The rebirth of a concubine: Gong Du will become the Queen Mother

After Jiang Shiying thanked him, he took the imperial edict with both hands.

Yao Xingde helped her up diligently and said, "Quickly please get up, pure concubine. I would like to congratulate you on your great joy of being crowned concubine."

The palace people who were kneeling on the ground also shouted loudly at this time: "Servants (servants) congratulate the queen on her great happiness in becoming a concubine."

Jiang Shiying's eyes were smiling and she said, "Everyone, get up. All the waiters in Jingyang Palace will be rewarded with a month's worth of money."

Then, she looked at Yao Xingde and said, "Thank you, Eunuch Yao. I went to Jingyang Palace several times today and brought good news to me every time."

Yao Xingde cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, you are so polite. This is my slave's honor."

Then, I heard him say: "After the queen is granted the title of concubine, as a rule, she can set up a small kitchen in the palace."

This matter was something His Majesty specifically asked him to do when he came out of Ganquan Palace.

Yao Xingde thought in his heart at that time, there is a huge difference between His Majesty's caring and not caring.

As a rule, the concubine can have a small kitchen, but she has to ask the Majesty or the Queen for permission to start the construction.

Concubine Yu and Concubine Fang were named concubines years ago, and it has been more than two months now. They didn't ask for the order themselves, so Lu Zhaolin didn't think of this incident at all, and the queen wouldn't take the initiative to mention it.

In Concubine Chun's case, it was Lu Zhaolin who announced the concubine's decree. Before the decree was announced, he asked him to arrange the kitchen.

Jiang Shiying said: "This is great. It will be much more convenient if you want to eat or use it in the future. I just don't know how many days it will take for this small kitchen to be built?"

Yao Xingde said: "Jingyang Palace already has a small kitchen, and it only needs a little repair. No matter what, the queen can use the meals cooked in the small kitchen within two days."

Jiang Shiying nodded first, then frowned and said, "But in my Jingyang Palace, there is no one who is good at cooking."

Yao Xingde smiled and said: "Why should the empress bother about this matter? Your Majesty has already given the order, and the servant will choose the eunuch and cook for you, and then send them to Jingyang Palace together."

Hearing this, a smile spread across Jiang Shiying's face, like the sun rising after the rain, and she heard her say: "Your Majesty has always been thinking of me."

Yao Xingde thought to himself, darling, what kind of man would not be able to remember such a charming face? Even though he had been with His Majesty for so many years and was not considered a real man, he couldn't hold back just now and was in a daze.

But he quickly came to his senses and asked, "I wonder if your Majesty has any preferences in terms of taste?"

Jiang Shiying said: "I like meat rather than vegetarian food, sweet rather than salty food."

Yao Xingde nodded and said, "I'll take note of it and I'll send it to you tomorrow."

Jiang Shiying first said: "Thank you, Eunuch Yao."

Then, I heard her say: "I know that Your Majesty will definitely be inseparable from Eunuch Yao's service, so I won't keep you any longer. Yu Chengyi——"

Yu Chengyi heard the sound and stepped forward to listen to her instructions.

Jiang Shiying said: "Wrap a big red envelope for Eunuch Yao and all the young father-in-laws who came with Eunuch Yao to announce the decree, so we can feel the joy together."

Yao Xingde took several young eunuchs from Ganquan Palace to salute: "Thank you, Concubine Chun, for the reward."

After Yao Xingde took the people away, Huaping took a few steps forward and said, "My slave, I pay my respects to the pure concubine."

Jiang Shiying handed the imperial edict to Qiu Yu and said, "Get up, why is Miss Huaping here?"

Huaping lowered his head and said respectfully: "The Queen learned that you were pregnant with the emperor's heir, and ordered the slaves to come and announce the reward."

Jiang Shiying said: "Thank you very much, Queen, for your concern."

But there was no gesture of thanks.

There was no displeasure on the screen. Instead, she smiled and said, "The Queen is the master of the harem and the legitimate mother of the child in your belly. She should care about you and your child."

Jiang Shiying looked her over and said, "I have always said that Miss Huaping is silent and quiet. Unexpectedly, you are also very smart."

Huaping bowed and said, "Thank you very much for your compliment."

Jiang Shiying said: "With a smart person like Miss Huaping serving by the Queen's side, I feel relieved."

Huaping said: "It is the duty of a slave to serve the Queen well."

Jiang Shiying chuckled softly: "If there is nothing else, please retreat. I am a little tired."

Huaping bowed again and then left with the people from Fengyi Palace.

Jiang Shiying looked at her back and said, "Not everyone around the Queen is stupid."

In Fengyi Palace.

Before Huaping came back, the queen received the news that Jiang Shiying was conferred as a concubine.

Although she had long known in her heart that given Jiang Shiying's popularity, it was only a matter of time before she was granted the title of concubine.

However, when this day actually came, it was still a little hard to accept.

In less than a year, she went from the position of concubine to the second rank of concubine.

Further up, there are only the positions of the fourth concubine and the imperial concubine.

Your Majesty, will you give her the position of imperial concubine?

The queen's eyelids were drooped and her eyes were filled with haze. She murmured: "No, I don't allow it."

······

At dinner time that day, Qingshan personally sent a nanny to Jingyang Palace.

As soon as they saw Jiang Shiying's face, the two of them bowed and said, "My slave, I pay my respects to the pure concubine."

"Please get up quickly." As he spoke, Jiang Shiying glanced at Qingshan and said, "Auntie, really, why are you doing such a big gift in front of me?"

Qingshan smiled and said: "The Queen is very happy to be crowned a concubine, so naturally this slave will give me a big gift."

Jiang Shiying said: "I have received your aunt's wishes. Since you are here to congratulate me, aunt, don't refuse the red envelope from me, and let's have fun together."

While talking, Qiu Yu handed the red envelope to Qingshan, and the nanny who came with Qingshan didn't miss it either.

The two of them saluted and said, "Thank you, Madam, for the reward."

Jiang Shiying smiled, and this incident was over.

Then, she looked at the nanny next to Qingshan.

This nun looked to be in her fifties, with a fair and kind face, a slight stoutness, and her clothes and hair were meticulous.

Jiang Shiying asked: "What do you call me, mama?"

"Slave Wan Shi pays homage to Concubine Chun."

Jiang Shiying said: "Mother Wan, please get up."

Aunt Wan said: "Thank you, empress."

On the side, Qingshan introduced: "Aunt Wan has been with the Queen Mother for many years. When the Queen Mother was pregnant with His Majesty, and also when she was pregnant with His Highness Prince Jing, Aunt Wan was by her side to serve her."

Jiang Shiying said with a smile: "This is great. I am happy that I am pregnant, but I am also worried and scared. Now that Aunt Wan is here, I feel confident."

Aunt Wan was not arrogant, she just said: "I will do my best to serve you well."

Jiang Shiying allocated a room alone for Aunt Wan, and allocated two little maids to serve her.

After Qingshan left, Jiang Shiying said: "Nanny Wan, please go and rest first, don't be in a hurry to be on duty."

After Wan Wan resigned, she returned to Dongnuan Pavilion in less than half an hour.

Jiang Shiying said: "Mommy is too diligent, so I won't be able to start my duty again from tomorrow."

Aunt Wan blessed her body: "Your Majesty's generosity is my blessing. I thought about it and checked the decorations and playthings in the main hall, as well as the things My Majesty uses every day, the jewelry she usually wears, etc. as soon as possible to avoid Something inappropriate has hurt the little prince in the mother's womb."

This is business. After hearing this, Jiang Shiying said: "Then I'll have a lot of work for you, Grandma Wan."

Then, she ordered Xiao Xuanzi and Hongying: "Follow Aunt Wan and obey my orders."

At the beginning of Haishi, when Lu Zhaolin came, he only inspected the inner rooms of the dormitory.

In order not to affect Jiang Shiying's rest, Nanny Wan retreated from the dormitory and led people to inspect the Dongnuan Pavilion where she usually loved to stay.

Jiang Shiying originally said: "Don't be in a hurry for this day."

Aunt Wan said: "I only hope that when the empress rests in Dongnuan Pavilion tomorrow, the entire Dongnuan Pavilion will be clean."

Seeing her persistence, Jiang Shiying could only let her go.

At this time, A Yuan was combing her hair and said, "Mama Wan is really serious and hard-working."

Jiang Shiying said: "Nanny Wan's monthly money will definitely be given to you by Shoukang Palace. Our palace will give you a separate share."

Ah Yuan responded abruptly.

At this time, I heard a male voice at the door: "I look at the bright lights in Dongnuan Pavilion, what are you doing?"
