Chapter 101: The Jade Family Comes
The woman who spoke was Yu Zhaoyuan, and she was also the one who had some old friends with Concubine Shu, and later returned to Ningzhou after being ordered to return to Ningzhou, Yu Zhaoyuan was born in the Yu family in Ningzhou, and she was considered a small family in Ningzhou, and the official rank in the family was not very high, so her position was not very high when she entered the palace, and she was not favored.
However, Yu Zhaoyuan is a person who is very good at drilling, so she can rely on the left and right sources to climb up to the position of the second grade little by little, but since she returned to the Yu family in Ningzhou, the Yu family naturally wants to treat her well on the surface, but because she is afraid of trouble, she only confines him in her room, she is not even free to go out, she can only stay in the Yu family every day.
Yu Zhaoyuan already understands that she can only get better treatment if she helps the family, but she is a little annoyed with the Yu family, feeling that they are mercenary and do not remember the old feelings, but she is a little helpless, because of her identity, where can she go as a weak woman?
Therefore, Yu Zhaoyuan has communicated with the wife of the He Yu family many times openly and secretly, because she has been in the palace for many years and is the head of the first palace, so she has some experience, and the knowledge of the Yu family is not as good as her, so many things will come to ask her.
There are also other members of the Yu family, after all, the current qualifications of the head of the Yu family are not mediocre, if you want to make the Yu family more prominent in Ningzhou, then you have to think of some other way.
For example, although she is just an unfavored Zhaoyuan, but because of her high grade, it can be regarded as bringing a lot of benefits to the Yu family, in the past, when the Yu family was in Ningzhou, it could only be regarded as a third-rate family, but because of her as a concubine, she already lived in a second-rate family, and even ranked among the first-class families in Ningzhou.
As soon as the rest of the Yu family said that there was a master of a second-grade palace concubine at home, it would be more convenient to do things.
It's just that Yu Zhaoyuan has been released from the palace now, and the Yu family has relied on her decency, but now it is just the end of a second-rate family, and even because the Yu family has no talent now, and there is a posture of returning to a third-rate family, and the head of the Yu family is naturally unwilling to do this, but he is quite mediocre and a little helpless.
And Yu Zhaoyuan has always been an observant, and when she thought about it, she knew their respective thoughts, so she slowly persuaded and gained the trust of the head of the Yu family and others little by little, and elevated her position in the Yu family.
Yu Zhaoyuan first wrote a letter to the old friends in the palace who she knew before and who were now released from the house, and then finalized the marriage between the woman of the Yu family and the son of an uncle in Beijing.
Although the son of the Bofu is not a lord, but for the Yu family, which is now just a small family, it can be regarded as a good marriage, at least according to their connections, they can't reach this, so the Yu family is quite proud.
After that, Yu Zhaoyuan selected the most outstanding women of the Yu family, deliberately cultivated what they were good at, and then when choosing a concubine in the palace, he chose the most outstanding one.
But this time, the status of the concubines who entered the palace was not high, and there were many people in the middle who were higher than the Yu family's family background, and the women sent out were all defeated, but the Yu family had a girl in the palace, which can be regarded as a matter of face, if the position is low, it will rise little by little, and the previous Yu Zhaoyuan was not high when she entered the palace, and she climbed to the position of the second product little by little.
And because of these two things, Yu Zhaoyuan is a little more powerful in the Yu family.
And Qin Wangfu's side is also because he remembered the friendship with Shu Taifei in the past, to be honest, the arrangement of Omenyuan these days, coupled with the more and more flattery, still makes him a little proud, he is inevitably a little complacent, remembering his interaction with Shu Taifei in Chongqing when he was in the palace in the past, Yuzhao Yuanshi was elected to the palace a few times earlier than Shu Taifei.

Although she has always been unfavored, she has always been better with the favored concubines, so His Majesty is a little light on him, and occasionally remembers to promote her to a higher position when he is crosswinded.
Later, as soon as Concubine Shu attacked at that time, Yu Zhaoyuan saw her appearance and knew that she must be a favored person, so she secretly used a little means to divide Concubine Shu into her Lijing Xuan.
At that time, she was quite friendly to Concubine Shu, who had just entered the palace and was still a little ignorant, and even taught each other a lot
things, Concubine Shu is also quite dependent on her because of this, and sure enough, as she expected, the other party is very favored, and Yu Jieyu was also very smart at that time, and she did not run to compete with the other party for favor on the surface, after all, she knew that this would be of no other use except to make the other party jealous of her.
So Yu Zhaoyuan has always behaved very quietly, and even when Concubine Shu was ridiculed, ridiculed and embarrassed by other concubines in the harem because she was favored, she also defended the other party for a few words, which also attracted Concubine Shu to become closer to her, and occasionally mentioned her in front of His Majesty, so although Yu Zhaoyuan did not have many opportunities to sleep, His Majesty would occasionally come to her for a meal or something.
It's just that Concubine Shu's position has risen too fast, which makes her a little jealous, and even soon the other party will be in the position of Zhengsanpin Jieyu with her, you must know that this is the position she got after how much calculation and planning, and the other party got it so easily.
Even because the other party still had a title at that time, and there was also a favor, so it was higher than her status as Jieyu, who had no title, and when she saw the other party, she had to bow her head to the other party.
Yu Zhaoyuan was very disgusted in her heart, but she was a person who was very good at disguise and could endure, and she had always pretended to be friendly with Concubine Shu, but behind her back, she looked coldly at others calculating against her, looking at each other's dazed and ignorant appearance, and sometimes she would laugh at each other's stupidity.
But such a person who is not as smart as her, but she still climbed to the position of the second grade, and when she became the first rank of the concubine, Yu Zhaoyuan was also canonized as the second rank of the second grade, but she was always one level lower than the other party, and later I don't know why, Yu Zhaoyuan felt that the concubine was a lot colder to her.
Since the other party was promoted to Jieyu and moved to other palaces, the relationship between the two is still close, but since the other party was canonized as a concubine, he has been very cold to her, usually just smiled and nodded when they met, and rarely chatted with Yu Zhaoyuan alone, and rarely went to Lijingxuan where she lived.
Yu Zhaoyuan only looked down on her because of the other party's high position, so she looked down on her a little, and she deliberately flattered her a few times, looking at the other party's lukewarm attitude, Yu Zhaoyuan didn't go to please again, after all, according to her current grace, if she wants to climb to the position of the concubine, it is really impossible, even from the position of the first grade.
What she has to do now is to make friends with all the concubines in the six palaces, after all, she has a high position now, but she has no favor, and she is not a big competitor for those people, and then Yu Zhaoyuan left the palace later, and Concubine Shu stayed in the palace because of King Jing.
The two have actually not been in touch for a long time, but this time when they heard about the matter in Pingcheng, Yu Zhaoyuan inquired many times, and chatted with the head of the Yu family again, and decided to visit in person.
Therefore, she also deliberately borrowed to live in the Zheng family, and the Zheng family did arrange for her quite properly because of her relationship with Concubine Shu, but Yu Zhaoyuan handed over several copies of the greetings to King Jing's mansion, but the other party said that it was a little inconvenient, and later Yu Zhaoyuan asked the son of the Zheng family who went to Pingcheng to do things to ask again, and Concubine Shu only said that she would come to her to meet one day.
But Yu Zhaoyuan was quite anxious, she had been here for enough days, and the head of the Yu family in Ningzhou was also very anxious to urge her to return to Ningzhou sooner, looking at it might be to return in vain, Yu Zhaoyuan was naturally dissatisfied, so this time she decided to come here to visit in person.
Yu Zhaoyuan didn't believe that she came to Pingcheng in person, and the other party could avoid it like this again, and if the other party avoided it again this time, then she would go back to Ningzhou directly and not care about the affairs in Pingcheng.
And the little maid she was close to didn't dare to delay after listening to her instructions, and was busy arranging it, Yu Zhaoyuan thought slightly when she saw this, wait a minute, if she saw Concubine Shu, how should she get closer to the relationship between the two, and then thought of Yu Xiu, who came to Pingcheng with her, she couldn't help frowning.
Yu Xiu is the second daughter of the head of the Yu family, at first Yu Zhaoyuan planned to bring another woman from the side branch of the Yu family, after all, the other party's background may not be as good as Yu Xiu, but she is calm and generous, and she has a bit of a beautiful demeanor.
Yu Zhaoyuan knew very well that even if Concubine Shu took care of her feelings and connected the daughter of the Yu family to the palace, according to the identity of their Yu family, it was just a canonization of Confucianism or something.
Even the side concubines are not qualified enough, and this means that once you enter the palace, you have to be quietly patient, and even avoid the edge of others.
And Yu Xiu is too reckless, not only reckless but also very arrogant, doing things arrogantly, Yu Zhaoyuan deliberately taught the other party a few times, although she seems to listen to it on the surface, but when she does things, she is still frizzy, she is like this, Yu Zhaoyuan wants her to marry.
Although the status of the next marriage is not high, if in Ningzhou, there is a Yu family pressing on it, then she will not be bullied, but as soon as the head of the Yu family heard her suggestion, he was very unhappy and refused.
In his opinion, Yu Xiu is his second daughter, who was pampered and raised, and should marry into a high family, so he denied Yu Zhaoyuan's opinion, saying that if she wants to come to Pingcheng, she can only bring Yu Xiu here.
As soon as she thought of this, Yu Zhaoyuan couldn't help frowning, and as soon as the maid on the other side of the concierge said that someone came to visit, the concierge originally refused to say that the master was missing, but the maid handed him a big purse, saying that it was someone who was known to Concubine Shu in the past, and asked the concierge to go in and spread it.
