Because the empress lost her son, the emperor actually had only four sons and one daughter, and the four princes were all concubines.In the late spring of this year, Ruyi and Hailan jointly proposed, because the harem had repeatedly lost children, which hurt the yin and prey. In order to have more children, the emperor and the empress took the harem concubines and accompanied them to the Old Summer Palace to accompany them.One is to relax, the other is to take this opportunity to have more children in the palace, and the third is to agree with the Empress Dowager's wishes and keep herself by her side. went.

In Yuanmingyuan, neither the queen nor the concubine had much eyeliner of her own, but Ruyi could bring people around her to serve her.Although it looks like he is not in the palace, it is actually safer than in the palace.

Sure enough, not long after arriving in the Old Summer Palace, Mrs. Lu was only 15 years old, and because of her youthful beauty, she was favored by the Holy Will, and soon she was appointed Qing Changzai, and she was very favored by the emperor's side.In addition, Mei Concubine and Hai Lan's two old loves are hard to lose, and their new favorites are in power. As a result, the Old Summer Palace became more lively, and Jia Concubine became more and more ignorant of the pregnant Ruyi, focusing on fighting for favor.

In fact, what Ruyi is more worried about is not the palace, but the Ulanara mansion outside the palace.At this time in the book, the news of her father Narbu's death is coming.Fortunately, in this life, she sent a message outside the palace early to let her family take good care of themselves. In addition, she did not enter the cold palace. Now that she has given birth to the prince and is pregnant, the parents in the family are getting more and more angry, so naturally they will not die easily.

The Ulanara Mansion, once a wealthy family and a wealthy family with numerous empresses and concubines, although it is no longer as majestic as it used to be, but as the fourth elder brother's natal family, it will not collapse as soon as it is said.Right now, apart from her parents, Ruyi is worried about her ten-year-old brother Nali and eight-year-old sister Lanying.The siblings are still young, at least within ten years, the Ulanara family will rely on Ruyi to support their appearance.

Thinking so, Ruyi could not help but order Yizheng to get in touch with Duoduo outside the palace.

At the end of May and the beginning of June, it rained continuously for several days in the Old Summer Palace, making it more refreshing and cool.Ruyi sat in the warm pavilion of Shaojingxuan, looking at the newly bloomed bowl lotuses in the large celadon vat on the porch, one by one, the pink color was like peach blossoms in the rain, and they were full of flowers.

Hai Lan teased a parrot with colorful feathers on the copper wire shelf at hand, and said leisurely: "The emperor really loves my sister, even I moved into Shao Jingxuan under the help of my sister, so I don't have to be like the queen and other young masters." , Crowded in the world of Qingyan in Kyushu, it is crowded and noisy, and separated from the emperor, so it is really inconvenient to come and go. I pay my respects to the queen on weekdays, but I often hear the concubine's run on me."

"Who is in the emperor's heart, it doesn't matter how far or near. For example, if the emperor doesn't agree in his heart, what can she do if she lives in Le'an Hetang?" Ruyi took a jade hairpin, smiled and played with the parrot, "the same thing , Your Majesty misses you, so how can you borrow my light by living in Shaojingxuan?"

"My sister is joking again. In the emperor's heart, my sister is naturally more important than me." Hailan smiled gently, and stroked her temples like cicada wings. Sister Chunfei. I heard that the third elder brother has caught some wind and cold in the past few days, so I don't know how it is today."

"Alright." Ruyi stood up holding her stomach. She is now nearly seven months pregnant. In order to give birth smoothly, Jiang Yubin kept telling her to exercise properly.This pregnancy has been diagnosed as a princess, and Ruyi did not hide it from others. Although the emperor is a little regretful, it is not too bad to have a son and a daughter together. Even those who are jealous of her pregnancy are relieved and will no longer Shot to assassinate.

In the spring of Tiandijia, Concubine Chun was sitting in the courtyard, admiring the green bamboos in the yard.The three of them met each other before hearing Hailan praise: "Sister Chunfei lives here is a good place, this bamboo just fits my sister's name."

Concubine Chun's real name is Su Luyun, which means bamboo.She smiled gracefully, shook her head and said: "How can it be my turn to a good place? Not even a single flower blooms, it's just a deception. It can't compare to the Shaojingxuan where the imperial concubine and you live. Surrounded by pines and willows, not to mention the superb scenery, it is just across the bank from the Emperor’s Le’an Hetang, which is the closest.”

Ruyi smiled softly, pulled the newly made rose purple flying golden dress on Concubine Chun and said, "Concubine Chun, stop teasing Hailan. Now you are raising the third elder brother yourself, and your status is unusual, so others are naturally Flattery, do you still care about where you live? In the Old Summer Palace, there are good places to go on the left and right."

The pure concubine was delighted to hear that, and pushed a string of agate red gold nine-ring bracelets onto Hailan's wrist, and said affectionately: "The concubine has the joy of reuniting with the third elder brother today, and there is a day to be a concubine. Thanks to Concubine Yu's sister persuading Ben Gong to take a risk for the third elder brother, it was just a joke."

While chatting, suddenly there was a clear and melodious girl's laughter, it was the third elder brother playing with a few nurses in the corridor, and beside him was a palace lady in blue, with handsome eyes, soft and pleasant, dressed in a court lady's attire Without losing her glamorous complexion, she looks like the spring willow Yiyi under the moonlit night.Ruyi thought about it, pointed at her and asked, "That palace lady looked unfamiliar, but who is it?"

Concubine Chun glanced at it, and said with a smile: "It was assigned by elder brother's office, named Yan Wan. I thought she was very sensible, so I specially assigned her to serve Yongzhang's tea and snacks."

Hai Lanning took a look, was slightly taken aback, and said in an instant: "As expected of serving at Sister Chunfei's place, she looks much smarter than mine."

Ruyi also said, "It's a good name." Shen Yue's "Ode to Beauty" in the Southern Dynasties said, "The pavilion is like the moon, and the gracefulness is like spring. Concentrate on the price, and think about the clothes and scarves." If it is not to serve Sana Brother, I must ask you to go."

Looking at the fragile and pretty girl, she couldn't help laughing at herself for being so focused on dealing with Gao Xiyue's affairs these days that she forgot about Wei Yanwan.It turned out that she didn't go to the Leng Palace, and it didn't prevent Ling Yunche from finding a way to get her out of the Fourth Executive Treasury, and finally became the third elder brother's maid.At this moment, Ling Yunche doesn't know where to be a bodyguard, but it's a pity that he can't be used by her.

Even though she said so, Ruyi also knew that if she asked for someone, Concubine Chun would not refuse.Wei Yanwan is a person who only wants to fly on a branch to become a phoenix, and she has a deep scheming mind. Seeing that Ling Yunche has helped Ruyi in the book, it's better not to keep it to harm others.Furthermore, Wei Yanwan's ability to become Ruyi's strong opponent in the later stage may be due to the suppression too much.Now that Concubine Jia has just emerged, it is better to use Wei Yanwan to deal with her early.If Wei Yanwan really got out of control, then Ling Yunche would become Ruyi's most powerful card against her.

"It's just a court lady. If the imperial concubine wants it, the concubine will give it to the imperial concubine. I will let the Ministry of Internal Affairs send a good one someday." Although the pure concubine was surprised by Ruyi's attention to Wei Yanwan, she did not refuse.Although Wei Yanwan is useful, she is not irreplaceable. "Ke Xin, go and ask Yan Wan to come over."

Kexin responded and led Wei Yanwan over, and she prostrated herself in front of Ruyi, her voice was as clear as a spring in the mountains, and she spoke movingly: "The servant pays homage to the imperial concubine, and pleases the concubine."

Ruyi nodded, and said, "Get up. You really are a handsome person, is Concubine Chun willing?"

The pure concubine said with a smile: "The noble concubine has taken a fancy to Yan Wan. It is her blessing. What is there to be reluctant to do? Yan Wan, you can go with the imperial concubine today, and serve you wholeheartedly in the future. Don't be lazy and play tricks."

Concubine Xian has such a status in the palace, even if Concubine Chun is raised to the position of concubine, it is impossible to match her.Wei Yanwan heard that Ruyi liked her and asked her to serve her, she was overjoyed, but she also saluted very gracefully: "My servant thank you for your kindness."

Seeing that her words were appropriate, Ruyi thought to herself that she deserved to be the big boss in the future, and her behavior was just unusual.But without Wei Yanwan, what's the point of Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace?Just make some fun for yourself, anyway, Yehenala Yihuan will enter the palace soon, even if Wei Yanwan really becomes a concubine, she will not have the blessing to give birth to an heir in a short time.

She showed Yizheng with her eyes, and Yizheng knew it, and went to help Wei Yanwan up in person, and stuffed a purse into her sleeve.Then he beckoned Lingzhi to take her back to Shaojingxuan first, and teach her the rules by the way.

The next day, Hailan went to see the fifth elder brother at the concubine Jia and came back. Outside Shaojingxuan, she happened to meet the emperor who had seen Ruyi go out, and Wei Yanwan, who was picking pink and white jasmine flowers.

At that time, a bay of clear water meandered silently past Shaojing Pavilion like thin spring silk, gurgling down.The flowers and trees in the surrounding area are gradually sprouting light yellow and emerald green, and the grass is green and lush.Across the gap between the clumps of beautiful trees and the tiny leaves, the emperor said to the maid in Tsing Yi in front of him, "You are the maid of Concubine Xian? Why don't I remember seeing you."

Wei Yanwan said a little timidly, with a plain face of clear water, without makeup, elegant as a small gardenia half-bloomed in the wind, "This servant was originally serving the third elder brother, yesterday the imperial concubine went to see the pure concubine empress , and asked the empress for a servant girl."

The emperor smiled and lifted her small and round chin and said: "Well, no wonder Concubine Xian wants to say this, you really have your benefits."

Wei Yanwan dodged from under the emperor's finger, shyly and timidly said: "This servant is stupid and dare not bear such a compliment from the emperor."

The emperor's smile is like the spring breeze blowing on the face, melting the budding buds and giving birth to a tree of flowers blooming brightly: "What's your name?"

"The maid's name is Yan Wan."

"Yan Wan is very good, and the tongue is sweet when you read it. Which Yan Wan is it?" His eyes suddenly lit up, with a hint of teasing, "Shen Yue's "Ode to Beauty" in the Southern Dynasty said, "Tingting like the moon, Yan Wan is like spring. Concentrating on the price, thinking about clothes and scarves'. But Yan Wan from the side of the girl?"

There was a thin crimson color between Wei Yanwan's eyebrows, as if the clouds in the sky were condensed between her delicate eyebrows, and Yiyi refused to leave.She seemed to be a little afraid, her voice was soft, but restrained and distant, she said: "The poems read by the emperor are really nice, but it's a pity that the slaves don't understand."

There was a vigorous smile in the emperor's eyes, and he said: "You don't need to understand, because you are that beautiful woman who is as beautiful as spring. When you stand in front of me, you understand and understand everything." He seemed to think of it again. What, he asked, "Yanwan, what's your last name?"

Yan Wan seemed to mention something unpleasant, but she had no choice but to answer: "The servant girl was born in the Han army and was dressed in the yellow flag, and her mother's family name was Wei."

The emperor smiled slightly, seemingly relieved: "Wei's surname is ordinary, like a ghost who wants to make a difference. But the Han army is wearing a yellow flag, and his family background is not very low."

Her clear and melancholy eyes were covered by a sad shadow: "Although she was born in the three banners of the Han army, her father died early, and her brother is not up to date, it is really not a good family background."

The emperor's hand seemed to caress the back of her hand inadvertently: "Whether the family status is good or not, what the elders left doesn't count, but depends on whether you can live up to yourself and strive for a good family status."

Wei Yanwan's eyes lit up slightly, as if she understood.The initial evasion and shyness in her eyes slowly faded away, only a smile remained, her brows were shining, and she said timidly: "This servant is just a weak woman, is that okay?"

The emperor smiled: "If you were a man, it would be more difficult. If you were born as a weak woman, then it would be easy."

Wei Yanwan was startled for a moment, her confused and clear eyes seemed to be full of thoughts, as confused as floating catkins.The emperor smiled faintly: "You can think about the meaning of it slowly. I will wait for the day when, 'Entertainment is at this evening, and it is a good time'."

The emperor left alone, only Wei Yanwan, who was dressed in green and spring clothes, stood alone in the spring breeze and setting sun, meditating.Hailan felt resentful, and didn't want to go to see her again, so she went straight to Shaojingxuan.Ruyi was really tired seeing the emperor away, so she reclined on the beauty couch by the long window, and when she saw her come in, she couldn't help laughing and said, "Why did you come in so angry? Go and get a cup of jasmine tea."

As soon as Hailan heard the word "Jasmine", she became even more angry, "My sister just got married yesterday, but today she couldn't help showing off in front of the emperor. I don't understand, she has three points with my sister because of her distinct appearance." Similar, why does my sister keep her by my side?"

"Hai Lan, you also know that she is three points like me." Ruyi personally poured a cup of tea and handed it to her, her beautiful eyes slightly raised, clear and clear, "Then no matter when the emperor sees her, he will always think of me." ——Hailan, there will always be more women in this palace, so why don't I put her by the emperor's side? She is a palace maid who was born in a Han army flag, even if she really became the emperor's concubine, if she has nothing to do It's hard to get ahead just by acting as a substitute, she can only rely on us tightly and be used by us. To tell you the truth, I arranged for the emperor to meet her today."

"Sister?" Hai Lan was puzzled, bit her lip and said, "Sister, to the emperor..."

"Hailan, my affection is towards the fourth elder brother of Prince Bao's Mansion, towards the emperor... Hailan, the harem cannot allow me to have too much affection for the emperor." Ruyi sighed slowly, holding Hailan's hand tightly , "The Gao family has just fallen from power, so we shouldn't take action again, but with the appearance of Concubine Jia, Qing Changzai and Concubine Mei are the queen mother's people, so we need a newcomer to share favor with us. You will also be a little slow on Wei in the future Don't worry, Cisei, I have a way to make her obedient."

Hailan was still uneasy, Ruyi took a look at Yizheng, and Yizheng stepped forward and said in a low voice: "Miss Yu, don't worry, the origin of the Wei family has been found out. The father of the Wei family, Wei Qingtai, is the secretary of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Clothes slave, she committed crimes when she was an official and her whole family was demoted. Her family only has one brother, Zuolu, who is useless. Our little master has already sent a letter to the outside of the palace, asking the master to find a way to arrange Wei Qingtai and Zuolu to the Ulanala tribe. under the jurisdiction of the

Only then did Hailan feel relieved, and said: "That's all right, but in the future, we must put someone by her side to watch over her. Besides, I think the emperor is already interested in her, so when I find a good time, I'd better say something in person. Also let the emperor know that my sister is generous and tolerant."

"I'm pregnant right now, the emperor won't accept her so soon. It will take about two or three months. When the child is born, I will take the opportunity to ask the emperor to give her a favor." Ruyi shook the hand The purple sand teacup said leisurely, "If I say it now, I am afraid that the emperor will suspect me that I can't serve the bed, so I recommend a new person to win over the emperor, that would be bad."

Hailan nodded, and suddenly remembered something, and said: "Speaking of newcomers, I think that there are not many people in the harem at the moment. The queen mother originally planned to draft a talent show, but the prince Duanhui just passed away, and the emperor has no intention of doing it. A few days ago, the queen mother chose a few Gongqing's Gege is kept by her side. On the surface, she is a young lady who is raised by Ju. The joy of accompanying her when she grows old is presumably prepared for the emperor to enrich the harem in the future. Today, Qingchang is one, and there is also the daughter of a minister, Yongshou. Yehenala, I heard that the Queen Mother likes her very much, so she has always brought her by her side and trained her personally."

Ruyi sneered slightly: "So it's just the right time for the Wei family to appear. The queen has been feeling better recently, don't wait until she also releases her, the queen mother also releases her, and we are useless. Hai Lan , you are also the lord of the first house now, what you have to do now is not just to fight for favor, but to have an emperor's heir to secure favor."

Hailan spread her hands and smiled, "How many times have I told you, but it's not up to my sister to decide whether there will be an emperor's heir. Don't worry, sister, I have been using the abortion medicine prescribed by Imperial Physician Jiang, and the imperial physician also said it. Don't be impatient, the more impatient you are, the less likely you will be."

"You are not in a hurry yourself, why don't you allow me to be anxious for you?" Ruyi smiled and patted the back of her hand, "Forget it, when fate comes, dragon fetuses will naturally come. You are still young, and some of you are giving birth to dragon fetuses. No Like Wei Shi, even if she gave birth, she didn't have the life to support her own child."

In the next few months, as Yi had imagined, the emperor frequently "encountered" Wei Yanwan in Shaojingxuan.She asked Yizheng to teach Wei Yanwan not to deliberately stand out, just serving a snack and tea in front of the emperor, and occasionally making a trip or two to the Hall of Mental Cultivation to deliver things.Wei Yanwan knew that Ruyi wanted to promote her, and she was very grateful in her heart, but when the emperor looked at Wei Yanwan, he still couldn't help but think of Ruyi who gave birth to his own children, and she was not a scumbag to the end.

On the tenth day of September this year, the Double Ninth Festival had just passed, and in the autumn when dogwood was everywhere, Ruyi gave birth to the emperor's fourth daughter, He Shuo and Princess An Jing Yan.It's a good intention for a woman to be pure and dignified - out of taboo, she dare not use the names "Heyi" and "Jingsi".Fortunately, the fourth princess is in good health and has no serious illness, which makes Ruyi quite comforted.

Taking advantage of Jing Yan's full moon, Ruyi begged the emperor to give Wei Yanwan a favor.But he also vaguely mentioned that he didn't want the emperor to be extra graceful just because she was his court lady.Naturally, the emperor gave her permission, and as usual, appointed an official woman, and asked her to live with Hailan in Chuxiu Palace.

Wei Yanwan has become a Wei official girl, and I don't know how Ling Yunche feels.But Wei Yanwan herself is extremely happy, and only looks forward to becoming a master once.Although Hai Lan secretly disliked her, she did not dare to despise her because of Ruyi's words. Anyway, she was in Chuxiu Palace, and the two maids Xia Tang and Dong Xue who served beside her were also from Chuxiu Palace. , under the eyes of Ruyi and Hailan all the time.

Wei Yanwan is still quite up-to-date, even though the concubine Jia made things difficult in every possible way, even though Hailan, concubine Mei, and Qing Changzai all favored her differently, she still relied on her similarity to Ruyi and her own efforts to slowly gain favor in the eyes of the emperor. There is a place.At the end of the summer of the fifth year of Qianlong, Chu, Yue, Miao, and Yao colluded to cause trouble. The emperor thought that the matter of Miao and Yao was very important and involved a lot.

At this time, Wei Yanwan has already reached the permanent position step by step.And just as the emperor and the queen mother wished for a child, Hailan was already three months pregnant when Yujia returned to Luan, which made Ruyi very happy.After the birth of the fifth elder brother Yongxuan and the fourth princess Jing Yan in the fourth year of Qianlong's reign, the emperor heard about it again, and the pregnant Hailan, whom he had loved a lot in recent years, how could he not be happy.In addition, the imperial physician said that Hailan's body was not strong enough, and it would take four months to withstand the exhaustion of the journey. This delay will delay her return to Luan for another half a month.

Hailan was pregnant, and it was originally Ruyi who told her to keep her face, and she would not tell the emperor until her fetal gas was stable for three months.This is naturally the heartbeat of He Gong, Mei Concubine and Jia Concubine are still acceptable, the celebration of the emperor's new favorite is only a momentary interest, it has long been left out in the cold, and there is nothing to say.The saddest thing is the empress. In the past year in Yuanmingyuan, the emperor seldom visited her. She only had three princesses under her knees. She was pregnant with the pain of losing a child, but she saw the birth of each child and the pregnancy of each concubine. , One by one newcomers competed for favor, but it was difficult for him to even meet the emperor.

Ruyi has a panoramic view of the queen's changes, just waiting for a good show.
