Harem: Biography of Concubine Qin

Chapter 226 The Change of Concubine Hui
After this matter was decided, the emperor rewarded Chen Wenyi's lieutenants for their meritorious service, especially Yu Jie and Ouyang.

The emperor's reward to Ouyang's family is heavy, but light is also light.

He just rewarded Ouyang with an official position as chief executive, and ordered her to continue serving in the Green Camp Shotgun Team.

It seems that there is no difference, but in fact it is already the greatest grace.

In the past, she had a bad reputation in the green camp, but now that the emperor ordered her, who would dare to question her?

This is the best result.

In the blink of an eye, it was almost noon, the emperor suddenly remembered Chen Wenxin who was still waiting in the apse, and hurriedly dismissed all the officials.

Only Chen Wenyi was left behind, the emperor ordered someone to go to the apse to change his clothes, change his armor and stay for dinner.

Sure enough, as soon as Chen Wenyi entered the back hall, the emperor heard Chen Wenxin's cheers from the front.

Li Dequan said with a smile: "Your Majesty, look how happy Concubine Qin is for the Emperor's grace."

The emperor gave him a blank look, "Idiot! You have been with me for so long, why is your master so happy, you don't know?"

Li Dequan soon understood that what the emperor meant was that Chen Wenxin was not happy for being a concubine.

She was only happy to see her second brother.

He laughed, and the emperor said impatiently: "You haven't passed the meal yet, why are you laughing here?"

Li Dequan said aggrievedly: "Your Majesty, the time to pass the meal is not close yet."

The emperor also knew that it was close, but Chen Wenxin had been waiting alone for so long, she must be hungry.

Now if she is allowed to eat too many snacks to fill her stomach, she will not be able to eat in a while.

It would be better to pass on the meal earlier.

"Fool! General Chen came back triumphantly, and he was naturally hungry. I understand my servant, but you still come to talk to me?"

"Yes, yes, this servant is going!"

Li Dequan walked out quickly, the emperor simply approved the papers first, and let the two brothers and sisters talk about themselves.

Chen Wenyi changed out of the armor, and the two siblings sat together and talked.

"Why is the second brother thinner? It seems to be a little darker."

Like her, Chen Wenyi is a bean curd skin that can't be tanned. I think he suffered a lot in Horqin this time, otherwise how could he get tanned?

Chen Wenyi touched his face, "Is that so? I just wish it was darker. Why would a big man be as white as you and make the enemy laugh!"

From the time when he was suppressing bandits in Shandong, he knew that being too handsome was not a good thing for the battlefield.

One of the soldiers under his command didn't trust him, and felt that a little boy with no real skills would be difficult to command and defend against the enemy.

The second is that the enemy always takes this as an excuse to ridicule, which is very annoying.

He himself is fine, but Yu Jie is often half-dead from anger.

"I'd better be tanned and ugly, so that I can find a wife."

Chen Wenxin chuckled, "Second brother, I saw you suddenly remembered someone, guess who it is?"

"It's so thoughtless, how can you guess it?"

"I thought about it. During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, there was a handsome and beautiful general named Gao Changgong."

Chen Wenyi raised his eyebrows and said, "Are you talking about King Lanling?"

"Exactly. It is said that the King of Lanling, like the second brother, was extremely handsome. He was also very distressed. He couldn't deter the enemy when he went to the battlefield, so he wore a scary ghost mask."

Chen Wenyi dismissed it and said, "If a man wants to change his name or surname, why bother to cover it up? I will use my ability to let everyone know, and I don't need to scare people with a ghost mask."

Chen Wenxin rolled his eyes, thinking that he really didn't need to wear a ghost mask.

Although being beautiful can't deter the enemy, you can seduce the enemy's girl with her beauty.

She thought about it, and couldn't help snickering.

"What are you laughing at?"

Chen Wenxin hurriedly said, "Second brother is back safely, I'm glad."

He was unscathed, which is a greater blessing than triumph.

Knowing that she was always thinking wildly, Chen Wenyi didn't pursue it anymore.

He finally let go of a burden and fulfilled his promise to his family.

Listening to Yuge that night, Chen Wenxin was punished by Concubine Tong to kneel in the rain, lying on the bed soaked with high fever.

He once told his family that he would use his military exploits to earn Chen Wenxin a future.

Even if the emperor doesn't dote on her, he can't despise her.

Now that Chen Wenxin has been conferred the title of concubine, this is just the beginning.

In the future, there is still a long way to go.

……

Chen Wenyi made a triumphant return, and a concubine imperial decree was announced to the harem and the former court.

"Only the virtue of the inner court shall be followed by the imperial decree of the Empress Dowager."

"A concubine who is diligent is prudent and mature, diligent and submissive, and courteous and courteous. She is gentle and good-natured, restrains her inner self, and is virtuous. She can be a model in the harem, and she will be named a concubine Qin when she writes it. I admire this."

Everyone knows that Chen Wenxin's sudden appointment as a concubine this time is because the emperor credited Chen Wenyi's military exploits on her.

Tweeting kindness is also the practice of the ancestors. For example, if a concubine is favored and promoted, you can also tweet kindness to your parents.

It's just that Chen Wenyi's push was thorough, he didn't keep anything, and let the emperor make his younger sister a concubine.

The more it spread, the more evil it became, and it made Chen Wenyi look like a madman protecting his sister.

"It's spread all over the court. The emperor wanted to make Chen Wenyi a first-class general, but he pushed it away!"

"He insists on making his younger sister the concubine!"

"A first-class general and a concubine, who doesn't know which is more important? How stupid!"

"This Chen Wenyi is really a role model for brothers in the world, how many men with younger sisters are ashamed!"

……

These rumors spread from the previous dynasty to the harem, Chen Wenxin couldn't help being amused, and told the emperor as a joke.

The emperor said: "It's not your idea, why do you have the nerve to laugh?"

It turned out that before Chen Wenyi came back, the emperor had discussed with her, fearing that Tong Guowei's party would object to directly mentioning the matter of Tweeting Concubine.

Chen Wenxin thought for a while, and told the emperor what Mr. Lu Xun said.

"The Chinese temperament is most fond of reconciliation and compromise. For example, if you say that this room is too dark, you need to open a window here, and everyone will definitely not allow it."

"But if you advocate removing the roof, they'll come to terms with it and open the windows."

After hearing this, the emperor thought it was right, and praised it as a wise saying.

He asked Chen Wenxin, who is this Lu Xun?Can I be recruited into the court as an official?
Chen Wenxin could only vaguely say that this Lu Xun was a character in a storybook she had read, not a real person.

Chen Wenxin often said some strange words, the emperor had never heard of them.

One of them said Gege in the palace, Gege's name is actually Little Swallow?
There is also one who talks about the love between cousins ​​of everyone, and the cousin who cries at every turn is Chen Wenxin's favorite character.

The emperor has never heard these strange words, but it doesn't matter, as long as the words make sense.

The emperor learned the words of this character called Lu Xun, so he first told the ministers that he wanted to make Chen Wenyi a first-class general, hereditary.

All the ministers panicked when they heard this, and they all came to persuade him.

At this time, Chen Wenxin was changed to be a concubine, and no one dared to object.

Thinking of Tong Guowei's deflated face, and obediently coming up to say a word of second opinion, the emperor found it funny.

Chen Wenxin didn't take it seriously, "I just said a sentence in the notebook, Xuan Ye's own idea, what cares about me?"

She did not encourage the emperor to propose Chen Wenyi as a first-class general, nor did she expect that the emperor would be willing to speak with this title.

What if the courtiers don't object?
Didn't the emperor really want to bestow the highest rank of Qing military general on Chen Wenyi?
"You have an idea, but I don't dare to let you touch the affairs of the government. You can manage the harem for me with peace of mind."

He didn't want someone with a heart to read a book, saying that Chen Wenxin was involved in politics in the harem.

Speaking of managing the harem, Chen Wenxin couldn't help frowning.

Although she was promoted to the position of concubine, she was ranked with Concubine Hui and Concubine Tong.

Concubine Hui is still in charge of the affairs of the harem, and she is still in charge of the harem.

It's just that after she was promoted, she felt that Concubine Hui had undergone some changes.

Seeing that she hesitated to speak, the emperor said, "Is there anything else that I can't say?"

After the two of them experienced all kinds of misunderstandings in the past, they no longer hide from each other.

Chen Wenxin gritted her teeth, and still told the truth.

"Does Xuanye feel that Concubine Hui has changed recently?"

When she said this, the emperor also noticed, "Indeed, Concubine Hui's mood seems to have opened up a lot recently, and she often smiles. It seems that she has also carefully dressed up, and she looks much younger than before."

She gave the emperor a white look.

"That's not what I'm talking about! I think Concubine Hui is finally willing to take care of things recently. She used to be the one who hated taking care of the little things in the harem the most."

For example, the emperor ordered Yigui to move to the West Side Hall of Yongshou Palace, but Yigui refused to move.

In fact, the emperor's decree is considered generous, no matter how much she moves, Yongshou Palace will only have her as the master after all.

The main hall is vacant and no one lives there, so there is no empress to take care of her.

Compared with her, Zhang Guiren is also a noble person, but she has to continue to live in the shadow of Concubine Tong of Chengqian Palace.

Mrs. Yigui was not satisfied, so the palace servants came to Yikun Palace to report the matter.

Unexpectedly, Chen Wenxin didn't have time to deal with this matter, and he had already heard about Concubine Hui summoning a nobleman to Changchun Palace to reprimand her.

This is not in line with Concubine Hui's usual style.

When the emperor heard this, he realized that things were not as simple as he thought.

He thought that Concubine Hui had gotten some beauty-beautifying prescriptions from where, and it was a good thing that her whole body was refreshed.

From what Chen Wenxin said, it seemed that Concubine Hui wanted to seize power.

"Concubine Hui has been by my side for more than ten years, and has my eldest son, Elder Brother, who has always been a noble character..."

Chen Wenxin interrupted the emperor, "I didn't say Concubine Hui was bad, I just..."

She was hesitant to say it before, because she was afraid that the emperor would think that she had malicious intentions towards Concubine Hui.

It's not like she doesn't know that the emperor respects Concubine Hui.

Seeing her anxious look, the emperor hurriedly comforted her: "Don't worry, I know you have no malicious intentions."
