Mrs. Lu Guogong also learned some recent events from the crown prince's daughter in the palace. She did not expect that in just a few days, a village girl would become the king in the palace.
After listening to her daughter's words quietly, Duke Lu said, "You also know that Ci'en Palace has always preferred Yu'an Palace. As long as the third prince's concubine makes no big mistakes, Ci'en Palace will naturally treat her favorably. This need not be compared, the prince's words are right.
, you just need to secure your position as Crown Princess first. The canonization ceremony is in early September, and your canonization ceremony is also on that day. What a grand event this is. No matter how strong that girl is, her status will never be as good as yours.
.Besides, what's the use of her fawning over Ci'en Palace? Before the registration, both the third and second princes will have to leave the palace and open a mansion. The prince's palace has already been sorted out."
The Crown Princess breathed a sigh of relief, "Then I will prepare a housewarming celebration for the two families first." When the second prince and the third prince and his wife leave the palace to open their mansion, the third prince and princess will not be able to come back to the palace as they are now.
You must be fawning over it.
Yu'an Hall.
After the luncheon, Li Yuhua took pity on Mrs. Xu's old age and ordered them to rest in the side hall for a while before leaving the palace. Mrs. Xu quickly said, "There are time limits for leaving the palace in the imperial decree. How can I make an exception for the empress?"
"It's not a big deal, but it's just a short break. Grandma, don't worry, I still have some dignity. It's almost the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the weather is getting colder day by day. Even though it's warm at noon, I just ate
It's easy to choke on the wind if you just go out with your things. You're old, so you can't compare with young people." Li Yuhua raised her lips and smiled, "I asked the palace staff to clean up and leave the room in advance."
Old Mrs. Xu deserved to live for several decades longer, and her determination was far beyond that of the Xu mother and daughter. She was all smiles and said, "Then I would rather be respectful than obey orders."
Li Yuhua looked at Mu Anzhi and said, "Your Highness, let's go and have a rest too."
Mu Anzhi held Li Yuhua's arm, and the Xu family members stood up and bowed to see them off. When the two left, Mrs. Xu had a stiff smile on her face. She took her two daughters to serve beside Mrs. Xu, and followed the palace attendants to the side hall to rest.
.
Li Yuhua and Mu An didn't have the habit of taking a nap in the capital. The two of them were lying on the couch talking and laughing. Li Yuhua rubbed his belly and said, "I ate a bit too much today."
"Looking at her little potential, I can't just hold on." Mu Anzhi couldn't help but rub her belly, so she ordered Sushuang to give Li Yuhua two hawthorn pills to help with digestion.
"When I'm happy, I have a big appetite, and when I have a big appetite, I eat more." Li Yuhua took the sour and sweet hawthorn pills and asked Mu Anzhi, "Refresh yourself."
"It's quite refreshing." Mu Anzhi said, "You also want to be more long-term. How will the days be like in the future?"
"Then I'm not afraid. Do you think they are really convinced? Now it's just superficial. One day I will have to make my enemies tremble when they think of me and regret their mistakes. Only then will I be really happy!" Li Yuhua raised his eyebrows.
, "I have never lost a fight since I was a child! If you have been to our village, you will know what kind of person my sister is!"
Mu Anzhi saw that this girl was so crazy that he asked her, "Whose sister are you?"
"You are my brother. You are my brother." Li Yuhua stuck out his tongue playfully, then peeled off another hawthorn pill and ate it, "Let me tell you something new. You must have never heard of it. Have you heard of it?
Do women go to the ancestral hall to sit and discuss matters with the men of their own clan?"
"Oh, you can still go to the ancestral hall to discuss matters with men? This is wrong. You don't even have an uncle. Which ancestral hall should you go to?"
"The ancestral hall of Lao Bai's family." Li Yuhua's pride was palpable, "My surname is Li, sister Muxiang's surname is Bai, and my family is the only family with the surname Li in Baijia Village. The Li family has established an ancestral hall, and I have appointed myself as the patriarch. What I'm talking about is
In the old Bai family, nine out of ten families in Bai Village are surnamed Bai. When Sister Muxiang's father died, her second uncle almost took away her house. Later, when we were weaving, there were also unruly people in the village. Since there were many people in the family,
They are senior and bully us orphans and widowed mothers. I thought, this is not possible, we have to be able to speak in the clan. So we found Uncle Xiaojiu, the son of the head of the Laobai family, to partner with Xiaojiu.
Not bad. He is the only brother in his family. Although he has an uncle, he is alone and not much different from us. When we earn some money, I will ask Sister Muxiang to spend a hundred taels to repair their old Bai family.
The ancestral hall, and then pushed her into the ancestral hall for discussion."
"What are the rules and regulations? In the past, people in our village often said that my family has a foreign surname, and they looked down upon Sister Muxiang and Aunt Hongmei. They talked behind our backs all day long. When we got capable, it was not the Lao Bai family's ancestral hall but also us.
You have the final say." Li Yuhua said, "Those people who were the most pleasant to talk about in the past are all flattering and saying good things in front of us. Even if we fry meatballs at home, they will bring me a bowl to flatter me."
Li Yuhua waved his hand and shook his feet proudly, "It's not my fault, third brother, of course the palace is also very good, but I also lived a very good life in our village before, and everyone respected me."
"I asked you why you look like a female gangster when you reveal your true colors."
"You are such a talented gangster." Li Yuhua rolled up the book on the small kang table and hit Mu An's hand. Mu An laughed, "Let's just keep joking, don't do it."
"If you say nice things about me, you won't do anything. If you say bad things, I will beat you."
"Why do you like to hear nice things so much?"
"That's because I'm very good." Li Yuhua put his hand on himself and asked Mu Anzhi, "Look at my appearance, my character, and my abilities. Have you ever seen anyone better than me?"
OK?"
Mu Anzhi couldn't bear it anymore and burst into laughter.
Li Yuhua was a little annoyed when Mu Anzhi smiled, but later she laughed too. She really felt that she was very good.
Mu Anzhi's laughter spread far to the side hall and reached the ears of Mrs. Xu. Mrs. Xu secretly thought that Yuhua really liked the temperament of His Highness the Third Highness. This marriage was an accident, and she was really a lucky girl.
.
Mrs. Xu in the next room was getting more and more heartbroken. As for Xu Huiran, she was looking at the white jade vase with flowers on the corner of the table, feeling a little lost.
There are not many around Yu'an Palace. Pearls, jade, and antiques can be seen everywhere, and everything is exquisite. Empress Dowager Lan prefers Yu'an Palace not just by talking about it, but by giving her to Yu'an.
The palace's rewards are always of the highest quality. Take this white jade bottle as an example. The snow-white jade bottle has no flaws. Such a piece of whole jade is extremely rare. Such a jade bottle is not available to ordinary people.
It should be regarded as a treasure passed down from generation to generation, but in Yu'an Palace, it is only suitable to be placed in the side hall as an ordinary osmanthus flower.
In the afternoon, the wind was sunny and the old lady Xu took her daughter-in-law and granddaughter to say goodbye. Li Yuhua smiled and said, "Your Highness and I are about to go to the Imperial Grandmother's place, so I won't leave Grandmother and Mrs. Xu alone. These two things were sent by the Imperial Grandmother yesterday."
Come, grandma took it back to try it. It is also commonly used in summer, but it is not common in the cold weather."
Mrs. Xu saw that there were a small basket of cold melons and a small basket of honeydew melons, both of which were placed in small bamboo baskets with red paper on them and tied with yellow ribbons. They were neatly and beautifully packed. Mrs. Xu quickly thanked her, and Li Yuhua ordered
The palace attendant sent it out.
Li Yuhua and Mu Anzhi went to Ci'en Palace in a walking chariot.
When Li Yuhua arrived, Mrs. Lan Guogong was still there. Li Yuhua smiled and said to Queen Mother Lan, "Good afternoon, Grandmother."
"Come and sit." Empress Dowager Lan held Li Yuhua's hand and asked her and Mu Anzhi to sit beside her. Li Yuhua nodded slightly at Mrs. Lan Guogong, "This is the first time I've met Mrs. Uncle, she looks healthy."
, you have a strong body."
"Mother, thank you for your attention, tough guy!" Mrs. Lan Guogong also smiled when she heard Queen Mother Lan ask, "You hosted a banquet for your mother-in-law's family at noon. Are you satisfied with the banquet?"
"No matter how dissatisfied this is, there will be no satisfaction. The imperial grandmother even went over to enjoy the vegetables. My grandmother and the others were very grateful. And our wife, when she saw that I was doing so well, she passed away in joy." Li Yuhua.
Smiling, she peeled a grape and handed it to Queen Mother Lan's lips, "It's really dumbfounding. I even bothered Doctor Xu to make a trip to make everyone laugh for a while."
Queen Mother Lan smiled and said, "This is your blessing. People who understand will be happy for you."
"In the past, the blind fortune teller in our village was very good at telling fortunes. He touched my bones and told me my fortune. As soon as he shook my hand, he said, I am born with a precious life. I didn't believe it at first, but sometimes, even if I don't believe in fate, it doesn't work." Li Yuhua said proudly.
With her face, Mrs. Lan Guogong couldn't hold back the decent smile on her face. She thought to herself, when this village girl suddenly got her ambition, she just wished that the whole world would know about it! This face is really disgusting to look at, she said strangely.
Her stepmother was able to pass by, probably because she didn't want to see the villain getting proud.
Li Yuhua added, "My grandmother is old. After lunch, I left her to rest for a while. She was very uneasy and felt that it was against the rules. I said the rules are nothing more than human relationships, not to mention that they were ordered by foreign ministers before.
Now they are all in-laws. At that age, it would not look good if she ate a lot of food and wine and choked on the wind when she went out, so I left her to rest for a while."
"It doesn't matter." Queen Mother Lan also said. Anyway, Queen Mother Lan could just stay with her family for the whole day.
For a moment, when the second princess, Mrs. Lan Guogong, came over, Mrs. Lan and her mother-in-law stood up and left. The second princess sent her grandmother off, and her mother went out. Li Yuhua told Queen Mother Lan in detail what gifts she had given to her family. Queen Mother Lan
Nodding slightly, he secretly praised Li Yuhua in his heart. Even though Li Yuhua was aloof from her mother-in-law's family, she was so considerate in her work that no one could fault her.
Empress Dowager Lan patted Li Yuhua's hand and said with a smile, "Come and have a look with me. It's the August Festival next month, and the Mid-Autumn Festival gifts given to the courtiers of each clan are all here."
Aunt Lin held up a bright yellow booklet, and Li Yuhua took it and said with a smile, "I will also follow Grandma Huang to open my eyes."
The first line is:
As the festive season approaches, the Secretary of the Interior announces the following:
From the three palaces to the concubines, princes, princesses, and behind them are the royal family and important ministers, the amount of rewards for each is planned according to their rank. The Secretary of the Interior is naturally old in doing this. Empress Dowager Lan mainly wants to show Li Yuhua, Li Yuhua
Seeing that the Xu family's rewards were obviously more generous than those of third-grade ministers' families of the same rank, they knew that this was for the sake of the third prince's concubine's mother's family, and a separate line of small words was written on it: Jia En's mother's family.
Li Yuhua's eyes swept over Marquis Lu's reward, "The Secretary of Internal Affairs is an old man. Grandma, why is Marquis Lu's reward so heavy? It's even thicker than Uncle Yong'an..."
"The Marquis of Lu has been in Northern Xinjiang all year round. It is a miserable place, so he rewards the generals heavily to show the court's kindness." Empress Dowager Lan said that she knew Li Yuhua, "You see, the rewards of the Marquis of Nan'an are only lower than those of the Marquis of Lu. The Marquis of Nan'an is stationed in the Southern Barbarians.
It’s a wild place.”
Li Yuhua looked at the reward list and secretly studied in his heart.
Ever since he saw the reward list from the Department of Internal Affairs, Li Yuhua didn't want to leave the palace anymore. During the Mid-Autumn Festival, various palaces gave rewards. His Majesty the Emperor, the Queen Mother, and the Empress. These three palaces were all the best, followed by the princes and princesses. They were the princes and princes.
The concubines are ranked in the third class. After leaving the palace and the prince ascending the throne, they will be reduced to ordinary clans and will be ranked in the fourth class.
What's more, she has a deep hatred with the Lu family, and I'm afraid even the fourth class won't be able to get their turn by then!
Even looking at these gold and silver rewards, you have to fight for them!
After having dinner at Empress Dowager Lan's place, the couple returned to the palace. Mu Anzhi was reading in the bedroom. Li Yuhua asked Nanny Sun to go to Mu Anzhi's study to talk. Mu Anzhi looked at her and clasped her fingers until her eyes were filled with tears.
When he came out, something must have happened. He gave Xiao Yi a subtle wink, and Xiao Yi followed him quietly. When he came back, he whispered, "Your Majesty, you closed the door of the study room and asked Miss Yunyan to guard the door outside.
Don't dare to come near."
Mu Anzhi dared, he went over and silenced Yun Yan with a gesture, and sat swaggeringly in the open chair outside the study room, flipping through the book in his hand, his ears raised to receive the information in the room.
study.
Li Yuhua put her hands on the clean and flat table and asked Grandma Sun, "Mammy, if there is one family in our village, they are not separated. Only brothers and sisters living together can show affection. Why does the prince in the palace grow up?
Are we going to separate the families and move them outside the palace?"
Grandma Sun said, "This is the rule in the palace. When the prince grows up, he will leave the palace and open a mansion to entrust vassal territory."
"Is there an age limit for leaving the palace?"
"not at all."
"I really don't want to leave the palace. I feel that living together is the best way to show intimacy. Aunty, do we have to leave the palace?"
Grandma Sun also guessed that Li Yuhua didn't want to leave the palace, but she didn't expect that she said it so directly. Grandma Sun thought for a moment, "The prince's mansion outside the palace has been cleaning up. The Queen Mother is reluctant to leave the palace. If Grandma doesn't want to leave the palace,
, you might as well ask the Queen Mother to change her palace and continue to live in the palace."
"Why do you want to change the palace? I think our Yu'an Palace is quite good."
Grandma Sun said, "Yu'an Hall is the side hall of the East Palace. After His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's canonization ceremony, His Royal Highness the Crown Princess will move here."
Li Yuhua blinked twice, then lowered his voice and asked, "You said our Yu'an Hall is a side hall of the East Palace?"
Grandma Sun nodded.
Li Yuhua knew why she had to leave the palace and open a mansion. Her third brother had been occupying the room in the East Palace.
"It turns out that's the reason." Li Yuhua suddenly sighed, "I don't want to leave the palace, but I want the family to live together. For this reason, we must leave the palace. Otherwise, it will be bad for others to misunderstand us."
Li Yuhua's thoughts were changing rapidly, "Mommy, Mr. Tang Xueshi, who teaches third brother, we have to show some respect during the Mid-Autumn Festival. Do you know what Mid-Autumn gifts were given to Mr. Tang during the Mid-Autumn Festival in the past?"
Aunt Sun, worthy of being the fifth-ranked minister in the palace, immediately said, "In the past, the princes and tutors all received unified rewards, mostly the Four Treasures of the Study, seasonal fruits, etc. Your Highness will not study this year. I wonder if the Secretary of Internal Affairs has prepared any rewards for Tang Scholars."
.”
Li Yuhua has a good memory. She has read the reward list of the Department of Internal Affairs, especially those close to Mu Anzhi. She shook her head and said, "They are just rewards for ordinary fourth-grade civil servants. Let's do this. I will prepare a Mid-Autumn Festival gift for Scholar Tang tomorrow.
Gift, send Xiaofan to deliver it."
Then she stopped mentioning the matter of staying in the palace, got up and walked out of the study to find Mu Anzhi.
Mu Anzhi quietly returned to the dormitory when the topic of Li Yuhua turned to Scholar Tang. He originally thought that Li Yuhua would be disappointed because he could no longer stay in the palace, but unexpectedly, this girl was quite happy at night, taking a fragrant bath and drying her hair.
While snickering, Mu Anzhi really couldn't stand her snickering and asked her, "What are you so happy about?"
Li Yuhua chuckled again. She pushed back her half-dry long hair, and her brows and eyes showed the moist youthful atmosphere after bathing. Even though she smiled with a bad look on her face, she only looked naughty.
"When I think about our wedding in the East Palace, I can't help but laugh."
Mu Anzhi:...This is worthy of happiness for most of the night.
Li Yuhua gently shook her long hair and discussed with Mu Anzhi, "Prepare another Mid-Autumn Festival gift for Marquis Lu tomorrow."
Mu Anzhi coughed slightly, "It's a little thicker. Marquis Lu treats you a little differently. We were getting married and he gave you a big gift."
"What kind of gift?"
Mu Anzhi ordered Shuangxue to take out the gift book. Li Yuhua opened the first page and saw the name of Marquis Lu. The gift was really a great gift, and it was very sincere. It was written clearly, 10,000 grains of silver, and the following note: the third prince's concubine.
Li Yuhua's eyes widened and his waist straightened, "Marquis Lu gave me ten thousand taels of silver!"
Then, Li Yuhua tapped the table gently, and said with a gentleman's expression, "With this simple gift, Marquis Lu is also a person worth making friends with. Look, what a simple gift, so I accepted it.
"
Mu Anzhi: I know what corrupt officials look like.
Li Yuhua admired the 10,000 pieces of silver given to her by Marquis Lu, and a cold feeling flashed in her heart:
Marquis Lu had never had any contact with the Xu family, and she had never known Marquis Lu. The money was specifically given to her, so her guess was correct, and the help she received must have come from her mother.
Although she had never heard her mother mention anything about the Imperial Capital, her guess was not wrong!
Well, Xu Zhen, I'm sorry, compared to Lu Hou, your value to me now is too low!
