Jinwei joins hands in rebirth: villains can also eat at the table

In October of the 25th year of Qianlong's reign, Concubine Ling gave birth to the emperor's fifteenth son in the Old Summer Palace. The emperor, who was on the autumn hunt, immediately planned to return to Beijing.

"Your Majesty, look, this is our fifteenth prince."

When the emperor returned to the capital, Yanwan was still in confinement. She wore a headband and held the child in her arms to show the emperor.

The emperor was exhausted from the journey and had a look of fatigue between his brows.

He went straight to see him as soon as he returned to the Old Summer Palace.

Looking at the baby in the cradle, the emperor felt inexplicably close to him. He raised his hand to play with the baby's little hand, and put his other hand around Yan Wan's shoulders.

"You have worked hard, Concubine Ling, and you gave birth to a prince for me. You have been by my side for many years, and I should reward you well."

"It is a blessing for me to have the Emperor's favor. Look, the child looks so much like you... Has the Emperor decided what to name our child?"

Yanwan smiled softly, her eyes full of tenderness as she looked at the child.

Upon hearing this, the emperor looked up and thought for a moment, then said the name he had carefully selected and thought of long ago.

"How about calling him Yongyan?"

Yongyan was the name of the fifteenth prince.

"Yongyan? What a good name! Your Majesty is a man of extraordinary literary talent. Yongyan, yan means beautiful jade. I hope Yongyan can be like jade in the future and become a gentleman..."

Hearing the same name as in her previous life, Yan Wan felt no emotion at all, and just praised it as a routine matter.

"With your guidance, I am at ease."

After the two chatted for a while, the emperor returned to his palace with somewhat tired steps.

He pinched his brows, then made up his mind and called Jinzhong over.

"Jinzhong, announce my decree."

The emperor personally took out a box, inside which lay two volumes of imperial edicts.

These are two copies of the imperial edict he prepared.

One was prepared when she was pregnant, and the other was prepared on the way back from the autumn hunt.

The two contents are completely different.

He thought about it, hesitated for a long time, and finally changed it.

"Whoo."

Jinzhong took one of the imperial edicts cautiously. He could vaguely guess the emperor's intention.

Along the way, I don’t know whether it was out of joy or nervousness, but my hands holding the whip were sweating.

The late autumn wind was a bit biting, and it made people feel cold when it hit their faces. Jinzhong was completely unaware of it and strode towards her.

A large group of people arrived at Tiandi Yijiachun, where Concubine Ling lived.

"Greetings to Her Majesty the Concubine Ling."

"Eunuch Jinzhong, what are you doing?"

Yanwan looked at Jinzhong, met his eyes, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.

As soon as the emperor left, he came back. Looking at the imperial edict in his hand and his happy expression at this moment, Yan Wan vaguely guessed something.

Jinzhong's eyes curved with a smile. He suppressed the surging throbbing in his heart and spoke softly to Yanwan in front of everyone.

"Your Highness, I am here to convey the Emperor's order. Please kneel and receive it."

Hearing that it was an imperial decree, Chunchan and Lancui did not dare to be careless. They hurriedly helped Yanwan up, and the people serving Yanwan knelt down together waiting for the decree.

Jinzhong slowly unfolded the imperial edict, looked at its contents, and read aloud word by word with a movement in his throat.

"By the providence of Heaven, the Emperor proclaims: Imperial Noble Consort Wei, respectful, gentle, docile, virtuous, and virtuous... deeply beloved by me. Recognizing her years of hard work in raising a son and maintaining the harem, I hereby appoint her Imperial Noble Consort and grant her the surname Wei Jia. After her death, my mother's family, for their contributions in raising a daughter... The entire Wei family is hereby elevated to the Bordered Yellow Banner... This is my decree!"

The complicated edict of enthronement was read out word by word from Jinzhong's mouth. When it was all read out and the lingering sound faded away, Jinzhong's eyes were already wet.

He had never dared to imagine that he would personally read out the imperial edict promoting her, but now he actually did it.

In his previous life, he had also had such a beautiful dream before he died. Li Yu was sent to the temporary palace without anyone's approval, and he himself became a favorite of the emperor. He was extremely happy when he knew that she was named Imperial Noble Consort.

At that moment, she thought that it was finally his turn to announce the decree for her.

Unexpectedly, the emperor ordered her to be eliminated.

Now I have finally got what I wanted.

He has seen her difficulties over the years.

Finally, all the hardships come to an end.

"Your Majesty, I thank you for your grace..."

After Yan Wan paid her respects, Jinzhong handed the bright yellow imperial edict to her with trembling hands.

Jinzhong's eyes were clear. He helped her up and said something in a voice that only the two of them could hear.

"Congratulations."

Congratulations to her and to myself.

In this life, she lived for herself, and she also lived for herself.

Yan Wan looked straight at him, and with her fingertips on his body, she pinched his forearm imperceptibly.

She raised her red lips slightly, as if she wanted to say something, but no sound came out.

Jinzhong understood.

Yes……

Congratulations.

These two words made him feel a little overwhelmed.

Yes, we should be happy together. Two people with the same mind are one, so such things should be happy together.

Jinzhong could not hear the joyful sounds in the palace or Chunchan's voice rewarding the accompanying palace maids. He could only hear the beating of his own heart and the words she recited.

Congratulations.

When he reacted, he found a handful of golden peanuts in his hand. It was Yan Wan who put them in his hand herself, and her hand still retained her warmth.

"Please accept this little gift, sir. Have a cup of tea before you leave..."

Jinzhong smiled and nodded, and was led by Chunchan to the side hall to drink tea.

When no one was paying attention, he sneaked back to her palace.

There were only two of them in the hall at this time. Looking at Yanwan's somewhat haggard face, Jinzhong couldn't help but reach out to touch it.

"Master Ling, you have suffered these days..."

A tender gaze passed between the two of them.

Yan Wan took his hand, leaned into his arms and murmured, "It's not bitter, it's just that you've lost weight again."

She sighed and put one arm around his waist, and her thin waist became a few inches thinner than before.

After becoming the general manager, his life is no longer as free as before.

Last autumn, I was always worried about her condition. We were both very busy, so we had to reduce our workload.

Jinzhong carefully wrapped his arms around her, letting her lean against him. He lowered his head and pressed his cheek against her forehead. Skin to skin, his slightly hot body temperature flowed between them. Yanwan closed her eyes and savored this moment of tranquility.

"That's right. When your master is not around, I feel like I've missed you so much..."

He murmured, his eyes incredibly soft, looking at her as if she were a treasure.

No matter how valuable the treasure is, he will not exchange it.

A gentle kiss fell on her forehead through the headband. My heart, which had been restless for a long time, only calmed down the moment I smelled her scent.

After being separated for so long, Jinzhong finally realized that he could no longer live without her.

She is everything to him, and only she can make up a complete Jinzhong.

He thought silently in his heart.

"Don't worry, there will always be a chance to stay with me in the future."

She leaned against him tiredly and responded casually after hearing his words. Although it was a light sentence, she had thought about it thousands of times in her heart.

She has been worried about him these past few months.

"Alright, I'll wait. My Lord is incredibly powerful, and I've been waiting for this moment..."

The sweet fragrance of her body lingered on his nose, and Jinzhong was indulging in it and replied softly.

But the good times didn't last long. He had to go back and report to the emperor and couldn't stay any longer.

Before leaving, Yan Wan had something for him to take back.

"This is?"

Looking at the box on the table, Jinzhong was a little confused.

"The top one is his, the bottom one is yours."

Yanwan spoke succinctly, then turned to Jinzhong. Seeing the smile on his face when he heard that there was also a share for him, she also smiled brightly.

After hearing her words, Jinzhong raised his hand to check. Inside the box was a black bear fur hat, adorned with coral, turquoise, and other jewelry. And underneath...

After studying it for a while, he found a secret compartment at the bottom of the box. He opened it and took out a plain pajamas.

"You're bored during pregnancy, so take it home and wear it."

The top is very simple, with only a small black snake embroidered on the collar.

The figure is strong and lifelike.

The embroidery on it was a new technique she had learned, and others could not see it.

"Thank you, Master Ling, I like it very much..."

His voice trembled slightly as his fingertips carefully stroked the small snake on it. Although it was not made of precious material, he could feel her deep love under the delicate stitches...

For fear of exposing his tracks, he had not given many such gifts since he became the chief steward. He preferred this to those expensive rewards.
