The concubines who have entered the palace can go home to save their relatives, and it is not for nothing in the Chengqi Dynasty, only in the noble and favored concubines such as the noble concubine and the Rong concubine, there is a precedent, such as Yin Lingyuan, who returns to Ning with the position of Jieyu, or the first one.

Jieyu is the fourth product, in the harem, only the concubine above the position is counted as the main position, and she has to be called "Niangniang", and she can have a guard of honor when she travels. Yin Lingyuan returned to Ning, naturally he did not have a distinguished guard of honor, but as the emperor's favorite concubine, there must be appropriate pomp.

Since the Empress Dowager issued an edict and the Emperor agreed, the Internal Affairs Office has been busy.

The chariots and horses used by Guining, the fixed number of attendants, palace maids, and eunuchs, the things used by the concubines, and the things that Yin Lingyuan needs to bring back to his family, the rewards of the emperor and the queen mother, and the rewards of the masters of each palace...... There are also travel hours, return home hours, return to the palace hours, etc., no matter how big or small, everything must be arranged in advance, and there can be no mistakes.

Yinghua Palace was in a hurry, the palace maids and eunuchs came and went, when He Jieyu came in, Li Defu had just retired and left, he came up for the emperor to send a reward, and it was said that he was a son-in-law to his father-in-law.

"Look at the things in your palace, they can't be put down", He Jieyu came in with a spring breeze on her face, holding a long box in her arms, and the palace maid behind her was also holding things in her arms, obviously adding gifts to Yin Lingyuan.

"Sister, please come in." Yin Lingyuan hurriedly welcomed people into the door.

"Can the date of Guining be set?" He Jieyu asked.

"Just three days later, on the tenth day of the third month", Yin Lingyuan replied, she was quite happy when the Queen Mother gave the order, who knew that it would be so troublesome to leave the palace justifiably, and it was better to sneak out quietly with Yu Ze.

"It's really a good day", He Jieyu presented the things, "These ginseng, snow lotus, and ejiao are all tributes from the people below, saying that they are for Yu'er's body, where can his little person afford such a supplement, you have brought them to the second elder." ”

Yin Lingyuan took it with a smile, although she was dissatisfied with Yin's father and stepmother in her heart, but He Jieyu had good intentions, and she would not refuse.

While speaking, Bao Sheng brought refreshments: "The Queen Mother's newly rewarded milk crisp, Jieyu try it." ”

"The dim sum in the Queen Mother's palace is the best, Yu'er thinks about it all day long, I can't say that I have to ask my sister to take some away when I go back." He Jieyu smiled and picked up a piece, laughing and joking while preparing to eat.

It was only a snack that was put to her mouth, and she retched for a while, startling Yin Lingyuan: "What's wrong?" ”

The palace maid hurriedly stepped forward to pat her back, and Yin Lingyuan ordered to renew the tea and pushed it in front of He Jieyu: "But the dim sum is too sweet and tired?" ”

He Jieyu vomited a few times but couldn't spit out anything, poured several sips of tea before barely suppressing the discomfort, and then spoke a little abruptly: "I think so, I've lost my appetite recently, maybe I've eaten something bad." ”

Yin Lingyuan was just about to speak, when he suddenly heard Yu Ze's voice say, "She has Qi Ye's blood breath on her body. ”

Yin Lingyuan was stunned for a moment, and before he could react to what he meant, he took the opportunity to ask: "What bloodline breath." ”

"I'm pregnant." Yu Ze spit out three words calmly, but Yin Lingyuan was shocked: "Really? ”

She shouted out directly, He Jieyu thought she was asking herself, and replied: "That's right, I've always been in good health, and my sister doesn't need to worry." ”

"No, no, I mean...... Let's pass the imperial doctor to take a look. Yin Lingyuan hurriedly said, and without waiting for He Jieyu to speak, he ordered Baosheng to ask for a doctor.

"Where is it so delicate", He Jieyu is used to keeping a low profile, "Maybe it will be fine in a few days." ”

Yin Lingyuan believed in Yu Ze's ability, so he said directly: "Sister didn't think about the possibility of the side? ”

"What is the possibility?" He Jieyu was puzzled.

"My sister has been favored for a long time, and she is pregnant." Yin Lingyuan said.

"Huh? No...... No way. He Jieyu didn't know whether to be surprised or happy for a while, she hadn't thought about it, but after Yin Lingyuan said this, there was really this possibility.

"Yes or no, we'll know when the Imperial Doctor comes." Yin Lingyuan patted her soothingly.

The doctor came to check the pulse, and he Jieyu was indeed pregnant.

As soon as the news came out, it was even more shocking to the Sixth Palace than Yin Lingyuan's grace and return.

There has been no new child born in the palace for several years, He Jieyu was pregnant, and she simply became a star holding the moon, the queen mother's reward is needless to say, the queen mother also personally visited He Jieyu in Ruixiang Palace, and sent two henchmen to take care of her diet and daily life.

"Yinghua Palace is really a good place, there is a Yu Jieyu, you can get the grace to return to Ning with the position of just Jieyu, this Hejieyu, she will be pregnant when she sits in the palace, it is really a blessing that others can't ask for." When the palace was in peace, Concubine Rong said sour words as soon as she opened her mouth.

"Sister He is blessed", Concubine Sun smiled kindly, and said to He Jieyu, "There are many taboos in this pregnancy, you can't eat raw and cold, like apricots and almonds, and you can't eat as hot as apricots and almonds, and you have to be more careful in your usual daily life, and now it's been more than a month, let me tell you, I'm pregnant with the princess, and ......."

"Concubine Sun is really worried", Concubine Rong interrupted Concubine Sun lukewarmly, "Don't say that He Jieyu once gave birth to a prince, but she never gave birth, if you take Sun Concubine's scriptures, if you are like Sun Concubine after a lifetime, won't it hurt You Jieyu?" With that, he giggled.

Concubine Sun's face turned blue and white for a while, and she didn't dare to collide with Concubine Rong.

Sun Concubine's name is Sun Zhaoping, her father is the Taifu Siqing, from the third grade, she can be regarded as a prominent family among the concubines, and more importantly, the old lady of the Sun family was the grandmother of the first emperor, and her identity is naturally more different.

After the concubine entered the palace, she had a daughter, but I don't know if she was too much when she was pregnant, and she was blessed after pregnancy, and she no longer had the previous posture of a slender daughter, although the emperor did not favor her, but taking into account the princess and her family background, she talked every day, but that's all.

However, Concubine Sun is unwilling to be lonely, and she wants to compete for favor in a different way, but she has neither that condition nor that skill, and she has made a lot of jokes in the harem, and in front of Concubine Rong and Concubine Yi, she is not even an opponent.

"Thank you Sister Sun Concubine", He Jieyu hurriedly played the round, "The imperial doctor also told me like this, and the concubine must be careful to take care of it." ”

"It's best if you think so", the concubine nodded approvingly, "What's the matter with your own body, the most important thing is to be able to give birth to a dragon descendant for the emperor." ”

As soon as these words came out, Concubine Rong's face was a little unsightly, Concubine Yi looked happy, and said with a smile: "What Concubine Niangniang said is very true, Concubine Rong's sister is beautiful and beautiful, and she can't bear the pain of being pregnant and giving birth." ”

"You ......" This time it is Concubine Rong's turn to turn pale and pale, in this harem, who doesn't know that children are the hope of a lifetime, Concubine Rong has been infertile for many years, and she doesn't know how much bitter medicine she has drunk, Concubine Yi's words are really piercing.

"Guifei Niangniang", Concubine Yi said again, "What the concubine said last time, I don't know what happened to taking my mother's little sister into the palace?" ”

"The emperor has given her the position of a lady", the concubine said lightly, "I will be brought into the palace tomorrow." ”

Concubine Yi was overjoyed: "Thank you to the emperor, thank you to the concubine." ”

Yin Lingyuan was speechless, this ancient woman was really wonderful, she took the initiative to find a little wife for her husband, and Concubine Yiyi thought of it, and even took her sister into the palace.

"If you are willing to submit, she doesn't have to be so troublesome," Yu Ze said lightly.

Yin Lingyuan naturally understands that since Concubine Yi lost Li Jieyu, she has been trying to find a new right-hand man, but she can't win herself over, but she came up with such a method.

"Also, her own sister naturally needs to rest assured." Yin Lingyuan said.

The two were talking in their heads, and they listened to the concubine mention her name coldly.

"Speaking of which, Yu Jieyu will return to Ning tomorrow", the concubine asked her.

"Yes", Yin Lingyuan immediately replied, "Tomorrow is the tenth day of the first month of March, and everything is taken care of." As early as the first time she asked for peace, she was almost scolded by the cane when she was distracted, Yin Lingyuan practiced the ability to use two minds, while talking to Yu Ze in her head, she could always pay attention to the movements outside.

The concubine waved her hand, and the subordinate brought a tray, on which were neatly stacked brocade and two bingyu ruyi: "This is the new brocade offered by Jiangnan, you are rare to return to Ningning, tailor clothes for the second child, and this Hetian jade Ruyi, you can have a laugh." ”

Han Lu stepped forward to take it, and Yin Lingyuan hurriedly leaned over to thank him: "Thank you, concubine Niangniang." ”

March 10.

The carriage set off at the same time, and the mighty procession came out of the Shenwu Gate and marched slowly along the main road of the imperial capital. The people on both sides watched on the road, and when Yin Lingkite's frame came closer, they knelt down to say goodbye.

It's not the first time that the people in Dijing have seen such a grand event, just Jieyu can have this honor and favor, but it is even more curious - what kind of character is there in the car curtain.

Yin Lingyuan could only hear the lively sound outside through the thick curtain, but he couldn't see it, scratching his heart and scratching his liver. Helplessly, one with green and one Baosheng left and right, staring at it tightly, even if there is Yu Ze's trick, he can't use it.

There are also several carriages behind, with rewards from the palaces brought out of the palace, at this time, whether it is close or not close, good and evil, for the sake of face, they will take out one or two things to reward.

At about four o'clock in the morning, the Guining frame had arrived at Yin's mansion.

Yin Sheng waited here with his family, and when he saw the frame from a distance, he immediately saluted and knelt to greet him.

Yin Lingyuan helped her green hand to get out of the car, she was also dressed up today, and her red gold and emerald head made her skin like cream, and her appearance was jade.

All the way into the main hall, Yin Sheng, Yin Anlu, and Yin Anyu stayed outside. In the hall, Yu's family, Aunt Lu and Yin Lingyuan's little mothers saluted her, Yin Lingyuan bowed her head, and her own courtesy official called.

"What about my father and second brother?" Yin Lingyuan asked.

"Outsiders are not allowed to enter without a call." The official said.

"It's all a family," Yin Lingyuan said, "Declare it." ”

The ceremonial official sang harmony loudly, and Yin Sheng brought people in, and it was another salute.

Monarchs, ministers, fathers, sons, fathers and sons, after the national ceremony, it is a family ceremony, according to the rules, Yin Lingyuan is going to salute her parents, she got up and only blessed Yin Sheng slightly: "Say hello to my father." ”

"Hurry up, please." Yin Sheng didn't dare to accept the full courtesy, so he hurriedly helped him.

The Yu family next to him waited with a kind and humble smile on his face, but when he saw Yin Lingyuan getting up, he said, "Please also ask your father to lead the way and lead your daughter to the ancestral hall to worship her mother." ”

Yu's smiling face on the side almost collapsed, and he was ashamed for a while and wanted to find a crack in the ground to get into, but he couldn't, so he had to reluctantly hold the corners of his lips to maintain the calmness on his face.

A group of people went to the ancestral hall again, Yin Lingyuan followed Yin Sheng into the inside to worship the deceased mother, Aunt Lu and other concubines were not allowed to enter, looking at the figure of the Yu family standing not far in front, they couldn't help but mutter: "Jieyu is a concubine of the Son of Heaven, and it is right to kneel to give birth to her parents, but she is a stepmother, so there is no such rule, whether to give this dignity or not, it depends on Jieyu's wishes." ”

"Hehe, now it seems that she doesn't have this dignity." One person said, "It's that Sister Lu is blessed to give birth to the second young master, and I just heard Jieyu ask." ”

Aunt Lu smiled, and the corners of her lips were slightly raised.

After sacrificing to the ancestors, the group returned to the main hall, the ceremonial officials and a group of palace people retreated, Yin Sheng personally arranged to entertain these people, and only Baosheng Hanlu was left in the hall to serve closely.

If it is an ordinary family, at this time, the daughter who marries out shares the family with her mother's family, which can be said to be very humane, but when it comes to Yin Lingyuan, she really has nothing to talk about.

However, Yu licked his smiling face and approached Yin Ling's kite: "As soon as I knew that my mother was coming back, your father and I looked forward to it day and night, and the family was very tidy and groomed." ”

"I have a heart", Yin Lingyuan said lightly, signaling to Baosheng, "These are the rewards of the Queen Mother, the concubine and the ladies in the palace." ”

The emperor's rewards had been read out in public earlier, and most of them were for Yin Sheng and Yin Lingyuan's brothers, and the gift list presented by Baosheng was for the women in the house.

"Thank you Queen Mother, thank you for the reward." Yu smiled from ear to ear.

Yin Lingyuan Fu looked at the Lu family again, because she gave birth to a son, she was the only one who was qualified to stay in the inner room, and the rest of the concubines had already retreated together when the ceremonial officials withdrew.

"This pair of silver silk double-buckle jade bracelets is made of high-quality jade, I think it can be compared to my aunt." As the words fell, Han Lu immediately presented a delicate jewelry box, and a pair of high-grade jade bracelets shone brightly.

Lu Shi was simply flattered, and hurriedly took it with both hands: "Xie Jieyu's reward, concubine body, concubine body is really what virtue can you do." ”

Yin Lingyuan smiled: "It's the same family, why should my aunt be polite, I remember when I was a child, my aunt also made me snacks to eat, this care, Lingkite won't not remember." ”

Every time she said a word, Yu's face turned white, where is this reward for the Lu family, it is clearly a slap in the face, and it is also a reminder to the Yu family that she will not forget all kinds of things when she was young.

At this moment, the Yu family just can't wait to go back to the past, slap himself twice, and be as mean as he was back then, but if he treats this stepdaughter better, he will not end up in today's difficult situation.

She wanted to please: "Why don't you see Chuncao come back, can the people who serve around Niangniang be used?" A few days ago, I also discussed with the master, if the green and spring grass are not enough, we ......"

"Why did Madame say that?" Without waiting for Yin Lingyuan to speak, Han Lu cut off the Yu family: "When the master enters the palace, he is a royal person, and the lady says this, do you think that the emperor, the queen mother and the concubine will treat the master harshly?" ”

"No, no, no", Yu waved his hand again and again, defending: "The girl misunderstood, I didn't see Chuncao, I was worried that the next person would not be enough, it was really a good intention, and I didn't dare to think about anything else." ”

In his heart, he secretly scolded the little hooves of Hanlu, who used to be an ant that he pinched casually in the house, but now the chicken and dog have ascended to heaven, and they have such power.

She is an orphan, there is no Lao Tzu Niang to handle, no more than the spring grassland is a child, and her brother's family is on an errand in the house. Yu wanted to put some effort into Chuncao, but he didn't see anyone.

"Spring grass has to be used", Yin Lingyuan said, "I have been promoted to a female official, and I will no longer serve by my side." ”

Yu's eyes flashed, and she secretly thought in her heart, but she didn't know whether this female official was good or not, she didn't know the rules of the palace, and she didn't dare to do anything easily.

Yin Lingyuan ignored her twists and turns, and turned to the Lu family again: "Why don't you see the second brother?" ”

"Waiting outside." Lui said.

"Please come in", Yin Lingyuan said, she also has another purpose for leaving Miyamoto, that is, the Yao family.

After Kang Yiren's matter passed the bright road, Yao Yuanniang was taken to Yin's mansion by Yin Anlu to settle down, and asked a doctor to condition her body, but the injuries on her body were well healed, but her face was helpless.

Yin Anlu came in and told Yao Yuanniang about the situation, and Yin Lingyuan asked Yao Yuanniang to come in as well.

After more than a month, goodbye Yao Yuanniang, she is no longer the old woman of the day, her hair is neatly combed, her clothes are also neat, although the scars on her face are there, but without the sad and fierce look, it is not as scary as that day.

Seeing Yin Lingkite, he knelt down and kowtowed with a puff: "The people's woman Xie Niangniang's great kindness, thank Niangniang's great kindness." ”

"Hurry up, hurry up", Yin Lingyuan hurriedly asked Hanlu and Baosheng to help, "Why does Yuan Niang have to make this big gift, it is the responsibility of the official family to redress grievances for the people, I just passed on a word." ”

Yao Yuanniang was obviously very excited: "Seeing Niangniang that day is really a great virtue that the folk woman has cultivated in three lifetimes, if there is no Niangniang, the folk woman will give up this cheap life, but I am afraid that there will be nowhere to show snow." ”

"No one is noble or cheap, Yuan Niang must not be like this", Yin Lingyuan said, "The Queen Mother also asked you specifically, what do you want to do in the future?" ”

"The revenge has been avenged, Yuan Niang has nothing to ask for, but dragged this crippled body, hoping to see the benefactor and thank her face to face." Yao Yuanniang said, and she wanted to say goodbye.

Yin Lingyuan was helpless, hurriedly shouted, and rewarded the silver again. While talking, there was a word outside, lunch had been arranged, and Yin Lingyuan was invited to move to the back hall to eat.

A large group of people hula and hugged Yin Lingyuan to the backyard, men and women were eight years old at different tables, Yin Lingyuan sat at the main table, accompanied by the Yin family's daughters, and set up another table across the screen, it was Yin Sheng and Yin Anlu and others.

Everyone entered the table according to their identities, Yin Lingyuan's eyes swept away, and he saw a familiar figure, sitting next to Yu's side, who was not there just now, and obviously just appeared.

She was just about to speak, when she heard a person rushing in from outside: "Qi, Second Young Master Qi, then the Yao family committed suicide by throwing himself into a well." ”

"What?" Through the screen, Yin Lingyuan listened to it sincerely, stood up with a bang, didn't care about the etiquette rules, crossed the screen and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"Now, now I have called for help", Xiao Si ran in a hurry, and was still a little wheezing, "It's just that there is more breath and less breath, Lang Zhongzheng is treating it." ”

"I'll take a look." Yin Lingyuan put down a sentence, ignored the obstacles behind him, and walked out quickly.
