Chapter 119: Promoted to Concubine Xu Xian
In addition to the four concubines, although the nine concubines are the second grade, they are also divided into high and low, namely Zhaoyi, Zhaorong, Zhaoyuan, Xiuyi, Xiuyi, Xiuyi, Chongyi, Chongrong, and Chongyuan.
Further down are the twenty-seventh woman, Jieyu nine (for the third grade), nine beauties (for the fourth grade), and nine talented people (for the fifth grade).
This can see the difference between Wu Meier and Xu Hui's grades, three major grades, and more small grades.
And Xu Hui was promoted from Chongrong to a virtuous concubine, spanning one major level and seven small levels, and the speed of promotion was astonishing.
Of course, this is not the fastest either. You must know that Xu Hui was also a talented person when he first entered the palace, and the triple jump promotion to one of the nine concubines was even more jaw-dropping.
Even so, Xu Hui was stunned by this sudden promotion. It wasn't until the eunuch congratulated her that she reacted and reluctantly gave a half-salute to thank the emperor.
Xu Qilin was also happy for his sister, and when the eunuch finished announcing the decree and turned to leave, he followed a few steps, thanked the eunuch, and stuffed the eunuch with three silver tickets without a trace.
That's right, you can take out real money silver tickets in Chang'an Qianzhuang. Xu Qilin has one hundred and eighty yuan on his body, all of which are ten yuan, and it is really light to carry.
And this kind of small-denomination silver ticket has gradually begun to become popular in Chang'an. First of all, the son of a wealthy family, for the sake of convenience, the acceptance of silver tickets is limited to high-end places such as big hotels and green buildings.
Paper money will not be approved for issuance for the time being, and Xu Qilin is also a roundabout strategy, using time to make people slowly agree with this transaction method. Silver stamps are also printed on paper, which has many similarities with paper money.
Therefore, in time, even if paper money will not be publicly issued by the imperial court, silver bills will also play the function of currency.
Obviously, the eunuch is knowledgeable, and when he received it in his hand, his eyes narrowed into a slit with a smile, and he even said, "Thank you, Xu Cheng." ”
In the early Tang Dynasty, eunuchs had little status. Although some of them are of higher rank, they do not dare to be arrogant, and they are all very humble.
Even, during the reign of His Majesty Li Er, there was not a single eunuch's name in the annals of history.
Xu Qilin doesn't care about this little money, the eunuch is well-informed in the palace, and he handed it over for his sister, which should be more beneficial than disadvantageous.
When I returned to Sister A's side, I saw Xu Hui with a happy smile on her face. There is a baby in the belly, and the name is promoted, which is a double happiness.
No matter how reserved and indifferent Xu Hui is, when there are no outsiders, he will also show heartfelt joy and anger.
"You go down first." Xu Qilin waved his hand and waved away the palace people who also had a happy face.
The tide rises and the boat rises, from full to virtuous concubines, even if there is no change in the treatment of these palace people, other palace people will still look at it, and they will also feel that their status has also improved.
Xu Hui saw the palace people retreating, and said to Xu Qilin with a smile: "Sister I'm afraid that she was touched by the light of her younger brother, so she suddenly got this promotion, right?" ”
Xu Qilin smiled, did not deny it, and said: "It's just a matter of one sentence." Saving someone's life is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter! No, good news comes quickly, doesn't it? ”
Xu Hui really knew about Xu Qilin's visit to the court today, and when he heard him say that he saved people's lives, he guessed some truths. The people who want to be killed now are naturally the sinners who participated in Li Chengqian's rebellion.
But among these sinners, it seems that there is no friendship with Xu Qilin. And the one who can make His Majesty Li Er reward his merits seems to have nothing else except Li Chengqian.
It's just that, in Xu Hui's view, saving Li Chengqian's life is a risk. Who knows what His Majesty Li Er thinks, Li You, the king of Qi, has already died, and Li Chengqian can be disposed of separately?
If you say the wrong thing, this is a major matter involving the secrets of the royal family, and if you don't get it right, you will ruin your future.
This is also the reason why His Majesty Li Er handed over how to deal with Li Chengqian to the court for discussion, and the ministers did not dare to answer.
In officialdom, especially in front of the emperor, there is a wise saying that many people follow and do. This famous saying is "ten thousand words, it is better to be silent".
According to the common saying of the common people, it is "too much to say, you must lose". But if the common people say the wrong thing, they will offend the individual at most. But in front of the emperor, it is common for him to lose his official position and resign.
Therefore, Xu Hui lowered his eyelids and thought about it, and said slowly: "Why is the little brother like this? Sister A's status is not low, but she really doesn't care much about being promoted to the concubine position. ”
Xu Qilin said: "This is what Sister deserves, and the younger brother is just pushing the boat down the river to help." ”
After a pause, he continued: "What's more, this is what His Majesty wants the younger brother to do, where is the risk?" ”
Xu Hui bowed his head slightly and said: "The junior brother's job quality is not low, Your Majesty must leave room for reward, so he will be transferred to Sister A." ”
Saying that, Xu Hui laughed, "Since it is ordered by His Majesty, then it will be fine." No wonder you go to court, it turns out that there is an arrangement! ”
"Cooperate with Your Majesty to act." Xu Qilin also smiled easily, "This credit is easy to come by, how can you not grab it?" ”
Xu Hui was about to continue talking, when he saw his son coming over, he greeted him with a smile and stopped talking about it.
"In the future, I will be called Concubine Xu Xian, this virtuous word, but my father can see it accurately." The son-in-law came to congratulate, his expression was very sincere, in the palace, among the concubines of his father, only Xu Hui was close to her.
Xu Qilin raised his eyebrows and teased: "Guishu Dexian, Sister occupies any word, this virtuous word is not complete." ”
Xu Hui glanced at his younger brother and said angrily: "My family praises me like this, which makes people laugh." ”
The son blinked and smiled, "Although this is the case, it is not realistic. There are regulations in the palace, and it is very rare for Xu Chongrong to be promoted to the throne. ”
Xu Qilin pouted secretly, what kind of palace rule is not the emperor's words. After all, this is the emperor's family matter, and even if the ministers oppose it, they will not be too tough.
For example, the scumbag Li Zhi set up a single concubine position for Wu Meier, called Concubine Chen.
And Sister A is called Concubine Xu Xian in the history books, although it is the same as now, but it was posthumously sealed, so it is naturally not the same.
No matter what kind of considerations His Majesty Li Er had, he did not let Xu Hui directly take the position of Concubine Yin De, but was promoted to Concubine De by Yan Xian, and Concubine Xu Hui was promoted to Concubine Xian. But this has become a reality, very different from history.
Thinking of Sister A's pregnancy again, Xu Qilin is even more convinced that he has changed history. If there is more definite evidence, Li Sipang is going to become the crown prince, isn't that enough?
Now that history has changed, Xu Qilin knows that many things will be out of his judgment. This is also a drawback, which makes him afraid to judge what will happen in the future too accurately.
At this time, Li Sipang had been summoned to the palace to meet the last test in front of His Majesty Li Er.
As soon as Li Chengqian was disposed of at the court meeting, His Majesty Li Er announced that Li Sipang was summoned, and he didn't want to delay time and let him get any news.
