Chapter 41: Ugly People Often Cause Trouble

Translator: 549690339

These two highest-ranking women in the harem, one old and amiable, and the other stunningly beautiful.

The contrast was quite obvious.

Just looking at the age of the Empress, it was clear that she was the Emperor’s original wife. Her calm and peaceful demeanor showed that Old Man Li was not bad, treating his wife well.

At this moment, the Empress spoke: “You all come closer, this palace is getting old, my eyes are not sharp, I can’t see clearly.”

The stewardess quickly led the young ladies forward.

Concubine Jin looked cold and indifferent, her gaze sweeping over the faces of the dozens of young girls, finally pausing on Jiang Ning at the end of the line.

Empress also looked over.

It was simply hard to ignore her.

Being both very beautiful and sitting in a wheelchair.

Such contrast made it difficult for people not to notice her.

The young girls present didn’t know, but both the Empress and Concubine Jin had seen Lin Zizi when she was young. Even Concubine Jin’s looks back then couldn’t compare to Lin Zizi.

It showed the extraordinary beauty of Lin Zizi.

Jiang Ning’s face made it hard for them not to think of Lin Zizi.

“You are the seventh daughter of the Jiang family.” The Empress spoke, her expression gentle, “How did you get injured in the leg? Tell this palace about it.”

The other girls looked at her with jealousy.

The Empress was too kind, seeing a cripple come for the selection and not driving her away, but instead kindly asking her about it.

Jiang Yuan also felt injustice.

Jiang Ning answered: “Replying to Your Highness the Empress, my leg was injured from a fall when I was young. As for how exactly it happened, I don’t remember.”

“Such a pity.” The Empress sighed.

Concubine Jin said indifferently: “It’s not your fault. However, knowing that your leg is not good, and still insisting on participating in the selection, do you think the royal family is easy to bully?”

With these words, the other girls were suddenly revitalized.

Finally, it’s happening.

They knew that the palace would never allow her, a cripple, to marry the Prince of Yu.

It’s different for others, but Concubine Jin was the Prince of Yu’s own mother, and she must be the most concerned about her son.

And thus, the most picky about her daughter-in-law.

Seeing that Jiang Ning was finally, finally, finally… deflated, the other girls were inexplicably happy.

Because of her overly flashy appearance, and because of the inexplicable attention she attracted, these favored ladies all wanted to see her look fearful.

However, they were disappointed.

Not only was Jiang Ning not afraid, but even the casualness in her eyes did not change at all.

However, her expression was still respectful: “Your Highness Concubine Jin, please don’t be angry. It’s all because I’m delusional and making a fool of myself. Please give me my token.”

This meant that she wanted Concubine Jin to kick her out.

But the words “fool making a scene”…

Made everyone have various expressions.

Although she was a cripple, she really wasn’t ugly.

Not only not ugly, but also the best-looking among this batch of young ladies.

If she was ugly, what about the others?

Concubine Jin must have been furious!

Kick this annoying woman out!

Throw her token in her face!

Secretly, the other ladies were looking forward to this scene.

After all, everyone knew that Concubine Jin had a really bad temper.

Even the Emperor occasionally felt helpless about it.

Everyone was waiting for Concubine Jin to throw Jiang Ning out, but she retracted her gaze and said lightly: “This palace has always paid attention to appearances. Looking around, you are the best-looking here. So, you can stay for now.”

At these words, the other girls were stunned.

This… was different from what they had imagined, wasn’t it?

Concubine Jin only cares about appearances?

Empress, please don’t stay silent! Please say something about this “appearance” preference of Concubine Jin!
