Qiu Xin knew that his master's heart must be magnificent at the moment, but he couldn't reveal much in front of the four concubines.

"The emperor has arrived—"

Everyone stood up one after another, and when they saw the bright yellow of the red plum and white snow, they knelt down one after another according to their undulating moods.

"See the emperor, long live my emperor, long live long live."

"Get up."

"Your Majesty."

Jiakangdi helped the concubine, and after the two sat down hand in hand, everyone sat down one after another, and the show girls stared at the hands of the two holding each other with burning eyes.

The four concubines have been accustomed to it for so many years, but habit is one thing, acceptance is another, the four concubines drink tea and drink tea, eat dim sum and eat dim sum, no matter how uncomfortable they are, their faces are quiet and peaceful.

"Why does the emperor have time to hang out in the plum garden today?"

Jiang Ronghua took out his hand, personally poured tea and brought it to Jiakangdi, and watched him take a sip before asking.

"I went to Fengwu Palace to visit the queen, and the queen said that you were tired to host this plum banquet for her, and I was worried that you were cold, so I urged me to come and see."

Emperor Jia Kang knew that the three girls of the Tong family entered the palace today, because they still had some concerns in their hearts, and they didn't want the concubine to be emotional, so they deliberately stayed in the imperial study and approved the morning recital, refused the request of Xirui Palace to have breakfast together, and even said that they wanted to go to Fengwu Palace to accompany the queen, but they didn't expect to come to this plum garden in the end.

"The queen's mother is the world, she is really tolerant, and the concubine's sister and the queen's mother are fortunate to be close friends in the boudoir, and I think I always miss the kindness of the mother, right?"

Concubine Hui put down the half-bitten snack, looking touching.

After entering the palace for so many years, it is not that she has no idea to shake the relationship between the queen and the concubine, on the contrary, the four concubines have tried their best and are helpless.

The queen has been ill for a long time, occupying the position of the queen is nothing, originally the palace affairs were handled by the four concubines of virtue and virtue and Shuhui, once the concubine gained power, Emperor Jiakang took back the power to the concubine, how could the four concubines endure.

They all have children, but they lost to a poor woman who was named a concubine with only one eighth princess, which was a resounding slap in the face for the four concubines.

No matter how unwilling she is to work hard over the years, she can only be helpless, even if the eighth princess dies of illness, the status of the concubine is unbreakable with the blessing of Emperor Jiakang and the queen prince.

In the past three years, the concubine's body has been good and bad, and it has not delayed people to control the harem, but there will be some omissions, it can be said that these three years are the three years that the four concubines have lived a relatively relaxed and comfortable three years, and now seeing that the concubine is fine, the four concubines are ready to move again.

"What Sister Hui said is that the queen mother and I have been friends for many years, I miss the kindness of the queen mother, and Concubine Hui should always be grateful, otherwise the prince will not make such a low-level mistake, and the emperor will be very angry."

"You ......"

"Sister Guifei taught me that we should all be grateful for the kindness of the queen."

Concubine De stopped Concubine Hui from losing her mind, facing the concubine, the four concubines were faintly in a camp, at least the thoughtfulness of face could still be done.

Jia Conti glanced at the few people who were fighting on the edge, and finally set his eyes on the three people who were standing.

"These are ......"

"If you go back to the emperor, these three people are from the mansion of Lord Tong of Changchun Prefecture." Concubine Xian spoke at the right time, glanced at Shi Shi, who was hanging down her lower abdomen, and said with a smile, "A few days ago, Chen'er's family found out that she was pregnant, and the concubine thought that the candidate for Chen'er's side concubine this time would let Shi come to palm her eyes, and the emperor thought it was good?" ”

"Really? That's really good news, come on, the Three Princes' Mansion is rewarded. ”

Emperor Jiakang's heirs are vigorous, but it is a little difficult to reach the grandchildren, the married eldest prince, the second prince and the third prince have no sons-in-law, the eldest prince has a daughter-in-law, and now the three princes' mansions also have good news, whether it is male or female, it is a thing worth being happy about.

Shi and Concubine Xian stood up to salute and thank him, and Emperor Jiakang was in a good mood and raised his hand again and again.

Shi's face was full of glory and stroked the still flat lower abdomen, and sat back on the seat with his waist in a hurry, Concubine Xian couldn't hide her eagerly staring at Shi's stomach, Concubine De's eyes were full of envy and jealousy, looked at Jia Kangdi, and answered with a smile.

"Sister Xian Concubine is so blessed, which is like the Second Prince's Mansion, there is no good news now, today the palace can get the blessing of the Shi family, and the emperor can choose a few good side concubines for Pu'er this time."

"That's nature, Pu'er is also my son, and I care about it."

"The concubine thanked the emperor for Pu'er, and didn't hide it from the emperor, the concubine thinks that this Miss Tong Zhong Lingyu is beautiful, and the concubine likes it very much......"

Concubine Xian didn't expect Concubine De to stick a horizontal stick, and her face immediately changed, but seeing that Shi didn't react, she held back, and Emperor Jia Kangdi suddenly interrupted Concubine De's words.

"Governor of Changchun Prefecture? Is it the champion of the thirteenth year of Yuan Ding, Tong Huaiyuan? ”

"The emperor has a good memory, exactly."

"I remember that Tong Huaiyuan has been governing Changchun Mansion for many years, and he has already entered Beijing? The official performance appraisal can be handed in, why don't I have an impression? ”

The second half of the sentence was asking Li Zhong, looking at Emperor Jiakang's slanted eyes, Li Zhong's heart trembled, and he hurriedly bowed down to answer.

"If you go back to the emperor, the officials will ...... Yesterday, the performance appraisals of the major released officials were submitted, and the emperor was already working hard day and night on state affairs, so the old slave did not remind the emperor that the old slave was guilty and asked the emperor to punish him. ”

Tong Qingyan lowered her head and rolled her eyes silently, sure enough, whether it was the emperor or the director of the company, as long as he was a leader, his ability to shake the pot was first-class.

"Get up, be vigilant in the future."

"Your Majesty."

Jiang Ronghua glanced at the two of them who were singing and harmonizing, reached out and stroked a few strands of hair on his sideburns, and greeted Tong Qingyan, who had been looking at the ground.

"Come here, kid."

Tong Qingyan lowered her head and took a few steps forward, her clasped hands were grabbed by the concubine, and she raised her eyes in surprise, and saw the concubine's expression of hateful face.

"Your Majesty, look at how innocent this child's eyes are."

Jia Kangdi looked at Tong Qingyan who was full of surprise, and then at the concubine who was firmly holding Tong Qingyan's hands, her eyes were slightly complicated.

"Tong Huaiyuan has made meritorious contributions to the governance of Changchun Mansion over the years, and now that he has been transferred to the capital, I remember that there is still a vacancy in the post of Guanglu Temple, so let him go." Jia Kangdi picked up the teacup, his tone paused, and then his tone became a little lower, "What do you think of my arrangement?" ”

Several people present who had been in high positions for a long time could hear the warning in the emperor's words, although they didn't know what the emperor was warning the concubine, but the four concubines all paid attention to the concubine.

Jiang Ronghua lowered his eyes and looked at his clasped hands, and smiled lightly.

"The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, and the emperor wants to seal the official position of Lord Tong, and the concubines can't control it."

Tong Qingyan looked at such a concubine, felt the hand holding her being forced, and moved uncomfortably, and her hand couldn't be withdrawn.

Time seemed to stand still, Emperor Jiakang didn't speak, the concubine didn't say anything, Tong Qingyan maintained a slightly stiff posture and let the concubine hold her hand.

Finally, the concubine let go of her hand, looked at Tong Qingyan with a slightly sad smile, and turned to Jiakangdi.

"Your Majesty, the concubine loves Tong Qingyan very much, it is like a friend at first sight, Anyang has been gone for three years, and the concubine's heart has been empty for three years. Now the concubine feels that looking at this girl, her heart seems to be not so empty, so the concubine dares to ask the emperor to call the shots and let the concubine accept this girl as a righteous daughter. ”

Tong Qingyan was stunned, Tong Manjiao and the sisters were also stunned, and the four concubines and even those who heard the concubine's words were stunned.

I can understand every word and every sentence, but I don't understand it when it comes together.

Jia Kangdi closed his eyes heavily, and wanted to sigh, but everyone was still waiting to see their reactions, and after a quick weigh-in in their minds, they opened their eyes.

Concubine Xian looked at Tong Qingyan's eyes flashing, this little girl was much more useful than expected.

"Concubine Ai likes it so much, it is also the blessing of this girl, since she wants to recognize her as a righteous daughter, then she must also have a title, and the Ministry of Rites will take the word and seal it as soon as possible."

"Why bother the emperor's Ministry of Rites for this little thing, the concubine thinks it's called the Lord of Yanyang."

When they wanted to recognize Tong Qingyan as a righteous daughter before, all the nobles were so surprised that they couldn't do it, but now when they heard this title, they completely fried the pot.

What kind of shit luck did the Tong family go, a place where Wupin Zhizhou was transferred to the capital and became Guanglu Siqing, although it was an idle errand, but it couldn't stand up to the oil and water and was from the official position of Sanpin, how many people couldn't survive this position for a lifetime.

Tong Qingyan, a girl from the countryside, was even more lucky, she was favored by the concubine, and she was named a township monarch, even if she was a county monarch, but now she was directly crowned a county lord from the first grade? !

Jia Kangdi did not answer, but signaled Li Zhong to continue the tea, and the concubine did not have the slightest intention of backing down, Concubine Hui's eyes wandered between the two, her eyes rolled, and she took the pastry in front of her and handed it to the palace maid beside her.

"Your Majesty, this plate of pastries for the concubines is newly made in the imperial dining room, how about the emperor taste it?"

"Yes, I have a taste, my concubine has a heart."

Tong Qingyan stood beside the concubine with a little embarrassment, and when the afterglow drifted to Song Zhan, she found that the goods were in a daze, and she immediately bit her lip angrily.

Tong Manjiao's sisters are full of noble girls' voices talking about each other, which is nothing more than an encounter in the sour Tong's house, Tong Manjiao is very happy, Tong Manjiao's gaze at Tong Qingyan at this moment is even more complicated.

The county lord, Tong Qingyan is actually going to become the county lord, and she is just an ordinary show girl who was almost named by Concubine De to become the prince's side concubine.

Once the uncle really serves as the secretary of Guanglu Temple, his identity will rise more than a little, even the princess can fight, what is so rare about a prince's side concubine.

Jia Kangdi glanced at the silent concubine, sighed absently, stood up and glanced at the nobles who were sitting in a precarious position and no longer exchanged their heads.

"That's all for today's plum feast, I'm tired, so I'll accompany my concubine back to the Palace of Nourishing Hearts."

Jiang Ronghua stood up with a cold face and took the lead in walking out of the Sifang Pavilion, Jia Kangdi looked at his empty hand, coughed to hide his embarrassment, and followed the concubine.

The four concubines left with their own concerns, and the nobles in and outside the pavilion looked at each other, looking at Tong Qingyan and the three of them, their eyes full of jealousy and inquiry.

Tong Qingyan and the three of them walked at the end of the team as usual, and no one dared to walk with them at this moment, after all, they didn't know what it meant.

Song Zhan walked silently behind Tong Qingyan, looking at the little girl who was five steps away from him, her steps were fast and slow, and her eyes gradually became interested.

Finally around the corner, Tong Qingyan stopped abruptly and stopped Song Zhan.

Putting away the smile in his eyes, and looking at the person who was glaring at him with a puzzled expression, Song Zhan raised his eyes and looked at the large army in the distance, and after confirming that there was no one else around, he took a few steps forward.

"Is there something wrong?"

"I have to ask you this, don't you know that there is a plum banquet in the palace?"

"Yes."

"Then why don't you send me a message?"

"There's nothing to advise, I'm in the palace."

“......”

Tong Qingyan decided that the next time she gave Song Zhan breakfast, she must add hot sauce, the kind that brings tears to her eyes!
