Qin Hanzhen was quite happy to have one of the dowry girls around him whom he could depend on for life.

She told Lianshi about Agui's proposal, and Lianshi was not surprised at all, but was a little surprised. She knew that there had been a story between the two of them for a long time. It was probably when Agui returned to the palace several times recently.

, you have had some contact with Lianshi, are you attracted? It seems that the marriage of ancient people does not require a long love process. They understand each other clearly, meet each other a few times, and if they feel that they are suitable, they can directly talk about marriage. But this seems to be

On the other hand, it also shows that Agui is serious about Lianshi. They are consensual, which is a good marriage. How can Qin Hanzhen not welcome her?

In late October, Qin Hanzhen completed his five-month period of small meritorious service and filial piety. When Xu and Qin Song added up their period of minor meritorious service and filial piety, it actually lasted nearly six months. After that, he was busy with work.

Yes, it was the Emperor's longevity gift. However, even in the midst of her busy schedule, she did not forget to instruct her subordinates to invite a Mr. Yin and Yang to choose an auspicious day for Agui and Hasumi to formally conclude their marriage agreement.

Zhao Mo was grateful for Agui's loyalty for many years. This was the first person among his confidants to get married, so he planned to arrange a wedding for Agui. Qin Hanzhen naturally could not object to Zhao Mo's suggestion.

Therefore, the wedding will take some time to prepare, and it is estimated that it will have to wait until after the first month of next year.

However, the waiting time is longer, just in time to prepare a dowry for Lianshi. Qin Hanzhen has notified Lianshi's relatives in Chengenhou Mansion and Yongjiahou Mansion. Everyone is happy for her, even the seventh aunt and eight aunts are clamoring to do it for her.

She has prepared a generous dowry. Coupled with the gift from Qin Hanzhen, Lianshi is destined to marry with great splendor. Not only Suyang County Prince's Mansion, but also the two princes' mansions of the Qin family, as well as the second bedroom, all

All the girls and daughters-in-law who heard the news were not envious of her.

Lianshi is usually quiet, always immersed in work, and is very popular. She did not become impetuous because she was about to marry a decent and powerful steward in the palace. Anyway, she worked harder and even took the initiative to report illness.

Feng'er was worried that she would be working too hard, so he advised her to take more rest, so that everyone could share the burden of taking over the class. But she said: "The princess asked me to do this before the year before.

There is no need to come back after the new year, and I will stay at home to be married. There are not many days left for me to serve the princess, so let me do more things. Don’t worry, I know what I know and won’t tire myself out. In fact, we

There are many people but not much work. Even if one person does the work of two people, how tired can he be?"

Seeing her insistence, Feng'er stopped trying to persuade her. He just asked the little girls in the courtyard to help take care of Lian Shi.

He asked someone to help Lianshi with the work and shared part of the work quietly.

When Lianye went to check on Lianrui's illness in private, he advised her: "You are just a little Fenghan, you will be fine after a while. Go back to your errand and don't work here. If anyone sees that you are not seriously ill,

I suspect that you just complained of illness because you were unhappy because of Lianshi's good marriage. Wouldn't it be asking people to gossip about you? Then the friendship between sisters for many years will be gone, so why are you doing this?!"

Lian Rui coughed a few times and glared at her: "I'm really sick! I'm not pretending! Besides, I'm not angry just because Lian Shi got a good marriage. I..." She bit her lip and couldn't continue.

She couldn't admit that she was really hit. Although she only had a mediocre relationship with Guanshi, he was indeed a good husband candidate. She thought that there was no chance for Guanshi Shou, but she could still think about Guanshi.

She tried to think of a way, but Lianshi caught the person without saying a word. She was still dreaming!

Lianye didn't know what Lianrui was thinking, and still said: "I don't care if you are really sick or fake, you have to get better quickly. Don't ask Lianshi to work for you anymore, and drag everyone down to help."

You do your work. Also, from now on, don’t look down on Feng’er anymore. You always find fault with Feng’er, but she is generous in her work, has a cheerful personality, and is sincere in her treatment of others. There is nothing wrong with her. It would be me.

If Shou is in charge, she will like her more instead of being charmed by your attentiveness."

"You -" Lian Rui was almost mad at Lian Ye. But Lian Ye left the words and got up and left the room. Lian Rui couldn't scold her even if she wanted to, so she could only turn her head and cover her head with a quilt to give birth.

I felt sulky, and when the anger subsided, I slowly began to reflect on myself.

Naturally, Qin Hanzhen didn't know the little girls' little thoughts. As long as they didn't go out of their way, she would always give them a lot of freedom, and her control was not strict. Besides, because of the matter of the Supreme Emperor Wanshou, she still had

There are many things to be busy with. She has not been to the palace for nearly half a year. Now, in addition to serving, she naturally has to go to various palaces. The Empress Dowager needs to go to pay her respects, and so does Wang Taibin and others.

Go and say hello, Princess Minshun also needs to visit, and more importantly - the new queen Cai Yuanzhen, Qin Hanzhen also wants to have her first visit.

Nowadays, the layout of the palace has changed. After the new king ascended the throne, the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother's concubines still stayed in Cining Palace and Shoukang Palace. The Emperor took refuge in the newly renovated east side of the palace.

The good Ningshou Palace moved all the harem to Shou'an Palace behind Shoukang Palace, asking them to accompany the Empress Dowager and others so that they could be clean. The Qianqing Palace, located in the center of the palace, was naturally led by Xin

The six east and west palaces where you lived were also vacated. Since Kunning Palace could no longer be inhabited, the new queen Cai Yuanzhen moved into the adjacent Chengqian Palace. The new king's only harem concubine, Chen Bin, moved into Yi

Kun Palace. The rest of the palace courtyards are now vacant. Except for a small number of palace servants and eunuchs left to guard, there is no one else waiting.

Therefore, it is still a little quiet inside the palace now.

Qin Hanzhen walked all the way and felt that there were a lot less people in the palace. She expected that the palace first let a group of palace people out, and then moved the palace. No wonder it was so quiet. She still walked on the main road, and

It's fine if someone from the palace is there to guide you. If it were in a more remote place, even in broad daylight, it would probably be a bit scary, right?

Qin Hanzhen was thinking wildly for a while, and then he saw Chen Concubine and a group of people walking from the direction of Chengqian Palace. It seemed that they had just greeted Empress Cai and were about to return to their own palace. Chen Concubine looked very good.

They were all well-dressed, with smiles on their faces, chatting with the palace attendants behind them. They were followed by a wet nurse, who was holding a child. This must be the second daughter of the emperor who was not yet one year old.

Naturally, Concubine Chen also recognized Qin Hanzhen. When she saw her, she greeted her with a smile: "Is Princess Suyang going to pay her respects to the Queen? Your Majesty is in a good mood right now. Go quickly."

Qin Hanzhen smiled and thanked her, said a few words to her politely, praised the little princess a few more words, and then said goodbye to each other.

Although she was not familiar with Concubine Chen, Qin Hanzhen could tell that her good looks and good mood were not faked, and were not forced at all. This showed that she and Cai Yuanzhen, the concubine, got along quite harmoniously.

As a woman married to the emperor, it is already good to live such a peaceful life. It is really a blessing that there are fewer people in the harem and the concubines are more simple and honest.

Qin Hanzhen sighed secretly in her heart, but did not dare to tell her. She just quietly followed the palace people to Chengqian Palace, and saw Empress Cai Cai Yuanzhen who had been waiting in the main hall for a long time.

When Empress Cai saw Qin Hanzhen, her eyes burst with joy and she stood up to greet her. Qin Hanzhen hurriedly took a few steps forward and bowed down: "I, my concubine, Princess Qin of Suyang County, pay my respects to the Queen."

As he said this, he made a big bow.

Empress Cai hurriedly supported her and said: "You are not an outsider, please excuse yourself!"

Qin Hanzhen actually has no interest in paying homage here and there, but today is different from the past. Living in a clan, there are still some rules that must be observed, even if it is just to protect himself and avoid the suspicion of the superiors and unnecessary rumors.

.

She declined Empress Cai's grace very solemnly and said: "Etiquette cannot be abolished. I know that the Queen is merciful, but I cannot rely on the Queen's favor and neglect the etiquette. If I develop a habit, I will be in trouble in the future.

Being rude to your Majesty in front of others, isn't that the source of trouble? I understand your Majesty's intentions, and I am extremely grateful. But the more this happens, the more I must abide by the rules and be sensible."

Of course, Empress Cai understood what she meant and couldn't help but sigh. She stood there uneasily and accepted Qin Hanzhen's gift. After she finished the ceremony, Empress Cai immediately helped her up and held her hand with a smile.

Sitting down at the tea table: "Well, now that the national and family rituals have been completed, and all the rules have been followed, no one will bother me anymore. You and I are not outsiders, and now we are even more intimate, so we can feel free to do so.

There are no outsiders in my palace now, so you don’t have to worry about anyone talking too much."

When Qin Hanzhen entered the door, he discovered that the people in the house now, except for Cai Yuanzhen's maids, were two familiar maids from the East Palace. They were the confidants of the new king, and they were naturally given to Queen Cai by the new king.

Of course, these two maids will not talk too much about the granddaughter of Xinjun's uncle. Qin Hanzhen can really relax.

She smiled, then followed Empress Cai's instructions, relaxed her posture, no longer straightened her back, and spoke in a reserved manner. She asked Empress Cai in a low voice: "How have you gotten used to it after entering the palace?"

?”

Empress Cai sighed and smiled: "Besides not being able to go out, there's nothing else. I'm almost used to it." She held Qin Hanzhen's hand and said, "I want to thank you. If you hadn't told me those things, I would never have done it."

It's impossible to get used to it so quickly, and there might even be some jokes and petty grudges. Even Princess Minshun's place won't be as harmonious as it is now."

Qin Hanzhen did mention Princess Shun's preferences and taboos to Empress Cai, and it seemed that they were put to good use. She smiled and said: "It is a good thing that the empress and the princess can live in harmony, and the royal family is in harmony. Concubine

My heart is also happy."

She then told Empress Cai: "My concubine's sister-in-law, Mrs. Yu, has also been thinking about my empress. Unfortunately, it is inconvenient at the moment. I have to wait until next year to pay my respects to my empress."

Empress Cai sighed: "I have been thinking about you. Everything is fine in the palace, but it is not as convenient as before to see relatives and friends again..." A trace of sadness flashed between her eyebrows, but it soon appeared again

He smiled and said, "Don't mention this. I have recently started to borrow books from the palace collection and found many precious ancient books. I really wish I could live in the library palace! The emperor was afraid that I would read books and not even eat, so he gave them to me.

An excellent Guqin for my entertainment. The sound of the Qin is extremely beautiful, which I have only seen in my life. It’s rare for you to come here, why don’t you accompany me to enjoy it together?”

Qin Hanzhen said with a smile: "It's my wish, but I dare not invite you to listen." He accompanied Empress Cai to appreciate the guqin with great interest.
