Volume 52
Yuqin finally came from the Lu family in Jiangnan, a great scholar. Even after many years of entering the palace, she maintained a certain distance from Manchu customs and refused to bow down. Therefore, she suffered this loss so hard that she could not speak for a moment.
Xinpin shook her head mercifully and smiled, "Sister Qingpin is still a Han girl after all, and she doesn't understand these rules under her. Then Sister Qingpin remembers this time: a woman cannot enter the horse shed and cannot get close to the horse because she is afraid that the woman at this time will be unlucky for the horse!"
The Empress Dowager also had eyebrows, lowered her head and drank a cup of tea, then said, "Emperor, what Xinpin said is very much. Whether it is the rules of the ancestors or the health of Concubine Ling and the Emperor's Heroes, this southern tour should not force Concubine Ling to go with her."
"I will make the decision on this matter and let the concubine stay in the palace. The emperor will be above the concubine's throne and choose another throne to follow him."
The emperor had already decided that the six heads of the inner court who accompanied him were: Empress, Chun Guifei, Lingfei, Qingpin, Yingpin, and Xinpin.
At this time, there were Concubine Yu and Concubine Shu on the throne. If Concubine Ling could not go, Concubine Yu and Concubine Shu had a chance.
However, over the past few years, with the growth of the fourth prince, the fifth prince and the sixth prince, the front harem has become closer to the wait-and-seeness between the three princes.
Originally, Yongqi seemed to be the most promising, but I don’t know if it was because of this speculation that the emperor gradually became colder. Since the second son Sun Mianen got the yellow jacket, the fifth prince Yongqi has a shorter opponent in the inheritance of the throne, besides the two legitimate sons, Yongqi has added a shorter opponent in the matter of inheriting the throne. This means that Concubine Yu’s status has declined invisibly.
The emperor's wife's wife who was referring to Yongqi was actually Ortai's granddaughter. Based on the emperor's hatred for Ortai and Zhang Tingyu, even the sons and nephews in the Ortai family could still be valued, but their status in the emperor's heart was different. However, the emperor pointed to Yongqi's wife's wife and foreign vassals' position towards Yongqi was shaken again.
In short, Concubine Yu's status has dropped greatly in recent years, and she is older at this time, so the emperor has not visited her for a long time.
Therefore, if Concubine Ling doesn't go, there will be only one person who can replace him: this is Concubine Shu.
Concubine Shu's heart inevitably became alive again, and she glanced at the emperor with a watery look.
The Empress Dowager looked at Shu Fei from afar, feeling both uncomfortable and pitiful, and said, "Why would you rather ask Shu Fei to go."
Concubine Shu's eyes lit up and she was about to come forward to pay her respects, but the emperor laughed loudly.
"... Huang Er Nie didn't know anything, and his son had already assigned an important job for Shu Fei."
Concubine Shu was slightly stunned and looked up at the emperor.
The emperor smiled and said, "Shujia died earlier, leaving Yong Yan, who was still young. Before Shujia died, she entrusted Yong Yan to Concubine Ling. However, later Concubine Ling gave birth to a lotus, and she had just passed Bailu, and she met happiness again. If Concubine Ling asked Concubine Ling to take Yong Yan again, her son would be afraid of being tired of Concubine Ling."
"Now that the position of concubine is above the position and there are no children around him, the only one is Shufei. Therefore, the son originally thought that before the southern tour, he formally issued an order to send Yong Yan to Shufei to raise his children."
"But if Concubine Shu also went with her this time, then Yong Yan would be left without anyone to take care of him."
Concubine Shu was stunned, and joy appeared in her eyes.
This was originally something she had planned for a long time, but the emperor had never given a clear word, which made her feel unsure.
