Chapter 367: Concubine Feng
As soon as the Dragon Boat Festival passed, the weather became hotter and hotter.
There are few people in the palace, and there are few rights and wrongs.
The Queen Mother is recuperating, except for the emperor and the little prince who occasionally go to sit and sit, the rest of the people are gone.
Before leaving, Concubine Song entrusted Chen Yuan to the Queen Mother, and with the little princess coming in and out of the Queen Mother's palace, life was barely so lonely.
The queen is pregnant, she is cautious, and she doesn't care about the affairs of the harem unless necessary.
Xinna's beauty Lu Qingluan didn't even go out of the palace gate. If it weren't for the emperor's going, the palace gate of Yuehua Palace seemed to be reluctant to open.
The only change is that there is a little eunuch with clear eyebrows next to the emperor, who replaces the position of Cheng's father-in-law, and follows the emperor in and out every day.
Fortunately, there are many palace maids and eunuchs around the emperor, one more and one less, and no one will pay more attention, although the little eunuch followed the emperor to the court, he has been quietly staying in the corner, not a person with a heart, and he can't notice that the emperor has changed people around him.
The people in the palace were as cautious and cautious as ever, and the people outside the palace, because of the new arrivals in the palace, their minds floated.
The emperor's harem is really space, except that the queen is the new Lu beauty.
Now that the queen is pregnant, she can't serve the emperor, if the harem doesn't enter again, the new beauty who enters the palace can only dominate the emperor's bed!
Even if the beauty is the only favorite, the prince of this harem is rare, if it only comes from the womb of the queen and Lu Meiren, I don't know how many people in the court are unwilling.
On the morning of this day, the emperor's face was unusually ugly, and even the emperor's most trusted father-in-law, Cheng, was reprimanded by the emperor.
Soon the queen mother and the queen's palace got the news, saying that some courtiers mentioned that they wanted the emperor to draft a draft in the early court, and after the emperor refutated it, some courtiers did not give up, saying that the beauty selected by the emperor was too low to be worthy of being a concubine.
The emperor was angry and ignored the opposition of the courtiers to promote Lu Meiren to Zhaoyi, and even Lu Quan, who raised Lu Zhaoyi's adulthood, was also named Huai'an Hou from the third grade, hereditary, and named Lu Quan's wife Qiu as his wife, enjoying the third-class lady's fortune.
The palace of the former dynasty was given to Huai'an Hou's mansion, and Huai'an Hou's family entered Beijing to receive the reward on the same day.
The Queen Mother only nodded when she got the news, in fact, she already knew about it. When Yang Ge was named the county lord, Chen Quan asked her if she wanted to reward Lu Quan and his wife. It was the Queen Mother who refused for Biao Ge.
The Lu family's return to Jiangjiaba was also decided by the Queen Mother and Lu Yangge after discussion.
At that time, Zhou Guifei was eyeing the tiger, Chen Quan was in power, and in order to save the lives of the Lu family, they let them go back to Jiangjiaba.
Later, Lu Hebei ascended the throne and named Yang Ge as a princess, and the emperor wanted to give the Lu family and his wife a reward to thank the Lu family for their nurturing grace to Lu Yangge, but Lu Yangge still declined the emperor's reward for the Lu family and his wife.
This refusal was not the meaning of Lu Yangge alone, but the decision made by Lu Yangge after sending someone to ask Lu Quan and his wife.
Lu Quan knew that his family was born poor, and he was a rich man in the countryside, and he really wanted to enter Beijing to be an official and a knight, but he was afraid that his low status would be despised by others.
Lu Yangge felt that the imperial power had been decided, and Lu Hebei sat down, and there was nothing for her in Beijing.
She didn't want to be bound by red tape and etiquette, and decided to go out to play in the mountains and rivers, it was okay if the Lu family didn't want to enter Beijing, she didn't know that someone bullied the Lu family in Beijing, so it was better for Lu to stay at ease in the countryside.
Until now, Lu Hebei was seriously ill, and Yang Ge had to live like a shadow in the harem. The emperor and the queen mother both felt that this time it was better to reward Lu Quan and his wife as Lu Meiren.
Lu Yangge also agreed with the decision of the emperor and the queen mother, and she had to stay in this palace for at least five years. By the time the little prince was able to govern diligently, the Lu family had already gained a firm foothold in Beijing at that time.
Lu Quan and his wife are just fine, but Lu Xizhou is still young, not to mention the future, at least she, as a sister, has to pave a broad road for him.
Lu Xiaoqing and Lu Xiaoli also have children, Lu Quan's family can enter Beijing, and the two sisters who have married can also bring their husbands and children to Beijing.
As long as she Lu Yangge is there, the Lu family will be stable in Beijing.
The queen was a little shocked when she got the news.
The emperor is not the kind of nepotism, and it didn't take long for Lu Meiren to enter the palace, although she was very pampered, but she was pampered to this point, so she couldn't help but be on guard.
As soon as the queen got the news, the Xiangye who returned to the mansion called Mrs. Gongsun to see him.
When Mrs. Gongsun heard that her father-in-law had summoned her, she was so frightened that she immediately sent someone to call her husband, Gongsun Changgeng, to go to the study in the front yard with her.
If her father-in-law is angry and her husband is there, someone can block her at best.
Mrs. Gongsun's birthday is not smart, but she still has the ability to avoid evil.
Xiangye is over sixty years old, with black beard and black hair, white and chubby, happy all day long, looking like a Buddha.
And only those who really know him know that this person is not as amiable as he seems, but very thoughtful.
As soon as Mrs. Gongsun entered the door of the study, she heard Xiangye ask, "What did you say to Wanying last time you entered the palace?" ”
"I ......"
Mrs. Gongsun was stunned for a moment and hesitated, "I just ...... I just knew that Wanying was pregnant, and I was a little worried in my heart, so I went to take a look. ”
Xiangye's face was like Maitreya, and he asked in a gentle tone, "Just to see?" ”
Mrs. Gongsun came back from the palace last time, in fact, she wanted to discuss with her father-in-law, it happened that Xiangye had been busy, going out early and returning late, Mrs. Gongsun waited twice and did not wait for anyone, and I heard that the princess brought Lu Qingluan, the adopted daughter of her adoptive parents, into the palace, and was named a beauty by the emperor, so she stopped thinking for the time being.
Now when the father-in-law asked, Mrs. Gongsun's original momentum was gone, and she said, "It's still ...... I also asked, Your Majesty wants to give Princess Changle a concubine. ”
"Nonsense."
Xiangye's face sank, and he slapped the table hard, "That's what I told you when Wanying married into the Qin Palace?" ”
Mrs. Gongsun fell to her knees: "Say...... said that he asked his daughter-in-law not to ask about anything in the Qin Palace. ”
"You remember!"
Xiangye couldn't help but regret a little at the moment, in order to avoid trouble for the family, he let his only son marry this stupid thing, thinking that although she is not smart, she is better than being honest and obedient.
Now, Wanying has entered the palace, and there is a queen mother in the palace, and Gongsun Xiangye is not afraid that something will go wrong with Wanying.
But such a stupid daughter-in-law has to find a way to let her have something to do, and she has no intention of making trouble for Wanying.
Xiangye was not angry with his daughter-in-law, so he could only wave his hand weakly and let her out: "Go and call Chang Geng in." ”
When Mrs. Gongsun heard that she could go out, she hurriedly got up and ran out with her skirt up.
Although her father-in-law may question her later, it is better than being scolded by her father-in-law.
Gongsun Xiangye and his son talked in the study for an afternoon, outsiders didn't know what the two of them said, only knew that Gongsun Changgeng personally entered the palace to see the queen.
When Huai'an waited for the whole family to enter Beijing, Gongsun Changgeng was the first to go to Huai'an Houfu with a generous gift.
Even in the palace, the queen personally sent the palace maids around her to give Lu Zhaoyi a generous gift.
