The Queen Mother got down to the topic and said: "Now that the crown prince has been chosen, one of the concerns of the Queen Mother has finally been settled. However, as the saying goes, the mother is more valuable than the son. We in the Northern Tang Dynasty have always had the rule of rewarding concubines for their breath. Now that you have established a prince,
If you don’t name yourself a worthy concubine, it will inevitably cause the outside world to speculate that you are undecided.”
Emperor Ming Yuan smiled and said: "Don't worry, Queen Mother, I have my own opinion on this matter, so don't worry about it."
The Queen Mother looked at him and said, "Did you tell the Queen Mother because she obstructed the birth?"
Emperor Ming Yuan glanced at the screen again and said: "Before, after, and even during the birth of the Crown Princess, she advocated keeping the son and leaving the mother. Fortunately, the Crown Princess was lucky enough to survive and make the fifth daughter her daughter.
Prince, of course I know the rules of our ancestors and want to consecrate his mother-in-law as well, but I threw the Holy Grail in the Ancestral Temple for three days in a row, and all the ancestors did not agree to consecrate her."
The Queen Mother was startled, "Is that so?"
Emperor Ming Yuan said: "Mother, don't worry, the virtuous concubine won't care about this. After all, it was her idea to leave the mother and keep the son. Now the son is more valuable than the mother, and the same reason applies."
The Queen Mother smiled bitterly, it would be better if she really didn't care.
"What on earth did you say about removing the mother and keeping the child?" The Queen Mother knew that Concubine Xian caused trouble when she gave birth that day, but she didn't know exactly what she did.
Emperor Ming Yuan was a little surprised, "Mother, this matter has been spread throughout the palace, don't you know?"
He thought that the old lady knew about it, after all, it was no longer a secret. He didn't see the old lady deal with it, so he thought that the old lady was thinking about the relationship between uncle and nephew as usual.
"Has it spread everywhere? Then why don't I know about it?" The Queen Mother became more and more confused.
Aunt Hu glanced at the Queen Mother in panic. Everyone in the palace knew about the false report of the Queen Mother's decree, but all news from the Queen Mother's side had to be filtered by her. Therefore, the Queen Mother only knew that Concubine Xian was making trouble in the delivery room.
For a moment, I don’t know how serious it is or what exactly happened.
When the Queen Mother saw this, she knew that there was something else that she didn't know, so she shouted sharply, "Aunt Hu, is there something you're hiding from me? Tell me quickly!"
Aunt Hu was so frightened that she knelt down with a thud and said, "Your Majesty, please forgive me. I didn't mean to hide anything. However, the Concubine Xian has repeatedly warned me not to inform the Queen Mother, lest she become angry and harm myself."
The Queen Mother was so angry that she glared at the screen and said to Aunt Hu: "Speak quickly!"
Aunt Hu did not dare to hide anything at the moment and told the Queen Mother exactly what happened that day.
When the Queen Mother heard that Concubine Xian had falsely conveyed her intention to leave her son alone, she almost lost her breath. Emperor Ming Yuan comforted her for a long time before telling her to calm down.
"Emperor, you go first!" The Queen Mother gritted her teeth and sent Emperor Ming Yuan away.
Emperor Ming Yuan stood up and left, yawning and left.
Concubine Xian was hiding inside. After hearing what Emperor Ming Yuan and Aunt Hu said, she was panicked and confused. She knew it was because of Yuan Qingling's birth.
