The imperial court rewarded Han's military merits, and Enzhe Jing'er was conferred a title.
There was no joy in his heart, so he begged Rong'er to avoid being a dragon pet.
In March of the same year, Zheng Jing led a military ship in Xiamen, and because of the mutual interests of both sides, they actually rose to the top of the army. In addition, Geng Zhong was repeatedly defeated during the war between the two sides, and several of them were defeated in the war, which made it difficult for Geng Zhong to deal with the enemy. Therefore, the Manchu was constantly victorious in the battle between Geng Zhong's rebel army, and in April, Geng Su, the commander of the original army, was able to destroy more than twenty thousand people in the Five Gui strongholds. The northern battlefield, early May Cha Har left four flags returned, the end of May Guangdong Guangxin, Jiangxi Rao successively recovered.
Xuan Ye knew that the war was chaotic and that the Great Qing needed Han army, so he broke the rules and promoted many of the Chinese soldiers. At the same time, he conferred the title Zhang Yong, the Governor of Gansu Province, and the General Jing Ni, Zhang Yong, as well as the title of First Class Man.
The imperial edict once again affected the harem. At the end of April, something shocking happened. Wang Jingzhi, who had accompanied Rong'er to the royal palace for eight years, was unexpectedly conferred the status of a permanent resident of the palace. Before this event, not even Xiaoqing had heard of it. Thus, when Rong'er, who had been strolling in the palace without any worries, saw Jingzhi move in, the shock in her heart could be imagined.
Wang Jingzhi was just entering the palace with the eunuch from the Internal Affairs Bureau when she raised her head and saw Rong'er. With a bitter smile, she walked up to Rong'er and said, "Rong'er, I've been banned from the palace for a long time."
"Huh?" Rong'er couldn't react for a while, and only after a long while did he come back to himself and say, "Congratulations. The things that we said eight years ago were all fulfilled today."
Wang Jingzhi lightly shook his head. With a slight frown, he raised his head and said, "I'll go back and pack up first. I'll pay my respects to my concubine before coming to see you."
Rong'er looked at Wang Jingzhi's face, but didn't seem happy at all. He lightly nodded in agreement and watched Jingzhi enter a room not far from hers. He thought to herself, Jingzhi, Chang Zai, you wouldn't be able to see her happiness at all.
"Good heavens! Master, Jing`er has actually become a small master, and even more so, has become an ordinary person! " Xiao Qing, who accompanied her, exclaimed.
Yes, Jing-er had become a minor lord. Rong'er thought back to the first night she had entered the palace, eight years ago, when she and Wang Jingzhi had made fun of each other, and everything had turned out to be true. These few years, most of the palace maids had been promoted because their father had advanced to an official position. As such, when the Emperor added grace to his daughter, did that Jingzhi's father also advance to an official position?
"Mistress, come back to your room. You've been walking for quite some time." Su Ya didn't say much, but she was always concerned about Rong'er and spoke in a low voice. In truth, she was also very surprised in her heart. After all, she had entered the palace with Rong'er and Su'er.
Rong'er sat in the room and waited for Wang Jingzhi, thinking about the past eight years, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "Eight years of time, more changes, we are sisters now, time passes quietly, the state of mind also changes, eight years later, when I think about the past again, when I'm no longer naive, thinking about how I lost the calmness and calmness I had when I entered the palace, the gains and losses I have taken seriously, but only Wang Jingzhi, who hasn't changed in eight years, living the lives of a palace maid, is this a good thing to pay for?" Now that Zhizhi was over 20 years old, getting the Jin Feng was a good thing. At least she would live a wealthy life for a lifetime.
After a moment, Wang Jingzhi came over. Xiaoqing and Su Ya, who were serving Rong'er, hurriedly bowed to Wang Jingzhi. Wang Jingzhi looked at them with a smile and nodded before bowing to Rong'er.
Rong'er smiled as he gestured for Zhi Zhi to sit on the warm brick bed. He then said softly, "I was just thinking that the joke we made when we first entered the palace had all come true today."
"Not yet." Wang Jingzhi smiled and shook her head. "We're talking about being noticed by the emperor. In fact, you're the only one who has achieved it, and I'm the only one who has managed it."
It was as Rong'er had expected. "Your father was promoted to an official position?"
"My uncle is King Timothy of Shaanxi Province. A few days ago, he became a first-rate male, so the Emperor sent my father, my father, to serve as a guard captain, while I was promoted to become a general." Wang Jingzhi bitterly said.
"No matter what, this is a good thing." Rong'er smiled and said, "In the future, you can look after each other in the palace."
"Is it a good thing?" Can I reject it? In another three years, I will be able to leave the palace. I have endured for nine years, waiting for this day to come, but now, I cannot leave. " Wang Jingzhi bitterly said, her eyes actually turning red.
"Jing'er, how many people hope to have this kind of luck? How could you …" Rong'er suddenly thought of the night he entered the palace eight years ago. Wang Jingzhi seemed to have said the same thing, "Jing`er, is there something on your mind? Remember when I was a palace maid at the Kunning Palace, you often sat at the door of your eardrum in a daze. "
"Rong'er …" Wang Jingzhi lightly shook her head, suddenly looked up at Rong'er and worriedly said, "Rong'er, all these years I've never asked you for anything. Can I ask you for something today?"
"Alright, go ahead!" Rong'er nodded. "As long as I can do it, I'll definitely help you."
Wang Jingzhi nodded. She looked to the side at Xiaoqing and Su Ya and said in a soft voice, "Xiaoqing and Su Ya, can you guys hide for a moment? Because it has to do with the Emperor …"
"Understood, masters. We will wait at the entrance. If you need anything, just call for us." Little Qing replied and left with Su Ya.
After they left, Rong'er looked at Wang Jingzhi with a puzzled expression and asked: "Jing`er, what exactly happened? "It's that serious?"
Wang Jingzhi suddenly stood up and knelt beside Rong'er. Rong'er hurriedly helped her up, but Wang Jingzhi shook her head and said: "Noble Lady Rong, listen to me, okay?"
Seeing Wang Jingzhi's stubbornness, Rong'er could only sit down and nod. "Okay, but can you sit down and talk?"
"Because Wang Jingzhi was a presumptuous request, you must kneel down and say it. I know that this matter will make things difficult for you." Wang Jingzhi shook her head.
Hearing Wang Jingzhi's words, Rong'er didn't let her stand up anymore. She nodded and said, "Okay, go ahead."
"Noble Lady Rong, actually, everyone is very clear that the Emperor likes you, so Wang Jingzhi asks you, Your Majesty, not to turn over my cards, okay?" Wang Jingzhi looked into Rong'er's eyes, which shone with a stubborn light.
"Ah?" "Why is that?" Rong'er was even more puzzled. As a woman of the emperor, how could there be anyone who didn't wish to sleep with him?
"This... Because... It is because I have hidden ailments, so it would be inconvenient for me to serve you. With so many wives in the palace, it would not even be an issue if I lost a single one of them. " Wang Jingzhi lowered her head and murmured softly, avoiding Rong'er's questioning gaze.
Rong'er knew that Wang Jingzhi wasn't telling the truth. What hidden ailment could there be that couldn't be taken care of? Rong'er looked at Wang Jingzhi without saying anything for a long time.
Wang Jingzhi couldn't hear her son for a long time, so she looked up at him, her eyes flustered. "Rong'er, I know this is an excessive request, but I can't tell anyone else about this. I can only hope that you can tell His Majesty not to turn over my cards."
"Jing`er, I know you didn't tell me the truth. I promise you that I will speak to the Emperor, but I hope that one day, you can tell me the truth." Rong'er said softly.
"Thank you, Rong'er, thank you!" Tears rolled down Wang Jingzhi's face as she spoke.
Wang Jingzhi was the first woman that Rong'er had not wanted to be pampered after entering the palace for so long. After all, the Emperor was a wise and powerful man with a handsome face, and Jing Er was special. Just like her personality that hadn't changed for many years, she was simple and elegant. But... What was the secret in her heart?
