In order to eat, I signed a contract with the system

If we were to ask who in the palace cared most about Wen Yuan, it would of course be the Queen. Even the Emperor, the father of the child, did not pay as much attention to Wen Yuan as the Queen.

However, Wen Yuan was obedient and behaved like a turtle, hiding in Chuxiu Palace and refusing to come out. She had a loyal and capable maidservant by her side who guarded the palace gate. Wen Yuan was able to avoid many of the Queen's tricks, which made the Queen hate her very much.

Originally, the Queen wanted to take advantage of the opportunity when Wen Yuan was half alive and give her one last severe blow, but she was shocked by Wen Yuan's request for her mother to enter the palace to accompany her during childbirth. She realized that there was indeed a rule for childbirth for concubines above the rank of concubine. With the help of Lady Guarjia, the Queen's plan to severely injure Wen Yuan was completely ruined.

There was another incident in the middle. When the Queen heard that Wen Yuan wanted her unmarried sister to enter the palace to accompany her during childbirth, she couldn't help but think of the same scene that happened to her. For a moment, the Queen even really wanted to agree to Wen Yuan's request, and then find a way to let the Emperor meet Wen Yuan's sister. It would be even better if the Emperor could like Wen Yuan's sister.

The queen twistedly wanted to see if Wen Yuan would still be able to love her sister without any grudges if she had the same experience as her. Or after Wen Yuan's sister entered the palace, she could find a way to kill Wen Yuan's child and put the blame on Wen Yuan's sister...

What will Wen Yuan do then? Will she forgive her sister or will she get rid of this person as cleanly and neatly as she did in the past?

"What a pity to miss such a good opportunity..." Yixiu was practicing calligraphy in the study room after learning that Wen Yuan did not force her sister to enter the palace to accompany her. She just sighed lightly, and finally, her rationality that had endured for so long stopped her crazy temptation.

After Madam Guaerjia entered the palace, the Guaerjia Mansion lost its housekeeper and many matters were handed over to Yuyin. Yuyin handled the affairs of the mansion with great difficulty, and sincerely hoped for Madam Guaerjia's early return.

Similarly, Lord Guaerjia was also very uncomfortable with it. Although he had Butler Yuyin to take care of him, his food, clothing, housing and transportation were not affected at all. However, whenever Lord Guaerjia returned to the main courtyard to rest, he still felt uncomfortable with the lack of someone by his side.

Although there were many concubines and illegitimate children living in the backyard in the Guaerjia mansion besides Mrs. Guaerjia, Lord Guaerjia had always been a very orthodox ancient male in his thinking. Only his wife and legitimate children were his legitimate family members, the rest of the concubines were just slaves, and illegitimate children were considered half family members. Especially since he was a civil servant, he valued legitimate and illegitimate children more than ordinary Manchu officials.

It is no wonder that Wen Yuan in the plot could say in front of the Queen, a concubine's daughter, that she doesn't like talking to her concubine-born sisters in the family, because the owner of the Guaerjia Mansion has such thoughts. Influenced by Lord Guaerjia, it is really not intentional for Wen Yuan to look down on concubines.

And the reason why he dared to fire at the queen's face like that, Yu Yin thought that it might be because Wen Yuan in the plot had never thought of collecting information about everyone in the palace in advance like himself before entering the palace. In Wen Yuan's mind, the queen should be a Manchu princess born from the legitimate wife. Who could have thought that the emperor in the plot would have so many crazy operations? It would be no problem for a concubine to be promoted to the principal wife and a concubine's daughter to become the queen.

I have to say that Lady Guaerjia is quite resourceful, and Wen Yuan's brain is indeed inspired by Lady Guaerjia's.

Under the care of Lady Guaerjia, Wen Yuan gave birth to the emperor's sixth son before Nian Gengyao pacified the western frontier and paid his respects to the emperor. After Nian Gengyao's celebration banquet was over, whether in order to fulfill her promise or to balance Hua Fei's power in the palace, the imperial edict for Wen Yuan's promotion arrived before the sixth prince's full month. The imperial edict not only wrote that Wen Yuan was promoted from Rongpin to Rongfei, but also directly gave the sixth prince a name---Hongyi.

Now the most glorious woman in the harem finally changed from Hua Fei to Rong Fei. Hua Fei was naturally dissatisfied, but now that Wen Yuan, who had a son and a favorite and was of the same rank as herself, could not be treated the same as before. Hua Fei was unhappy that she could not torment Wen Yuan, so she turned to find ways to torment Zhen Huan and An Lingrong.

Hua Fei constantly stirs up disputes in the palace, and the emperor is disgusted but ignores her due to the situation. Zhen Huan accompanies the emperor to appreciate the snow and practice calligraphy, and Chun Changzai enters with plum blossoms, attracting the emperor's attention. Chun Er speaks innocently and is very favored by the emperor.

An Lingrong was already inferior and jealous of Zhen Huan's favor. After Chun Er gained favor, she took advantage of Zhen Huan's power and her innocent appearance to deliberately bully An Lingrong.

The Queen found evidence that An Lingrong had set up a villain. An Lingrong was afraid of being reported by the Queen, so she had to reluctantly join the Queen's camp.

At this point, the harem camp was divided into three factions. Wen Yuan's faction did not join, and she happily stayed in Chuxiu Palace to raise her children.

It's not that the empress hadn't tried to take action against Hongyi, but the Guaerjia clan finally had a prince, and there was hope of becoming the emperor's in-laws. How could she just watch others destroy the hopes of her clan?

Since Hongyi was born, other members of the clan who were originally on the sidelines now came one after another. Not only did they maintain close contact with Lord Guaerjia outside the palace, but many of the men who had been hiding in the palace were also handed over to Wen Yuan.

Wen Yuan's palace fights were just for favor, she has never harmed anyone. In the plot, she would even drug people because she was jealous of other people's favor. Now that Wen Yuan has gotten what she wanted, she naturally no longer values ​​the emperor's favor as much as in the plot.

Not long after Hongyi was born, Yuyin's birthday arrived. Since it was her fifteenth birthday, it was also the day for Yuyin to come of age, so the people in the Guwaljia Mansion held a coming-of-age banquet for Yuyin.

Not many people came to the banquet. In addition to some relatives of the Guaerjia family, there were also relatives and friends of Mrs. Guaerjia and a few families who were on good terms with Lord Guaerjia.

Concubine Rong in the palace specially sent someone to deliver a gift. Now the Guaerjia Prefecture is very popular. When people heard that Concubine Rong, who gave birth to a prince in the palace, attached so much importance to her sister, they showed even more enthusiasm and kindness. In the midst of such a prosperous and lively scene, the protagonist of the banquet, Yu Yin, was asked to meet someone at the back door.

Yunxi disappeared for quite a long time. Yuyin thought that he would not come to her coming-of-age party. After all, he had been gone for too long. Even if Yuyin had confidence, she began to waver.

Looking at the boy in front of her who had changed more than half a year ago, Yu Yin opened her eyes wide in surprise: "What have you eaten in the past six months? How come you have grown so tall?"

Hearing Yu Yin's question, Yun Xi proudly puffed out his chest and said smugly: "Sister, do you still think I'm a child when you look at me now?"

Yunxi thought about how he had been suppressing his longing for her over the past six months, holding his breath, eating hard and exercising hard. Wasn't it all for a day like this?

"Now, let's see how my sister can refuse me! After the New Year, I will be fourteen years old and can get married. Then I will go to my royal brother to ask for an order!" Yunxi made a decision silently in his heart. Yuyin has already reached the age of marriage, and he is two years younger than her. If he does not ask his royal brother for an order first, by the time the emperor remembers to arrange a marriage for her, Yuyin's sister may have already married.

Yunxi thought of Hongshi, who was older than him but still unmarried, and was afraid that he would also be forgotten by the emperor and would be left alone until he grew older. Although it was not a big deal for a man to get married late, he was not in a hurry. Sister Yuyin could not wait!
