Harem strategy

Chapter 64
Concubine Zuo Jing hurriedly said: "I don't know about this concubine. Since entering the palace, I have only met my mother a few times. However, when I was young, my father often heard that my concubine's third uncle The eldest son has a bright future."

"But this is just a joke between my father and my family, so it's not accurate." Concubine Zuo Jing laughed.

The emperor nodded, but didn't say anything. He looked at the second prince for a while, and then went back from Chonghua Palace.

Concubine Zuo Jing was disappointed for a while, she is now out of confinement, so she can go to bed, even though her natal father passed away, concubines in the palace don't pay attention to filial piety.After all, there are so many people in each concubine's family, if you really want to keep them one by one, you will have less chance to see the emperor, so you will definitely not even be able to see the emperor.

Because my father passed away, the emperor came to visit me, so if I didn't leave today, I would comfort myself at that time, and it made sense, but why did the emperor leave?

Is it because you produced it yourself and it became ugly?There are many young concubines who have not given birth in the palace. Concubine Jing sighed in her heart, but fortunately she has a prince in her hand, which is better than those who have not given birth.

On the side of the Empress Dowager of the Compassionate Ning Palace, due to the death of Concubine Wang Xian, the health of the Empress Dowager fluctuated from time to time.

Because of the queen mother's illness, the emperor will not invite anyone to sleep with him during this period.

Even when Li Jialuo's new residence, Changchun Palace, was moved, there was no big fuss, but the emperor and queen rewarded some things, and then people in each palace also gave some congratulatory gifts.

Li Jialuo is now seven months pregnant and is expected to give birth in June, which is the hottest time of the year, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs will ensure that there is enough ice for Changchun Palace.

And Zhang Guiren's birth date was more than a month later than that of Li Jialuo's. Zhang Guiren lived in the place where there was a soft concubine in the main hall, and Jinghe Palace should also take care of her.

Li Jialuo moved to the Changchun Palace, but he was alone. After all, the Changchun Palace was only repaired once, and no one lived in it before.

In the emperor's harem, there are few concubines. Concubine Rou and Concubine An all have a palace, but they are not in Changchun Palace.

Since Concubine Wang Xian passed away, the Yonghe Palace is now unoccupied and vacant. It is estimated that someone will be promoted to the first palace master in the future, and the Yonghe Palace will also be used.

The Empress Dowager's illness has been going up and down, and the emperor finally announced that people from the Wang family came to visit.Cheng Engong's wife, Mrs. Chen, came to the palace to visit this aunt. Of course, she also brought her youngest daughter Wang Mingya with her.

After seeing Mrs. Cheng Engong and her little niece, the queen mother felt much better. By the way, she left the little girl of the Wang family to stay with her aunt in the palace for a few days.

Wang Mingya was only thirteen or fourteen years old, and she was very beautiful. The Queen Mother liked this niece very much. She didn't have a princess herself, so she treated her niece from her natal family like a daughter.

In addition, she was ill because of the death of Concubine Wang Xian, so she really hurt this little niece to the bone.

The fifteenth day of every month is a fixed day to greet the Queen Mother. Li Jialuo did not have the qualifications before, but now because she is pregnant, she is specially allowed.

Although she has a big belly, paying respects to the queen mother is also essential. Fortunately, there is a soft sedan chair to sit in, so it is not too hard.

When he arrived at the Palace of Compassion and Peace, he greeted the queen mother and saluted, and Li Jialuo sat in his seat according to his position.

Instead, he glanced at it, and there was a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl sitting beside the Queen Mother, who was joking with the Queen Mother.

Empress Zhao was also joking around, and the Queen Mother said: "Seeing you, Ai's family feels much better. Why hasn't Concubine Jing come over today? Ai's family hasn't seen the second prince for several days."

Empress Zhao hurriedly said: "Reporting to my mother, the second prince has a low fever today, and he is asking the imperial doctor to come over to see him. Concubine Jing has already told her daughter-in-law in advance, and I will ask for leave on her behalf."

The Queen Mother was in a bad mood when she heard this, and said, "What do the people in the Tai Hospital do? They can't even cure a child!"

Then he said to Li Jialuo: "Concubine Shu usually pay more attention to her body and what she needs to eat. Even if you talk to the queen, don't feel that you can't open your mouth. As long as you give birth to a healthy grandson for Ai's family, it is better than anything else. Ai's family sees Your belly is getting bigger too, from now on, the Ai family will not ask for your blessings, and the heirs are the most important thing!"

After hearing this, Empress Zhao said: "The queen mother is considerate, and the son-in-law also told the concubine Shu that there is no need to go to the minister's side to pay his respects, but the concubine Shu knows the rules, and the queen mother must come here in person."

The queen mother also laughed when she heard this, and said: "The Ai family knows that you are all filial, but the heirs are still the most important thing."

The Queen Mother didn't talk too much nonsense, she still had her own things to do, so the concubines all went back from the Palace of Compassion.

The Queen Mother said to Wang Mingya: "I met Concubine Shu today, how do you feel?"

Wang Mingya said with a smile: "Auntie, Concubine Shu is beautiful, Mingya is very envious."

"You are no worse than her. Aijia hopes that you can stay by Aijia's side in the future, and you will not be lonely in this palace." The Queen Mother patted the back of Wang Mingya's hand, "Your cousin can't see through herself, she always thinks The son and daughter have an affair, so it can only end in that way in the end, the Ai family hopes that you will be different from your cousin. Whether the Wang family can prosper for decades depends on you."

Wang Mingya said with a smile: "As long as I can be with my aunt and make my aunt happy, Mingya is willing to do anything."

"Good boy, the Ai family knows that you are a person who knows everything, but don't disappoint the Ai family's expectations." The queen mother said.

"Master, have you seen the girl from the Wang family?" Amber hurriedly asked when Li Jialuo came back.

Because this was the first time my master saw this Miss Wang, not to mention them, even the people in the palace were guessing whether this Miss Wang was about to enter the palace.

Although it is generally drafted to enter the palace now, because of the relationship with the queen mother, there is nothing wrong with sending them directly to the palace.

"I see." Li Jialuo sat down, going out now is really not easy, fortunately her feet are not swollen, otherwise it would be really uncomfortable.

"Master, is the girl from the Wang family good-looking?" Amber asked.

"Of course it's beautiful." It's not beautiful, and it won't be able to stay in the palace with the queen mother.

"This Wang's family regards the palace as her own vegetable garden. If one is gone, one will be given away. If you don't send it, you won't be able to get married?" Amber was very angry. Her master was about to give birth. Still thinking about giving it away, it's really shameless!

A girl from the Wang family will be backed by the queen mother as soon as she comes in, maybe she will be a concubine again, comparing other people's hard work to scum.

In addition to having a child in the future, what status does my little master have?
Li Jialuo laughed when he heard this, "Humber, don't be so excited, there are too many places to give away people in this palace, look at you, and you will be angry when you hear it, so don't the other people in this palace be angry? No Do you know that girls from the Wang family are threatened by them as soon as they enter the palace? The taller people on the top stand against it, and it’s not our turn. Moreover, this girl Wang is not yet old. I think that is waiting for the next round of drafts , more than two years of work, anything can happen, let's worry about that in advance, what are you doing to make yourself uncomfortable?"

In fact, it is indeed the case. Now the idea of ​​the Queen Mother is to let the girl from the Wang family meet the emperor. The emperor has to go to the Palace of Compassion and Ning every day, so naturally he can meet the girl from the Wang family.

As for whether the emperor likes it or not, I believe there will be no problem with the Queen Mother.

And following the Queen Mother, if the emperor has any preferences at that time, she will definitely tell the girls of the Wang family, and she will also tell the girls of the Wang family that the current layout of the harem and the general temperament of everyone, the girls of the Wang family have taken advantage of the right time and place. If she is as stupid as Concubine Wang Xian, she will definitely have a good future.

It's just that the queen dowager did this because she wanted to help the royal family. Would the emperor be happy?Will the queen be happy?

Especially the empress, only one concubine Wang Xian left in front, and now all the spare tires are here, her status is threatened again, can the empress not be in a hurry?
A concubine Wang Xian who can't bear children, even if she is a bit domineering, is fine, after all, there is no future to follow, but a girl from the Wang family who can bear children will definitely make the queen take [-] points of heart to maintain her position.

The deposed queens in history have never had a good end. Just imagine, if the Wang family girl really enters the palace and gives birth to a prince, will she want to go further so that her child can be justified?
There is also a big helper, the Queen Mother, and the Wang family. The queen's throne will definitely be taken for himself.

Therefore, before entering the palace to give birth to the prince, the girl of the Wang family has no threat to Li Jialuo, and it depends on whether Li Jialuo can give birth to the prince. If it is a princess, then there is no threat to the royal family. If it is a prince , It also depends on whether the girl of the Wang family can give birth to a prince herself.

Of course, this also involves the issue of fighting for favor. As long as the girls of the Wang family don't take their children's personal relationship as seriously as Wang Xianfei, there will be no obvious intentions to deal with other favored concubines. Miss Wang's style?
I believe the Queen Mother will tell this girl of the Wang family what is the most important thing. Competing for favor is just a matter for a low-ranking concubine. With her status, there is no need to compete for favor. The emperor will also give her and the Wang family face.

Concubine Wang Xian just couldn't understand this point, that's why she made so many mistakes, and finally paid for herself.

A lesson learned from the past, since the girl from the Wang family was selected, how could the Queen Mother not tell her this truth?
The only thing I don't know is whether the Wang family is still cultivating a younger girl, and if this one fails, they will be sent in.

The emperor is in the prime of his life, at least he still has a few years to live. If you really look at the long-term, you have to think about the battle for the reserve position in decades.

But first you have to live through these decades to say these things.
