Chapter 67 Opportunity

"Your Majesty, someone has brought them here." Ju Qing led an unfamiliar little eunuch to the door, then quietly closed the door and retreated, only An Lingrong and the little eunuch were left.

"My servant greets Concubine Yao, and Concubine Yao is blessed and safe." The little eunuch who was born in front of him knelt down.

"Tell me about what you've seen these days."

"Yes." The little eunuch lowered his head and recalled, "The slave was sent to clean the outside of Yongbao Hall, and observed that Mrs. Wan was not in Yongbao Hall for most of the time every day. The nobleman's maidservant, Cai'er, is good friends. I often hear Cai'er say that nobleman Wan complains that the imperial garden is boring, but nobleman Wan loves to go to the imperial garden more and more in the past six months. I happen to have a fellow villager who works in the imperial garden, and occasionally see nobleman Wan , and they both talked very happily with the third elder brother, but there are court ladies and eunuchs beside them, so there is nothing wrong with it."

"What is the look on the nobleman's face when talking with the third elder brother, but there are some differences."

"Your Majesty Shengming, I have asked my fellow countrymen in detail, and my fellow countrymen said that when nobleman Wan was joking with the third elder brother, the nobleman was as usual, but the third elder brother always seemed to want to procrastinate a little longer, and always smiled on."

An Lingrong sneered, "Three elder brothers are frequently reprimanded by the emperor for studying, not to mention frowning, but smiles are rare. I don't want the third elder brother to be so greedy for the spring scenery of the imperial garden, and the smiles fall on the flowers in the imperial garden." up."

"More than that, I was cleaning outside the Yongbao Hall today, and saw Xiao Lezi, the eunuch next to Brother San, deliver a letter to Yongbao Hall, and after a while, nobleman Wan rushed out with the letter. Then...then The nobleman Wan was named a nobleman, and the third elder brother was also banned."

After hearing the ins and outs, An Lingrong smiled and pulled off the cloth covering the wooden plate on the table, and there were four silver ingots under it, "It's well done. This is 100 taels, enough for you to find a good job in the palace. But You have to remember, you have never been to Yanxi Palace today, and this silver is not given to you by this palace."

"Yes."

"Snapped!"

"I chose Fujin for him. It's fine if he doesn't like Qing Ying. The Wulanara clan has plenty of daughters. But it's not good for him to like any woman. He has to look at Concubine Xi's own sister. I'm really blind, I didn't realize it earlier, let Zhen Yuluo take advantage of such a loophole, and now the third elder brother doesn't even choose Fujin."

"Your Majesty, be careful that your hand hurts." Jian Qiu stepped forward and rubbed the Queen's red hand, "Your Majesty is angry again, but he has never restrained the third elder brother's feet, you have to think of a way."

"What can I do in this palace? The emperor has spent a year thinking about it, sending paintings or rare things to his sister every now and then, trying to curry favor with Zhen Yuluo, but now he finally got this new love, and even his own son can be grounded. The emperor is concerned. Face, didn't you hear the emperor say that the third elder brother was grounded to concentrate on his studies? Even if I know at this time, I can only pretend to be confused." The queen looked at the front fiercely, "Jingyang Palace is a good place, there are no concubines to live in. Saying, clean, is the word 'wan', and it is the status of a nobleman before going to bed, and by the way, I put the third elder brother together, Zhen Yuluo and Zhen Huan are really a pair of sisters, what a skill!"

"Your Majesty, Concubine Xi in the first and second palaces used to occupy most of the favors. Now that nobleman Wan enters the palace, I'm afraid that the second daughter of the Zhen family will occupy all the favors of the sixth palace."

Hearing what Jian Qiu said, the queen was relieved and leaned back on the soft pillow, "Oh, it doesn't matter if you take advantage of the favor for a while, if the six palaces don't complain for a long time, the courtiers and the queen mother will definitely not be able to sit still. "

Jian Qiu said, "Your Majesty, if you are not happy, you can wait for that person from Yanxi Palace to take action."

"Waiting for Yanxi Palace to make a move? How many times have you seen Concubine Yao make a move in these years, not to mention sitting and waiting for death is never suitable for this palace, it is the right way to plan ahead. I don't care about the distinction between grace and favor, the important thing is the third elder brother Is it possible to inherit the great rule?" The queen thought for a while and said, "The emperor prefers the eighth elder brother the most, and it will never be wrong to ask the courtiers to mention the eighth elder brother more."

"Concubine Yao's Sixth Brother..."

"The sixth elder brother is not the most outstanding in reading, and he is not the most favored by the emperor, not to mention Concubine Yao's family background... No matter how difficult it is for him to be in the wheel." The queen paused, "By the way, the fourth elder brother should also find him this year." It's Fujin."

Jian Qiu replied, "Yes. It's just that the fourth elder brother has never been valued by the emperor, and no one has mentioned the fourth elder brother's marriage yet."

"I am the lord of the six palaces, and also the empress mother of all the princes. The fourth elder brother's marriage has no one to take care of. Naturally, it is most reasonable for me to bring it up. Since the third elder brother is useless, the fourth elder brother can read books without an empress." , if he can keep his law and order and marry a woman from the Ulanara family, and use it for my palace, it will not be in vain for this palace to let him live."

"The emperor enshrined you as a noble person. You can't cry for such a big happy event."

Zhen Yuluo looked expressionless at the copper mirror, letting Liangxing cry, "Why is sister here?"

Zhen Huan sat next to Zhen Yurao and took her hand, "You named Wan nobleman today, but shied away from the emperor's not going to bed. I understand your thoughts, so I naturally want to come and see you."

Zhen Yuluo sarcastically said, "Sister, is she afraid that if something happens to her, she will hurt the family, so she came to see her?"

Zhen Huan held Zhen Yurao's hand tighter, "You and I are real sisters."

"Yes, we are sisters, but you still pushed me into a cage that I never want to enter."

Zhen Huan looked at Zhen Yuluo's black and glossy hair, even though she was wearing it without any decoration, she could see her youth and the beauty of agility that was lacking in the palace, "If it wasn't for my sister, how could she pull her kinsman along?" Younger sister, Yuluo, older sister is already 26, without grace, our Zhen clan will perish sooner or later."

"You just want someone who is worthy of your trust, someone who will help you to pamper you." Zhen Yuluo withdrew her hand from Zhen Huan's hand and wiped away her tears, "It's ridiculous, our Zhen clan, three daughters, all will be buried In this filthy palace."

"Listen to my sister," Zhen Huan took Zhen Yurao's hand again, "Concubine Rong told me before she died that she knew about Huanbi's life experience, and Huanbi must have been coerced by this to send her to death. I told another person that this person is either the Queen or the Concubine Yao. Concubine Rong poisoned me, and she will definitely choose the Queen who tried everything possible to get rid of me. If one day the Queen thoroughly investigates Huanbi's life experience, it will not be you who died Me. Now I just want to win the emperor's favor, and I have no time to take care of other things. If you are here, with your appearance and thoughts, you can completely get rid of the third elder brother and her before the queen makes a move. The home can also be kept."

"Sister," Zhen Yuluo looked at Zhen Huan with beautiful eyes, "I didn't realize until now that you are no longer my sister Zhen Huan, but the concubine Xi in the palace."

Zhen Huan held Zhen Yuluo's hand tightly, not giving her a chance to break free, "Although the queen and the third elder brother are currently weak, as long as the queen is still the queen and the third elder brother is the eldest son, the third elder brother may still inherit the throne. We must continue to weaken them so that they have no chance of turning over. Also, we have too few princes. It is impossible for the fifth and seventh princes to inherit the throne. Concubine Yao belongs to one party, if the fourth elder brother who is about the same age as the third elder brother can belong to us, then it would be great."

"It's been two months, and the emperor doesn't go to any other palaces except Jingyang Palace and Yongshou Palace." An Lingrong spread the chess record on the table and ate Jinyuxue balls freshly made in the small kitchen.

"Looking at the emperor's momentum, I'm afraid he will be pampered for a long time. The Jingyang Palace is not only a concubine, but also a concubine is just around the corner." Concubine Jin hugged the ninth elder brother Hongchang and fed him half a bowl of steamed eggs .

Mu Yang saw his younger brother Hongchang nestled softly in Concubine Jin's arms and almost finished eating. He slowly climbed down from the side of An Lingrong and sat down on the couch. He didn't know which cabinet his mother took out an exquisite rattle. Then he walked slowly to Hong Chang, shook the rattle, Hong Chang was attracted to him at once, and looked eagerly at the rattle in Mu Yang's hand.

"Muyang likes to play with Hongchang." An Lingrong reassured the wet nurse to watch that she didn't have to get too close.

Concubine Jin smiled and said, "Yes, it just so happens that Hong Chang has finished eating, now is the time to move around, let the wet nurse take them down to play."

"Take Sixth Princess and Ninth Brother to the side hall to make a fuss."

"Yes." Hongchang was picked up by the wet nurse, and Mu Yang staggered out following behind the nurse who was holding Hongchang.

"Although the emperor has more heirs in recent years, there are still few elder princesses of the same age. Yan Xu and Wen Yi play very well. It's a pity that Concubine Xi's consonance doesn't get along well with Mu Yang. Mu Yang is always alone. Fortunately, now Younger sister brought Brother Jiu to sit down, otherwise Mu Yang would really be suffocated to death."

"My sister was joking. Mu Yang is second only to the seventh princess and is loved by the emperor, and she has an older sister who knows how to live a life. How could she be bored?" Concubine Jin gave Ju Qing the bowl that Hong Chang had finished eating, and Ju Qing and Gui Zhi, who was close to Concubine Jin, also retreated.

"Sister, do you know that the harem is full of criticism because of the favor of nobleman Wan and Concubine Xi?"

"Women in the harem don't have anything to do, they just fight and get jealous." An Lingrong shook the table, "In addition to the emperor's rain and dew to appease the harem, there is also the promotion and promotion of status."

"In addition to people's hearts, after the third elder brother's election of Fujin was delayed, the queen gave the fourth elder brother Wulanara Qingying as the side Fujin. If the fourth elder brother hadn't shied away and had to concentrate on studying now, I'm afraid Ulanara Qingying I'm going to become the fourth elder brother's Fujin." Concubine Jin frowned, "But the concubine heard that the fourth elder brother was close to Concubine Xi in the Old Summer Palace when he was young, and he will also go to Yongshou Palace to pay his respects in the past few days. The fourth elder brother has no mother, let alone him Reading is the best among the princes, if there is a high-ranking mother..."

"Not urgent."

"Sister?" Concubine Jin looked at An Lingrong in confusion.

"The fourth elder brother is smart. When they were fighting for the crown prince, the empress and concubine Xi were interested in him at the same time, but the empress had the third elder brother, and concubine Xi had the eighth elder brother. No matter which side he joined, he would not favor him first, so He won't obey any side so quickly. We can already get the definite result of Concubine Xi's matter based on the clues, we need to wait for an opportunity now."

"opportunity?"

"Yes, an opportunity that can hurt both of them."

"I haven't seen the emperor for half a month, the emperor seems to have lost some weight, but take good care of the dragon's body, and don't be too tired."

Yongzheng looked at Concubine Yao making tea for him, "Today I saw Yanxu and Wen Yi having a great time in the Imperial Garden. I haven't seen my children playing so closely together for a long time."

"Yanxu and Wen Yi have always been good friends." An Lingrong handed the brewed tea to the emperor, "Your Majesty, drink tea."

"I went to see Mu Yang yesterday. Among my princesses, only Mu Yang is the most innocent and brilliant." Yongzheng took a sip of tea, "No matter when, the tea you make is always close to my heart."

An Lingrong sat beside the emperor, "Why is the emperor praising the two concubines and concubines so much today? Since he praised Yanxu and Mu Yang, Hong Xu should also praise them."

"Xu'er doesn't need me to boast, he is good, I and the master in the study are all aware of it." Yongzheng put down the tea that An Lingrong had just made, "Today I came to find Ronger, because I want to ask Ronger something. .”

"As long as it doesn't involve government affairs, the courtiers and concubines will listen to it."

Yongzheng took An Lingrong's hand, "The fourth elder brother is getting older, and now he is about to get married, so he got a side concubine of the Ulanara family. I thought, it's better to let the fourth elder brother recognize a mother-in-law, so that I can have a good time when we get married." decent."

An Lingrong thought for a while, "If we talk about heirs, the position is the most suitable one. The concubine thinks it should be sister Hui. It's just that sister Hui is not much different from the fourth elder brother in age. I'm afraid it's..."

"I think so too."

"Actually, the emperor didn't come to see the concubine today, and the concubine also came to the emperor. What the concubine wanted to say might be able to help the emperor. The emperor might as well listen to what the concubine said and think about the matter of Si elder brother admitting his mother."

"Oh?" Yongzheng looked at An Lingrong, "That Ronger has to tell me quickly."

"The emperor first promised his concubines to listen to what they said and not to be angry with them."

"You speak first."

An Lingrong turned his head, "The emperor is cheating, what the concubine said is just a trivial matter for the women in the palace, if the emperor gets angry, it will be the concubine's sin."

"Okay." Yongzheng patted An Lingrong's hand, "I promise you."

"The emperor has mostly stayed at the place of Concubine Xi and Sister Wangui these months. The sisters in the palace are only focused on the emperor, and they also remember that the emperor can go to them. Now that the emperor likes the two sisters so much, it is inevitable for other sisters in the palace. Some gossip."

"Rong'er is persuading me to have both rain and dew?" Yongzheng looked at An Lingrong.

An Lingrong smiled and shook his head, "It's common for the emperor to like concubines, and the concubines only want the emperor to be happy. It's just that the emperor has to show that he has not forgotten the other sisters. First, it can reassure the other sisters, and second, it can also make the emperor happy." Concubine Xi and nobleman Wan should be less bothered by other people's bitter words and jealous words."

"I understand," Yongzheng embraced An Lingrong, "It's great that Rong'er has such a heart, but you just tell me which concubines I should promote."

"Sisters with more seniority will naturally be promoted, like Sister Duanfei and Xingui, and the rest of the sisters are naturally based on the emperor's favor." An Lingrong leaned lightly on Yongzheng's shoulder.

"Hmm. There may not have been any great concubine in the harem for a long time, so Concubine Jin Duan was made Concubine Xin, Noble Xin was concubine Xin, and Noble Ning was Concubine Ning... By the way, Concubine Hui served very well in front of the Empress Dowager, and the Empress Dowager's body is now Much better, and thanks to her pure filial piety, let's be promoted to Concubine Hui together."

"The concubine still wants to ask for a position for one person."

"It's a good thing to ask for a position, so don't hesitate."

An Lingrong walked up to Yongzheng and knelt down, "The concubine wants to promise the year of Yikun Palace and ask for a promotion."

"Why."

An Lingrong kowtowed, "The concubine once visited New Year's promise. Since Nian's promise fell down, although she lived in Yikun Palace, she couldn't bear to see Nian's haggard appearance because she couldn't see the emperor for many years. So the concubine She has helped Nian to live in the palace for many years, if she can get the emperor's approval to advance to the position promised by Jinnian, she must be more relieved to know what the emperor thinks of her."

"I haven't seen me for many years... It's been five years, and I have been afraid to see her, fearing that if I can't bear it for a while, I will be sad again." Yongzheng put one hand on his knee, "Is she okay recently?"

"Nian promises that he doesn't want to see anyone and rarely goes out of Yikun Palace, but the concubine knows that recently Yikun Palace summoned the imperial physician."

"Since that's the case, let's promote her to the position of a nobleman. Even if the Nian clan is at fault, it is not her fault." Yongzheng felt that something was wrong again, "By the way, give her the position of concubine so that she can feel at ease. Get sick." Seeing that Concubine Yao was still kneeling, he stretched out his hand to hold her, "Get up quickly, this is not a big deal."

An Lingrong didn't take Yongzheng's hand immediately, but took another kowtow before taking Yongzheng's generous hand, and smiled sweetly at Yongzheng, "The emperor has fulfilled the infatuation of the nobleman."

"Rong'er is very thoughtful. It's not in vain that I let you also have the right to assist the Sixth Palace. It's just that you have asked so much for others, you should also think about yourself."

An Lingrong took Yongzheng's hand, "The concubine and the emperor already have Yanxu and Mu Yang, and now they are raising Hongxu. The three children are all well-behaved. The concubine is already satisfied. The more I look forward to, the more I look forward to the emperor. It’s enough to keep a small piece of land in my heart at any time.” As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and compared it to the size of a little fingernail.

"I've always had you in my heart." Yongzheng said with a smile, "Speaking of which, the fourth elder brother's mother is still hard to decide on. The fourth elder brother is getting older, so you have to ask him."

Zeng Lixin came in quietly, "Responding to the words of the emperor and Concubine Yao, the palace servants of Yongshou Palace came to report that Concubine Xi has been pregnant for more than a month."

"Okay!" Yongzheng stood up happily while holding An Lingrong's hand.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty." An Lingrong smiled and blessed Fushen, lo and behold, she waited for the opportunity and here it is.
