, he has to let me confirm it so that I can give up. Otherwise, wouldn’t I have spent so much money and died for nothing to come here?”
Thinking of King Ning An whom the maidservants had mentioned previously, Chu Man supported her chin and her eyes flickered. “If only I could contact Jun Shiling. I might even be able to follow him into the palace.”
