Outsiders think she is favored and everything is good, but she is the only one who knows that she is walking on thin ice.
She and the emperor truly loved each other, but because neither of them could have children and she was a woman from another country, she had to be more cautious.
If she cannot be the queen, the emperor will not establish a queen. What's more, she will be the only one in the harem despite everyone's opinions.
She was happy, grateful, and cherished it all the more.
She wanted to do something for the emperor and Dachu, but she didn't want her maid who had grown up with her to hold her back while she was working hard.
It is said that what kind of master there is, there is what kind of girl. Many times, Jinyan's words and deeds represent her and her face.
If you are careful with your words, it will mean that she is a talkative woman, or that she cannot even discipline her servants well, etc.
She had given Jinyan the opportunity, but she didn't realize it. Today, in front of her, he was discussing the rights and wrongs of a dignified Madam Hou, which was really hateful.
Now she can give a warning, but if Jinyan doesn't cherish it, then don't blame her for being a cruel master.
When Jin Yan heard Yang Lulan's words and saw that her eyes had lost all warmth, her whole body trembled involuntarily.
She knew that the empress was afraid that she would give up on her.
Thinking of this, she raised her head and looked at Yang Lulan in fear, begging for mercy again and again: "Empress, I know my mistake, I will definitely change it, I will definitely change it!"
After all, Yang Lulan was still soft-hearted. Seeing that Jin Yan had not made any big mistakes, she looked at her deeply.
"I would like to say, you are smart, otherwise I would not take you with me. Don't let me down. I promise you that if you reach the age where you can leave the palace, and you want to marry someone, as long as you leave the palace,
If you have someone you like and the other person is also interested in you, I will make the decision to marry you when the time comes. If you want to return to Hongwu Kingdom, I will also ensure that you have a worry-free life in the future. If you don't want to, then you can stay in this palace.
She is also a first-class aunt beside her, and she still has dignity."
When Yang Lulan said this, she paused and changed her tone: "But now you are so embarrassed to disappoint me! I and you are from the Hongwu Kingdom. Even though I have a distinguished status now, how many eyes do I have in the entire Da Chu?"
Staring at me, you should know. You are from me, and every move you make is in the eyes of everyone. What you are doing now is really a slap in my face. Now everyone in the palace, big and small, is fawning over me.
You, flattering you, do you feel proud?"
Jin Yan was originally very moved when she heard Yang Lulan's previous words, but before she could rejoice, what she said next sent her into an ice cellar.
It was obvious that the room was very warm, and the sun was shining warmly on her body, but she felt cold from the bottom of her heart, so cold that she couldn't stop shivering.
"Your Majesty, please calm down. I don't know what's going on. Please forgive me. I will definitely change my past and will never disappoint you."
As Jinyan said this, he was afraid that Yang Lulan would not believe it, so he promised: "If I can't do it, I can send you away at any time. I won't say anything."
"Okay, this is what you said, don't forget it! You and I have been my master and servant for more than ten years, and if you make another mistake, don't blame me for being cruel."
"You can swear that if you make a mistake, you will be punished by your Majesty without any hesitation, and you will not feel any resentment."
"Get up!"
"Thank you, ma'am!"
Jinyan responded, stood up and stood respectfully behind Yang Lulan.yyls
"A little later, you go out of the palace and go to Princess Ruyi's Mansion in person to see how the quality of the wolfberry is, but it is comparable to the ones sent by Sister Shiqing. Now that the plum blossoms are in bloom, you can draw up a list and sincerely invite
The female relatives of officials of the fourth rank and above in the capital enter the palace to enjoy the plum blossoms. I leave this matter to you, can you do it?"
Jinyan didn't expect that his empress would leave such a big thing to him after forgiving him, and for a while he didn't know what to do.
The empress has never taken the initiative to hold any banquets or gatherings, whether in the Hongwu Kingdom or in the harem of Da Chu.
She has never had these experiences. If she agrees to this, it will be a mess later...
Thinking of what she had just said in front of the empress, she took a deep breath and said bravely: "Empress, I have never done this before, and maybe I am not familiar with it. I wonder if I can ask a few people who are familiar with this to help me?"
Yang Lulan was satisfied when she saw that she didn't directly deny it, nor did she respond with any big words.
Such kind words allowed her to see the person she was when she was in Hongwu Kingdom.
"Okay, later when I go to pay my respects to my mother, I will ask her to give two nuns to help you. Okay, you go to the princess's mansion first. If the quality of the wolfberry seeds is good, you can bring some first
Come back. Just put the rest there and try to sell some before the end of the year."
Yang Lulan had already thought about it. In the name of plum appreciation, she would use wolfberry to make tea and use it in meals. Then she asked Empress Dowager Jiang to cooperate and promote wolfberry.
Since there are only two female relatives in the harem, she and the Queen Mother, and they admire wolfberry, they don't believe that those female relatives bought it just to curry favor with them.
Anyway, this thing is good, poetry is used, the emperor, she and the queen mother are also using it, and it is not harmful to people, so it doesn't matter if everyone pays for it.
The money earned can also benefit the people. It can be said to be a win-win situation.
No, it should be a three-win, or a four-win.
As long as the sales are good, Tuofeng Town and even Antelope City will definitely continue to increase planting. And when the people see the money and hope, they will probably plant more without anyone taking the lead. This will also prevent desertification.
Besides, after Luo Jiaocheng left the palace, she did not go directly to the Princess's Mansion, nor did she return to the Zhenguo Marquis' Mansion, but went straight to the Bai Mansion.
She would feel uneasy if she didn't explain the matter about Bai Guli clearly.
As for Mr. Hou, I think he will understand her!
When Luo Jiaocheng arrived at Bai Mansion, she saw that Bai Yifeng, who usually never returned home at this time, came back today for the rare occasion.
In the hall, Bai Guli stood there with a stubborn look on his face, while Bai Yifeng, Mrs. Bai and even Mr. Liu's expressions were a little ugly.
"Jiaochao has met Uncle Feng, met..."
Although Luo Jiaocheng felt that the situation was a little different from what she expected, she still had to bite the bullet and say hello first.
But before she could finish her words, Mrs. Bai interrupted her: "Xiao Chao'er, there is no need to be polite. Let's talk about Gu Li's plan to marry that Tang Ming as his stepmother. What's going on?
Something happened."
Luo Jiaocheng's eyes narrowed when he heard this, and then he glared at Bai Guli with dissatisfaction.
After Bai Guli lowered her head and said nothing, she took a deep breath and said with a guilty look on her face: "It's all Jiaochao's fault. If Jiaochao hadn't gone to Tuofeng Town in the first place, this wouldn't have happened.
When Xian Tou Jiao Ai and Gu Li first arrived in Tuofeng Town, Gu Li saw a little girl on the street and thought she was very pitiful, so he took her back to the Yan Mansion. Later, he found out that the little girl was from Tuofeng Town...
"
Because the matter concerned her daughter, Ms. Liu was angry and anxious when she saw Bai Guli failing to live up to her expectations. She was not in the mood to listen to Luo Jiaocheng's long speech, so she said: "Jiaochao, let's get to the point. What is the relationship between Guli and Tang Ming?"
Is there a beginning and a tail? Why do you say you want to be his stepmother? What's going on?"
When Bai Guli heard that her mother actually asked her in front of her grandparents if she and her husband were related, she yelled angrily: "Mom, what are you talking about!"
"Shut up, you have no place to speak here!"
Mrs. Liu was so angry that if her parents-in-law hadn't been there, she would have beaten her directly.
She has always felt that she was indebted to Gu Li, and he was tolerant of her delay in getting married after her appearance improved.
Who would have thought that she would actually say that she wanted to be someone's stepmother, and that she was a person from a certain town who only had the reputation of being a civil servant.
It really pissed her off!
She herself was not from a high family background, and she did not have a strong sense of family. Logically speaking, Tang Ming was a civil servant, so it was okay to marry him if her grain was low.
But he is actually a widower with a daughter. What would it be like to marry Gu Li?
Oh, she is the granddaughter of a first-grade official, and she wants to be a stepmother and a stepmother?
In the future, when we burn incense during festivals and festivals, will we still call our deceased first wife sister?
Will the children I give birth to be inferior to that little girl now?
The mother-in-law said that according to the laws of Dachu, filling in a house does not even qualify you to enter the family tree, and you cannot enter the ancestral grave after death.
No, this is absolutely impossible!
Even if he married his grain to an ordinary farmer, he would never marry that Tang Ming. Don't even think about it.
As soon as Luo Jiaocheng saw this posture, she knew that if she didn't explain the matter clearly today, there would be grudges between two or three houses in the future, and it would be unclear.
Thinking of this, she said: "It doesn't matter. Guli is just more concerned about the little baby. Speaking of which, I also brought her back because I noticed Guli's thoughts."
Mrs. Liu breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this, and then regardless of the occasion, she reached out and slapped the white grains angrily: "What are you thinking in your head, you damn girl? If you don't want to marry someone who is innocent, why do you have to rush to become a stepmother? You
Shameless, our White House still needs shame. Why don’t you think about your future children and let them always be inferior to others? I, the legitimate daughter of the White House, will not have your name on the family tree after you get married. A hundred years later, your ancestral graves will be all over.
Can not enter……"
The more Ms. Liu talked, the angrier she became, and the more force she used to strike.
Bai Guli just stood there and let her hit him, not dodging or dodging, but just retorted: "Why am I so shameless? How many stepmothers are there in this world? Did I steal or rob you before you get the black mark on your face?"
I don’t want to get married, but if you say, I want to get married, you still say, what do you want from me? As for the children in the future, there will be no children at all. I don’t want to have children, and I don’t want to have children..."
As soon as Bai Guli said these words, even Bai Yifeng became angry.
His face darkened, and he reached out and patted the table: "What nonsense are you talking about! What do you mean you won't have a baby, don't want to have a baby, don't want to have a baby? If that's the case, what will your family do? You also said that the Tang family only has one daughter.
, if you want to marry and not have any children, will the Tang family be extinct? Is this what our White House taught you?"
Bai Guli has always been afraid of her grandfather. When her grandfather spoke, she bowed her head and remained silent again.
"say!"
Seeing this, Bai Yifeng felt an unknown fire in his heart.
