But it doesn’t matter. The child has just been born. We can wait until they are one month old and then confer the title on them.
He is the emperor, the ruler of the world. No one would be stupid enough to contradict him no matter what he wants to do as long as it is not excessive.
However, there is still one thing that needs to be dealt with. Zhang Jia's family background is relatively low. Now that Mu Sili has become a concubine, it is time to give them a higher status.
"Take her inside and take good care of Concubine Min and the princes and princesses. I will come to visit them another day."
"yes."
Everyone in the Zhangjia clan gathered together waiting for news. The higher Mu Sili's status, the greater the benefit to them. They all hoped that she would be fine.
"Hai Kuan, after Li'er gives birth and the full moon comes around, the Emperor will probably promote her to a concubine, right?"
"Uncle is right. If Li'er can be made a concubine, we will not be much worse than the Wuya family."
He felt uncomfortable when he thought about how Wei Wu had brought people to threaten him and asked him to pass the message to Mu Sili to avoid favor.
Fortunately, she was very capable and found out that Yu was pregnant that day, otherwise the Zhangjia family would have been completely suppressed.
"That's true, but Li'er hasn't given birth yet. Even if the emperor really makes her a concubine, we can't show too much joy, otherwise it will be too eye-catching and easily arouse people's fear."
“Yes, but when Consort De was promoted to a concubine, Uya received a promotion from the Emperor. I wonder if our Zhangjia clan has the same blessing.
If we can raise our bondsers, even if we join the Manchu Bordered White Banner, we will be proper nobles, and we will not be oppressed by others for no reason."
As soon as Hai Kuan said this, everyone present changed their expressions.
Didn't they also want to leave the bannermen and become proper nobles? It was just that they never had the chance.
Fortunately, this time Mu Sili was pregnant with the royal family's first set of triplets. If she could give birth to twins, a boy and a girl, then their Zhangjia clan would definitely be lifted out of the bannermen.
When they thought about escaping their slave status and becoming real nobles, everyone had an expectant smile on their face.
"What happened today must not be spread outside. If people knew what we were thinking, they would probably criticize us in front of the Emperor. Li'er is not having a easy time either, so don't cause trouble for her."
"Don't worry, uncle, we all know."
Amidst everyone's tension and anticipation, someone arrived from the palace.
"This servant pays his respects to Master Haikuan."
"Eunuch, please get up quickly, but Concubine Min has given birth?"
"Yes, but she can no longer be called Concubine Min. The Emperor has already issued an edict to promote Concubine Min to Concubine Min."
"What? Great joy, truly great joy! Eunuch, please take a seat. I hope you can tell us in detail about the situation in the palace. I wonder if the Majesty's pregnancy is going smoothly?"
"Although there were some setbacks, Concubine Min's birth went very smoothly. She gave birth to the royal family's first set of twins, a boy and a girl. The emperor was very happy.
"I have heard that the Emperor intends to raise Zhang Jiashi to a higher banner when the young masters are one month old, but which banner they will be raised to is still under discussion, so I will not elaborate on the details."
Hai Kuan and his clansmen all felt a little dazed. Ever since Mu Sili became the empress, good things had happened one after another to their family. It could be said that they had continuous good luck.
Just now, they were thinking that if Kangxi could support them, their family would really be honored.
I didn’t expect happiness to come so suddenly. The emperor was actually going to give their family a promotion. This was something that many families had been looking forward to!
However, as they had just discussed, even if Kangxi brought in the Manchu Bordered White Banner for them, they would still be grateful for Kangxi's great kindness.
"The news you brought us is so exciting. I'm sorry to have made you laugh. Someone, please prepare a banquet. I want to personally entertain you to express my gratitude."
The young eunuch who came to report the good news did not expect that Hai Kuan would respect him so much. While he was happy, he also made up his mind to speak more for Zhang Jia after returning to the palace.
After all, although the Zhangjia clan was a bannerman family, Hai Kuan was a minister in the court. It was already very good for him, a servant, to be respected by them.
But not every family would be kind to these servants, let alone prepare a special banquet for them to thank them for leaving the palace to announce the good news.
"Your Excellency is too polite. This is what a servant should do."
Only after sending away the eunuch who came to announce the good news did Hai Kuan and others show excitement.
"Did you hear that? Li'er has been named Concubine Min, and the Emperor is planning to promote us. From now on, we, the Zhangjia clan, are no longer bondservants.
Listen carefully, Li'er's life in the palace was not easy. She was finally named a concubine with great difficulty.
If any of you dare to cause trouble for her outside and bring discredit to the Zhangjia family, I will take the initiative to kick you out of the family tree.
The honor of the Zhangjia clan needs everyone to protect, and the honor of Concubine Min needs everyone to protect even more. Since you can't do your best, then leave the Zhangjia clan as soon as possible and live on your own."
No one expected Hai Kuan to say this suddenly, but Mu Sili did bring them glory and freed them from the status of bondservants, so no one would be stupid enough to go against her.
"Don't worry, clan leader. We will carefully protect the honor of the Queen and will never bring trouble to her, nor will we become a sword that harms her."
Hai Kuan was satisfied. If a family wants to prosper, they must share a common hatred of the enemy and face the outside world together. It cannot last long relying on one person alone.
In the palace, Mu Sili was very calm about her promotion to concubine. Seeing this, Su Malagu couldn't help but nodded secretly.
It’s no wonder that Kangxi doted on her so much as she was such a patient person.
"Your Majesty, take good care of yourself during the confinement period. The prince and princess are being looked after by this old servant. You don't have to worry."
"That's good. I was able to give birth smoothly thanks to your care. I will remember this favor."
"Your Majesty, you are too kind. This is what I, an old servant, should do."
There was some calculation in Su Malagu's eyes when she looked at the two princesses. She was also a Khorchin person and she also wished the best for Khorchin.
The princesses of the Qing Dynasty had to marry off to foreign countries since ancient times. This was the first time that the twin princesses were marrying off to foreign countries, so she had to go back and discuss it with Empress Xiaozhuang.
Mu Sili is favored. If both princesses can be married to Khorchin, then Kangxi will definitely be on Khorchin's side, and Khorchin's glory will continue.
Perhaps Su Malagu's thoughts were too obvious and were caught by 9527.
[Host, wake up quickly. That old woman is targeting your two daughters.]
"Hmm? What do you mean?"
[Su Malagu wants to discuss with Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang about sending your two daughters to marry foreign princes. If nothing unexpected happens, the bride price will be Khorchin.
She's really cruel. These two little ones were just born, and she's already thinking about them. I suspect her previous kindness to you was all for a purpose.
