Twenty-two nodded lightly.

"...The new queen has just been registered, and no matter how much money she has now, it is not enough to reward people."

She herself came from that time, and she knows best how many gifts a new queen has to prepare in her hand during the year of official canonization.

This is the dignity of the central palace. After all, there is no reason for the clan ministers and vassal states to donate things and not reward them in return.

Because Qianlong and the Emperor were there, she entered the palace early, so she saved a lot of wealth. Moreover, although her family was originally poor, after she entered the palace, her mother and brothers also got errands.

The situation at home is getting better, and I can help her a little bit.

In addition, because she has lived a life of poverty since she was a child, she has long developed the habit of living a careful life. Moreover, she is not picky about food and clothing, so she spends her money in those years and birthdays.

All the rewards were saved and not much was spent.

Even so, it was really hard to do that that first year.

As for the new queen, she originally loved to dress up. She has always worn the freshest and most beautiful clothes in the years since she entered the palace. Otherwise, she would not even dare to think about the birthday gift for Emperor Qianlong's 800,000th birthday. She also

He is also a person who likes to show off, so what he gives to others must be good and must be worth it.

Moreover, the imperial court is now suffering from internal and external troubles. To assess the Zhanggeer Rebellion in the Western Regions, the imperial court has spent tens of millions of dollars on military expenditures, and there are also battles with the British... The imperial court's expenditures have long been inferior to those of Qianlong and Jiaqing.

time.

Min Ning himself had to cut down on expenses, so even if Min Ning favored the Niu Hulu family, the family's wealth was still there, so it is conceivable that the Niu Hulu family would not be able to save much.

However, her mother's family still failed to live up to expectations. Minning hated her brother, which meant that her brother could not even get the job of Minister of Internal Affairs... Her mother's family was already poor, and they could not even get the job that the Queen's mother's family should have.

If you get it, it won't be of any help to her.

It is not difficult to imagine how tight the new queen's money is.

Such a situation can be easily imagined even in the Shoukang Palace, which is far away from the Sixth Palace of the East and West, let alone the heads of the inner court of the Sixth Palace of the East and West? Who still doesn’t understand what the new empress lacks most right now?

, and how to please the new mistress.

Moreover, Liu Guan's daughter has been relying on the new queen since she entered the palace. She herself has been reduced to dust. How can she not risk everything and make a last ditch effort at any cost?

Coincidentally, Liu Guan's daughter's family happened to be quite wealthy because she had been in charge of the salt administration in the richest place in Jiangnan.

This must be a tacit understanding and an instant hit-off.

Sure enough, less than a month later, in March, deputy leader Luan Yiwei surrendered and had accepted property from Liu Guan's mother-in-law's family. The reason Liu Guan's mother-in-law gave him the property was because Liu Guan's mother-in-law sent eunuchs home to ask for things.

When you come back and enter the palace, you can ask them to make it easier and turn a blind eye to the interrogation.

Minning was furious and sent the minister of the Ministry of Internal Affairs to severely interrogate the eunuch under Liu Guan's daughter's name. The eunuch argued, "Since February 14, no one from Liu Guan's family has brought me a message, and they have not asked me to go."

Want something."

It seems to be a denial, but it is almost confirmed that Liu Guan's daughter did often ask for things from her mother's family before she was abdicated on February 14. That Minning punished Liu Guan's daughter, and even the new queen's protection

Concealment is already irrefutable.

The new queen has been in the palace for more than ten years and has always been a favorite. No one in the harem is her opponent. She even defeated important court officials like Ying He, but she never expected that one day she would fall for Liu Guannu.

I couldn't even climb out of the small pit.

Since then, Minning's love for her has obviously weakened.

Affected by her, even Xi En's position in Minning's heart was affected.

Queen Zhongcuigong has won the position of the middle palace, but may face the situation of losing the heart of the emperor - under such circumstances, how can she not be especially wary of Concubine Jing and the Sixth Prince?

Concubine Jing's mother's family background was originally better than hers. Since she could become a queen, there was nothing wrong for Concubine Jing. Also, although her fourth elder brother was the eldest son of the emperor, he had some health problems due to premature birth.

Although he is weak, the sixth elder brother has a smart mind and a strong body.

Now that Concubine Jing and Sixth Prince are getting closer and closer to Shoukang Palace again, how can she still sit back and watch!

After thinking for a long time, she came up with a good idea that killed three birds with one stone.

Since the fifth elder brother and the sixth elder brother always go to Shoukang Palace to pay their respects, and the empress dowager often stays with them to have meals... then what if the sixth elder brother eats something unclean in Shoukang Palace——

Everyone in the world would say that it was because the Empress Dowager protected Xianggui, a member of the Hongyi family of the Niu Hulu clan, that she wanted to help the fifth elder brother, but harmed the sixth elder brother.

In order to make her idea more flawless, she used her usual scheming skills again and asked her fourth elder brother, Jian Tian'er, to target the fifth elder brother and the sixth elder brother, as long as the two of them went to Shoukang Palace.

, and asked the fourth elder brother to follow him.

If the sixth elder brother was the only one who ate something bad, it would still be a little inappropriate; if her fourth elder brother also ate something bad, then the plan would be complete and no one would think it was her behind the scenes.

What she didn't expect was that the plan she thought was well-arranged was actually as transparent as it was in Twenty-Twenty's eyes.

What she has done over the years has long been in the hands of the Empress Dowager. Over the years, Twenty-Twenty has not punished her, just because this is Minning's housework, and Twenty-Twenty doesn't want to interfere too much.

, to prevent the entanglement from getting deeper; secondly, it was also because the new queen had only hurt her own fourth brother, and had not hurt the prince next to her.

But this doesn't mean that Twenty-Twenty didn't set up defenses for her.

In fact, Shoukang Palace had already set up an iron wall against her, but she never knew it.

The people she sent to the dining room of Shoukang Palace reported happily when they came back, saying that the errand was done extremely smoothly. Because even though the people in the dining room of Shoukang Palace were under the name of the Empress Dowager, they all knew the Empress Dowager.

It was just a decoration, and she was not the emperor's real mother, so they had long wanted to find an opportunity to serve the queen, the real master of the harem.

They all said that they had waited for this opportunity.

Fortunately, very fortunately.

The new queen smiled contentedly, "After all, they are all old people in the palace, and they still have good taste."

How did she think that it was these people who completely crushed her spring and autumn dream!

They really have good taste, because they know how to read people best during these years in the palace.
