Chapter 191 Envoys Enter the Capital



Lian Rui wanted to roll her eyes when she heard this. You live in Liushuang Pavilion, do you want to be close to the master?

I really can't tell.

"Liushuangxuan has not been repaired for a long time and is not suitable for living. Your palace is leaking, so I will send people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs to repair it." Ning Wanyin refused directly.

There was no way she would allow outsiders to live in Yonghe Palace.

When Concubine Shu was in power, she arranged for concubines to live in Liushuangxuan at will. But now the power is in Ning Wanyin's hands, if she doesn't want anyone to live there, then no one can move in.

The usual response to palace leaks was for the Ministry of Internal Affairs to send people to repair it.

The side hall is not just a room for concubines to live in, so there is no need to move the palace. Unless the entire palace is burned down...

Yao Jieyu choked. The palace she lived in didn't leak at all, so this was just an excuse to move...

"Your Majesty, I hope to be closer to you..." Concubine Yao thought that Ning Wanyin didn't understand what she meant, so she made her words more clear.

Ning Wanyin refused again, "I always like quietness and don't like to be disturbed."

"But I am your relative..." Concubine Yao took out her bargaining chip.

The most ideal candidate for marriage for the Yao family is Ning Wanyin's brother.

However, he was sent out of the capital to recuperate at a young age, and Lady Shou'an repeatedly rejected the marriage.

The same thing happened when the Yao family wanted to marry someone from the same clan as Ning Wanyin.

I heard that the eldest branch of the Ning family helped the fourth branch a lot, and the two families were as friendly as one family. Ning Wanyin also privately presented the fourth branch's cousin to the emperor, and was very supportive of the fourth branch.

The information obtained by the Yao family was not wrong.

When the old lady was still alive, she favored the fourth room. Didn't she help a lot?

The young lady who was being discussed for marriage was Ning Ziyin's biological sister. Ning Ziyin was disliked by the emperor and no one dared to marry her. The Ning family sent her to a temple for spiritual practice three years ago.

In order to establish a noble relationship with the Shangshu Mansion, the fourth branch of the Ning family deliberately boasted that their family and the imperial concubine in the palace were as close as one family when the Yao family asked about it.

"So what?" Ning Wanyin asked calmly.

In this harem, even sisters can become enemies, let alone my cousin’s sister-in-law?

Yao Jieyu originally wanted to take advantage of Ning Wanyin to gain favor, but seeing Ning Wanyin's straightforward refusal, she couldn't help but feel a little angry and threatened, "It seems that my brother's marriage will not be successful..."

If there wasn't a royal concubine, why would the Shangshu Mansion marry into the fourth branch of a baron's mansion?

If Ning Wanyin didn't help her win favor, then their Yao family would not marry into the Ning family!

Lian Rui wanted to laugh. Who are you threatening with the fourth room's marriage? What does this have to do with our master?

"As for marriage, just let it take its course." Ning Wanyin responded calmly.

Seeing that Ning Wanyin didn't care at all, Yao Jieyu could only hold back her anger and reluctantly said, "Then I will not disturb you, Your Majesty. I will take my leave."

After coming out of Yonghe Palace, Yao Jieyu immediately said to the palace maid beside her:

"Tell father that the marriage with the Ning family is cancelled. Ning Wanyin is an ungrateful person and we are not willing to cooperate with her."

The maid consoled him in a low voice, "Master, look at Tang Zhaoyi and Ying Zhaoyi who have taken refuge with her. They haven't slept with her in several years. She is so jealous that she naturally dares not let you move into Liushuang Pavilion."

"No flower can stay in bloom forever, and no one can live forever. She is so intolerant that when the emperor stops favoring her, she won't even have a helper in the palace." Concubine Yao sneered:

"I want to see how long her favor can last."

"She is not the only one who is favored in the palace. Concubine Lan is quite favored by the emperor, and Concubine Jing's position is stable. Let father give it more consideration."

The palace maid accepted the order and the master and servant walked away gradually.

People's minds are fickle. One more ally means one more danger.

Ning Wanyin didn't want to add any more variables.

He rejected the Yao family's plan cleanly and directly.

A few more days passed.

The envoys from the Northern Desert came to the capital and presented their credentials.

The emperor issued an edict: Three days later, an autumn hunting banquet will be held in the Zijin Palace.

Afterwards, Wang Degui went to various places in the palace to announce the imperial decree and inform the concubines who would accompany the autumn hunt.

In addition to Ning Wanyin, there are Tang Miaoling, Fu Jiaoyi, Xue Jinshu, and Yao Jieyu.

The Marquis of Changping accompanied the Northern Desert envoys to the capital to report on his work. The emperor still gave Tang Miaoling this grace to meet her father.

Xue Jinshu was treated the same way the Xue family always had.

The position of Concubine Yao was originally occupied by Concubine Ye.

The emperor always brought the daughters of nobles, so naturally he also had to bring a daughter of a civil official to appease the civil official. The Minister of Industry has recently won the emperor's favor, and Ye Jieyu is his expected candidate...

But she was punished with house arrest, so Yao Jieyu took her place.

The reason why Fu Jiaoyi was brought along was to save the face of the late Queen Mother. Since the people from Queen Mother Xue's family went, the people from the late Queen Mother's family had to go as well.

Each of the concubines that the emperor took with him on the autumn hunt had political significance and had little to do with his personal preferences.

The list spread...

Among the concubines in the six palaces, some are happy and some are envious.

This year's autumn hunting is different from the previous summer and winter hunting, and there are foreign envoys!

Even though the concubines taken away by the emperor this time could not sit on the throne like the imperial concubines and receive audiences from envoys, being able to attend the ceremonies would also make their names known to foreign countries and represent the glory of the family.

Ye Jieyu, who was under house arrest, lost her temper when she heard about this.

Calculating the time, it’s about time.

"Someone, go and get the imperial physician! I have a headache." Concubine Ye ordered.

This time when she entered the palace, her mother gave her a treasure.

At the beginning, her father doted on a concubine, which made her mother worried, so she used a folk remedy to fake a pregnancy pulse...

He then pretended that his concubine had caused him to have a miscarriage, and the concubine was sent to the farm.

The only flaw of this method is that the pregnancy pulse can only last for two months and will be exposed after a while.

Ye Jieyu decided to use this trick since she was confined to her room. Ning Wanyin punished her to copy the palace rules, but could she still copy them when she was pregnant?

Then I will deliberately bump into Ning Wanyin and pretend she has a miscarriage...

Dyed Maple Pavilion.

The first person to come was Imperial Physician Zhou, who confirmed that Concubine Ye was pregnant.

We invited Dr. Zhao to come for a follow-up visit.

Whenever a concubine in the palace became pregnant, it would be confirmed and announced by Zhao Yuanpan after he took her pulse.

Zhao Yuanpan was the most skilled in this. When he was practicing medicine in the folks in his early years, he had encountered many fake pregnancy pulses caused by strange folk remedies, and he had his own way of distinguishing them. Since no one in the palace dared to fake pregnancy, no one knew that he had this ability, except the emperor.

After carefully checking her pulse, Judge Zhao said with certainty, "Congratulations to Concubine Ye! Concubine Ye has been pregnant for more than a month!"

"I want to see His Majesty. I want to tell His Majesty the good news!" Concubine Ye pretended to be excited.
