"It's her." Li Xian'er had a fight with Xie Cheng for most of the night on their wedding night yesterday, and she didn't rest well, and yawned lazily when she was talking.

Xie Cheng's complexion changed again and again: "I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it..."

Li Xian'er stretched out her hand to pinch Xie Cheng's face, and seemed to smile: "Hey, His Royal Highness Qin Wang, what are you forgetting?"

Xie Cheng took her hand and held it in his hand, sighed: "I am a wise king, but I forgot that your heart is unpredictable."

Li Xianer blinked: "Huh?"

Xie Cheng snorted a few times, and then said slowly: "Look at you, you are still leisurely, don't you know that your deadly enemy is about to become our chief mistress."

Li Xian'er didn't react at first, she straightened up suddenly: "Who are you talking about? Ning Anrong...will be the successor?"

Xie Cheng covered her mouth to keep her voice from coming out of the car.

Seeing that Li Xian'er was still full of disbelief, Xie Cheng said helplessly, "Keep your voice down...or maybe I'm wrong in my guess."

Li Xian'er pulled his hand away, and said in a low voice: "Isn't the Ning family in ruins?"

Xie Cheng said: "Everyone thought that the Ning family was in decline, and that the daughters of the Ning family would have no chance... But who would have thought that what the father might want is a vase successor without any background, so he would save himself from being restrained by the foreign family again." bitter."

Although Li Xian'er accepted Xie Cheng's statement, when she thought that Ning Anrong became the successor, she was overwhelmed by her seniority alone, her heart was full of anger, and she was still unwilling to say: "Now even my father can't listen to it." Speaking of this news, where did His Highness hear the news?"

Xie Cheng glanced at her: "This king has his own sources of news."

Although Concubine Li didn't clearly express the identity of the new empress, Xie Cheng only calculated in his heart, and then he deduced a general idea, plus what he asked from his new concubine... The identity of the new empress is clear, I'm afraid it is pretty close.

Xie Cheng's mother, Concubine Li, has always been a cautious character, saying that the new queen will always use some means to establish her prestige when she ascends the throne, but although Xie Cheng is not the most favored son of the middle palace like the prince, he is He is also the one who is more favored by the emperor and the empress dowager. Besides, he just made a mistake a while ago and was punished by the emperor. At this moment, no matter who he is, he has to avoid it, for fear of getting involved in something wrong and being labeled as a clique. Afterwards, with a bit of brain, he realized that he is not active now, he can neither talk nor please... But if there is any reason to push the successor, he would rather fight the empress dowager and the emperor to dislike him, and he must be punished?

So Xie Cheng thought of his unlucky princess.Li Xian'er is well-known in the capital, but he is not easy to get along with. The people in Chuxiu Pavilion are about the same age as Li Xian'er, and it cannot be ruled out that his concubine had some quarrels with those people...

Thus, Ning Anrong, the daughter of the Ning family, stood out.

They are all girls in the sixteenth and seventeenth years, no matter how much scheming the city has, they will not be as calm as those old people in the palace. It is not difficult for Xie Cheng to imagine that if he marries Li Xian'er in the next year, as the new empress How would Ning Anrong use her identity to suppress Li Xian'er...

Shaking his head and thinking about the scene, he was afraid that if his new concubine had a violent temper, the trouble would end badly, and he would not be the one who was unlucky then?

Feeling so emotional, Xie Cheng couldn't help but be more grateful for his mother and concubine's careful consideration.

This Xie Cheng just got married in the bridal chamber, although he guessed the identity of the new empress after some struggles, which made his Princess Qin's heart ache, and she couldn't eat for several days, but the life in the mansion was barely calm.On the other side of the palace, the closer the New Year's Eve was, the more anxious the people in the Chuxiu Pavilion became.

At the beginning of the draft, there were quite a few beautiful women who were left with a brand in the Xiuxiu Pavilion. After a few months, half of the beautiful women were favored by Emperor Jin Yuan and given positions. At this time, there are only a few of them who are still in the Xiuxiu Pavilion , but they are all the children of high-ranking officials, and their identities are all noble.

Xu Shi knew early on that the new queen would be born from it, so they were careful and meticulous in terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation.

Since the fall of the Ning family, the noble sons and daughters who had always surrounded Ning Anrong before have gradually changed their direction. Ning Anrong has long known the ability of this group of people to adapt to the wind, but he did not expect that Ning Guogong was defeated by Emperor Jin Yuan. After giving up completely, the faces of those people will change so quickly.

Those who boasted that she would take the title of successor all gathered around Lu Zhiliang, because he was the eldest son of Shangshu Hubu, with a noble status, and he was now a popular candidate for the successor, but as for her, she was just a poor The daughter of the defeated Ning family is nothing more than that, if the emperor takes pity on her, she might be able to gain a decent position in the harem with her young face and empress Yuan's face, but if the emperor is ruthless...

Even Ning Anrong herself thought that she would soon be overturned by Emperor Jin Yuan, serve her bed for a day, and then become an ordinary concubine among the concubines, but who knows that as the days go by, the princess in Chuxiu Pavilion Xiu Nu went less and less, but she still stayed here firmly, together with those noble sons and noble daughters who were very likely to become successors.

"What's your majesty's idea... we should stop guessing."

Lu Zhiliang's indifferent voice came from the courtyard, Ning Anrong asked the maid to put up the window lattice, and turned her gaze out of the window.

A few days ago, it had just fallen heavily, and the courtyard was now covered with deep snow. Some slaves wanted to sweep the snow, but they were rejected by the fun-loving nobles. They closed the courtyard door and started a snowball fight inside.

Lu Zhiliang was standing in the corridor beside him, talking with a few quiet and noble sons and daughters, and looking at the courtyard.

Someone saw the window lattices in Ning Anrong's room, and couldn't help but glance over, smiled and said to the people around him: "We all know the meaning of Brother Lu's words, but we are still a little curious... Your Majesty, will he Sister Ning forgot?"

"That's right, Sister Ning is so pitiful. She is in the palace, and her family has fallen like that."

A lady interjected: "Actually, it's not difficult to understand. If I'm angry with someone, I don't want that person and his relatives and friends to appear in front of me. I'm afraid His Majesty didn't forget Sister Ning, on the contrary, I don't want to let that person appear in front of me." I don't want to see her."

"Be careful!" Lu Zhiliang frowned and stopped.

There are quite a few people around him who turned the wind and leaned over after the Ning family's accident. Although he didn't like their sloppy behavior, he couldn't push them all away, which led to the current situation. , when there are too many people, the mouth will be broken a lot, it seems that if you don't use the Ning family's daughter as a raft, you can't talk for a day.

"Girl, don't listen any more." The maid serving Ning Anrong was furious and closed the window lattice.

Ning An Rong held the tea and said, "It's not the first day that you and your left say that about me."

"Girl!" The maid stomped her feet, not worth it for Ning An.

Ning Anrong said: "People are used to favoring the high and depressing the low. In the past, I relied on my family background to be superior, and they favored me. Now that I have nothing, they will naturally go to favor others... Most of the people in the palace are If I behave like this, if I even care about this matter, how will I live in the future."

The maid pursed her lips, speechless for a while.

As the master and servant talked like this, the sky gradually darkened, and the noble sons and noble daughters in the Chuxiu Pavilion probably didn't know that those who were told a joke by them the day before would fly away tomorrow. Soaring to the sky, and their future days, perhaps, will never be as easy as today.

The next day.

Zhao Lin, the chief eunuch, suddenly went to Chuxiu Palace to read the imperial decree when no one expected it.

The snow in the courtyard was still not cleared, the old eunuch Zhao Lin frowned, but still asked the little eunuch beside him to invite all the nobles and masters out.

"Masters, listen to the order?"

Zhao Lin said with a smile, his eyes inadvertently fell on Ning Anrong who was in the corner, and swept away.

Everyone stood on the snow and looked at each other. It was Lu Zhiliang who was the first to lift up his robe and kneel on the snow. After him, a few delicate ladies had no choice but to kneel down in fear even though they were reluctant.

Seeing this, Zhao Lin squeezed his throat sharply, and said Qingsheng: "Follow the heavens, the emperor ordered:..."

One after another, the noble daughters whose names were read were conferred concubines. As the time went on, the conferred lands became more solemn, and they were gifts from the palace. Xianfei, one of the concubines!

Before receiving congratulations from the palace people, Lu Zhiliang's tightly clenched fists were suddenly powerless to let go.

He squeezed out a smile, got up and took the imperial decree, and when he turned around, he looked at Ning Anrong who had not been called in the corner but had a calm expression, his mouth was full of bitter taste.

Looking at Manchuxiu Pavilion, Ning Anrong is the only one who has not been sealed yet.

It doesn't matter how others ridicule or sympathize, the position of the new empress has finally fallen into the hands of Ning Anrong.

"Masters and ladies, please move to the new residence immediately, and please take care of me in the palace in the future." The old eunuch Zhao Lin said with a smile.

Several families were happy and some were sad, but at the moment everyone cautiously glanced in Ning Anrong's direction.

"Oh...Master Ning still needs to stay here for two more days." Zhao Lin's complexion did not change, he still smiled and said, "The rest of the masters and ladies, please?"

Lu Zhiliang lowered his eyes, followed the servant who led the way, he walked past Ning Anrong, and said with complicated eyes: "This time... I lost."

Ning Anrong raised his eyes lightly, but there was no joy in his eyes, only a little indifference: "Really."

The fact that Chuxiu Pavilion was enshrined collectively caused no disturbances in the entire harem, but people around the new empress never thought of it.

Emperor Jin Yuan first asked Zhao Lin to read out the imperial decree in the early dynasty. When the officials of the Manchu Dynasty were astonished, Qin Tianjian stood up again and said that two days later will be an auspicious day that can only be met in decades. Emperor Jin Yuan Seeing this, Da Yue specially approved the post-sealing ceremony two days later, and asked the Ministry of Rites to hurry up and prepare.

Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites couldn't help but grimaced, and cried that the time was too tight, and he was afraid that it would be too late.

Emperor Jinyuan said compassionately: "After all, the Ning family is only a successor. There is no need to hold a grand ceremony for the conferment of the queen, so let's keep everything simple."

The Minister of the Ministry of Rites kowtowed and said, "I obey the order."

Only now did the courtiers understand that Emperor Jin and Yuan didn't really value successors very much. Looking back, the Ning family was in decline, and the successors lost their mother's support. Emperor Jin Yuan, who was bound by the family, I am afraid that the emperor's prestige will be even worse!

Since then, the courtiers who had different thoughts were shaken again because of the gradual growth of several princes.

Emperor Jin and Yuan were in their prime of life, free from disease and disaster. Although the prince's personality was too gentle, he had a solid reserve... Alas, it is difficult to get the merits of the dragon right now. ,Lets see.
