Chapter 1679 Happy to See Her

Banmei immediately served tea to Concubine Xin.

Concubine Xin smiled slightly at Ruoyin, who was at the top, "I haven't seen you for a few years, but the Empress has not changed at all, she is still so dignified, elegant, and majestic."

"This is what I'm going to say about you. After all, you are a person who loves to cultivate your body and mind. After a few years, you are still the same." Ruoyin and Concubine Xin praised each other meaningfully.

After some courtesies, Concubine Xin got down to business, "Your Majesty, this concubine is here on the orders of the Emperor to return to you the ledger and keys for managing the harem."

After finishing speaking, the two maids behind her put the two boxes on the table in the room.

Although Ruoyin had made an agreement with Fourth Master a long time ago and knew about it, he still said officially, "I've been recuperating in the Yuanmingyuan these years, so I'll ask you to do the chores of the harem."

"The empress is serious, it's what the concubine should do." Concubine Xin smiled, "It's just that the right to manage the harem has always been yours. If you weren't in the Yuanmingyuan, this job would not be yours. Concubine, now that you are back in the palace, it is only fitting that this matter be handed over to you."

After saying that, Concubine Xin stood up and said respectfully: "I will return everything to you, and this concubine will leave now."

Her words and deeds are still the same as before, indifferent and with a good sense of proportion between words.

Ruoyin didn't know Concubine Xin very well, so she didn't stay any longer. She gave a faint "Yes" and signaled Concubine Xin to step down.

Concubine Xin blessed herself and saluted, and left Yongshou Palace.

Not long after Concubine Xin left, a court lady came in from outside and handed two brochures to Ruoyin.

"Your Majesty, the Ministry of Etiquette has already selected the auspicious wedding day for Eldest Brother and Second Elder Brother, please take a look at it." The maid said.

Brothers' marriage, of course, can't be done casually.

Just from the auspicious day, ostentation, bride price, etc., it takes time to buy.

Ruoyin flipped through the two brochures, and the elder brother's wedding is scheduled for September this year.

But the second elder brother's marriage was somewhat unexpected to Ruoyin.

Although, she knew that the second brother was younger than the eldest brother, and the marriage must be behind the eldest brother.

But in her expectation, the second elder brother should also get married this year.

The royal family of the Qing Dynasty got married early, and the elder brother had a special reason before, so it was shameful to delay getting married at this age.

Even at the second elder brother's age, it's time to get married.

But this brochure says that the second elder brother will not get married until February next year.

Ruoyin asked the maid in puzzlement, "Why do you have to wait until next year for the second elder brother's marriage?"

"Returning to the empress, Qin Tian, ​​the supervisor of the Ministry of Rites, has done the calculations and said that it is not appropriate for the marriage of the elder brother and the second elder brother to be held in the same year. He also said that even the two brothers in the folk have a lot of taboos when they get married. , saying that she was afraid that the marriage would conflict." The maid replied.

It sounded reasonable, so Ruoyin suddenly realized and nodded, "Well, that's it."

When people in the royal family get married, they all have to choose auspicious days.

Brothers' marriages are also calculated by the Qin Tianjian according to the horoscope of the birth date, which is an auspicious day for the zodiac.

These are areas that she doesn't understand at all, so she doesn't care about them.

At the same time, when Concubine Qi of Changchun Palace knew that Ruoyin had started to manage the harem again, she was so angry that she reprimanded and vented her anger on the slave.

In the hall of Changchun Palace, a room full of servants kneeled.

But at this time, the fourth elder brother, Xiu Mu, came to pay her respects.

However, the fourth elder brother is not stupid, as soon as he entered the courtyard, he heard Concubine Qi scolding the slaves there.

In addition, there was another slave who knelt on the ground in the hall.

Just seeing this scene from a distance, the fourth elder brother immediately turned around, planning to come back later to say hello.

However, Concubine Qi saw Si elder brother turn around and leave before entering the house from a distance.

Then he shouted at the back of the fourth elder brother: "Why are you leaving before you come into the house?"

Hearing this voice, the fourth elder brother turned his head, smiled embarrassingly, turned around and walked towards the hall.

When he entered the room, he smiled shyly and said, "Emiang, didn't my son see you reprimanding the slave, so I don't want to disturb you?"

As he said that, he even gave Concubine Qi a slap, and sat down in the armchair beside her.

Concubine Qi looked at Si elder brother with hatred.

Nowadays, the queen takes advantage of everything.

The right to manage the harem fell into the hands of the queen again.

The key point of this year's show girl election, the emperor betrothed the best of the show girls to the elder brother and the second elder brother.

Now that I see the fourth elder brother, I can't help but educate him.

"This year's show girl election, the emperor betrothed all the daughters of important ministers to the elder brother and the second elder brother. Especially the elder brother, just Ge Ge in the backyard is the daughter of a second-rank official family. It's unheard of, unheard of!"

The fourth elder brother knew that his mother-in-law was jealous, so he didn't care about it and said: "Brother, he is the eldest son, so it is naturally different. If Huang Ama chooses some unworthy ones for him, it will also embarrass our royal family, right?" ?”

Concubine Qi was not happy, "What do you know, if it wasn't for the fact that the sons born in this palace didn't support me, leaving only a minor elder brother like you, otherwise it wouldn't be their turn for the two elder brothers of Yongshou Palace! "

"..." The fourth elder brother listened to Concubine Qi's sad story with a blank expression.

Because of these things, he heard it all the time since he was a child, and his ears are calloused!

Just thinking about it with his feet, he knew that his mother-in-law was daydreaming here again.

But the fourth elder brother didn't speak, and Concubine Qi was dissatisfied, and insisted on forcing him to chat with each other.

Concubine Qi said to the fourth elder brother: "People live in this world for the sake of breath. It's not that I'm talking about you, but you are also fighting for me. Let me have a good face in this harem. Don't just idle around all day long."

Fourth elder brother: "..."

Concubine Qi: "You are not as good at reading and learning martial arts as my elder brother. You are not good at playing, but not as good as my second elder brother."

"Look at the second elder brother. On the surface, he was playing for fun. Last month, he was fighting cocks in the capital. Just for fun, he ran an errand for Huang Ama, leading to a few murders, and investigating When you get out of the cockfighting workshop, someone puts money on you, and then look at you, where have you been playing?"

Fourth elder brother: "My second brother just happened to meet those unlucky guys and picked up a loophole."

The second elder brother had told him about this matter, but Er Niang was talking about it here.

Concubine Qi: "I don't care, if you have the ability, you can give me a chance!"

"..." The fourth elder brother was speechless, rolling his eyes wildly in his heart.

"What did you just say?" Concubine Qi was forgetful, and the fourth elder brother didn't remind her, but the maid at the side replied: "Your Majesty, you just said that the fourth elder brother is not as good at playing as the second elder brother."

Concubine Qi: "Yes, when it comes to being able to play, you are not as good as the second elder brother, and when it comes to hard work, you are not as good as the third elder brother. In terms of appearance, you are not as good-looking as the fifth elder brother. Just talk about it, and you will know how to play." What, just like you, can you not let me worry about it?"

She is straightforward and worried about the future of her son.

If she said that she had only given birth to such one, she would give up.

The key point is that she had two sons before, but she didn't support them.

He always fantasized that if those two sons were still alive, it must be better than this.

"Did you belittle your own son like this?!" After listening to Concubine Qi's analysis, the fourth elder brother felt bitter, "After all, I am not as good as all brothers."

"..." Concubine Qi thought that what she said was all the truth, and there was nothing wrong with it, "Don't think that I don't know that you have gotten close to the elder brother and the second elder brother in recent days, and you are right. Your Fifth Sister is very nice, do you think that they are in the palace, so you just try to please them?"

"No!" Brother Si stood up angrily.

Concubine Qi didn't care, she said enough was the most important thing, "Recently, there are rumors in the palace that the fifth princess was not born to the emperor, so don't praise her stinky feet!"

"Emiang!" The fourth elder brother couldn't bear it anymore, so he yelled, "What are you talking about again, the son and the eldest brother and the second brother are brothers, so it's hard to see that they have to be like enemies, so you Are you happy?"

"And Fifth Sister, not just me, the third brother and the brothers and sisters in the harem are all happy to see her, because she is our youngest and cutest sister, and it has nothing to do with being pleasing or not!"

"In addition, we are concubines and concubines, can we stop comparing ourselves with other people's real relatives all the time, you don't feel ashamed and panic!"

"Finally, my son has to remind you, others don't know whether Fifth Sister is Huang Ama's own, but we can't understand it very well, otherwise she can look like Huang Ama?"

"Emiang, you have to be sensible. Now Huang Ama and Huang'eniang are investigating those who spread the rumors, so don't mess around here, you'll be trapped here!"

Although the fourth elder brother is not pragmatic, the three views are still quite upright!

Concubine Qi turned her eyes slightly, "I...I didn't do this, so what's there to be afraid of?"

That's what he said, but after all, he was not as arrogant as before, and the confidence in his tone was also slightly lacking.

"Okay, my son has something else to do, so I won't chat with you." The fourth prince finished his salute and left Changchun Palace.

It was night, Ruoyin and Fourth Master found out the person behind the rumor about Ai'er's life at almost the same time.

When Ruxia quietly reported the matter to Ruoyin, Ruoyin told Banmei: "You follow me to the Hall of Mental Cultivation."

Recently, whenever there is any major matter, she and fourth master discuss it.

I heard that Fourth Master also ordered someone to thoroughly investigate this matter. Now that the matter has been found out, it is necessary to discuss the countermeasures with him.

After all, this matter concerns him too.

After a while, Ruoyin came out of the yard.

But just as she walked to the courtyard, she saw Su Peisheng entering the courtyard with a group of servants.

After Su Peisheng came in, he greeted Ruoyin with a smile: "Empress Empress, Lord Long Live said that there is a clue about the little princess, please go to the Hall of Mental Cultivation to talk about it."

This matter, although Long Live Lord can make up his own mind.

But, don't husbands and wives have to discuss things?

"Coincidentally, I am also preparing to go to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, so let's go together." Ruoyin said, and walked out holding Banmei's hand.

The Hall of Mental Cultivation and Yongshou Palace were neighbors, so Ruoyin didn't take the phoenix chariot, but walked directly there.

After a cup of tea, Ruoyin didn't ask anyone to sing the newspaper, so he entered the Hall of Mental Cultivation alone.
