Now in the palace, the position of the middle palace is vacant, since the queen died of illness five years ago, the highest position in the harem is the Yu Guifei who was born in the Pingxi Wangfu and the Hua Guifei of the Ming State Mansion, followed by the Duan Lady of the Anguo Mansion, and the Qin Lady of the Zhenguo Mansion.

Among the four sons, only the son of Mrs. Duan, the fifth prince is now sixteen years old, which is a good age to decide on a family, which is exactly the same as the lord of Yanyue County of Sinan Wangfu.

Concubine Rong also knows this very well, and knows that her son's rival is the fifth prince from Mrs. Duan.

At this time, in the face of her sister's letter from the Pingguo Mansion, Concubine Rong was unimpressed, she was too busy to take care of herself, where would she have time to meddle in her sister's affairs.

"Niangniang, Mrs. Shizi······" Concubine Rong's confidant palace maid got the benefits from the people sent by the Song family, so she tentatively opened her mouth at this time.

Taking people's money to eliminate disasters for others, this confidant palace maid naturally understands, since she took the silver of the prince of Pingguo, then how can she have to do her part.

If Mrs. Pingguo Gongshi can buy herself, she will definitely be able to buy other palace maids around Niangniang, if she takes the money and doesn't contribute, it is not good.

After all, she is just a palace maid, and that is the sister of her own mother, or the wife of the prince of Pingguo's mansion, and may even become the mother-in-law of a certain prince in the future.

"Juqing, you've overstepped it!" Concubine Rong looked at the palace maid beside her, who was not very stunning, but very attractive, frowned, and then spoke lightly.

The people in the palace, who can do this big palace maid, are all smart, and the palace maid doesn't know how to choose a good bird to perch on.

Concubine Rong naturally understands why the palace maid next to her opens her mouth at this time, it is nothing more than taking money and doing things for others!

After all, he has been serving by his side for five or six years, and he can be regarded as loyal, it is not easy to cultivate a confidant palace maid, and Concubine Rong still has this palace maid useful, so at this time it is just a light reminder.

The palace maid Ju Qing naturally knew that she had overstepped, and at this time she hurriedly knelt down to ask for guilt, but she couldn't figure out what her mother was thinking.

Ju Qing didn't understand why her own mother didn't care about the affairs of Mrs. Pingguo Gongshizi, in her cognition, the five girls from the head of Pingguo Mansion were the nieces of her own mother, wouldn't it be better to kiss His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince, why did Niangniang have to be the Yanyue County Lord of Sinan Wangfu?

Concubine Rong was thinking about how to let her son marry the Yanyue County Lord of Sinan Palace, and at the same time, in Zhaochun Palace, which was not far from her Changchun Palace.

The lord of Zhaochun Palace is Mrs. Qin, who was born in the Hou Mansion of Zhenguo, and Mrs. Qin's maiden home of the Hou Mansion is not very noble, but Mrs. Qin has won the heart of the emperor, so in the harem, among the concubines who were born in the Hou Mansion, the position is the highest, and the status is second only to Hua Guifei, Yu Guifei and Mrs. Duan.

Mrs. Qin has a son and a daughter, the son is the seventh prince, and now he is thirteen years old, and the daughter is the eighth princess, who is fifteen years old.

At the beginning of the eighth princess, the emperor specially gave the word Xitong as the title, so she also became the eighth princess of Xitong.

There are seven half-sisters on the eighth princess of Xitong, of which the fourth princess of Xiyao is the princess of Heqin, the other six, the eldest princess, the second princess and the third princess are all married, and the husband's family is a noble family in the court, and the fifth princess has now selected a concubine, and the remaining six princesses and seven princesses are the same age as them, and they have not yet decided on a candidate for a concubine.

The eighth princess of Xitong has not yet married, so she has been living in the south of the harem, and she lives with other princesses over the age of six who are not yet married.

(Note: The palace of the Great Shun Dynasty, the harem has the middle two palaces, the east and west sixteen palaces, the north three palaces, and the south three palaces.)

The middle second palace is inhabited by the queen and the imperial concubine, and the east and west sixteen palaces are the second concubine, the third lady, the fourth concubine, the third fangyi, the third zhaorong, and the Baihua Palace.

The three northern palaces are Jianzhang Palace, Ningshou Palace, Shou'an Palace, Jianzhang Palace is the residence of the Queen Mother, and Ningshou Palace and Shou'an Palace are the residences of the former emperor's concubines.

In addition, there is the South Three Houses, which were the residences of the princess before she got married. ）

The holy will is unpredictable, although Mrs. Qin is the favorite concubine of the current emperor, but it is not easy to speculate on the meaning of the saint, so she is also worried about her daughter's marriage, for fear that she will be sent to make peace if she is not careful.

Among the daughters of the saint today, so far, only the four princesses of Xiyao from Hua Guifei are close, and most of the princesses who are close to each other in the past few years are the daughters of the former emperor and the half-sister of the saint.

Mrs. Qin is most worried about her daughter's family affairs, although her daughter is more favored by virtue and saints, but compared with national affairs, this favor is not worth mentioning at all.

If sacrificing a princess can buy decades of peace on the border, why not?

"Mother, what are you thinking?" The eighth princess of Xitong looked at her mother concubine who was in deep thought, and opened her mouth in puzzlement.

She finally didn't have to go to the study to study today, and she had the opportunity to accompany her mother, but the mother concubine was good, she only said a few words, and then fell into deep thought!

(Note: The upper study room of the Dashun Dynasty is the daily study place of the princes and princesses, and everything is involved in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, poetry and songs, and female red cooking.)

Of course, for the defense of men and women, this study is divided into two parts, the princes study in one place, and the princesses study in the other place. ）

"Hey, I don't know how your father will arrange your marriage in the future, but don't send him to ·······" The daughter is fifteen years old, and she will be sixteen years old after the turn of the year, and she has already entered the palace at this age.

The daughter is just because she was born in the royal family, so she has not yet decided on a candidate for a horse at this time, if it is not for the royal family, I am afraid that she will be married at this time, and she may even be a mother!

(Note: Dashun Dynasty women are generally after the age of thirteen, to the age of fifteen and can be married, according to the age of the eight princesses of Xitong, if they just turned fifteen years old to marry, they will be pregnant when they get married, conceive in October, once give birth, and now it is just the time to be a mother.) ）

Mrs. Qin was worried about her daughter's marriage and was unwilling to be separated from her daughter.

Since ancient times, there is no princess who has a good death, and most of the people who die in other places will be the princess who will suffer first.

When the eighth princess of Xitong heard this, she was also melancholy in her heart, as a royal princess, enjoying the honor of a princess, she should dedicate her body and even her life to her mother country.

This is the mission they have borne since birth, and they cannot call the shots, and in the face of national affairs, any children's private affairs are not worth mentioning·······
