Chapter 456: The harem is empty
"Only Jingzhou can weave such fine wool materials." Li Tong answered, and saw that Su Xin was obviously a little dissatisfied, and smiled: "The best Fangshenghua wool materials produced in Jingzhou are less than one pound, about 14 taels. Other places, there is not less than one pound of material. If you are new to the wool materials business, if you don't have enough eyesight, you must weigh the weight with a scale."
"What is this girl?" Queen Ning's heart moved slightly and asked as she looked at Princess Fu'an.
"The surname is Li, and the single name is Tong. I will follow Master Huining to practice the Lotus Sutra with me. I am considered my junior sister."
"Tung tree in the wutong?" Queen Ning immediately thought of the stack of veils and the exquisite tung characters drawn on the corner of the veil.
"Yes." Princess Fu'an answered.
Queen Ning said softly, looked at Li Tong, looked up and down, and then looked again. Li Tong felt that the hair on her back was about to stand up. Queen Ning looked up and down, and Princess Fu'an stared at Queen Ning and smiled.
"So it's the eldest princess' helper again, thank you." Queen Ning turned her head and looked at the eldest princess and said thankfully.
Princess Fu'an shook her head, "This matter has nothing to do with me. Although she is my junior sister, I can't control her."
Queen Ning looked at the eldest princess, then looked at Li Tong who was talking to the fifth prince. After a while, she let out a soft oh.
The fifth prince pulled Li Tong and said nonstop, Princess Fu'an and Empress Ning's words. Li Tong missed ten sentences after hearing one sentence. In this passage, he heard the sentence of Master Huining and the Lotus Sutra.
Queen Ning sat for more than a minute or two, drank two or three cups of tea, stood up and said goodbye, the fifth prince was reluctant to leave, "...Sister, please give me a gift, sister, when will you come next time? Remember to bring Sister Xiaoyou's prescription, and when I can go out, I will go and play with my sister..."
Queen Ning pulled the fifth prince who twisted his head and kept waving with Li Tong, and Princess Fu'an sat back to the tea table. Li Tong also sat back and turned her head to look carefully at Princess Fu'an's face.
"You didn't hear it just now?" Princess Fu'an looked at least not unhappy.
Li Tong shook his head, "I heard from the fifth brother."
"She came to me for two things. First, she planned to ask the emperor to promote Yang Concubine Yang and to one of the four concubines of Guishu Dexian. Second, the harem was empty and there was no one to serve the emperor. She planned to choose some noble ladies of the right age to enrich the harem."
Princess Fu'an raised her feet and stepped on the windowsill, smiling. After Li Tong was surprised for a moment, she also smiled, "Is this a mercy, or a troublemaker?"
"The emperor is only over forty, and it's early. She's the only one in the harem. What's the point? No matter how many tricks you have, there is no place to use it. After elevating Concubine Yang to one of the four concubines of Guishu Dexian, King Jin was put on fire. At least he could divide the eyes on the fifth prince and choose noble women to enrich the harem..."
Princess Fu'an sighed long, "Look, if this order is out, the Chaoli and the capital will be in chaos. I don't know how many people have to daydream, dreaming that their own girl will become the second Zhou family, and if they get pregnant a few more years or two..."
Princess Fu'an tsk, "Then the prince is busy."
"Did you agree?" Li Tong thought for a while, and it was really a mess in the harem connected to the inside.
"This is not something I agree or not!" Princess Fu'an gave Li Tong a blank look, "The Empress chooses a noble girl to enrich the harem for the emperor, so I can speak? In the future, your sister-in-law will give your brother a concubine and carry the room with her. Do you have to nod?"
"I don't need to nod, but if I refuse, this concubine will definitely not be able to carry her room." Li Tong continued with great politeness. Princess Fu'an looked at her with a look of contempt, "Do you think I am you? I am much more virtuous than you!"
Li Tong looked at Princess Fu'an, much more virtuous than her? Ha!
Princess Fu'an kept clicking on the windowsill. Li Tong looked at the dark green pomrose swaying on the shoe, then turned his head to look out the window, as if Princess Fu'an was a little irritated, frowned and asked, "Is there anything else?"
"Yeah." Princess Fu'an exclaimed: "If Concubine Yang was promoted, she would like to invite a fifth-rank or above woman from the capital to bring her noble daughters into the palace. First, we will celebrate Yang's well, and second, we will take a look at each noble daughter in advance. Please ask her to go and have a look."
"Did you agree?"
"I didn't agree! How could I join in this kind of fun, a foreigner who passed away from me, a priest who practiced in the past seven or eight years?" Princess Fu'an looked righteous and Li Tong slanted against her without saying anything. After a moment, Princess Fu'an sighed, "But, such a lively thing has not been around for more than ten years, so it would be really uncomfortable not to go and see it!"
Li Tong laughed and coughed, "Cough... Then go. The so-called success in practice is to be the unity of man and nature, and it is smooth."
Princess Fu'an raised her hand and covered her face, "I can't change my lively problem!"

The capital city, the restaurants and the family, the royal funerals passed by were not once or twice. They all know that as soon as Concubine Zhou’s death letter was posted, each family should be low-key and closed. The doors should be closed. There must be no singing, dancing and banquets in the month of the funeral. A month later, although he was a concubine, it would be logical to say that what would happen after the funeral was done, but Concubine Zhou came to posthumously named the queen, and the second was the prince’s biological mother. Whether it could do anything else could happen? Other families don’t know, but Mother Du was cautious about Ruanxianglou and did not dare to open the door.
A Luo was idle for a month and was bored. He pushed open the window and lay on the windowsill with Duoduo, knocking melon seeds to watch the fun downstairs.
"Miss, look, look!" Duoduo's eyes were very good. He saw Ning Yuan and others riding on the horse from afar. He pointed at Ning Yuan and a few others with one hand, and patted Aluo with the other hand, and the melon seeds fell all over the floor.
"Did you come here?" A Luo supported the windowsill with both hands, stretched his neck to look at Ning Yuan and others.
"It must have been to our house! I'll call my mother! Master Qi is here!" Duoduo was always optimistic, and he ran down with his skirt. Halfway down the building, he shocked everyone in the yard.
Mother Du smiled happily, looked at the door open, welcomed Ningyuan and Mo Qi, and the three of them on Saturday, ordered Duoduo to take them upstairs, and hurriedly asked the helpers from Feiyan Tower next door to quickly call back the people who were going home by her holiday.
It seems that Ruanxianglou can open the door to do business. At least it hasn’t been delayed in the first month of the year!
Aluo was so happy that she welcomed Ningyuan and the other two, and personally served to take off her clothes, take a mat, and serve tea and water.
