Leader Lan Palace

Chapter 147
Because of the birth of the fifth son of the emperor, Yongqi, the empress personally led Qi, the head of the inner court, to the empress dowager's palace, and saluted the empress dowager to announce the good news.

The Empress Dowager also solemnly ascended to the throne in the main hall of the Palace of Compassion and Ning, and accepted the great gifts of Liu Su, three kneels and three prostrations from all the lords.

The Empress Dowager was happy to have another grandson, but both the Empress and An Shou could see that the Empress Dowager's smile didn't take root from the face to the bottom of her heart.

Speaking of returning to Qi, even though Haigui was born in the Eight Banners of Mongolia, after all, his family background is low, and he is not the noble and worthy prince that the Empress Dowager expected.

After the ceremony, the Empress Dowager returned to the Shoukang Palace with all the dignitaries of the inner court. The Empress Dowager took off her gown when she went to the bedroom, and changed into ordinary clothes before coming out to meet each other.The empress dowager who changed into normal clothes was like an ordinary mother-in-law, with a more benevolent atmosphere.All the heads of the inner court breathed a sigh of relief.

The queen stood up and saluted in person: "My son, this gift is for Concubine Yu and Yongqi. Because Concubine Yu is not yet full moon, I cannot come to salute in person. Concubine Yu and Yongqi pay their respects to the Empress Dowager, and wish her peace and tranquility."

The queen mother smiled while holding the hookah, and raised her hand to help: "Okay, okay. Ai Jia'an. Hurry up."

For a while, all the empresses above the concubine were given seats, but the queen stood on the side of the empress dowager's kang to serve her personally.Concubine Xian watched, and couldn't help but glance at Fengge standing beside her.Fengge would agree, and squeezed a smile.

The Empress Dowager talked to the Empress herself: "Have you prepared the rewards and appearances that Xiao Manyue should bestow?"

The queen replied with a smile: "Responding to Ernie's words, the ministers have already spoken to the emperor and are ready to go. According to the rules, when nobles give birth to princes, they will be rewarded with 100 taels of silver and 200 horses as gifts on the occasion of the full moon; but the ministers are thinking, the emperor Having conferred the honor of Hai Gui as Concubine Yu, I thought it would be appropriate to give [-] taels of silver and forty horses as a concubine's reward. I don't know what the Empress Dowager thinks?"

The queen mother also nodded and smiled: "The queen's words are very suitable for Ai's family. Concubine Yu comes from the Eight Banners of Mongolia, and her status is incomparable to others. It should be given according to her concubine's position."

Concubine Xian laughed when she heard the empress dowager's words.While drinking tea, he covered his mouth and said to Fengge: "What identity can't be compared with others? The Eight Banners of Mongolia are just better than those women in coats and Han women. If you have to talk about the identity of the Eight Banners of Mongolia, It must be her ancestors. Her ancestors came from the Horqin Grassland, but she herself came from Nanyuan Haizi."

"Who are the people in Nanyuan Haizi? Those are just guarding Haizi and hunting animals for the emperor. The eunuchs used in the previous Ming Dynasty are the most low-level eunuchs~~ Even if they are used in this dynasty, they are also righteous bannermen. But how is it better than Bao Yi? The empress chose such a person despite hiding it, which really surprised me."

The Queen saw it, and said with a smile: "Seeing that Sister Xian is talking so happily, I don't know what she is laughing at? But what did the Palace or the Queen Mother say that made Sister Xian find it funny?"

Concubine Xian narrowed her eyes and stared at the queen coldly.However, he immediately put on a smiling face, got up and saluted the queen mother: "The fifth elder brother was born safely, and the concubine is a concubine anyway, so it is natural to be happy. Seeing that the queen mother is also smiling, is the queen's master unhappy?" ?”

The queen smiled and raised her eyebrows: "As the middle palace, all the children in this harem are children of this palace. When they learn to speak, they have to call me mother, so I am naturally happy. Concubine Xian is not Fifth elder brother's mother has been with her for many years but has never given birth, so I am worried that Concubine Xian will not be able to understand the feelings of being a mother."
