- Dongji Port in Nanyun Province, with the arrival of autumn, waves of cold wind blow from the north, giving the busy port a hint of autumn coolness.
Here at a dock, sixteen-year-old Anna is bursting into tears because she is about to leave here for the distant capital to participate in the selection of the concubine for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Ming Dynasty.
Sixteen-year-old Anna is tall and graceful, and very well-proportioned. She has long black flowing hair, eyes as pure as sapphires, skin like mutton-fat jade, and exquisite facial features. She is extremely beautiful.
¡°This is the beautiful girl here in Nanyun Province who has been selected by all ethnic groups after rounds of beauty pageants. They represent the Caucasians and Georgians in Nanyun Province who went to the capital to participate in the selection of the crown prince and concubine.
Like her, there were two equally beautiful girls beside her, both of whom were bidding farewell to their families with tears streaming down their faces.
"Child, take care of yourself~"
Anna¡¯s parents were also in tears at this moment. They already knew that once their daughter passed away, it would be very difficult to see them again in the future.
It's better not to be selected, and you can come back when the time comes, but once you are selected, it is almost impossible to come back as the prince's concubine. Even if they go to the capital, they want to see It¡¯s not easy for my own daughter either.
The palace has its own strict rules. Once a person enters the palace, she is no longer your daughter, but the prince's concubine. In the future, when the prince becomes the emperor, she will be the concubine of the emperor of tomorrow.
"I know, you should take care of yourself~"
Anna has cried so hard that she has no tears anymore. She cried countless times along the way.
"The ship is about to depart~"
Here, the official responsible for escorting them into Beijing looked at the time on the port clock tower and shouted.
As soon as the official shouted, the three young girls and their families started crying even more sadly. They immediately broke into a group, but in the end they had to reluctantly separate.
Anna boarded the ship with great reluctance and stood on the deck looking at her parents. Anna burst into tears.
However, no matter how much you are reluctant to give up, you still have to face it with strength. The ship set sail and gradually left the port. The parents on the port dock became smaller and smaller, and finally blurred.
Anna wiped away her tears and turned her head to look forward. With the slightest hint of autumn wind, she couldn't help but hug her arms tightly, looking extremely lonely and helpless.
With uneasiness about the future, a trace of hope and yearning for the capital of the Ming Dynasty, the three girls kept heading east.
When they arrived in the Hezhong area, several more girls joined their team. These were the girls selected from the Hezhong area to go to the capital to participate in the selection of the crown prince and his concubine. 牺如 9bzw.com 牺如
This time the prince's selection of concubines is very different from the past.
In the past, whether it was a prince selecting a concubine or an emperor selecting a concubine, they were basically selected from the two capitals and thirteen provinces, and the women selected were all Han women, generally women from ordinary families.
Of course, this ordinary family does not refer to the families of ordinary people, but refers to the families of small landowners and officials who have some foundation and conditions. The children of ordinary people who are farming at the bottom will definitely not be selected. After all, whether they are the princess or the Queen or something.
These are all representative of women in the world. At least, they must be well-educated and able to read and write. The daughters of ordinary people do not meet this requirement at all.
But this time, Prince Zhu Houzhao¡¯s choice of concubine was different.
The current Ming Empire has a vast territory, a large population, and countless tribes. There are also several vassal states of the Ming Dynasty, and there are a lot of vassal states and colonies overseas.
In order to strengthen the empire's rule over various regions, it is also to promote exchanges and exchanges between various tribes, and to reflect that the Emperor of Heaven treats all tribes equally. ãá minus 7*5z*w¡¡.com ãá
Therefore, in this time's selection of the prince's concubine, each province, vassal state, vassal state, colony, and tribe are required to hold their own internal beauty contests, and then according to the requirements, send a certain number of girls to the capital to participate in the selection of the prince. Concubine.
Nanyun Province has only been under the rule of the Ming Empire in recent years. The main tribes here are Georgians and Caucasians, so the imperial court also requires that Nanyun Province must select Sanming beauties to go to the capital to participate in the crown prince selection.
After this news arrived here in Nanyun Province, the people here were extremely happy.
Since ancient times, the Caucasus region has been a??The battlefields and plundering places of powerful countries and tribes have made the local Caucasians and Georgians suffer.
This was the earliest source of slaves for the Genoese in Italy, the slaves of the ancient Romans, and the ancient Persians. Even in recent years, it has always been a place of plunder by the Ottoman Empire, Persians, Mongols, and Tatars.
Until it was incorporated into the rule of the Ming Empire, the Emperor of Ming Dynasty treated all the tribes here equally, allowing them to truly live a life of dignity, stability, and prosperity.
Although it has only been under the rule of the Ming Empire for a short time, it has a high sense of identification with the Ming Empire.
They were extremely excited about the Ming Dynasty Crown Prince¡¯s selection of concubines. They held an extremely grand beauty contest and selected Anna and three other young girls to go to the capital to participate in the selection of the Crown Prince¡¯s concubines.
For the people of Nanyun Province, this is something to be happy and proud of, but for Anna and the three young girls, this is not something to be happy about.
Of course, it was not just the three of them. When they arrived in the Western Region, there were more than a dozen young girls joining their team in Yili.
