Today is the day when Ming Zhen'er, the legitimate daughter of Duke Shou's palace, and Li Roufu, the legitimate daughter of Prince Kang's palace, enter the palace. After Yifang ordered the manager of the House of Internal Affairs to pack up Fanghua Garden and prepare to welcome the two beauties to live there, he sat in the palace and embroidered the day before.
She picked up the half-filled sachet and prepared to finish it in the next few days. In another early winter season, she would give Xia Jie her share of her heart.
"Your Majesty, Madam Huagui and Madam Xiaoyi are here to pay their respects to you."
Yi Fang raised his eyes, with joy flashing in his eyes.
These days, the relationship between Ruihe and Dou Zunian has become much more relaxed. Yifang feels relieved, but then he thinks about Ruihe and Yuerong being pregnant and often running to the palace. It is inevitable that Yifang will have another problem.
Feeling a little worried, she held Cui'er's hand, stood up hurriedly, and walked outside. As she walked, she complained: "When it's so cold, why did the two of them come into the palace to ask for greetings? Brother and Zu An don't know.
Stop it."
Cui'er knew that Yifang's complaints were just casual remarks, she pursed her lips and smiled, and did not answer Yifang's words.
When they arrived at the side hall outside, they saw that Rui and Yu Yuerong were both wearing thick clothes. Yi Fanglai nodded with satisfaction and sat down at the top. Seeing that they wanted to salute again, he hurriedly said: "No need to be more polite. You are pregnant now."
Here is my little nephew."
Ruihe and Yuerong both looked at each other and smiled when they heard this, but when they thought about the purpose of entering the palace today, they couldn't laugh anymore.
Yi Fang glanced at the expressions of the two of them and knew that they must have something to say. They were not entering the palace just to say hello as usual. Thinking of what day it was, Yi Fang smiled knowingly and lightly traced his lips.
.
"Are you worried about the two nobles who will enter the palace today?"
Seeing Yifang speaking without hesitation, Yuerong immediately frowned and said worriedly: "Mother, that Zhen'er and Li Roufu are not good people, and the emperor is not willing to enter the show girl again, and will even reject them from future drafts.
Well, if you don’t want them to enter the palace, you can just tell the emperor, why are you still..."
"Why did you let them in and give a title to a noble person?" Yi Fang pursed his lips leisurely and smiled at Yuerong's annoyance. Perhaps he was worried about the loss of the Dou family's reputation after she fell out of favor.
But there was also concern for her, and she accepted this love, and a deep warmth arose in her heart.
Yuerong bit her lip and glanced at Ruihe. Seeing that Ruihe didn't mean to accuse her, she nodded bravely.
Yi Fang smiled, looked at Yuerong, and asked with a slight smile: "Do you know how people outside the palace talk about me now?"
Yi Fang spoke softly, her tone was gentle, and she jumped like a musical note. But what she said made Rui and Yu Yuerong's faces stiffen instantly. They looked at Yi Fang, speechless for a long time, not knowing how to answer this.
Do you want to tell the empress that people outside the palace are now privately saying that she is a witch concubine who is causing harm to the country?
Seeing that even Yuerong, who was used to being straightforward, had a troubled look, Yifang understood in her heart. It was precisely because of this understanding that she persuaded Xia Jie to accept the two noble ladies who entered the palace according to the old practice.
Xia Jie was the only one who favored her, so when the facts were in an uproar between the government and the public, they could only accept it, but that was because of Xia Jie's power as the emperor, not because of his heart's admiration.
After that, Xia Jie announced the cancellation of the annual draft, and she was satisfied. However, the discussions and remonstrances from the government and the public became more and more constant. She had laughed off the hostility of these people, but now, she couldn't.
No matter what Bi Ruge's thoughts are, it is a fact that Bi Ruge is pregnant. Then she will prepare to give birth to another child for Xia Jie. Her child will have a better way after birth.
Go, you must not have a witchy concubine whom all the courtiers despise as your mother.
Therefore, no matter how small the effect of bringing the two noble ladies into the palace is, it can at least alleviate the rumors that are rampant outside to a certain extent. At least, it can stop some people's mouths openly.
Who said that enchanting concubines are bringing harm to the country? New people are still entering the palace. Concubines Shu and Concubine Zhen's sisters have even committed crimes and become mortal enemies with Concubine Yi.
What can I say with my mouth.
As for after entering the palace, whether the two noble ladies, the so-called beauties chosen from a thousand, can be favored, or whether they will always be lonely and lonely, or whether they will make mistakes in the palace and be demoted from the palace, that is all.
It was her fault.
Although some people still won't be convinced by doing this, they can no longer find fault with her. She now has confidence in Xia Jie and herself, so why can't she do such a thing and kill two birds with one stone?
She, Dou Yifang, didn't take it seriously.
If just two beauties could destroy Xia Jie's deep love for her, how could she have reached this point!
A sharp light flashed in Yifang's eyes, which was a strong desire to control the world. Ruihe looked at the dazzling light on Yifang's face, sighed secretly, and suddenly understood what Yifang meant.
Today's Concubine Yi is becoming more and more similar to the emperor. It seems that it is not Concubine Yi who should be worried, but the two people Ming Zhen'er and Li Roufu who came with the hope of winning.
She has also seen Ming Zhen'er and Li Roufu. Although they are extremely beautiful, there are so many beauties in the palace. Has the current emperor ever treated other women like Concubine Yi?
However, Duke Shou's Palace and Prince Kang's Palace have reached the end of their road, and they are at their wits' end. If they had not had to send their daughter to the palace to win once, they would not want to offend the powerful Concubine Yi now.
Rui He had thousands of thoughts running through his mind. He held his slightly swollen belly and said, "The empress is very resourceful. It is my wife and others who are stupid."
Yuerong is not a stupid person. When Yifang asked questions, he thought of Yifang's intention, flattened his mouth, and sat silently.
Seeing her like that, Yifang chuckled, and then saw Ruihe looking thoughtful. He knew that Ruihe must have other things, so he asked, "But are there other things?"
Ruihe was startled by Yifang's question. She thought for a moment that she would not offend Yifang, so she tried to say: "As for my mother-in-law, I came back to the Duke's Mansion of Shu State yesterday. My mother-in-law,
I mentioned something to my wife and wanted to ask for your grace."
The light in Yifang's eyes shone brightly, but when she saw Ruihe's cautious look, it almost disappeared. She picked up the tea next to her, took a sip, and then said slowly: "Tell me and listen."
Ruihe made sure that Yifang was not angry, and then said: "My maternal grandfather's family has a cousin who is twenty-five years old. My cousin's sister-in-law is new this year. My aunt wants to marry my seventeenth sister to fill the house for my cousin. I don't know.
What does your Majesty mean?"
Yifang's expression was calm, he lowered his eyes and thought for a while, then looked up at Ruihe with a smile, and said softly: "Sister Seventeen, she is a concubine."
Four updates, there are two more to come, I’ll keep working hard!
