Deposed Empress General

Chapter 122: Empress and concubine

Views:

The concubine Yue couldn't wait to open the small note, and eight large characters appeared on the paper.

Move after making a decision, wait for the opportunity.

Only after seeing Rong Changan's reply letter did Yue Concubine let go of her high hanging heart.

She doesn't believe in the queen mother at all, the queen mother is high above her, no matter in the harem or in the court, how can she be so rare as a little foreign princess? Therefore, she was very worried about Qing Ming's safety. Only then did she ask Rong Chang'an for help, and Rong Chang'an, who was born in the military and full of righteousness, was able to gain her confidence!

No matter whether Rong Changan is the high-ranking master of the harem, or an ordinary concubine in the down-and-out harem, she still believes in her!

A few days later, in the Fengtian Hall, which is responsible for offerings, sacrifices, weddings and celebrations, court ladies and eunuchs came and went to prepare various tributes and decorations.

All kinds of flowers were picked from the flower shed, just for the moment of the ceremony to bloom!

All kinds of exquisite, precious and rare ornaments were placed on the shelves of the hall one by one.

The colorful fireworks salutes have already been prepared, and they are guarded by responsible people without any relaxation.

And the officials and stewards of the Ministry of Rites who are in charge of this matter are busy, checking every detail of the agenda over and over again!

Although it is the Great Hall of Concubine Concubine, in fact, under the hint of the Empress Dowager and the emperor's acquiescence, the scale is comparable to the Grand Concubine Conferment Ceremony!

In the imperial study room, Li Hai ate the soup delivered by Concubine Yue indifferently, without realizing that there was still Zhao Hongru, Minister of Rites, kneeling in his hall.

"Your majesty, it is a great joy for us in the Great Jing Kingdom to confer Miss Ziyan as a noble concubine. According to the ancestral system, the procedure for conferring an imperial concubine is to read the imperial decree of conferring the concubine in the Fengtian Hall, and then you and the empress will lead the Ziyan The noble concubine went to the Taimiao to inform the ancestors. In the end, the purple noble concubine went to the empress's palace to thank her. Your majesty, do you have any instructions for Yicheng?"

Zhao Hongru, Minister of Rites, has been Minister of Rites for more than ten years, and he is very familiar with various etiquette systems. This is based on the rules formulated by the ancestors.

Li Hai narrowed his eyes, and a very dangerous light shot out from his eyes, "Don't tell me I still need the Queen's permission to become a concubine? What kind of rule is this?"

The Minister of Rites is indeed upright, otherwise he wouldn't have been targeting Rong Chang'an for more than ten years. At this time, it is also a blunt admonition against the emperor's untimely behavior!

"Your Majesty, the empress is in charge of the Six Palaces. I really need to tell my empress about this matter, and there are many places in the ceremony that require the cooperation of the empress." Zhao Hongru said bluntly.

Li Hai suddenly smiled slyly, "Okay, there is no problem with Yicheng. Just follow your instructions! But in the end, Ziyan will go to visit the queen, so it will be avoided!"

If Rong Changan was here, it would be very strange.

Because in the past, since Rong Chang'an emerged, this stubborn Minister of Rites has never said a good word about her, and he has always opposed what she is going to do.

Zhao Hongru didn't agree with her until she was appointed as the general protecting the country and the queen of the dynasty.

Unexpectedly, this time, it was her political enemy who spoke for her. Is there anything more ridiculous than this

Zhao Hongru felt very comforted when he saw that the emperor adopted his opinion. The emperor is not so stupid, he can still listen to opinions.

However, if he knew what Li Hai was thinking, he probably wouldn't be so optimistic!

After Zhao Hongru retired, Li Hai also ordered someone to inform Rong Chang'an of the concubine's ceremony, so that she could make early preparations.

Rong Changan was writing in the study, while Chuntao stood guard at the door.

The emperor walked in with the little eunuch who was accompanying him, and the maid on duty at the door hurriedly invited him in, "Eunuch Qing, what brought you here?"

Eunuch Qing said in a business-like manner, "Where's the empress? The slave family is here to deliver the decree."

The little maid quickly invited Eunuch Qing in.

At this time, Rong Changan and Chuntao had heard the voice and knelt on the ground.

"The sage said: Tomorrow Ziyan will confer the concubine, and the empress will attend in full attire. Hereby!"

Eunuch Qing left after reading, ignoring the purse handed to him by the little maid.

Chuntao quickly stood up, supported her mother, and gently patted the dust on the skirt that did not exist on her.

After the servants all went down, they observed their own concubines, and said with relief, "Miss, don't be unhappy. Every harem is like this. The seventy-two concubines of the three palaces and six courts, our emperor is already very few! Only six or seven A concubine."

Chuntao saw that the empress's mood had not changed, so she continued to persuade, "After all, you are the master of the six palaces, no matter how many concubines there are, I can't surpass you."

When Rong Changan saw that Chuntao was worried about him, he couldn't help but smile indifferently. This smile turned out to be overwhelming, making people feel comfortable and happy!

"Okay, Chuntao. Your mother is an iron-blooded general who has experienced many battles. Everything in this palace is a trivial matter for me, you know? Go quickly!"

Chuntao still wanted to persuade her mother, but the facts were like this, she had to think about it, so she backed down!

Immediately walking to the door, Rong Changan suddenly stopped her and reminded, "Chuntao, bring the Jiaowei guqin from the warehouse, I want to learn the piano."

Chuntao froze for a moment, then followed her mother's order to get it!

But he was muttering in his heart, the empress doesn't know how to play the piano at all, what do you want the piano for? Do you really want to learn the piano? very strange!

In fact, Chuntao would never understand that Li Hai fell in love with her because Ziyan played an ancient song "Pipa Xing" for Li Hai in her previous life on the Jiaowei guqin!

In this life, she doesn't care about Li Hai's love, but she won't let Zi Yan get it either! Therefore, she wants to control Jiaowei in her own hands.

At this time, in the Yushi Mansion, Zi Yan looked triumphantly at the wedding dresses and dresses sent by the House of Internal Affairs.

After Xiaolian's death, her maid is now a little girl named Yue Yue.

At the beginning of the month, she saw one thing after another sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, many of which she had never seen before, so she was very excited!

"Miss, come and see! What did the Ministry of Internal Affairs send again? Just sent the wedding dress and jewelry, what is it this time?" Yue Yue walked to the big red tray and looked at it curiously. Guess what's in there

Ziyan is also in a good mood. Although she is only a noble concubine, her scale is comparable to that of a concubine. Everything sent by the House of Internal Affairs is a treasure among high-quality goods, which makes her very satisfied.

The bright red silk satin was lifted, revealing a thin light pink palace dress inside. The purple lotus flowers embroidered with fine gold threads are blooming so brightly as if they were alive!

Every stitch and thread is so delicate, making the whole palace dress a treasure!

Chu Yue said, "Miss, why don't you give it a try? This summer, the Ministry of Internal Affairs has really worked hard, and the sewing is so breathable!"

The little eunuch who delivered the things also hurriedly said, "For the affairs of the imperial concubine and empress, the slaves and maidservants naturally have to do their best!"

Zi Yan made a look, took the clothes at the beginning of the month, and handed a heavy purse to the little eunuch with a bend of his wrist.

The little eunuch laughed from ear to ear when he received the purse, and said good things about Zi Yan!
