Empress Yu Concubine Lie Wins Everyday

Chapter 270 Yongzheng 15 Years

In a blink of an eye, it has been three years.

In the mid-spring of the 15th year of Yongzheng, as soon as the emperor arrived at the Old Summer Palace, he held a grand sutra feast in the Qinzheng Qinxian Hall.

In this dynasty, the lecturers of Jingyan were known as cabinet bachelors and Hanlin bachelors who were well-educated. The six ministers and other official attendants mainly taught Confucianism to the emperor, which was a grand ceremony of the court.Such a grand ceremony will be held three times a month in spring and autumn. Since Yongzheng ascended the throne, it has been going on for 15 years, which can be regarded as a sufficient gesture.

This sutra banquet was different from usual, because Yongzheng ordered the three older princes to also attend the sutra banquet.

Concubine Mao slapped the round fan in her hand heavily, "The third elder brother is in his twenties, and the emperor still keeps him in the palace, and now he is asking him to attend the sutra feast, what does this mean?!"

Shu Jin was very calm, "It's just an observation, and it's not like the courts are listening to politics."

Concubine Mi sighed sadly, "The noble concubine can hold her breath! The third elder brother is all that matters, the fourth elder brother is what matters!"

Shu Jin said: "Both of them are older than Hong Zhou, even Hong Zhou has participated in the sutra banquet, there is no reason not to ask the two elder brothers to go."

Concubine Mao and Concubine Mi looked at each other, at this age, fifth elder brother really suffered a bit...

Concubine Mao whispered, "I heard that Li Guiren and Princess Huaike had some unpleasant quarrels."

Shu Jin thought about it with his toes and knew that Li Guiren wanted his daughter and son-in-law to help his son, but it's a pity that Princess Huai Ke and Gu Cong had a cold relationship, and they had already separated.Princess Huai Ke didn't expect her younger brother to be a good person, and with the addition of the Gu family... she was a pure minister of the emperor, how could she be involved in the fight for the heir apparent?
After coming and going, Li Guiren blamed the eldest daughter.

Shu Jin said: "It's not easy for the eldest princess."

Concubine Mao sneered and said, "I see, these three princes already have ambitions!"

Concubine Mi also said: "The third elder brother's mother's family is insignificant, and his wife's family stands by. Gu's father and son are pure and straightforward ministers, so they can't be successful. The fourth elder brother is more troublesome."

Concubine Mao's eyebrows sank: "Concubine Xi, Niu Hulu's family, if they are asking him to marry Fujin from a wealthy family, it will indeed be more difficult than the third elder brother."

Didn't Hongli in history just marry the Fucha family as his heir Fujin?

The inertia of history still exists, and Shu Jin also feels that Yongzheng will not change his son's wife and ask his daughter-in-law in his previous life to marry someone else.

No matter how much Yongzheng hated Hongshi, didn't he still ask him to marry Dong E's family?

By the way, who is Hong Zhou Fujin?

Anyway, the family status is not too high.

Shu Jin didn't have any views on the sect, nor did she think that marrying a Fujin would be enough to control her position.

For example, Yongzheng himself did not rely much on the Yue family when he seized the throne.Who will be the prince, the final decision is still the emperor.

In this era of centralization to its peak, the emperor's will can override everything else.

So Shu Jin is not afraid of Hongli marrying a high-ranking Fujin, nor will he stop him.

"The more it is at this time, the more you have to be calm." Shu Jin said firmly, "In today's Sutra feast, the emperor treats the elders equally, I'm afraid it's a temptation."

To test whether she, a noble concubine, can accommodate the princes.

Don't look at Yongzheng who is not merciless in slaughtering his brothers, but he is more worried than anyone else that the same thing will happen to his son after a hundred years.

No matter how bad Hongli was, at least she treated Hongzhou and Hongluo kindly.

"Exploring?" Concubine Mao and Concubine Mi looked at each other face to face.

After a long time, Concubine Mao asked in a low voice: "Who are you testing? You concubine?"

Shu Jin nodded heavily, "In the past three years, although the harem has been safe and sound, it is almost our world." As a noble concubine, she has no one to check and balance.

Concubine Mao's face darkened, "Isn't the concubine doing well enough these years? Even the concubine Xi under confinement in Jingren Palace has never been treated harshly! What else should the emperor have to be suspicious of?!"

The emperor was a suspicious creature, and Shu Jin was not at all surprised by Yongzheng's suspicion.Although Shu Jin did not intentionally create a situation in which only one person dominates the harem, Hong Zhou was indeed promoted to the most expensive seat among all the masters.

It has been 15 years since Yongzheng. Knowing his life expectancy, Yongzheng will only become more and more anxious.

These years, Shu Jin has also been counting the days silently. Yongzheng is getting older and older, and she is naturally happier and happier.Apart from being happy, she couldn't help worrying more about Hong Zhou's future. Concubine Xi was imprisoned. Although it was her own fault, Shu Jin and Concubine Xi's mother and son still came to the opposite end.

If he couldn't win, Shu Jin didn't think Qianlong in history would treat his younger brother that well.

She has no way out.

Hong Zhou also had no way out.

Knowing this, Concubine Mao and Concubine Mi couldn't help being anxious for her.

But the more so, the more calm you have to be.

Shu Jin narrowed his eyes, "The princes are all grown up, maybe I should find a chance to ask the emperor to restore his concubine Xi and Li Guiren to their former positions."

Both Concubine Mao and Concubine Mi stared wide-eyed.

Shu Jin smiled lightly and said: "Don't worry, I will also ask you to be concubine Mi in front of the emperor. After all, Hongxin is getting older."

She must be virtuous, and even repay grievances with virtue, in order to gain Yongzheng's trust.

But it can't be the only way to benefit others. Over the years, Concubine Mi has been passive and sabotage, neither competing for favor nor holding on to favor, so she really has no way to help her up.

Now, it is indeed a good opportunity.

The concubine Mi hurriedly said: "Mother, it doesn't matter whether the concubine is a concubine or a concubine, but how can you ask for titles for the Li family and the Niu Hulu family? Are you not afraid of raising their ambitions?"

Shu Jin said lightly: "Their ambitions will not be wiped out because of their low status. Rather than waiting for the emperor to mention this matter, I might as well take the initiative."

Take the initiative to plan the next step.

All she has to do is make no mistakes.

As long as she doesn't make mistakes, she can win for sure.

And the person she needs to deal with with all her heart is no longer the Li family or the Niu Hulu family, but Yongzheng!
Concubine Mao sighed quietly, "It's really not easy for you to be a noble concubine."

Shu Jin smiled and said, "Who is easy in this harem?"

After seeing Concubine Mao and Concubine Mi away, Shu Jin began to deal with palace affairs. Now that there are fewer people in the harem, it is naturally easier to deal with it.

At this time, Zhang Shoufa approached and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the concubine Xi in the palace has secretly contacted Niu Hulu's family again..."

"Oh?" Shu Jin raised his eyebrows. Over the years, Concubine Xi has never broken contact with her mother's family. In recent years, she even got in touch with Niu Hulu's family.

"It's good to watch, don't stop me." Shu Jin still ordered like this.Concubine Xi's behavior, even she couldn't hide it, how could it be possible to hide it from the emperor.

It was precisely because of these petty actions that Yongzheng never forgave Concubine Xi and imprisoned her for more than four years.During this period, the fourth elder brother pleaded for mercy many times, but to no avail, and was reprimanded by the emperor many times.

Zhang Shoufa said in a low voice: "This time, Concubine Xi wants Niu Hulu's family to help him as a matchmaker..."

Have you started planning Hongli's marriage?
Shu Jin raised her eyebrows, okay, it's going to be exciting next time.
