Fu Heng nodded slightly, one day he would rely on his own ability to become a highly respected minister and protect the people he said he wanted to protect.

The next day, everyone left camp, but Wei Ning'er was still sitting in the carriage with the princess. The eldest brother seemed to regard Wei Ning'er as his Fujin who had never been with him, and often rode to the carriage to want to talk to her.

Wei Ning'er never talked to him. Ever since she heard from the princess that her eldest brother told the emperor that he wanted to marry her, she was extremely disappointed in her eldest brother. Afterwards, rumors spread all over the sky, making Wei Ning'er even more angry.

At this moment, she wished she could kick her eldest brother so far away that she would not pay attention to him.

"Ning'er, don't be silent. I shouldn't have told this matter before you nodded..." The eldest brother was still talking to himself outside.

Wei Ning'er's ears were almost ringing with pain. She even didn't understand why Yong Huang, as the emperor's eldest son, might have the chance to inherit the throne in the future, would pester her as a little palace maid.

"Brother, please don't come and tell me this. I have a headache!" Wei Ning'er finally couldn't listen anymore.

"Brother, if you don't leave, I'll be rude to you. You'll be squawking in front of our ears like a fly all day long. I'll be annoyed if you don't leave!" the princess roared.

"I sincerely apologize!" The elder brother felt aggrieved.

"Sincerity? You are making the matter darker and darker. Forget it, I don't want to talk to you anymore. If you don't leave, I will sue Emperor Ama!" The princess took out her trump card.

"I'm leaving!" As long as the princess cries, he will be scolded by Huang Ama, so naturally he doesn't want to cause trouble.

"This princess only now knows that my eldest brother is so annoying, but Ning'er... my eldest brother seems to really care about you. Look at him, regardless of his dignity as a prince, he humbles himself to beg you.

, this is the first time this princess has seen her." The princess smiled in Ning'er's ear.

"Princess, you don't know that in your heart..."

"I know, please stop talking!" the princess said immediately. She was really afraid of Ning'er.

Wei Ning'er nodded slightly and said no more, but she was worried day by day, fearing that the emperor would really propose marriage and give her to her eldest brother.

She didn't dare to disobey the emperor's orders, even if she was not afraid of death, but as for Fu Heng, Fu Heng had too many ties, and she couldn't bear to let go of her mother.

It took twenty days for everyone to return to the capital from Mulan Paddock after a long journey.

It was already the end of September, and on the way back to Beijing, Wei Ning'er spent her seventeenth birthday in silence.

When he returned to Beijing this time, the emperor ordered him to go to the Old Summer Palace instead of returning to the Forbidden City.

The Old Summer Palace is located in the western suburbs of Beijing. It was built during the reign of Emperor Kangxi.

The Old Summer Palace was originally a garden given to Emperor Yongzheng by the Holy Ancestor Kangxi. After Emperor Yongzheng ascended the throne, he built it into a palace, and he often lived in the Old Summer Palace since then.

After the current emperor came to the throne, he also greatly expanded the Old Summer Palace, making this palace even more beautiful.

The Old Summer Palace reflects the supremacy of imperial power everywhere. The place where the emperor handled government affairs and where the royal family lived is the core of the Old Summer Palace.

The emperor handled government affairs in the Qinzheng Qinxian Hall on weekdays. The Qinzheng Qinxian Hall is the front room of the West Nuan Pavilion of the Yangxin Hall and is located to the east of the Zhengda Guangming Hall.

The court and the harem are separated by a huge artificial lake. The shape of the lake is the outline of the Qing Dynasty. Nine artificial islands are distributed along the lake. The palaces surrounded by the nine islands are where the emperor lived and are known as

For Jiuzhou Qingyan.

To the east of Qingyan in Jiuzhou is the "Heaven and Earth Family Spring", which is the bedroom of the queen and concubines. It has several large and small courtyards and a separate palace gate.

In the year when she first entered the palace, Wei Ning'er never came to the Old Summer Palace with her masters, but she only came there for a while last year.

After being nursed for a few days, Wei Ning'er's injuries gradually recovered. In addition, the Old Summer Palace was pleasant and beautiful, and she gradually put the crisis caused by her elder brother behind her.

On this day, the Queen Mother sent someone to the garden where the Queen lived to announce that Wei Ning'er had gone to Changchun Fairy Hall to meet the Queen Mother.

"Your Majesty..." Wei Ning'er looked at the Queen, her heart agitated.

"It should be for the eldest brother's business, I will go with you!" the queen said solemnly.

"I want to go too!" The princess also wanted to join in the fun and help Wei Ning'er.

"Let's go. Whether it's a blessing or a curse, you'll find out when you go!" the queen sighed.

When Wei Ning'er heard what she said, her heart tightened even more.

When they arrived at the Changchun Immortal Pavilion where the Queen Mother lived, Wei Ning'er was really shocked by the battle in front of her. It turned out that the ladies from all the palaces had arrived.

"Wish you the best of luck to the Queen!"

"Happy Grandmother!"

"May the Queen Mother be blessed!"

The Queen, Princess, and Wei Ning'er entered the main hall and saluted the Queen Mother.

"Everyone, get up!" The Queen Mother seemed to be in a good mood.

"May the Queen be blessed with good fortune!" All the concubines also sent their greetings to the Queen.

"No gifts!" The Queen smiled slightly and sat down next to the Queen Mother.

"Queen, I called everyone here today because of Yonghuang's affairs. That child lost his mother when he was a child. It's so pitiful. As his queen, you must also care about his affairs.

"Well, the Ai family is getting old and they are a little unable to do what they want!" The Queen Mother seemed to be a little dissatisfied with the Queen in her words.

"What Huang Er Niang said is that I have been thinking about it these days. Yonghuang is not young anymore and it is time to start a family. I came in and was also looking for daughters from our noble Manchu family. There are a few.

I like it, but I don’t know if Yong Huang will like it?" the queen said with a smile.

When the Queen Mother heard this, her eyes lit up and she thought to herself, it turned out that the Queen had kept it in mind, but the Ai family had wrongly blamed her.

"Okay, the Queen is still interested!" The Queen Mother held the Queen's hand and smiled.

"Empress Dowager, I have also found a lot of concubines for my eldest brother!" the imperial concubine said with a sweet smile.

"Okay, you love Yonghuang so much, and the Ai family is relieved. Concubine Zhe will be grateful to you if you know her!" After saying this, the Queen Mother said to the eunuch Ma Renyi beside her: "Go and ask the eldest brother to come over!"

"Yes!" Ma Renyi immediately took the order and left.

The Queen Mother then looked at Wei Ning'er who was beside the princess and looked at her carefully. Seeing that she could not see clearly with her eyebrows lowered and her eyes lowered, she said: "Wei Ning'er, come to the Ai family!"

Wei Ning'er was startled. The princess touched her lightly, and then she came to her senses and knelt down in front of the Queen Mother.

"Raise your head and let the Aijia take a closer look. I don't know what kind of demon is possessed by that child Yonghuang. He has come to beg the Aijia again and again to give you to him!" the Queen Mother said with a smile.

Wei Ning'er's heart trembled when she heard this. She must have been looked down upon by the Queen Mother who was born in Baoyi. Although there were many empresses present who were born in Baoyi, such as the Imperial Concubine, she was born in Baoyi. Therefore, when she entered the palace in her early years, she was born in Baoyi.

She could only be a concubine, not even a concubine. Although her Ama was already a minister of the imperial court, her birth could not be changed. It was only later that her Ama made meritorious service and was raised a flag, and she became a Concubine.
