Jingren Palace

Liu Hua always thought that the difficult times in the palace were sad, but in the blink of an eye, the cold December had arrived.

After a while, the spring of next year will begin to brew.

However, in Jingren Palace now, the concubines' jealousy has already been released.

"The title of Imperial Concubine has been restored. The Emperor is truly very kind to her."

Concubine Qi said this sarcastically, and then her ally, Noble Lady Fucha, added fuel to the fire, "That's right, if you ask me, it's really a great favor.

When she was first conferred the title of Imperial Concubine, the title should have been restored. I've always called her Imperial Concubine Nian, and I'm not used to calling her a concubine."

Nian Shilan puffed out her chest, raised her head and moved her neck.

With a slight smile on her lips, she squinted her eyes at Concubine Qi and Noble Lady Fucha and said contemptuously, "This hair ornament on my head is really heavy.

Even if there is a title or not, it is not something that others can enjoy."

Concubine Duan coughed a few more times, attracting Nian Shilan's attention.

Under the gaze of Nian Shilan who was trying to tear out her bones and eat her flesh, Concubine Duan was not afraid at all. Instead, she looked at Liu Hua.

She whispered softly, “In previous years, the New Year’s Eve banquet was hosted by Concubine Hua.

This year, there have been great victories in the southwest and northwest, and Concubine Qian's sister has given birth to a prince, and the emperor has specifically ordered a grand celebration.

Jingpin tried her best to reduce her presence and stirred the tea leaves in the Jun kiln tea bowl.

He pricked up his ears and listened carefully to every word that Concubine Duan said.

"Sister Qianfei gave birth to the emperor's first son, so her status is truly precious.

Why not help Concubine Hua to host the New Year's Eve banquet?"

Liu Hua raised the corner of his mouth slightly, offered Nian Shilan a cup of tea, and complimented her, "In terms of intelligence, who can compare to you, Concubine Duan? I am dull, so I will not participate.

Besides, the Empress Dowager and Consort Hua are here, and even Consort Duan is here, so why don't you just let me do it?

"I am willing to give it a try."

Liu Hua looked over and found that Zhen Huan's gaze was full of ambition.

Yixiu, who was sitting at the top of the table, glanced at Zhen Huan indifferently, and there was no shock in her eyes that Liu Hua had not expected.

Instead, Liu Hua discovered from Yixiu's smiling eyes the pleasure of sitting on the mountain and watching tigers fight.

Nian Shilan wanted to stop her, but Yixiu agreed.

"Sister Wanpin has been pregnant with the heir for four months. Under the care of Imperial Physician Wen, she is in good health.

Moreover, she was originally going to be made a concubine, but was delayed due to some things.

Sister, you must seize this opportunity."

Yonghe Palace

Liu Hua blew the foam on the milk tea, and Jiang Zhongmin saluted respectfully in front of Liu Hua.

"Your servant, Jiang Zhongmin pays his respects to the Concubine Qian. I wish the Concubine Qian long-lasting health and happiness."

Liu Hua raised his head and motioned her to stand up. Jiang Zhongmin said respectfully, "This servant just came from the Empress Hua Guifei's place. Her mother and the mother of Concubine Wan are both back for this year's New Year's Eve banquet.

But the Emperor also conferred the title of Third Rank Lady on Concubine Wan's mother, and Concubine Wan's father is one rank higher than yours. This ranking is truly difficult, and I would like to ask Concubine Qian for guidance."

Liu Hua finished a cup of milk tea, showed a perfunctory smile, and said: "Eunuch Jiang is afraid of offending people. If I say that my mother should be ranked first because I am a concubine, then it is certainly natural.

But the key point is that Eunuch Jiang was promoted to the position of Chief Steward of the Imperial Household Department because of Concubine Hui's incident.

Caiju was about to say a few words when Liu Hua interrupted her.

Smiling, she said to Jiang Zhongmin, "Then let Wanpin's mother be ranked before my mother. Wanpin's father is a fourth-rank official, while my father is only a fifth-rank official."

Jiang Zhongmin wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. The charcoal supply in Yonghe Palace has always been sufficient.

Jiang Zhongmin's heart was pounding, and he sighed inwardly, thinking: "It's really hard to work in the palace."

Liu Hua did not offer him any tea as usual, but directly asked Dongli to send Jiang Zhongmin out.

Meeting An Lingrong's puzzled gaze, Liu Hua dismissed everyone and said softly, "Every New Year's Eve is a time for celebrations of beauty and splendor. Furthermore, the Empress has already said that a high-ranking concubine will be entering the palace next year."

"The Empress specifically cited the example of Concubine Tong. As far as I know, Longkodo's eldest daughter is just 18 years old this year."

An Lingrong was mixing spices and placed the agarwood in a silver spoon on Liu Hua's nose. She said soothingly, "Sister, don't worry. Even if a high-ranking concubine enters the palace, isn't there still Concubine Hua?"

An Lingrong chuckled, took the silver spoon away and added it to the spice box.

He murmured to himself, "It's a blessing for you to be smelled by your sister before you even finish it."

Then she moved closer to Liu Hua, her face flushed, and she couldn't help but recall that Liu Hua used her mandarin duck handkerchief to stuff her mouth yesterday.

That look of rage and shame might be... what makes me unable to stop.

Although Liu Hua was comforted by An Lingrong, he could not help but be anxious.

Yinzhen actually doesn't look much like Big Fat Orange, which proves that this world is a mixture.

There are definite world lines, but there are indefinite world lines.

There are always infinite possibilities outside the rules.

That woman was said to be born with jade, and the jade bi that promised eternal prosperity had been circulating in the capital for a long time.

Liu Hua pinched his brows and his gaze stayed on An Lingrong's hand as she prepared the perfume.

Thinking of An Ling's voice that sounded like the sound of nature, if this world really was a mixed one.

So no matter how powerful his cousin is, Liu Hua will fight against her.

【Tong Mansion】

Longkodo looked at his elegant and dignified daughter with a smile, then lowered his eyes to look at the dishes in the bowl.

Sheheli smiled a little, and Longkodo said excitedly: "The old lady left in the palace by Empress Xiaoyiren, Aunt Liuguang, sent a secret message. Our Rong'er will be a high-ranking concubine when she enters the palace."

Tong Jia Yunrong painted her eyebrows like distant mountains today, dyed them with dark blue paint, and her eyelids were painted with sunset red.

She looks like a free and easy beauty who came out from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, exuding a sense of pride.

Now she looked serious and asked Longkodo earnestly,

"Father, you and General Nian have always been at odds, right?"

Longkodo snorted coldly and angrily smashed the wine glass in his hand on the table.

He said disdainfully: "He was originally a Han Chinese lackey. If he hadn't raised the flag and made some military achievements, how could he be on equal footing with me now? I am the emperor's uncle."

Tong Jia Yunrong stroked the jade disk in her hand and said to her mother, "Please find me some simple clothes. Forget it, there's no need to look for anything else. Just look for that Buddhist robe."

Longkodo looked at his daughter and said dissatisfiedly: "You too, so young, in order to build up your momentum, I sent you to live in the temple for a few years.

The makeup I put on now is more serious, it really looks like I've left home. Why don't you change your look?"

Tong Jia Yunrong curled her lips into an inscrutable smile and said, "There are many lively and quiet people in the palace. Since ancient times, things are precious because they are rare. It's not a bad thing for my daughter to be like this."

Longkodo scolded him with a hint of worry: "You are a little too arrogant."

Tong Jia Yunrong was not as cautious as the people in the mansion, fearing Longkodo. She just apologized and then said slowly:

“My daughter heard that the Emperor, in order to please Concubine Wan, showed her the blooming lotus flowers in April.

However, Concubine Wan returned the favor by showing the emperor the winter butterflies.

As long as you pay attention in this cold winter, lotus flowers will always bloom.

Add a few large red or golden koi fish, or a few festive lotus flowers.

The daughter believed that now that victory had been achieved in the southwest and northwest, Nian Gengyao was going to go to Dzungar to fight.

The Emperor will certainly hope for another miracle like the dragon appearing in his dream."

Tong Jia Yunrong held the jade disk, which had been warming from holding it for a long time, in front of her eyes. "The concubines in the palace are only concubines, but I am the only goddess."
