These are the basic required conditions for being chosen. Only those who meet these criteria can move on to the next round.

Those who come are all the favored girls from rich families. They’ve been pampered since childhood. Delicate fingers that have never touched spring water, not even a scrape on their skin, so there wouldn’t be any blemishes on their bodies.

Nevertheless, they still must be checked. How good their waists are, the shape of their buttocks, whether they are capable of bearing children, and so on.

Whether they are virgins is, of course, not even up for debate.

Though the emperor and the princes are surrounded by countless women, they require these women to be pure and flawless.

Jiang Ning finds this absurd, but it is a fact that no one can dispute.

She doesn’t want to be scrutinized every inch by any woman.

Especially she doesn’t want to be examined for virginity.

Who knows what kind of bizarre methods they’ll use.

When a housekeeping nanny came over to gather all the girls together for instruction, Jiang Ning sat in a wheelchair in the corner.

“Ahem.” Just as the nanny cleared her throat to speak, a loud retching sound erupted from the corner.

Everyone turned to look and saw Jiang Ning hunched over the armrest of her wheelchair, violently throwing up.

The nanny was taken aback, went over and asked, “What’s the matter with you?”

Jiang Ning raised her pale, helpless-faced: “Actually, I’m ill.”

“Ill?”

“Very, very severely ill, the kind that won’t let me live for a few more years,” Jiang Ning weakly explained. “Nanny, please order someone to take me out of the palace. I suppose I’m not fortunate enough to participate in the selection.”

The nanny’s face remained expressionless: “This isn’t up to me. You wait here, I need to consult.”

She left and returned shortly after with an imperial physician in tow.

Jiang Ning looked up and her vision blacked out:

Holy shit.

Isn’t this royal physician the same one Aunt Hua hired for her last time?

The one who told blatant lies.

The Imperial Physician obviously recognized Jiang Ning too, came over with a big grin to take her pulse, his attitude was quite professional: “The young lady is in no harm.”

To hell with your ‘no harm’!

Jiang Ning pointed at herself: “I just threw up, what do you say to that?”

The Imperial Physician was unfazed: “Perhaps the young lady ate too much greasy food for breakfast, causing a bit of gastric discomfort. It’s fine, just drink some water and take a rest.”

Jiang Ning: “Doctor, you really don’t have a guilty conscience.”

The physician remained unflustered: “I’ll take my leave.”

The other girls waiting to be chosen all sneered: “This is how the Jiang family’s daughter behaves…Not only is she disabled, she’s also so delicate. She’s going to any length to draw attention to herself, even pretending to be sick, pah!”

God, Jiang Ning was so angry she really wanted to faint on the spot.

What kind of quack doctors are these!

Regardless, because of her “feigned illness,” Jiang Ning did garner some special treatment. She was allowed to go to a cool place for some tea and rest.

The remaining girls continued to wait to be lectured, to learn the palace rules from the nanny.

Cloudview Pavilion was not large, there were few servants, even if there were, no one cared about a cripple.

So Jiang Ning pushed her wheelchair and wandered around.

After one round, there was nothing interesting to see.

She even got a bit lost.

In the distance, two figures stood behind a tree.

“Your Highness, that’s the legitimate daughter of Jiang family’s second branch, Jiang Ning.” One of them spoke to a slender young man in a brocade robe.

The brocade-robed young man grunted, “Does she indeed resemble the second madam of the Jiang family?”

“Your Highness, here is a portrait of the second madam of the Jiang family from when she was young.” The subordinate produced a small portrait of a woman.

The brocade-robed young man glanced at it, then swept his eyes towards the girl in the wheelchair in the distance.

The girl was leisurely and curious, looking more like a sightseer than a participant..
