Concubine Gao felt bitter, but she didn't dare to say it. She could only say congratulations obediently because she was afraid that Mu Sili would come back to punish her after knowing her opposition.
"Your Majesty, this is a very good decision. When Concubine Xian first entered the palace, she should have been a noble concubine. If the Empress Dowager had not stopped her, Concubine Xian would not have become Concubine Xian."
When Concubine Gao said this, she did not feel too unhappy in her heart, after all, she was telling the truth.
Now she only hopes that Mu Sili can remember her kindness and not cause trouble for her after she is out of confinement.
Of course, if possible, she really hopes to live in peace with Mu Sili. At the very least, she can't let the Queen be the ultimate winner, right?
Now the Queen is under house arrest in Changchun Palace, and the highest ranking person in the palace is her, the Imperial Concubine. Oh no, and her as well. Even if it is just because she was the Imperial Concubine first, she should still respect her a little.
But it didn't matter if she didn't respect her, she wouldn't force her to be in awe of her, and she wouldn't dare.
Qianlong was very satisfied with Concubine Gao's attitude. Since she said so, he naturally had to give his beloved woman the position of Concubine, which was what she deserved.
Just like what Concubine Gao said, if the Empress Dowager had not deliberately suppressed her, she would have been given the title of Imperial Concubine by now.
However, as long as the queen is still alive, he will not let her become the imperial concubine. This is the rule.
With the Queen in power, the Qing Dynasty could not establish an Imperial Noble Consort. After all, the Imperial Noble Consort had too much power. Even for the sake of peace in the harem, he would not do so.
"Noble Concubine Gao's words resonate deeply with me. Since Noble Concubine Gao also thinks that Concubine Xian is a good concubine, then I will naturally meet your request.
Li Yu, pass on the imperial decree that Empress Xian has been rewarded with the title of Imperial Concubine for giving birth to a son, and will be rewarded with one hundred pieces of silk and satin, ten thousand taels of gold, and some jewelry.
The boy-girl twins are the first auspicious sign for the Qing Dynasty and are of great significance. I will carefully choose names for them.
"Noble Concubine Gao, I will temporarily hand over the affairs of Chengqian Palace to you. I do not want to hear any bad news about Chengqian Palace."
"I understand. Your Majesty, rest assured. I will never let anything happen to Chengqian Palace."
Concubine Gao was bitter in her heart. How could she have the guts to let anything happen in Chengqian Palace? If something really happened in Chengqian Palace, then the first person to punish her would not be Emperor Qianlong, but Mu Sili, who was still in confinement there.
This palace is not a place for people to stay. If possible, can she be sent to the temporary palace for recuperation?
Although the palace is a bit deserted, it is safe. If she goes there, she will definitely live a long life.
The news that Mu Sili gave birth to twins and was named a noble concubine spread throughout the six palaces in an instant, and the queen was so angry that she lost her temper in Changchun Palace.
She also wants to give birth to a legitimate son to inherit the throne of the crown prince. Wouldn't it be a nuisance for her if Mu Silisheng gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl?
Judging from how much Qianlong valued her, in the absence of a legitimate son, the dragon among the twins would sooner or later become the crown prince.
Once he becomes the crown prince, even if she is the queen, she will have no choice but to acknowledge him.
If she had known that she was pregnant with twins, she should have tried to get her to have an abortion from the beginning so that she would not become a threat to her.
The more the queen thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt, and the more aggrieved she felt, the more she wanted to leave Changchun Palace. However, she was now under house arrest in Changchun Palace, and if she went out, she was afraid that she would be criticized.
No, this is all the Queen Mother's fault. If the Queen Mother could be a little more cruel and let her die in her residence, these things would not have happened.
After she was released from the ban, she would go to Shoukang Palace to greet the Queen Mother and ask her if she regretted not killing the other party immediately after hearing the news.
What the Queen didn't know was that the Queen Mother already knew that Mu Sili had given birth to twins, a boy and a girl. But what good was that even if she knew? She had suffered a stroke and could do nothing.
She regrets it so much now. If she hadn't targeted Mu Sili, the matter of Li Jingui would not have been exposed. If it hadn't been exposed, she would still be the high and mighty empress dowager.
Now she is really fed up with this state of life worse than death. If possible, she really wants to die, but she dare not. She always holds on to the idea of recovery.
She could still remember clearly what the Queen had said since she had the stroke. She had to recover so that she could deal with the bitch Queen.
She was the one who gave her the position of queen, but she never expected that she would react like that after she fell into trouble.
Now that Mu Sili has given birth to twins, a boy and a girl, and has been named a noble concubine, based on her understanding of the queen, she will definitely blame her for this.
Just wait for her. When she recovers, she will immediately feed the Queen poison. If the Queen dares to insult her, she must be prepared to die.
And there is Mu Sili. It was her fault that she had a stroke, and she will not let her go. Even the twin boy and girl she gave birth to will not be let go.
Anyway, Qianlong had always had difficulty in having children, so he could just give her the reputation of defiling the harem. That way, the twins would become illegitimate offspring, and it would be their right to die.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help wanting to laugh, but her stiff body discouraged her. Before her body recovered, everything she thought about now was just empty talk.
A month later, the twins were one month old. In consideration of their full month age, Emperor Qianlong released the empress.
"I hope you can fulfill your duties as queen. If you truly do not want the title of queen, I can remove it from you at any time."
The queen followed Emperor Qianlong with a pale face to attend the full-month banquet of the twins. When she saw Mu Sili being the center of attention, she felt it was extremely dazzling.
Look at the twin boy and girl again. If they were born by her, she would definitely pamper them infinitely. Unfortunately, they are not hers. Since they are not hers, they deserve to die.
The queen felt like she was going crazy. She actually had the urge to strangle the twins to death. If she really did this, it would bring indelible disaster to the Fucha family.
At the full-moon banquet, Emperor Qianlong named the twins Yongji and Qianrou, and conferred the title of Princess Hejia on Qianrou.
When the Queen heard that Emperor Qianlong had conferred the title of Princess Gulun on Mu Sili's daughter, she was so angry that she almost left the full moon banquet.
The title of Princess Gulun can only be given to a daughter born to her. Why did Emperor Qianlong give such an honorable title to Mu Sili's daughter?
Qianlong seemed to know that she was unhappy, but what did her unhappiness have to do with him? He only knew that he had to give his daughter the best treatment.
"The Queen seems dissatisfied with my decision. Why? Do you think my daughter is not noble enough to be a Princess of the First Rank?"
"No, the Emperor's daughter is naturally noble, but this Princess Gulun has always represented opposition, and I am worried that someone will gossip about her behind her back."
"Really? I thought you were dissatisfied with my decision. If that's not the case, then stay put and don't cause any trouble."
