Chapter 81: Gifts and Gifts

In Dashun, the concubines who have no children and concubines must have a strong maiden family behind them, and the concubines with low status may not necessarily be concubines even if they give birth to the emperor's heir. For example, Xin Concubine, after giving birth to the fourth princess, Emperor Yong'an did not enter her position, one is that Emperor Yong'an is not very happy with Xin Concubine, and the other is that the power of Xin Concubine's foreign dynasty is not strong enough.

Mei Guifei at the time of Emperor Yonghe, she was a concubine when she was pregnant, but she still had the name of the fourth grade Jieyu.

Like Lingxi, she was a concubine as soon as she was pregnant, and her status was so low, and she had no family power in the foreign dynasty, she was definitely the first in the Dashun Dynasty.

On December 22 of the fifth year of Yong'an, Lingxi moved to the Lingyan Hall, the main hall of Yongle Palace.

After the spirit rhino moved to the palace, the palace maids and servants around him also became six from four personal palace maids. Lotus leaf and Qiaozhu naturally became a first-class palace maid, the original third-class palace maid was smoky, Hanyu was promoted to a second-class palace maid, Xia Han Xia Lan was promoted from a rough palace maid to a third-class palace maid, although Xia Qing Xia Tong still hung the name of a rough palace maid, but everything he did, the month examples were the same as Xia Han Xia Lan, and the difference was made up by Lingxi himself.

Yongle Palace originally had a eunuch named Mei Anhai, and there was also a grandmother named Mama Lu. Wei Anhai and Mama Lu didn't know whose minions they were, and Lingxi didn't dare to use it deeply, nor did they dare to believe it. So he only instructed Xiao Dezi to become the chief eunuch in the Lingyan Palace, and Xiao Wuzi, Xiao Renzi, and Xiao Weizi, who were later selected from the Yeting Palace, were arranged to be on duty at night and run errands to pass on messages.

On the second day of the Lingyan Palace, the rewards of Emperor Yong'an and Empress Zhu poured into the Lingyan Hall like water. Lotus Ye stood at the door of the hall, leading the smoke, Xia Qing, Xia Tong carefully counted the objects, and Xiao Wuzi wrote a record. After the point was investigated, Xiao Renzi led the rough palace maid and eunuch to carefully carry it to the treasury of the Lingyan Palace.

In the afternoon, the gifts of the concubines and concubines also arrived.

Concubine Ying ordered the palace maid beside her to send two high-grade Yunyanluo, two purple gauze silk, and a pair of crystal clear green jade bracelets, two sets of jade hairpins with good color, one white and one green.

In addition to sending a thousand-year-old ginseng plant she brought from the Great Moon Kingdom, Concubine Ren also gave two pieces of couch mattresses made of high-quality dog bear skin, and a close-fitting soft armor that is said to be made of hundred-year-old snow fox skin.

The soft armor is soft and warm to the touch, and it is really a good thing. Although there are all kinds of objects in the Great Shun Dynasty, this kind of high-grade snow fox is very rare. There are two pieces that are tributed to the emperor and queen, and concubines like Lingxi can not be seen on weekdays.

Concubine Rougui ordered the palace maid beside her to send a group of seven, jade Ruyi of different sizes and shapes.

Concubine Cao Gui ordered the palace maid beside her to send a jade Guanyin, and two exquisite gold-inlaid jade step shakes.

Xin Concubine's position is the same as that of Lingxi, and there is no reason to send the palace maid. Therefore, he personally went to the Lingyan Hall to send a pair of plum bottles made of fine white jade, two pairs of agate earrings, and a string of pearl necklaces.

Yu Concubine Ling has no heirs under her body, and she can't give a congratulatory gift to Xin Concubine, so she can send a slightly lower gift.

His concubines and concubines, after the concubines above the concubine gave gifts, compared to the congratulatory gifts and stepped on the threshold of the Lingyan Palace.

For a while, the front door of the Lingyan Hall was like a market, and it was several times more lively than when Concubine Ren was conceived.

When receiving the congratulatory gifts from Concubine Ying and Concubine Ren, Lingxi still had the strength to deal with a few words, and when Concubine Xin, Concubine Yu, and Concubine Ling arrived in the afternoon, Lingxi's face was already pale. After sending Lan Jieyu away, Lingxi's physical strength had reached its limit.

Therefore, the Lingxi cat returned to the inner hall of the Lingyan Palace, and let the lotus leaf and Xiao Dezi go to send it, and he was waited by Qiaozhu to rest.

Qiaozhu's temperament is more cheerful than that of lotus leaves, and he doesn't dare to speak in front of Lingxi like Hanyan Hanyu. I saw Qiaozhu deliver the fetal medicine boiled by Xia Qing to Lingxi, and muttered, "Concubine Xin is really good, and I don't know the point of giving the gift." It's not easy for others to give more valuable ones than she looks......"

Before Lingxi could swallow a mouthful of the fetal pill, he was almost squirted out by Qiaozhu when he said, "I just found out today that you are still a money fan!" ”

"Niangniang, the slave is not a fan of money, the slave and the maid feel that they are at a loss!"

After Lingxi was promoted to the concubine, the palace people in the palace changed their names to call her Niangniang.

"The gifts given by people have gone into our pockets, why do we suffer?"

Qiaozhu took the charcoal-burned hand stove and handed it to Lingxi, and said, "Although Concubine Xin has a daughter under her knees, she is not loved by the emperor. The gift she gave to her mother must have known this. But if there is something in her temple one day, the lady who is receiving the favor will not be able to send such a small family. One is to lose his identity, and the other is that Ruoxin Concubine Niangniang was favored at that time, and it is not easy to offend. In this way, the mother is not at a loss. In the final analysis, Concubine Xin is a narrow-minded person, and the slave just can't get used to it! ”

The more Lingxi listened, the more the smile on his face dissolved. She only thought that Qiaozhu was just a capable person, but she didn't want to think about a lot of things in her heart.

"Then you can talk about Concubine Ying, Concubine Ren, Concubine Rou, and Concubine Cao."

Qiaozhu sat on the small table next to the kang, rubbed Lingxi's legs, and said, "The slave is humble in my opinion." Concubine Ying's reward is the most normal, that is, it is not outstanding, and there is no meaning of disparagement. Concubine Ren's gift is really a bit heavy, not to mention anything else, the soft armor of the snow fox alone is not even a piece of the queen's mother. What's more, she also gave her mother two mattresses made of dog bear skin. The slave maid heard that the bear's skin was the most cold-resistant, and even if it did not burn the earth dragon in winter, it would be warm under it. ”

Lingxi nodded, "Concubine Ren's gift is indeed heavy. ”

Qiaozhu said again, "The courtesy of the noble concubine is not light. There is only a set of seven jade ruyi written on the gift list, which does not look unusual. But the slave maid opened it behind her back and looked, the seven jade ruyi were of different sizes and shapes, which were really beautiful. The slave maid saw that there was a small transparent stick made of jade in the brocade box, so she picked it up and gently touched the jade Ruyi. Sissy mother, guess what? ”

Lingxi was intrigued by Qiaozhu's words and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"Those seven jade ruyi can actually make a different sound, their sound is very crisp, very good!" Qiaozhu pursed his lips and said, "The slave doesn't think it's the sound of the slave and the maid, it must be that the jade Ruyi is like that." ”

Lingxi raised his eyebrows after hearing this, as Qiaozhu said, that Yu Ruyi is really a baby.

Why does the concubine give such a heavy gift? The deceased Liu is a Rou Gui Concubine**, even if the Rou Gui Concubine is not angry at Lingxi, it stands to reason that she should not be so courteous.

It's a pity that the things in the harem can't be explained clearly, and what Lingxi can do is only to respond to all changes with the same.

"As for Concubine Cao...... Qiaozhu's face showed indignation, "obviously I just didn't put Niangniang in my eyes." The color of the jade sent by it is only medium. As for those two step shakes, they are just new styles sent by the palace bureau this year. Cao Guifei has no children under her knees but is so arrogant, it is nothing more than ......"

Qiaozhu didn't say anything about this, and carefully glanced at Lingxi's face, knowing that he had more words today.

"It's nothing more than looking down on my lowly status and disdaining to treat me with courtesy, right?" The corners of Lingxi's mouth provoked a hint of laughter, and he didn't care at all.

The people who saw her clearly in the past, the dead and the wounded, who knows how long this Cao Guifei will be able to laugh.

"Humph!" Qiaozhu let out a light snort from his nose and said, "She has no heirs under her knees, and there is a possibility that Niangniang will win the concubine position in the future, but there is no her!" ”

Lingxi rubbed Qiaozhu's forehead funny, and said, "If you hum again, you will hum the pig's nose, and then I won't like you." ”

There is a great possibility that Concubine Cao will win the position of concubine, and Cui Guifei has no heirs on her knees, but she still directly achieved the position of concubine. Emperor Yonghe's favor is one thing, and the family power behind him is the real reason. Lingxi sighed in his heart, he was still behind him, otherwise, where would it be so difficult.

Qiaozhu stretched out his hand and pinched his nose, grimaced at Lingxi and said, "I won't become a pig's nose, my mother will tease the slave." ”

As he spoke, he stood up and helped Lingxi into the dormitory. At this time, there were still two hours before dinner, and Lingxi could take a nap.

In the evening of the same day, the reward of the noble concubine came down, although the gift was not as valuable as the noble concubine, but it showed the mind of the noble concubine as a sister. Without gold, silver and jade jewelry, it is all things that women can use during pregnancy. Miscellaneous, full of a table in the inner sanctum.

Xian Guifei took Lingxi's hand, with tears in the corners of her eyes, and said happily, "I know that you don't lack anything here, but I want to be like the sister in an ordinary family, everything is thought of for you." ”

Xian Guifei sat down and left, followed by Emperor Yong'an.

Emperor Yong'an looked at Lingxi's eyes, full of tenderness. After having dinner with Lingxi, Emperor Yong'an stayed in the Lingyan Palace.

Lingxi was shocked when he heard it, and he was really afraid that this emperor who didn't care about the ancestral system would do something.

But Emperor Yong'an only hugged Lingxi's soft body, and whispered, "I just want to hug and hug you two well." In the future, the dragon heir in your womb is born, soft and soft, and I am afraid of touching him......"

In the tone, there is no such thing as the condescending tone of the king of a country. At this time, Emperor Yong'an was just a father, a father who loved his unborn child.

Lingxi's nose was a little sour, although she didn't love Emperor Yong'an, she had to admit the fact that this man was the father of her child.

At this moment, she felt at peace, at peace she had never felt before. It seems that this kind of peace is what she has been looking for in her two lives.

Emperor Yong'an hugged Lingxi and kissed her forehead, "I promised you, I gave it to you." You must protect our children, so that they can be born and grow up safely. ”

Lingxi nodded, like a cat, and slept peacefully in the arms of Emperor Yong'an, and had a good night's sleep.
