Langya's words shocked everyone.

Especially Hongli.

He originally wanted to choose Langya as his concubine, but he didn't expect that she didn't want to be his concubine, but wanted to be his stepmother!

Hongli and Concubine Xi had already discussed the candidates for this selection.

However, he had a different opinion from Concubine Xi.

Imperial Concubine Xi meant for him to choose Langya as his wife and Gao Xiyue as his concubine.

But what he was thinking was to choose his childhood sweetheart Qingying as his principal wife, Langya as his concubine, and Gao Xiyue would be discussed later when the talent show came.

Although she was a concubine, Hongli had already decided in his heart that Langya was his woman.

Now his woman doesn't want to marry him and wants to marry his royal father. Hongli can't accept this. He feels that he is being cuckolded by his royal father.

But he knew that this was not the time for him to speak, so he looked at his adopted mother.

Concubine Xi cursed Hongli eight hundred times in her heart, but she still had to make plans for this adopted son.

So she said, "Your Majesty, Princess Fucha is probably angry with the Fourth Prince because he didn't choose her as his principal wife. Princess Fucha, today is the Fourth Prince's selection of concubines, and you are also here to participate in the selection for the position of his wife, so don't make such a joke." When she said the latter part, she looked at Langya with a strong warning in her eyes.

Langya smiled softly and then said, "Your Highness, you are joking. I dare not joke about my lifelong event. Besides, since ancient times, the Qing Dynasty has always selected concubines for the emperor and all the royal family members, not just for the fourth prince.

This time I am not here for the Fourth Prince.

I have heard that the Fourth Prince and Princess Qingying were childhood sweethearts and were very affectionate. In order to avoid being chosen by the Third Prince, Princess Qingying ate beans in advance and defecated at the selection site. She acted without regard for the face of all the women of the Ulanara clan, which shows that she is deeply in love with the Fourth Prince.

The Fourth Prince knew that she had lost face in the Third Prince's selection, but he still insisted on choosing her as his principal wife. This is enough to show how deeply they love each other. I, your servant, do not want to separate this pair of lovers.

Besides, my cousin is the wife of Prince Lu. So I am still the elder of the Fourth Prince. How can I marry him?"

Concubine Xi wanted to say more, but Yinzhen raised his hand to stop her. He looked at Langya seriously and asked, "Do you really want to enter the palace?"

Langya nodded without hesitation, "It is a blessing for me to be able to enter the palace and serve the emperor."

Generally speaking, when the emperor reached his later years, he would not choose the daughters of important officials even if he was selecting concubines. Otherwise, if he allowed a noble lady from a prominent family to enter the palace and marry a dying man, it would not be a marriage, but an enmity.

So when Langya proposed to enter the palace, Yinzhen was surprised at first, and then asked her seriously again.

Seeing that she didn't seem to be angry, and thinking that she had already said it in front of everyone, if he refused, she would never be able to marry anyone else in the future, so it would be better to grant her wish and let her enter the palace.

"Su Peisheng, pass on the decree! Fu Chalanghua, the daughter of Li Rongbao, the governor of Chahar, is gentle, docile, graceful and pleasing to the eye. She is very much to my liking. I decree her to be my consort and bestow the title Shu. She will live in Chengqian Palace and enter the palace in five days."

Langya immediately changed her words, "I accept your order and thank you."

Yinzhen extended his hand to her, and Langya took his hand and stood up with his strength. "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Now, Concubine Xi had to face the reality that her good daughter-in-law had become her "sister".

Although Langya's appearance was not particularly outstanding, her family background was better than anyone else in the harem.

Concubine Xi even thought that if there weren't the Empress, Concubine Duan, Concubine Jing and herself in the palace, all the high positions would be occupied.

A concubine position might not be enough to stop her! After all, Yinzhen even let her live in Chengqian Palace!

At the same time, she was also thankful that Yinzhen's health had deteriorated over the years and he probably didn't have many years left to live. Even if Langya was lucky enough to get pregnant, she would not be able to compare to a grown-up prince.

Concubine Xi rolled her eyes at her adopted son and sighed heavily in her heart. If her Hongzhou had not been so young, she would never have supported this brainless adopted son!

Hongli was also a little dumbfounded.

How come the imperial edict has been issued?

What about him?

What about his concubine?

Where is the support from the Fucha clan that he wants?

Wait, although the Fucha Gege in his backyard is from the Gahari Fucha clan and cannot be compared with the Shaji Fucha clan of Fucha Langya, it seems that I heard that these two families are interested in uniting the clan?

Why not settle the Lian Zong matter today?

"Father Emperor, your son——"

"Your Majesty." Although Langya didn't know what he wanted to say, she would not allow anyone to ruin her plan, so she tried to comfort him, "Your Majesty, even if the Queen was wrong, Princess Qingying is not only the Queen's niece, she is also the niece of Queen Chunyuan. Please, for the sake of Queen Chunyuan, don't treat Princess Qingying badly."

When Concubine Xi heard this, she felt something was wrong.

Sure enough, Yinzhen, whose mind was full of Empress Chunyuan, immediately issued another decree, appointing Ulanara Qingying as the Fourth Prince's legitimate wife.

How could Empress Chunyuan's niece be a concubine?

Only the principal wife is worthy of her niece!

In this way, Hongli happily married the daughter of a fourth-rank colonel as his principal wife.

With such a legitimate wife who holds a fourth-rank official position, it is destined that the family backgrounds of his concubines and princesses will not be very good.

Therefore, Gao Xiyue, the daughter of a third-rank salt transport envoy in Lianghuai, was granted 100 taels of gold and allowed to leave the palace and marry on her own.

Langya was a little envious of her.

One hundred taels of gold!

The drama is really a big deal!

Langya took Su Lian and returned to the Fucha family in the palace carriage.

On the way, Su Lian tried to talk to Lang Ya, but Lang Ya looked serious and said, "This is not the place to talk. Let's talk when we get back."

Su Lian thought that they were surrounded by people from the palace, so she immediately shut her mouth and didn't say anything more.

Langya's father Li Rongbao died of illness in the first year of Yongzheng's reign. Now Langya's mother, Jueluo, is the head of the family.

Langya has eight older brothers and one younger brother.

His younger brother is Fu Heng, who will be famous in the future and will be enshrined in the Imperial Ancestral Temple. Now he is only 7 years old and cannot establish his own family.

The most promising one in the family is the eldest brother Guangcheng, who is now a third-rank cavalry commander and holds military power. The second is the second brother Fuqing, who is now a fifth-rank third-class guard.

Logically speaking, such a family background is already impressive enough in the court. Not to mention that Langya's uncle Ma Qi is still alive. He is one of the ministers appointed by Kangxi to Yinzhen for general affairs. He is deeply trusted by Yinzhen, who even conferred him the title of Prince Taifu.

But despite such a family background, the Gioro clan still pinned the family's glory on the original owner, forcing her to take pregnancy pills constantly, giving birth to children one after another which hurt her body. She also colluded with Su Lian to murder concubines and royal heirs, causing Hongli to suspect her for the rest of his life.

Langya believes that the Jueluo family is most responsible for the original owner's death!

Now that Langya is here, she will not give Jueluo the opportunity to control her.
