Chapter 141
Wanxi helped Yuqin into the room and comforted her in a low voice: "Sister, don't be careless, the emperor will never forget my sister. The harem is not sealed at will, there must be a fixed time; and the canonization ceremony is cumbersome. In advance, the Ministry of Rituals needs to hand over the crown and uniform, draw up the book, make the jade or gold book, seal treasure... all these will take a lot of time."

"Besides, there will be the Eight Banners draft next month, and the emperor will definitely confer the position on my sister at that time, so don't worry about my sister."

Yuqin patted Wanxi and tried to smile: "I also understand the truth. However, the crown clothes, book seals, and even canonization ceremonies are only available for concubines and above. In my capacity, the first seal is only for promises, and I will always be there. , how can there be so many complicated rituals? If the emperor wants to seal it, he can seal it casually. It is the nobleman of Chengqian Palace, so it is still a noble person. Didn’t the emperor also grant it when he said it?"

Yuqin lowered her head: "In the end...it's just that I can't be favored. I have also heard that in the palaces of Emperor Kangxi and Yongzheng in the previous dynasty, there were people who had served in bed but had no status all their lives. Waiting for the late emperor After his death, they can only live together in the Shousan House together. It is not as good as the empress dowager who has the main hall of the Cining Palace and the Shoukang Palace; it is also not as good as the empress dowager who can live in the Shousan Palace; Living together in the Shousan Institute...the word 'Suo' is quite different from the word 'Gong'."

Yuqin turned her head and looked, with tears in her beautiful eyes: "Wanxi, maybe I will have such a fate in the future. I am a Han woman. If I don't end up like this, who else will fall into this fate?" What happened?"

Yuqin's words hurt Wanxi's heart, and Wanxi clenched Yuqin's hand tightly: "No way. The future is still long, why did my sister say such depressing words early? What about Han women, pure concubines and empresses are the same She's also a Han girl, isn't she a concubine, and her family has entered the Zhengbai Banner of Manchuria by order?"

Yuqin smiled and shook her head lightly: "Isn't Concubine Chun today because she gave birth to a prince? In this palace, only those who have favors can have children, and only those who have children can have a foundation."

Yuqin raised her eyes and looked far away: "Wanxi, I remember what you said to me. You said that the emperor knew it well and told me not to calculate, don't fight, and I can't fight...I waited, but I I didn't wait for anything. Now I understand better why the women in the palace fight, and why they fight by any means."

Wanxi's heart skipped a beat: "Sister!"

Yuqin smiled softly: "I like the emperor, and I also hope that the emperor will like me. Apart from liking, I am also more afraid. For this liking and fear, I have to fight."
.
As time passed, Wanxi had no choice but to press her own concerns and accompany Yuqin quietly.

The two were relatively speechless, so Wanxi brought the velvet flowers that she had made these days.

"My sister is from the south of the Yangtze River, and she is good at embroidery. She must be able to make this velvet flower, right? How about my sister teaching my younger sister, who is clumsy and can't do it well no matter what."

Seeing the familiar velvet flowers, Yuqin finally smiled: "How did you learn how to weave velvet flowers? I remember that you have been busy with weeding velvet flowers before."

Wanxi nodded: "But once the Double Ninth Festival is over, the grasses will all dry up, and we can no longer make grass flowers. The empress's master is frugal in nature, and she doesn't wear pearls and jade on her head. Except for the grass flowers, they are velvet flowers. In the past six months, the queen's master Treating me so well, I have nothing to repay, so I thought about trying to make a few velvet flowers for the master. Even if the master usually does not wear me to make it in the palace, I am still happy in my heart."

 See you tomorrow~
