Chapter 100 Her entry into the East Palace is a foregone conclusion
The next day, Concubine Wu was betrayed by the emperor.
Concubine Wu had always done a good job in serving the emperor. She served the emperor to her heart's content. When the emperor was happy, she mentioned Wu Xiyu.
"Sister Xi has been waiting for the prince for several years. Now that he has haircut this year, he is not young anymore. Can the emperor grant a marriage to sister Xi?" Concubine Wu noticed that the emperor was in a good mood, so she started chatting.
The emperor's dragon body has not been as good as before in recent years. Although he is not yet fifty, he is already showing his age.
As soon as he heard Concubine Wu's words, his eyes flashed with light, "I promised the prince that he would make the decision on his own marriage."
"But Sister Xi was wasting her time waiting for the prince. We can't keep her waiting and miss the best age for marriage." Concubine Wu hugged the emperor's arm and said coquettishly: "The emperor always loves his concubines the most.
, just agree to my concubine and let Sister Xi marry into the East Palace?"
When the emperor saw Wu Guifei's coquettish look, his heart softened. He softened his tone and said, "How can the prince's marriage be such a child's play? I promised the prince that he will decide the marriage himself, and you have no joke."
Furthermore, the prince acted steadily, and among his several sons, the one he was most satisfied with was the prince.
Although King An is an adult, he is too dandy, while the third prince is too young, only a few years old, has not been crowned king, and cannot shoulder the important responsibilities. This is why he attaches great importance to the prince.
Apart from not getting married and having children in time, the prince could not find any faults.
"Then we have to give Sister Xi an explanation, right? That girl is obsessed with the prince, and she told me that she is willing to do it even if she is a child..." When Concubine Wu said this, she lowered her eyebrows and said, "We can't really give in.
She became the prince's concubine. Sister Xi has always been proud. She said that she would rather be a child than go to the East Palace. This only shows that she likes the prince very much. Just like the concubine's heart that pleases the emperor, she wishes she could destroy his heart.
It’s best to leave everything in the hands of the emperor.”
She looked at the emperor lovingly, and the emperor's heart was warmed by her lingering eyes.
Concubine Wu noticed the change in the emperor's attitude. She snuggled into the emperor's arms and said, "Your Majesty, just be kind and considerate of Sister Xi's infatuation for the prince and fulfill her wish."
If the emperor was obsessed with beautiful men, he might not be able to stop Concubine Wu's tenderness at this moment.
He softened his heart for a moment and said: "The only way to become a crown princess is to make the prince willing to marry her. I will not grant a marriage to the prince."
Concubine Wu didn't have high expectations.
The emperor pampered her in everything, allowed her to do whatever she wanted, and even allowed her to ride on the concubine Shu's head, but there was only one thing: he never gave in on the prince's marriage.
Concubine Wu frowned: "Are we really going to let Sister Xi enter the East Palace as a child?"
As she spoke, her tears couldn't stop falling.
She has been in the palace for many years, and this is the second time she has shed tears in front of the emperor. She has always been arrogant and flamboyant, and although she occasionally has the coquettishness of a daughter, she rarely sheds tears.
The first time she cried was when she learned that she would never be able to conceive again.
When the emperor saw her crying, he felt uncomfortable: "If she really likes the prince so much, it would be good to let her enter the East Palace as a concubine. If she can please the prince, she may even hope to become the princess."
He could only go so far.
Concubine Wu felt relieved when she saw that she had achieved her goal.
The emperor's golden words meant that even if the prince did not agree, Sister Xi could still enter the East Palace and become a good concubine.
Although she missed out on the position of crown princess, Yi Xi's figure and appearance made it easy for the prince to sleep in her room every night.
As long as you are pregnant with the eldest grandson of the emperor, are you still worried that your sister Xi will not be able to get the position of crown princess?
Early the next morning, the news that Wu Xiyu was about to enter the East Palace spread throughout the harem.
As the male protagonist involved, Xiao Ce still learned the news from others.
He immediately went to see the saint.
The emperor was being interviewed at Suixin Hall. He knew that this matter should be discussed with the prince first, but according to the prince's temper, even if he was the emperor, he would not like him to interfere in the affairs of the East Palace and the backyard.
"I just want to know whether it is true that the Wu family entered the East Palace." Xiao Ce has always been steady, but this time he was disappointed.
He thought this was a tacit understanding, so in the past few years, some people had been forcing people into the East Palace. He always turned a blind eye or closed an eye. In fact, it was to appease his father, the emperor and his mother, as well as to appease the important officials in the court.
But he didn't want it to be like this. His father also forced Wu Xiyu to the East Palace. This was something he didn't expect.
"That girl is obsessed with you and you have to do it. Besides, behind her are the Zhao family and the imperial family. Wu's entry into the East Palace is a good thing for you, and it can also give you a lot of help. It's just a woman. If you like it, you can
Put it in front of you, if you don't like it, put it away, it's not a big deal." The emperor said lightly.
Xiao Ce pursed his thin lips tightly and did not answer.
When the emperor saw him like this, he knew that the prince was angry.
"I think she is a good childbearer. You have no children. After the Wu family enters the East Palace, she may be able to add children to the royal family. This is a good thing. In the future, when you ascend the throne, there will be three thousand in the harem. One more woman is not much, so why should you care?
?I said that I will not interfere with your marriage, and this does not constitute a violation of the original promise." The emperor said softly.
Xiao Ce also understood that the matter was a foregone conclusion. Wu Xiyu's entry into the East Palace would not change once his father Jinsou opened his mouth.
In Changqiu Palace, Concubine Shu also received the news.
"It must have been the imperial concubine who was blowing pillows in front of the emperor, so the emperor allowed Wu Xiyu to enter the East Palace as a concubine." Nianyun was purely complaining for the imperial concubine.
It is clear that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the biological son of Empress Shu, but as a result there is a new bride in the East Palace, the biological mother of Empress Shu is still known from the mouth of an outsider. How can this make Empress Shu feel so embarrassed?
"After so many years, how has it not been like this? Whatever Concubine Wu wants, as soon as she asks, the emperor will grant it. Concubine Wu's favor is unmatched by other concubines." Concubine Shu didn't know she was comforting herself,
Still working on Jie Nian Yun.
She's used to it.
The emperor likes Concubine Wu's charming and flamboyant character, but does not like her boring temperament. If she had not been lucky enough to give birth to A Ce, I am afraid she would not even have a chance to see the emperor.
When Nianyun saw Concubine Shu's obscure eyes, she felt sad in her heart: "This servant has made a mistake. Please be at ease, Madam. Even if the Wu family enters the East Palace, as long as His Highness the Crown Prince doesn't like it..."
"But everyone says that A Ce is fond of Miss Wu. How can a man's heart be controlled by others?" Concubine Shu was in a low mood: "Forget it, let's not mention this matter. This matter is a foregone conclusion and I can't change it.
, just try to accept it.”
I'm afraid that in the future Wu Xiyu will be pampered by A Ce and become the crown princess and the grandson of the emperor, and then Wu Guifei will show off her power in front of her.
She had been oppressed by Concubine Wu for half her life, and she didn't want to be bullied by Concubine Wu in the end.
This is Concubine Shu's worry, and of course it is also Nian Yun's worry.
