I just want to live a happy life

Wei Yanwan was very angry when she heard this order.

Originally, she should have been the one to take the position of Imperial Concubine. She and Jinzhong had already planned in advance to dethrone Imperial Concubine Chun. This step was successful, but she didn't expect that it would fall on the emperor's fault.

If she had not made the emperor drink deer blood wine in order to gain favor, thereby demoting him to a lower position, she might now be called Concubine Ling.

At this moment, Wei Yanwan blamed Shang Jinzhong. If he hadn't insisted on sending the message, she wouldn't have thought of such a stupid idea.

Now that's good, all of them are made into wedding dresses for Concubine Yu.

But what Wei Yanwan didn't expect was that even if she was still a concubine, Hongli would not be able to bypass Chen Wanyin and choose her as a noble concubine.

It was not only because Chen Wanyin had been with Hongli since she was in the Qiandi Palace and occupied a certain position in Hongli's heart, but also because Chen Wanyin gave birth to two smart and clever princes for Hongli.

No matter what, Chen Wanyin is the best candidate for the position of imperial concubine.

The night when Chen Wanyin was conferred the title of Imperial Concubine.

Hongli came to Yonghe Palace. He held Chen Wanyin's hand and said, "Originally, you should have been given the title of Imperial Concubine a long time ago, but there was no vacancy for the position of Imperial Concubine before. I had to let you stay in the position of Concubine for so long and make you wait until now."

Chen Wanyin certainly wouldn't complain: "Your Majesty, you are embarrassing me by saying these things. If it weren't for your favor towards me, I wouldn't have been able to be named a noble concubine. I have to thank your Majesty for all this."

Hongli smiled and was very pleased with Chen Wanyin's compliment.

Chen Wanyin rolled her eyes secretly. The older Hongli gets, the more suspicious he becomes. He always wants to test everything.

It seems that I have to be more careful when getting along with Hongli in the future, Chen Wanyin thought.

During dinner, the two sat opposite each other.

Chen Wanyin picked up the wine pot and poured a glass of wine for Hongli and herself, then raised the full glass and said, "Your Majesty, I offer you a toast."

Hongli was very considerate and raised the wine glass in front of him, clinked it with hers, and drank it in one gulp.

Chen Wanyin watched Hongli drink all the wine in the glass, and only then could she enjoy the food with peace of mind.

It was time to rest. Because Hongli had drunk the aphrodisiac that Chen Wanyin had put in the wine, he was now lying on the bed and asleep.

At this time, Hongli's face was a little red, but other than that, nothing could be seen. He looked no different from when he was sleeping.

Chen Wanyin took a flower petal bath. When she had soaked enough, she wiped off the water on her body and, with the help of Shunxin and Nianrui, rubbed the flower dew all over her body for daily skin care. She touched her smooth, white, flawless skin and felt that there was no part of her body that she was not satisfied with.

After everything was ready, she changed into her pajamas and prepared to go to bed. Looking at Hongli lying on the outside of the bed, she could only step over him and lie on the inside of the bed.

Chen Wanyin lay inside and moved a little further away from Hongli. She covered herself with a quilt, and after thinking for a while, she pulled out another quilt to cover Hongli.

Don't let him catch a cold. If he catches a cold, he will definitely blame it on her.

Then he turned around and fell asleep with his back to Hongli.

The next day, when Hongli woke up, he looked at Chen Wanyin who was sleeping beside him in the same quilt with her. He saw that her cheeks were slightly red and she was sleeping soundly.

Hongli thought of the beautiful last night and thought that she must be tired, so he did not wake her up.

After Hongli left, Chen Wanyin opened her eyes that had been pretending to be asleep. Looking at the room that had fallen silent again, she took another nap.

Next, Chen Wanyin fell into busyness. Although Hongli let her take charge of some palace affairs after the death of Empress Xiaoxian, she was a concubine at that time and the palace affairs she managed were the easy parts. Moreover, she was new to it and was unfamiliar with everything, so Hongli sent an experienced nanny to help her, so she was not tired.

But now she is a noble concubine and has to take care of a lot more palace affairs, some of which are very important. Fortunately, she has experience and is not in a rush. It just takes some time at the beginning.

After a period of time, the harem was managed by Gao Xiyue, Chen Wanyin, and Su Lujun without any mistakes and in good order.

Hongli also felt relieved after seeing this.

Not long after, Yingpin, who had been in the harem for more than a year, became pregnant.

After the imperial physician took her pulse, he learned that she was pregnant. Not only was Yingpin herself happy, but even the concubines who were of Mongolian descent like her were also very happy.

After entering the harem for so many years, they were born in Mongolia, but none of them were able to give birth. They finally had an heir, who was their hope for the future.

You should know that since the reign of Emperor Kangxi, no Mongolian concubine had been able to give birth to children. Yingpin's pregnancy was very important to them. For a time, the Mongolian concubines worked together to protect Yingpin tightly, hoping that she could give birth to the child safely.

Hongli expressed his appreciation for Mongolia by promoting Yingpin to Yingfei ahead of schedule.

As usual, Chen Wanyin gave her some gifts and increased her share so that she could take good care of her pregnancy. Apart from that, she didn't do anything else.

She is now busy with Yongqi's marriage. Yongqi is old enough and it is time to choose a wife to marry.

Hongli was also thinking about this matter. Yongqi had been loved by Hongli since he was a child, so Hongli would naturally care about his marriage. So Hongli asked his subordinates to sort it out and gave it to her. It was a booklet, and all of them were daughters of ministers. Their status was suitable for Yongqi to be his wife, but each of them was very outstanding, and it was difficult for Chen Wanyin to choose the most suitable one for Yongqi.

The chosen wife would be the one to spend her life with Yongqi, so he would also need to review her.

So on this day, Chen Wanyin specially found an opportunity to call Yongqi to Yonghe Palace.

Looking at the handsome young man who walked in, Chen Wanyin was a little dazed. The little child who had been acting coquettishly in her arms at the beginning has grown up so big, and she also felt that she has grown old.

Bah, bah.

She quickly kicked the thought out of her mind. She was not even forty yet and not old at all.

Yongqi walked up to Chen Wanyin with a smile on his face: "Son greets mother."

Chen Wanyin hurriedly told him to get up: "Hurry up, there's no need to be so polite between us mother and son."

"Yes, where is Yongheng? Why isn't he here?" Yongqi looked around and asked.

He loved his only younger brother very much. Whenever he had time, he would come to Yonghe Palace to take him out to play. Sometimes he would even teach him to read and write.

So the relationship between the two brothers has always been good.

"He is being watched by the wet nurse in the side hall. I know you love your younger brother. Mother will bring him here after she finishes talking to you about the matter." Chen Wanyin said with a smile.

"Mother, what's the matter?" Yongqi was also a little curious.

Chen Wanyin asked Shunxin to take out the booklet: "You are going to marry a concubine, right? I have investigated and found that they are all well-educated and well-mannered girls. I think that the concubine I choose will live with you, so I have to choose a girl with a similar personality to you. Take a look and decide which one you want to choose."

Chen Wanyin put the booklet in front of Yongqi.

Yongqi took it and looked through it. He didn't have too much sentimentality in his mind and just felt that any one of them would be fine.
