When he woke up again, it was already two days later. After that, he slept and woke up intermittently for another two days before he gradually recovered. His entire body was sore for many days. Huan Pei, the doctor, was the most powerful. He didn't allow me to walk around for a moment. He took turns with Huan Ling and Tao Yun to guard me, saying that it was to prevent the root of the disease.
Seeing her determined look, I couldn't bear to disobey her, so I had to let her be.
When his spirit gradually recovered, he leaned on the bed and listened to Ring Bell describe the situation of being sick for several days.
It turned out that after I fainted in the palanquin, Wen Lang was extremely anxious. Not only did he send me back to Jinghe Palace, but he also personally carried me in. He immediately summoned two imperial physicians, one of whom was even the court judge of the Imperial Academy of Medicine. You must know that only concubines above the main seat had the right to invite him.
Later, it was a mess. Huan Pei used the reason that Jinghe Palace was far from the Imperial Academy of Medicine and requested to brew medicine in Jinghe Palace. Wen Lang naturally understood and sent a large number of precious herbs. If there were any missing or difficult to preserve, the Internal Affairs Office would fill them at any time.
Ring Ring happily presented me with a treasure."Huan Pei said that when Young Lady recovers, these medicinal herbs will be enough for a while. Many of them are rare items that can't be bought with money!”
" You broke the rules this time." I felt a little helpless." Then, who wrote the prescription?"”
Ring Bell became interested and shook her head."Miss, you don't know! Two imperial physicians, one old and one young, came. The old one was the court judge. At first, he was not very friendly. He just watched the young one take the pulse and did not say anything when he wrote the prescription. He looked like an official! Later on, the Emperor was angry and said that if anything happened to the young miss, he would be the one to blame. Only then did he take her pulse carefully and write prescriptions very carefully. Later on, Huan Pei said that although this old judge was pedantic, he had some real talent.”
I just laughed and scolded them for being unruly, but Ring Bell didn't care."No one has come to look at our rules, so what are you afraid of?”
Knowing that Ring Bell wasn't lying, I didn't say much."Is there anything going on outside these few days?”
"It's very lively outside! It's just that after that day, the emperor never came to visit again, instead…"
I looked at Ring Bell's indignant expression and smiled."So what?"
Ring Bell curled her lips." Instead, he has favored several young masters in succession and even promoted them. They are almost surpassing the young miss!"”
"You little girl, don't you dare to stir up trouble here again!”
Coincidentally, Huan Pei came into the room and scolded Huan Ling. Huan Ling replied,"It's always been like this. Could it be that you're hiding it from Young Lady?”
I poked Ring Bell's forehead with my finger."You silly girl, I'm already at the cusp of the storm in this palace. The emperor is helping me by doing this. Could it be that the emperor is ignoring the harem for me and going against the empress dowager?”
With that, I asked Huan Pei," The Empress Dowager issued a strict edict that day, but the Emperor was delayed here for more than half a day. There were imperial physicians and medicinal herbs. Has the Empress Dowager made any movements?"”
Huan Pei shook her head." I didn't hear anything. I don't think they mentioned this again."”
" I believe the Emperor knows his limits." I nodded and smiled again." Then let's have a month of leisure. It's also comfortable."”
As the days passed, my body became better. Under Huan Pei's meticulous and strict care, I finally didn't have any problems. Wen Lang really didn't come over again. He only sent people to ask a few questions every few days. How was his body? Was there anything he lacked?
Actually, with Li Wenlang's mobilization that day, the Internal Affairs Bureau did not deduct much from my share of the palace. Even if there was a shortage, I did not return it to Wenlang. I only asked Huan Pei and Huan Ling to send out gold and silver. Making up for the expenses was secondary. The main thing was to find out which places could be opened with money. After winning over the hearts of the people, I could also gather information. It was killing two birds with one stone. The large sum of money I brought into the palace has not been used yet, so it is now useful.
Every day, I would read and play the piano, or wander around in the backyard. I was free and relaxed, but I also cultivated my body. Bored, among the servants of Yun Zhi Yuan, there were people to relieve boredom.
As usual, the servants of the fifth rank concubines should be four palace maids and four inner supervisors. Because I already have Tao Yun and Xiao Yong in the inner courtyard, the palace maids and inner supervisors added to Yunzhi Garden during the last promotion were all rough envoys from the outer courtyard. They were not allowed to enter the inner courtyard at will on weekdays. I was sick for days. I couldn't even call out their names, let alone talk.
These days, I had some free time, so I properly recognized their names and occasionally chatted with them. At first, I only replied cautiously and was not very interesting. Gradually, I found out that there was an older internal supervisor called Changqing who was full of stories. After asking carefully, I found out that his uncle used to be a storyteller. There was also a fourteen-year-old palace maid called Sihan. She was very beautiful and had a good mind. After entering the palace last year, she was originally a high-class palace maid. Later, she was demoted to a rough envoy for some reason. The reason was not difficult to guess.
There was also a palace maid called Xiao Chun, who came from the famous Jing Zheng Chess Hall in the capital. Last year, the Chess Hall was closed down and she was demoted to a servant to enter the palace. Xiao Chun was good at playing chess, so I exempted her from her menial work and often pulled her to play chess.
In the blink of an eye, it was October. Seeing that the day of the ban was gradually approaching, I was actually reluctant to part with it. The unfamiliar period of entering the palace gradually passed, and everyone became active. Putting aside the superficial politeness, disputes also followed the light and dark. Thinking that I would still have to get involved in it, I couldn't help but feel annoyed.
The few maids gradually became happy because the seventh day of the tenth month was not only the day of my release, but also my sixteenth birthday. They all wanted to help me organize a good celebration for my birthday and also drive away the evil aura.
Jinghe Palace has been quiet for a month and hasn't been lively for a long time. I let them do whatever they wanted. Everyone said that Japanese Lang would definitely come.
Actually, I could guess what they were thinking. They always thought that I could use this opportunity to turn over a new leaf and gain favor. I didn't mean it that way, but I really hoped that someone would come to celebrate my birthday with me. Therefore, I also deliberately chose the dishes I liked and prepared them with them.
On the afternoon of the sixth day, I was reading in front of the window, enjoying the peace of my last day. Huan Pei, Huan Ling and Tao Yun entered the room together. I knew something was up when I saw them. I put down the book in my hand."What's wrong?"
The three of them looked at each other and Huan Pei said,""Young miss, this morning when the people from Renshou Palace paid their respects, the empress dowager said that most of the concubines in the harem had too low a status and did not have a master position. She was very tired of everything and advised the emperor to choose a master position so that the empress dowager could share some of the affairs of the harem.”
It was not a rare thing to be promoted. Sooner or later, there would be high-ranking concubines in the harem, so I knew that this was not the main point, so I gestured for her to continue.
"The Emperor immediately chose Rong Wanyi as the Noble Concubine, Jing Shunyi as Jie Yu, and Concubine Lan as Rong Hua.”
I understood at once and asked,"Which day did you choose?”
"Tomorrow." Huan Pei said gloomily.”
I was a little surprised. It wasn't because Wenlang was so easily conferred the position of Lord, but because according to the rules of our dynasty, there is a ceremony for the title of Lord. Although your concubine is the lowest rank of Lord, she is also recorded in the ancestral temple and buried in the Imperial Mausoleum.
Ring Ring interrupted," I heard that the people from the Ministry of Rites said that the first conferring ceremony will be held on a lucky day. The lucky days of this month are the second, seventh, and nineteenth. The nineteenth is the old consort's birthday, so it's not good to salute. If it's not tomorrow, it's next month. The Emperor chose tomorrow."”
Huan Ling was unhappy." Why is it that the auspicious day is always on my birthday? I wonder how the people from the Ministry of Rites calculate it!"”
I didn't say anything. If it was tomorrow, I would naturally have to attend. Just the ceremony alone would take half a day. At night, there would be a palace banquet to confer the title of the first noble concubine in Wenlang's harem. Presumably, he wouldn't have any free time tomorrow night. My birthday celebration could be considered to have vanished like smoke.
I waved my hand and told them to go out. I suddenly realized that I felt a little wronged in my heart. I blamed Wenlang for being so anxious to get things done and choosing to do it tomorrow.
On second thought, it was true that Wen Lang was filial to the Empress Dowager, but it was not to the extent of obeying the Empress Dowager's orders. The Empress Dowager's excuse was only to find a way out for Wen Lang. The title and date had probably been chosen long ago.
It was a sunny day on the seventh day of October. I got up early and rinsed my mouth. After washing my face, I called Huan Ling to open the window. Looking at the sunshine in the courtyard, my heart was no longer as dark as yesterday. It even had a little cheerfulness. I sat in front of the mirror and let Huan Ling help me with my makeup.
Today was considered a formal occasion, so I couldn't make up my mind. On my clothes, I deliberately avoided bright colors such as peach blossom, sapphire blue, and goose yellow that might clash with others. I chose a green dress that I rarely wore on a normal day. I tied an apricot ribbon and covered it with a light green floor-length shirt.
Huanling helped me tie my hair up and tied it with a white jade hairpin. According to the rules of the concubine's rank, I carefully picked out two high-grade cloud pattern silk pearl jade hairpins, one big and one small, and two pearl hairpins from the moon. I carefully put them into my hair and compared them with the mirror. This is the first time since I entered the palace that I've deliberately chosen a hairpin, ring, and clothes for myself. Although no one cares, it's still my birthday after all, so I'm definitely not willing to be wronged.
The coronation ceremony was held in Chengxian Hall. I saw that it was still early, so I slowly walked around with my ring pendant. The scenery in the palace was different from a month ago. The bleak autumn flavor was revealed, which made me look around.
On the way, they passed by Yongxiang Palace and saw that the palace gates had already been set up with noble consorts 'colored banners. Many palace people were busy in front and behind, waiting for the conferring of noble consorts to be completed and for them to receive their congratulations when they returned to the palace.
I looked at the ceremony of conferring titles. They were just noble concubines, but they were already a symbol of status. There were many women, but how many of them would have supreme status in the future?
"Miss?" Huan Pei saw that I was a little lost in thought and called out to me.
" Let's go." I smiled." Many people have been promoted in this month, right?”
Huan Pei naturally knew my purpose and explained it to me in detail."Yes, most of the concubines have been promoted by one rank, except for the three who were conferred this time. Noble Yi's zither skills are outstanding and the emperor likes her very much. She has been promoted by two ranks, just like the young miss. Although Beauty Han did not serve the concubines, due to the rise of her brother's official position in the family, she was also promoted to noble.”
I heard that Chun Sheng and Song Bining's promotion was reasonable, but I was surprised that Wang Yiyao had advanced two levels in a row. It seems that although she is superficial, she is still quite capable.
"Where's Yuan Yan?"”
Huan Pei shook his head.”# Daguan Review Passed: Daguan Time:111420183: 48PM #Cancel Review All: wdd201302 Time:111420185: 56PM #
