How could Jin Xin not know that if she were still the little maid who had just entered the palace, she would definitely cuddle up in front of the emperor and happily thank him for his love.
But she knows very well that there are many things that cannot be greedy. Only when enough is enough can it last long.
"I don't ask for status, I just want our family to be together like this forever, with the emperor, Hong'er, and our child."
"Jin Xin, I know you are a non-competitive person, but I want to give you the best, and you deserve the best." He looked at her seriously, his eyes soft, hoping that she would agree to this.
If the Lin family could stay in peace, he wouldn't be intolerant. The Queen was immoral, but the Queen Mother was still here, so she couldn't move.
But now he just wants Jin Xin to be in charge of the harem legitimately. The imperial concubine is nothing. If the Jiang family's status is not important, Jin Xin will be established as the West Palace, on the same level as the empress.
Of all the people, Jin Xin is the only one who truly loves him and he is willing to give her the best, so who can say anything.
His affection today was also stimulated by Concubine Yu. He wanted to prove that he would not wrong his woman, so he took the initiative to support Jin Xin.
Seeing his initiative, Jin Xin felt that it was a bit unreal, but she was not carried away by the excitement of this promise.
"Your Majesty, I know that I have a concubine in your heart. This is enough. As for the imperial concubine, I am still young. I can wait another three to five years, but now I am really not worthy."
The favor was too much, and she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to bear it. For those veterans who supported the Queen Mother, one or two emperors could stand in the way, but what about the students of those veterans.
If a literati's pen is used against a woman, even an emperor will be afraid of giving in.
Seeing her refusal, the emperor felt even more sorry for her. He hugged her and said, "You are always so careful. Are you worried that I won't protect you?"
Jin Xin was silent, she was dependent on the emperor, but she believed in herself more.
"Then according to what you said, don't make this imperial concubine first and wait a few more years."
"I would like to thank you, Your Majesty, for understanding my difficulties."
"I also sent people to investigate your father's previous affairs. It was indeed the adulterer who colluded with the guilty officials and framed your father. I will issue an order to restore your father's title."
When Jin Xin heard this, she stood up in surprise and said, "I once again thank you for your grace."
The emperor pulled her up and said, "You are pregnant, so don't always salute in the future."
Jin Xin smiled and said, "I know this, but can you please ask the emperor to issue an edict that Jiang Quwu will inherit this title?"
The emperor smiled when he heard this, "What do you mean?"
"My concubine's father is indeed mediocre and has no ambition to make progress. When he did not have a title, he was always messing around with women. If he regains his title, it will be even more difficult to restrain him. He can just take care of himself and take care of himself." Jin. Heart sighed.
"That's right, according to what you said, your brother is indeed a talent, and I intend to cultivate him well." The emperor smiled.
"This is a matter of government affairs. It's up to the emperor to make the decision." Jin Xin said.
The two chatted about other things, perhaps because they were hurt by the matter of Concubine Yu. He talked a lot today and sighed a lot. Jin Xin listened quietly.
When the emperor left, the concubine came and met the emperor at the door. The emperor didn't say anything and asked her to stay with the concubine before leaving.
Concubine Fang will be fifteen in March next year, and will be able to sleep with her by the time she has hair. The emperor never thought of her, and her life was not easy. After entering the palace, she only came to Jinxin to walk around. After a long time, the Ministry of Internal Affairs knew that Concubine Fang was close to Concubine De, and naturally they did not dare to neglect her.
"Sister, I heard that Concubine Yu was sent to Nansan Institute. Is this true?" Fang Concubine asked curiously.
Jin Xin looked at her innocent look, pinched her face, and said with a smile, "Did this matter spread so quickly? You came here after hearing the news."
"Isn't Nansan Institute a place where palace maids take care of themselves? Concubine Yu...oh no, why did Yu Zhaoyi go there?"
Jin Xin actually didn't know, but after thinking about it carefully, she probably guessed something.
"Perhaps she was thinking about the emperor's heir. If not, she would have been sent to the cold palace."
"Ah? Why? You were fine yesterday, why was she suddenly dismissed? What did Yu Zhaoyi do wrong?" Fang Bi asked, covering her mouth in surprise.
Hearing this, Jin Xin glanced sideways at her and felt that she talked a bit too much today, so she said, "Stop asking so many questions. It's best if you don't know these things."
Concubine Fang seemed to be very timid when she first entered the palace. She probably got used to it and could chat with anyone for a long time.
Jin Xin also treats her as a little sister. Because of Mrs. Liu, she takes more care of her concubine. If she can get the Holy Favor, it won't be a failure. If she can't, she won't let her down even if she takes more care of her. The tough ones.
The next day, the imperial edict was issued to restore the title of the Jiang family. Jiang Quwu inherited the title, and the matter was settled.
Jin Xin planned to wait until she gave birth to the child and ask for a royal decree for her mother, so that she would not need to be promoted. She would not be wasting her hard work in the palace by giving favor to her family.
The days gradually came to New Year's Eve, and the emperor was even more busy. He heard that King Xian had raised an army in Bingzhou and proclaimed himself king. He actually had 50,000 elite soldiers in his hands, all of whom were privately trained by the Gao family. When something happened to the Gao family, this army actually took refuge. The king of leisure.
The emperor sent veteran general Pei Yong to quell the rebellion. Unexpectedly, Pei Yong was betrayed by a traitor and was beheaded by King Xian's generals in protest.
After Concubine Xuan learned the news, she was so excited that she fainted.
King Xian seemed to have received advice from an expert and used Taoist military skills, which caused the elite soldiers he sent to suffer setbacks one after another.
This incident made the emperor furious, and the general sent by the Central Government was still confronting the other party.
Let the ministers make suggestions, but there is nothing they can do.
At this time, Gu Zhaoqiu came to the imperial court and took the initiative to ask Ying to go.
The emperor agreed and sent 50,000 troops there, asking him to make a military declaration. If he did not achieve his goal, he would not give up. He would not defeat the rebels and he would not return to the court.
When sending the army out of the city, the emperor himself stood at the city gate and watched them leave the city, his eyes long and his face cold.
His veteran generals were lost a lot, and his young generals were unable to shoulder the heavy responsibility. If the ministers hadn't stopped him, he would have personally conquered the army and put an end to King Xian's rebellion.
Jin Xin was also standing on the highest tower in the palace at this time, standing up with Concubine Xuan, looking in the direction of the main entrance of the city, and sighed, "I heard that King Xian asked a Taoist warlock to point out the military formation. It's very strange. I didn't know this. Second time, whether Commander Gu can successfully quell the rebellion."
Concubine Xuan gritted her teeth, her eyes still red, "It will definitely happen. Such a thief will not die a good death."
A few days after her father returned to Beijing, he was sent to Bingzhou. The father and daughter had not even met, and she heard the bad news that he had died. How could she accept it? She cursed King Xian day and night for an early and violent death.
Jin Xin sighed deeply and prayed in her heart that Gu Zhao would be safe during this trip.
If he can return successfully, he will have achieved military success and will no longer be a guard in the backyard, but a general in the former court.
