959: Chapter 953: Entering the Palace 959: Chapter 953: Entering the Palace Gu Youyou slightly lowered her eyes and said indifferently, “Last year, Youyou visited Fusang City in Dongzhou once and saw the second son of the Jie family.
He was a guardsman there.”
Jie Huanzhi’s expression darkened, and his body slightly swayed, then he clasped his hands towards Gu Youyou, “Thank you, Doctor Gu, for informing .”
Gu Youyou continued, “Fusang City is neither hot in sumr nor cold in winter, being a guardsman there is not as hard as in Beijing.
With the eldest son looking after him, I think he will not suffer too much.”
Jie Huanzhi gently nodded and turned to leave.
However, this ti, his back seed even more bent.
Xiang Chun curiously asked Gu Youyou, “Miss, when did you go to Fusang City last year?”
Gu Youyou replied, “It’s none of your business, let’s go, go back.”
…
Just as when she bid farewell to Lin Qianqing, Gu Youyou boarded the carriage to the palace.
What Gu Youyou did not expect was that, even though many were eliminated in the first round, there were still hundreds of competitors.
This is really…
So many girls are trying to steal her husband.
Gu Youyou: “…”
What surprised her even more was that the first test to enter the palace was an identity check?
Wasn’t this pomp reserved only when the Emperor selected his concubines?
Could she have rembered wrongly?
It turned out Jin Zijin was telling the truth.
Perhaps at that ti, he already calculated today’s situation, or rather, had long decided on this move.
That’s why, he’d rather hide behind a bed and endure than not.
To marry a woman with no family background righteously was indeed not easy, this vile feudal society made her life even harder than Cinderella’s.
An elder maid ca out to lecture them.
“So, every woman who steps through these palace gates must go through this test, whether she is to be the noble Empress or a common Palace Maiden, before entering through this front door, everyone must be clean.”
After this round, several more girls were disqualified.
The elder maid showed no sympathy to these crying girls, saying, “Dared to co here with your body violated?
And still crying.
Soone co, chase them all out.”
“Elder Maid, I am wrongly accused…”
“Yes, elder maid, I didn’t do anything, how can this be?”
In fact, Gu Youyou knew that not every girl preserved “that thing” before getting married; a slightly larger movent, or just any accident, could break it.
Being a doctor, she understood this better than most.
There might be so who tricked their way in, but others were falsely accused.
However, she rely felt pity for these girls, she would not speak up for them.
But being expelled for this reason, they would find it difficult to marry soone later.
The elder maid was unsurprised as she often discovered such cases.
Only those who passed the identity check were arranged to stay in Chuxiu Palace because there were too many people, often four to five would be housed in one room, their beds lined up next to each other, fortunately, it wasn’t one big shared bed.
Just after Xiang Chun had made Gu Youyou’s bed, a maid ca to talk to her.
“Which family does your young miss co from?
She seems quite mature.”
Being in her twenties, Gu Youyou indeed looked different from those childish fifteen- or sixteen-year-old girls.
Xiang Chun pouted and said, “The eldest prince is also not young anymore.
He needs soone a bit older to match him.
What would he talk about with these young girls?”
Their voices were very low, only they themselves, and Gu Youyou could hear them.
