Maobin said: "Since ancient times, the mother has been valued by the son, and the son can be valued by the mother. If we go to court first, don't we have a ready-made example?"
Ji Ling knew that she was talking about Yin.
Yin's biological mother was Wu Ya, a concubine of the Kangxi Dynasty. However, when Concubine De gave birth to Yin, she was just a lowly official woman, serving the master and serving tea and water. Later, she was favored by Emperor Kangxi.
Only then did Yin come into existence.
Yin was the node that changed her destiny, but it was also a problem that she would cherish for the rest of her life.
This son reminds her of her humble years all the time.
Even though she later became one of the four concubines of Kangxi, and her position in the harem was stable, and all the concubines looked up to her, as long as Yin was mentioned, someone would always mention, intentionally or unintentionally, her past as a slave and maid.
Even among the mouths of many senior concubines, there are still vivid stories about how Wu Yashi worked step by step and planned everything, and finally made the emperor fall in love with her.
As for Yin, he left his biological mother Wu Ya before he was full moon, and was sent to Tong Jia, the imperial concubine with the highest status in the harem at that time, and became Tong Jia's adopted son.
Precisely because of Tong Jia's relationship, Yin received special treatment from Kangxi and became one of the few elder brothers who was raised in the palace. It can be said that the son is more valuable than the mother.
Mao Bi stared at Ji Ling and said in a string of words: "Sister Ji, think about it carefully, the current emperor is in the prime of the Spring and Autumn Period, but there are only three young brothers in the palace, except for the fourth elder brother of Concubine Qi, who is very young.
Twenty, the other fifth elder brother Hongli and sixth elder brother Hongzhou are only thirteen years old this year."
Qianlong is only thirteen years old this year, Ji Ling thought.
Maobin paused and then said: "The child came out of my sister's belly, and my sister is the child's biological mother. No one will change this. Isn't the Queen Mother just an example?"
Ji Ling became bolder as she spoke more and more. He raised his head timidly and said, "My queen, you have talked to me for a long time. I sound... quite confused. I'd better let me go first."
Let’s take care of ourselves before we talk.”
Maobin returned to Jingyang Palace, and her personal maid Jasmine helped her into the inner hall, and then she asked in a low voice: "Master, did you really give that prescription to Lord Ji?".
Mao Bi narrowed her eyes and said: "This is the wish of the Concubine Nian, and I naturally have to give it to you."
Jasmine looked confused and said: "I don't understand. If I really let Ji Gui give birth to a child, if the emperor doesn't agree to let Concubine Nian raise her, Ji Gui's mother will be more valuable because of her son. Wouldn't Concubine Nian be lifting a rock?"
Smash yourself in the foot?".
Mao Bi said sarcastically: "Even you want to get this key, but Concubine Nian doesn't listen to my advice and insists on going her own way. She insists on giving this prescription to the Naji family. She said that she would give birth to a child through the womb first, and then go to the mother's house later.
son……".
It's so stupid.
She paused and sneered: "Leave the mother and leave the son... The situation is changing rapidly, and everything in the world is changing. It is hard to predict what will happen tomorrow. Concubine Nian made a good calculation, but the Queen and the Emperor are not fools, so they can leave it up to her."
Playing around?".
Jasmine was silent for a while and said: "Master, I see... Concubine Nian is in a hurry."
Mao Bi nodded and said: "Yes. She is anxious. She almost goes crazy thinking about the child! Concubine Qi has the fourth elder brother, Niu Hulu has the fifth elder brother, and Yubi has the sixth elder brother... Which one is not a mother?
How expensive is a son? Even though Nian Fei is in the limelight right now, these women might even climb over Nian Fei in the future.”
Jasmine was thoughtful.
Mao Bi said: "The previous Hai Guiren was promoted by the Queen, but he failed to live up to expectations. In fact, you don't know that at the beginning, Concubine Nian also wanted to take Hai Guiren for her own use. If I hadn't seen that, then
Haishi is an arrogant and impetuous person, so he advised Concubine Nian to give up this idea. Maybe the person who gave birth to a child today is Haiguiren."
Jasmine's eyes suddenly lit up and she said: "There is another candidate, and Concubine Nian can really promote 'her'!".
Mao Bi gave Jasmine a strange look, stretched out her hand and tapped her finger, and said: "I thought you were smarter, why are you confused again? How ambitious is Nian Fei? She just wants to use her to give birth to a child.
, she only wants to have girls from serious talent shows like Hai Guiren and Ji Guiren in her next life."
She narrowed her eyes slightly and said: "The 'she' you are talking about... is here to stir up trouble. She is not even worthy of serving the Nian Concubine."
Yikun Palace.
Yikun Palace is located to the north of Yongshou Palace, south of Chuxiu Palace, and east of Changchun Palace. The word "Yi" means assistant. The Queen's palace is Kunning Palace, and Yikun means assisting the Queen in managing the Sixth Palace.
Needless to say, the furnishings in the palace are luxurious. At this time, Concubine Nian is sitting at the octagonal table in Dongnuang Pavilion. She is wearing a pomegranate red gold-rimmed flag outfit. Her charming face is decorated like a flower with rouge and gouache, which is bright and moving.
It almost compares to the extremely rare Malachite Jeweled Penglai Wonderland Bonsai behind her, as well as the two-eared golden vase with pine trees and flowers.
But at this time, Concubine Nian only had caution on her face. She looked at Yin, who was sitting across the table, immersed in drinking soup without saying a word. She wanted to find something to say to break the silence, but she couldn't find the right one for a while.
topic.
It was her request that Yin come to Yikun Palace for dinner today.
The emperor was "nice" to her and responded to her requests. As long as Concubine Nian asked the emperor to come, the emperor would most likely come to eat with her.
But what Concubine Nian hopes even more is that even if she doesn’t ask for anything, the emperor will still come to her, and that’s what outsiders see as the most beloved person in the Sixth Palace.”
Yin drank the soup in silence, as the day's political affairs had consumed most of his energy.
Introspection in silence and thinking in silence are his ways of self-recovery.
Since the year when his adoptive mother Tong Jia passed away, he has gradually developed a character of being taciturn and not showing his emotions and anger. Because of this, his biological mother Wu Ya didn't like him very much and even used the word "taciturn and gloomy" in private.
"Such words are used to describe him.
The scene of a loving mother and a filial son, with laughter and laughter never belongs to him and her, even if they are biologically related mother and son.
The dishes on Yikun's palace dining table are all rare and the taste is light, so as not to destroy the pure original flavor of the ingredients. Concubine Nian has always disliked onions, ginger and garlic, fearing that they would smell after eating them. Two palace maids were nearby
Use chopsticks to carefully pick it apart for her.
After Yin finished his meal, he felt not full on the way back to Yangxin Hall.
what to do?
He naturally thought of the Jigui people who loved hot pot.
I don’t know since when, Ji Ling and the east courtyard of Ji Ling have left the impression on him that “there are all kinds of delicious food with strong flavors”.
Yin's idea was correct. When he arrived in the east courtyard of Jingyang Palace, Yin went in quietly without anyone reporting, which shocked Ji Ling.
On the dining table, a large bowl of chicken soup wontons is overflowing with fragrance, with green onions, red peppers, and golden chicken soup. It also comes with two plates of spring rolls, one with chives and the other with chive filling. It looks like
Not long after it came out of the pot, it was still steaming.
