Chapter 38 Madam, the emperor wants to fill in the newcomer
"When I prepare to go to court tomorrow morning, I will announce the news of the princess being found. No, I still have to give her a title, after all, she is the princess I lost and recovered. The emperor muttered.
"Your Majesty, it's okay when you announce it, and you should think about this title." Yu'er saw that His Majesty was a little overwhelmed, and felt very funny.
The emperor called Father-in-law Shun to come in and ordered: "Let people clean up the Yongcui Palace, I have thought of a new name for the Yongcui Palace, Ningxi Palace." You ask people to speed things up, and it's best to be able to move in in three or four days. ”
"Yes." Gonggong Shun was not in the imperial study just now, so he didn't know that His Majesty had found Murong Xi, and thought that a new master was going to be added to the palace. After all, His Royal Highness the Hades King had just brought a girl into the imperial study.
After Father-in-law Shun went out, he didn't dare to slack off for a moment, and ordered someone to handle the matter quickly.
Feng Mingye couldn't help but ask in the carriage, "Why didn't you discuss it in advance?" ”
Murong Xi naturally knew that Feng Mingye was referring to her disguise.
Murong Xi rolled his eyes and said in his heart: Why do you want to tell you?
However, he said: "Your Highness the Hades, I also decided temporarily. ”
So, do you mean to say that it didn't come and said yes? Can't you just reveal it on the carriage?
"Niangniang, when Lian'er came back just now, I happened to see Father-in-law Shun ordering someone to clean Yongcui Palace, and said, and said that His Majesty didn't like the name of Yongcui Palace, so he specially changed it to Ningxi Palace. Moreover, Father-in-law Shun means that there may be a new master in the palace. Mama Yan said in a low voice.
"What? Are you saying that the emperor ordered his father-in-law to personally urge the palace people to clean up the Yongcui Palace? Emperor Yuan said suspiciously.
"Yes, after His Royal Highness the Hades left the imperial study, the emperor instructed Gonggong Shun to supervise it personally. By the way, the girl with the veil also left the imperial study with His Royal Highness the Hades, and it seemed that she had returned to the Hades Palace. Mama Yan suddenly remembered and said.
"Left? Shouldn't it be arranged in other palaces first? Yongcui Hall is cleaned up and just lives in it, why bother to let the Hades King take him out of the palace? Things don't seem to be that simple, could it be that His Majesty really took a fancy to the girl brought by the Hades King this time? Don't want to just stay in the palace casually and let her enter the palace beautifully? Emperor Yuan said with some uneasiness in her heart.
"Niangniang, the old slave will send someone to find out about this matter, but you know that Father-in-law Shun has always been very strict-mouthed, so he can only start from those palace people." Mama Yan said slowly.
"I don't worry about you doing things, what I'm worried about is not which girl the emperor has taken a fancy to, even if a yellow-haired girl is favored, she will not cross the palace, and the palace will allow her to jump for a few days. But what if things don't go the way we think...... That's it, Mama Yan, you let Huan'er in, there is something to tell her in this palace. Emperor Yuan Guifei smiled slightly, and said with a chill in her smile.
"Yes." Yan Mama didn't dare to delay, so she called Huan'er and asked her to go in quickly, and Niangniang had something to tell her.
"Mother, but what do you command?" Huan'er asked suspiciously.
"You take my waist card out of the palace and go to the Prime Minister's Mansion. told his wife that a newcomer had recently entered the palace in the palace, and asked her to pay more attention outside. That woman lives in Hades' mansion, so be careful. Also, ask the people of the Lan family if they have already arrived in the capital. Let his daughter get ready, and take her into the palace when the Hundred Flowers Banquet will be held in a few days. After Emperor Yuan's concubine gave a simple order, she asked Huan'er to go out of the palace with the waist card.
Huan'er didn't delay for a moment, and went directly to the Prime Minister's Mansion after leaving the palace. When the prime minister's subordinates guarding the door saw that it was the concubine Niangniang, the big palace maid next to them hurriedly invited her in and asked her to wait in the hall first.
After the servants went to inform the Prime Minister's wife, the Prime Minister's wife asked her to be taken to the main courtyard to speak.
"What's important, why did Huan'er come here in person." The Prime Minister's wife asked suspiciously, apparently she hadn't heard anything about the outside.
"Madam, Niang Niang has something important to order, and Huan'er doesn't dare to delay. Here's the thing, today His Royal Highness the Hades King brought a girl into the palace, and after the emperor summoned him, he asked Gonggong Xu to clean up the Yongcui Hall as soon as possible, and the emperor also personally changed the name of the Yongcui Palace. Now it is called Ningxi Palace. Niangniang suspects that it is a newcomer sent to the palace by His Royal Highness the Hades, so I want you to find a way to find out. Because this woman did not live in the palace, but was taken out by His Royal Highness the Hades, it seems that she is still living in the Hades Palace. "Huan'er has said simple things over and over again.
"You said it was the one sent to the palace by the Hades? It's really not easy, when did Hades do this? You reassure the mother, Mrs. Ben will send someone to investigate as soon as possible. It's just that you also know that you can't enter the Hades Mansion, so you can only explore outside. The Prime Minister's wife said with some doubts.
"Also, Niangniang asked the slave maid to ask if the people of your Lan family have come to the capital, let them adjust, and then let the daughter of the Lan family prepare well, and in a few days the Hundred Flowers Banquet Niangniang will find a way to send her a post, so that she can gather in the palace during the Hundred Flowers Banquet." Huan'er saw the second thing and told the prime minister's wife.
"Well, I'm relieved about this, I'll prepare for her now, find a grandmother to teach her some etiquette for entering the palace, and then let someone make a few clothes for her, so that she can rest assured that she will not lose face." The Prime Minister's wife replied.
"It's good that the matter has arrived, Huan'er can't stay for a long time, so I'll go back to the palace." After Huan'er finished speaking, he left the Prime Minister's Mansion, and then returned to the palace and went to the Yuan Emperor's concubine.
"Madam, what happened in the palace again?" The prime minister entered the house and saw the prime minister's wife sitting there as if she had something on her mind.
"There's nothing, the emperor wants to fill in the newcomer, and the mother is a little worried that things are not simple." The Prime Minister's wife said simply.
"Huh? Whose daughter, why haven't I heard? The Prime Minister asked.
"Alas, it was the Hades who personally sent it to the palace today, and the strangest thing is that the emperor did not leave this woman, but let the Hades bring it back first. However, the emperor attached great importance to this woman, and actually changed the name of Yongcui Palace, and asked Gonggong Shun to personally supervise the palace people to clean it up as soon as possible. Therefore, Niangniang means that the emperor is very attentive to this woman and loves her appearance very much. Mrs. Prime Minister said slowly.
"The palace sent someone to send you a message?" The Prime Minister asked, changing his face.
"Well, Huan'er came over and said it in person." The Prime Minister's wife replied.
"She is already an imperial concubine, what is there to be dissatisfied. How? Want you to get rid of that woman after you find out? It's not a small amount of courage! The Prime Minister said with some dissatisfaction. Because he didn't like this calculating daughter very much since he was a child, he didn't like this daughter either. It would be nice if my little daughter was still here.
"I know you don't like her, but you're our daughter, aren't you? You said that so many years have passed, and the emperor has only crowned an imperial concubine, and he has managed the harem for so many years, why can't he give her the status of a queen. Mrs. Prime Minister said a little unhappily.
"Hugh is talking nonsense! If Your Majesty hears this, will you be able to stay here? Why didn't the emperor give her the title of queen, don't you know. Besides, I wouldn't have known about her ambitions. I don't expect anything from my daughter, but I just want you to be safe, and if you can see her, tell her to let her be at peace. The Prime Minister said fiercely.
"You, why did I forget, you never forgot Jin'er. Growing up, you only have one daughter in your heart, right? Could it be that this one in the palace is not your own? The Prime Minister's wife asked aggressively.
"I'll go to the study, you calm down." The Prime Minister didn't bother to debate with her, so he turned around and went to the study.
"Hmph, you don't let me take care of it, I want to take care of it." The Prime Minister's wife narrowed her eyes and said angrily.
The Prime Minister did not go to the study to handle official business, but secretly took out a picture scroll on the other side of the bookshelf. When he opened it, it was actually a portrait of the queen, and he looked at the portrait quietly.
It's him who is sorry for Jin'er, and he's sorry for Jin'er's mother. Jin'er's mother and he are childhood sweethearts, and he married his current wife by mistake, not because he didn't want to refuse, but because he didn't dare to refuse.
Because the prime minister's wife's father was his mentor, he was not a prime minister back then, but a small squire. The teacher was very kind to him and asked him to take good care of the prime minister's wife, so he reluctantly married the prime minister's wife, and then he went to Suzhou to find Jin'er's mother. It's a pity that she was sick in bed soon after giving birth to Jin'er, and died a year later, leaving Jin'er to be taken care of by the Prime Minister's wife. He saw that Jin'er and Xin'er got along very well, and he was relieved. Xin'er is the name of the Yuan Emperor's concubine.
It's a pity that he was ashamed of Jin'er's mother and couldn't take care of Jin'er, Jin'er went before she was twenty years old, and what made him even more guilty was that Jin'er's child was still missing.
When Jin'er was absent for about a year, he accidentally heard the conversation between Xin'er and the Prime Minister's wife, and he realized that it was not only the Prime Minister's wife who forced him to ask the emperor to marry his concubine as a side concubine, but even Xin'er was so good to Jin'er that she was just pretending, and there was no trace of true feelings. After hearing these words, he immediately beat his chest and regretted it. thinks about how wrong he did back then, and in order to let Xin'er marry the emperor, he went to the palace to ask the emperor for permission. and Jin'er, if it weren't for Jin'er's kindness, how could he have lost his life.
In order to gain a foothold in the harem over the years, how many concubines have been assassinated, there are not many concubines in the palace, and Xin'er has actually done a lot of tricks behind her back in order to be able to become the queen smoothly. Fifteen years have passed, and the emperor has never been able to let go of Jin'er, how could he let her be the queen. Now that the king of Hades has sent a woman to the palace, she doesn't know if it's groundless, and she has begun to plan how to harm people again. His daughter is so vicious, who is with her?
The Prime Minister sat on his chair tiredly, staring blankly at the portrait without saying a word.
