My eunuch An is a yandere
Chapter 31 Full Moon Banquet
When Xiao Yuan'er arrived at Lingqi Palace with the valuable gifts, the place was already full of palace concubines.
Now that Bai Ningwei has to assist in managing the six palaces, it is impossible for her to live a secluded life even if she wants to.
Xiao Yuan'er raised her hand, and the eunuchs behind her placed the gifts one by one. This was a much grander display than any other.
"Yuan'er came to congratulate Mother Hui on her dream of becoming the ruler of all six palaces."
Xiao Yuaner's words made it clear that Bai Ningwei's current income was obtained by her own tricks and she was not a good person.
The room was completely silent, but everyone present, though silent, had a different expression on their faces. They probably agreed that this was indeed the case. Without her extraordinary skills, how could Bai Ningwei have gone from being a minor talent without a title to becoming a brilliant beauty in such a short time?
He completely forgot that the first time Bai Ningwei's status changed was when she suggested the duck down bag to Xiao Duo, giving the emperor another good thing to reward his ministers.
Her success is completely different from those concubines who only focus on female competition and internal friction.
Bai Ningwei was not annoyed. After all, with all the honors she had now, in the eyes of the other concubines she was a scheming and calculating person.
She had no intention of explaining, as it would be pointless to do so. Furthermore, even though she had already stood against everyone, she didn't hold back at all.
However, Xiao Yuan'er had embarrassed him in public, so he couldn't just let her go. After all, how could he let a princess like her, who was in charge of the harem, take advantage of him?
Thinking of Xiao Yuaner's in-laws in her previous life, Bai Ningwei patted the empty seat next to her and asked her to sit over, then said with a smile.
"I am only assisting the six palaces. Important matters still need to be decided by the Concubine Xian. And as you sisters know, I have to take care of the prince and I am too busy to do anything else. I need an assistant until the Concubine Xian is released."
Everyone was shocked when the assistant appeared. Who wouldn't want to experience the thrill of being the boss? This was a power only the queen and the four concubines had.
"So I'm going to ask the eldest princess to at least come and help me in the next three months."
Xiao Yuan'er grew up pampered. Although she knew that the power of managing the harem was very great, she was still a child after all and did not understand what it meant.
Nanny Qin reacted faster than Xiao Yuan'er. She bowed deeply and expressed her gratitude on behalf of the young master.
Bai Ningwei didn't even look at Nanny Qin's overtures. As the saying goes, when a person leaves, the tea gets cold. She didn't care about the attitude of a servant who was still attached to her old master.
To catch a thief, you must first catch the leader. As long as you have the master under your control, the subordinates will naturally obey you. If the master of a servant is not on good terms with you, even if you show your sincerity, it may not be of any use.
As the one who had the last laugh in her previous life, she was naturally not a pure and kind person. The reason why she gave Xiao Yuan'er this power that everyone wanted was because there was no such little prince in her previous life, and their relationship was just ordinary.
So she might as well give this child a chance in this life.
If Xiao Yuan'er understood within three months that they were not enemies, she could teach her some real things to prevent her from repeating the same path as in her previous life.
In her previous life, after marrying, Xiao Yuan'er struggled to understand the transition from princess to wife. First, she was betrayed by the maid who had been with her since childhood, and then fooled by her husband's family. It wasn't until she turned thirty that she finally saw through everything, and she wasted her life with the frustrations she felt.
If she didn't understand, that was fine. Breaking up the siblings wasn't difficult for Bai Ningwei.
Bai Ningwei's decision once again made everyone change their faces. She was really bold to let a child manage the harem.
But Xiao Yuan'er was the legitimate princess, and the others' positions didn't allow them to question their status. At most, they could see who would sleep with them tonight and take the opportunity to complain to Xiao Duo.
After sending away those who came to flatter her, Bai Ningwei assigned work to Xiao Yuaner.
"The next one is the little prince's full-moon banquet. Although my position is not high, I am the only one who can take charge of the overall situation. I will entertain the ladies from outside the palace, and the little prince will rely on you to take care of him. You also know what happened on the way back to the palace. On the day of the full-moon banquet, even if you mess up everything, I will cover it for you, but you must keep an eye on your little brother."
Bai Ningwei's arrangement was quite brilliant. Xiao Yuan'er, for the sake of her younger brother, naturally wouldn't contradict her on this matter. She had already secretly vowed to complete the task with high quality and quantity, bringing honor to her younger brother.
Make Bai Ningwei dare not look down on her, and make her father look at her with admiration.
On the day of the full moon banquet, Bai Ningwei gave Gualv and Nanny Qin to Xiao Yuan'er, and told her that she could arrange everything in Lingqi Palace and she just had to take good care of the little prince.
When Xiao Duo brought a group of ministers to watch the ceremony, he was amazed by the huge table in the room.
"Why such a big table?"
Xiao Duo looked at the big table that could seat twenty people at the same time and was very puzzled.
Bai Ningwei stepped forward and saluted, then replied in a serious tone.
"The table is big, so it's not crowded."
This will prevent local air depletion.
In fact, this can prevent some people from taking advantage of the opportunity to make small moves.
Xiao Duo understood after a little thought.
"This child is weak, so I named him Xiao Qi. May he be safe, happy, healthy and prosperous."
As soon as Xiao Duo finished speaking, his ministers came to flatter him and show off their knowledge.
"Your Majesty chose the character Shoukao Weiqi, which is a combination of the character Qi from Jie Jingfu. Parents who love their children plan for them in the long run. The love of parents is heartfelt. The little prince will surely live a long and blessed life."
Bai Ningwei, standing by, was completely confused. She had no idea what the other party was talking about, Shoukao or Weiqi. After all, the name had a long history, so she wouldn't have to call him "little prince" anymore.
Xiao Duo arrived and the baptism ceremony officially began.
Everyone looked at the fish-dragon transformation basin on the table, their minds abuzz with thoughts, knowing how much the emperor valued this prince.
The bathtub is carved from golden nanmu wood, in the shape of a bean curd, painted with gold lacquer, and inlaid with a copper basin.
The basin's bottom is carved with rolling waves extending up to the rim, and four carp are carved in relief, the largest of which occupies one side alone, forming the body, tail, and dragon head. The dragon head raises its head upwards, its whiskers drooping slightly, as if it is soaring into the heavens.
This basin symbolizes that the child who bathes in it will be successful in the future, a treatment that other princes and princesses have never had.
Lady Anguo, Xiao Qi's grandmother, scooped water into the basin with a spoon, while the others took out golden lotus flowers, golden peanuts, golden rice dumplings and other auspicious symbols to add to the basin.
The wet nurse held Xiao Qi close to the bathtub, wet her hair with water, and rubbed her hands, feet and buttocks.
After completing this process, the Prince of Anguo will come to shave his nephew's hair and preserve it.
Finally, Xiao Duo gave his son a gold bracelet and a gold lock, which meant to bind and lock the child's lifespan.
After all the rituals were completed, the wet nurse took Xiao Qi back to the crib, pulled down the two layers of gauze curtains, and no longer saw anyone.
Xiao Duo took the royal relatives to the banquet, leaving Bai Ningwei to entertain the ladies of honor.
She was more than capable of handling this situation. She didn't approach those who looked down on her, but only arranged for the palace maids to take extra care of them. For those who wanted to befriend her, she would gather them together and play with them.
When I have free time, I will take a look at Xiao Yuaner and Nanny Qin.
Xiao Yuan'er stayed by Xiao Qi's crib, motionless. No one was allowed to approach except their grandmother, no matter who came.
This performance made Bai Ningwei very satisfied.
The best way to avoid accidents is to nip them in the bud. As an adult, it's not easy for her to reject every woman who wants to show her affection, but Xiao Yuan'er can.
Even if Xiao Yuan'er would be known as arrogant, domineering and unkind after the full moon banquet, so what?
As long as nothing unexpected happens today and she doesn't get into trouble, her goal will be achieved.
As for taking advantage of Xiao Yuaner's eagerness to protect her brother, she didn't feel the slightest bit of guilt.
Whoever's child it is, they will feel sorry for. It is normal for her to take extraordinary measures after receiving such a hot potato as Xiao Qi for no reason.
