Rong'er said in his heart: Just tell yourself, don't forget what you've said, don't be jealous, don't... Don't... Please don't...
On the fifteenth day of the first month, the empress dowager had a rare moment of interest, so she gathered all the women in the palace to enjoy the banquet in the palace. On the fifteenth day of the first month, the empress dowager had a rare moment of interest, so she gathered all the women in the palace to enjoy the banquet in the palace.
In the palace, only concubines and concubines were allowed to wear the Python Gem for daily use. The ranking was always at the side of the empress dowager, the empress dowager, and the emperor, with the right head being the imperial concubine, while the left side was the Imperial Noble Concubine Yi. According to the time of entering the palace and the time of promotion, Rong'er was placed at the right side of the imperial palace, where the imperial concubines were the most senior concubines.
As for the concubines and concubines, they were seated at the bottom of the table. They were the ones with status, and were ranked first among those below the nobility. She was only a month away from the date of birth. The bustling and lively environment made one think of many things at the same time. Sitting at the head of the court, facing the women who held the lower positions, she had a dreamlike feeling that at that time, she was only a small palace maid, and she clearly remembered that at that time, she could only follow beside the empress and look at Xuan Ye from afar. But now, she was already sitting high up in this palace, on top of it, she no longer had to look at the emperor from far away. It really wasn't a dream …
A few days ago, her eldest daughter entered the palace, she saw her eldest mother, and after her eldest daughter died, her eldest mother's body was very healthy, looking at her now at the noble Imperial Concubine, her tears kept flowing, and she kept sighing. Her eldest daughter died too early, and didn't see her daughter struggle to live up to her expectations, sighing about her own uselessness, not leaving any men for the Gai family, and although her daughter was famous for her family, she was unable to make any progress. Rong'er always felt that her eldest daughter loved her very dearly, and her eldest daughter only gave birth to her. He looked at his daughter, who was standing beside him. She was a princess of the Great Qing Dynasty, and was even more noble than his first wife. He hoped that she could marry a good husband, and this little regret in Rong'er's heart would be able to make up for it.
All the noblemen, all the guests, and all the concubines had to pay their respects to the empress dowager, the empress dowager, and the concubines. The last people to pay their respects were Tong Xiushan, Dingya, and Mingru, who had entered the palace last year. The three of them had special statuses and temporarily did not have official titles.
Actually, looking at these women who had concubines and concubines, their fates were also different. For Ling Xiu-er, Yin Ruo Lan, Yi Chang Zai, and Ma Chang Zai, these people had all entered the palace early in their lives and were now middle-aged like Rong'er. However, they did not manage to leave a man and a woman behind, so their positions in the palace were destined to be in an ordinary state in their entire lives.
That day, the Emperor was in high spirits and chatted and laughed with everyone. After everyone returned to the palace, the various palaces were all waiting for the emperor to change his cards in the evening, and Rong'er was no exception as well. After everyone returned to the palace, the various palaces were all waiting for the emperor to change his cards in the evening, and Rong'er was no exception, and he had always been waiting in the palace.
After a long time, Little Qing came in and saw Rong'er sitting at the table without saying a word. She softly said, "Just now, the consultant had sent a message that the emperor had flipped through the cards of the Imperial Noble Concubine Yi."
Rong'er sat there without saying anything, and Xiaoqing didn't either. The room was very quiet, but Rong'er suddenly smiled and said, "Help me wash my face and come in. I've been tired all day, so I want to rest early."
"Mistress, you …" Are you all right? " Xiaoqing hesitantly and worriedly asked, while Su Ya lightly sighed before bringing the water in.
Rong'er smiled and shook his head. "What will happen to me? Is it just because the Emperor overturned the Imperial Noble Concubine Yi? Aren't you looking down on your master? Isn't it natural for the Emperor to turn over the Imperial Noble Concubine Yi's cards? Do you still want your master to have all the good things? " Rong'er chuckled. Her tone sounded urgent, as if she was speaking to Little Qing, and also speaking to herself.
At this moment, Su Ya brought in some water and changed the topic. She said softly, "Princess and Little Brother A have been playing for the whole day. They are tired and have rested since early in the morning. Master should also rest early."
"I'm really tired." Rong'er nodded, while Su Ya and Xiao Qing waited on Rong'er to wash and change.
As she lay on the bed, Rong'er gently pulled the quilt up to cover her face. Only then did she realize that her tears had quietly slipped, as if she had been wrapped in warmth yesterday. Her tears simply fell without a sound. She didn't know what had happened to her. She didn't want to cry. She really felt that everyone should be favoured by the Emperor, but … Why did tears still fall?
A few days later, Eastern Palace once more spread the happy news that the Imperial Concubine Wen was pregnant. The empress dowager was very happy as she gave the Imperial Concubine Wen a big reward, and Rong'er went to pay respects with a happy expression on her face, as if she had always been happy as a mother. This expression really fit the proverb: Feng Shui cycled, and she can no longer have her own child, but other people started to give birth to princes and princesses one after another.
The child was very healthy, but there was a trace of disappointment on her face. Rong'er knew what she was feeling, it was because she was a princess, after all, a noble was not considered young anymore, and the number of times the emperor saw her decreased, so the chances of her giving birth to a dragon child in the future was much smaller. The chances of a princess bringing honor to her mother were far less than the chances of a princess giving birth to her.
When she was young, she could be considered a beauty amongst her concubines at the same age, but she also received the love of the emperor, and her stomach was strong enough to give birth to two princes, but in the end, she was still an unlucky person. The two children had both died long ago, and in the end, they still did not have a prince.
