There is Room For the First Wife

Chapter 854: Enter the palace

There is room for the first assistant wife https://

At noon, Lu Jiao had a meal in the palace. After the meal, Xiao Wenyu went to handle the affairs of the state. Now that he has just ascended the throne, he has a lot of affairs to deal with, so it is difficult to have free time. Kong came to accompany Lu Jiao to talk and have a meal.

Lu Jiao was in the Queen's Palace, and after talking with Pei Yu for a while, she left the palace.

In the evening, an imperial decree was issued in the palace, the new emperor would choose his concubine, and the queen and Mrs.

With the decree, the entire capital became active.

There were very few women in the new emperor's harem, and the new emperor was young and promising, and he looked like a dragon and a phoenix. There were very few women in the boudoir in Beijing who were unwilling to enter the palace.

The Xie family is also very lively because of this will.

This time, His Majesty's choice of concubine was presided over by the Queen and Mrs. Zhou Guo. On the face of it, the Queen was the most important, but in fact, it was likely that Mrs. Zhou Guo had the final say.

She was the adoptive mother who raised His Majesty, and even the empress would not dare to embarrass Mrs. Zhou Guo too much, so she could win Mrs. Zhou Guo and be elected to the palace.

Not long after Lu Jiao came back, someone came to the door.

"Madam, Madam Zhao Guogong sent a post to visit Madam."

"Mrs. Qing Ninghou asks to see you."

"Cheng'en Houfu sent a post to visit Madam."

Lu Jiao glanced at Butler Xiao with a look of astonishment.

"The Chen family?"

Butler Xiao nodded. The daughter of the Chen family gave birth to His Majesty. After His Majesty ascended the throne this time, the Chen family was named a marquis. Now their family is called the Marquis of Cheng'en.

In fact, His Majesty originally wanted to give the Xie family a marquis, but Xie Yunjin stopped it. The Xie family doesn't need to add more icing on the cake now. If you want to give a marquis, you can give him the title after Xie Yunjin has returned home.

When Xiao Wenyu heard this, he suspended the gift, but the Chen family still gave him the title of Marquis.

In addition to bestowing the marquis, the uncle of the Chen family also entered the Ministry of Punishment as the head of the fourth rank.

The Chen family can be regarded as the upstarts who have been squeezed into the Great Zhou Dynasty because of His Majesty.

When Lu Jiao heard that the Chen family came to visit, it was naturally not good to see her.

"You send people back to Chen's house, and I welcome them to visit."

Mr. Chen is the husband of Xie Yunjin and the grandfather of His Majesty. The two of them should stand on the same front.

"Yes."

Butler Xiao responded, and then asked other people for instructions.

Lu Jiao raised her eyebrows strangely: "Why is the Duke Zhao's mansion coming to visit me?"

Butler Xiao glanced at Lu Jiao, and seeing that she didn't understand why, he quickly reported: "Madam, just before, the palace made a decree.

After listening to Butler Xiao's words, Lu Jiao suddenly understood that she wanted to follow her path.

Lu Jiao was speechless when she wanted to understand, and looked at Butler Xiao and replied, "If someone comes to visit again for this matter, you can say that you have no time to spare now. When you have time, you will visit each of them."

"Yes. Madam."

Now Lu Jiao doesn't need to be as aggrieved as before, not to mention that Xie Yunjin is the second assistant of Da Zhou's cabinet, but to say that she has also been conferred the title of Mrs. , so she doesn't need to aggrieve herself for those people.

Butler Xiao heard Lu Jiao's words and went out to answer.

The servants of the Zhao family and Wu family were a little unhappy when they heard the reply, but they didn't dare to show it.

The servants of the Chen family were quite happy when they heard what Butler Xiao said.

Lu Jiao originally thought that the Chen family would come over tomorrow, but she didn't expect their family to come over that night.

It was Mrs. Chen and the eldest daughter-in-law of the Chen family who came.

"I have seen Mrs. Zhou Guo."

Although the old lady is now Mrs. Chengenhou, Lu Jiao is His Majesty's adoptive mother. It is an indisputable fact that His Majesty is close to her. Even if the Chen family has a title, they are still very close to them.

So this time His Majesty chose a concubine, and the Chen family wanted to send a daughter into the palace, so that they could win over the relationship between their family and His Majesty.

Lu Jiao got up and helped Mrs. Chen: "Mother, don't be polite. In private, we won't talk about those vulgar manners."

After a few people sat down, Mrs. Chen looked at Lu Jiao and didn't know how to speak for a while. Lu Jiao didn't talk to her, and asked directly, "Miss is here today for His Majesty's choice of a concubine?"

Mrs. Chen looked at Mrs. Chen, and Mrs. Chen immediately got up and said with a smile: "I'm ashamed to say this, it's all my daughter's trouble. Ever since I met Your Majesty, this stubborn kind has been talking about His Majesty, just in time for His Majesty's election. Concubine, she just wanted to enter the palace to accompany His Majesty, so our mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have the cheeks to ask Madam for help."

When Lu Jiao heard what Mrs. Chen said, a playful smile appeared on the corner of her lips.

Mrs. Chen looked at her with a little guilty conscience. The fact that this person can cultivate your Majesty shows that she is very smart. She will not see through the Chen family's intentions.

The Chen family sent their daughter into the palace in order to win over the relationship between His Majesty and the Chen family, and it would be best to separate the relationship between His Majesty and the Xie family.

Their Chen family is His Majesty's serious foreign family, so what is the Xie family?

Of course, the Chen family's private thoughts~www.readwn.com~ Mrs. Chen will not show it.

But if she didn't show it, Lu Jiao could guess.

She looked at Madam Chen and Da Madam Chen, and said lightly, "Your Majesty's choice of concubines this time is to stabilize the court, and it is no surprise that the concubines chosen this time are the daughters of important officials in the court."

Lu Jiao's words were about to tell Mrs. Chen and Mrs. Chen nakedly that your family was not qualified to be selected.

Mrs. Chen and Mrs. Chen's expressions suddenly became subtle, and it took a long time before they said, "Can't Mrs. be accommodating?"

Lu Jiao smiled: "This is His Majesty's business, I can't be his lord, and I will not be his lord, but I will report to His Majesty what the Chen family means, if His Majesty intends to let the Chen family daughter enter the palace , it will order itself.”

Mrs. Chen and Mrs. Chen listened, they didn't know what to say for a while, and they always felt that there was something wrong with what they did.

But seeing that it was getting late, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law got up: "That's Mrs. Lao."

"It's alright, do you want to stay and finish dinner before leaving."

Mrs. Chen immediately shook her head: "No need, we're going back."

Lu Jiao sent them out, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law repeatedly told her to stay, so she instructed Steward Xiao to send Old Madam Chen and Da Madam Chen out.

The two just got into the Chen family carriage and left, Xie Yunjin came back, he got off the carriage, and just saw the Chen family carriage leaving, Xie Yunjin asked the housekeeper Xiao who greeted him in front of the door: "Is that the Chen family?"

"Yes, my lord, the old lady of the Chen family and Mrs. Chen came to visit the lady."

When Xie Yunjin heard this, he frowned. He thought about the matter of His Majesty's concubine. The Chen family wouldn't want to send their daughter to the palace, then they thought too much.
