Jiang Fanlin was promoted by Prime Minister Yun Xuanzhi, and has a close relationship with the Minister of Personnel Li Wanqing. He has many connections with the three governments, and he is also an important figure that the Imperial Concubine needs to win over and stabilize her power.

Also included in the Imperial Concubine's sight this time is the swaying Dali Temple Minister Kou Boran.

His eldest granddaughter Kou Jing is the most talented woman in Kyoto, with good looks and talent.

There is also a rising star in the past six months, Lu Lin, the daughter of Lu Wangyun, the Minister of Rites.

The Ministry of Revenue has always been under the influence of the former crown prince. Assistant Minister of Revenue Bai Qi was expected to succeed as Minister of Revenue, but the crown prince was deposed, and his status plummeted. Minister of Revenue was replaced by Governor Jiang Fanlin who was transferred from Huai'an County.

He moved his family to Kyoto half a year later. This was the first time for his daughter Jiang Yiyuan to enter the palace. The gentleness and generosity she showed just now made Concubine Song like her very much.

These three people are the candidates that Concubine Song intends to have as Princess Ning.

She is still considering how to choose between the Minister of Revenue and the Minister of Dali Temple as her main wife.

If everything can be settled smoothly, her son's power in the court will be more stable.

But there was an accident involving the little medical fairy Yun Qianyou.

She hadn't thought much about it before, but when she saw it today, she was indeed amazed. Then thinking about her son's attitude, she became a little hesitant.

When Concubine Song came out of the hall with a group of ladies, she saw her son standing next to Qian You and her brows couldn't help but frown.

Young masters from various mansions came to the back garden one after another, and the scene became even more lively.

Concubine Song sent the senior palace maid to call Prince Ning over.

"I finally found you!"

A wanton and ostentatious figure ran over from a distance. It was Ye Lanxin, the granddaughter of Old Marshal Ye. She exuded a heroic spirit.

"Let me introduce you."

Qian You looked at a few people he was not very familiar with.

"Ye Lanxin from Ye Taiwei's Mansion, Sheng Yanran from Beibohou Mansion, and this is her brother Sheng Xiaoge."

"Are you the Prince Sheng? The Prince Sheng who is rumored to love business more than the court?"

Ye Lanxin had a pair of almond-shaped eyes with upturned corners. She stared straight at the pair of peach blossom eyes opposite her, which seemed to be smiling but not smiling, and her eyes were filled with joy.

what's the situation?

Qian You and Sheng Yanran looked at each other.

This woman has a very straightforward personality. They all seem a little overwhelmed by her direct gaze.

Looking at everyone's surprised expressions, Ye Lanxin spoke quickly and talked to herself.

"When my mother advised my father not to be too demanding on me for liking military uniforms and not liking needlework, she used him as an example, saying that he was the only legitimate son in the Marquis's mansion, and the Marquis did not force him to pursue a career in politics or enter the court, but instead let him do business as he pleased. We are a family of generals, and it's okay for a girl to like martial arts."

She smiled happily at the few people.

"I heard it secretly. Since then, my father has stopped caring about my martial arts training, so I am very grateful to you."

Sheng Xiaoge's face was filled with black lines.

Are you praising me or are you praising me?

With Ye Lanxin's joining, the atmosphere among the group immediately became more lively.

In less than a cup of tea, Sheng Yanran and Ye Lanxin became good sisters who could talk about anything. Qian You felt warm in his heart as he watched them.

Yes, they both grew up in a stable honeypot, with happy families, loving parents, and they are the only legitimate daughters in the family. There is no jealousy between illegitimate sisters. Both of them have simple personalities and honest childish hearts, so it is natural for them to be attracted to each other.

Looking at Prince Sheng, who was often pulled in by his sister to talk, he looked helpless but obviously not resisting.

As you can imagine, his sister has already helped him find a sister-in-law.

Judging from their hard work, it won’t be long before good news comes from Beibohou Mansion.

The two families are well matched, so there shouldn't be any obstacles.

In this way, the generals of Old Marshal Ye’s family should be firmly tied to King Sheng’s boat.

Today's plum blossom viewing banquet hosted by the Imperial Concubine was an unexpected benefit to Prince Sheng.

There was a time to enjoy the plum blossoms, when the afterglow of the setting sun fell among the trees, and everyone went to the main hall amid the singing of several eunuchs.

Under the guidance of the palace servants, Qian You found his seat.

Unexpectedly, the seats were very close to the front, with families of the Marquis' Mansion, the Grand Marshal's Mansion and several Shangshu Mansions sitting in front, behind and opposite.

Sheng Yanran happily changed seats, moving herself and Ye Lanxin to sit next to Qian You, and sat down with satisfaction.

The young ladies who came in one after another saw the unknown Qian You sitting in the front. Some of them showed disdain and jealousy, but because of the atmosphere in the hall, they could only hold their breath silently.

Song Mingyue, Li Hui and Li Wen were sitting in the middle area, grumbling in dissatisfaction.

Why is Yun Qianyou sitting in the front?

She was just a commoner, with the title of Little Medical Miracle. If she still remembered the Prime Minister Yun's Mansion, she would be just a concubine's daughter. They were not convinced.

After everyone was seated, following the eunuch's singing, Emperor Cang Hantian of Dongcang, His Royal Highness Prince Ning Cang Min, His Royal Highness Prince Shen Cang Xun, and Imperial Concubine Song Wan appeared one after another and took their seats in the high main seats.

The first thing Prince Ning did was to look at the place where Qian You was sitting. When he saw the legitimate daughter of Beibohou Mansion and the legitimate granddaughter of Ye Taiwei Mansion next to them, he subconsciously frowned.

But after a moment, he felt relieved.

Both of these families needed treatment from the Little Medical Fairy, so it was normal for girls of similar age to get to know each other and get to know each other.

Three days ago, he admitted in front of his father that there was a snowstorm in Lin County and that the court needed to send someone to provide comfort and assistance.

He volunteered, and he knew that his father would not bear to see a weak boy like him working so hard, so without a doubt, this important task fell on his capable second brother Cangyu.

He secretly urged the accompanying officials to set off immediately, with the aim of preventing him from attending the plum blossom viewing banquet today.

When he comes back, everything will be settled, and he will never let Xiao Yixiang appear by his side again.

He knew that they were very close.

Chang Ting reported several times that he saw Cangyu going in and out of Qian Mansion very late at night, and he was so jealous that he was almost going crazy.

Concubine Song, who was sitting high in the hall, suggested with a smile that everyone raise their glasses of wine to congratulate His Majesty on his great fortune and the peace and prosperity of the country.

The banquet officially began, and the palace maids passed the dishes one after another.

Qian You looked at Emperor Dong Cang who was sitting on the high seat.

At the age of sixty, his old body is already showing signs of decline, and it seems that he has been invaded by illness.

He sat half hunched over on the large dragon throne, but he could not conceal the imperial aura that had been ingrained in his bones and blood as he had been in power for so long.

His eyes were cloudy, like a bottomless pool of ink, with no sign of joy or anger, and he slowly scanned the people in his palace.

Several of his princes look somewhat like him, so he must have been an extraordinarily handsome man when he was young.

The years have carved deep grooves on his face, making it look harsh and cold.

Qian You made a judgment in his heart that this was a man of his word.

He is insidious and domineering, and will not tolerate anyone interfering in his affairs.

No wonder, the entire Dongbohou family was wiped out.

How can such a person who abuses power and is self-centered tolerate an uncontrollable force? He doesn't care whether you are a loyal minister or a good general.

She tried hard to suppress the sadness and resentment in her heart. Her blood gradually turned cold, but on the surface she maintained a calm expression.
