Bones forge the throne. The road to succession is nine deaths and one life.

His beloved woman was at the best age, and exchanged her life's blood for him to reach the top and look at the world.

Then he said to her, "I will marry you."

Gong Shoufu and his wife overlapped their hands and put a delicate little hand in the middle, the two old men faded all the majesty and nobility in front of outsiders, and only looked at the children in front of them with distress and pity, they spoiled their precious granddaughters from childhood to adulthood.

"Bao'er, this palace is not more comfortable than at home, you are still young, you have never seen the beauty of the world, the emperor is not a good person."

Gong Shoufu's words were almost full of tears, and Mrs. Gong's face was already full of tears, and she was reluctant and even more distressed.

Qingruo's clear apricot eyes were clean, with crystal tears in the corners of her eyes, and she beckoned Ruyi behind her to wipe her tears for Mrs. Gong, "It's Qingruo who worries my grandfather and grandmother, but Qingruo, I have made up my mind." ”

Qingruo has been well-behaved and lovely since she was a child, and she is the only concubine, almost Gong Shoufu and Mrs. Gong are spoiled as eye pearls, this child is filial piety, and sincerely feels sorry for them, but it is a little bit, dead eyes, and there is no possibility of pulling it back.

Gong Shoufu sighed heavily, Qing Ruolai said goodbye, and knelt on the ground, although the ground was cushioned with soft pu, but he was reluctant, he used his strength in his hand, and pulled her up first, "Bao'er, grandfather won't stop you, Ruyi Linglong, you take it into the palace, and the other people's grandfathers will arrange it for you, if anyone in the palace makes trouble for you, you let them deal with it first, and send someone to inform grandfather, grandfather wants her to go around if she can't eat." ”

Although Gong Shoufu is a civil official, but counting the current Emperor Yongkun, he has assisted three generations of emperors, and now he is in a high position, these words have deliberately restrained his momentum when he talks to Qingruo, but the slaughter in his eyes is by no means a joke.

Qingruo stood beside the second elder and patted their hands lightly to reassure, "Grandfather and grandmother, don't worry, is your granddaughter such a soft persimmon that can be manipulated by others?" Said playfully and winked.

Even Mrs. Gong, who was teary-eyed, couldn't help laughing, the little girl did have a brilliant record since she was a child, and several brothers who said nothing outside were all defeated.

Thinking about it, I felt a little more settled in my heart.

Mrs. Gong took her hand, asked her to sit between the two, and explained carefully, "Bao'er, those women in the palace are mostly insidious means, your grandmother and grandfather will arrange good people for you, and the things sent by others will be thrown away directly by Ruyi and Linglong, and if you have a problem, tell your grandmother, Bao'er, you don't use those subordinate means, grandmother will clean them up for you." ”

Qingruo covered her mouth and chuckled, leaning on Mrs. Gong's arm and rubbing it like a kitten, which made the second elder pity and love.

In the afternoon, she will enter the palace, and she will have to go out of the boudoir to clean up after a while, and the second old man is reluctant, but it can only be like this.

Qing Ruo finally knelt down three times in front of the second elder sincerely, and was helped up by Ruyi Linglong and explained again, "Grandfather and grandmother, you must hide the news, don't tell my father, mother, and brothers." ”

Gong Shoufu has been a civil servant all his life, but only one of his sons has inherited the mantle, and the others have taken the road of military attachés, and now her father, mother and several brothers are stationed at the border pass, if the news passes, Qingruo feels that she has no chance to start this task, and she will be placed under house arrest directly, and then it will be the result of her fierce parents recruiting all kinds of beautiful men to come to the house for her to choose.

……

Gong Shoufu and Mrs. Gong sighed helplessly, they didn't know that their son and daughter-in-law were back, and they knew how they let Bao'er mess around so much, now, let's hide it first.

Gong Shoufu endured tears in the corners of his eyes and waved his hand, "Go ahead." ”

Qingruo retreated, walked to the door, and heard the second old man ask her eagerly in a sad voice, "Is the silver two you have prepared enough?" ”

Qingruo swallowed the acid in his throat, raised a smile and looked back, "It's enough~ If I run out, I'll ask my grandfather and grandmother~"

In this time and space, she didn't come to do the task, and she arrived relatively early, and she became the little padded jacket of the family with peace of mind, although her father and mother also had a good relationship, but because she had to be stationed at the border, she was reluctant to take a girl to suffer, and she often accompanied her grandfather and grandmother at home, and their distress for her was no different from her parents.

Even though she knew that the palace was a fire pit, she made a request, crying and making trouble, they were still reluctant to refuse, they couldn't bear to let her down, and always asked her to try it herself, hoping that she would know that person was impossible.

As soon as Qingruo's figure disappeared, Mrs. Gong had already covered her eyes with a handkerchief, and the old voice was suppressed and choked.

Gong Shoufu reached out and patted her shoulder, but he didn't know what to say.

Mrs. Gong buried her head in a handkerchief, her voice as helpless as a child, "You explain to the people in the palace, don't let her suffer, she is just sixteen now, when she dies of thoughts about the emperor, rush to the market to take her out, I will find all the young talents for her." ”

Gong Shoufu sighed, "I know. "The smoking gun is placed on the table, there is no tobacco in it, Qingruo does not let him smoke, he has been sick for decades, she played a small trick to let him quit, and then there was no tobacco at home, but the smoking gun he used to use has been put away.

The palm of the hand touched, the copper touch was cold and cold, thinking of the young emperor, Gong Shoufu felt a lot of feelings in his heart, "Although His Majesty is indifferent, but he is still interested in the Gong family, last month I tentatively asked His Majesty what he meant, and His Majesty also asked me if I wanted to marry directly, I was afraid that Bao'er would not be able to think about it, and I didn't want this kindness, and now Bao'er is obsessed, and His Majesty Xià also sent someone to my ward, not to give the title, and not to see, she is now at an uncertain age, and she is so fun and active, and she will be tired of the palace for half a year, When the time comes, Majesty will give grace to give a marriage. With us behind us, Bao'er will not suffer any grievances. ”

Mrs. Gong raised her head from the handkerchief and nodded heavily, although she was biased towards her granddaughter, but Her Majesty had never provoked, and she should not have been at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet last time, Bao'er had never liked the complicated festivals of the palace, and she never liked to participate in banquets.

Gong Shoufu was troubled twice by Qingruo last month, and went to inquire about the meaning of His Majesty, there are not many women in the harem, and the back seat is also empty, but not only the women in the harem know, but most of the old people in the court also know that this back position is probably empty for a lifetime.

The person who had promised to give the queen position is gone, and all the women in this harem have become ornaments.

The emperor's whole mind is now on the territory, and there have been courtiers and his young people who want to exert pressure, but in the end, nothing has ended well.

Seven years after ascending the throne, Emperor Yongkun used his amazing ability to govern the world and iron-blooded means to tell everyone, he was the supreme emperor of Jingheng Kingdom, and he did not allow anyone to question and refute.

Now Emperor Yongkun's iron cavalry is fighting in neighboring countries, and he has been on the throne for seven years, which is already the third country that his iron cavalry troops have conquered, but there is no expected bad result.

In dealing with the people, his policy attitude makes the people support and submit, but he has always been an iron-blooded and ruthless means to treat other countries.

So now, the court is his, Jing Hengguo is his, no one dares to point fingers at the affairs of the harem, even if the harem is in vain, no courtier should point fingers in the name of concern.

Gong Shoufu never thought that his precious granddaughter would one day go to the harem to wade into the troubled waters, but she begged them for the first time since she was a child, and cried so pitifully and longing for the first time.

He asked the emperor with a thick old face, and the emperor was also direct, "Impossible, don't delay her." These were the original words, and then he added, "Whoever you like, I can marry directly." ’

At that time, he was moved.

But in the end, knowing her temperament, Gong Shoufu didn't want this grace.

Sure enough, although she didn't make trouble, the maid came to tell her, and she shed tears in the quilt all night long, eating the same during the day, but her body was getting thinner and thinner.

There is no way, go and beg the emperor again.

The emperor was silent, sitting behind the imperial table, the emperor Xingmei sword eyes, the long hair was meticulously crowned, and the dragon robe on his body was a five-clawed golden dragon flying in the sky, and the dragon's eye was inlaid with rubies.

"If you think about it, you can send it in. The Gong family has been loyal for so many years, I have measured in my heart, the glory of the Gong family has reached its peak, and it is impossible to seal it again, it can be regarded as a grace to you, I will not give her a title, nor will I call her to sleep, and when she stays enough, I can help you erase the traces in the palace, and the marriage I said that day is still valid. ”

Gong Shoufu couldn't help but look up, the emperor didn't look at him, his eyes fell on the fold on the desk, holding a brush in one hand, flipping the streamer between waves, and his words were casual but majestic.

This is the reason why he was most optimistic about him back then, these words, how can other emperors tell you clearly, so calm that they are clean but make you surrender and awe, because he has absolute power in his hands, so he is honest.

The emperor is not only wearing a dragon robe to show his dignity, but also a loyal and follower who stands in front of him to make people's hearts calm.

Gong Shoufu kowtowed, "Old minister Xie Xià." ”

The emperor finally raised his hand, put the brush on the side of the pen, leaned on the bright yellow dragon seat behind him, his eyes fell slightly downward, and his eyelashes fell on a row of scattered shadows at the curtain of his eyes. "Knock Xie I accepted it, it's not more than three things, this is the last time, you think it out for yourself."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

On the second day of the winter solstice when Qingruo entered the palace, the festive joy of the winter solstice in the palace had not yet dissipated, and the bright red of the lanterns could be seen everywhere.

A guard, a soft sedan chair, and some boxes that were packed up.

It's not lively, it's not deserted.

The palace arranged by the steward is Jiuhe Palace, and when you hear the name, you know that it is not like a palace where concubines live.

Although it is in the imperial palace, it is one south and one north of the palace where the concubine lives, and the place where she lives actually belongs to the palace where the envoy lives.

Because of Emperor Yongkun's iron-blooded methods and the iron cavalry troops who have become more and more brave in recent years, the palace where the envoys live has been almost empty in recent years. Now I have a whole palace for her, which is so spacious that she can almost ride a horse in it, but the disadvantage is that it is far away from the emperor's harem, which means that it is also far away from the emperor.

Guan already knew a little bit of news beforehand, I thought that Qingruo would make trouble, and I had already thought of various ways to deal with it, but I didn't expect Qingruo to be in a good mood all the time, and after seeing the palace, he also gave him a big 'package'.

Instantly breathed a sigh of relief, and his favorability soared directly, "Miss Gong needs to send people to the ward servants of the Internal Affairs Office in the future." ”

"Okay, then there's a labor manager."

"Don't dare, Miss Gong has tormented the minion, the slave has retired first, Miss Gong, you rest."

Qingruo looked around at the Jiuhe Palace, and it was very clean, but it may have been because there were no envoys to live in it for a long time, and the cleaning was too clean and it seemed deserted.

But fortunately, the space is spacious enough, there are a lot of flowers and plants on the side of the courtyard, now the weather is cold, the flowers and plants are dead branches, the trees are also bare, only a few plum blossoms have some flower bones to not open the appearance.

Qingruo brought a lot of things arranged, and after seeing the servants and guards in this palace in the palace, he began to transform the activities, did a rough division of labor, and the whole dormitory began to be in full swing.

She is a new master, and there must be some people who complain a little when she instructs people to work as soon as she comes, but well, she has never been short of money, Gong Shoufu and Mrs. Gong stuffed her a lot, plus she has never been stingy, commanding Ruyi Linglong to divide the purse one by one, and the aura of the entire palace instantly became a little hotter.

Because there is no title, everyone in the palace still calls her Miss Gong.

After seven days in the palace, the palace renovation was completed, and a letter of peace was sent to the family, but the emperor did not appear, and no one else appeared.
