concubine queen

Chapter 16
"This, is Miss Li Si from the Prime Minister's Mansion?"

Feng Xi and Zhang Huiyi were talking, when Zhou Liwei walked over in a gorgeous outfit and looked at Feng Xi with a proud face.Both Feng Xi and Zhang Huiyi subconsciously stood up.

"Fengxi has met Ms. Zhou, and I have heard of Ms. Zhou's name for a long time. When I saw her today, she is really extraordinary." Fengxi picked a good word and said, this week Liwei was born well, and she was used to being praised since she was a child. Fengxi said so, Zhou Liwei naturally Useful.

Sure enough, Zhou Liwei had a look of disdain before, but now it's a little less and more joyful.Zhou Liwei thought to herself that Li Fengxi had a good eye, but their family backgrounds were similar, and Cheng Cheng was even more powerful than her father, but they were both first-rank officials.Thinking of this, Zhou Liwei became more polite to Li Fengxi.

"Miss Li Si can really talk, I didn't bother you." Zhou Liwei said with a smile.

Feng Xi and Zhang Huiyi felt helpless, this one was really good at talking, even if it disturbed them both, they were reluctant to say so, although they didn't like Zhou Liwei in front of them, they didn't show it.

"Miss Zhou's clothes are very nice." Zhang Huiyi felt a little embarrassed not to say a word, so she opened her mouth.

Zhou Liwei was about to speak, but Chen Danpei who followed beside him spoke first.

"Miss Zhang has a good eye. Sister Liwei's suit has been made by the shopkeeper of Xiangyifang for more than a month. It is made of high-quality brocade. A piece of brocade costs a lot of silver."

Although Zhou Liwei was a little displeased with Chen Danpei's snatching up, but what he said was also a compliment to her, so he didn't care too much, with a smug look on his face.

Others saw it clearly, it seemed that this Chen Danpei was really just flattering Zhou Liwei to take advantage of it, and saying this at this time was indirectly saying how rich Zhou Liwei's family was.But no matter how much the annual salary of the imperial court is, it is impossible to afford so many brocades. Therefore, Chen Danpei said that although these beautiful women in front of him would not say anything, the masters of the palaces all have eyeliners.Those eyeliners were able to tell the palace masters verbatim about what happened in this show girl's place in a blink of an eye.So all the show girls were cautious in their words and deeds, but Zhou Liwei didn't know whether he was too well protected or too stupid, so he couldn't be vigilant against Chen Danpei beside him.Feng Xi secretly sighed that Zhou Liwei's life in the palace might not be very easy, but it would be much better without an enemy.

"Masters, there will be sedan chairs to take you back now, please stay at home and wait for the ranking arrangements." The consular eunuch came in and bowed his waist and said.

The eight beautiful girls got into their sedan chairs, knowing that this might be the last time to get together with their families before entering the palace. If they are favored in the palace in the future, they may go home to visit their relatives. Can't see you anymore.The eight beautiful girls were all a bit sentimental, and so was Feng Xi, who felt uncomfortable thinking that she would not be able to see her mother again in the future.But she chose this path by herself, so she has to go on it well, no matter how difficult it is, she has to persevere.

The imperial palace, in the Chengyang Palace of the Empress.The emperor Yu Mingqian was lazily sitting on the soft couch with a book, and the empress came over with the arranged grades of the beautiful women in her hand, and sat beside the emperor.

"Your Majesty, this is the list of the best girls selected today. The concubine decides the grades, and I invite the Emperor to have a look." The queen said and handed over the book.

Yu Mingqian took the list lazily, "Zhou Liwei, from the eighth rank talent. Chen Danpei, the ninth rank Baolin..." Yu Mingqian seemed to have no objection to the previous ones, "Li Fengxi, from the seventh rank. Li Fengxi. "Suddenly, Yu Mingqian's mind came to that day Zhulin's bright eyes, courageous and smart little man.She said her name was Li Fengxi, huh, heh, a wise man is sure to make a mistake, thinking so, the corner of Yu Mingqian's mouth twitched.

The empress was startled when she saw the eight beautiful girls, except for the expression when the emperor said the name of Li Fengxi, the others were all indifferent. He couldn't help but become more vigilant towards Fengxi in his heart. The empress dowager also likes this person, and this person is As the prime minister's daughter, she gave it to Cong Qipin, who is even higher than Zhou Liwei's second rank, but now it seems that Li Fengxi's position is about to be promoted again.

"This Li Fengxi, let's confer the title of Fangyi of the sixth grade!" Yu Mingqian took a pen and changed it.

The queen is still in the future and the matter of speaking has been decided. Sure enough, the emperor likes this person a little, probably more than a little.The queen sighed in her heart, the harem was about to start fighting again.

Feng Xi's sedan chair arrived at the prime minister's mansion, and the prime minister led a group of people to stand there to greet him.

Feng Xi got off the sedan chair, and the prime minister was about to salute, Feng Xi hurriedly helped her father up, how could she have the nerve to ask him to salute her.

"Father, don't be too polite, let's go into the house."

The prime minister nodded, knowing that his daughter might be entering the palace this evening, it would be difficult to meet her in the palace, so let's take advantage of this time to get close to her mother.

Mo Ruzhi and others were dissatisfied but did not dare to make mistakes. Now that Feng Xi is the young master of the palace, they can't offend them easily, not to mention the previous incident has made the prime minister disgusted, it's better to be well-behaved at this time.Li Yan'er still did not leave the house, and the prime minister did not force her.Li Yifei specially asked for leave today, and came back to wait for Fengxi's news.The old lady stayed with Ruan Hua, and the two of them were in the prime minister's room, waiting for Feng Xi to come back.

As soon as Feng Xi entered the room, she saw her grandmother and mother talking happily, so she couldn't help being happy too.

"Fengxi met grandmother, met mother."

The old lady called Fengxi to come forward with a smile, and held Fengxi's hand, "Fengxi, you have to take good care of yourself when you enter the palace, and write to your father if you have any difficulties!" The old lady said so, The corners of his eyes were a little wet.

Feng Xi nodded gratefully, "Don't worry, grandma, Feng Xi will take good care of herself."

Ruan Hua also looked at her daughter with some sadness, lamenting in her heart that she was too young to enter the palace.

"Niang and Hua'er, don't worry too much. Fengxi is still my daughter no matter what. The emperor will look at me on my side, so I think he will not treat Fengxi badly."

The prime minister entered the house, followed by Li Yifei.Li Yifei entered the room and saluted the old lady and Ruan Hua before standing aside without speaking.

Fengxi was moved, her father was really kind to her, and she was very happy to have such a family.

The whole family ate together in a joyful but reluctant mood. This time there were no Mo Ruzhi and others, only the old lady, the prime minister, Ruan Hua, Feng Xi and Li Yifei, but they ate very happily.During the meal, Ruan Hua always mentioned interesting stories about Feng Xi's childhood. The prime minister and the old lady were happy and felt guilty when they heard it. They had never participated in Feng Xi's childhood. Now that they finally recognized Feng Xi and were about to leave, they couldn't help but feel sad. But he didn't show it, because today is a good day.

While eating, someone came to the palace to announce the decree.Everyone stopped their chopsticks and went to the front hall to receive the order.

The one who came from the palace was the consular eunuch named Fu Gonggong, who was said to be someone close to the queen, holding the imperial decree in his hand at this time, speaking without humility.

"By the Queen's order, Li Fengxi, the daughter of the Li family, is gentle and quiet, with good morals. She was selected into the palace and granted the title of sixth-rank Fangyi to live in the Qianque Palace."

After Eunuch Fu finished speaking, he respectfully handed the imperial decree to Feng Xi, who accepted the imperial decree calmly.I thought she was at most a seventh-rank beauty, but I didn't expect it to be a sixth-rank beauty, which was a bit unexpected.The prime minister and others were also a little surprised, but they were more excited and joyful. Feng Xi was appointed a high position, so they were naturally happy for her.Only Li Yifei felt a little sour in his heart, but he knew he had no right to speak, so he could only force a smile.

"Master Fangyi, please bring a close maid to accompany us into the palace." Eunuch Fu was full of smiles, the prime minister had already taken care of it in private, so naturally this person was happy.

Feng Xi nodded, and Ning Tong stepped forward.Feng Xi said gently, "Eunuch, let's go now."

Eunuch Fu went out the door in response. He knew it was time for the little master to say goodbye to his family, so he waited outside.

Feng Xi turned around and looked at the old lady, prime minister, Ruan Hua, and Li Yifei, with moist eyes, "Feng Xi has entered the palace, grandmother and mother cherish their health, father should drink less alcohol, and Yifei needs to work harder."

All four of them nodded heavily.Feng Xi was relieved, turned around and went out, and got on the sedan chair from the palace, Ning Tong didn't get on the sedan chair, and stood beside the sedan chair, feeling a lot of sadness in her heart.All the people in Xiangfu watched the sedan chair drifting away, knowing they couldn't see it, so they all went back.

As the sedan chair was walking, suddenly a little sparrow flew over. Feng Xi heard that it was the little sparrow given by the man earlier, and was moved in her heart, she did not expect this little bird to be so loyal.

"My lord, it's Que'er!" Ning Tong said excitedly.

Feng Xi lifted the curtain, "Well, Ning Tong, you must be cautious in your words and deeds in the future, and don't be impatient."

Ningtong realized that her behavior was a little edgy just now, if she was in the prime minister's mansion, it would be fine, now it is different from the past, her own lady has been granted Fangyi, and she will be the empress of the palace in the future, the lady trusts her and takes her into the palace, She must not disappoint the lady, so she restrained herself after thinking about it.

"Understood, little master, Ning Tong will keep it in mind."

Feng Xi nodded in satisfaction and lowered the curtain.The sedan chair moved forward slowly, and the people in the sedan chair didn't know what it would be like to enter the palace, everything was still unknown.
