Ning Wanyin thought for a moment, "I think all the Zhaoyi are good people. But now that Mo Shi has murdered the princess's mother, I think we can't let the concubines in the harem think that just because the mother is dead, you have the opportunity to raise her child."

"Otherwise, there will be more fighting in the palace."

"If we want to stop this matter at its root, I think we can give the third princess to the Queen Mother to raise. What do you think, Your Majesty?"

If the child's biological mother is killed, no one will be able to inherit the throne.

Next, if there are any lower-ranking concubines like Lin Jieyu who have children, anyone who wants to snatch the child will have to think twice, because even if the biological mother is dead, the child may be sent to the Cining Palace.

They harm others and gain nothing themselves.

Instead of focusing on raising children, you might as well spend more time on the emperor in the future.

Ning Wanyin raised her eyes and looked at Helian Qi. Their eyes met. Her eyes were bright and sincere.

Helian Qi was planning to send the third princess to the Cining Palace.

Lan Zhaoyi and others thought that the emperor would choose another Zhaoyi to raise next, and that Tang Zhaoyi and Ying Zhaoyi, who had just saved someone, had great hope.

But after what happened to the Mo family, the emperor would not allow any concubine to raise the princess. Otherwise, even the unrelated Zhaoyi would benefit from it, and the murder of the royal heir's biological mother would inevitably happen again in the future.

He planned to give the child to the Queen Mother.

Unexpectedly, Wanwan thought the same thing as him.

Helian Qi held Ning Wanyin's hand, his brows relaxed, with a hint of tenderness, "I think this is a very good move."

He originally gave the third princess to Concubine An in order to appease the Xue family.

Now giving it to Queen Mother Xue again has the same meaning.

As long as the Xue family does not interfere in the fight for the crown prince, the emperor will always value the Xue family.

The concubines all thought that the third princess would definitely live in Xianfu Palace. Unexpectedly, the emperor only gave two Zhaoyi in Xianfu Palace as a reward.

The day after Concubine Lin died, the emperor took the third princess to the Cining Palace in person.

I don’t know what the emperor and the empress dowager said.

From then on, the third princess was raised by Empress Dowager Xue.

After the emperor left.

Liu Zhen asked tentatively, "Empress Dowager, why did His Majesty send the third princess here? I thought it must be for Concubine Ning's two familiar sisters."

"If she were kept in Xianfu Palace, the emperor would definitely become suspicious of this case. It would have been fine if she had been walking on thin ice before, but now that she is a noble concubine, she still remains sober and rational at all times. No one in the Xue family can be her match." Empress Dowager Xue sighed softly.

This was the reason why she didn't allow the Xue family to continue making tributes, because they couldn't win the fight.

"Your Majesty, you flatter her too much. She doesn't deserve your praise at all! No matter how cunning she is, she is not even a fraction as good as the Empress Dowager." Liu Zhen flattered her.

Queen Mother Xue was amused by him. "How old is she? How old am I? How many years can I fight her?"

Empress Dowager Xue looked at the Yonghe Palace for a long time and said calmly, "Let's wait and see. The princes are still young, and there may be new people in the palace."

Liu Zhen reacted.

The Empress Dowager meant that she would give up the fight during Ning Wanyin's lifetime and would fight again when the next emperor was chosen.

The princes are still young, so it is too early to place bets. But the queen has been looking at the Yonghe Palace. Does she think the one in the Yonghe Palace has the most hope?

hiss.

Could it be possible that this little girl from a noble family could actually climb to the highest position?

…

The third princess was sent to the Cining Palace, and the harem became quiet for a while.

Perhaps because they were frightened by the shocking way in which Mo was caught on the same day, the jealous and sabotaging methods in the palace became less and less.

After this thunderous momentum again and again.

Whether they were new concubines or old concubines, they all understood one thing to some extent: if you harm someone under the nose of the Imperial Concubine, no matter who you harm, you will easily be caught.

Therefore, the concubines used more of their methods to win favor on the emperor.

The emperor went from Ganxin Palace to Cining Palace and encountered more than a dozen concubines along the way. They were all dressed up and played the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting in turn.

emperor:? ? ?

Ning Wanyin heard this and thought it was a good idea. It was better for him to work hard than for the concubines to fight each other.

The concubines in the harem spent the first month of the year in a lively and bustling atmosphere.

In mid-February, there was good news in the palace.

Among the newlyweds, Concubine Cao is pregnant.

The emperor had few children, so according to the old custom, the pregnant woman was promoted to a higher rank and became a beauty.

The next day, Wen Shutang went to Ganxin Palace to ask for an audience.

"I heard that Lady Cao was pregnant, and I was very happy. I will take care of Lady Cao..." Wen Shutang paused and added:

"Although I have no experience in childbirth, before I entered the palace, my eldest sister-in-law was pregnant, and it was me and my mother who took care of her. I have some experience in taking care of pregnant women."

"Now that I have been favored by your majesty and have been helping to manage the six palaces, I should take on the responsibility of looking after the concubines. Please allow me, your majesty!"

She is copying Ning Wanyin's approach.

Ning Wanyin's job was to take care of Shunpin's pregnancy and help her get promoted.

She is now assisting in the management of the six palaces, and if she takes care of a concubine and gives birth to a child, she can probably be promoted to the rank of concubine for her merits in assisting in the management of the six palaces and taking care of the concubines.

If she becomes pregnant again later, she will become a concubine.

Helian Qi has always had a good impression of her. Although he messed up a job once, she worked very hard and did not shirk responsibility. She also did a good job in the previous sacrifice ceremony for the Empress Dowager.

There are some abilities.

He can even take the initiative to offer to take care of the concubines. He is so virtuous and sensible, which is really good.

Thinking about the time Ning Wanyin fell ill from exhaustion last time, Helian Qi didn't plan to give the child to Ning Wanyin.

Wen Shutang's words were exactly what he wanted.

"Lan Zhaoyi is gentle and virtuous, and I am very pleased with her. I will leave Lady Cao to your care." Helian Qi praised her and ordered:

"Wang Degui, send someone to give Lan Zhaoyi several scrolls of calligraphy that I have treasured."

Wen Shutang is good at calligraphy.

This calligraphy copybook was given to her according to her preferences.

The emperor always treated those who worked for him well, whether they were concubines or ministers.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace." Wen Shutang was delighted and bowed respectfully.

In order to take care of Concubine Cao, Wen Shutang specially moved Concubine Cao to the next door of her own palace.

When the news of Concubine Cao's pregnancy spread, the concubines went to the Imperial Garden more frequently.

…

Since the emperor ascended the throne, he has never been to the summer resort - Qingyue Garden.

In the past, due to the unstable situation in the court, if he left the capital, he would definitely be sidelined by the ministers.

Now that he is in charge of the overall situation, the emperor plans to go to the Mountain Resort this summer.

Qingyue Garden is an extremely spacious garden with many palaces and pleasant scenery.

The absence could last at least a few months and at most half a year, and all the concubines hoped that the emperor would take them with him.

"Wanwan is going to accompany me. You need to take all the concubines with princes with you. The pregnant concubines and those who are taking care of pregnant women will stay behind. You can make arrangements for the rest." Helian Qi looked at Ning Wanyin and said.

Ning Wanyin nodded slightly, "I understand."

Speaking of arrangements, the list must also be reasonable.

The emperor never saw most of his old concubines, and only brought a few that His Majesty often saw.

Mainly newcomers.

In addition, there are her people.

By the end of February, the list of people going to the palace was ready.

Ning Wanyin received a message from her mother that her brother was about to return to Beijing!
