"I'm telling everyone in Kunning Palace to be more careful when speaking and doing things. I don't want to get into any more trouble right now," the Queen said sternly.
"Yes, your Majesty." The palace attendant responded cautiously and left the main hall.
"Your Majesty, the Marquis of Wuchang is outside asking for an audience." The servant's voice came from outside the palace.
When the Marquis of Wuchang came in, he saw the queen's eyebrows slightly raised, as if she was in a good mood. After saluting, he asked directly, "I wonder what Yufan gave to the empress today?"
"You came just in time. Originally, I wanted to let you know in two days. Now that you are here, let's take a look."
After seeing those things, Wuchang Hou was shocked. After a moment, he said with some confusion, "If this was sent back by Yufan's order, why didn't he tell the ministers about it?"
"You also feel something is wrong? Obviously, this is what Prince Rui means! This is a warning! A warning to me and the Leng family!"
"Mother, what do you think?"
"Yu Fan is following King Rui now. Many things will naturally be decided by King Rui. Now that you have seen things, you should think about how to clean up the house as soon as possible. Is the eldest prince defeated?
, but our Leng family is still here! I am still the queen of Daqing! As long as I don’t make big mistakes, then no matter which prince ascends to the throne in the future, I will be the empress dowager! The Leng family is still the queen.
The palace’s natal family is the in-laws of the Daqing royal family!”
"What do you mean, empress?"
"My intention is not important, what is important is the emperor's will! As long as I make no big mistakes in this life, then the emperor cannot depose the queen! Even if I die, she is still the queen of Daqing, and she must have the respect of the queen.
Honor and posthumous title!"
After the queen finished speaking, she turned to look at the Marquis of Wuchang. At this time, she had a cold and beautiful face. Compared with the haggard look of the previous days, she seemed to be a different person! This frightened the Marquis of Wuchang.
Besides, what’s more, it’s gratification and joy!
The Queen can cheer up again. Nothing excites him more than this news!
"In your opinion, who instigated this assassination?"
"There are only two people who can set up eyes in this palace. One is Concubine Hui, and the other is the emperor! However, according to the emperor's current regard for Prince Rui, he will soon go to Jiangnan to control the flood.
Look, it’s definitely not him who gave the order. Then, there will only be Concubine Hui left!”
"But no matter how powerful Concubine Hui is, she is only in the palace. Could it be that she is King Qin outside the palace?" Wuchang Hou answered.
"Hmph! I don't care who she cooperates with, but since she dared to bring this idea to my head, then she is totally wrong! It was a waste of my years of promotion and trust in her. It turns out that
He’s such a ruthless person!”
"Mother, what do you think is this Concubine Hui?"
"Hmph! Didn't the Emperor just consecrate a noble Jing? That's just right. Let's let the aunt and nephew fight first." The queen seemed to have thought of something, "I have also seen that Wang Jingshu. He is dignified and elegant.
, how could she be willing to enter the palace as a concubine? Didn’t it say that King Qin had always been very close to her before? "
"Back to your Majesty, the rumors outside are indeed true. I heard that King Qin visited the post house several times, and each time he brought a lot of gifts."
"Is that really so? Then, wouldn't it be a pity if I don't take advantage of such a good opportunity?"
"Empress, what do you mean?"
"You don't need to worry about the affairs in the palace. Clean up the Wuchang Marquis Mansion as soon as possible. Why did you come into the palace now? Is there something wrong?" The queen then remembered that he came into the palace on his own initiative, and he did not
No edict has been issued.
The Marquis of Wuchang hesitated for a moment, then lowered his head and said, "It's okay, Madam. I just heard from my daughter-in-law that your complexion is not very good, and I am worried about it, so I came to the palace to have a look. I originally thought of letting my wife come, but
She hasn't been particularly agile recently, and as you know, Wei Chen was afraid that she would cause trouble again, so he came in person."
"Well, this Su Lian has her heart in mind. I'm fine with you. Please step aside."
"Yes, Wei Chen resigns."
The queen had arranged these things and seemed to be in a good mood. After having a bowl of lotus seed porridge, she was escorted to the garden for a walk.
"Your Majesty, your Majesty has approved it. This is what I ordered my servant to present to you."
After opening it, the queen glanced at the red approval on it, with a smile on her face and asked, "What else did the emperor say?"
"Back to the empress, the emperor said that you are the empress and the lord of the six palaces. It is up to you to handle such matters. He also said that he would like you to take good care of your health as soon as possible. The huge harem is still waiting for you.
You come out and take care of things."
A smile appeared on the corner of the Queen's lips, "Aren't there Concubines Hui and Hua now co-managing the Sixth Palace? I think nothing is wrong with me."
As soon as the servant heard this, he knew that his master was in a good mood, and he also guessed what the master wanted to hear at this moment, so he continued, "Back to your Majesty, I heard that Concubine Hua asked for forgiveness after the incident with Princess Qingwan last time.
The emperor took back the right to co-manage the Sixth Palace, and she has never mentioned it again. She has always been claiming to be ill. And Concubine Hui?"
"How is Concubine Hui?"
The chamberlain glanced at the master carefully and said flatteringly, "Even if Concubine Hui has the power to co-manage the Sixth Palace, she only has the title of co-manager! Seeing that King Qin is about to get married, the person who is organizing the prince's marriage has no other choice but to do it.
If the chamberlain doesn’t have to worry about it, wouldn’t he have to bother coming to you?”
The queen nodded, yes! She had thought about King Qin's upcoming wedding. If she, the queen, never showed up, I'm afraid there would be no idea what kind of rumors would spread outside!
When King Rui got married, although she was not in charge, she still drank tea from Su Xiyue's mother-in-law after the wedding. If she didn't take charge of King Qin's wedding, wouldn't it mean that the people below would think that there was no one in the palace?
The queen?
"Mother, do you see this?"
"Let's go, go back to the palace first, draft a decree for me, and send it to Concubine Li's palace immediately."
"Yes, empress."
In the evening of that day, King Rui and Su Xiyue received the news.
"How to say? But what's the good news? Otherwise, why are the corners of your lips slightly raised?"
Prince Rui stiffened his face subconsciously and turned to look at her, "Where is it?"
Su Xiyue chuckled lightly, "Tell me quickly."
"The Queen issued a decree today and promoted Concubine Li to the rank of Concubine Li. She directly passed over the noble concubine and was promoted to Concubine Li."
"Oh? What does the Queen mean by this? Why are you raising Concubine Li's status at this moment? Are you trying to win her over?" Su Xiyue's voice rose slightly, and she was obviously in a very good mood!
