I am the Queen

Chapter 146 Lingkun Palace Enters the Banquet

Qianlong and Lingxin went back to Lingkun Palace hand in hand, "I'm going to point out a Fujin for Yongji in a few days, and I've already thought about the candidate."

"It's not that we will choose a direct Fujin and a side Fujin for Yongji and the others in next year's draft, so why choose only Yongji at this time." Lingxin looked at Qianlong in surprise.

"Let's point out Yongji's side Fujin first. As for Yongxing and Yongjing's, it's the same. We will choose in the draft next year. In fact, we already know the candidate."

"How could you be so sudden?"

"The frontier war has just stabilized, and many things require money. However, the treasury has limited money. The side Fujin selected for Yongji this time is not a Manchu, nor a Han army banner. She is a Han, but her family is deeply rooted in the south of the Yangtze River." Many things Qianlong There is no way to tell Lingxin more, after all, the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics.

"Could it be that her family is in business?"

"Not all, her father is a Jiangnan salt transport envoy, but her grandfather is the richest man in the Jiangnan area in business, and her family is related to the officials of the DPRK and China. Her sister-in-law's family is the governor of Fujian, not to mention her other sister-in-laws, and her brother-in-law .”

"Co-authoring my son is for you to win over ministers." Lingxin gave Qianlong a dissatisfied look.

"How could it be? Most of the women around Yongji will marry politically in the future, and he has to get used to it." In fact, it's not about asking her father to give him money, but saving money for himself.

"So, I'm also in a political marriage." Lingxin began to ask the bottom line, looking for Qianlong's language mistakes.

"How? You are different from them."

"Why is it different? If I wasn't the daughter of the Wu Nala family, would you marry me? Would you pay attention to me? I'm afraid I don't even know who I am, maybe someone in this deep palace I will die alone in the corner." Lingxin deliberately quarreled with Qianlong, and she also knew that if she hadn't been born in Wu Nala's family, she wouldn't have known and loved Qianlong.

"How come, I like you as a person, not your last name. If I don't know you, then I won't have anyone here." Qianlong put Lingxin's hand on the place where his heart was, and said to Lingxin Also tell the truth.

"Sweet talk." Lingxin was as sweet as honey in her heart.

On the second day, "You should take good care of Elder Sixteen and Princess Ten, and don't let them eat indiscriminately. Everyone else is at ease, but Fifth Elder Brother, although these days have been quite peaceful, but , who knows if he will be abnormal again, Fengling, you have to be careful, I will go to the Palace of Compassion and Ning to accompany the Empress Dowager, if there is anything to do, send someone to the Palace of Compassion and Ning." Lingxin represented Fengling at the gate of Lingkun Palace.

Yongji and the others have come here a long time ago to see what needs to be changed, don’t look at today’s feast for elder brother Ge Ge Fujin, there is also some knowledge in it, like elder brother, ever since he was scolded by Qianlong at the funeral of Emperor Chunhui, elder brother Brother has been hiding in the mansion, claiming that he will not be sick, and Da Fujin will come forward for some entertainment, but every time Da Fujin sees the third elder brother and the others, he is a little embarrassed.There is also the fifth elder brother. The incident between him and Little Swallow Huanzhu Gege used to be a big deal. He offended the sisters by saying that he was not as lifeless as Gege in the palace. The fifth elder brother's family wanted to have a table alone.

"Princess Gu Lun's big wedding is different. The queen's mother held a two-day banquet, which compared us sisters." Princess Hejia and Fu Long'an were the first to come to Lingkun Palace. It seems to be mocking, but actually he laughed when he told Jia.

"Fourth sister." Yongji looked up when he heard He Jia's voice.

"Fourth sister." Qingyan approached affectionately and held He Jia's hand, "Is my sister's words envious or jealous?"

"Whatever you say is what you say?" Hejia and Qingyan dote on this younger sister even though they are sisters-in-law again.

"I thought I was the first to arrive, but I didn't expect Jia to be earlier than me." The third elder brother came in with San Fujin. The tassel swayed as she walked, standing with the third elder brother Yongzhang, male and female.

"Third Brother, Third Sister-in-law." Qingyan blessed Yongzhang and the others, "Sister-in-law San is really refreshed on happy occasions, and Qingyan hasn't congratulated Third Sister-in-law yet." She was pregnant, because everyone focused on Qingyan's marriage and only knew that San Fujin was pregnant. Only Sixth Brother and He Jia went to the Third Brother's house to congratulate her in person.

"Fifth Sister, today is your happy event. Why do you congratulate me instead?" Sanfujin smiled coquettishly, gently stroking her unconceived belly with her hands. She has been married to San Elder Brother for many years and there has been no news. Choosing the side Fujin for the third elder brother, Gege, was also afraid that the newcomers would peep at his position as the first Fujin because he had no children, and now there is no worry at all.

"Don't stand here, everyone. Everyone will come later, and when they see us standing here, they think something is wrong with us." He Jia smoothed things over, leaning towards his sister-in-law, who finally had this baby. Of course, it must be well protected, afraid that Qingyan will talk endlessly, and only wants to let sister-in-law sit down and rest.

"Qingyan, the third sister-in-law is just pregnant, so she needs to rest more." After all, Lan Xin is a person who has given birth before, so she knows this to some extent.

"Why didn't you see Ah De." The third elder brother saw that Lan Xin was missing her son. Since Lan Xin had Ah De, she would always bring her little oil bottle, Ah De, no matter when she entered the palace or wherever she went.

"Ah De is playing with his sixteenth uncle inside, and the nurse is watching inside." Lan Xin thought of her sixteenth brother, seeing Ah De's excitement, people who don't know will think they are brothers, and the nephew and uncle are about the same age almost.

"Wow, it's been a long time since I entered the palace, Yongqi, you are so kind, let me enter the palace to play, I want to see the imperial concubine." Little Yanzi knew that Yongqi liked her initial appearance, and she didn't want her to become scheming, so she said Try to speak as innocently as possible.

"Yangege, there is no imperial concubine now, only the Wei family in Xinzhekuli, Yangege, today is Princess Heyan's banquet, and you can't come in your capacity. I don't care about letting you enter the palace. Your last Be quietly by your side, don't embarrass him." Fang Fu was very worried about Little Yanzi sending the maid beside her to Yongqi's bed, and now she is pregnant, especially Yongqi's attitude towards Little Yanzi Also changed.

"Yes, Fujin." Little Yanzi didn't want to speak against Fujin in front of Yongqi, she had just changed Yongqi's opinion of herself, and because of framing Fangfu, Yongqi had lost her original love for herself, but she knew that she It is not that there is no place in Yongqi's mind.

"Little Yanzi, now he has become polite. It would be great if he could become educated and reasonable." Yong Qi was delighted that Little Yanzi could change his heart for herself. Ma Jiang became Beizi, Beizi, and a plaque was knocked down in the capital. At least four of the ten nobles were Beizi. Almost, but now he knows that everything he has is given by Huang Ama, and he can take back a word at any time. life, he will not adapt.

"Yongqi, I'm already reading the complete set of idioms you gave me, and I'm also looking at women's rings. Although I don't know many words, Ziwei will often come to teach me, and I will definitely not let you lose face." Qi's arm, and glanced at Fangfu proudly.

"Five princesses, congratulations, I didn't have time to congratulate you last time, so I want to congratulate you well today." Fang Fu ignored little Yanzi, turned around and went in, and when she saw Qing Yan, she took her hand affectionately and spoke, swearing She is the fifth elder brother Mingmei's wife, and the fifth elder brother and sister will respectfully call her fifth sister-in-law when they see her.

"Fifth sister-in-law, it's been a long time since I saw you become more beautiful and charming." No one would say nice words, not to mention that the empress's lineage has prejudices against Yong Qi, and Qing Yan can only call Yong Qi fifth brother in front of people.

"No matter how good-looking she is standing next to you, she will be overshadowed." Fangfu said the truth, Qingyan inherited Lingxin's beauty, and her baby-like skin was what Fangfu envied.

"Fifth sister-in-law, why did you bring everyone to the palace, even a concubine Gege, no matter what, you should bring Fang Fujin." Qingyan said disgustedly when she heard Xiao Yanzi's voice.

"This Yan Gege is very popular with our master, so I can't say anything." Fang Fu forced a smile.

"Fifth Sister-in-law, Third Sister-in-law and the others are already here. They are chatting there. I have to go to other places to see." Qingyan and Fangfu only met each other on formal occasions. Take this opportunity to leave.

Qingyan was busy greeting the people who came, and seeing if there was anything to add. At this time, a white figure outside Lingkun Palace attracted everyone's attention. Everyone looked at me, I looked at you, and knew who was coming Who is it? Unknowingly full of question marks.

"Who is this person? She looks like a princess in her attire. I don't know which prince's princess she is." The elder brother Fujin rarely enters the palace now, and has never seen anyone coming. There are too many princesses in the capital. , she has not seen all of them.

"It's the orphan of Prince Rui, Xinyue Gege." The third elder brother Fujin met in the Imperial Garden a few days ago, and Concubine Ying took her with her. She forced a smile, she didn't think much about it at the time, she hurriedly went to the Compassion Palace to pay her respects, and left in a hurry.

"Although you want to receive filial piety for Prince Rui, it depends on what day it is today. Princess Qingyan kindly gave her a post, or she told her that it was inconvenient to come. Now that people come, they can also change into plain clothes. It's unlucky to be dressed in white."

"No, I heard that Qingyan also sent a post to Keshan, but although she is young, she is also very sensible. She said early on that it is not convenient for her to come here when she is observing filial piety." The third elder brother Fujin and the eldest elder brother Fujin were there Whispering, discussing the new moon.

"Mommy, you are an old nanny in the Palace of Compassion and Ning, why don't you persuade Xinyue Gege to come dressed in white, isn't it obviously trying to hurt our princess?" Feng Ling pulled the nanny beside Xinyue aside, Ask softly.

"Girl, you don't know. I have served the Empress Dowager for most of my life. I haven't seen Gege before. This crescent moon is really strange. I thought it would be better to have Concubine Ying take care of me, but this crescent moon faces out of the window all day long." Weeping, I don’t like to talk to Concubine Ying when she comes. Gradually, the concubine doesn’t come anymore. Today I persuaded Ge Ge not to come. I also said that Prince Keshan didn’t come. You don’t know what Ge Ge said , She said that Keshan didn't go because he was ignorant and uneducated, saying that he was just born by a concubine, and he was not qualified to congratulate the princess." The mother said that the helplessness on Xinyue's face, she also wanted to return to the charity. Ning Gong went to serve the Empress Dowager, but when she thought that the Empress Dowager asked her to monitor Xinyue so that she would not do anything that would insult the royal family, she would stay no matter what she didn't want to.

"Then why don't you let her wear it all, just something plain."

"The old slave said that she went to get a light yellow flag dress, but she came out while I was getting the clothes. This princess just lives in her own world all day long." Mammy finished. Look helpless.

"Is this Xinyue Gege specially here to touch my brow?" Qingyan looked at Xinyue without any kind of expression on her face, "Why did Huang Erniang post to this Gege?"

"If it wasn't for her living in the palace, Queen Mother would give her a post in case people would say she was biased." Yongji appeared behind Qingyan and said.

"This is the first time I've seen Xinyue Gege. I heard from Shanbao that she was so strange, but I still didn't believe it. Now seeing is believing." Lan Xin also said behind Qingyan.

"You two don't suddenly appear behind me and talk, okay, seeing her and you together is quite frightening." Qingyan glanced at Yongji to the left and Lanxin to the right and said.

Xinyue didn't know that she had become an outlier here, so she found a table outside and sat down. Originally, the two princes sitting at that table walked away to other tables. Little Yanzi saw that everyone isolated Xinyue, With great kindness, he walked over, "Seeing that you are also a character, hello, my name is Little Swallow."

"Little Yanzi, I am Xinyue Gege from Prince Rui's Mansion." Xinyue said softly.

"Why are you dressed in white, don't you know how to wear clothes of other colors?" Little Yanzi has never heard of Prince Rui. Jizhou.

"I will keep my filial piety for my Ama again."

"So you are so filial."

"Did you come from outside the palace?"

"Yes."

"Can you take me out of the palace? I want to find my Nu Dahai." What Xinyue Xin misses is her Nu Dahai. The reason why she came today is because of Nu Dahai. Will come, but she doesn't think about how a foreign minister like Nu Dahai is qualified to come here.

"Me! I'm just a little Gege in Beizi's mansion. I have to be escorted even into the palace. How can I take you out of the palace." From Xinyue's words, Xiao Yanzi thought that her mind was a little abnormal. Dahai, she heard from Yongqi that Nu Dahai is the general when the chaos in Jizhou is quelled this time, but doesn't Nu Dahai have a pair of sons and daughters?Hearing that his son is only three years younger than Yongqi, and that Xinyue is about the same age as his daughter, Little Yanzi finds it inconceivable to think about it.

"Is there no one who can help me?" Xinyue Chuchu had tears in her pitiful eyes.

"Yongqi is waiting for me there, I'll go first." Little Yanzi casually found an excuse to leave.

Cining Palace

"Your Majesty, Brother Wu has brought Yan Gege into the palace, and Xinyue Gege has also come." Although Lingxin was in the Palace of Compassion, she asked the wind chime to transmit the news of Lingkun Palace to the Palace of Compassion at any time. Well, Mother Rong got the news from Caiyi and reported it to Lingxin as soon as possible.

"Yongqi, I see that this year has changed for the better, and the relationship with Fangfu is also good. I didn't expect that she was still so out of tune. She brought all kinds of cats and dogs to the palace." The queen mother said first when she heard Rong Rong's words, "You You should bring Yongyun and Hexuan, what if that little swallow goes crazy and hurts Aijia's baby?"

"Emperor Niang, they have a nanny to take care of them, they will be fine." Lingxin peeled an apple and handed it to the Queen Mother.

"It's because Ai's family is too worried, so why is the new moon here?" The queen mother took the apple handed over by Lingxin. This daughter-in-law is more considerate to herself than Xiaoxian before. She is indeed her sister's niece. This sister said Naturally, it was the Yuan empress of Yongzheng.

"It was the daughter-in-law who sent the post to her, even Keshan. They live in the palace now. How many pairs of eyes are watching how we treat the loyal orphans? How do people outside know how Prince Rui is? We must treat them equally."

"You always think so thoroughly."

"But, empress, you don't know what this princess is wearing. Isn't it a bad luck for the princess to be dressed in white?" Rong Rong said with a frown.

"White clothes, what does the crescent moon mean? Are you at Curse Ai's house?" The queen mother was so angry that she slapped the table when she heard the white clothes.

Although Xinyue wants to keep filial piety, she is in the palace now, she can do this in her own room, and she can also choose some plain clothes when she goes out for a walk. She is dressed in white, which is only for funerals in the palace.

"Emperor Niang, calm down, there is no need to hurt your phoenix body for the sake of the new moon." Lingxin stroked Empress Dowager Shun's back.

"When she finishes her filial piety, she will find someone to marry her. She wants to marry that Nu Dahai, so she will be pointed out to Nu Dahai's son."

"Emperor Niang, isn't this very good?" Lingxin thought that if Yanji had such a daughter-in-law, she would be pissed off, and suddenly she had a brain turn. Didn't Nu Dahai have a younger brother? Xinyue's age is opposite, "Emperor Niang, you also know that Mrs. Nudahai is the cousin of the daughter-in-law. How can the daughter-in-law marry her to Jiyuan to deal with Yanji? In the family, even Nu Dahai has brothers, and my daughter-in-law heard from Yan Ji that Nu Dahai has a younger brother, how dare you say that Nu Dahai seduces his nephew's daughter-in-law."

"Yanji Ai's family met before, she is a steady person, anyway, Ai's family only wants Xinyue to leave the palace quickly, and marry anyone." The queen mother was not in the mood to chat with Lingxin, so she went to the house with her hand Go to the bedroom.

Lingxin wanted to serve her, but was dismissed by the Queen Mother, and she couldn't think about going back to Lingkun Palace, so she came to Qianqing Palace.

"Queen master, why are you here?" Gao Wuyong asked in surprise when he saw that the queen who had never been to Qianqing Palace came.

"Nothing? Is the emperor receiving ministers?"

"The ministers have left early, the emperor is in there to approve the memorial, that's it." Gao Wuyong didn't know what to say, the emperor didn't often call his concubines to the Qing Palace, but today he invited his concubines, so coincidentally the empress also came , Gao Wuyong still knows about the matter between the Queen and Concubine Jin.

Lingxin only heard the first half of the passage and asked Rong Rong to wait outside. She entered the Qianqing Palace by herself, and when she pushed the door of the palace, it was empty inside, only a few lights shining on the empty main hall.

"Your Majesty, come to this slave." A woman's laughter came from the side hall.

Lingxin knew that Qianlong would occasionally recruit some concubines to serve in the Qianqing Palace, but she was just rubbing ink beside her, she didn't expect this scene to happen.

"When I catch you, let's see how I teach you."

He also played hide-and-seek, which he had never played with himself, so a wife is not as good as a concubine.

Lingxin didn't want to continue to listen to Qianlong and other women's playful laughter, and left with a cold face, "Who is the emperor recruiting here today?"

"It's Empress Jin." Gao Wuyong said bravely.

Lingxin didn't say anything, and left with a look of anger.
