A quick journey starting from Wu Dalang

After Gao Xiyue gave birth to her daughter Jingyan, Bai Ruiji also arranged fetuses for the alchemical doll, a boy and a girl, using the soul of a frontier woman and the soul of the son of the previous emperor respectively.

This frontier woman led several other women to resist foreign enemies and eventually died in battle. However, their contributions were concealed because those people felt that this would damage their reputation.

The son of the late emperor was Chenghu, the full brother of the deposed Crown Prince Yinreng. Although he died young, his soul had been with the late emperor for decades and he had learned perfect imperial skills. Bai Ruiji made him experience an illusion in a magic weapon, allowing him to experience the entire modern history.

As for what he had learned, Bai Ruiji had no idea. Perhaps it would be revealed when the other party was born or even grew up.

Hongli was very excited about Bai Ruiji's pregnancy. He had a premonition that his legitimate son Meng might be born soon. This was a man's intuition (confidence).

When the doll gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl, the emperor was very happy and gave them names. The girl was named Jingse and the boy was named Yonglian. He even gave Jingse the title Hejing.

Jingyao and Jingse became the only two daughters of Hongli who were given titles, which also represented the emperor's high regard for Hongli. Hongli doted on the twins very much.

Bai Ruiji guessed that Jingse probably wouldn't like musical instruments, and was a little disappointed. She transformed the magic weapon into the shape of a weapon, so it would be a good idea to train a female general.

After that, Su Lujun became pregnant. As for Jin Yuyan, she had suffered three miscarriages due to abortions. Hongli thought she was unlucky and gave her a sterilizing drug. Although he doted on her occasionally, Jin Yuyan no longer had a future.

Three months after Yongzhang was born, the emperor could no longer bear it and summoned Hongli to the palace overnight. Hongli suppressed his excitement and entered the palace. A few days later, the emperor passed away.

Someone from the palace came to invite Bai Ruiji into the palace. Bai Ruiji put down the pipa in her hand and followed the person into the palace, starting a new era for the two of them together with Hongli.

The funeral of the late emperor had not yet ended, but there was a huge argument about the appointment of a empress dowager. The reason was that the late emperor had never deposed the empress, so Yixiu should be named empress dowager.

But how could Zhen Huan agree? She strongly opposed it. What was Qingying doing at this time? She went to Jingren Palace to meet Yixiu and persuade her to give up everything and live in the palace.

"What price did you pay for this?" Yixiu closed his eyes, not wanting to be bothered by Qingying.

"You stupid idiot, can you use your pig brain to think about it? If you die, how can Zhen Huan let me go?"

"No, aunt, the Queen Mother said that if I die, you can live."

"She won't let any of them go. You should find Hongli now and persuade him to respect the laws and etiquette." If Qingying was favored and had a chance to become the queen, Yixiu might give up herself to save Qingying. However, the late emperor had ordered that Qingying was not allowed to be promoted, so Yixiu had to take care of herself first.

Seeing Qingying's still confused eyes, Yixiu had to break up her words and said to Qingying: "It was the late emperor's decree that you were never allowed to be promoted. If Hongli could take me out and make me the empress dowager, then you would still have a chance to occupy a high position in the future. Do you want to be a noble lady for the rest of your life?"

Qingying seemed moved. She kowtowed and left Jingren Palace. However, Yixiu was still worried. She used the little power she had left to contact the Han officials in the court to speak for her.

Hongli was also very troubled at this time. Only the Han officials headed by Zhang Tingyu supported Yixiu in this matter, while most of the other officials did not take sides. The few who opposed it were the empress dowager's people.

Hongli wanted Yixiu to come out, firstly to suppress the empress dowager, and secondly, with the precedent of Yixiu, Qingying could be promoted, which coincided with Yixiu's idea, but Qingying didn't understand.

Qingying was still hoping that the Queen Mother would be kind enough to let her and her aunt go, so she went to see the Queen Mother again. But when the Queen Mother saw the stupid Qingying, she forgot about Yixiu's difficulty for a moment.

Just when the Queen Mother was still counting on Qingying to kill Yixiu, Yixiu finally used benefits to get other Manchu officials to move. Yixiu exchanged all of her and Uya's manpower outside the Kilometer Palace for the Fucha clan to help her clear her name.

She only wants a respected position, not power. Fucha is also willing to take action, but they can't let the Queen Mother's family dominate the world. This will not be conducive to Bai Ruiji's actions in the palace.

With the help of Fucha, the emperor immediately wrote an imperial edict, intending to send Yixiu to become the empress dowager. When the empress dowager learned the news, she decided to go all out and directly sent the poisoned wine to Jingren Palace.

The Queen Mother was very successful. She created a time difference. As soon as Yixiu drank the poisoned wine, the Emperor's edict was announced to the world. Yixiu was filled with regret, but it was too late. In order to protect Qingying, Yixiu had to pretend to be buried with the Emperor.

This brought huge benefits to the Ulanara clan. As a result, Qingying's orders from the previous emperor that she had been carrying were no longer abolished. It seems that when the whole palace is enthroned, Qingying will be able to get a high position.

The funeral ceremony of the empress dowager was kept simple so as not to affect the emperor's coronation ceremony. But it was the funeral of the empress dowager after all. No matter how simple it was, it still took some time. Even Zhen Huan, who was already the empress dowager, had to observe mourning for her, just because she was the late emperor's wife.

Zhen Huan was holding a breath, and finally vented it when the emperor ascended the throne and was about to confer titles on his concubines.

"Queen, the positions you proposed are all good, but it is really inappropriate for Qingying to be a concubine." The Queen Mother put the book back in front of Bai Ruiji, which was a real slap in the face to Bai Ruiji.

Bai Ruiji was not afraid of the Queen Mother: "What the Queen Mother said is true, but Qingying is an old woman from the palace after all, and she has given birth to an heir to the throne, so a concubine position is not too much."

"Queen, Jingsi is your daughter now, and Qingying cannot be considered to have given birth to an imperial heir." The Queen Mother was also warning Bai Ruiji, but Bai Ruiji didn't care.

"What position does the Queen Mother want to give Qingying?"

"Empress Xiaojingxian is her closest relative. Logically, she should observe mourning for her for three years."

"What does the Empress Dowager mean?" Bai Ruiji asked again in disbelief.

“Let Ulanara stay in Qiandi to mourn for Empress Xiaojingxian for three years before entering the palace.” Even though I had seen this plot once when I entered this world, I still found it absurd when it really happened before my eyes.

Just when Bai Rui was silent, the palace maid announced that Qingying had arrived.

"I have met the Queen Mother and Her Majesty the Queen"

"Get up"

"Qingying asks to stay in the residence to mourn for her aunt." After Qingying said this, the empress dowager looked at Bai Ruiji proudly, and Bai Ruiji was speechless for a moment.
