It was a sunny day with a scorching sun and a warm sun.

In Cining Palace, Xuan Ye accompanied Zhaosheng to play chess, and Tong Ruofei sat on the side.

"Today's emperor's mind is not here, this game of mourning is going to win again." Zhaosheng looked at the black and white pieces on the chess game, and it was clear that black had the upper hand.

Xuan Ye was calm, carefully observed the chess game, and said for a long time: "Not necessarily, Sun Er still has the possibility of turning defeat into victory." After thinking about it for a long time, Xuan Ye gave birth to another son.

The two ancestors and grandchildren say a word, every time a child falls in this game of chess, they have their own reasons, and the two compete to explain. Tong Ruofei sat on the side like air, and could only occasionally look at them, and sat there quietly drinking tea and eating snacks by himself.

After about an hour, the game was finally finished. The two packed up the board and started a new game. At this time, Zhao Sheng suddenly remembered that Tong Ruofei who had been sitting next to him.

"The imperial concubine is here today, but is there anything important?" A person who is not very good at playing chess, but is willing to sit and wait for so long, in addition to Tong Ruofei's patience, there is also what she wants to say.

Seeing that Zhaosheng finally took care of himself, Tong Ruofei was ecstatic.

"The concubine thought, there are only two concubines and concubines in the palace now, and the main seat of the inner court is vacant, should I be promoted to the position of each palace?" Tong Ruofei thought for a long time, and finally said it.

Zhaosheng and Xuan Ye both raised their heads, Xuan Ye was holding a handful of white seeds in his left hand, and he was playing with one of the chess pieces in his right hand, looking at Tong Ruofei thoughtfully.

Zhao Sheng thought about it carefully and felt that this statement was reasonable. In the East and West Zodiac Palaces, there are only two concubines, and there are only four concubines, plus Tong Ruofei and Yunyue, there are only eight people in total. It is indeed time to be promoted to the positions of each palace.

"The old people in the palace are just that, the new ones who entered the palace in the first two years have always been in the position when they first came in, so they will be picked up and canonized one by one." Zhao Sheng didn't think about it, and made a decision right away.

When Xuan Ye heard this, he nodded his head and said yes, and instructed Tong Ruofei: "In this way, the noble people of Jing and the noble people of Hua are concubines, and Zhen promised to give birth to the thirteenth elder brother, who is meritorious and has been promoted to be always there." In the early years, Du Changzai gave birth to the eighth elder brother, and he was not promoted, but today he is also promoted to a nobleman. The rest, more on that later. ”

"The concubine wrote it down." Tong Ruofei was happy in her heart, it seems that she brought it up today, and it was really just right. If it is only mentioned in front of Xuan Ye alone, presumably Xuan Ye will also be promoted to Chunxi and others again. Now, only Du Ruo has been promoted, and it is very good to arrive. As for Jing Hao, Tong Ruofei didn't pay attention to it.

"It's okay for a quiet nobleman, now he lives in Changchun Palace, and today he is a concubine, and he can also be the lord of Changchun Palace." Zhaosheng glanced at Tong Ruofei, then turned to Xuan Ye and said, "Ruohua's child is now living with Chengqian Palace, and it is not appropriate to live with Ruofei after sealing the concubine." ”

Xuan Ye also glanced at Tong Ruofei and said, "Yes, you two sisters can't be wronged." ”

Tong Ruofei smiled slightly, happy in his heart, and proposed: "Qixiang Palace is still empty......"

"No." Zhaosheng immediately vetoed: "A few years ago, something like that happened in Qixiang Palace, and it was always unlucky. Don't live there for the time being, let's choose another place. ”

If Qixiang Palace is not inhabited, there will only be Jingren Palace and Jingyang Palace. Jingyang Palace has not been inhabited for many years, and it has not been repaired, if Tong Ruohua is allowed to live in it at this time, it will have to wait for three or five months.

And Jingren Palace used to be the residence of Xuan Ye's biological mother, the Empress Dowager Cihe, and since the death of the Empress Dowager Cihe, no one lives there. However, unlike Gyeongyang Palace, Gyeongin Palace is uninhabited, but it has been renovated over the years.

"Let's live in Jingren Palace." Seeing that Tong Ruofei and Xuan Ye were silent, Zhaosheng took the initiative.

"It's okay, let Ruohua live in Jingren Palace." Xuan Ye should also inherit it.

The day of the canonization was set in a month later. And Tong Ruohua's relocation to the palace was also chosen on the same day.

With such great joy, Tong Ruohua is undoubtedly the happiest. It's all fun for a month, and the smiling faces are welcoming every day.

In Yikun Palace, Chunxi sat with Yunyue, Du Ruo and others. On the round table in the center, a variety of dishes are placed.

"Du Ruo is very happy today, let's toast her." Chun Xi smiled and raised his glass, suggested.

Everyone raised their glasses in celebration, and the room was peaceful.

"Speaking of which, it's time for Concubine Hua to move to the palace today. At this hour, I'm afraid I'm sitting in Jingren Palace. Du Ruo remembered these days, every time he saw Tong Ruohua, the other party was an invincible appearance. What is different from the past is that there is always a smile on her face.

"What are we going to do with her?" Chun Xi pursed her lips and smiled: "Concubine Hua? Or a vase? She has a good skin, but her brain is not as good as that of An Concubine back then. ”

"I think the two of them are half a pound." Yun Yue also smiled and said: "An Concubine is a poor person, I just don't know if this vase is just as pitiful." ”

"The poor will have something to hate." Du Ruo said: "Concubine Hua has always been arrogant, and she doesn't look down on people who are lower than her but are favored. However, she relied on the power of the Tong family and the status of the imperial concubine in the palace. However, the imperial concubine does not value her. ”

"Perhaps, it is precisely because of the lack of attention that it has led to Hua Concubine's petty family spirit." Chun Xi sighed: "Don't talk about her, let's have a drink." ”

In a few words, Chunxi didn't want to mention these people anymore, which affected today's atmosphere.

The stars dotted the whole dark night, and Du Ruo stood in front of the gate of Yikun Palace, looking at the starry sky from afar, feeling a little melancholy in his heart.

Since entering the palace, she has been in the camp step by step, and it is not easy to be promoted to a noble person today. She knew that Chunxi had a comprehensive plan to deal with Tong Ruofei, but she was faintly worried in her heart. Tong Ruofei has been rooted for more than 20 years, and he was able to kill the two queens of Renxiao and Xiaozhao successively, and became the most noble woman in the Forbidden City, in this huge harem. Such people, in the past ten years, they have been unable to guard against it, and she has calculated how many times they have been framed. Nowadays, it is not easy to eradicate it in one fell swoop.

"Aren't you going back?" Yunyue was the last to come out, but when she walked to the door, she saw Du Ruo standing here, motionless and contemplative, and stepped forward and patted her on the shoulder: "But what's the confusion?" ”

"It's not confusing, it's just nostalgia for the past." Du Ruo turned back to Yunyue and said, "The concubine is in a hurry to go back?" ”

"Don't worry, let's talk together, it's okay to sober up." Yunyue also looked up at the sky, saw the stars shining, and also wanted to enjoy the scenery tonight. He bowed his head and said to Du Ruo: "Why don't you go to the Imperial Garden for a walk?" ”

"It's fine." Although the Imperial Garden and Yikun Palace are far apart, Du Ruo and Yunyue have a different mood today, maybe it is better to say it and express their emotions.

The two of them walked forward side by side, and the eunuch who followed behind them and the palace maid who held the lamp in front of them did not dare to get too close.

"Recently, this palace heard that Concubine Zhen and you are no longer as close as before?" Yunyue asked.

Du Ruo nodded and said: "That's true, Concubine Zhen is a little deliberately estranged, and after coming out of the cold palace, she will no longer be close to any concubine." Even the people who are waiting around her, only the new child who married into the palace with her has to be valued by her. ”

"After all, I learned to be obedient, and I know that it's time to take precautions." Yunyue chuckled: "But it's just blindly taking precautions, and I'm isolated." ”

Jing Hao did this, just in case, to reduce the direct harm caused to her by others. But in this palace, open guns are easy to dodge, and hidden arrows are difficult to defend. No matter how cautious you are, there are times when you are careless. And there are always people who like to see the stitch and hit it with one hit.

"How did the concubine ask about the concubine?" Du Ruo was a little puzzled, Jing is a good person, gentle and timid, and it is common for him to experience some changes in those things.

"After all, she is Suo Etu's niece and the prince's aunt. She is in the palace, even if she doesn't do anything, she has everything she deserves. Yun Yue sighed: "Just like this palace and Hua Concubine." With an unbeatable family and a high-ranking sister, we exist only to add to the cake. ”

If Empress Renxiao and her sister are still alive, if Tong Ruofei can give birth to a prince or princess, then there is no need for these sisters to enter the palace at all.

In fact, they are all stand-ins, and they are all continuing the family's mission for their sisters.

The only difference is that Jing Hao still has a face similar to that of Empress Renxiao. With a face, how many people's hearts are shocked. Jing Hao didn't do anything now, just because she didn't know what to do, and she also didn't find a suitable time.

If one day, the opportunity comes, presumably Jing Hao will become a respectable opponent.

Jing Hao is different from Tong Ruohua, Jing Hao has brains, and she is a very smart and forbearant woman. Something like that happened and her reputation was tarnished. came out of the cold palace, but she was still able to maintain her previous superficial mentality.

Yunyue believes that Chunxi's change to Jing Hao must also be in her eyes, but Chunxi is now focused on dealing with Tong Ruofei, so naturally she can't keep an eye on Jing Hao.

"You have to be careful, and you must pay attention to Jing Concubine." A person like this has such a strong sense of self-defense, so they should also be careful to guard against it.

Du Ruo was clear, and she immediately understood Yun Yue's worries. Jing Hao's estrangement from herself, although it is reasonable, is also a little too much, she should pay attention to Jing Hao's every move.

Yunyue and Du Ruo were still on their way to the Imperial Garden, but they saw Dong Xinrui who had returned from the Imperial Garden.

"It's a concubine." Du Ruo's eyes were sharp, and he recognized the oncoming woman at a glance.

Dong Xinrui only brought an attendant, originally just wanted to visit the Imperial Garden. Unexpectedly, I met Jing Hao in the Imperial Garden, and the two are now both concubines, one is a concubine and the other is a concubine. The title is the same, but the status is not the same. "Respect" is the title, but "Jing" is just because there is no title and the name is the name, Dong Xinrui just feels that the diaphragm should respond.

When he saw Jing Hao, he felt that the scenery was bad, and he turned around and left. I never thought that I had just walked out of the gate of the Imperial Garden, and when I turned around, I met Yunyue and Du Ruo again.

Although he didn't want to see the two of them, he could only respectfully greet Yunyue.

"Respect and quietness are really different." Du Ruo looked at the back of Dong Xinrui leaving, and couldn't help sighing.
