The next day he returned to the palace, and the news that Huanbi married the Prince of Qinghe was a concubine, which was alarmed by the six palaces. The palace maids in the city were envious of the news. The maids in the city have always given the princes as concubines. No one has ever been a concubine. Even the concubines of the palace envied Huanbi, and they all talked about the favor of the concubine. The emperor even looked at her with different eyes.

Xuanqing was alone for many years, but at this time the Empress Dowager learned that she was finally going to take a concubine. Although she was just a concubine, she also ordered the Interior Office to have a good time. Just when the Interior Office was busy, something happened.

A few years ago, the Empress Dowager wanted to marry Xuanqing, and she loved You Jingxian, the lady of the Duke of Pei. There was a reason for this, because the Duke of Pei was of equal status and had no real power, and because You Jingxian had met Xuanqing once since childhood and fell in love with her for a long time. However, Xuanqing never agreed, but You Jingxian was infatuated and refused to marry again. After a while, she delayed becoming an unmarried old woman.

Now that Xuanqing wants to marry Huanbi, everyone knows that the Duke of Pei is also heard of. You Jingxian touched the love intestines, and was heartbroken due to pain. The Duke of Pei is eager to love his daughter and does not care about his face. He made three memorials to pay tribute to the Queen Mother and Xuan Ling, begging Tien Nian's daughter to be infatuated and would rather her daughter serve as the concubine and serve the King of Qinghe, so that he would not lose his beloved daughter when he was old.

This is a bit tricky. The two elders of Duke Pei made a lot of efforts to Xuan Ling ascend the throne. Although he has no real power in his hands, he is a first-class Duke and Marquis' Mansion, which is highly respected. He is so humble and loves his daughter, even the Empress Dowager can't help but be moved.

On this day, the Empress Dowager was summoning Huanbi to discuss his appearance, but she was not unhappy. When she saw me and Xuanling, she couldn't help but mention this matter and said to Huanbi: "You have been in love with the prince for a long time, but the Ai family is not convenient to talk to you. But the Miss You family was attracted by the Ai family and delayed the Six Kings for many years. I think there is no way out." She stopped, "According to the You family's identity, how could his daughter be a concubine? Back then, the Ai family and the emperor both wanted her to be the Sixth Prince's Consort."

Xuan Ling looked at me and smiled and said to the Empress Dowager: "Duke Pei himself said he was willing to serve his concubines, not to mention that Lao Liu liked Huanbi, and this concubine... I'm afraid Lao Liu himself would not."

The Empress Dowager sighed, "The Ai family is not a fool, how can you not know? It's just that you have been in love with the Six Kings for a long time. Cheng Yaojin is not happy about it, let alone being the official concubine. But if you don't agree, the face of the Duke of Pei's mansion over there cannot be too much. People have been so humble, and they must also pity Jingxian's infatuation. After thinking about it, the Ai family can only make her sit on an equal footing with you, which is not a pity for you." The Empress Dowager looked at Huanbi, "Now the Ai family only sees your meaning. If you don't agree, the three of them will live together in the future, and it will be uncomfortable if they look up and see them."

Huanbi looked at me, lowered her head and bit her lips for a moment, and smiled calmly, "Miss You is infatuated with me, and even the Buddha is sympathetic to life on earth, how could I watch and refuse to agree? The Empress Dowager Xu and Miss You are on an equal footing, which is extremely kind. I will definitely live in harmony with Miss You in the future and will not make the Six Kings upset."

The Empress Dowager looked at her and smiled, "Women's virtue is the most important virtue of a woman. If you can be so generous, the Ai family will feel at ease."

Huanbi smiled as she said, pursing her lips tightly.

Xuanqing was naturally very reluctant to do this incident, but Xuanling asked the King of Qishan to take him to visit You Jingxian. He couldn't bear it. Finally, Xuanling advised, "If you really don't like her, just take it at home. Why bother to get tired of her life? If Duke Pei feels resentful about this matter, he will not be at ease with the government." After all, he even started to do the matter of Ce You Jingxian as his concubine, but Xuanqing became more and more haggard and unhappy.

Soon, Xuanqing asked for an order not to marry another for life, and decided to ask Huanbi to enter the mansion to take charge of the family affairs, so the ceremony of accepting concubines should be strong and heavy. Although this also means You Jingxian, everyone says that Xuanqing has a deep affection for Huanbi, and the two of them are in love with each other, but it is just a good deal for You Jingxian.

The prince’s etiquette for taking concubines was very complicated, not to mention that the concubine ceremony was very grand, including the six rituals of receiving lottery tickets, asking for titles, asking for titles, asking for envoys, asking for appointments, and welcoming the bride. I settled down and prepared everything for Huanbi, but when I was asked for title, I hesitated. Huanbi’s biological mother was originally a woman who was a barbarian. After his father entered the Great Zhou Dynasty as an official for several years, he became a traitor and became a criminal minister of great rebellion. The Longqing Dynasty strictly ordered that the family members of the crime of great rebellion be not be accepted as wives and concubines, and his mother’s identity could not be made public. Therefore, Huanbi reported to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to record the jade certificate. I only said that I remember my mother's name. Yuzhe didn't remember her biological mother's death early, so she got through it. Because Huanbi is only one year younger than me and older than Yuyao, she is ranked as the second daughter of Zhen. I wrote a letter from my family to invite my parents to Beijing to host the wedding ceremony, and another wrote a letter to bring Huanbi into the family tree. Her mother's tablet into the ancestral hall was explained in detail with my father. I also learned from "Yu" and "Nurse" according to our sister ranking, and selected several names for her, Yuru, Yushan, Yujiao, Yujing, Yuwu. Selected, Huanbi does not like the word "ru" hidden in the origin of her mother, wife Ru, and she likes the word "Shan" with the meaning of "Shan" that means "later late, the latter is blessed". Unexpectedly, after reporting to the Ministry of Rites, the Minister of Rites said that the daughter of the Ministry of Rites is not from the family, and there must be differences between the inside and outside, so she can only rank the word "Yu". As soon as I told Huanbi, I remembered that she had hidden her identity for many years, so I made the name "Yu Yin". Although Huanbi was a little unhappy about this, she finally fulfilled her wish for many years and got the ritual of Xuanqing. The meeting was a long-cherished wish, and I was very happy. In a hurry, I gave Yu Yao the dowry I prepared for the past year to Yu Yan, and asked Lu Zhaorong to take charge of the marriage. After the son was recovered, he went to the head of the mansion with Yu Yin. He also selected six capable and smart maids from the Interior Office to marry him. He arranged the wedding ceremony of the lady in the boudoir. He would never let Huanbi, who had always been strong, feel lost in the Mansion of the Duke of Pei, and would be humble in the future. In this way, he just waited for his parents to return to Beijing and Huanbi would leave the house on the fourth day of the June 1st.

The crescent moon is turning thin, it is the third day of the sixth month. My father and mother had arrived in Beijing four days ago to meet me. After many years of separation, my father and mother had more white hair. The crying of each other could not wash away the grievances and separations for many years, and my brother's illness made my parents even more sad. Fortunately, my parents' bodies were still healthy and my brother's body improved slightly, so I could comfort me a little. The original mansion of Zhen Mansion, Di Xuanling, had already asked someone to renovate it early in the morning, so my parents could stay temporarily, and wait for Huanbi Jiali to return to Shuzhong.

Dad said in tears: "I finally got through after so many years. My family was defeated back then, so Dad was afraid that he would implicate you."

She put on her clothes and bowed, "Zhen Yuyin bid farewell to Concubine Shu."

I hurriedly called Jinxi, "Helping Miss II." I sincerely praised, "It's very beautiful and beautiful."

She was shy, "Thank you for making arrangements for me," she sat upright, and she had the temperament of entering the royal palace. The night when she opened the hall door was as usual, the dark night sky was as bright as a new moon, and the purple city was full of lights and silk colors to welcome the happy event. From a distance, it looked like the stars in the sky were falling all over the sky. This lively thing made the moon appear silent.

I slowly told her one sentence, "I will be a housewife in this house. The prince has no official concubine, but only You Jingxian is on par with you. She is sick and has a great family. She has no temper and does not know whether it is good or not. Don't be too stubborn in everything, and don't be arrogant to compete with her. Live a safe life. Fortunately, the prince just pity her and was half-forced and half-persuaded by the emperor. You don't need to worry. The prince praised you and said that everything is up to you. You should handle everything from leniency and strictness, and you must be safe. You are the second lady of Zhen's house. Don't belittle yourself, and don't think that everything is worse than You."

She listened carefully. After a long time, her eyes stumbled on me and said softly: "Sister, I'm sorry."

Wan and I smiled like the breeze that swept across the lake, "How can we say such things? Only when you are married can your parents return to Beijing. In the future, the lintel of Zhen's mansion will have half of your responsibility."

She raised her eyes and depicted the long eyelashes like butterfly wings with wet water vapor. "Sister, this should be your seat, I took yours."

I stood up, picked up the cherry red Jiuluan Zhaiyi, and said gently: "My position is the emperor's concubine. Have you ever taken possession of me? Tomorrow will be the bride of the Six Kings. It's time to be happy, don't be too careful."

"Sister..." She was almost in tears and reached out to hold my hand, "I know you feel uncomfortable."

"Silly sister," I held her shoulders, frowned and made my palms feel a little numb. I laughed hard, "I said, I have lost my heart since the day I returned to the palace. So, I am not sad." I wiped away her tears, "How can the bride cry happily?"

She raised her head, hesitated for a moment, and asked softly, "Sister, have you ever regretted it? If I had waited for a few more months back then, maybe the prince would have come back. Then I would not be the one who married the prince today."

The night was lonely and drooping, the wind blew across the lotus pond, and the refreshing fragrance of water leaves and duckweed slowly came into the hall. "Do you regret it? Chang'e should regret stealing the elixir, and the blue sea and blue sky are heart every night. I am not Chang'e, and there is nothing to regret. The road is chosen by myself, so there is no room for turning back. I can't see what happens in the future, so I can only care about the people in front of me and what happens in front of me. Regret is useless, but it affects the mood of walking. Moreover, it is too difficult to survive in this palace. I have no time or the heart to regret it." I answered quietly, looking at her, "Yuyin, the road ahead is what you choose today, and I also hope that you will walk without looking back and never regret it."

She nodded, her face feeling a little sad because of anxiety, "Maybe the prince doesn't like this."

"You fulfilled your wish for many years. The prince really liked his woman to take care of him. I fulfilled the promise I made to find a good home for you, and I also fulfilled all kinds of suspicions that I had known. And you and the prince were bleeding. This is the best ending." I stopped and said in a gentle voice, "If he really never married for life, it would be of no benefit to anyone."

She nodded vigorously, "I know."

The moonlight fell gently on my body like a stream of wine, and the joyful cherry red clothes were also outlined with a light green halo, hazy, like a dream that was awakened halfway through. The breeze lingers, and the skirt is full of layers. Yu Yin holds my clothes and said softly: "Sister, I did a lot of wrong things in the past. Don't you blame me?"

"How could it be?" I looked at her with a smile, and there was a soft family affection growing in my heart. "You are my real sister. You have let you hide your identity as a slave and a servant for many years. My father and I are sorry for you."

She shook her head, "I dare not think so. Actually... actually... my father treats me well in private, and my mother has never treated me badly." She shook her head vigorously and said uneasy, "I am very happy that I can be with the prince. But I am also very scared, I am not afraid of You Jingxian, I am just afraid that I can't be a concubine, I am afraid that he hates me..." She shook my hand, "Sister, the prince is actually only you in his heart, I don't know how to be his concubine!"

The shadows of the trees on the window screen are messy, like bushes of ink and water branches blooming all over the sky. In the distance, unknown insects heard a burst of "hissing" sounds. The sound was small and dense, and it was lively, like light rain, and like countless spring silkworms lying on their hearts and slowly eroding.

"I don't know." My voice was cold and wet, "You know the best of what you want. If you just want to be by his side, stay with him quietly; if you want his heart, try your best to fight for it. No matter which one, you have a lifetime of time to accompany him to do it. For you, I am an outsider. The couple in the Qinghe Prince's Mansion are you and the prince, so what you want to do depends on you."
