These years of being the queen mother!

Li Jinzhong, the eunuch who held the pen, asked some less important matters, and asked Yang Lingyue to step back, and swiped his pen in the blank space of the file with Yang Lingyue's name written on it, writing comments with a crisp voice, graceful actions, and good appearance.

Li Jinzong is actually Yang Lingyue's grandfather, Wei Zongxian who will be powerful in the future.The reason why he became an eunuch was because in order to avoid gambling debts, he left the palace on his own and changed his name. Through the emperor's eldest grandson's wet nurse Ke Baba, he flattered Wei Chao, a subordinate of the eunuch Wang An's eunuch Wang An, the supervisor of ceremonies, and thus became prosperous. , and now it has replaced the Wei Dynasty. Under Wang An's appreciation, he became one of the eunuchs of Bingbi.

In the Ming Dynasty, a supervisor of ceremonies was set up.It is one of the "Twelve Supervisors" of the Ming Dynasty's inner court to manage eunuchs and palace affairs. It was first placed in the 17th year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty.There are eunuchs such as the admiral, palm seal, Bingbi, Suitang and so on.Admirals and eunuchs are in charge of all etiquette, criminal names, management errands and hearings in the imperial city.The Supervisor of Rites is known as the "First Department".

The Ritual Superintendent shall set up "one eunuch who holds prints, eight or four or five eunuchs who hold pens and follow the hall, and one admiral who ranks above the supervisor and lives in the yamen. He is in charge of ancient and modern books, famous paintings, albums and Leaves, hand scrolls, pens, inkstones, inks, veils, silk cloth, and paper cuts are all stored in their own warehouses. The senior and diligent supervisors are selected to hold the keys. Four or six or seven members of the department will assist them. The Neishutang also belongs to it. There are also four or six or seven members in charge of the Jingchang, who live in the Jingchang, and only take care of the scripture printing boards and printed books, Buddhism, Taoism, and Tibet.The duties and powers of the supervisor of ceremonies are to be in charge of wedding and funeral ceremonies, rewarding pen, ink, calligraphy and painting, and supervising Guanglu Division to provide palace banquets and other affairs.

It can be said that the power of the eunuchs who have entered the office of the Chief of Rites is very great, and they cannot be held by non-emperor cronies.The reason why Li Jinzhong became one of the eunuchs of Bingbi was only because of the appreciation of Wang An, the palm print eunuch, and because of his collusion with Ke Baba, and with her help, he was very respectable in front of the emperor's grandson Zhu Youxiao.Now seeing his granddaughter Yang Lingyue who looks three points similar to his original partner Lin, I have to say that Li Jinzhong's ambition for power is boiling, maybe he can...

Yang Lingyue didn't know Li Jinzhong's secret plan, and didn't want to know.Ever since she suspected that the future nine thousand year old Wei Zongxian was her grandfather, Yang Lingyue had a very strong premonition that perhaps she was doomed to be ups and downs in the imperial harem of the Ming Dynasty in this life.Yang Lingyue has always been a master who can quickly recognize herself and understand what she needs.She believed in her intuition very much. From guessing that if Wei Zongxian knew her existence, according to the evaluation of Wei Zongxian in history, the careerist who loves power, arbitrarily decides the state affairs, and makes the people of the country only know that there are loyal and sages, but not the emperor, will definitely not Give up the possibility of being able to go further.

Yang Lingyue believes that a person who is ruthless about self-exiting from the palace and trying every means to enter the Forbidden City for the sake of power, once he finds out that there is a better chance to gain power, he will definitely use any means.Don't talk about kinship, the original owner's father can kick the original mother, son and three daughters out of the house because of the concubine's crying, which proves that in the eyes of some people, kinship is nothing.

Since it is irreversible for her to enter the palace in the future, she chooses to accept it. Anyway, in later generations, she does not believe in the nonsense of one couple in one life. In this ancient time, she still expects to have illusory love.

Yang Lingyue bit her lips lightly, and looked up at the still clear sky.She will use all favorable conditions to make her life better, and she will try her best to catch Wei Zhongxian's line and bring back Yang Mingda who has gone to Liaodong and has no news.The younger brother she has identified in this life, his safety is probably her obsession that is about to become a demon now.

With a lot of thoughts in his heart, but his face remained calm, he moved his lotus steps lightly, and returned to the temporary residence of the beautiful girls with a graceful posture, watching the laughing and joking of the beautiful girls in the courtyard with cold eyes.Isn't it just thinking about passing the primary election, so arrogant and judging people with white eyes.No wonder the history professor who liked to study Ming and Qing history when he was in college once joked that although the women selected by the Ming Dynasty were selected by the public, although they looked outstanding, they were not very grand because of the limitations of small families. But in terms of quality, it is inferior to the Eight Banners draft in the Qing Dynasty...

At the beginning, in order to refute the view of the professor of history, I started a heated discussion with the prodigal Empress Dowager Cixi as the starting point, and the result was naturally disastrous.But seeing these so-called good family sons now, Yang Lingyue has a certain degree of identification with the history professor strangely. This shallow-sighted, even the results of the primary election have not been announced, so he self-righteously recognizes his opponent and fights.That rough technique made Yang Lingyue mourn in silence for their future husband...

Oh, forgot, she is probably one of them.

Yang Lingyue twitched her mouth, said a few words to Miss Wang, who was more scheming among them, then went back to the small room alone, lay on the wooden bed by the window, and closed her eyes for a short rest.

Yang Lingyue, who fell asleep unknowingly, was woken up by Miss Wang.Seeing Yang Lingyue looking at her with the same eyes, she couldn't help but raise her mouth, and said with a shallow smile.

"The aunt in charge told us to gather, saying that there is something very important to talk about."

After Yang Lingyue blinked her eyes and calmed down her tiredness, she thanked Ms. Wang sweetly, fetched a basin of water, and tidied her appearance a little. Under Ms. Wang's joking voice, she looked like two sisters, We went to the meeting point together.As soon as she entered the line of show girls, Yang Lingyue felt that someone was secretly looking at her.

Taking advantage of her figure, Yang Lingyue looked back cautiously, and found that the person looking at her was actually the old eunuch named Li Jinzhong. She couldn't help but secretly wondered that he was nodding to herself with apologetic eyes.

Could it be that he is actually Wei Zongxian, and the current Li Jinzhong is just a pseudonym! ! !

Thinking of this, Yang Lingyue's heart skipped a beat.She didn't understand why she had this thought, but once it appeared, she couldn't get rid of it, and it became more and more profound.

Yang Lingyue has always believed in her intuition, so as soon as this idea appeared.She didn't think about the fact that she was wrong. Instead, she kept throwing out reasons, assuming that Li Jinzhong was the possibility of Wei Zhongxian.

Yang Lingyue remembered that the cheap mother had told Yuanshen before her death that Yuanshen's grandfather named Wei Tiedan had no money to repay his gambling debts, so he had to leave his grandmother and cheap mother and go to Yanjing to beg for a living ...Yang Lingyue thought, judging from the nature of cheap grandpa, it is very possible that he changed his name in order to avoid subsequent troubles.

The more she thought about it, the more she felt that it was the same thing. Yang Lingyue took another sneak peek at Li Jinzhong, who was dressed gorgeously and looked like a dog, and secretly warned herself to calm down and not be confused by the current or hypothetical thoughts. If it wasn't Wei Zhongxian, Yang Lingyue, who was astute and intelligent, felt that he had no malice towards her, so self-disruption was unacceptable.

Just when Yang Lingyue had countless thoughts in his mind, Li Jinzhong suddenly spoke. "Just now the palace sent a letter to the miscellaneous family, saying that the emperor was ill and the draft was suspended. After discussing with other eunuchs, the miscellaneous family felt that the primary election was over. Send it back, so I invite all the beautiful girls to temporarily stay in the back house of the county government office, and when there is news, the selected beautiful girls will be admitted to the palace."

As soon as this news came out, all the show girls who were still worried about their fate were in an uproar.They are both happy and disappointed.The draft is only halfway through. If the (primary) draft is over and they are sent to the Forbidden City, their future is really at a loss.In the Ming Dynasty, there was a saying that concubines were buried (Ming Chengzu Zhu Di set a precedent). It is good to say that the newly succeeded emperor has recovered. Once he dies, it is impossible to take them to be buried. , Fortunately, the draft is only halfway through, fortunately they have not yet been sent to the Forbidden City...

Unlike the show girls who were uneasy, Yang Lingyue, who was familiar with the direction of history, was even more at a loss.If we follow the historical trajectory, the new emperor Zhu Changluo, who is in poor health, will become the emperor of January and will soon die, and they, the group of beautiful women who should have been selected to fill the harem of today's emperor, will become the successor emperor. Zhu Changluo, who succeeded Zhu Changluo, was selected by the school.Some of them will become queens, some will become concubines, and some will become court ladies, or concubines of other vassal kings. In short, compared to the possible burial, they are undoubtedly "lucky".

But, why do I feel at a loss!

Yang Lingyue touched the skirt of her chest, feeling her heart beating violently.Yang Lingyue stood quietly in the center of the show girls, watching with cold eyes the show girls who were named famous and declared unsuccessful, either happy or disappointed, and all sentient beings left with the maids in various states.In the eyes of the deserted Yang Lingyue, it is not a bad idea to be able to lose the election and go home to marry on her own. It is much better than staying in this square county government house and waiting for an unknown fate.However, looking at Miss Fan who couldn't hide her disappointment and left crying, Yang Lingyue curled her lips and smiled ironically.

Look, isn't there a girl here who doesn't think so.
