Soon after, a holy decree came out of the palace, and Han Hualou, the daughter of Han Yong's family, Shaoqing of Taifu, and Gao Qinhui, the daughter of Gao He's family, a scholar from Zhongshushe, were all elected to the palace. Han Hualou was named Kang Concubine, and Gao Qinhui was named Ning Concubine. The homes of the eunuchs have prepared congratulatory gifts, and they have come to the two mansions in an endless stream to congratulate.

After these two women entered the palace, Yao Heier chose a day and invited Mrs. Han and Mrs. Gao to come to the house for dinner.

The two ladies arrived at the mansion and bowed to Yao Hei'er. Mrs. Han smiled and said, "Thanks to Mrs. Yao Guo mentioning it in front of the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager, Concubine Kang has the opportunity to enter the palace." Before the mother entered the palace, I taught her that she should serve the queen mother well and not have any negligence. ”

Mrs. Gao only smiled silently.

Yao Hei'er brought the two of them into the table and said with a smile, "What is this?" I just said before the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother, or the two mothers are outstanding in appearance, and they can accompany the king. The queen mother now has two more sisters, talking and laughing together in their spare time, and doing their filial piety together in front of the queen mother and the queen mother, so as to live up to the pity of the two old saints. ”

While talking, he ordered someone to put on a banquet, and invited Zhong Cuiling to accompany him, and the four of them ate wine and listened to the play.

Mrs. Han ate a few glasses of wine, and couldn't help but say, "Mrs. Yao Guo, just rest assured, Concubine Kang has entered the palace this time, and she will definitely obey the queen's order." I heard that the virtuous concubine is now extremely favored, and the mother must help the queen to deal with the virtuous concubine together. ”

Yao Hei'er hurriedly said, "What did Mrs. Han say?" The concubines serve the emperor, it is their duty, the emperor likes to go to the palace of which lady a few times, and also follow the emperor's thoughts, where is our turn to talk more? ”

Mrs. Han realized that she had lost her words this time, and said with a smile, "Mrs. Yao Guo is right, I am narrow-minded." ”

Yao Hei'er didn't say much, and pointed to the stage with a smile and said, "This "Weiyang Palace" is an excellent drama, let's listen to the play." So he covered it up.

After eating wine for a while, the two ladies said goodbye and went back, Yao Hei'er Fang and Zhong Cuiling said, "Listen to what Mrs. Han said, such a calm temperament, I am afraid that it will be bad in the future." ”

Zhong Cuiling also shook his head and said, "That's true." My sister didn't recommend the daughter of the Han family to the Empress Dowager, but somehow, her daughter also entered the palace. ”

Yao Hei'er thought for a moment and said, "This is also reasonable. That day, I showed a little meaning, and Mrs. Han was a little anxious. Her lord is also in the officialdom, and he must have found someone to go to the court order, so her daughter was able to enter the palace. When I go back and enter the palace again, I have to explain to Qiong'er and stay away from this concubine, so as not to be affected by her if something happens. ”

As he was talking, a mother-in-law suddenly came over and said with a smile, "Madam, Aunt Jin asks to see you." Since Jin Heng and Yao Pei got engaged, the Yao family changed their name to call him Aunt Jin, and Jin Heng also changed his name to Yao Hei'er, only calling him "mother-in-law".

Yao Hei'er was surprised, "It's getting late this time, what is this kid doing here?" As he spoke, he had to get dressed again and came to the flower hall outside.

Jin Heng was wearing a light blue robe, and he was in the flower hall, turning back and forth with an anxious face, and when he saw Yao Hei'er coming, he hurriedly saluted and said, "Son-in-law Jin Heng, meet your mother-in-law." ”

Yao Hei'er smiled and said, "Why should my uncle be polite and sit down and talk." ”

Jin Heng sat down at the bottom and arched his hand, "Mother-in-law, my son-in-law is here for one thing." I just received a letter from my father, saying that my grandmother was sick and asked my son-in-law to go to Jiyan City and do his filial piety in front of my grandmother's bed. The son-in-law has submitted a leave of absence to the palace, and His Majesty Longen is allowed to give the son-in-law a three-month leave. Therefore, the son-in-law came to bid farewell to his mother-in-law. ”

Yao Hei'er hurriedly said, "What disease did Old Madam Jin have?" Does it matter? ”

Jin Heng frowned and said, "My father's letter said that my grandmother was only occasionally infected with the wind and cold, but if you want to be old, you can't stand the wind and frost." My father also has a letter to present to my mother-in-law—" he said, taking out a letter from his sleeve and handing it over with both hands, "Ask my mother-in-law to read it carefully." ”

Yao Hei'er hurriedly took it, and when she opened it to look at it, the letter was to the effect that because Mrs. Jin was seriously ill and hoped to see her grandson get married, Jin Chong had to take the liberty of imploring Yao Hei'er to send Yao Pei to Jiyan City, and complete the marriage with them while the old lady still understood. In the end, Jin Chong repeatedly apologized, saying that the dowry and the like would be reissued in the future, and he would not dare to be dismissive.

This one...... Yao Hei'er couldn't help but hesitate. If you agree to this matter, it means that Yao Pei will be sent out of the house immediately and go to Jiyan City with Jin Heng.

Looking at Jin Chong's tone, Mrs. Jin's illness must be very serious, if you don't agree to this matter, if Mrs. Jin has a good deal, the marriage of the two children will be postponed. Yao Jiu has already decided on a family affair, if King Ding's side urges him to get married, and Yao Pei has not yet left the cabinet, how can he do a marriage for Yao Jiu?

Furthermore, although Yao Heier likes to beat and scold this second daughter the most on weekdays, she still loves her heart very much after all, which mother doesn't want to see her daughter go out of the cabinet with her own eyes? If Yao Pei is allowed to follow Jin Heng at this time, this marriage will be too simple.

Send someone to see off your relatives? Who in the family can be sent out?

Jin Heng also knew the content of the letter, and at this time, seeing Yao Hei'er hesitating, he knelt down and pleaded, "Mother-in-law, the son-in-law knows, this matter makes the mother-in-law embarrassed, and no one will do this." The son-in-law didn't dare to ask his mother-in-law for permission, but if the mother-in-law was kind and fulfilled his grandmother's thoughts, the son-in-law didn't dare to treat Pei'er lightly; On my father's side, there is no reason to be hasty! The Jin family has been thinking about the benefits of their mother-in-law all their lives. ”

Looking at Jin Heng's earnest face again, Yao Hei'er couldn't bear to refuse, so she had to say, "Uncle, wait a while, wait for me to go in, and discuss with Pei'er, how about you?" ”

Jin Heng was busy and thanked again, "Mother-in-law is very gracious, and the son-in-law has thanked him first." ”

Yao Hei'er had to stand up, turn the screen, come to the backyard, call Yao Pei, and read Jin Chong's letter to her.

Yao Pei squirmed and said, "Mother, how can my daughter be in charge of this matter?" If my mother says yes, it's okay. ”

Yao Hei'er sighed, "If I promise you, you will leave your mother in a blink of an eye, how can you give up your mother?" And Jiyan City is far away, who knows when you will be able to come back? ”

Yao Pei blushed and said, "Mother, when you arrive in Jiyan City, your daughter will write to your old man immediately." Mrs. Jin's condition stabilized, and her daughter rushed back and did her filial piety in front of her mother. ”

Yao Hei'er smiled helplessly and said, "Silly boy! Hearing this, I can't wait. Anyway, the female university is not staying. Mother, I'll pack your luggage for you, and you'll go with Aunt Jin tomorrow. ”

When Jin Heng heard that his mother-in-law agreed, he hurriedly kowtowed a few times in a row, and said with a smile, "Mother-in-law, don't worry, my son-in-law will definitely come back with Pei'er as soon as possible!" The son-in-law has instructed the family to prepare the carriage and horse luggage, and the mother-in-law does not have to worry about it here. ”

Yao Hei'er's nose was sour, she couldn't help but shed tears, and sighed, "Uncle, how do you know my heart as a mother." Rao is no matter how thoughtful you are, after all, I have to prepare it myself, so that I can put my mind at ease. You are anxious now, the sooner you go, the better, you can let our mother and daughter spend one night, get up early tomorrow, and come to pick up Pei'er. ”

Jin Heng agreed again and again and took his leave.
