Chapter 509 The Imperial Concubine Arrives
As soon as Angus finished speaking, a group of fully armed soldiers surrounded the entire competition area. These people were all in charge of the palace’s daily safety. When they heard that someone had brought prohibited things into the palace, they immediately became vigilant.
Seeing such a scene, all the contestants’ expressions changed. The unique murderous aura of the soldiers filled the entire scene, making everyone tremble with fear.
At the same time, another team walked in. When they saw that it was the royal guards, Charles and Angus hurriedly walked down the platform to welcome them.
“Look, it’s Imperial Concubine Anna!” In the audience area, many members of the audience watched as the royal guards stood up. They all looked at Imperial Concubine Anna, who was walking in the middle, through the dense crowd.
Imperial Concubine Anna was the only official concubine of Country F’s current King. She had a deep relationship with the King. Even the Queen could not compare to her relationship with the King
Feng Qing narrowed her eyes as she sized up Imperial Concubine Anna. She had the standard Western woman’s face. A deep-set eyes, a hooked nose, very fair skin, and long light golden hair. If Feng Qing remembered correctly, when Imperial Concubine Anna was her age, she had participated in the World Beauty pageant and even won the competition. After she became famous overnight, she relied on her outstanding appearance to take root in the entertainment industry. In current words, Imperial Concubine Anna was the most popular person of that era.
Many beautiful love started with a beautiful encounter. This was how Imperial Concubine Anna and the King of Country F met and fell in love. After officially marrying into the royal family, she gave up her career and became an imperial concubine in peace.
Although Imperial Concubine Anna was already more than 40 years old, she had maintained herself very well. Her skin was tight, white, and smooth, looking like she was in her thirties.
Today, Imperial Concubine Anna was wearing a white wool coat, a white felt hat, a pair of black tight pants, and a pair of extremely eye-catching red high heels. Imperial Concubine Anna was very casual in her clothes and would never specially dress herself up for any occasion. However, it was precisely this casual style that formed a unique style in the fashion industry. Moreover, it had been regarded by the netizens as the trendsetter in the fashion industry for the past few years. Under the protection of the royal guards, Imperial Concubine Anna walked into the competition venue and asked Charles, “I just arrived here and I heard that someone brought contraband into the palace?” With that, she turned around and looked around before continuing, “The International Fragrance Competition has been held in the palace dozens of times, but this is the first time someone has dared to do this. According to the rules of the competition, anyone who cheats or plagiarizes will be disqualified from the competition and expelled from the palace. They will also be revoked of their fragrance master credentials. Such a person will also become the shame of the entire Fragrance world.”
Charles replied, “Imperial Concubine Anna, up until now, no cheating or plagiarizing contestants have been found. However, the staff of the competition just investigated and found that someone brought in contraband and mixed it in some of the spices provided by the committee. Therefore, many contestants failed in a row.”
With that said, Imperial Concubine Anna did not react. The ones who reacted the most strongly were the contestants who had failed in making the perfume. Only then did they understand what had happened. “It turns out that it’s such a contraband, not a bomb or gun.”
“That person’s simply shameless. He actually dares to tamper with the spices provided by the committee. Such a person is not qualified to participate at all, much less be a perfume maker. No matter who this person is, they must expel him from the palace and revoke his fragrance master credentials forever!”
“No wonder I failed a few times just now. At first, I suspected that there was a problem with the spices, but when I thought that the spices would be uniformly made by the committee, I didn’t think much of it. I’ve practiced the formula at home more than fifty times. How can it fail consecutively?”
Listening to the contestants’ discussions, Imperial Concubine Anna raised her eyebrows. “How daring. Such a thing actually happened in such a fair and serious competition. Such behavior is really shocking.” With that, she turned to look at Xing Yue, who was beside her, and instructed, “You have full responsibility for this matter. You must find out who tampered with it. I must make this person pay the price!”
