Concubine Xian was so excited that she could not express it in words. She covered her mouth and knelt in front of the Queen Mother, sobbing.
The Su family will eventually be successful, and even if she is not the queen, she will eventually become the queen mother.
She only knelt for a while and then stood up, waiting for Eunuch Mu Ru to take out the next canonization edict.
However, no, the emperor just looked at Yu Wenhao. Then he patted his shoulder gently and said: "Go back to the palace!"
Today is just a formality, but in the future there will always be a conversation between the monarch, his ministers and his son.
Seeing that Emperor Ming Yuan was really going to leave, Concubine Xian couldn't help but call out, "Your Majesty, wait a minute!"
Emperor Ming Yuan looked back at her with gloomy eyes, "What else can you do?"
Concubine Xian saw the look in his eyes. Thinking of the slap she received that day, her heart froze, so she suppressed the words that were on her throat, lowered her eyes and said, "I want to accompany you for a while."
Princess, please return to the palace later."
Emperor Ming Yuan looked unclear and said: "That's right!"
After Yu Wenhao and the princes respectfully sent the Queen Mother, the Emperor and the empresses out, King Sun, King Huai and King Qi all surrounded Yu Wenhao and said congratulations.
King An stood under the locust tree, and the shadow of the locust tree just enveloped him. He curled up the corner of his mouth and smiled slightly, "Lao Wu, congratulations!"
Yu Wenhao looked at him with a cold look in his eyes, "Thank you, fourth brother."
Prince An said quietly: "After all, you did not get this by relying on your own ability. You must work harder in the future, otherwise, the position of the crown prince may be snatched away by someone."
Yu Wenhao didn't even have the desire to retaliate against these provocative words. He just said calmly: "Fourth brother is right."
King An lowered his eyes, but there was a sudden flash of cold light from the corner of his eye.
He turned around and told the people around him to ask for Princess An, and was about to say goodbye and return home.
After seeing off King An, Concubine Xian immediately pulled Yu Wenhao into the small study.
She looked extremely serious and cold, "Today you have to be named Crown Prince, but your mother and concubine have not been named Imperial Concubine. Can you guess what your father means?"
Yesterday, Aunt Xi told him what happened when he went to ask the abbot after Yuan Qingling gave birth. At that moment, he really hated Concubine Xian to the bone.
However, due to the gift of childbirth, he could only hide this anger deep in his heart. From now on, he would just fulfill his duties as a son, and he would never ask Lao Yuan to pay her respects again.
Now, after hearing her words and looking at her gloomy face, Yu Wenhao's anger rose again, and he said coldly: "Father is wise and makes his own decisions."
Concubine Xian said angrily: "What's the decision? If you are named the crown prince, your mother should be named the imperial concubine. This has been the case in all dynasties."
Yu Wenhao sneered, "Perhaps the emperor thinks that the mother and concubine are not virtuous enough to be crowned imperial concubines?"
Upon hearing this, Concubine Xian suddenly raised her head, and the blood on her face faded inch by inch. These words coming from Yu Wenhao's mouth were very serious.
She could barely find her voice, "Do you know what you're talking about?"
Yu Wenhao looked at her, "Mother, concubine, do you know what you were doing on the day Lao Yuan gave birth?"
Concubine Xian's face turned livid, "Everything my concubine does is for your own good. Yuan Qingling will only make you indulge in pleasure and make you live a life of inaction."
"Trying to murder my princess, for my own good?" Yu Wenhao felt chilled after saying it, "What's wrong with doing nothing? As parents, don't we all hope that our children can live a happy life? I am an emperor.
If our family can do nothing in the end, wouldn’t it be a great blessing?”
Concubine Xian was stunned. She looked at him and felt anger rushing in her heart. She was disappointed and heartbroken. "For so many years, Concubine Xian has been telling you that the Su family has declined. Your grandfather and your uncle have supported them at all costs."
You, all because you can ascend to the throne of God one day..."
Yu Wenhao sneered, "One day, I can ascend to the throne of God, and then the Su family will be granted the title of marquis, right? Then is everything they do for me, or for them? Besides, what does the decline of the Su family have to do with me? If
It is said that if I become the emperor, I can restore the prestige of the Su family. Now the imperial grandmother is my father's mother and a member of the Su family. My father has taken great care of the Su family in these years. Why haven't I seen the Su family regain its prestige?
Cheer up? So, the problem is not who should be the emperor, but who is useless in the Su family!"
Concubine Xian was greatly shocked, "You...how can you say that? Why is there no one available in the Su family? Your grandfather and your uncle are both serving in the court, why are they useless?"
"It's a job, but what's the difference between them and Jinghou? Jinghou knows that he is incompetent and resigned, but what about them? They only know how to make money in office. They'd better not support me, otherwise, once someone targets them,
It's my fault."
Concubine Xian fell down on the chair and was so shocked that she was speechless for a long time. She shouted angrily: "White-eyed wolf, white-eyed wolf, I gave birth to a white-eyed wolf. The Su family has supported you for many years, and now you have been granted the title of crown prince.
This will erase all their achievements, you are so heartless and mean!"
After hearing this, Yu Wenhao's eyes turned red and he said, "Scream, you can scream so that everyone can hear me. I, the crown prince, have just been ennobled, and my mother-in-law is eager to seek benefits for the Su family.
Let's see if the news spreads, whether it will be me, my mother and concubine, or the Su family who will suffer."
After he finished speaking, he slammed the door and went out.
Concubine Xian held her chest and was so angry that her heart and lungs ached. How could this happen? What she had hoped for for many years had come true, but why was it so different from what she expected?
She didn't get anything, and the Su family didn't get anything either.
She returned to the palace distraught.
Except for the female family members of Jinghou Mansion, everyone in Yuan Qingling's house has left.
The old lady held Yuan Qingling's hand, her eyes full of love and distress, "I have finally gotten through this."
Yuan Qingling was very tired today, having spent a whole day chatting with others. However, those things before were just for socializing, and now she can only say a few words of personal sincerity.
After coquettishly talking about the pain, Huang said, "You know how hard it is to be a parent, right? It was very painful for your mother to give birth to you. She has something to say to you. They were here just now, and it was hard to say this.
…”
"What do you want to say?" The old lady glanced coldly and asked in a stern voice.
Huang sat next to Yuan Qingling, with some excitement in her eyes, "Before coming here, your father said that you have made great contributions to the royal family this time, and the emperor will definitely ignore the past grudges. Now that the prince has been named the prince, you are
As a princess, she can be said to be able to speak in front of the emperor..."
"What on earth do you want to say?" the old lady asked angrily, raising her voice.
When Mrs. Huang heard that her mother-in-law was angry, she stopped paving the way and said sarcastically: "What I mean is that I still want to get an official position, and I don't want anything higher. Even if I get the reinstatement of my official position, that would be great."
Hearing this, the old lady laughed coldly, but did not say anything to her. She only said to Yuan Qingling: "You have a good rest. Grandma will come back in two days."
"Okay!" Yuan Qingling knew her grandmother's good intentions and didn't want her to listen to Huang's nonsense.
