Chapter 102: Low-ranking concubines
However, Dong Qilin didn't stay in the palace in the end, but had a meal with Li Ling and the three children, and then taught the second prince homework, and then accompanied the fifth princess and the eighth prince to play together for a while.
Regarding the fact that Dong Qilin did not rest in the Moshang Palace in the end, Zhihe and Ming 'Lu' both had a lot of complaints, but Li Ling was like a nobody, and he rested early.
In fact, Li Ling thinks that it is better for Dong Qilin not to stay overnight, otherwise she will have to serve him, who likes to serve people when they are fine? So Dong Qilin left, and Liling was still happy.
What's more, she has long been used to it.
On this day, Concubine Ning sent her personal palace 'girl' Xiaoyu to ask Liling, saying that she was going to release a group of palace 'women' who were over twenty-five years old out of the palace this year, and Concubine Ning came to ask if there were any palace 'women' in Liling's palace who wanted to stay or be released in advance.
After Xiaoyu reminded her like this, Li Ling remembered, isn't it, this year she is going to let the palace 'girl' out of the palace.
Li Ling asked Xiaoyu to go back to Concubine Ning, and asked Concubine Ning to take care of the palace first, if she had a palace 'girl' who wanted to stay for a few more years or was to be released in advance, she would send someone to tell Concubine Ning again.
After Xiaoyu left, Liling called Zhihe and Lianhe.
The two people who rely on the most are Zhihe and Lianhe, followed by Ming'Lu' a few, Ming'Lu' is still young, but there is no need to think about it, but Zhihe and Lianhe are only two or three years younger than her, and now they are twenty-one or twelve, although they are not yet old enough to be released from the palace, but Liling does not want to delay the two.
So Liling called the two of them, and the one who opened the 'door' and saw the mountain told them about it, and asked the two of them if they wanted to leave the palace.
Zhihe and Lianhe glanced at each other, and then said together: "The slave is not yet old and doesn't want to leave the palace." ”
"You have to think clearly, Zhihe, you are twenty-two this year, Lianhe is twenty-one, although this age is not as good as a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl, but it is better than three years later, when you reach twenty-four or five years old." The sons and daughters of ordinary eunuchs generally get married at the age of fifteen or sixteen, while the ordinary people's families are later, generally ten ** years old, so Zhihe and Lianhe's current age is not too big, but if they wait until three years later, it will be really difficult to marry.
"But Niangniang, if we go out of the palace, there will be no one around you......" Lian He said hesitantly, she actually wanted to go home and reunite with her family, but Niangniang is now inseparable from anyone......
"It's okay, Ming 'Lu' has been ** by Zhihe for a few years, and she can barely be on her own, you go out of the palace, just take a little more effort to look at her in the palace." Although Ming'lu's 'sex' is a little more lively, he is a smart one, and with Liling watching from the side, nothing will go wrong.
"Niangniang, with Niangniang's care, the slave maid's family is doing well now, it is the same with or without slaves and maids, but Niangniang has a great favor to the slave and maid, and the slave and maid have nothing to repay, only to do more for the mother, and the slave and maid will be by your side for a few more years!" Zhihe was unmoved, her family was the slave maid of the Jiang Mansion, as early as when Jiang Yan died, her family was sold, and in the end, the master sent someone to find her family with great difficulty, and then removed her family from slavery and arranged her family's life. Their family is grateful to their master, and repeatedly told her to be loyal, but now there are still many restless factors around the master, and she can't only think about herself at this time.
Pear Ling is very pleased, she found Zhihe's family at the beginning, and arranged everything, but she wanted Zhihe to have no worries about the future can be used by her, and later after some contact, I found that Zhihe's family is good-hearted, and it is precisely because Zhihe's family is not bad that Pear Ling reuses Zhihe, because she believes that the family that knows gratitude, and has a good heart, the Zhihe who has been raised must also be good.
Seeing that Zhihe had made up her mind to stay by Liling's side, even He's idea was gone, and she hurriedly said: "Thanks to Niangniang's blessing, the slave's family is now living very well, even if it is not for this, Niangniang has the grace of knowing the slave and the maid, and the slave and the maid cannot go out of the palace at this time anyway." ”
Li Ling couldn't cry or laugh, and persuaded the two of them a few more words, but Zhihe and Lian He made up their minds to stay for a few more years, but Li Ling couldn't help it, so she had to agree.
Although Zhihe and Lianhe are both palace 'women', but in the past few years, both of them have done a lot of things for her, these days are long, it is inevitable that the master and servant have deep feelings, and now these two people are unwilling to go out of the palace for her, and the touch in Liling's heart is not mentioned.
The eighth prince is more than a year old, and he is getting older, so the pear is not so worried, and now the pear is fine, and the days are relatively peaceful, so he often takes the eighth prince himself, so he transferred the branch back to his side, so that there are two big palace 'women' around the pear and two first-class palace 'women', and the manpower is basically enough.
The harem in April was quite stable, except for a Lu Cai 'girl' and Su Xiurong went crazy, nothing else happened, compared to the previous three months, this April was peaceful.
At the end of April, Zhong Baolin and Zhong Qinyue of Zixia Xuan in Jingyi Palace were invited to sleep by the emperor for five consecutive days, and then Zhong Baolin skipped the talent and became Zhong Meiren.
After five days of 'serving' sleep, and two levels in a row, for a while, this Zhong beauty was talked about by everyone in the harem.
Mo Shanggong is no exception, and he talked about Zhong Meiren.
"The slave didn't see it before, Little Master Zhong is so powerful!" Being able to say this in Mo Shanggong is naturally a clear 'dew'.
"No one should be a disgrace." Li Ling smiled slightly, and only said such a sentence, when she first contacted Zhong Meiren, Li Ling only felt that Zhong Meiren was a little cold, she was a cold beauty, she never thought that this cold beauty was extraordinary.
"The slave maid looked at Xiao Master Zhong before, and thought that the emperor would not like such a cold beauty as Xiao Master Zhong." Lian He smiled.
"The emperor has seen a lot of gentle beauties, and it is normal to want to change his taste." Although she had a smile on her face, there was a bit of coldness in her eyes.
Seeing that Li Ling didn't want to talk about Zhong Meiren, a few palace 'women' didn't say anything more, and talked about other things.
Li Ling was secretly thinking, what happened to Dong Qilin recently, the favored concubines are all low-ranking concubines, first there is a Shen beauty, and then there is Lu Cai's 'girl', and then there is a Zhong beauty again.
Could it be that Dong Qilin is afraid of those high-ranking concubines? After all, the concubines in the high positions of the harem now have no bad family backgrounds, such as Concubine Li Xian, her father and brother are all powerful, and Concubine Yi is from the Cheng'en Mansion, and 'Jade' Zhaorong is from the Wei Mansion.
What do you want to do now that Dong Qilin loves these low-ranking concubines and keeps promoting them?
Could it be that they want to elevate the status of these low-ranking concubines in order to distract their influence from these high-ranking concubines?
