Chapter 157: Rewards to the Harem

The Queen Mother didn't even think about it and said directly, "Of course that's good. It's also a way to celebrate the new year and bless my country and the people. However, it's only a few days away from the beginning of winter, right?"

"Yes, so I thought it would be better to decide today when there are many people, so as to save the Ministry of Internal Affairs from having to rush to produce what is needed."

Everyone looked at Emperor Yuande one after another, wondering if this great person would be worthy of him.

The Queen Mother also asked, "Then, does the Emperor know all those people who are going to be granted a title?"

Emperor Yuande nodded and pointed to Concubine Shu next to him, "Concubine Shu has worked hard these days and she has done a good job as the Assistant Manager of the Sixth Palace. Let's promote her to a noble concubine!"

Concubine Shu smiled and hurriedly stepped forward to thank her, "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty, but I deserve it!"

The Queen Mother smiled and said, "Because of your unhurried spirit, you should be made a noble concubine. Your Majesty has good taste!"

Emperor Yuande also said, "You have been in the position of concubine for many years. Thank you for your hard work."

"I don't have to work hard, and I am very lucky to be able to help the Emperor and the Queen."

"Well," the Queen Mother nodded with satisfaction, "Concubine Shu has a good temper. If everyone were like you, there would be less trouble in this palace."

Emperor Yuande looked at everyone and then said, "Empress Huang, do you think you can add one to the concubine's throne?"

The Queen Mother said, "Well, there are only the Golden Concubine and the Pure Concubine in this concubine position. When the late emperor was here, he wanted to complete the four corners. However, there are few people in the harem now. It is enough to add one first. As for the four corners, we can wait until later. Just add it slowly.”

"My son, I mean the same thing."

When Concubine Ling heard this, her heart was beating so nervously that she felt regretful that she had not been able to live up to her expectations, otherwise the candidate would definitely be her. There is no need to be frightened now.

Emperor Yuande looked at everyone, his eyes swept over the concubine Ling without stopping, and everyone knew that there was no chance. They thought it might be the concubine Xiang, but unexpectedly the emperor did not think of the concubine Xiang, but asked someone else, "Concubine Rong has been You're not in good health, why didn't you come today?"

The Queen Mother sighed and said, "This concubine is very weak, but yesterday she asked someone to send a pair of warm foreheads to the Ai family. I must have embroidered her body for a long time. It was really embarrassing for her. "

"Then let her do it, and give her some happiness as well."

The Queen Mother agreed, "Yes, I hope she will be well."

Seeing this, Concubine Shu hurriedly stepped forward and said, "I would like to thank the Emperor and the Queen Mother for their kindness on behalf of Concubine Rong."

"Well, you should pay more attention to her in the future. After all, they all come out of the dormitory," the Queen Mother instructed,

"Yes!" Concubine Shu responded hurriedly.

Emperor Yuan De looked at the remaining people standing, all of whom were not very favored, so he pointed out four of them, and promised that Chang Zai would be promoted to noble status, but he did not choose to be promoted to concubine.

After all, only the concubines and above are considered serious masters. There is no fixed number for the nobles below. They can only be called mistresses, and it is up to them to be promoted casually.

Among these four people was Shen Ruochen, but no one paid attention to his promise to be promoted to permanent residence. Even the nobleman was very dissatisfied with him. He thought that one of the people who would be promoted to concubine this time would be himself, but he never expected that the emperor would Didn't even have a choice.

But looking across the way, Guarjia's Kang Guiren, who entered the palace with him, felt a little more comfortable. The emperor didn't choose her either! It’s good to choose no one! Anyway, I am more favored than her!

Kang Guiren opposite had already clearly seen the expression on He Guiren's face, and couldn't help but despise him, why did the Queen's family choose such a fool to enter the palace? All the thoughts in his heart were reflected on his face. He was really stupid. of!

I don’t even think about it. The Nala family has already given birth to a queen and a prince. How can the emperor designate a concubine to the Nala family? In this life, I will be able to confer a concubine position that is worthy of heaven, but I have to wait until the day I grow old. Now... hmph, what are you thinking about?

It is said that he will be favored, but I heard that... Kang Gui people are full of contempt and serve others with sex, how long can they be good?

Kang Guiren was very calm and understood very well that for him, although the emperor did not always come, he still respected him, which was a good thing and there was no rush. My own Ama has long told me that preserving one’s own life is the most important thing.

Now that the personnel had been decided, the Queen Mother said to Emperor Yuande, "This is really a happy event. When new people come in next year, the palace will be even more lively. The emperor wants to add a few more grandsons to the Ai family. ah!"

"I will try my best," Emperor Yuande said with a smile, "This year has been full of turmoil, but they have all been dealt with, so it is pretty good. People from the Qintian Prison also said that looking at the sky, the weather will be smooth in the coming year, and it will be a good year! "

"That's because the emperor governs well," said the Queen Mother. "The emperor manages everything every day, so that the people of the world can be blessed!"

At this time, everyone stood up one after another, and Shen Ruochen hurriedly followed, but what to say at this time, he only heard others say, "Your Majesty, the sky is filled with prosperity, and the world is peaceful and the people are safe."

Shen Ruochen followed behind and also spoke, but mostly kept mumbling, for fear of getting into trouble if he said something wrong.

"Okay, okay, the Chinese New Year will be very lively this year. Concubine Shu, please take the trouble. The queen is not in good health, so you have to organize the New Year." Emperor Yuande said in a good mood.

Concubine Shu hurriedly agreed, and Shen Ruochen thought to himself: It seems that everything went well before, so his father should be able to come back soon.

Soon, when it was time to kneel and pray, Emperor Yuande left, and the Queen Mother took everyone to the ancestral hall in Shoukang Palace to kneel and pray.

This kneeling sutra is also divided into three, six or nine levels. It is necessary to kowtow to the ancestors, and the Queen Mother also kowtows devoutly.

When it comes time to kneel down and recite sutras, the Queen Mother is the Queen Mother and she is so old. She cannot really let the Queen Mother kneel down for several hours, right? So the Queen Mother sat cross-legged on the mat.

this is necessary.

The eldest princess was waiting on the queen mother, serving tea for one moment and lighting incense for another. Besides, she was a princess returning to court, so it was not easy before. She sat cross-legged and chanted sutras, which was what she should do.

Shen Ruochen grimaced, looked at his poor knees, and thought sadly: Just kneel on your own, but why should other nobles and above kneel in the house, while people like him kneel in the yard outside and chant sutras?

This is a strong blue and white stone. Those who know it are chanting sutras and praying for blessings, but those who don’t know it think it is a violation and are kneeling here as punishment!

Why?

Shen Ruochen wanted to cry but had no tears. He had known that reciting sutras would have to be divided into three levels, so he would have brought the "kneeling down for comfort" with him. When he went back tonight, would this leg still be a leg? I still have to serve the emperor, my God!

Even the old scalpers in the field can't use it like this!

When the others weren't paying attention, Shen Ruochen secretly stuffed the hem of fabric under his knees to make it softer. His knees could only hurt on their own. Fortunately, you can kneel down while chanting sutras, and you don't have to kneel so straight. Otherwise, by the end of the day, I'm afraid I'd have to finish it all.
