Tian Xiang said timidly: "The slave maid has no malice, and it is also for the sake of the young lady." Madame has repeatedly told you that the deep palace is sinister, you are soft-hearted and soft-eared, and you are afraid of being bullied, so if you want the slave and maid to serve you well. ”

Jia Yin understands that her stepmother has good intentions, but she will not regard Yuan Xi as someone who needs to be guarded against no matter what, even if Yuan Xi hates her, there is nothing wrong with it, it is she who owes Yuan Xi first.

"Miss, if you entered the palace with Concubine Tong five years ago, what would you be like now?" Tian Xiang smiled, "Probably, you also gave birth to a little brother." ”

Jia Yin was silent, and Tian Xiang was still excited: "They said that if you canonize the imperial concubine, there will be a grand canonization ceremony, and you will have to make a new court dress, and Chief Wu has already informed the people of Shangyi Supervisor to start preparations." ”

"Don't bring it up again." Jia Yin said, "You went and told them not to show off outside, in short...... Be low-key and cautious outside. ”

Tian Xiang sighed, knowing Miss's temper, she reluctantly walked away, thought about it and came back and said, "Miss, should you beg the emperor not to canonize it?" ”

Jia Yin frowned and said nothing, waving her hand to ask her to step back.

She was a little confused in her heart, in just one month, she was promoted from a concubine to an imperial concubine, although the harem system of the Qing Dynasty has not really been perfected, but she estimated that there should be a concubine in the middle, as early as in the Shengjing Palace, there was a concubine, and the concubine was still alive.

And she, directly crossed.

Such a radiant glow, in the harem may be just a few sour words, but in the previous dynasty, it is not simple.

Ama has been promoted to the Minister of the Interior, and then he should be crowned a marquis, so it seems that it is only a matter of time before he is afraid. All this is built up in the glory of her "love" with the emperor, how long can it shine. In order to maintain the family, to protect Ama and Feiyangu, she must live well in the palace.

Jia Yin reluctantly clenched the silk handkerchief in her hand, this time I am afraid, she can only obey.

In Jingren Palace, Yuan Xi "fell asleep", and Fulin accompanied her for a while, but she was still worried about the canonization of the imperial concubine, and she wanted to discuss with Jia Yin, and at this moment told Pomegranate to take care of her master, so she left in a hurry.

Xiao Quanzi and Pomegranate went to the door to see each other off, Xiao Quanzi said: "This year is really long, so many things have happened, the feng shui of the East Sixth Palace is really good, the people who laughed at our master was thrown in the corner back then, now they want to move over to live." ”

Pomegranate dusted off the dust on his body and smiled disdainfully: "It's not good feng shui, it's good people, change two places, and the result will be the same." ”

In the room, Yuan Xi, who had not fallen asleep at all, got up, thinking back to the feeling of being embraced by the emperor just now, and sure enough, it did not make her feel any happiness and sweet warmth, on the contrary, it was even more desolate and helpless.

"Miss, you're not asleep?"

"You go to Kunning Palace and tell the queen that I want to invite my brother into the palace, and if the emperor nods, I will let my brother enter the palace tomorrow." Yuan Xi instructed, "As long as my brother comes." ”

Outside the Forbidden City, Tong's mansion soon got the news, and the family gathered at night to discuss, saying that although Yuan Xi had just recovered from his illness, the family wanted to take a look, but at this juncture.

In case the emperor's canonization of the imperial concubine is obstructed, wouldn't anyone suspect that Jingren Palace is making trouble.

Tong Tulai smoked a cigarette, made Mrs. Tong very impatient, and ordered the maid to withdraw.

Tong Tulai smashed his mouth a few times, but he didn't dare to make his wife angry, he drank two sips of tea and said: "Guogang entered the palace, it was too eye-catching, and he was a male dependent." It's better to let the daughter-in-law go. ”

Tong Guogang said: "I'm afraid that she can't say something clearly, Yuan Xi wants to see me at the beginning of the month, and there must be something important." ”

Mrs. Tong thought about it again, and said with a horizontal heart: "Son, you will go tomorrow, don't care about the imperial concubine or the imperial concubine, this really canonized it, then it must be Horqin who does not agree, worried that the imperial concubine will threaten the queen, how can we be swayed." ”

Tong Tulai sighed: "It's really unbelievable that the emperor loves so deeply." E Shuo said that he had not been at peace day and night since Concubine Xian entered the palace, and he said that he was afraid that his daughter would not be able to bear such a great blessing. blame him for not being enlightened in his early years and delaying everything. ”

"When I saw him that day, I looked very bad." Mrs. Tong said, "It's not as good as being in the south." ”

Tong Tulai was still hungry for a few puffs of cigarettes, uncomfortable, stretched his waist and said: "At that time, the mountain was high and the emperor was far away, but now under the root of the imperial city, the days under the emperor's nose are not so easy. ”

This night, the family was uneasy, I don't know what Yuan Xi is looking for them, it is said that it is not difficult to exchange letters on weekdays, or send someone to pass the word, if you have to let Tong Guogang enter the palace, I don't know what the kid is trying to do.

The next day, Tong Guogang went to Shenwumen to receive the sign, waiting for Tong Concubine to summon him, and saw that many people were waiting for the Queen Mother's reception, the most conspicuous of which were several Mongolian ministers who stayed in the capital.

It was Xiao Quanzi who came to pick up Tong Guogang, and he led the eldest prince all the way to avoid the ladies in the palace and quickly arrived at Jingren Palace.

However, coming from the north, he had to pass by Chengqian Palace, Tong Guogang just walked with his head down, and didn't look over there, but Xiaoquanzi said: "Son, don't get in the way, Concubine Xian Niangniang is in the Qianqing Palace every morning, and she can't meet it." ”

Tong Guogang was speechless, and only raised his head when he entered the door of Jingren Palace.

"Xuan Ye, who do you see coming?" Suddenly hearing his sister's voice, Tong Guogang turned around.

I saw my sister come out of the East Side Hall with the third elder brother, squatting beside Xuan Ye, pointing at herself and saying, "Xuan Ye, this is the eldest uncle, do you recognize it?" ”

Tong Guogang has seen his nephew many times, he can probably count it on two hands, how can a two-and-a-half-year-old child recognize any uncle, but Eniang said that it was an uncle, and Xuan Ye called uncle, and when he saw a tall and powerful person, he ran over happily.

"The minister knocked to see Concubine Tong, and knocked to see the third elder brother." Tong Guogang saluted his sister and nephew.

"Brother, you hug Xuan Ye." Yuan Xi smiled, "Let Xuan Ye recognize you well." ”

Tong Guogang agreed, leaned over and picked up his nephew, Xuan Ye was in his arms, and he looked more and more petite, but the third elder brother who was lifted up was very happy, Yuan Xi came over and asked, "Xuan Ye, do you like uncle?" ”

Xuan Ye nodded, stared at his uncle carefully, reached out and touched his face, and smiled with crooked eyebrows.

"The third elder brother is like when you were a child." Tong Guogang said, "It's very like." ”

"It would be nice if it was a female doll, and if she looks as good as me in the future, the Queen Mother will definitely like it more." Yuan Xi said with a smile, but the smile gradually faded, and even a little heavy, "It's still ...... Save yourself a lot of trouble. ”

Tong Guogang looked around vigilantly, Yuan Xi told him not to be nervous, the brother and sister entered the door, Guogang asked, "Xi'er, is there something important?" ”

Yuan Xi shook his head and said with a smile: "I asked my brother to bring fun to Xuan Ye, did you forget?" ”

Guogang said: "The family worried all night and forgot about it. ”

Pomegranate came to serve tea and said with a smile: "It's all to blame Miss for chattering, young master, Miss is fine, I just want to invite you into the palace and get familiar with the third elder brother." ”

Guogang was stunned, looked at Xuan Ye in his arms, who was studying his official mansion, and then looked at his sister.

Yuan Xi said: "I want Xuan Ye, I have been close to my uncle since I was a child, and in the future, my brother will enter the palace once a month, and if he doesn't do anything else, he will play with Xuan Ye and let him remember you well." When Guowei grows up, he also wants Guowei to enter the palace, so that Xuan Ye knows since he was a child that his uncle is good. ”

Guogang ordered Pomegranate to take the third elder brother away, and looked at his sister seriously: "Xi'er, do you want to?" ”

Yuan Xi lowered his eyes and said: "A family, one is prosperous and one is lost, my brother doesn't have to think about what I'm trying to do, we are inseparable." ”

"Xi'er, there are legends outside, the emperor is likely to abolish the queen again, and make Concubine Xian the queen." Tong Guogang said, "What do you think? ”

Yuan Xi is no longer the silly girl who waited for her brother to give her a big elbow in the middle of the night, she said to her brother very calmly: "I must keep the queen, with the emperor's temper, Horqin is to send more women, and the emperor will not have children with them." But the queen loves Xuan Ye, and in the future, she will definitely treat Xuan Ye as her own. ”

Tong Guogang became more and more nervous, and he realized what Yuan Xi was fighting for.

But my sister looked calm and was not devoured by *, Yuan Xi smiled: "Brother, don't be nervous, I have a sense of proportion, now that Xuan Ye is so young, who knows if he will be able to make a difference in the future." ”

Tong Guogang had to remind his sister: "Once there is an heir in Chengqian Palace, you'd better dispel this idea immediately, otherwise you will be an enemy of the emperor." ”

At this moment, in Cining Palace, Fulin and several Mongolian ministers were in front of the Queen Mother.

They came to see the queen mother, hoping that the emperor could take back his fate, even if he was demoted by one level and canonized the concubine for the time being, it would be better than ascending to the sky and directly sealing the imperial concubine.

Fu Lin asked them coldly, "Are you so unconfident in your queen?" ”

Yu'er closed her eyes in disappointment, opened them again, and said, "You guys step back first, and I'll talk to the emperor alone." ”
