Prince in the same boat

"Huh?!" The teacup in the queen's hand couldn't help but pause, and there was a crisp crashing sound in the main hall of Kunning Palace. Even though the queen has always been dignified and calm, she was also surprised by Hanxiang's straightforward words.

"What do you mean by Princess Hanxiang's words? I... don't quite understand?" the queen asked solemnly.

As the mother of the country, Empress Nala has been in the high position for a long time. When she spoke solemnly, an invisible coercion radiated out, which made Hanxiang a little frightened!

"Empress, please be enlightened. As a woman from a foreign country, Hanxiang's background is far from being comparable to the ladies in the palace. Now that he is favored by the emperor, he is honored to serve the emperor, but Hanxiang's identity is after all..." Hanxiang was a little bit hesitant to speak And stop authentic.

"Princess Hanxiang, please be careful." Queen Nala said solemnly: "Is it the king's land in the whole world, and the king's subjects on the shore of the land. Since the emperor has sent troops to pacify Huijiang, the people who returned to Xinjiang are naturally all of us." A citizen of the Qing Dynasty, the status of the princess is special. She came to the court for the peace of Huijiang. In my Qing Dynasty, the princess is also the daughter of a prince, with a noble status. Although she dare not compare with the noble daughter Gege of the Mongolian tribes, there is not much difference. If it comes to status, think about the concubine Ling of Yanxi Palace , isn’t she born as a...princess, please don’t say that!”

"Please empress empress, Hanxiang knows the mission and responsibility on her body, so she came to ask empress to protect her. Hanxiang came from a long way, and she doesn't understand many rules. It is not thanks to the kindness of the empress dowager and empress empress, who have treated Hanxiang a lot. There is a gift to take care of her, but Hanxiang is afraid that if she doesn't understand the rules, she will do something wrong in the future, so she hopes to get some advice from the empress, and ask her to help her." Hanxiang said cautiously.

The Queen seemed to be thinking about something, and the entire Kunning Palace was in an extremely oppressive silence.After a while, the queen smiled and said: "Princess Hanxiang is too worried. The princess came here to return to Xinjiang and make peace with the Qing Dynasty. She has an extraordinary status. She has the emperor's favor and protection. This palace is just relying on the emperor. As long as it is a matter of the harem, I will do my best. As for the matter of protection that the princess just said, this... I don’t want to mention it again.”

Hanxiang was a little anxious, she knew that the queen actually didn't trust herself, so she didn't dare to agree.

"Empress Empress..." Han Xiang gritted her teeth, anxiously took out a porcelain vase from her sleeve, and said, "Han Xiang is willing to be loyal to Empress, to dedicate herself...to dedicate her whole life to Empress."

"What is the princess doing?!" The queen's eyes were stern, she stared at the porcelain bottle in Hanxiang's hand and said, "What is this?"

"Report to Empress, this is saffron..." Hanxiang looked at the queen and said firmly.

"What!" The queen was startled, her face suddenly changed.

Saffron is an inferior medicine. Once a woman eats too much by mistake, the pregnant woman may have an abortion, and the young girl may be infertile for life!

If the woman in this palace loses the opportunity to have a child, no matter how much she can overwhelm the country and the city, she will end up with the grace...

The queen looked at Hanxiang, staring at her intently, as if she was thinking about her sincerity and credibility.

"Princess, don't be like this. In this palace, as long as you treat me sincerely, I know very well. So there is no need to express any loyalty..." The queen smiled slightly, looked directly at Hanxiang and said: "Who is my own, I will The palace is clear."

"Hanxiang is willing to serve your empress all her life and be her encouragement." Hanxiang quickly left her seat and knelt down.

"The status of the princess is a bit special. She came here for the peace of the frontier. She left home thousands of miles and came to a foreign country. Even this palace admires such a moral behavior. The princess will be canonized in a short time. Originally, according to the rules of the Qing Dynasty, it was Mongolia. When a noble girl enters the palace for the first time, she can only get the title of a noble person. But according to this palace, a mere noble person really wronged Princess Hanxiang, at least...you have to be a concubine." The queen looked down at Hanxiang below, and said gently laughed.

Hanxiang was overjoyed and said: "I am very grateful to be able to get the favor and protection of my empress. Hanxiang will definitely do my best in the future, and only my empress will follow my lead."

Empress Nala smiled with satisfaction, and said: "My princess is so loyal, and I am very pleased. Now that it is getting late, you should go back to the side hall to rest."

Hanxiang bowed and said goodbye.

Looking at the back of Hanxiang going away, the queen fell into deep thought, and suddenly said to Nanny Rong: "In your opinion, how credible is what this Princess Hanxiang said?"

Mother Rong thought for a while and said, "I think it's [-]% credible according to slaves. After all, she is a Fanbang woman, although she is a little pretty. But she is thousands of miles away from home and has no one to rely on. Not surprisingly."

"Oh, are there still two points wrong?" The queen asked with a gloomy expression.

"Yes, it's also possible... She wants to take advantage of your influence, Madam. She was acting to deceive Madam just now, and she wants to rely on Madam to gain her own status." Nurse Rong thought about it, and this is also a possibility .

"But seeing how sincere she was just now, could it be that she is really deceiving me?" The queen thought she was very accurate in judging people.

"Young lady, it's better to be careful, don't forget the concubine Ling back then."

"Crack!" With a crisp sound, the jasper nail cover on her hand was violently snapped off by Queen Nala, and thrown heavily to the ground.There was a trace of disdain and anger in the queen's voice: "This palace is not a filial piety. It raises tigers for trouble, and it has trained Wei Shi, a coquettish son with a heart higher than the sky! A mere lowly slave, but a concubine, how can he be a concubine?" Dare... hum!"

Didn't the Wei family back then act like a lowly person in front of Empress Xiaoxian, which made Xiaoxian lose her vigilance, and as a result, Xiaoxian's death went up all the way. At one time, even if she was a queen, she had to avoid it. With its sharpness, the harem is almost dominated by the concubine Ling.

After Yongfan brothers and sisters entered the palace, seeing the way Yongfan looked at Lingfei, she knew that her turning point had arrived.

Although she had concealed the murderous intent and hatred in this child's eyes, she could still see it.

This son will definitely help her deal with Concubine Ling. For some reason, Empress Nala suddenly thought of this when she saw Yong Fan.

Although she doesn't know what enmity Ling Fei has with Yong Fan, she doesn't need to know, does she?

She calmly wooed Yong Fan, and she really lived up to her expectations. The brothers and sisters of Yong Fan gradually moved closer to her, and they were deeply favored. The Fu family was almost wiped out by Yong Fan.Even though the concubine Ling still has some status in the emperor's heart, she is far worse than before.

"Concubine Ling, I don't think there is anything wrong with a concubine competing for favor, but you shouldn't covet what you don't deserve. Contentment is the most important thing in a person. I will never allow a second Huixian to appear!" Queen murmured.

Hye Hyun!The biggest shame in her life!

"But empress..." Rong Momo said cautiously: "If this Princess Hanxiang really seeks refuge with empress, with her beauty, then the emperor..."

"Mama is talking about doting." The queen sneered, "What else can I plan at this age? As long as the emperor still recognizes Bengong as a queen, the rest... Hehe, I really want to see you." The empress is worried about that Hanxiang...I'm afraid that it shouldn't be Bengong who will be anxious at that time."

The queen's words are really sincere. If you want to talk about falling out of favor and jealousy, you might be a little bit brave when you were the queen, but now the queen is older after all, and the emperor's harem is also very abundant, and the queen doesn't have to be alone. Xiang came to care about these things, but it was useless.Back then when the empress was in the sixth palace, she had already received cold reception from Xiaoxian, Huixian, and Shujia, and later she had a concubine Ling, but no matter how indifferent, the emperor would still come to her on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar new year. The concubine Ling came from Ning Palace, no matter how much she competed for favor, she would not dare to take the emperor away from her on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar new year, otherwise, once the censor knew about it, even Qianlong himself would not be able to keep Concubine Ling.And in terms of palace affairs, she is still very satisfied with what she does. The emperor doesn't say how much he loves her, but he still has some respect.

Even if the emperor really dotes on Hanxiang in the future, those concubines are the ones who are anxious, not her queen, after all, her status is here!Even if Hanxiang was really the favorite of Concubine Dong E back then, Qianlong might not be able to be Emperor Shunzhi.No matter how much Shunzhi loved Concubine Dong E back then, he could only posthumously confer the title of Empress Xiaoxian after her death.To tell the truth, as long as the queen does not make a big mistake, she will stand still. If she wants to endanger the status of the queen, the queen mother will not agree, the Eight Banners will not agree, and the ancestors' family law will not agree!

So the one to worry about Hanxiang is not her, but someone else, those women who depend on the emperor's favor for food and high positions.

Supporting Hanxiang, Wei Na slowly returned to the side hall of Kunning Palace.

"Why does the princess want to be loyal to the queen so quickly, and still use such a drastic method? If the queen refuses, maybe she will be punished..." Seeing that there was no one around, Wei Na couldn't help asking in reply.

"That's right, it's really risky to do so? But if you don't give your allegiance to the empress at this time, wait and see and then follow the example just now, the empress might not protect me, even if she does, she won't treat me as her own."

"But why does the princess have to rely on the empress? According to the princess's appearance, judging from the emperor's appearance today, I know that he will definitely be the favorite in the harem..."

"Favorite the harem?" A sarcastic smile appeared on Hanxiang's innocent and gentle face: "Weina, although I grew up in Xinjiang, my father invited me to teach me the books and historical records of the Qing Dynasty since I was a child. Throughout the ages, The most indispensable thing for a king is the harem. The emperor will definitely love me in the future, but how long can this love last!!! Don't forget, the rule of the Qing Dynasty is that the draft is every three years, the emperor can spoil me for several years! According to the information we got, no matter how much I dote on you, can I compare to the imperial concubine Huixian back then..."

"But seeing the empress's appearance just now, the servant girl seems to be..." Wei Na was very worried.

"That's right. In fact, although the empress wanted to win me over just now, she didn't fully trust me. That's a matter of course. How can a woman in the harem trust others so easily? She's still a..." Han Xiang With a wry smile: "But if I can't get the queen's protection, as a woman from a foreign country, I don't have the Eight Banners who are full of concubines to rely on, the Mongolian tribes who don't have Meng concubine can rely on, and I don't even have family, father and brother to help like Han concubine... ...Hezhuobu is thousands of miles away, I am a concubine without any foundation, why should I gain a foothold in this Forbidden City? What I carry on my body is the whole Hezhuobu, even Huijiang." In the candlelight, Han Xiangqing's alluring face is full of indescribable sadness. In her life, she is destined to live for the Hezhuo tribe and the people in the north and south of the Tianshan Mountains.

Wei Na watched Hanxiang gradually turn into a firm expression, and wanted to comfort her, but she couldn't say it anyway, it was worth crying.

On May 24th of the [-]th year of Qianlong, the He Zhuo family entered the palace. The emperor was overjoyed and wanted to be promoted to the noble position, and then he spoke to the emperor. He was given the title and became the master of Jingren Palace.
