Selection of the Empress-Consort Ceremony On that day, the palace was brightly lit and filled with bustling voices. Emperor Han Yu sat on a high platform, with Empress Su Wanyi by his side, her eyes filled with anticipation and concern. When Chu Fang'er entered the hall, her resemblance to the late Queen Chen Feng'er couldn't help but stir emotions in Han Yu.
Han Xi whispered to Su Wanrong nearby, "No matter the outcome of today's ceremony, I hope you will stay in the palace and share every day and night with us. In my heart, you are not just a mentor, but more like family."
Su Wanrong looked at Han Xi with emotion, nodded gently, and her eyes shimmered with warm light: "No matter what the future holds, I will be by your side, accompanying you as you grow and witnessing your brilliance."
The Selection of the Empress-Consort Ceremony officially begins, and the candidates take turns to go on stage to showcase their talents and grace.
Yang Yuyao elegantly plays the guqin, Li Qingxian passionately recites poetry, Zhou Yan demonstrates martial arts, Zheng Meili cleverly solves riddles, Xu Jingqi dances with scrolls, He Manting astonishes the audience with her political insights, and Ye Huan showcases her artistic talent with an exquisite painting.
During the ceremony, each woman has the opportunity to showcase her talents. When it was Su Wanrong's turn, she conquered the audience with a heartfelt poem and exquisite musical skills, not only demonstrating her cultural refinement but also revealing her inner strength and passion. All eyes were on her, and her performance was unforgettable.
At this moment, the daughter of the Grand Commandant, Chu Fang'er, slowly entered the hall, instantly capturing everyone's attention. Chu Fang'er, about fifteen years old, bore a striking resemblance to the late Queen Chen Feng'er, with a naturally noble temperament and an incredible face that left everyone in awe.
Empress Su Wanyi witnessed this scene and couldn't help but praise it, her eyes flashing with complex emotions. Su Wanrong, upon seeing Chu Fang'er, also felt surprised, unable to help but ponder in her heart whether this was a coincidence or the arrangement of fate, that someone could look so similar to her past life.
Emperor Han Yu paid special attention to the similarities with Chu Fang'er, his gaze shifting back and forth between Chu Fang'er and Su Wanrong, his heart in turmoil. He recalled every little detail with Chen Feng'er, and Chu Fang'er's appearance seemed to bring back the image of his beloved wife.
At the grand ceremony, Chu Fang'er showcased her talent. Her dance was not only elegant but also filled with a combination of strength and beauty, displaying her innate royal demeanor. Every movement and every smile of hers stirred up even more emotions in Han Yu.
Queen Su Wanyi saw all this and made a decision in her heart. She secretly pondered that Chu Fang'er's joining might bring new hope and vitality to the palace, perhaps this is the change the palace needs.
Han Xi was also shocked by Chu Fang'er's appearance. She saw the Emperor's attention to Chu Fang'er and felt somewhat complicated. But she also remembered Su Wanrong's teachings and love for her. Therefore, she suggested to the Emperor to consider bringing Su Wanrong into the royal family as the mother consort. This would not only strengthen the stability of the inner palace but also make the royal family more prosperous.
These intertwined emotions and plans quietly weave into a complex picture at the Selection of the Empress-Consort Ceremony, where each character plays their own role in the power and emotion game of the court.
