When Jiang Wanyin woke up, it was already dark outside the house.

As soon as Jiang Wanyin woke up, she alarmed Wu who was dozing by the bed.

"Mom, are you awake?"

Mrs. Wu helped Jiang Wanyin to sit up.

"What's wrong with me?"

Jiang Wanyin didn't think about her passing out for a while, but she immediately thought of her daughter.

"How is the imperial concubine? Where is the little prince?"

"Mother, don't worry, the imperial concubine and the little prince are fine. The imperial doctor has checked the pulse of the imperial concubine and the little prince. Although the imperial concubine's body is injured, it is not serious, and it will take two months to recuperate slowly." Healed up. The little prince is also in good health."

"It's you, mother. The imperial doctor said that you fainted because you were too worried and nervous. I told you to go back and have a good rest."

Hearing what Wu Shi said, Jiang Wanyin finally remembered that she fainted because of exhaustion of supernatural energy.

"I'm fine, I'm just tired. Is the imperial concubine awake?"

She knows her own body, so she is not worried about herself, but her daughter.

"Not yet. The imperial doctor told the empress to wake up naturally."

"That's how it should be."

Seeing the lights in the room and the unfamiliar surroundings, Jiang Wanyin immediately glanced outside.

"What time is it? I should leave the palace? Where's your aunt?"

"Mother, don't worry, the Empress Dowager Empress gave her grace to let her daughter-in-law stay with you in the palace for a night before leaving the palace. My aunt has already left the palace, and my daughter-in-law has asked her aunt to bring you home."

Hearing that it was the grace from the Supreme Empress, and Jiang Qin's family had brought a message to Xue's family, Jiang Wanyin felt relieved.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law spent the night in the palace and slept in the same room.

After waiting for two days, Jiang Wanyin saw the newborn little prince and also saw her daughter who had woken up.

Mother and daughter have the opportunity to talk about their own words.

"Ying'er, what's going on with you? Do you know how many things that can kill you are hidden in the delivery room."

Thinking of the life-threatening things found in the delivery room, Jiang Wanyin shuddered. Those things were all meant to kill her daughter.

What made Jiang Wanyin angry was that her daughter, the dignified concubine, the lord of the Changle Palace, managed the palace so laxly that someone stretched her hands into her delivery room.

"The midwife was arranged by the empress, and my daughter can't help it. My daughter didn't expect this to happen."

"The day before, my daughter felt that she was about to give birth. My daughter begged the empress to let you enter the palace to accompany her daughter, but the empress said that your identity was inappropriate and she refused to allow you to enter the palace. When I gave birth yesterday, I just entered the palace. After a while in the delivery room, the daughter felt weak all over, and the daughter knew that she had fallen for them."

"My daughter thought that her child would never be born again, that she and the child in her womb were going to die, that she would never see An'er and Ning'er again, and that she would never see your mother again. My daughter was terrified. gone."

After experiencing life and death, Bao Ying was really scared.

Seeing Baoying crying, Jiang Wanyin finally swallowed what she wanted to say.Crying during this confinement period is not good for women's eyes, Jiang Wanyin felt sorry for her daughter and hurriedly comforted Bao Ying.

"Okay, the matter is over, and now you and the little prince are fine. It's over, empress, please stop crying. You are still in confinement, and crying during confinement will hurt your eyes."

Jiang Wanyin hugged her daughter in her arms to comfort her.

"Mother, it's a good thing you're here, otherwise my daughter might never see you again."

Baoying's mood is unstable and she keeps crying.

"My daughter didn't expect the empress to be her. My daughter has always been respectful to her. Why did she do this?"

"Silly boy, this person can change."

Unexpectedly, her daughter didn't suspect that she had guarded against the empress, Jiang Wanyin couldn't help but regret that she forgot to remind her when she entered the palace.

"It's all because mother forgot to tell. She only remembered to let you respect the empress, but she forgot to tell you that people can change."

"In the past, the empress was Princess Kang. She was virtuous, generous, benevolent, kind, and even though she had no children, she could still take the position of Prince Kang because of her good reputation; after all, there is no princess in the royal family who would give up because of childlessness. But now it is different, now she is the Empress Empress, no matter how virtuous the Empress Empress is, the position of a childless empress will be unstable after all."

There are not many queens who were deposed because of childlessness in history.

"And you are a noble concubine who is second only to the empress. You have a high status and a son who favors you; moreover, your elder brother is married to the empress's family. In the eyes of the empress, you have already threatened her future. bit."

"But my daughter has never coveted the next position."

All her thoughts were on the child, and she didn't think about anything else at all.

"You don't have covetous thoughts, but how does the queen know what you are thinking. Besides, no matter whether you covet the posthumous position or not, your existence has already threatened her posthumous position."

Empress Wu's natal family background is not obvious, because the saint was not favored when he was the fourth prince, and he also deliberately suppressed Prince Kang, so the concubine chosen for Prince Kang was only the daughter of a third-rank official family.And no matter at the beginning or now, the empress's mother's family only has the empress's father as an official, and her brothers can't do anything.

Now when it comes to family background, Baoying is no worse than the empress, especially after recognizing her uncle, who is a confidant of the sage, and her brothers have already become officials, and the elder brother has to be reused by the sage.

This family background, status, sons, holy favors, Baoying has everything, so the queen who has no family, no sons and no favors is not a huge threat.

Jiang Wanyin shared these analyzes with Bao Ying.

"Is it because of this that she wants to kill our mother and son?"

"It may not be that the empress did it herself, but it is indispensable to contribute to the flames."

The queen may be scruples about saints, she will not personally deal with Baoying and Baoying's children, but Baoying threatens her successor, she absolutely cannot tolerate Baoying; so the queen must be secretly contributing to this matter.

"No matter what, Ying'er, you have to beware of the Empress Empress in the future."

"Ying'er, an old man in the palace said that this woman is a lonely person if she enters the harem. If she wants to survive in the harem, she can't trust anyone in the palace. Mother thinks what she said is very reasonable. Mother will now This tells you, remember, there are no sisters in this harem, you must not trust others, and you remember to beware of anyone in this palace."

Jiang Wanyin made the matter more serious, just to let Bao Ying remember.

"After this incident, my daughter has learned a lesson. Mother, my daughter will remember everything you said."

"That's good."

"Nothing else is important now. The most important thing right now is your body, Ying'er. All other things will be discussed after you recover."

"Only if you are in good health, empress, can you be favored by His Majesty. Only if you are in good health can you properly protect the prince and princess from growing up. Only if you are in good health can you keep them from wishing well."

Baoying leaned in Jiang Wanyin's arms and listened to Jiang Wanyin's words. She didn't speak, but she agreed with Jiang Wanyin's words in her heart.

What mother said is right, only if she is good, can they prevent their wishful thinking from succeeding.

Since they can't tolerate her, she will live a better life than them.

Bao Ying's eyes showed fighting spirit and desire.

After reassuring their daughter, Jiang Wanyin and Wu shi did not stay in the palace for too long, and left the palace that morning to go home.

Everyone in the Xue family was relieved when they learned that Baoying's mother and child were safe from Jiang Wanyin and Wu's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

Because of Jiang Qin's help, Jiang Wanyin asked Wu to prepare a thank you gift and send it to Jiang's residence.

In the coming days, Jiang Wanyin is more at ease with her grandchildren, she doesn't care about things outside or inside the house.

It has been less than a year since the new emperor ascended the throne, and neither the harem nor the former court is peaceful.

Although the old sage abdicated, he refused to let go of power.Some veterans of the imperial court also rely on their elders to sell their elders and dictate to the imperial court, which greatly hinders the saint's handling of government affairs and gathering power.

The power struggle between the saint and the old saint has also officially begun.In order to constrain the saint, the old saint supported Zhongping County King and the original Prince Rong to fight the saint.

In this year, Jiang Wanyin learned the news from Xue Hong that Lin Ruhai, the patrol censor, was actually transferred back to Beijing, and returned with his wife and children.

Because of Jiang Wanyin's letter back then, Jia Min had two sons and one daughter, and the Lin family had finally survived.

The Lin family did not lose their incense, but they had less contact with the Rongguo Mansion.In the final analysis, it was Mrs. Wang and Jia Shishi's scheme that was discovered by Lin Ruhai and his wife.

A few years passed, the three Xue Hong brothers also had a few new children, and Xue Pan also reached the age of marriage.

It's just that although Xue Pan is Xue Yan's concubine, he really doesn't have any skills. He is not as good as his concubine brother Xue Yu even in business, but because he is the younger brother of Concubine Yi, Xue Yan also found Xue Pan's official daughter as his wife. .

Because of Jiang Wanyin's letter to Master Zhen back then, the Zhen family had moved away from Jinling long ago, so naturally there was no abducted Zhen Yinglian.And because Xue Yan is still there, Xue Pan has no chance to meet Jia Yinglian and beat Feng Yuan to death again, so naturally there is no such thing as Wang Xiuyao's mother and child going to Beijing to avoid disaster.

Although Xue Pan didn't have any extraordinary talent in business, after many years of experience with Xue Yan, he could barely keep up.

After Xue Pan got married, Xue Yan handed Xue Pan over to take care of the Xue family business, and Xue Yu assisted Xue Pan from the side.Both Wang Xiuyao and Li Jieniang stayed in Jinling, but Xue Yan brought Xue Baochai to Beijing.

Xue Baochai is 12 years old.

After Baoying gave birth to the fifth prince these years, only two princesses were born in the palace.Baoying already has two sons and one daughter, Jiang Wanyin has advised her not to have another child, and Baoying has also decided not to have another child.The Empress Dowager has issued a decree for next year's general election.

In the past few years, the old saint's successor, the Empress Dowager of the Palace of Compassion, has passed away, and now there is only one Empress Empress in the palace.However, Concubine Zhen Gui is still favored by the old sage, and this kind of affection is not comparable to that of the Empress Dowager.

The eldest son of Concubine Zhen Gui, who was already Prince Zhongping in the previous dynasty, is still fighting with the saint endlessly.

Xue Baochai will be thirteen next year, and when she is old enough to run for election, Jiang Wanyin probably knows what Xue Yan is up to, but she doesn't care.Concubine Yi is already in the palace of the Xue family, as long as the saint is not stupid and Concubine Yi is not out of favor, it is impossible for Xue Baochai to enter the palace.

In this year, Wang Ziteng was promoted to the control of the nine provinces, and he was ordered to investigate the border and left Beijing.

Jiang Wanyin knew that the time to visit her relatives was coming.

The next year's draft was as expected by Jiang Wanyin. The 13-year-old Xue Baochai was not selected into the harem.The Empress Dowager looked at Xue Baochai, thinking that Xue Baochai was plump and easy to bear.It's just that the saint, the queen, and Baoying are unwilling.

Although Xue Baochai is plump, she is still a great beauty; although she is not as beautiful as Bao Ying, she can be regarded as an alluring beauty.There is already a beautiful and crowned concubine Yi in the palace, so how could the queen and other concubines in the harem allow Xue Baochai to enter the palace.

In the end, Xue Baochai was married by the sage and assigned to the clan as the princess of the county.This is completely for the sake of Concubine Yi.Of course, this can be regarded as the complete ambition of Xue Baochai.

After the general election this year, the sage conferred many concubines, including two noble concubines, one Zhou Guifei and the other Wu Guifei.

Qin Keqing of Ningguo Mansion died this year.

In this year, Jia Yuanchun was suddenly promoted to Fengzao Palace Shangshu and Xiande Concubine with the status of beauty.Although a concubine was suddenly granted the title of female official and then double-worded concubine, such an inexplicable and weird canonization, anyone with a discerning eye could see that something was wrong, but the government of the Communist Party of China celebrated Jia Yuanchun's concubine ecstasy.

The invitations were also sent to Xue's house, but Xue Yan only ordered to send congratulatory gifts, and did not come to the door.

It was also in this year that the sage decreed that concubines in the harem could go out of the palace to visit relatives.

For this matter, Jiang Wanyin asked Mrs. Wu to take her into the palace, and told Baoying that she didn't need to go back to the palace to visit her relatives.Jiang Wanyin explained to Bao Ying in detail, dispelling Bao Ying's idea of ​​visiting her relatives.

The old sage and the sage fought more and more fiercely. In order to avoid disaster, brothers Xue Ling and Xue Xun took their wives and children out of Beijing.As for Xue Hong, she couldn't escape and could only stay in Beijing.

But Xue Hong is protected by his uncle Jiang Shangyun, so Jiang Wanyin is also relieved.

It wasn't until she met Jiang Shangyun that Jiang Wanyin realized that it was thanks to Jiang Shangyun's writing that Xue Hong was able to gain a foothold in Beijing.

Jiang Wanyin didn't care about the affairs of the court and harem, she only wanted her children to be safe.

Things are also developing according to the original track.

This year, Jiang Wanyin suddenly heard the news that the old saint had a stroke outside the palace, and soon after that, Concubine Zhen Gui died of illness in the palace.

This woman who had been honored and favored by the old sage for decades and who had suppressed the Empress Dowager for decades finally died.

The death of Concubine Zhen Gui seemed to have kicked off the prelude, and then the Supreme Emperor also passed away not long after.After the death of the Supreme Emperor, Prince Zhongping was subsequently confiscated/banned, and the Zhen family was confiscated and exiled.

Then there were rumors from the Wang family and the palace that Prince Teng died of illness and Concubine Xiande passed away. Not long after, the Rongguo Mansion suddenly sent invitations to the door.Without Xue Baochai, Lin Daiyu could not be married, and Jia Baoyu finally married Shi Xiangyun.

During the period of national filial piety, the Rongguo Mansion dared to hold a happy event. Who would dare to go? In the end, the Xue family only sent a gift.

Within a few months, Jiang Wanyin heard from Xue Hong that the Rongguo Mansion, the Wang family, and the historian's house had been ransacked. Jiang Wanyin took this opportunity to spread out Mrs. Wang's loan for lending money and loan sharks, and finally Mrs. Wang was tattooed and exiled.But Jiang Wanyin didn't let her leave the capital alive.

After the sages cleaned up and ransacked their homes wantonly this time, there were not many families left.

In the second year after the Empress Dowager passed away, the old Empress Dowager died.The empress, who had no children and no favors but was respected only by the saint, also failed to survive the saint and became the mother empress dowager. In the end, she only became the queen for 13 years.

After the empress died, the ministers of the former court began to invite the new empress.

There was news in the palace that the sage intended to make Noble Concubine Yi his successor. After all, Concubine Yi was the only concubine in the palace who had two sons and one daughter, and she was also the highest-ranking concubine in the palace.

It's just that the officials of the former dynasty used Concubine Yi's background as an issue, saying that Concubine Yi was born of a concubine and could not be a queen.Some of the ministers of the former court supported the second prince's mother Li Shufei as the successor, while others hoped that the sage would re-engage a new queen. In short, the court debated endlessly about this matter.

In the end, the sage made a final decision, and he would not be named a new queen.

On the same day, the saint decreed that Noble Concubine Yi should be crowned as Noble Concubine, and that she would be in charge of Fengyin and lead the harem as a vice queen.

Because Jiang Wanyin was the birth mother of the imperial concubine, she received the grace of a saint and was awarded the third-rank imperial order Shuren.At this time, Xue Hong was already a third-rank official.Wang Xiuyao is also a lady of the third rank, so Jiang Wanyin and Wang Xiuyao are regarded as equals.

After Baoying became the imperial concubine, Jiang Shangyun went to Xue's house to discuss with Xue Hong and his son for a long time, and then Xue Yan went back to Jinling.

Jiang Wanyin asked Xue Hong to find out that Xue Yan planned to go back to Jinling to look at Xue Pan and Xue Yu.

Perhaps due to jealousy or other reasons, after Xue Baochai got married, Wang Xiuyao went back to Jinling to live with Xue Pan in Jinling, and never went to Beijing.

Later, it was reported in the palace that His Majesty's new favourite, and now the most favored one in the palace is no longer the imperial concubine.

The second prince has been married for many years, even the child is too early, and he has already entered the court as an errand.After the queen's filial piety, the 17-year-old fourth prince also entered the court as an errand after his wedding.

This new round of seizing the throne has already quietly begun.

The saints did not live as long as the old saints back then, and passed away after less than 30 years in office.

During this time, Jiang Wanyin sent Wang Xiuyao away first.After Wang Xiuyao left, Xue Yan straightened Jiang Wanyin up, and Jiang Wanyin became Xue Yan's stepmother, and Jiang Wanyin's four sons and daughters became the stepmother's sons and daughters decades later.

In fact, after the empress died, Xue Yan had thought about it when the court was discussing the appointment of the empress, but was stopped by Jiang Wanyin.

One is that Jiang Wanyin doesn't want Xue's family to be caught by others; After all, Xue Yan didn't let Xue Yan attack Wang Xiuyao ruthlessly.

Wang Xiuyao passed away when the saint was 20 years old. At that time, she was over [-] years old, and Wang Xiuyao died of old age.

After Wang Xiuyao's filial piety, Xue Yan helped Jiang Wanyin to the right.

At that time, Xue Yan's health was extremely poor, and it was Jiang Wanyin who tried everything to save his life.Jiang Wanyin did this in order to wait for Wang Xiuyao to die, and for Xue Yan to right her, so that her sons and daughters could become legitimate daughters.

In the second year Jiang Wanyin became Xue Yan's successor, Xue Yan also went.

Jiang Wanyin's grandson disciple Xi won the fight against the second prince and the saint, and finally ascended to the throne.

The fourth prince, Tu Xi, ascended the throne, and the imperial concubine, Bao Ying, became the new empress dowager based on her son.

After the empress dowager canonization ceremony, when Jiang Wanyin led her daughter-in-law, grandson-in-law and great-grandson into the palace to meet the empress dowager, Jiang Wanyin was already in her seventies.

"The minister's wife pays homage to the empress dowager."

Jiang Wanyin leaned on the dragon-headed staff given by the emperor's grandson, and knelt down to salute with the support of her grandson-in-law.The empress dowager got up from the phoenix seat and personally supported Jiang Wanyin.

"Mother."
