But it was said that Yuan Chun was taken aback by Emperor Zhengqing's words, and immediately got up and knelt down and said: "Why did the emperor say this, the concubine's family has been favored by the emperor, and even the concubine has been named a concubine by the emperor because of this, and the honor is no longer within the reach of others."

The concubines are so favored by the emperor, and their gratitude cannot be reciprocated for a lifetime, so how can they have such non-centrific thoughts. ”

"Don't be nervous, concubine, I just said it casually."

Emperor Zhengqing helped Yuanchun up.

"Since the concubine was named a noble concubine by the emperor, she has been hanging her heart day and night, afraid that she is not knowledgeable enough, she will lose the face of the royal family, and she will also live up to the emperor's favor for the concubine. Therefore, the Operations Department pays special attention to caution and does not dare to neglect or exceed the rules.

The concubines are already hesitant about this, how can they dare to covet the position of the queen? The concubines are self-aware, whether it is talent, appearance or cultivation, they are not comparable to the former queen, so they naturally dare not think about it. ”

Yuan Chun told the story.

Hearing Yuanchun mention the first queen, Emperor Zhengqing's eyes involuntarily revealed a touch of remembrance.

How can everyone in the world be compared to her?

"The concubine is too modest."

Emperor Zhengqing said and sat back in his place and picked up Jia Qing's strange letter.

Because he found that although he had seen Jia Qing's payment just now, there was still a page behind it, and he didn't know what to write.

After reading it, Emperor Zhengqing's face was pensive, and then he got up and said to Yuan Chun: "I still have something to deal with, I'll come to see you later." ”

With that, he left.

"Congratulations to the emperor......"

Sending Emperor Zhengqing out of the door, Yuan Chun stroked his sideburns and looked at him in reverie.

The second brother is really talented. Looking at today's situation, it is exactly the same as he predicted.

Jia Qing handed over to Yuan Chun two letters, one was naturally seen by Emperor Zhengqing, and the other was for her. And the letter to her was much longer.

Although she hadn't read the content of Emperor Zhengqing's letter, in fact, Jia Qing had already told her about it.

Therefore, today she can step on all the key points like this, and they are all just right.

She knew that Lin Ruhai did not object to Jia Qing marrying Daiyu, so she asked Emperor Zhengqing to ask Lin Ruhai what he meant. She knew that Jia Qing was going to fund the imperial court, no, to be precise, it was to fund Emperor Zhengqing with one million stone grains, and the purpose was definitely not just to marry Daiyu as his wife.

That's a million stone grain, according to the current rate of rising grain prices, if Jia Qing takes it all out and sells it to the traders, he can make millions of taels of silver safely.

And that's just its value.

At a time when it was difficult for the imperial court to raise food, Jia Qing's gust of wind was really wonderful. Didn't you see Emperor Zhengqing a little excited?

Such a big interest is thrown out, and there is only one interest worthy of Jia Qing's struggle for abandoning his family and business, and even being in debt.

Posterior.

That's right, only the benefit of helping Yuanchun ascend to the back position is worth it.

If this million stone grain is smashed down, what will other harem concubines compete with Yuan Chun?

It can be said that the simple point is to bribe the emperor, reflecting the irreplaceable value of Yuanchun, so that Emperor Zhengqing had to reward her.

Although it is said that the harem does not interfere in politics, where can the former dynasty and the harem really be completely separated?

Why does the emperor have so many concubines in three palaces and six courts, and he also wants batches of show girls to be recruited into the palace? Is it really just that the emperor is?

Not really.

In the harem, except for the folk show girls, most of the concubines with status are the daughters of the big families. Could it be that the women of these big families are more beautiful than the women of the people?

Naturally not.

In fact, the reason why there are so many noble women in the harem is also a means for the emperor to envelop and appease his courtiers.

Reward and punishment are the most basic means of subordination. Courtiers should naturally be rewarded for their merits, but courtiers are rewarded too much, which will inevitably make them powerless and difficult to govern. For example, some ministers who have no reward will threaten the imperial power if they reward them again.

What to do at this time?

Naturally, we should also be rewarded! If it is not appropriate to reward him, then reward his son and his people......

But whoever rewards him is not as important as rewarding his daughter to enter the palace and be an imperial concubine. In this way, you will be rewarded with a reward, and the reward will still be your own woman, how cost-effective!

If you make more meritorious service, you will be rewarded again, anyway, your own woman......

This is also one of the main purposes of the establishment of the Three Palaces and Six Courts.

Jia Qing has made such a great achievement, it is impossible for Emperor Zhengqing not to consider Liyuanchun as the queen.

Therefore, Jia Qingcai handed the letter to Emperor Zhengqing through Yuanchun, and what topics such as "brother-in-law" and "brother-in-law" were mentioned in the letter, all of which were vaguely reminding Emperor Zhengqing?

Even in Yuan Chun's opinion, the reason why Jia Qing wanted to ask for marriage was also for her. After all, if Jia Qing offered a million stone of grain and asked for nothing else, it would be easy for Emperor Zhengqing to suspect his intentions, and it might also backfire.

That's why Jia Qing thought of such a reason that made Emperor Zhengqing difficult (Jia Qing: Sister, you really think too much...... ）。

If Emperor Zhengqing didn't agree, it would naturally be easier to think of Liyuanchun as the queen's move.

If he agreed, it would be impossible for such a small thing to offset Jia Qing's credit, and in fact, it was also reminding Emperor Zhengqing all the time that after establishing Yuanchun, there were many benefits to having such a brother-in-law as Jia Qing......

Yuan Chun remembered what Jia Qing said to him when he went home to save his relatives that year: Sister, you are not alone, behind you, there is the Jia family, and the younger brother. The younger brother has no other skills, and he still has a heart to love his sister, if anyone dares to embarrass his sister, even if the younger brother tries all the costs, he will never let him have a good time.

Yuan Chun walked back to the house with moist eyes, and said in his heart:

It's nice to have such a younger brother......

……

Jia Rong Courtyard of Ningguo Mansion.

Ling'er looked at the mirror applique yellow, and suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in her stomach, and she couldn't help but vomit.

Xiaolan had just come back from collecting her clothes, and when she saw this, she hurriedly came over to smooth her back.

"Why did you vomit?"

"It's okay, I just feel a little uncomfortable in my stomach......"

Ling'er didn't care much.

Xiaolan frowned, and suddenly saw that the plate of strawberries on the high stool next to her had bottomed out.

"Grandma, you shouldn't be happy, right?" Xiaolan said with wide eyes.

"Nonsense......"

Ling'er said this in her mouth, but she couldn't help but panic in her heart.

"What nonsense, you didn't love fruit so much before, and now you've eaten all the strawberries on a plate. I was nauseated just now, this must be pregnant, congratulations to my aunt, I finally got what I wanted. ”

Xiaolan said happily.

She knows that Ling'er has not yet had sex with Jia Rong, if she is pregnant, does she need to ask who the child is?

"That damn Dr. Hu Yong, even if he is not good at medicine, he cheated us out of so much money."

Xiaolan was a little angry. They secretly went to see Dr. Hu twice, and both times he told them that his aunt was not pregnant. also made up a basket of nonsense and tricked them into buying a bunch of medicines to come back.

But Lan soon realizes that something is wrong. Why is there no joy on my aunt's face, doesn't she want children so much?

Ling'er touched her belly, her brow sinking deeper and deeper.

Suddenly stood up, walked to the side of the cabinet and rummaged through the cabinets.

"Auntie, what are you looking for?" Xiaolan asked.

Ling'er ignored her, and finally found a clean box with loose saffron inside. Ling'er grabbed a handful and stuffed it into her mouth......

"Are you crazy?"

Xiaolan was shocked and hurriedly went over to snatch the things away.

"It's possible to have an abortion if you eat safflower indiscriminately, don't you know it?"

"Give me ......"

"Don't give it, what's wrong with you, auntie, haven't you always liked the second master and want to give him a child? Now it may be successful, if so, this is the second master's first child, how can you hurt him? Xiaolan glared at Ling'er and said.

A look of pain flashed on Ling'er's face, and she sat on the bed dejectedly.

"You don't understand, he can't come at this time, and we'll be all done when he comes. Everything is different from what was envisioned before. It's my fault, it's my lack of consideration, it's me who hurt him......"

Ling'er hugged her head and cried.

Xiaolan was puzzled, she said, "Why is it different, isn't this the same as what you planned at the time?" ”

Ling'er shook her head: "No, it's different. At that time, I thought that even if he didn't like me anymore, as long as I was pregnant with his child, for the sake of the child, he wouldn't mind having one more woman for my sake.

However, I didn't expect him to leave the capital and go to the front line of the border pass......

He's not at home, and it's all different.

In the past, I only knew that with his ability and means, no matter how special my identity was, it would be easy for him to keep his child.

However, I didn't expect that I would not find him in the first place......

If he wasn't there, I wouldn't be able to keep this kid on my own!

In this family, no one can accommodate this child except me and him!

Once it is known, my child and I can only die......"

Xiaolan realized at this time that this was the case.

Oh, yes. The second master is not at home, if the house knows that the aunt and grandmother have fornicated with someone and is pregnant with a child, they will definitely not be able to get around the aunt, and even the child in her belly will be difficult to live.

Because Ning Guofu absolutely cannot tolerate such a woman.

But can my aunt tell that she is pregnant with the second master's child? No, it was a big scandal right away, in order to cover up such a scandal, even Jia's mother had to take action and dispose of their mother and son.

Don't think that Jia Mu and the others will be merciful because she is pregnant with the blood of the Jia family.

The reputation of the Jia family can't be ruined on them, and Jia Qing's reputation can't be ruined on their mother and son!

For these two points, it is impossible for Jia Mu and the others to let either of their mother and son survive.

"Grandma, if we don't tell Wang Shun that he is the second master's henchman, he will definitely not betray the second master. We told him to go to the border to find the second master and tell him the news, and the second master will definitely rush back to save his aunt and grandmother at that time......"

Xiaolan anxiously suggested.

She couldn't bear to watch the child that their grandmother had so hard to ask for be killed by her own hands.

"It's too late......"

Ling'er laughed miserably. Not to mention how far the border pass is from Beijing, and not to say whether Wang Shun can agree to help her, even if Wang Shun really helps him go to the border pass, he can successfully find Jia Qing, and it is too late in time.

Moreover, she is not sure whether Jia Qing will leave the major matter of the border pass and rush back to save their mother and son......

"That's it, just be ruthless for your mother, just because you've never been to this world once......" Ling'er stroked her stomach and wanted to snatch the red flower again.

"No, there must be another way! Perhaps, in fact, Grandma, you are not pregnant at all, I guessed wrong. Xiaolan hugged the box in her arms.

She didn't want to, if she guessed wrong, why didn't she let Ling'er eat safflower?

Ling'er looked at Xiaolan, a little distracted. Yes, even Xiaolan can't bear it, how can she, a mother, bear it?

In fact, with Ling'er's city, she knew that there was no other way, but that was definitely something she didn't want to do. In comparison, it is better to beat the child out, clean it up, and return everything to the original point.

Of course, it would be better if it was just a false alarm.
