His voice was extremely gentle and filled with heat that hit Ji Ling's ears.
He heard Yinzhen chuckle softly, stroking her long hair and back over and over again, his laughter filled with love and doting.
Ji Ling's face suddenly became hot.
She didn't raise her head and lay in Yinzhen's arms, just thinking over and over in her heart: Am I going to become a noble concubine?
Concubine Chen?
…
A few days later, Ji Ling finally understood what Yinzhen meant when he said, "Being a concubine is a big deal, and no matter how quick the preparation is, it will always take a hundred days."
During the Qing Dynasty, it was very rare to establish an imperial concubine. It can be said that as long as there is an imperial concubine in the harem, the queen is basically deposed.
Therefore, the imperial concubine will be established. Generally, the imperial concubine will be established after the queen commits a serious offense and is imprisoned by the emperor, or the queen dies. She is the same as the deputy queen. Most of the time, she can even directly take charge of the queen's rights, such as Yin.
Zhen's adoptive mother, Tong Jia of the Kangxi Dynasty, was named the imperial concubine in the 23rd year of Kangxi. She took charge of the affairs of the six palaces and acted as queen, becoming a real and nameless "queen".
But that was because Emperor Kangxi's second empress had passed away, and the harem needed a "vice empress" to lead it.
So right now... Ji Ling's position as "noble concubine" is already the highest-ranking position in the harem.
After the Qintian Supervisor selected a date, he first reported it to the Jiuzhou Qingyan Hall as usual. Only after receiving the emperor's personal consent did the auspicious date be determined.
The day of Yinzhen's appointment was in September, and the ceremony of conferring the imperial concubine was solemn. September was the time of crisp autumn weather, and the weather was neither cold nor hot, so you wouldn't be sweating after a long trip.
The official of Qin Tianjian knelt down and saw that the emperor drew a red line under the date on the paper. He tapped the table again, turned to look at Su Peisheng, and said carefully: "Send it to Concubine Chen for a look."
, if she doesn’t like it, change it.”
When he mentioned Ji Ling, Yinzhen's voice was as gentle as a spring breeze. The Qintian Prison official suddenly flashed his mind and immediately kowtowed in response.
Su Peisheng took it respectfully, closed the book, walked out in small steps, called Xiao Chenzi over, gave a few instructions about serving the emperor, then went out, and walked quickly towards the natural painting in person.
When we arrived at the gate of the natural painting, Xiao Fenzi was directing the little eunuchs to adjust the door sills at the gate of the courtyard. They were sweeping the courtyard and clearing flowers. The servants were all beaming as they came and went.
Xiao Fenzi turned around and saw Su Peisheng, reached out and patted the little eunuch on the back, then walked over and was as respectful as before. Just when he was about to bow down, Su Peisheng raised his hand and held his hand tightly, giving him a hug.
He started to pull and complained: "It's so polite! It's so polite!"
Xiao Fenzi didn't force it, and stood up straight in this posture. Seeing Su Peisheng holding a book in his hand, the paper was bright yellow, knowing that it was probably about his master's appointment as a concubine, he turned sideways and respectfully asked Su Peisheng to go in first.
Ji Ling got up late today and was still washing up in the warm pavilion. Xiao Fenzi ordered someone to bring tea and snacks, and invited Su Peisheng to rest temporarily in the waiting room. After a while, the little eunuch from the dining room brought tea and snacks.
Fenzi stood up and went over to make arrangements for him in person. Su Peisheng hurriedly stretched out his hand to hold him down, told him not to do anything with him very affectionately, and then pulled him to sit down.
Xiao Fenzi squinted his eyes and smiled slightly, and said: "Eunuch Su is in the Qingyan Palace of Jiuzhou. Our natural painting skills are naturally incomparable, but this is disrespectful. I will treat Eunuch Su to a nice tea next time." He
As he spoke, he had already poured a cup of tea and handed it to Su Peisheng. The little eunuch next to him couldn't get enough of it. He quickly turned around and poured tea for Xiao Fenzi. He offered it to Su Peisheng with both hands respectfully and said, "Eunuch Fen!"
Xiao Fenzi didn't even look at it and said: "Everyone, go down."
The young eunuch who was waiting in the room, such as Feng Lunyin, immediately went out. Su Peisheng took in everything and smiled clearly, thinking that this is not because your ancestors have smoked. The master who followed him was lucky! Who could have imagined it?
Back then, she was just a small person, but now she has climbed all the way up, without any storms or waves, and she has been promoted to the position of a noble concubine.
Looking at the way the emperor is attracted to the sixth elder brother, and the ambiguous situation that the fourth elder brother and the fifth elder brother have not yet been crowned kings... It is still unknown how much good fortune this noble lord will have in the future!
Su Peisheng raised his neck and drank the remaining tea like wine. After a sip, he pointed in the direction of the house and said: "They say water flows to lower places and people walk to higher places. You are following the wind and the current.
They didn’t even leave, they just floated up!”
Xiao Fenzi lowered his eyes, unable to see clearly the expression in his eyes. After a while, he chuckled softly and said: "Eunuch Su is not an outsider, and he would not laugh at me. Seven or eight years ago, I, Xiao Fenzi, would not have thought that I would be able to do this now."
Have a great day.”
As he spoke, he stood up and said, "Eunuch Su once mentioned something to me back then, and now Xiao Fenzi pays homage to my father-in-law."
Su Peisheng quickly helped him up with both hands and said repeatedly: "What are you doing? No, absolutely not! Those principles, I just said casually, in the final analysis - there are many people who understand the principles, and they can do it
But Shao, you still rely on your own cultivation and sincerity to be where you are today!"
He paused, reached out and patted Xiao Fenzi on the shoulder, and said with a meaningful smile: "Besides, Eunuch Su may still rely on you in the future!"
Not long after, Ji Ling had come out. Su Peisheng quickly handed over the prepared booklet, recounted the words of the emperor and the Qin Tianjian officials, and said with a smile on his face: "Concubine Chen..."
Ji Ling raised his head and glanced at him, and said with a smile: "The emperor's decree has not yet been officially issued, and I have not been named a noble concubine. Eunuch Su does not need to be so generous." Seeing Su Peisheng's face covered with sweat, he turned around and told Qixi: "Give me the gift.
seat."
Su Peisheng first agreed to the first sentence, but after hearing the second sentence, he didn't even dare to say it. Ji Ling didn't force it, smiled and said: "Then bring the ice bucket to Eunuch Su, so that he can cool down."
Su Peisheng thanked him repeatedly.
Ji Ling turned over the book and asked, "Did the emperor decide this date?"
Su Peisheng nodded and said: "Hui Chengui... According to Concubine Hui Chen, if there are red traces of cinnabar on the bottom, it is the day set by the emperor."
Ji Ling nodded and said: "Since it was decided by the Emperor, I will obey the Emperor." After saying that, he lazily handed the book back to Qixi.
Qixi took it, put her hands forward and said softly: "Eunuch Su."
Su Peisheng bowed and took it. He didn't expect Ji Ling to be so casual about Feng Guifei's life. He just glanced at it briefly and made up his mind. There was a slight shock on his face for a moment.
He thought for a while, stood there, and was not in a hurry to leave. He just casually moved away from the topic, walked around to the sixth elder brother Hongxin without saying a word, and picked up the emperor's teaching instructions to the sixth elder brother.
Speaking of things, it can be seen that Concubine Chen really listened very attentively.
In the open.
Ulanala sat on the phoenix throne, and Concubine Yu sat with her head straight, her eyebrows lowered and her eyes raised, and she raised her eyelids from time to time to look at the queen's face.
Sitting opposite her, Xibi saw that Concubine Yu also looked restless and restless.
The news has just come through - the person in the natural painting will soon change from Concubine Chen to Concubine Chen.
