With this bead, Zhao Yunshan's leg pain problem can slowly get better, so many years of backache, can no longer trouble her.

"Since master Qian is so sincere, it's hard for me to say anything, but it depends on people and heaven. Whether things can be done or not depends on the fortune of your Qian family." Zhao Yunshan sat up from the chair and Qian Jubao quickly handed the box up.

When he put the bead in the hands of the empress dowager, Qian Jubao was flattering again: "empress dowager, this thing is my money's filial piety to you. As long as the Empress Dowager can say two words for my money's family in the matter of managing the salt management right, I'll go through fire and water in the future, and the Empress Dowager will be the leader."

The Qian family's financial resources in Dashun can't be underestimated. Compared with the Yue family, which is as smelly and hard as a stone in the pit, it's really much better. What's more, after Zhao Yunshan's 100 years, the Qian family will be a supporter of lian'er. If the official salt management right falls to the Qian family, it will be much better than the Yue family, Zhao Yunshan naturally understood the truth that fertilizer does not flow to outsiders.

”Master Qian, as you know, the harem is not allowed to engage in politics. I can only point out from the side that whether this matter can finally reach master Qian's point of view, master Qian is an understanding person and should understand“ Zhao Yunshan's words here are very clear.

It's not so easy to ask the Empress Dowager to move. Zhao Yunshan didn't agree as well as before. Although Qian Jubao muttered in his heart, he didn't dare to neglect: "of course, the grass people naturally understand that if they can't get the official salt management right, the grass people will recognize it."

"That's good." Zhao Yunshan's words fell and yawned: "I'm tired. You go down first."

After Qian Jubao saluted Zhao Yunshan, he went out of the Empress Dowager's bedroom. In the blink of an eye, the most valuable things of their Qian family were sent out by him, but there was no sound at all. However, Qian Jubao still understood the reason that the child couldn't bear the wolf. He had to be calm and wait for news.

As soon as Qian Jubao left, Zhao Yunshan asked Xu to go to the emperor. She said that three days later, the Empress Dowager would invite all the concubines to the Empress Dowager's palace for a summer banquet.

The Empress Dowager is going to hold a summer banquet, which is a big event. In addition to the tributes from local officials, I heard that there are some rare dishes in the kitchen.

The concubines in the harem will never miss such a rare opportunity. Among the many concubines who attend the summer banquet, Qu lian'er is the most favored one.

In order to attend the summer banquet, Qu lian'er didn't eat much these two days. She asked Si Zhen, who was in charge of Si Zhen's room and Si Yi's room, to spend two days and two nights driving out a set of exquisite dance clothes. Because Qu lian'er was favored in the palace, the two Si Zhen didn't dare to neglect, so the other concubines had to find a way to prepare their own clothes for the summer banquet.

The most frugal one in this palace is queen Li Xizhao. She hasn't added a new dress for two years. She has always been very frugal. Even the headdress on the maid's head in the palace is made of the most common fluffy flowers. However, it is because she doesn't pay attention to wearing and has a lot of trivia in the back palace that her body looks like a 40 year old woman.

However, Bai Zhengming and Li Xizhao are very friendly and harmonious. There are always two days in seven days when they go to the Queen's bedroom. Over the years, they have never changed day after day. Therefore, even though Li Xizhao is thrifty and does not have a bright face, he is still respected by other concubines in the harem.

So naturally, Li Xizhao and Bai Zhengming are still sitting in the upper position at the summer banquet of the Empress Dowager.

The nearest position between Bai Zhengming and Li Xizhao is the position of the Empress Dowager. Not far away from each other, the lower position is Qu lianer's. the other concubines, who are not in favor, have to sit in the lower position. Although they are not at ease, they can only watch this.

The summer banquet was arranged with singing and dancing, and the dancers were all beautiful young women. Their graceful dancing posture attracted the envy of those out of favor concubines.

After the dancing girls went down, they heard the sound of bells. With the sound of gongs and drums, a woman came slowly from a distance wearing a red dance dress and stepping on the red carpet.

Her waist is half exposed on her dancing dress. The red gem on her waist collides with qulian'er as she walks. The red skirt is surrounded by a waist chain made of excellent pearls, which further sets off her beautiful posture.

No wonder Qu lian'er is so popular. Seeing her figure, the eyes of those unloved concubines burst out with admiration. They all feel inferior to her graceful figure.

Qu lian'er arrived at the center of the red carpet platform. Her smart body was dancing on the stage, like a butterfly flying among the flowers. The constant sound of jingle and hooping seemed to be integrated with the wind, making everyone's eyes unable to move away from her.

When she dances, she will walk to Bai Zhengming.

Qu lian'er is a smart person. She knows that even if the emperor loves her so much, she still takes photos with Li Xi. It's not only because of the prince, but also because Qu lian'er doesn't often bite the emperor's tongue. That's why the emperor dotes on her so much. To survive in this palace, she needs to have the ability to protect herself, The important thing is to learn to be smart and know who should and shouldn't be offended.

So after pouring a glass of wine for Bai Zhengming, Qu lianer also poured a glass for Li Xizhao.

After pouring the wine, Qu lian'er sits back in her own place. Zhao Yunshan sees all these things in her eyes. Lian'er is so sensible that if she can add a man and a half to the emperor, she will not be able to stand firmly in this palace in the future. It's a pity that no matter what method she uses, her stomach still doesn't move.

Zhao Yunshan also loves Qu lian'er. She has been with her for so many years, which makes her feel less lonely. According to her love for Yue's family, she can't watch her end up miserable.

If the Qian family can really help her in the future, as a backer of lian'er, Zhao Yunshan's thoughts will not be in vain.

When all the food was ready, Bai Zhengming took a bite, but it was tasteless.

Before waiting for the other concubines to speak, Zhao Yunshan frowned and said, "cook of the imperial dining room, I don't want to do it. I forgot to put salt in it."

"Come on, call the cook of the imperial dining room and get the punishment!" At Zhao Yunshan's command, the bodyguard on call brought the steward of the imperial dining room.
