Work overtime

When Concubine Jing came in, she saw the emperor and Jiang Yuebai kneeling silently in front of the bed.

With tears in her eyes, she staggered up to the emperor and shouted sadly, "Your Majesty~"

Li Beichen adjusted his disgusted expression in an instant, and when he turned around and stood up, he already had a gentle look on his face, "Concubine Jing, why are you here? If you are not feeling well, please don't run around."

Concubine Jing was stunned for a moment and had mixed feelings.

She didn't expect that the emperor would speak to her in such a caring and gentle tone when Jiang Yuebai was around.All he could think about was the scene the day before yesterday when he was punished to kneel down and humiliated for slapping Jiang Yuebai.

The emperor still cares about himself.She was surprised and happy, and her eyes were filled with tears of grievance and joy.

She walked up to Li Beichen delicately, threw herself into the emperor's arms, hugged the emperor tightly in the same posture as Jiang Yuebai, and leaned on his chest, but unexpectedly found that Li Beichen's chest was wet. Without thinking much, he said sadly:

"When my concubine heard the news about the Queen Mother, she felt extremely sad. She was worried that the Emperor would be sad, so she followed her mother here without stopping."

Because of Jiang Yuebai's pearls in front of him and Chen Xiang's affairs, Li Beichen was actually very bored. If it weren't for the safety of Jiang Yuebai's younger brother, he wouldn't be too lazy to show off.

He gently patted Concubine Jing's back, "I understand your worries. But now that you are pregnant with a dragon heir, it is more important to take care of yourself."

"Your Majesty." Concubine Jing's sadness was full of coquettishness.

"Be obedient. The Queen Mother has a spirit in heaven, and she must know the thoughts of you and Xiang Chen. Concubine Jing, you are pregnant, and it is not appropriate to participate in the funeral. In the past few days, you can rest assured to raise your baby in Yongshou Palace. Don't be overly sad or suffer. shock."

After Li Beichen finished speaking, he ordered Liang Xiaobao, who was waiting shivering in the corner, "Hurry up and arrange a soft sedan to take Concubine Jing and Mrs. Chen back to the palace to rest."

According to the etiquette system of the Ming Dynasty, even if a concubine is pregnant, she still needs to observe filial piety and attend the memorial ceremony during the national mourning period, which is not an exception.Li Beichen naturally had special considerations in doing this.

Concubine Jing raised her eyes full of tears and looked at Li Beichen, "Thank you, Your Majesty. It is my duty for my concubine to observe filial piety for the Queen Mother."

After saying that, he lifted up his skirt, knelt down respectfully next to Jiang Yuebai, and kowtowed three times.

After kowtow, he only moved but did not get up.

Jiang Yuebai half-closed his eyes silently, holding back the hatred in his heart and ignoring her.You're so close to me even though you're pregnant with a child. Isn't that what you're doing for free?She won't be fooled.

Concubine Jing became a little anxious when she saw that Jiang Yuebai hadn't moved for a long time. Why didn't he move? He was always very warm-hearted, wasn't he?If you don't help me, how can I play the cruel trick?She instantly showed the aura of a royal empress and ordered:
"Rui Bin, I order you to help me stand up."

Concubine Jing had heard the official announcement yesterday that Jiang Yuebai had been promoted to the fourth level in a row. She was so angry that she smashed a whole set of bone china tea sets and cried for most of the night, unable to be coaxed.At this time, he deliberately called her Rui Bin, thinking that this would humiliate Jiang Yuebai.

"Okay. I will help you up right now." Jiang Yuebai replied respectfully, deliberately not correcting the mistake in the title of Concubine Jing.

Having made up her mind to make the little white flower of green tea, she struggled to get up, but staggered, and was about to bump into Concubine Jing, knocking Concubine Jing to the ground, but was grabbed by Li Beichen with one hand and hugged her. In arms.

Li Beichen asked hurriedly, his left hand was so painful that he was sweating, and he asked in a reproachful tone, "Rui Jieyu, why are you so careless?"

Jiang Yuebai quickly knelt down and saluted, "Your Majesty, I forgive you, it was my concubine who accidentally lost her balance. Concubine Jing, please forgive me, I will help you up right now."

She looked weak but tried hard to help Concubine Jing up.

Concubine Jing: "..."

Li Beichen asked with concern: "What's wrong with you?"

"My concubine is fine." Jiang Yuebai looked at the emperor's swollen left hand that was splinted and said eagerly, "Your hand must be in pain, right? The envoy Jiang said that he should go to the hospital for treatment immediately, and there can be no further delay."

Li Beichen touched her arm, which was hot. "You said it was okay. Why is your body so hot?"

But he found that Jiang Yuebai had closed his eyes and fainted in his arms.

He quickly shouted, "Mr. Xuan!"

Many times the timing of fainting is very strange.It had to be just right when Concubine Jing was in trouble, and the emperor could just catch it. The angle had to look soft and beautiful, but not artificial.

After getting along with each other for a few days, Jiang Yuebai could sense that the emperor took advantage of her weakness, coquettishness and cheating.In this case, let’s use the green tea routine.

Concubine Jing stared dumbly at what was happening in front of her, her heart was really cut by a knife, and her tears were pouring out, "Your Majesty, I can't get up."

Why did the other party strike first and steal the show from her before she even acted out her plan?
Li Beichen came back to his senses, "What are Liang Xiaobao still doing? Quickly help Concubine Jing to get up and arrange for her to be sent back to Yongshou Palace. The Annunciation Department arranges the ceremony, and the other concubines enter the palace to pay homage to the Queen Mother and mourn." Liang Xiaobao immediately greeted the two kneeling people. The little eunuch got up and went into the room to help Concubine Jing up. He ran over to catch Jiang Yuebai from the emperor's hand and held Jiang Yuebai in his arms.

Concubine Jing's eyes almost fell out of her sockets, and she was so angry that her teeth itched and wanted to bite.

Eunuch Xu, who had been waiting in front of the emperor, was actually replaced by the dog slave beside Jiang Yuebai?

How dare she help Jiang Yuebai in the emperor's arms instead of helping her?
Then wouldn't the emperor become that bitch of the Jiang family from now on?

snort!Concubine Jing was so angry that she successfully fainted with anger.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Jing has fainted." The little eunuch who was supporting her said urgently.

Li Beichen frowned slightly and said impatiently: "Why don't you hurry up and arrange a sedan chair to send the empress back. There is a female doctor in Yongshou Palace."

All the palace concubines were now covered in clothing. They filed in with their heads lowered. They all had tears on their faces. They were sobbing and crying, which made people feel depressed and depressed.

Li Beichen glanced at Jiang Yuebai, whose face was a little red, and loudly ordered Liang Xiaobao, "On the day of the Empress Dowager's funeral, Rui Jieyu was overly sad and helped her to the west hall to rest. She ordered Jiang Yuan to bring people to follow her, and Commander Mao made arrangements. Guard."

He was still standing where he was, with a suppressed sadness on his face.He quietly stared at the Queen Mother's graceful face, wanting to see a few more times.

Thinking back on my mother's life, I feel sad and sad, but also a little relieved. My mother's face is so calm and peaceful. She must have been liberated at the end of her life and can walk peacefully. In this way, she may not have too many regrets.

Looking at the concubines who were crying, they all looked very sad. How many of them were sincere?

Of those tears shed, how many were truly out of grief for the Queen Mother’s death?

In Li Beichen's heart, the Queen Mother liked Jiang Yuebai in her heart, otherwise she would not have rewarded him so much again and again, nor would she have wanted to kill Jiang Yuebai again and again but chose to let him go.

You must know that the Queen Mother has always been a ruthless and decisive person, and she will carry out her thoughts when she has them.

It is rare for the Queen Mother to be so rational that she can't bear it and give up temporarily.

And these concubines in front of me are all newcomers. They have only been in the palace for 20 days, so what kind of feelings can they have?

Just as Li Beichen was about to leave, a woman suddenly caught his attention.

The woman was crying sadly, like a pear blossom in the spring rain, with soft branches bent, sad and delicate. She looked somewhat similar to Jinxiu, and she seemed to be kneeling there in a trance.

In fact, everyone was crying, but everyone was secretly observing the emperor, secretly sculpting their faces, and trying to cry out the beauty of Xizi.

But there is only one Xizi in this world.Most people just learn and sell on the fly, and they only get a superficial result, which seems extremely artificial.

Li Beichen was in a daze, feeling his heart tremble and feel heartache.

But it only took a moment for him to come back to his senses, glance at it lightly, and declare in a serious voice:

"I hereby respect the empress dowager's kindness. Jieyu Jiang is loyal, filial, and gentle. She has rescued the empress dowager many times. In addition, King Qin has made great contributions to the rescue this time. She is hereby canonized as a concubine. The ceremony of conferring concubine will be held at a selected date. I will confer the title of Ning. I In gratitude for her conduct and merit, she was given the title of Concubine Jianing and she was given the title of Concubine Jianing. She was given a residence in Ning'an Palace. From now on, you should all follow Concubine Jianing's example and show your inner integrity."

After hearing this, all the concubines were shocked and stopped crying temporarily, dumbfounded.

Concubine!Concubine position!

The kind words are just gorgeous, what they care about is real status.

Everyone present is a newcomer. How come it’s only been 20 days since I joined the company? I was selected as an attendant on P15 and accepted on P14, but they are already in the top position of P3 concubine?
This is probably a position that most of the people present may not reach in their lifetime.

This... This is too unfair and unreasonable, right?
Being from a far inferior background and having no scandalous inside story makes it even more uncomfortable.

It's like they are both working part-time, with the same boss. Others earn [-] yuan a month, but I earn [-] yuan a month.Others got perfect scores of [-], but I got a fraction.

Suddenly the cry started loudly.

Now everyone's cries were truly filled with sadness and anger.

cry.
