Although the gift list from the Ji family was made public, Brother Jiu was not in a hurry to meet the Ji family.

"Try to give them a try, otherwise they really think that money can help the gods..."

Brother Jiu said to Shu Shu.

You can't let merchants look down upon you.

That is to say, no one puts down their arrogance and competes with the Ji family.

Otherwise, like a pearl, if you release the slaves, you will become the richest man in Zhili.

As for whose hands the silver fell into, there is no need to say.

Shu Shu pointed to the orange grove on Dongshan Island in Suzhou and said, "Sir, this Dongshan Island is in Taihu Lake. I really can get whatever I want. I'll arrange for people to build a separate courtyard here later."

Then we can arrange for people to go there and find a suitable place for pearl cultivation.

Brother Jiu leaned over and said in surprise: "I forgot about this. What a coincidence."

However, thinking about the emperor's reaction, Brother Jiu said: "Don't worry, we will wait and see in another two years, we have to keep it a secret."

Thinking about how the emperor's father wanted to settle the score with him today in order to let his young wife eat Dongzi food, he felt a little bored.

He held Shu Shu in his arms and said: "The palace is no longer my home, it is Khan Amma's home. When we act in the future, we should take care of ourselves first, and then think about other things."

Wait for another two years until the Ministry of Internal Affairs becomes conspicuous and the yamen that are prone to corruption are separated.

Cowpox will be promoted next year, and he has accumulated several credits for this achievement.

He wanted to know what his first seal was.

Huh, if the love between father and son was good enough, he would be willing to give money to the emperor's father.

If the quality is not enough, then this is a way to make money, just hold it in your hands.

Shu Shu patted his back.

It was more than a year after I moved out that I understood this truth.

Although they have not yet been formally ennobled, they are indeed candidates for the clan. Every prince is an ancestor of a new clan.

Brother Jiu said: "I am happy with my concubines and want to move to the main hall of Qiang Palace. I guess the concubines and concubines in the palace will feel uncomfortable."

Shu Shu thought about the ranking of greetings in Ningshou Palace, and said: "The house is dead, but the people are alive. Unless you are promoted to a noble concubine, the ranking will still be lower than that of several concubines. The empress will not take it to heart.

.”

If it were earlier years, it would be hard to say.

The palace is a place where people are ranked by seniority, and not just by seniority. The emperor's favor is at the top of the list.

For example, Concubine Yi was granted the title of concubine if she had no children, and Concubine De was granted concubine alone and came from behind, and Concubine Concubine was granted concubine before Concubine Rong.

But now that the princes have grown up and been ennobled, and the concubines are still involved in the prince's brother's dignity, they will not easily let the people behind him come to the front.

Brother Jiu said: "Khan Amma was born again. Wang Guiren has been in the palace for more than ten years and has given birth to two princes. Before that, he was a concubine. He was granted the title of Guiren last year."

In contrast, those who enter the palace are regarded as nobles, and those who are granted concubines after one year will be promoted too quickly.

Hearing Guiren Wang, Shu Shu remembered something.

The eighteenth prince in history...

If he was still reincarnated into Wang Guiren's belly, he would be the 19th prince, born in the 40th year of Kangxi's reign.

It seems that there will be another good news about Kangxi...

The news in the palace has never been hidden from anyone.

Because it was less than three months old, it was not widely publicized, but the main hall of Chengqian Palace would never be swept away for no reason.

Everyone has guesses in their minds.

On the 15th day, the atmosphere in Ningshou Palace to greet guests was a bit strange.

The six concubines and four concubines who had seats earlier were the ten chiefs. Zhongcui Palace was sealed, and the honor concubines could not be demoted, so one seat was vacated.

Later, Concubine Tong was in low spirits, so the Queen Mother stopped her greetings and asked her to take a good rest, then removed another seat.

There are currently eight seats, and I am at the bottom with my concubine.

But both the sitting concubines and the standing nobles looked at the concubines.

Concubine Yi and Concubine Hui looked at each other with normal expressions.

With their status, it is impossible for them to be promoted, and they have given up on it a long time ago.

Concubine De touched the beads on her left wrist, feeling uncomfortable.

There are six east and west palaces and twelve courtyards, and the status is also divided into high and low.

It sounds like Chengqian Palace and Yikun Palace are the best, and they are prepared for noble concubines, but in fact, the quality of this courtyard depends on the distance from Qianqing Palace.

Jingren Palace and Yongshou Palace are closer to Qianqing Palace, so in theory, the location of these two courtyards is no less than that of Chengqian Palace and Yikun Palace.

This is why Empress Xiaoyi lived in Jingren Palace when she was the imperial concubine, while Concubine Wenxi lived in Yongshou Palace.

Now that Concubine Tong lives in Yongshou Palace, everyone has nothing to say. Who named her Tong? She is the emperor's cousin.

Jingren Palace is vacant, and no one cares about this courtyard.

Two generations of empresses of the Tong family have lived there. Unless there is another imperial concubine or a new empress, no one is qualified to live in that courtyard.

Concubine Yi lived in Yikun Palace, also known as Zhengyanshun. She was the most beloved concubine and gave birth to four princes.

But with my concubine...

Who can be convinced...

If Concubine De was just feeling uneasy, concubines Xi and Liang were on pins and needles.

The main hall of Chengqian Palace has been cleaned up, and when the concubines have successful births, one concubine will not be able to escape, and the position will be above them.

The concubine Xi felt sad, while the concubine Liang felt guilty and uneasy, feeling sorry for her eighth prince.

As for the junior Crown Princess and Prince Fujin, we can only pretend that we have not seen them.

The concubine's mother-in-law was pregnant and gave birth to her brother-in-law, so it was not their turn to interfere.

The queen mother here was smiling and ignored the concubines' eyebrows.

Many children mean blessings, and no brother is too many.

It's just that it's "March 9" weather, it's cold outside, and there's snow. Even though the eunuchs are sweeping the snow, the road is still slippery.

The Empress Dowager lovingly said to her concubines: "I'll stop sending greetings before the New Year. We'll talk about when to send greetings after the New Year."

The concubine stood up, her cheeks slightly red, and replied: "Thank you, empress..."

The two of them answered each other in Mongolian.

Shu Shu sat behind Concubine Yi and glanced at Concubine He.

This is also a comprehensive person.

She remembered clearly that when He and his concubines first entered the palace, they did not know Mongolian.

In the thirty-seventh year of the Northern Tour, when Qifu Jin was learning Mongolian, the concubines who were still nobles began to learn Mongolian.

It's been two and a half years now, and look like this, there's no problem with daily listening and speaking.

Come to think of it, this one was one of the most favored concubines in the last years of Kangxi's reign. First she was given the title of concubine without any children, and then she was given the title of concubine without any children. Good luck lies behind her.

If you are just young and beautiful, your love will not last that long, and you still have a considerate temperament.

You know, the great promises of the Qianqing Palace were all selected beauties, including the selected beauties of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the Han women presented by Jiangnan in recent years, but they were all half masters and half slaves.

After the greetings were completed, the sisters-in-law left Ningshou Palace.

Qi Fujin couldn't hold it in anymore, so he held Shu Shu's arm and said: "Now that I'm pregnant, my dignity is still behind..."

Shu Shu did not answer, but said: "It's hard to talk about this."

She understood what Qi Fujin meant.

Who said Kangxi was different from other emperors? He was more affectionate.

Concubine Rong was favored in her early years and gave birth six times in ten years.

Concubine Yi and Concubine De came from behind. The former gave birth to three sons in ten years, while the latter gave birth to three sons and three daughters in ten years.

Also, Concubine Min and Guiren Wang both had children in succession.

Even before the prince Hebi came to the throne, he had already decided on a concubine.

After the prince is born and has children in the future, how can he be promoted?

Sanfujin, Sifujin, Wufujin and others, who are either older or have a stable temperament, do not mention this.

San Fujin and Si Fujin said, "Do you still have '100 Days of Wine' in your house?"

Sifujin was born on September 20th, and when little brother's "100th Day" happened to be New Year's Eve.

On the day of family reunion, there is no way to serve wine.
