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

Jiang Shiying said matter-of-factly: "You and the Queen Mother are already very noble people, so why does he need to talk about this? Isn't everyone aware of this?"

Lu Zhaolin laughed, and then praised her: "Ah Ying was very witty today, which even impressed me."

Jiang Shiying looked at him with a bit of pride in her eyes: "I told you before that I am smart. How about it? I didn't lie to you, did I?"

When Lu Zhaolin thought about it, it seemed that it was indeed the case.

Regardless of whether she faced difficulties from the queen or the noble concubine, she had never been stumped. On the contrary, she always came out slightly better.

She is just too straightforward and impulsive, not brainless.

Then, he suddenly remembered that the imperial concubine seemed to be uncharacteristically speaking for Jiang Shiying and standing on her side today.

Thinking like this, he asked directly: "The relationship between you and the imperial concubine seems to be good now?"

"Ah? No." Jiang Shiying was confused.

"Didn't the noble concubine still speak for you today?" Lu Zhaolin asked.

"Isn't it true that the imperial concubine will target the queen whenever she finds an opportunity?" Jiang Shiying asked in return.

Lu Zhaolin thought about it. At first, it was the queen who first said that evil spirits were among the new concubines who entered the palace, and then Jiang Shiying refuted it with the contents of the storybook. After that, the imperial concubine grasped this point and began to pull on the queen.

From this point of view, the concubine's singing and beating today were really not to help Jiang Shiying, but she just wanted to step on the queen when she found an opportunity.

His mind was spinning rapidly, but he said: "You have such a mouth, you really dare to say anything."

Jiang Shiying winked at him playfully, but she thought to herself, I haven't talked about you yet. You have a hundred and eighty tricks of your own. You are also suspicious of this and that. It's really not tiring.

That night, Lu Zhaolin rested in Jiangxue Pavilion without any surprise.

Within a few days, it was time for the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet.

The queen was originally in charge of all arrangements for the palace banquet. The queen was grounded and everything was handed over to the imperial concubine.

The palace banquet was in the evening, and as soon as it got dark, Jiang Shiying led people to the Yanbo Palace.

When passing the Jiuqu Bridge on the road, from a distance, I saw an old nanny with a mean look, slapping a little palace maid in the face.

Jiang Shiying frowned and told Yu Chengyi, "Go and see what's going on."

Yu Chengyi took the order and left.

Who in this palace does not know that Chungui Concubine is the person most valued by His Majesty, and that Yu Chengyi is the great eunuch who works under Chungui Concubine.

As soon as he walked over, the old nanny changed her previous arrogance, and her face was filled with flattery.

Yu Chengyi said a few words to her, and she nodded in agreement.

When Cheng Yi came back, he reported: "Reporting to the queen, that nanny is just looking for an excuse to rub the little palace maid under her hands."

Seeing that Jiang Shiying was a little displeased, he added, "I gave her a few nods. I think this little palace maid's life will be easier in the future."

Jiang Shiying nodded and said: "Whether it is in the palace or in the palace, such things must be commonplace."

Yu Chengyi said: "Your Majesty is kind-hearted and considers the plight of the slaves. Only other masters are willing to take care of these things."

As he spoke, he arrived at the Yanbo Palace.

For tonight's palace banquet, many concubines have carefully dressed up from head to toe, hoping to win His Majesty's approval.

However, no matter how ingenious the clothes or the carefully painted makeup were, they were unable to fight back against Jiang Shiying's natural beauty that was both fairy-like and demon-like.

As soon as Fang entered the palace, she attracted everyone's attention.

As for the concubine, everyone spends time with her every day, so they are somewhat resistant to her beauty.

On the other side of the clan, this was the first time they saw her, and everyone was stunned for a long time.

Then, there was a whispered conversation:

"I have long heard that Chun Gui is beautiful, but I never imagined that she is truly stunning."

"Your Majesty is so lucky."

"If you ask me, it's time for Concubine Li to change her title. The word 'Li' should be changed to pure noble concubine."

"No wonder His Majesty loves her so much. Such a beauty will have to ask for stars but not the moon when she enters any house."

Jiang Shiying's ears were far better than ordinary people's, and he picked up these conversations without a sound. There was no expression on his face, and he sat down as usual.

Prince Jing was also with the clan. After seeing Jiang Shiying, he greeted her from afar, and Jiang Shiying waved slightly in response.

The concubines all had a seat for two, and the person sitting at the same table as Jiang Shiying happened to be Ning Concubine, who had frequent contacts with her these days.

"I have seen the noble concubine."

"Sister Ning Bin, there is no need to be polite."

Jiang Shiying quickly supported her, and then the two looked at each other and smiled.

After chatting and joking for a while, they saw that the concubines' side and the clan's side were already full.

After a while, the two queen mothers arrived belatedly.

Lu Zhaolin arrived at the finale. As soon as he arrived, except for the two queen mothers, everyone stood up and saluted: "Meet your majesty."

"Be flat."

Then, he walked to the top and sat on the throne.

Looking down, everyone seemed to have their faces blurred, and only Jiang Shiying could be seen at a glance.

She usually wears bright colors, and she can really hold them down. They always complement each other and are shockingly beautiful.

Today, she is wearing a light pink flowing skirt.

Even in a place like the harem, where beauties gather, few people would dare to wear such a color for fear of appearing dark and earthy.

However, when this color was worn on Jiang Shiying, it made her look like a new summer lotus, standing tall and graceful.

Perhaps because of the shock of beauty at this moment, Lu Zhaolin was stunned for a moment and then said: "Everyone, sit down."

Then, he first said some Mid-Autumn Festival greetings, and finally concluded: "Today is a family banquet, so you don't have to be restrained."

After everyone saluted and said "obey the order", the banquet officially began.

The sound of wind instruments, strings and bamboos has not yet started, and the dancers from the Yuefu are about to enter the stage one after another.

At this time, I suddenly heard the Empress Dowager, the empress dowager, say: "Yuan Baolin, come and propose a toast to the emperor."

After the words fell, everyone in the four houses fell silent.

Ning Bin whispered to Jiang Shiying: "The Queen Mother, do you like her or hate her?"

Logically speaking, the first glass of wine at a palace banquet should be served by the queen to the emperor. Even if the queen is absent, the concubine should take the lead, and the rest of the concubines will follow according to their positions.

It happened that the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother, pushed Yuan Baolin out in such a hurry, making her the target of public criticism.

Didn’t you see me?

The concubines in the palace, from the noble concubine to the noble concubine, were all waiting to see how Yuan Baolin would serve the first glass of wine. The look in their eyes was like they were looking at a joke.

On the other side of the clan, the princes, princesses and consorts were all extremely curious, who was this Yuan Baolin?

Yuan Baolin was about to cry inside, but he still pretended to be calm and stood up and said: "I would like to propose a toast to the two Queen Mothers, Your Majesty, the Imperial Concubine, and all my sisters."

She didn't dare to respect His Majesty alone, so she could only bring everyone in the palace with her.

Lu Zhaolin didn't want to embarrass her, but he took a sip to save his face, and then told her: "Sit down."

Putting His Majesty's attitude here, the other concubines headed by the imperial concubine also drank from this cup one after another. This turmoil seemed to have disappeared.

Jiang Shiying continued to listen to Ning Bin sharing gossip with her.

"I heard that these days, the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother, asks Yuan Baolin to deliver things to His Majesty from time to time."

Jiang Shiying said: "The Queen Mother may be anxious. After all, among the three newcomers who came to escape the summer heat, she is the only one who has not slept with her yet."

Ning Bin first looked around, then leaned close to her ear and chuckled: "It is said that your Majesty had a quarrel with his mother, the Queen Mother, a few days ago."

Jiang Shiying said: "Oh? Is there anything else?"

Ning Bin's voice became even lower: "The Queen Mother asked Your Majesty to favor Yuan Baolin, but Your Majesty refused. Your Majesty said that he only let Yuan Baolin enter the palace so that she could accompany the Queen Mother."

What this means is that he has never regarded Yuan Baolin as his concubine, and has no intention of favoring her.

Ning Bin had always been gentle and calm, but her tone at this time was inevitably a bit gloating.

When Jiang Shiying heard this, she couldn't laugh at all.

This is the Tianjia. They obviously have no masculine meaning towards Yuan Tingyu, but just for the words "accompanying the Queen Mother", they have imprisoned a woman's life in this deep palace wall.

Jiang Shiying herself seemed to be deeply favored, but in fact, His Majesty's indulgence towards her was not without temptation.

Thinking like this, she couldn't help but drink two more drinks.
