Xuan Ye poked his son's little face and said, "The imperial grandmother loves our brothers the same, and the emperor doesn't care about us. Although I became an emperor, I was still so intimate with Fuquan Changning because there was no difference in the treatment I received since childhood. โ
Shu Shu carried Cheng Rui back to the small bed, and heard Xuan Ye say behind him: "But maybe it's more that there is no difference in treating the children's grandfathers." โ
Concubine Ning and Concubine Chen are all from ordinary backgrounds, and the previous generation was still the world of Horqin.
But if Queen Xiaoxian doesn't die, the fourth elder brother is still alive, whether it is the grace of the concubine or the background of the grandfather's family, maybe there is nothing to do with Xuan Ye.
After all, the inheritance of the throne, except for extraordinary circumstances, is mostly determined by the personal preferences and will of the reigning emperor, and in the future, Xuan Ye will also arrange his heir in the same way.
Shu Shu didn't want the atmosphere and mood to become heavy, turned around and hooked Xuan Ye's waist, and smiled: "The two of us, we are still children." โ
Xuan Ye rubbed against Shu Shu's forehead: "You are, I'm not." โ
Shu Shu smiled: "It's obviously big on one side." โ
Xuan Ye's fingers stroked Shu Shu's soft earlobe: "I slept for most of the day today, and I was very energetic. โ
Shu Shu trembled slightly, and his eyes were tactful: "The emperor is energetic, but I am tired, the emperor ...... Let's go back. โ
The night is getting deeper, and as the emperor and queen go to bed, the lights of the Kunning Palace of the Qianqing Palace are gradually extinguished.
The Forbidden City quieted down, and the palace people who patrolled the candle flame came to the palace where they often lived, and when they saw that the lights were still on, they went in to inquire, and a little palace maid came out to say good things and sent them away.
In the house, Li leaned on the head of the bed and staggered sleepily, and her palace maid came to tell her that the guards had urged the candle to be extinguished, and she got up angrily to blow out the candle: "The huge palace, lighting a candle is also buckled." โ
Li Changzai's room was dark, and she could see the light outside, and the lights were still on Nalan's side, so she complained: "Why don't you rush her?" โ
The palace maid responded: "It's urged, but Nalan is always here, so there is probably some needlework to do." โ
"Come less, our clothes and socks are all made by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, what do you want her to do." Li Changzai was very angry, and he was so sleepy that he only yawned, "She just deliberately made some excuses, waiting, waiting for the emperor to turn over her brand." โ
The little palace maid persuaded: "Don't say that, today's incident outside the Fengxian Palace, the slave and maid are still trembling." โ
On the contrary, Li became more and more angry, and after lying down, he said hatefully: "When I get the emperor's favor, see if I can't clean up that little girl." โ
"Who do you mean?" The palace maid asked.
"Hui Concubine, who else?" Li Changzai rolled over, "Stand down, I'm very sleepy." โ
On this side, the palace maid who was always there also came to urge the master to go to bed early, Nalan took the needle and thread in his hand and said, "You guys can rest, I'll just stitch two more stitches." โ
If the master doesn't sleep, how dare the slave sleep, and the Nalan clan has no choice but to rely on it.
At the moment, her status is still low, and there are very few palace maids used, they are on duty in turn, and they can't leave her day and night. In addition, living in the same courtyard with other people has to be humble and avoid each other, and their daily life is limited, and they cannot do what they want.
Nalan lay down, the lights in the house were extinguished, and when he heard the anxious footsteps of the little palace maid, he must be in a hurry to go back to the bed, but Nalan turned over and sat up, looking at the moonlight outside the window in a daze.
In fact, she does needlework every night, not to make up for herself, although the place where she lives is not spacious, but the brocade clothes and jade food are not disadvantaged, she waits so night and night, just to wait for the emperor to turn over the brand.
When Qin'an Hall saw it, it was unforgettable, Nalan never expected that the emperor with a pockmarked face was so handsome and chic, even though there were acne marks on his face that could not be faded, but it did not affect the handsomeness between his eyebrows.
At that time, if he was put on a brand, and then married to another family, he might forget it after a while, but when he heard that he was left with a brand, he was the emperor's woman from then on, and at that moment, Nalan fell in love.
Later, Mingzhu's congratulatory letter said that when entering the palace, you should be docile and polite, don't be eager for quick success, be humble and forbearing, and don't be public. Since then, she has been a concubine in the harem, and Mingzhu has been an official in the previous dynasty, and she is willing to support each other and reproduce the glory of the Nalan family.
But as soon as they entered the palace, they were thrown away by the emperor for more than three months, and they couldn't even say a word.
The low-ranking palace concubines can't walk around the inner palace at will, and the only thing that can justifiably go out is to go to the palaces to ask for peace.
At the beginning, the others were still hindering the rules of the palace and walked with her, but later the queen and Concubine Zhao repeatedly said that they would be exempted from asking for peace, and the weather was getting colder and colder, so the Li family and the Hesheri family were too lazy to go.
Nalan still insisted, rain or shine, this was the only way for her to have the opportunity to meet the emperor, day by day, the hard work paid off, and she got her wish.
Thinking back to the tension of the first night, it will still make Nalan's heart ripple, the emperor is so gentle and funny, and then they are familiar with each other, the warm pavilion of Qianqing Palace, in her eyes, is like heaven.
Thinking of all this, Nalan wrapped himself in the quilt and lay down, curled up in a ball, and after taking a deep breath, he tried to calm himself down.
She soon realized that the difference between herself and the Li family was only whether she had slept with the emperor for one night, and other than that, there was no difference.
The so-called "favorite concubine" rumored outside is simply a joke in the eyes of the Nalan clan.
There is a queen of the middle palace in this Forbidden City, who is the favorite concubine, I am afraid that there will never be a favorite concubine.
She is now just a body that the emperor uses to enjoy, and if she wants to really be a person in the Forbidden City, there is still a long way to go.
In the blink of an eye, it was another year of Lantern Festival, and after Concubine Zhao recovered from her illness, she took over all the affairs and took care of it again, but the queen arranged everything in the first month early, and she said that she didn't want to bother anymore, so she pushed it to Lingzhao, in fact, everything was done perfectly.
This is the ability that a queen should have, Ling Zhao will not be unwilling or jealous, but what she can't accept is that those minions have been working in the middle palace for a few days, and they will not obey, Ling Zhao feels uncomfortable no matter how she calls, which makes her very annoyed.
Only secretly endure and wait for the first month, but those who do not obey can be discarded at any time, and Lingzhao will never be soft.
After the Lantern Festival, the Empress Dowager issued an order, ordered the emperor to move to the Wuying Palace to listen to the government, the Tao is last year's earthquake, the Qianqing Palace was damaged, the emperor lived in the damaged palace, damaged the power of the sky, and the Qianqing Palace will be renovated from February.
When it comes to last year's natural disasters, we have to investigate the dereliction of duty of Qin Tianjian in predicting, revise the calendar, and implement the calendar calculated by Nan Huairen.
After the decree to dismiss the officials of the Qin Heavenly Prison was promulgated, Aobai's "illness" was finally cured, and he angrily broke into the Wuying Palace, asking the emperor why he was gullible to foreigners.
Xuan Ye said calmly: "Nan Huairen guarantees with the head of the Xiang, if there is a mistake in the calendar in the future, please kill him at any time, since this is the case, you might as well give it a try." The sun rises and the moon sets, the four seasons are stormy, and everyone can watch with their eyes. If there is a deviation, then I will order Ao Taibao to protect you and take the head of Nan Huairen. โ
Ao Bai glared at the little emperor angrily and said coldly: "The minister will sharpen the knife quickly and give him a good time." โ
Xuan Ye smiled faintly: "The Wuying Palace is not as spacious as the Qianqing Palace, Ao Taibao, you don't have to speak so loudly in the future, take care of your body." โ
Ao Bai seemed to have a mouthful of blood on his chest, he couldn't swallow it, he couldn't spit it out, when he left Wuying Palace, his face was pale, and his steps were thumping, which shocked the little eunuchs along the way.
A few days later, the emperor issued another decree that in February, he would inspect the Gyeonggi area to check the relief of the victims after last year's earthquake.
Ao Bai was suspicious of this matter, and left his henchmen in the capital, ordering them to keep an eye on the movements in the palace.
But Xuan Ye left Beijing for a while, in addition to comforting the victims, most of the time, he was wandering around, every mountain and every river, which could make him excited, and he pulled Ao Bai and others to chant for most of the day.
As for the news coming back from Beijing, Prince Kang did not have any other abnormal behaviors except for sorting out the twists and turns of various places with Xiong Cilu and others in the room every day, and everything in the harem was peaceful.
The day before Xuan Ye returned to Beijing, Shu Shu's monthly letter arrived as scheduled, and Pomegranate saw the queen curled up on the kang with a face full of loss, so she comforted: "Niangniang, you are still young, and it is just right to have a child two years later." โ
Shu Shu was stunned for a moment, smiled and didn't speak, how could she say that little thought in her heart to Pomegranate, Pomegranate had never been married after all.
Shu Shu is so anxious that he is not a child, but after a small farewell, he can't win the newlywed.
When Xuan Ye returned to Beijing, after only half a month, he tanned a lot, Shu Shu was very surprised when he saw Xuan Ye at first glance, but Xuan Ye showed Bai Sensen's teeth and said with a smile: "Looking at it now, it's much stronger, isn't it?" โ
After the emperor returned to the palace, with the excitement of traveling, he held an ice frolic for the queen mother, and passed the play in Ningshou Palace for three days.
On this day, when Ao Bai entered the palace, the emperor returned from the wrestling ring sweating profusely and said to him: "Those boys, they all worship Ao Taibao, you can teach them another day and let them open their eyes." โ
Ao Bai didn't agree immediately, but he couldn't understand the emperor more and more, because in his opinion, the emperor was undoubtedly a playful teenager, but why every time the kings and ministers met each other, he would feel fear in his heart, and this fear was increasing day by day, and one day, it would force him to go crazy.
But the emperor's days, more and more comfortable, in addition to playing and frolicking as he wants, the harem concubines are also more frequent than in previous years, and the three new palace last year have been summoned one after another.
At the beginning of March, Li Changzai was sent to the warm pavilion of Wuying Hall for the first time, and the people who were chattering and flamboyant on weekdays were scared like a piece of wood at this time, Xuan Ye did not force her, talked to her casually, and when the time came, he sent people back.
Li Chang thought that he was finished, and he lost face and didn't say anything, and he would never be liked by the emperor again, so he hid in the house and cried for a long time.
Who knew that the next night, someone from the Internal Affairs Office came to pick her up again, this time, she finally became the emperor's woman, and because of the emperor's thoughtfulness and the dignity of being sent to the dragon couch for two consecutive nights, she was very proud.
