Chapter 53, can't wait

Shunbin is obviously still angry.

Yongguiren said carefully: "Miss Shun, you are so worried. Although I am the Minister of the Office of the Interior, he is in charge of the royal family. Without the emperor's will, why would he dare to act without the will of the emperor?"

"Besides, there are also rules in the palace. From the day I entered the palace, I have to abide by the rules in the palace; it is not just my daughter."

Shunbin snorted, "After that being said, we have been in the palace for many years. I don't know how those servants from the Ministry of Internal Affairs gave me some food."

"Not to mention anything else, although your food, clothing and expenses were all based on your position and there was no overreach. However, the material is many times better than others in the same position."

Don’t you know that if you continue to say this, your words will become more and more dead as you say it, and you will be unable to pull them back.

She quickly changed the topic and looked back at Guan Lan.

Guan Lan hurriedly handed the tray he was holding forward, and Yongguiren explained with a smile, "This is the red flower-shaped mattress that the emperor has given me... I will bring it to Empress Shunpin."

In fact, even Guan Lan felt wronged for the master in this matter, "This is what the emperor rewarded to the master, and it was not stolen by the master. Why should the master go to Shunpin?"

How could Yongguiren give up?

It is not rare to mattresses in themselves, but the meaning of this one I got this time is extraordinary.

The mattress with red flowers was brought by the Turgu envoy and presented to the emperor.

The return of Turgut would be a major event in history for the Qing Dynasty. Therefore, if you get such a mattress, you will be able to show your status in the emperor's heart even more.

——What's more, the top five people were all above the concubine; and she was just a regular person at that time.

Just because of the huge difference in this position is enough to make people feel how extraordinary her position in the emperor's heart is.

But at this moment, people were under the roof and had to bow their heads.

She smiled and tried her best to be as if nothing had happened.

"Isn't it just a mattress? What's the value? Even if it was offered by the Turkut tribe, it was just that their Mongolian throne cared about. I'm not a Mongolian, so I don't care so much."

"Besides," Yong Guiren raised his head high and looked up at the sky. "I understand that it was also the credit of Shunpin to restore the noble this time. If it weren't for the previous shining cloak, she wouldn't have said good things about me in front of the Empress Dowager; if I hadn't been worried that I would finally be willing to contribute to Shunpin, I would have no use in front of the Empress Dowager."

"But this noble position is not my wish? If I want to go higher, I cannot do without the support of the Empress Dowager. If I want the Empress Dowager to set no obstacles, I must live in harmony with these two Niuhulu families."

Yongguiren looked around and said, "What's more, they all lived in a yard. They were two people, four hands; I was only one person. If I didn't bow my head, I would be asking for trouble for myself, so why bother?"

Shunbin was still young after all. When she heard that Yonggui Ren was going to offer the mattress to her, she was happy and couldn't help but stand up, walked to Guanlan in person and lifted the cover on the tray.

Longing broke out in Shunpin's eyes.

But she held back and left her face open.

"This is what the emperor rewards you, what is it about giving it to me?" Although Shunbin was reluctant to leave, he still moved his hand away as if he was hot.

The mattress was different from the previous cloak. The cloak was made of Yongguiren's own clothing, but the mattress was given by the emperor. If she wanted it, would she still have some self-esteem?

Concubine Yong hurriedly said with sincerity, "Look at what Empress Shunpin said, I have already said that from that cloak, whatever I have, I will be your Empress Shunpin."

"Besides, I can restore my nobles this time, and I understand that this is all about Empress Shunpin, you have spoken well for me in front of the Empress Dowager and the Emperor. With such kindness, I would like to present everything to Empress Shunpin, and I would be willing to do it."

As the Concubine Yong said, shedding a few tears, "In the past eight years since I thought that I had entered the palace, my position has always been so awkward. I have also made friends with high positions with all my heart, but no one really cared about me. Only you, Empress Shun, are sincerely considering me... Empress Shun, treating me like this, and I am willing to do everything."

Shunpin saw that Yonggui was shedding tears, and then he felt a little relieved.

"I just ask you, what have you done since the emperor returned to the palace? He actually asked the emperor to pay attention to you again?" Shunpin refused to relax easily.

Concubine Yong lowered her head and wiped her tears. After thinking about it, she said, "I dare not hide it from Empress Shunpin. I really didn't do anything. If I say anything, it's just a nice word for you, Empress Shunpin."

Shunbin looked at Yongguiren up and down, "Just take it seriously nothing else?"

Yonggui Ren wanted to swear, "I believe that Empress Shun is really nothing else!"

Shunbin then breathed a sigh of relief, "Forget it, even if this matter is over, I should repay you if you help me."

"As for this mattress... since it is a gift from the emperor, it is really inconvenient for me to keep it. I think you should take it back."

When Yongguiren saw that Shunpin's tone was relieved, he couldn't help but have an idea, "This mattress is valuable only its meaning, not that there is no better one in our palace. Since the Empress cannot keep this imperial gift, I will definitely try to find another better one for the Empress!"

Shunbin was then happy with his ears and smiled faintly, "Okay then."

On July 10th, the emperor served the Empress Dowager from the Old Summer Palace and Autumn Mulan.

This time, Wanxi has another special expectation.

In December last year, the mother of the Qixiong Prince Lavandorji died of illness. The Qixiong Princess returned to Khalkha with the Qixiong Prince to Chuanxiao. The emperor issued an edict in June that when the princess came back from the north, it happened to be the time for Qiu Ximulan, so she didn't have to go back to Beijing directly, but went to the summer resort to meet together.

In a flash, it has been half a year since the Seventh Princess left, and Wanxi has long missed her so much.

Although they had been following the emperor's southern tour before, the mother and daughter had been separated for several months; this time, after all, the daughter had just gotten married, and she left so far.

Moreover, Khalkha is far away in the north of the Mohe, and it is the severe winter when my daughter leaves. The coldness in the north of the Mohe is not something that the capital can imagine. Moreover, Xiao Qizhong has always had cough from the autumn and winter days, so Wanxi is so worried that she can't rest assured.

But wearing filial piety for mother-in-law is human relations. Wanxi can't bear to let go, so she has to ask her daughter to go.

In a flash, we finally came back and we could meet at the Summer Resort. Wanxi couldn't wait to hold her daughter in her arms.
