Rong'er thought to himself: [There is a rule of survival in the palace. When you are favored by the royal family, especially when your position is very low, you will inevitably be suspected by others. However, as long as you don't think about it too much, no one can do anything to you.
Soon, Rong'er got used to visiting the empress dowager every day and chatting with her. She and the empress dowager were still the same as before, the emperor would occasionally issue orders to her, and of course, to others.
According to Rong'er's knowledge, she had always agreed to enter the palace for so long, so she probably hadn't received the favor of the emperor. Because she had always agreed to stay in the Eastern Palace Imperial Noble Concubine Yi s' palace, Rong'er really didn't know much about her, but she had always heard that she often promised to play the flute, and according to Xiaoqing's inquiries, the emperor had coincidentally heard her promise to play the flute one night when he went to see the Imperial Concubine Yi. Her agreement to play the flute attracted the emperor's attention as well. Actually, all of the imperial concubines had been favored by the Emperor before. Because of the frequency of the emperor's visits, and because the women were all at a young age, their chances of success would naturally increase as well.
Therefore, there was now a new argument in the palace. With the concubines in the main palace being pampered, there would be more chances for other women in the palace. Therefore, it was especially important to live in one of the chambers.
After all, there was no reason for Rong'er's Imperial Concubine to come and see her agree. It was just that Rong'er knew that she was born into a palace, and for the past few years, she had not spoken about her identity with anyone who had agreed to her request, especially with respect to those who were pregnant, she would personally visit and take care of them.
Rong'er looked around the room that Chang Xie had agreed to stay in. It was no different from a normal room, but what was more eye-catching was a jade flute with a faint glow. It looked really pretty, like it was made from imperial jade. Next to the jade flute hung an ordinary jade green bamboo flute. Rong'er smiled and said, "I heard that little sister's flute is quite amazing. You've studied it for a long time, right?"
"No …." "No …" Chang Li's heart couldn't help but skip a beat. Ever since she was favored by the Emperor because of the flute, he had often heard her use all sorts of methods to attract the attention of the Emperor … So when Rong'er asked this question, she was a little worried. Although she knew that the Imperial Concubine Rong was a kind person, but she had never gotten to know him well before. She still said nervously, "This subject … Chenqie was just randomly bragging, calculated … "Not good …"
After all, she had heard of those rumors before, so she smiled and said, "I am just curious, you don't have to be afraid. Actually, the fact that you can win the emperor's favor with your flute is also a blessing for you, so there is no need for you to care about what others say. That jade flute was bestowed by the Emperor, right? "
"Yes, thank you Imperial Concubine Rong." Seeing that Rong'er was really very sincere, Chang'er felt less nervous. He nodded slightly, but his eyes seemed to be a little despondent as he said, "That jade flute was given to me by the Emperor."
Rong'er was a bit confused. Why was there no happiness on her face? It was just that she didn't want to ask too much, so she smiled and said, "Rest well. This is your first time. If there's anything you don't understand, send someone to ask me. You don't have to be polite with me …"
"Le'er, I've brought good food for you …" Rong'er hadn't even finished speaking when a young girl close to sixteen rushed in, carrying a bowl of soup. When she entered, she realized that Rong'er was there, so she stealthily raised her tongue and put away her smile. She said in an extremely tame manner, "Min Ru greets Imperial Concubine Rong. I didn't know that Imperial Concubine Rong was here, excuse me."
Rong'er was truly surprised. This Zhang Jianmin Ru was usually gentle and charming in front of everyone, but she never expected to have such a lively side to her. Smiling gently, he shook his head, "No worries, you've promised to bring me some good food?"
"That's right!" Zhang Jianmin no longer had the brisk voice from before and had reverted back to her usual magnanimous and virtuous appearance. She said to Rong'er, "Chenqie heard that the mountain medicine soup is very nourishing, so I specifically ordered the kitchen to cook it for Chang."
"I can't tell. You guys have a pretty good relationship with each other. Alright, since I have nothing else to do, I'll take my leave first." Rong'er chuckled as she got up and walked towards the door. When she reached the door, she turned around and glanced at Mingru. This girl seemed to be really interesting.
After exiting the Cheng Gan Palace, Xiaoqing curled her lips and said, "It's rare for little master Mingru to agree to such a good deal."
"What do you mean?" Rong'er looked curiously at Xiaoqing.
"Mistress, you don't know that ever since she had agreed to be favored by the Emperor because of the flute, a lot of people in the palace said that she was very scheming and ignored her. Imperial Noble Concubine Yi was weak and couldn't allow her to play the flute in the palace because of the noise. Little Qing confidently told Rong'er about the news she'd heard.
Rong'er nodded, the Imperial Noble Concubine Yi actually didn't allow her to play the flute in the palace anymore. Now, she understood why she did not show any joy when mentioning the flute. It seemed like the days in the future that she would always agree to would not be so easy, but … This was the way of life in this palace. Only by confronting them bravely could one live … She thought of the rumor that she had been caught … She shook her head and sighed.
"Let's return to the palace!" Rong'er got on the palanquin and lightly sighed. This was life, the life of a woman in the imperial harem. No one else could help her. Rong'er thought of that Zhang Jianmin Ru. Was she gentle and virtuous, or was she naive and lively? If today's vivacity is natural, then why pretend to be virtuous? Rong'er was a bit curious. This girl was really interesting to her …
In the blink of an eye it was winter, and on the fourth day of December, when he was six years old, Yin Qi officially left the empress dowager's palace to live with the princes at the South Three. Since he had always lived with the Empress Dowager, and the Empress Dowager came from Mongolia and spoke Mongolian, his Mongolian was much better than Chinese. Because the Empress Dowager believed in Buddha, the Fifth Brother was very benevolent and righteous.
In December, Zhongxuan Ye went to the filial mausoleum, bringing Zhang Jianmin Ru, who had just turned 16, along with the noble and the noble.
Not long after Xuan Ye returned to the palace, Dingya gave birth to a prince. The child was a full month old, and was very healthy, but Xuan Ye bestowed him with a name, because Dingya's identity as a prince could not be raised personally, and the Imperial Concubine Yi had raised Yin who was born in the Imperial Concubine Yi before. In order to make the empress dowager more angry, she was given a place in the empress dowager's palace.
Every time she looked at Dingya, she felt that she was the kind of person who was peaceful and gentle. She felt that she was the kind of person who was very happy when she gave birth to a brother, but she did not feel sad when a brother sent her away. Everyone in the palace was looking for their own position, so if she found the right place, you would not feel sad …
