After rebirth, I became a treacherous minister Black Moonlight

It was Manager Qian who came to report the news.

Meng Qianqian was very confused and asked who summoned her and Lin Wan'er, but Manager Qian didn't know either.

But the other person was wearing the clothes of a eunuch in the palace, and was dressed similarly to the people who used to deliver salaries, charcoal and ice gifts to the old lady, so it could not be fake.

Meng Qianqian didn't know the other party's origins, but she was unclear about his identity and purpose.

She was born in the Meng family of Youzhou and had no connections with the nobles in the palace. Moreover, the other party summoned her and Lin Wan'er at the same time, which was most likely related to Lu Lingxiao.

"Miss, do you want to go and tell the old lady?"

Nanny Li suggested.

The old lady is the most senior person in the Lu family and the only one who has been summoned by the emperor.

In those years, the royal family was in turmoil and the throne almost fell into the hands of foreign relatives. It was the old grandfather who assisted the retired emperor in regaining the country. After the old grandfather passed away, the retired emperor came to the Lu family in person to express his condolences and performed the etiquette of a junior to the old lady.

Meng Qianqian shook her head: "If it is a blessing, it will not be a disaster. If it is a disaster, it cannot be avoided."

She couldn't involve her great-grandmother in everything. That was the imperial palace, not the Lu family.

Nanny Li sighed, "I am just worried about you, young lady. It would be fine if you were the only one summoned, but why is there that person from Fengyuan..."

Banxia was indignant: "That's right! How can she, a vixen, enter the palace?"

Banxia’s idea is very simple. The son-in-law has made great contributions at the border. As the son-in-law’s wife, the young lady may go to the palace to receive the reward. But there is no need to reward the vixen who seduced a married man!

Meng Qianqian said: "Pack up, Banxia, ​​follow me into the palace."

When the two arrived at the door, Lin Wan'er and Luluo also arrived.

Lin Wan'er was not wearing plain clothes this time. She wore an apricot-colored waisted long skirt with butterfly sleeves and a blue satin cloak. Her hair was tied up high and she replaced her pearl hairpins with a blue headband, highlighting her heroic spirit.

Meng Qianqian wore a red fur coat with white edges, revealing a hint of her peach-pink short jacket and snow-white Liuxian long skirt. Nanny Li skillfully combed her hair into a hanging bun, pinned it with a beautiful jade pearl flower and a gold hairpin with a peach core, making it neither ostentatious nor impolite.

She walked with measured steps, neither fast nor slow, like the morning glow reflecting the morning dew.

Lin Wan'er was full of heroic spirit, but in front of Meng Qianqian's vigor, she suddenly became somewhat insignificant.

The servants dared not say anything, but their eyes betrayed everything.

Green Radish rolled her eyes secretly.

Banxia whispered: "If Tan'er were here, I would poke her eyes out!"

A eunuch holding a whisk glanced at Meng Qianqian and said to Lin Wan'er, "Madam Lu, please get in the carriage."

The servants were surprised and looked at Meng Qianqian awkwardly.

Manager Qian pointed at Meng Qianqian and said awkwardly, "This is my eldest young master's wife."

The eunuch showed a hint of surprise in his eyes, and said to Meng Qianqian with a smile: "I am shortsighted and I made a mistake. Please forgive me, Madam Lu."

The servants looked at each other.

The eldest young lady's wife was dignified and well-dressed, and her every move and gesture showed the manners of a lady from an aristocratic family. Even her maid Banxia looked much more decent than Luoluo.

Can you admit your mistake?

Meng Qianqian knew very well that what was coming would eventually come.

Others might not be able to see it, but a eunuch who has been in the palace for many years would not be so blind.

This was the first sign of power I gave her today.

Meng Qianqian said calmly, "It's okay. May I ask, sir, which noble person summoned you?"

Green ivy on the side whispered to Lin Wan'er, "Miss, this is not the eunuch we saw with His Majesty last time."

Lin Wan'er signaled her not to say anything more.

The eunuch glanced at Lin Wan'er and said with a smile, "It was Concubine Li who summoned you."

Six years ago, the great marshal of Chu died in battle, and Emperor Chong'an fell ill and was unable to govern the country. The country could not be without a ruler for a day, so Emperor Chong'an passed the throne to the crown prince.

Unexpectedly, the crown prince died suddenly. Several princes fought to the death for the throne, but no one expected that the ninth prince, who was less than ten years old, would eventually ascend the throne.

And his biological mother was none other than the most beautiful woman in the Great Zhou Dynasty, Concubine Li.

The retired emperor promoted Concubine Li to Noble Concubine Li, and assisted in managing the six palaces.

Now, Concubine Li has the Phoenix Seal in her hand. Although she does not have the title of queen, she has the power of a queen.

There were rumors that Concubine Li had an affair with General Lu, which made Lu Yuan willing to be his subject and wholeheartedly assist the young emperor. It was said that even the prince was killed by Lu Yuan in order to pave the way for the young emperor.

In fact, the young emperor had long been dissatisfied with Lu Yuan, and the reason why he had not gotten rid of Lu Yuan and taken power himself was because of Concubine Li's dissuasion.

As long as Concubine Li is around, the relationship between the young emperor and Lu Yuan will be as solid as a rock.

The eunuch smiled and said, "Madam Lu, Miss Lin, please come in."

The four of them got on the palace carriage.

Probably in order to take care of Lin Wan'er's body, the carriage moved very slowly and it took an hour to arrive at the palace.

The two sedan chairs had been waiting for a long time.

The eunuch said in a friendly manner: "Miss Lin is pregnant, and the imperial concubine has prepared a sedan chair."

Banxia felt sorry for her young lady. What the hell was this eunuch saying? It was as if her young lady had benefited from that vixen!

However, she complained in her heart and did not show any dissatisfaction on her face.

Lin Wan'er bowed towards the harem.

Luluo quickly followed suit and bowed: "My lady thanks the Imperial Concubine!"

The palace servants looked at their noses with their eyes and their hearts with their noses, and all around was silent.

From the moment they entered the palace, everyone felt a tangible sense of oppression.

Banxia took a deep breath, not daring to make any mistakes and embarrass her young lady.

Meng Qianqian and Lin Wan'er got on the sedan chair.

Luoluo noticed that the eunuchs treated her young lady better, so she talked and laughed with the eunuchs along the way, as if she was deliberately trying to show how favored she was.

The eunuch answered patiently one by one.

The palace maids who were accompanying her actually looked down upon her behavior.

I'm giving you face, just accept it, don't take it for granted.

The other maid was much more polite and at least she was quiet and obedient.

Mother Lu was the daughter of a prominent family. Before she got married, her tutor taught the empress the rules in the palace. After Meng Qianqian got married, Mother Lu invited the tutor again to teach Meng Qianqian the same rules.

Banxia's rules were also supervised by the teaching nanny, and she was punished with a cane many times.

When we were waiting to get out of the sedan chair, the contrast was even more tragic.

As the mistress, Meng Qianqian did not get out of the sedan chair, but Luluo took the lead and lifted the curtain of Lin Wan'er's sedan chair. The curtain was swung high and almost hit the face of the accompanying palace servant.

"Miss! We're here!"

Green Radish said with a smile.

Lin Wan'er held her hand and helped her get out of the sedan chair.

Meng Qianqian sat in the sedan chair without moving, and Banxia stood beside it without moving either.

An accompanying palace servant reached out and gently lifted the curtain: "Madam Lu, please get out of the sedan chair."

Banxia then stepped forward and extended her hand to help her young lady.

Meng Qianqian lifted her white wrist slightly, her fingers as slender as green onions, and stepped down from the sedan chair gracefully and quietly. The golden tassels of her hairpin were shining brightly and barely swayed.

The palace servants nodded secretly.

This is what a legitimate wife of a noble family should be like.
