Abandoned Concubine's Promotion

Chapter 169
After hearing Concubine Hui's question, Emperor Jing couldn't help but sighed, he couldn't remember how long he hadn't come to see Concubine Hui.

In the harem, besides Su Qingyan, there is a second special existence, and that is Concubine Hui Dong of Zhongcui Palace.

If you want to talk about how special she is, apart from the fact that she doesn't need to greet the queen every day, another thing is that she doesn't need to call herself a concubine in front of Emperor Jing.

Not only that, in front of her, Emperor Jing never called me, but called himself me.

Of course, it is not because of Emperor Jing's feelings for her that she is so special, but because she is a special existence.

This starts from when Emperor Jing was still the prince...

At that time, Concubine Hui was not Concubine Hui, her father belonged to the faction that supported Emperor Jing.

For a prince to become an emperor, there must be a struggle. If he does not ascend the throne, he may lose his life.

As the son of the empress, Emperor Jing didn't need to do this, but the concubine favored by the former emperor also had a prince.

The late emperor's favoritism made the status of Emperor Jing, who was still a prince, in jeopardy. Not only that, even the queen mother who was the empress at that time was likely to be abolished.

It was because of this that Emperor Jing married the daughter of the Xiao family's prostitute, and Shen Lanzhu, who is now Concubine Rong.

However, in order to help him ascend the throne, Concubine Hui's father died because of this, but before he died, he asked that he would not marry Jingdi's daughter, but that he must marry Jingdi, so that Jingdi could get Dong's rights.

In this way, Concubine Hui, who originally didn't want to marry Emperor Jing, finally married Emperor Jing.

Emperor Jing still remembers that on the wedding night, her expression was hopelessly calm, and she asked herself one thing, that is, she didn't want to be his woman.

In the future, if Emperor Jing ascends to the throne, she wants to be a special existence in the harem and live quietly.

For her request, Emperor Jing agreed without the slightest hesitation. After all, her father died because of him, and he knew that she didn't want to marry him at all.

That is, since then, Concubine Hui has become a special existence. Occasionally, Emperor Jing, who is still the prince, will go to Concubine Hui's yard, but the two of them can't do anything.

He regarded Concubine Hui as a confidant and friend, and said all the things in his heart that he couldn't tell others. Every time, Concubine Hui listened patiently.

Later, when Emperor Jing came to the throne, she was conferred the title of Concubine Hui, and a few years later, in order to make her less lonely in the harem, Emperor Jing sent Princess Xin to her side.

"I don't have anything to worry about, I just want to see you." To Emperor Jing, although Concubine Hui bears the title of concubine, in his heart, she is like a younger sister.

"I'm fine in Zhongcui Palace. Thank you, the emperor, for sending Xin'er to my side." Emperor Jing didn't talk about his troubles, and Concubine Hui didn't ask too many questions. She smiled and said to Emperor Jing.

At this time, there was no one in the palace, because the less people knew about such a secret, the better.

Kang Ninghai knew about it, but he wouldn't tell it. As for Tourmaline, she would be puzzled, but she didn't know exactly what it was.

"Xin'er is with you, I am very relieved, at least don't worry, she will be like An'er." Thinking of the eldest daughter, Emperor Jing couldn't help frowning.

"I heard that Princess An was infected with poison from her mother's womb? Is it all gone now?" Hearing Emperor Jing mention Princess An, Concubine Hui asked with concern.

"Still detoxifying, but it's much better. I'm thinking about where to send her after the poison is detoxified?"

After all, she was still very young, and Emperor Jing couldn't bear to place her in Changle Palace. After all, it was his own child, and without a biological mother, the only one she could rely on in the harem was him, his father.

Of course, he was angry at Princess An's behavior at the beginning, but he also knew that someone was instigating behind the scenes, and Su Qingyan begged for mercy, so he couldn't be too harsh on such a young child.

"Could it be that the emperor wants to send Princess An to me? For me, having Princess Xin is enough. The emperor might as well choose carefully in the harem and choose a concubine with a gentle personality for her."

Concubine Hui still had a certain understanding of Emperor Jing, and she could hear what he meant from what Emperor Jing said.

"I knew you wouldn't agree. Let me think about it again." Emperor Jing once thought about Su Qingyan. In the harem, Emperor Jing didn't trust anyone except her.

However, the passing of the child was inseparable from Princess An, so it was not easy for Emperor Jing to speak to Su Qingyan.

"Your majesty, let's have a cup of tea." After listening to Emperor Jing, a smile appeared on Concubine Hui's face. She picked up the teacup and spoke to Emperor Jing with a smile.

Picking up the teacup, Emperor Jing took a sip of tea, and speaking of it, he came to Zhongcui Palace today, and there was nothing wrong with him.

"Tomorrow is my birthday, I hope you can promise me one thing." After drinking tea, Emperor Jing put down his teacup, looked at Concubine Hui and spoke.

"Please tell me, Your Majesty." Concubine Hui was a little curious. For so many years, Emperor Jing had never asked her for anything.

When Emperor Jing was still the prince, he never did it. Now that he has become the emperor, the whole world is in his hands, but he wants to ask himself to agree to a condition, which is really strange.

"The empress has been lifted from the confinement. I plan to suppress the Xiao family's influence, so the power of the harem cannot be handed over to the empress, nor can it all be in the hands of the Shen family."

Looking at Concubine Hui, Emperor Jing spoke seriously. He believed that Concubine Hui understood what he meant.

"Back then, you helped me take care of the prince's mansion. Now, I hope you can help me take care of the harem and hold part of the power in your hands."

Although Emperor Jing had told Su Qingyan that when she recovered, she would be allowed to participate in the management of the harem, but in the end, she hadn't confinement yet, so she couldn't control anything.

Under such circumstances, the only thing Emperor Jing could look for was Concubine Hui, because he knew that Concubine Hui would not be greedy for the rights in the harem, and with her help, he would be at ease.

"Your majesty really gave me a problem. You know that I don't like to be involved in the harem." Concubine Hui couldn't help sighing after hearing what Emperor Jing said, but she didn't refuse because she knew that she had to do this job. To help.

"Don't worry, your majesty, I will hold on to the rights you entrusted to me, and one day, I will hand them over to someone you can trust."

It can be said that Concubine Hui is a person with an exquisite heart, and she can tell that Emperor Jing has changed a bit.

As for where this change came from, Concubine Hui probably had some guesses, but she wouldn't say it out.

"Ake, thank you." Seeing Concubine Hui's response, Emperor Jing felt relieved, "After the Chinese New Year this year, I'll make you an imperial concubine right away?"

　There are a few more things to say, not everyone can call themselves the palace, just like Ah Qing, when she was a noble concubine, she could only call herself me in front of the palace people, and those who were higher in rank than her, she called herself As a concubine, now she has become Zhaoyi, lived in the palace, and became the lord of the first palace, so she has the qualification to call herself the palace.

　　Speaking of self-proclaimed, strictly speaking, the title of concubine is actually not what the concubines call themselves. It's just that everyone watches too much TV and has preconceived ideas that they should call themselves concubines or concubines.

　　Concubine, as a noun, used to be called a person of low status in ancient times. "Shang Shu Zhuan" said: "A servant who is lowly, a man is called a minister and a woman is called a concubine."

　　So in fact, concubines usually call themselves concubines in front of the emperor. If it was in the Qing Dynasty, even the empress would be slaves in front of the emperor. Don't blame.
