Chapter 41: Princess Pingyang

Li Ronghua looked down on my high-sounding words, and his eyes were wafting. Seeing that neither the Empress Dowager nor Xue Po spoke, he said back: "People's hearts are unpredictable, who can say it accurately? Just talk about your daily behavior, and who doesn't praise the gentleness and politeness. If it weren't for the incident today, I wouldn't know that you actually have the heart of Princess Pingyang, the Han family."

Now that I have said this, I can't back down. Besides, I'm still shameless when I'm in the boudoir, and I'm not involved in my brother's reputation in my boudoir? So I said in a deep voice: "Ronghua accuses Huai Shu of his words and deeds today, and uses the ancients to ridicule. Although Gu is not talented, he must not be arranged by others. If Ronghua really thinks that Gu is making any mistakes, it's better to say it clearly. Why not humiliate like this?"

Li Ronghua looked guilty and didn't look guilty. Instead, he pulled the concubine Mao beside him, looking angry and said loudly: "Sister, it's your discovery. I'm a humble person. You should give me a certificate in front of the princess and all the sisters."

Concubine Mao was suddenly pulled in by her, her face seemed to be embarrassed, and she was stammering and said indistinguishable. I took the opportunity to say, "Empress, you are the head of the concubines in the harem, and you have grown up when you see your sister. You naturally know what kind of person I am. Huaishu also believes in the Empress. It is really unclear to be criticized today and there is no way to defend it. Please tell me the whole story. It is also easy to tell me a clear distinction." After that, he bowed in front of her.

Concubine Mao would not allow me to kneel down, so she quickly helped me and said, "What is the Emperor's Day? You are the emperor and nobles, how can you be a concubine?" I took the initiative to make sure that you can't afford it.

Concubine Mao didn't know if she was really panicked or was deliberately unwilling to be the first to be a leader, but she just held me tightly and said that she was not good, but didn't mention anything else. The empress dowager watched coldly for a while, and finally smiled and said, "Huaishu won't need to be a sage mirror. She can't stand it. Let's sit back and the Ai family told you one or two, you are the daughter of the royal family, and no one will make your reputation damaged in vain."

The Empress Dowager said, "How dare I be more pretentious?" I quickly went back to sit down, but didn't pay close attention to Concubine Mao's expression. According to Xiaoyun later, she seemed to be relieved and faintly lost.

The Empress Dowager said, "It's also a big mistake for the Ai family. Today, Japan is coming to issue an order. It happened that everyone is here, so I just said it." At this point, I paused and spoke again. It was different from the usual seriousness. "I have a female proofreader named Shi Xie, who is Minhui and Wen. The Ai family is very happy. From now on, I will be named a concubine and give her the title of Jin."

Aunt Jinxi, who was originally silent, walked out and ordered the young eunuchs to record it. She immediately sealed it and sent it to the Office of the Internal Affairs and the Six Divisions. My mind was blank for a moment, and I could only see her female official's skirt swaying back and forth gently, and her thoughts were completely confused.

The female proofreader of the book, Xie, Princess Pingyang, and Ruxiu who disappeared in the afternoon, suddenly a flash of inspiration, Xie Yuji was going to be a concubine, and I recommended her to go to the imperial court.

As soon as the empress dowager opened her golden mouth, the matter was settled. Xue Po, who had never spoken, said: "Mother, the Great Zhou Dynasty has been established for a long time, and there are rules for the promotion of concubines. Xie is not a daughter of a famous family, and the other is not a ritual selection to enter the palace. How could you give her such a high position?"

Li Ronghua waited for this sentence and immediately said: "What the Emperor said is that when I first entered the palace, none of my concubines had received the title of concubine. Xie served the emperor as a palace maid and did not punish her for being a fox. How could she be the supreme sisters?"

When she spoke to the empress dowager, she spoke softly, but no one could understand the injustice. At this time, Xun Fangyi said, "What my sister is saying is wrong. She is the fifth-rank concubine from the beginning, and she has a title, but not just the sister of the Xie family?"

Li Ronghua and her had a deep hatred. How could she be willing to be faced by everyone? She smiled coldly, and the makeup between her eyebrows made her look beautiful. "My sister said this. Although I am not as good as you and I am so loving to you, I still have a memory. When you and I entered the palace, I was the sixth rank, while the Xu family's girls were always there. Are you referring to the deposed concubine Murong of the previous dynasty?"

Xun Fangyi seemed to have not heard the sarcasm in her words, and said with a clever smile: "My sister's memory is indeed not as good as that of her sister. I didn't expect that to be that far away, but our sister Mao was enthroned as a concubine. Isn't she the imperial concubine of our dynasty and the sister we are waiting for?"

Li Ronghua was not careful that she suddenly mentioned Yuejing, her face froze, and she forced herself to say, "How can she compare with Sister Yuejing for a lifetime?"

"Sister is wrong," Xun Fangyi suddenly showed a sharp look and said aggressively: "Not to mention that Concubine Mao had already said just now, Xie is a female proofreader selected by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Her ancestors were also Xie from Dongshan, an official family. Even if she was really an ordinary palace maid as my sister said, she could serve the emperor in a chaotic time of the turmoil of the outside court, and she could bear the praise of the Empress Dowager and sit with us to discuss sisters. Who would let us concubines and concubines serve the emperor well?"

After hearing her, the empress dowager smiled slightly and said softly: "These days when Fangyi worships Buddha, she has thought about things very clearly. The Ai family has survived from the concubines. At that time, the late emperor had many concubines, but she never had a comfortable life like you. This person, in his position, he should always think about His Majesty's dragon body and mood as a concubine. Come on, put Xun's green-headed card back on and arrange for her to serve the emperor as soon as possible."

As soon as these words were said, it was even more heartbreaking than Xie's title just now. It would be fine if the princesses were full of discomfort, but Xue Po and I were also furious. Xue Po even acted coquettishly and said, "My mother, why do you say these in front of me?"

The Empress Dowager's expression was calm, not as doting as before. She said, "You sisters are not very young, and choosing a son-in-law is also a matter of immediate success. My daughter's family is gentle and elegant, and she also has to be generous. If I talk to the concubines, you don't need to be tempted."

Xun Fangyi was in line with the "generous" empress dowager's words and said, "I thank the Queen Mother for being long-loving, but Xie's sister just got the title of honor. How can I get the concubine to steal her good life?"

The Empress Dowager looked at her and paused before saying, "In the harem, it is said that the rain and dew are equal. Although she is a family enthronement, she has no reason to be favored. You can just let it be."

Xun Fangyi then bowed.

The Empress Dowager glanced at everyone under her seat and said, "It's not easy to explain it. She even found Huaishu. Now that the dust has settled, everyone will perform their own duties, take good care of the emperor, and serve the imperial heir of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Speaking of it, the concubines of the King of Qi's family came in after you entered the door, but they have already added grandsons to the Ai family. Even if you are only for yourself, you should understand what's important."
