After hearing this, Concubine Xuan's first reaction was that her body had been tampered with. She became nervous, "What did you do to me?"
Jin Xin chuckled, "Guess, I did do something to you while you were in coma. As for what happened, you can take your time and think about it."
The important thing is that she is restless day and night.
Seeing her go out, Concubine Xuan felt even more uneasy and shouted crazily, "Jiang Jinxin, you're back, what exactly did you do to me?"
But what she responded to was the silence of the room.
Is she not going to live long, or has she been poisoned or bewitched? What is she going to do?
Concubine Xuan was so frightened that she cried for the first time.
After leaving the Yilan Palace, Jin Xin called the manager of the palace's slave supervision department to come over.
"A group of slaves will be released from the palace years ago, so the people in front of the imperial family do not need to be touched. There are also slaves on Concubine Xuan's side who are quite young, careless in their work, and some who are very ambitious. Let them all be released, and they will be replaced. A new group of people have been selected. Come and report back to me."
Manager An hurriedly agreed, but then asked out of curiosity, "Do you have any candidates for the new slave?"
"It's up to you to handle the maids roughly. If you're looking for a first- or second-grade palace maid who looks honest but knows how to wink, just come to me and give me a reply." Jin Xin said calmly.
Manager An understood and nodded in agreement.
The imperial concubine clearly changed her position, naturally using her injury as an excuse. The servants were not serving her well, and Concubine Xuan could not say anything.
Except for those who serve her closely, everything else has to be changed.
Early in the morning, Jin Xin did send her own carriage to the Pei family to invite people. Naturally, Mrs. Pei knew that her sister-in-law was injured in the palace. Although the news was concealed, how could she have concealed it? The Xiao family had already reported the news. It was released.
Just two days ago, something happened to the Xiao family inexplicably. The door was sealed and closed, and many bodies were brought out. I don’t know what happened. Anyone with some information knows that the Xiao family was targeted, but the specific details are unknown. .
After Mrs. Pei was admitted to the palace, she just entered the Yilan Palace and saw the palace full of maids standing. Concubine Xuan was still angry in bed and did not want these maids to serve her.
Mrs. Pei had no choice but to go in. When Concubine Xuan saw her family coming, her eyes immediately turned red with grievance. Looking at her sister-in-law, she choked with sobs, "Sister-in-law."
"Mother, I'm here. I look much thinner. I've wronged you these days." Mrs. Pei stepped forward to comfort her.
"She actually replaced all the people I was used to and released them from the palace. These are all her people. How could they serve me with all their heart!" Concubine Xuan said angrily.
Mrs. Pei sighed, took her hand, and said in a gentle voice, "You have been in a coma in the palace these days. I'm afraid you don't know what happened. Concubine Xiao's maids plotted to murder Mrs. Jiang. Now they are all dead. Concubine Xiao has been killed." I was demoted and imprisoned, didn’t the servants around you tell you?”
Jiang Jinxin said it last night, and she thought about it all night before she realized that she was being used by Concubine Xiao to deal with Jiang Jinxin with her own life.
But her most caring maid was killed, and the others were replaced overnight. How could the new ones know those things, let alone talk to her about herself?
Now that she was seeing Mrs. Pei, she dared to show her true emotions.
"Sister-in-law, what do you think I should do? I have nothing now. The emperor must be disappointed in me. How can the imperial concubine let me go in the future?"
Mrs. Pei held her hand and said, "Your brother is now in Dingzhou and has just taken over the military affairs there. If he can successfully take over the affairs there, you will be fine in the palace. You just need to be vigilant in the future." Please don't mess around again, just wait for the day to come."
Mrs. Pei's words made her feel a little relieved, and she nodded, "That's all we can do now."
But when she thought about what the imperial concubine said last night that she would never be able to have a child of her own in this life, she was still very concerned.
She couldn't feel anything wrong with her body, but she was always uneasy. With such anxiety, she couldn't sleep well.
For so long, the emperor has never set foot in her palace, and she really has no hope.
Is it true, as she said, that she has no chance?
Concubine Xuan smiled bitterly, her anger was completely gone.
But when she thought about Xiao Yuer, she actually took advantage of her, she couldn't swallow this breath, and it would definitely not make her feel comfortable.
New Year's Eve banquet.
In the Taiping Hall, the eldest prince sat next to Jin Xin. It was cold and the princess did not bring him.
None of the other children were brought.
This is the first time that the eldest prince appears in front of all the ministers. He sits upright, very well-behaved, looks very cute, and behaves in a well-behaved manner. He has the right posture to sit and eat, and he is at his most noisy age, but Because his mother and concubine had warned him in the palace that he must be good tonight and not embarrass himself in front of the ministers, so he had to be obedient.
He is a child who listens to advice and is sensible, so he naturally takes it to heart.
Now that the world has settled down, the national treasury is gradually filling up, and there are no external or internal troubles, this year's New Year's Eve banquet will be extraordinarily grand.
There was singing and dancing, and everything was peaceful.
Concubine Lan looked at Jin Xin, picked up the wine, and toasted her from afar. Jin Xin returned the favor, and the two looked at each other and smiled.
The palace gave food to the nobles and important ministers. After the food was given, Jin Xin had to go with the emperor to offer incense.
On the eighth day of the first lunar month, Imperial Doctor Fang invited a matchmaker to the palace, gave Lianrong a betrothal gift, and chose an auspicious day to get married.
Chengen Palace was filled with joy.
Wedding candies were prepared in the palace, everyone who saw them had a share, and Concubine Lan also came to join in the fun.
Lianrong's wedding dress was embroidered by herself. Looking at the bright red wedding dress, Lianrong held it in her arms and looked forward to it with joy.
"Is Lianrong going to get married from the palace?" Concubine Lan asked curiously.
Jin Xin shook her head, "The remains of Lianrong's family have been found and buried outside the capital. I bought her a house in the city. It is considered her natal family and she was married from there."
"Doctor Fang is young and promising, and has a handsome appearance. Miss Lianrong is also more delicate than flowers. They really look like a perfect match." Concubine Lan joked.
Jin Xin smiled and looked at Lian Rong over there, she also sighed.
Now that Lian Rong is gone, she will go out of the palace to support her husband and raise her children. As a young lady from a family with medical knowledge, the Fang family now has Dr. Fang as an official in the palace and runs a medical clinic outside. Lian Rong's life will be very smooth.
"Look, Miss Lianrong is so happy when she knows that she is getting married." Concubine Lan smiled.
Hearing this, Lianrong blushed with embarrassment.
"Empress, when I leave, who will be waiting for you? When I think of this, I am really worried about you." Lianrong was a little reluctant to leave.
"You can go with peace of mind. Dr. Fang is already old. If he waits for you for a few more years, he will be old. You are now a big girl. I can't keep you much longer. Cuigu will take good care of me. Caixia and Caihong are also mine." You don’t need to worry about people who are considerate and used to it.”
After saying that, someone brought the deed of sale and handed it to Lianrong, "This deed of sale was signed by you when you sold yourself to the palace. I have smoothed your identity. From now on, you will be registered as a good citizen, and this is the house." I will ask people to deliver the land deed, one thousand taels of silver notes, and other things to you one after another. On the day of your wedding, I won’t be able to leave the palace to see you off, but I will ask my brother to do it for you."
Being able to be personally escorted by Qi Yuanhou to get married, her husband's family would not dare to look down upon her.
Hearing this, Lianrong knelt down heavily and said, "Your Majesty, I would like to thank you for your kindness."
