Wind rises time and space gate
Chapter 347 The choice of concubine
He Yi's family is also an official. Of the four beauties sent to the imperial mausoleum from the palace, only Yingyue was born as a slave. The two people who tried to leave before had more connections at home and had already found a way to escape.
He Yi's family was not originally an official.
Her father was a low-ranking clerk in Jingzhao Mansion with no rank, and her brother was just a soldier guarding the city gate. Later, through the Eastern Palace, he sent He Yi to the imperial mausoleum. Because of He Yi, her father was promoted to the ninth rank Lord Bo, and her brother was also promoted to the ninth rank city gate officer.
The family finally had official status, but in a capital city where a falling brick could hit several noble people, this status was really nothing.
But this real benefit is indeed due to Heyi.
Originally, He Yi did not come back from the imperial mausoleum, so the family did not think too much about it, but since she returned to Beijing with the King of Yue, the family's thoughts have become alive again.
Sister-in-law He Yi nodded matter-of-factly, "Sister, the news is true. Your brother got the news from the East Palace, saying that the emperor and empress had already decided on the candidates. In addition to the main concubine, there are two side concubines. The decree will be issued soon!"
Sister-in-law He Yi was anxious. Is this girl stupid?
The situation of King Yue was known to the whole world. It turned out that he was in the imperial mausoleum, and his family didn't say anything about He Yi's lack of ambition. But now that the King of Yue has acquitted himself and returned to Beijing, He Yi has also accompanied him to endure hardships in the imperial mausoleum. Why can't we strive for this sharing of joys and sorrows?
"Sister, look at your niece," He Yi's sister-in-law pushed her seven or eight-year-old daughter in front of He Yi.
"Your niece is going to get married in a few years. With a family like ours in this capital city, what kind of kiss can we give her?" But if her aunt gets face in the Yue Prince's Mansion, then the situation will naturally be very different.
The family also wanted to experience the feeling of a chicken and dog ascending to heaven.
He Yi was surprised and confused by the news brought by her mother and sister-in-law. The King of Yue never expressed any intention of taking over the house.
She glanced at her confused niece, remembered the attitude of the King of Yue, and said to her mother: "Mom, I made it very clear to you yesterday that the King of Yue has no intention of this matter. Now that the palace has selected a candidate, I'm afraid My status is not low, so I’d better not get involved in it. When the time comes, I beg the prince, please refer to an ordinary family and be a real wife. Isn’t it better than this?”
He Yiniang just wanted to dig open her daughter's head to see if there was paddle paste inside.
"Are you stupid? If there is no news about your father and brother, I will let you go. But now that the King of Yue wants to marry the main concubine and the side concubine, why can't he accept you? After all, you are the one who suffered with him in the imperial mausoleum Yes, a concubine can’t get it?”
She had heard that the palace had only selected three, but the number of concubines had not yet been determined!
Isn't that right, is it reserved for her He Yi?
If you go out to be someone's wife, even if you can give birth to ten or eight children, what's the point! Could it be better than being the concubine of the Yue King? Would you like to have more dignity when you go out?
Her family's clothes were just sent to serve the King of Yue, and both his father and brother could benefit from it and be promoted to official positions. If they became the father-in-law and brother-in-law of the King of Yue, how many more levels should they be promoted to?
By then, the family will be serious and respectable people in the capital. Who will dare to look down on them or yell at them?
He Yiniang and her sister-in-law brainwashed He Yi. The family has taken care of her, and it's time for her to repay the family.
Sacrifice me alone, make everyone happy, protect the whole family, and bright and glorious days are just around the corner! How can it be done by wearing lotus clothes?
The same is true for Yingyue on the other side.
The situation of Yingyue and Heyi is different. She was born as a slave and was sold back and forth since she was a child. She was later selected to be sent to the imperial mausoleum. When Donggong asked her what she wanted, she thought of her mother and several girls who were suffering at home, so she asked Donggong to help take care of them.
As a result, Queen Shen arranged for her whole family to be married to the Shen family.
After hearing the news, Yingyue's mother and He Yi's family came to visit.
They had just come yesterday, and He Yi's family could not persuade He Yi. After returning, they got news from the palace, so they bewitched Ying Yue's family to come together to convince them again.
If they don't believe in the concubine's name, they won't be moved. Yingyue pursed her lips the whole time, only listening but not speaking. Her mother and several younger sisters talked about all kinds of benefits but remained silent.
She had had enough of being a slave over the years, and she thought her life would be difficult when she was sent to the imperial mausoleum, but unexpectedly it gave her the happiest time.
As long as she obeys the instructions of the King of Yue, she will be free both physically and mentally. The King of Yue will also be generous to his servants. If she does a good job, she will be rewarded with enough silver. She had already saved a large sum of rewards, and planned to ask the King of Yue to find a match in the future so that she could become a real wife.
Even if she is married to the steward of Prince Yue's Mansion, she will be very good, and she can still work as an errand in Prince Yue's Mansion.
Ying Yueniang's mouth was dry, but when her daughter didn't say a word, she sat sulking. Yingyue's younger sisters took turns to persuade her, "Sister, I heard that the concubines were also given royal jade certificates. They are not the kind of concubines in the homes of high-ranking officials who can be beaten and killed."
Yingyue and her sisters were tired of being slaves, so they thought they could become masters one day. Now that their sister has the opportunity to become the mistress of the palace, why should she refuse?
It would be great if it were them.
"Sister, as long as you are not the head wife, there will be people above you who are oppressing you. You have to look at other people's faces at all times. My sister is quite respectable around the King of Yue now. In the future, whether she is accused of being the head wife of others or staying in the palace as the chief steward. , are all excellent. I will be able to take care of you when the time comes..."
Yingyue's mother was so angry that she had a headache, "As a concubine, wouldn't you be able to take care of your girls better?"
What's the benefit of being accused of marriage by the King of Yue and being pointed out to the steward of the palace! It’s not about looking at the face of the master of the palace!
"Look at your mother and I, I am your father's wife, but look at how your father treats mother! How he treats you guys! If you don't tell me, he will sell me and your sister!" Yingyue's mother burst into tears as she spoke.
Did the daughter get stained by something unclean in the imperial mausoleum, and that's why she had these confused thoughts?
Yingyue pursed her lips and said, "Mom, I will take care of you in the future."
"Are you stupid? Are you stupid?" Yingyue's mother beat Yingyue, crying and scolding her. Yingyue still didn't change her mind.
At noon, the two sent their families off and stood at the door for a long time before turning around and entering the house.
"Yingyue, what do you think?" He Yi asked.
Yingyue sighed, "Being a concubine is not that easy. I think it's good to stay in the embroidery room."
He Yi was a little surprised and was slightly stunned.
"What about you, He Yi?"
He Yi pursed her lips and said, "I don't know. My mind is very messed up. I won't go back to the embroidery room. I will go back to the room to rest first."
Yingyue watched her leave. I was about to lift my legs to go to the embroidery room. After thinking about it, I turned around and went to the Prince's Office on the West Road.
Go to the door and say to the guard: "I'm looking for Lord Sima."
