1567 The Princess is Breathtaking
Xia Wanyuan had no intention of attending this selection ceremony, but Xia Wei went to persuade her.
The siblings spoke in the imperial study for nearly an hour. When they came out again, Xia Wanyuan had already agreed.
The men who came to participate in the selection stepped into the palace gate and sighed in their hearts as they looked at the magnificent halls around them.
“The Great Xia Dynasty in the past was already prosperous. I didn’t expect that in such a short period of time, a new prosperous dynasty had already begun to rise.”
“Indeed, I heard that the new emperor and the Eldest Princess are people who love talent. A few days ago, the new emperor even issued a letter of recruitment. I wonder if it’s really as the edict said and will give outstanding talents a generous reward.”
“You’re thinking too much. I only have one thought today. Even if I can’t be chosen, I want to see what the number one beauty in the world looks like.”
Everyone’s topic gradually returned to Xia Wanyuan.
Although Xia Wanyuan was famous, there were not many men who had really interacted with her. Everyone was very curious about the brilliance of this pearl in this chaotic world.
Groups of people walked towards the tallest palace. The eunuchs and palace maids in the palace secretly watched the commotion.
“His Majesty treats the Eldest Princess extremely well. There are so many young talents. Any one of them is a talent.”
“Of course. His Majesty and the Eldest Princess have a deep relationship. I wonder which one the Eldest Princess will choose. Have you seen King Ning An lying in Tai Hua Hall? The last time I went to clean, I caught a glimpse of him. That’s the real dragon and phoenix appearance. It’s a pity that such a good person can’t wake up for a long time. I heard that he’s the person the Eldest Princess likes.”
“…”
The discussions of the palace servants crossed the palace wall, passed through the bamboo windows, and seeped into the Tai Hua Hall bit by bit.
At this moment, in the Tai He Hall, all the people who had come for the selection had arrived. Everyone stood quietly on the spot and waited for Xia Wei to arrive.
Unlike them, Xia Wei did not show off. Instead, he walked over from outside the hall with a moderate dignity on his face, but more than that, he was kind.
It made one feel that this emperor was a good emperor who cared about his subordinates.
“Greetings, Your Majesty.” Everyone hurriedly bowed.
“Everyone, rise.” Xia Wei sat on the dragon chair and waved his sleeve slightly. “Li De, go and invite my sister over.”
“Yes.”
After receiving Xia Wei’s order, the chief eunuch immediately left with the palace maids.
Not long after, Reed returned. “Your Majesty, the Eldest Princess is here.”
At this moment, a bright yellow dress vaguely seeped out of the back door of the hall, attracting everyone’s attention.
Everyone stared at the dress and waited for the owner of the palace dress to walk over.
The hem of her dress enlarged bit by bit in their visions, and Xia Wanyuan slowly walked out.
However, along the way, even though everyone knew a hundred etiquettes, they were all rude. No one greeted her.
Because everyone present was stunned.
She was wearing a bright yellow palace dress that was the same color as the dragon robe with golden phoenixes pleated. She only drew her moth eyebrows lightly and had a shallow layer of rouge on her face. She was already shockingly beautiful.
With the flowers as the appearance, the birds as the voices, the moon as the god, the willows as the form, the jade as the bones, the ice and snow as the skin, the autumn water as the posture, and the poem as the heart, one was content.
Xia Wei stood up and brought Xia Wanyuan to sit beside him. Only then did he look at the people in the hall. “Aren’t you going to greet her?”
Only then did everyone wake up and say in unison, “Greetings, Eldest Princess.”
