Jiang Fu took out the banknotes he had saved from his pocket, handed them to Mao Qian, and said, "This is all my savings. Although it's not much, it can prove my friendship."

"I, Jiang Fu, am definitely not a fickle person. My chastity in this life belongs only to my wife Mao Qian!" Jiang Fu suddenly swore righteously.

Mao Qian lowered her head and smiled. She was a person of strong character and definitely did not want to act clingy. If her husband was a good man, Mao Qian was willing to take care of the household affairs and do some small business to earn some money to make their lives better.

The flapping of butterfly wings in this life finally brought about several marriages.

Mao Qian doesn't have to be tied to a cowardly and unmotivated guard like Ling Yunche, and she has to remain a widow because of Ling Yunche's dirty thoughts. Jiang Fu is an honest man and will never go out to have affairs. The two of them can live a good life, and future twists and turns will not affect their happiness.

*Empress Xiaoxian passed away more than a year ago. The emperor listened to Langya's last words before her death, but he had his own considerations in his heart. Sometimes he wondered if Concubine Ling's life was too smooth, and promoting her to Imperial Noble Concubine too early might make people lazy.

The emperor wanted to test Yan Wan's character, so he did not act for a long time, even though many ministers of the previous dynasty had advised the emperor that it would not be a good thing for the empress to remain in the throne while the emperor was young and strong.

But he still insisted on postponing the matter, just to see whether Yan Wan, whom he valued, could keep her composure. If Yan Wan mentioned the matter of promotion to Imperial Noble Consort in front of him intentionally or unintentionally, then he would promote Concubine Chun to Imperial Noble Consort.

Fortunately, Yan Wan was able to withstand the test.

But he was not in a hurry. He wanted to wait for a while. He had to wait until the spring weather in March before considering such matters.

*The New Year's Day has passed, and the emperor is planning to tour the south. The palace ladies are also happy to do so. Going out for a walk is always better than being trapped here all the time. Before leaving, the emperor conferred titles on the six palaces, promoting Yupin to Yufei, Ruguiren to Rupin, Kegui to Kepin, Yinggui to Yingpin, Gong Changzai to Guiren, Xi Changzai to Guiren, and Zhao Da Ying to Changzai, but only the position of Imperial Noble Consort was left vacant.

Some people say that this position is reserved for Concubine Ru, otherwise why is the position of concubine vacant? Isn't it that the emperor wants to pave the way for Concubine Ru?

Some people also said that the emperor wanted to train Concubine Chun for some time. Although she was recommended by Empress Xiaoxian, she did not manage the affairs of the harem and was not worthy of the responsibilities of the empress. Perhaps the emperor wanted Concubine Chun to be busy during the southern tour and familiarize herself with the situation in advance.

Some people also said that the emperor could not decide who to choose as his empress. Imperial Concubine Ling was capable, but she was too young and had no sons. Imperial Concubine Chun did nothing, which made the emperor very confused.

But these were just idle talk. Most people were happy in their hearts, for their family’s promotion and for the upcoming journey.

Jin Yuyan just looked at the happy events of many people in the harem indifferently. Her heart was tired. She was like a dry sapling, quietly guarding a corner, waiting to die.

It is true that the emperor doted on her in the past, but now he treats her coldly because Jin Yuyan is disheartened and her smile is not attentive.

Jiapin was still as beautiful as a flower, stunningly gorgeous, but her face looked a little more haggard.

No matter how beautiful she is, if her eyes are as dull as wood, the emperor will not like her.

She was allowed to stay in the Forbidden City with the confined concubines and several concubines of lower rank, and all matters in the Forbidden City were handed over to her, with Jin Yuyan helping out.

On February 16, the Emperor, the Empress Dowager, Yan Wan and a group of others left the Forbidden City in a grand procession.

Watching the carriage carrying everyone away, Jin Yuyan's eyes rolled around awkwardly in her sockets. She turned around to leave, and a person jumped out from the corner, which really scared her, but she didn't scream at all.

Yongcheng said a little embarrassedly, "My son is so stupid that he didn't even scare mother."

Jin Yuyan raised the corner of her mouth, smiled slightly, and said, "Good boy, why are you here?"

Yongcheng pursed his lips and said, "I am worried about mother, so I asked to stay in the Forbidden City. My eighth brother is there, so I think he will be fine. Before my fifth brother left, I handed him over to him. Yongqi has always been friendly to his brothers, so I don't think anyone will bully my brother."

Jin Yuyan sighed, with a trace of self-blame on her face, "It's all mother's fault. She made your father dislike you, and that's why you are implicated by mother and have to stay in the Forbidden City."

"Yongcheng, you should have taken this opportunity to perform well in front of your royal father." Yuyan stroked her son's face and said sadly.

Yongcheng looked at his mother sincerely and said, "In my son's heart, mother is much more important than showing off in front of the emperor."

"Besides, the Emperor likes filial children, so he would also like his son to stay in the Forbidden City for his mother." Yongcheng smiled brightly. Jin Yuyan didn't want to reject the child's kindness, so she nodded and said, "Let's go."

*Jinzhong was much more anxious than Yanwan. He just wanted his master to ascend to a high position in an upright manner.

The emperor conferred titles on the six palaces, but did not mention the matter of the Imperial Noble Consort, as if he had forgotten about it.

Later, Yanwan and Jinzhong looked at the white fog carefully again. After Hailan became a servant in the princess's mansion, she saw that the fog in the air had become so light that it was almost gone.

Ruyi is probably already a dying fish and will no longer make any waves.

Yanwan was not worried. She had endured so much suffering in the past, so there was no reason why she couldn't bear it in this life. However, Jinzhong didn't want Yanwan to suffer the grievances of her previous life again.

Why did the emperor delay in conferring the title of Imperial Noble Consort? In her previous life, Ruyi had already become the Empress within half a year.

Jinzhong was anxious and resentful. Since his rebirth, the two of them had been extremely careful in their words and actions, fearing that something would be exposed and that it would affect their future plans. But now everything was going well, but it was stuck with the emperor.

Is it only when the emperor is blinded by the white silk that he would be so hasty to crown the empress?

But this has become a dead end.

Jinzhong would never allow Ruyi to become the queen.

But what can you do? The emperor is the ruler of a country, and no one can control him. Your repeated urging only makes him suspicious, suspecting that you are eyeing the position of queen, suspecting that you are thinking about the position of crown prince.

After thinking about it, there is only one way.

What Jinzhong did in the past, he can do in this life. In the past life, Yanwan became the Imperial Noble Consort because of this, and she will definitely do it in this life.

Jinzhong didn't want Yanwan to repeat the life she didn't like, so they couldn't just waste time like this, just quietly waiting for the emperor to act according to their plan. In the past, those things might have happened by chance, but today's long silence also made them aware that the emperor's mind was uncontrollable.

Playing with fire will only lead to burnt consequences. They cannot just put their hopes on the emperor being obedient.
