Chapter 7: I can't help it

On the other side of the city, the firewood alley in Xisi. In the same spacious but somewhat bleak old mansion, an old man in the study of the western courtyard stared at Xingzhen in front of him.

"You say, the daughter of Mu Yang's family is very stable?" This is the head of the Yehe family, Yeh Nara Jingrui.

"Yes, Marfa asked her granddaughter to pay attention to him, and when her granddaughter saw Niu Hulu's car, she went to greet her. After a night around Sijiu City, his clothes were not messy, his hair was fixed with a silver hairpin, and his eyes were still shining, not at all like he hadn't slept all night! Xingzhen sighed a little, although they only said one word, but Xingzhen involuntarily called her 'sister'.

"How do you know that she belongs to Muyanga's family?" Jing Rui frowned and immediately asked.

In the twenty-ninth year of Daoguang, Jing Rui was arrested and put into the prison of the Criminal Department because of his father's deficit in the household department. Fortunately, at the suggestion of his granddaughter, the son returned part of the money while borrowing money to dredge up and down, and finally rescued him. At that moment, Jingrui was really hit.

In the past, Yehenala was so prominent, among the eight surnames of the year, Yehenala was impressively registered, and now, where does the world know that Taizu's biological mother's surname is Yehenara, and Taizong's biological mother is still surnamed Yehenara. When he arrived at the famous pearl of the Holy Ancestor Dynasty and the great poet Nalan Xingde, his surname was still Yehenara!

But it seemed to be a flash in the pan, after which there was no one to be mentioned again. The best is just Concubine Shun in the Qianlong era, who went all the way from a noble person to the concubine position very smoothly, but she was inexplicably demoted and died of depression in the palace.

Letting his granddaughter run for the election was the last thing he did for his family, and it can be said that he put all his mind and mind for 70 years into this draft. If you don't want to be manipulated anymore, you have to rise up. And what he can do now is to send his smart granddaughter into the palace and fight for Ye He's family to come out in a prosperous world.

Originally, in the world, in addition to the granddaughter's own outstandingness, if you want to be in the position, you have to rely more on the family's efforts. And the Ye He family no longer has the ability to help her. Jingrui then began to look for allies for her granddaughter. Generally speaking, each family has to send a lot of people to participate in the election, but this draft is mainly to fill the emperor's empty six palaces, so there will not be many people who can pass the primary election. At this time, the new emperor ascended the throne, and the throne still needs the support of all ethnic groups, so this draft, political balance is the focus.

Jingrui is most concerned about Niu Hulu's family, the eight surnames of the Manchu people, and since entering the customs, there has been no shortage of people from their family in the palace. Empress Xiao Zhaoren and Concubine Wen Xi during the reign of the Holy Ancestor Kangxi; Sejong's Empress Xiao Shengxian is also the biological mother of Gaozong Qianlong; When he arrived at Emperor Renzong Jiaqing, Empress Xiaohe Rui and Imperial Concubine Gongshun; And the filial piety of Emperor Xuanzong Daoguang in the previous generation, Empress Xiaomucheng and Empress Xiaoquancheng, that is to say, except for the Qianlong Dynasty, there will be a queen in every generation of their family. And the filial piety of the Qianlong Dynasty became the queen mother, lived to the forty-second year of Qianlong, eighty-six years old, and was known as the most blessed woman.

And among these nobles surnamed Niu Hulu, except for today's biological mother Empress Xiao Quancheng, the others are basically from the same line, the Manchurian warriors of the year and one of the five founding ministers of the country.

Jing Rui finally set his sights on the yellow flag Mu Yang'a's family, Mu Yang'a himself is not a big official, four grades, and the eighth grandson of the forehead. But his sister is Prince Zheng Fujin, and his eldest daughter is Prince Zhuang Fujin, both of which are **** families. So this time, sending a concubine into the palace and helping each other with the two princes outside, it is promising.

He asked his granddaughter to pay attention, but he didn't expect his granddaughter to take the initiative to greet someone, why was she sure that the steady girl was Mu Yang'a's family?

"There are four girls in the same car, and my granddaughter saw her at first sight. Although I was not sure at the time, it must have been useful to get my grandfather to pay attention to his granddaughter. Of course, looking at the other three, it doesn't look like they can pass the primary. Sure enough, her granddaughter has been paying special attention to her, and it was her during the roll call. ”

"It seems that Muyanga has really bothered a lot over the years, but why did he let that stupid woman make such a fuss at home?" The old man was a little puzzled, Jue Luo's matter, who doesn't know about the same people in Beijing? But quickly shook his head, "You just follow her!" I'm afraid that Niu Hulu's family has figured it out. It is impossible for another queen to appear in the Yan branch, but the position of the queen must not fall on the heads of the other seven families. ”

"So, Marfa thinks that this time the queen still has to be placed in Niu Hulu's house?" Xingzhen looked up at her grandfather.

"Yes, how can the other seven families have Niu Hulu's family that is easy to use, and there are so many queens!" Jing Rui sneered.

"Isn't it because there are so many queens in their family, why do they still choose them?" Xingzhen was also depressed.

"That's why don't you see how the Niu Hulu clan is flourishing now? Just say that Ebidu has been a branch since Taizu, and he and Aixin Jueluo's family have been each other's relatives. This is why the Niu Hulu family has many talents, they have more opportunities than others, so the family grows faster. That's why I have to ask you to run. It's not your business alone, it's the entire Yehe family's business. ”

"Didn't the Ye He family also have a concubine back then?" Xingzhen raised her eyes and looked at her grandfather, obviously she was losing, why did she have to take this risk, "You know that your granddaughter doesn't have much chance, but now you want your granddaughter to enter the palace?" ”

Xingzhen was a little uncomfortable. In my grandfather's opinion, he didn't have the opportunity to be a concubine, so he still had to send himself into the palace wholeheartedly.

"What is the queen, your target is the queen mother, fight for our Ye He family!" The old man slapped the table hatefully.

Xingzhen didn't dare to speak anymore, the Ye He family was really very aggrieved for a hundred years. Starting with their great-grandfather, the family has worked hard, but often backfired. Now the Ye He family can be said to have nothing but this house. He is already the last chance for the family.

I just thought of the girl I saw during the day, two years younger than herself, but in front of her, she felt as if she had nothing to hide. Fight with her, can you live up to your grandfather's expectations? Is it really more competitive than anyone's belly, how can my grandfather be sure that he will definitely go to the position of the queen mother? How about the concubine Shun of the Qianlong Dynasty back then, and then going up, Concubine Hui of the Kangxi Dynasty, the first of the four concubines, later gave birth to the eldest son of the emperor and a powerful heir to the throne. The result? She didn't have her grandfather's confidence.

"Go back, you just have to follow the girl." Jing Rui saw her granddaughter's hesitation and waved her hand. Can he say that even if he is a nobleman, showing that he is a member of the palace, it is also a help to the family? He couldn't say that, he said that, he felt that all the men in his family deserved to die, because they had to sell their granddaughter to survive.

Xingzhen didn't dare to ask more, so she honestly bowed to her grandfather and quickly withdrew. Her heart was also heavy, but she didn't dare to object.
