Chapter 262 The new concubine
Wu Liangdi opened her mouth and didn't react in surprise for a while. However, Yang, who was standing beside her, has always been her confidant, so she hurriedly said, "Look at our sister Wu is excited, why don't you thank me quickly."
Wu Liangdi reacted a little, but Song Anle said in time: "Wu Fei is pregnant, so thank you for your gratitude. Be careful of being tempted."
"Thank you for the grace of the eldest prince and the concubine's kindness." Wu Liangdi still stood up and nodded slightly and gestured.
Seeing that Gao Yuanshang seemed to be interested in promoting a concubine, Song Anle also said, "The new title of the eldest prince, Hu Xiaozhu, is also pregnant with the imperial heir. I wonder if he should also be promoted to a famous position?"
If Song Anle hadn't reminded him like this, Gao Yuanshang would have been promoted to Xiaozhu Hu, but after she said this, Gao Yuanshang said coldly: "Is it necessary to promote the title? It depends on the final word of my king."
Gao Yuanshang looked at Song Anle's eyes, as if he was warning her, and then he said in a blink of an eye: "Hu is a newcomer to the palace. Although he has a royal heir, his qualifications are insufficient and he will not be promoted for the time being."
Master Hu was full of hope, but he was completely knocked to the bottom of the valley, so she stood aside with a look of dejection.
In the end, Chen Liangdi was promoted to the concubine, Zhang was the Congyi, and Liao was the Congyi, and the others were promoted to the first class in their original position. In the end, as long as Hu Xiaozhu was not promoted, you can imagine how much damage Song Anle's words caused.
The promotion matter has come to an end, but Gao Yuanshang has not dispersed everyone for a long time. But after their congratulations, Gao Yuanshang once again said, "I have another thing. In order to prosper the Northern Dynasties, I decided to promote another group of new people."
Gao Yuanshang raised his head and ordered, "Bring everyone up."
Then several legitimate women walked in in an orderly manner, nodded and said, "See the eldest prince and the princess."
Song Anle recognized that Bai Huaqing was also among the love at first sight. She frowned and subconsciously glanced at Gao Yuanshang from the bottom of her eyes. No wonder Gao Yuanshang suddenly wanted to be promoted to a concubine inexplicably, probably because she was preparing for Bai Huaqing.
Since Song Anle is the master of his harem, it is usually her duty to promote newcomers, so Gao Yuanshang did not forget to ask her for advice. He said in a blink of an eye: "The Empress, how about the newcomers?"
Gao Yuanshang did not forget to ask for her opinions, so Song Anle naturally couldn't directly refute his face, so she said gently: "The people the eldest prince likes are outstanding, but the newcomers in Yongfu Palace have been frequently awarded recently. Is the eldest prince a little too hasty in this move?"
Gao Yuanshang said coldly, "The imperial concubine has always hoped that I would consider more children. Now that I am a new beauty, is the imperial concubine thinking too much?"
"I dare not think there are too many newcomers, but I am afraid that the eldest prince should take care of his health."
While keeping Bai Huaqing, Gao Yuanshang tried his best to avoid conflicts with Song Anle, so he said: "Since the imperial concubine is so polite to me, I will choose two of them and I will not let it go."
Song Anle was fighting for the opportunity, so of course she would not list Bai Huaqing as one, so she casually said: "I think the two beauties on the left are good, so what if I'd better be promoted to these two?"
"The imperial concubine only cares about the people in front of her, and at least one person should be left for me to choose."
Even though Song Anle knew that the so-called person Gao Yuanshang would definitely be Bai Huaqing, she nodded and said, "I'm rude."
"I think the woman in red looks familiar, so she is the only one." Gao Yuanshang's chosen person was obviously Bai Huaqing, because she was the only one wearing water red clothes.
Song Anle could not compete with Gao Yuanshang in public, and it was just the beginning of the promotion. Even after being granted, she could still abolish her reputation or prevent them from leaving a house. Everything could be avoided. So she said calmly: "I wonder what the eldest prince plans to give them?"
Gao Yuanshang calculated that Song Anle had no choice but to do anything to him, so he set up such a scene, "I will arrange the person I choose, and the imperial concubine will do it by herself."
"Since she is a newcomer, she should start with a commoner, but the eldest prince is rarely a beauty, so it's better to start with her concubine." Song Anle originally wanted to put pressure on Gao Yuanshang, but the title she gave was not high, which left room for Gao Yuanshang. I guess he couldn't give Feng Baihua a higher reputation, after all, they were all newcomers.
Gao Yuanshang was still hesitating in his heart. He should have given Bai Hua the position of love concubine, but he didn't necessarily have the ability to give it to him. So he casually said, "You, why don't you thank the imperial concubine quickly."
The woman who was granted a title quickly crawled on the ground and kowtowed, saying, "I'll thank the imperial concubine for her kindness."
Song Anle has always maintained her gentle attitude, "Get up, I will serve the eldest prince very well in the future, and strive to win glory for our dynasty as soon as possible."
"I will keep in mind the imperial concubine's teachings." The woman stood up, nodded and stepped aside.
Song Anle turned to Gao Yuanshang again and asked, "I wonder how the eldest prince plans to grant the title?"
"Although they are both newcomers, they are still the ones I like, so I will give her the position of good dear, which is considered a match for me." Gao Yuanshang has already won the highest reputation for Bai Huaqing. If she is given a concubine, it will not only arouse Song Anle's dissatisfaction, but others have also discussed it. Instead of causing the result to change, he simply decided directly.
"It is also her blessing for the eldest prince to like this person; why don't you thank me quickly." Song Anle just wanted to experience Bai Huaqing that even if Gao Yuanshang could protect her, it would be a barely partial protection.
"I'm thanking the eldest prince for his kindness." Bai Hua's heart was filled with all kinds of emotions and kowtowed deeply on the ground.
"Quickly calm down and stay in the side hall of Yongfu Palace in the future." Gao Yuanshang felt completely relaxed when he passed Song Anle's level.
"The eldest prince probably forgot that the side hall of Yongfu Palace is the residence where the Empress rewards the concubines. If it is redistributed, it seems that it is not appropriate?"
Gao Yuanshang originally planned to let Bai Huaqing stay by his side, but now that Song Anle said this, he really couldn't think of a more suitable place.
"As far as I know, there is no suitable place to live in Yongfu Palace, and the newcomer is a good wife after all, so it is better to live in Changle Palace first, so I will take care of her." Song Anle can only reverse it. In this way, not only will Bai Huaqing be kept in her present, but also avoid a head-on conflict with Gao Yuanshang. It is a great blessing for her unfortunate.
Song Anle secretly investigated Yongfu Palace thoroughly, and probably had prepared for it. He could not ignore her residence just because he protected Bai Hua's love. Wouldn't that be disrespectful to her reputation? So he reluctantly said: "Then according to the imperial concubine, two newcomers will temporarily live in Changle Palace."
Everyone dispersed as they were talking. Some people were satisfied with their promotion, but of course some were dissatisfied. However, the best dissatisfied protagonist must be the love of the silly.
She thought Gao Yuanshang would keep her by her side, but she didn't want to be taken by Song Anle at the moment. If she had known this would be the result, she would rather be stayed by Gao Yuanshang by her identity as a palace servant.
Song Anle arranged the newly-fended ** to live in, leaving only her and Bai Huaqing. After meeting each other alone for a long time, the sisters were already strangers.
"Are you satisfied with this result?" Song Anle's indifferent tone and expression was still as gentle as before.
Bai Huaqing said coldly: "This is only temporary, don't try to tie me around."
She finally gradually realized that she could control the fate of others in different positions, just like she wanted to leave Song Anle's sight at this time, but was bound by her nose. This is the difference in their identities.
Song Anle's heart skipped a beat. Looking at the cold and frosty sisters, she could no longer see her innocence. While she was sad, she also said in a low voice: "Why is it said to be binding rather than protection?"
Bai Huaqing said emotionally: "From the day you took away my happiness, you are no longer the sister who protects me."
Even though she said this, she still couldn't forget the little things in her past, if it weren't for the beautiful things, she might not have cared so much or resented so much.
Song Anle used a calm expression to hide her inner pain. She was used to such concealment. Even if every disguise was a difficult time for her, she could still say with a calm heart: "You only care about what you have lost, but have you ever thought about whether those things you have lost belong to you or whether they have belonged to you."
If Bai Huaqing could really imagine Song Anle's meaning, she might not insist on being in her own paranoia, but this is a common sense of expression that everyone has.
When you lose something, the things you love include people, your most common reaction is why you lose them, who took away you, and then you will search for answers in this question. When you find that one day you actually don’t belong to you, or you have never belonged to you, you will know that the answer you are blindly looking for is just a shackle that you tied to yourself.
Bai Huaqing was still tied to her own shackles, so she said with a little excitement: "If it weren't for you, at least Brother Yuan Shang could belong to me, but you just used those so-called promises to stop us. In fact, it was just a trap you set for selfishness."
Song Anle said solemnly, "Qing'er, I can tell you clearly that even without me, you will never be happy with Gao Yuanshang. One day you will be glad that I have done, but I don't want to have that day."
Regarding the relationship between Bai Huaqing and Gao Yuanshang, if only one day she would bury this secret in her heart until she died. This is her promise to Bai Huaqing's mother and the only secret between them.
