Chapter 69: The First Greeting
After the pear girl recovered from her injury, the Ministry of Rites chose a date to hold a concubine ceremony for the pear girl.
Now that Pear Ling is already a virtuous concubine, as one of the four concubines from Yipin, the canonization ceremony is very troublesome, and after all the things are over, the whole person is tired.
The wound on her back was a little itchy, but she couldn't scratch it, and she really felt that this day was too difficult.
After the ceremony, Li Ling sent everyone out of the dormitory, and then lay on the chaise longue and scratched the wound on her back, which happened to be seen by Dong Qilin.
Dong Qilin felt funny at the same time, but also felt some indescribable bitterness.
When the emperor saw such a thing, the whole person felt so embarrassed that his face immediately turned red, and while the emperor laughed, he also stretched out his hand to scratch the wound for the pear ling.
The two of them kept it for a while.
Soon the full moon of the emperor's eldest son arrived.
The eldest prince is the first prince in the five years since the emperor ascended the throne, and the emperor attaches great importance to it, and often goes to Yao Guifei's Lixiang Palace to visit the eldest prince.
Concubine Yao also came out of confinement, and the full moon banquet of the eldest prince was set up in Lixiang Palace.
Everyone in the harem also saw the eldest prince who had never seen anyone who had been tightly covered by Concubine Yao.
The eldest prince's body does look a little weak, but he is not badly raised, a few points better than Li Ling imagined, after all, Yao Guifei has never let people see the eldest prince, and Li Ling still thinks that the eldest prince's health is very poor.
Everyone gave gifts to the eldest prince at the full moon banquet, most of them were some ingenious gifts, even if they were not to please Concubine Yao, they also had the intention of pleasing the emperor.
Pear Ling just gave a decent gift, not out of style.
Li Ling looked at the Yao Guifei on the main throne coldly and smiled like a 'flower', the joy could not be stopped, but Li Ling looked at the eldest prince held in the hands of the 'milk' grandmother, but always felt that the eldest prince seemed to be too quiet, there were so many people in this hall, but the eldest prince who had never seen outsiders was not afraid at all, it was so noisy at this time, but the eldest prince was still asleep with peace of mind.
That night, the emperor naturally rested in Lixiang Palace.
The next day, the emperor ordered all the concubines who had slept to go to Lixiang Palace to ask for peace.
For a while, everyone was a little stunned, when Concubine Yao was still a concubine, she was also in charge of palace affairs, but the emperor did not say that he wanted everyone to ask for peace, and Concubine Yao Xian herself had never called someone to ask for peace, so no one went, but now he asked all the concubines to ask for peace to Concubine Yao, who was in charge of palace affairs.
Although everyone has different hearts, they still go to Lixiang Palace early to ask for peace.
Li Ling suddenly regretted that she had moved to such a far palace at that time, no, at least she had to walk half the way more than ordinary concubines.
So when Pear Ling arrived at Lixiang Palace, most of the seats were already occupied.
Concubine Yao must be sitting on the main seat at the top, so the position of the pear is the first on the left, Wan Zhaoyi opposite, and Zhao Zhaorong at the bottom.
Today is the first time in history that I say hello, and I don't know what it will be like.
After waiting for a while, except for Xin Jieyu and Bai Baolin, who were grounded, all the people arrived, and Concubine Yao Guifei arrived from the side hall to the main seat.
"The concubine/concubine asks for peace to the concubine Niangniang, and the concubine Niangniang Jin'an." Zhengsi Jieyu and below call themselves concubines, and the above are called concubines, and all the palace concubines get up together and then lean over to salute Yao Guifei.
"All the sisters should sit down, no need to be polite." Yao Guifei's voice was still as gentle as ever, but Li Ling seemed to hear some excitement in it.
Also, whoever changes will feel very excited, after all, no one will not be excited about this feeling of being on top.
"The palace thought, although it is already a 'spring' day, but the 'spring' is cold, the sisters come to ask for peace so early, it will freeze the sisters, just talk to the emperor, this is not needed, but the emperor insists on this, saying that the rules of the harem should also be established, so, you can only work hard for the sisters, sisters don't blame the palace!" Concubine Yao explained lightly.
When the people in the hall heard this, their eyes flashed, and Li Ling sneered in her heart, why didn't she think that this Yao Guifei An Wanling was so good at talking before? In a word, a lot of things are clearly explained in a few words, first, this invitation is the emperor's meaning, if you don't come, you have to weigh the emperor's meaning, second, this invitation is to make rules, it's better not to be late or something, third, this matter has nothing to do with her Yao Guifei, don't look for her resentful.
Li Ling smiled and said: "Sister Guifei is now raising the eldest prince, but it is much harder than the concubines, and the concubines don't feel hard, so where will the concubines and others feel hard." "It's hard enough to raise the eldest prince, and you still let people come to ask for peace, saying that this is not what you want, who will believe it!
"You're a sweet-mouthed!" Concubine Yao acted as if she couldn't hear the meaning of Liling's words at all, and only listened to Liling's words as good words.
"Sister Xianfei is telling the truth!" Duan Xiurong also said, since Duan Xiurong was found out that she couldn't get pregnant, the Queen Mother has treated her a lot less, and now she is very low-key.
"The concubine thinks that the eldest prince is a person who loves his mother, and he must not make trouble with the concubine." Meng Xiuyuan has always been very good at dealing with Duan Xiurong, so this is naturally said in the opposite direction. Since Meng Xiuyuan was killed and Duan Xiurong couldn't get pregnant, Meng Xiuyuan's personality 'sex' has become a little extreme, and she can no longer win the emperor's favor like before, and now, she has basically fallen out of favor.
"The concubine brought the account book in the palace today, since the mother has already been out of confinement, then this palace affairs will naturally have to be '' by the mother." Li Zhaoyuan ignored these people's 'lip' and verbal battles, and directly got down to business.
"Sister Li doesn't talk about this, this palace has to talk about it too," Concubine Yao paused, "The eldest prince is in weak health, and this palace has also been lacking in 'essence' recently, so this palace affairs should be temporarily placed with Sister Li." ”
Li Ling was a little surprised, raising the prince is naturally important, isn't the palace affairs important?
"This ......" Li Zhaoyuan was not very willing to continue to take over the palace affairs, "Niangniang, the concubine took care of the palace affairs before because the concubine wanted to raise the fetus with peace of mind, and the time was not long, so the concubine took care of it with her scalp, and now the mother has given birth to the eldest prince safely, and this palace affairs are still ......"
"Although it hasn't been a long time, the palace still takes care of Li Zhaoyuan very well, so how about the palace send someone to help you? If you encounter a major event, you can ask the palace for an idea. Concubine Yao's tone was unmistakable.
"The concubine takes the order." Li Zhaoyuan had no choice, so she had to continue to take care of the palace affairs, "I don't know who the concubine is going to send to take care of it with the concubine?" ”
"Would you like to be a virtuous concubine?" Yao Guifei looked at Li Ling with a smile.
Li Ling was thinking about why Yao Guifei continued to 'hand' over the palace affairs, but she was suddenly stopped by the concubine, Li Ling was stunned, Yao Guifei is ......
